Overview
Features
The E1 DSU/CSU acts as an interface between the E1
digital network (as specified in CCITT standards G.703
and G.704) and the customer premises equipment,
converting signals received from the DTE (Data Terminal
Equipment) to signals that can be transmitted over E1
lines. Typical applications include Local Area Network
(LAN)/Wide Area Network (WAN) interconnection,
shared access to network-based services, and fractional E1
network applications.
The E1 DSU/CSU optimizes network performance
with a wide range of features such as the following:
•
Software configuration menu displayed via a liquid
crystal display (LCD) to permit quick and easy
operation and elimination of complicated hardware
strapping.
•
•
Local or remote configuration and operation
flexibility.
The E1 DSU/CSU series of products consists of a
Model 3172 DSU/CSU (2-port) and a Model 3174
DSU/CSU (4-port). Differences between these models are
discussed where applicable throughout this guide.
Several loopback capabilities and test pattern
generators.
•
•
•
DTE drop/insert capability.
Alarm message display/print capability
.
Front panel emulation via Windows-based Front
Panel Emulation software.
•
Network management provided through
industry-standard Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP).

ACCULINK 317x E1 DSU/CSU
The E1 DSU/CSU can be managed by any industry-
standard SNMP manager. The company provides an
SNMP application that runs on a Hewlett-Packard HP
OpenView network management platform. For more
information, refer to the ACCULINK 3100 Series Open
DTE Drop/Insert Interface
The DTE Drop/Insert interface is compatible with the
signal format of CCITT Recommendation G.703 and the
frame structure of CCITT Recommendation G.704. This
interface allows DTEs/PBXs to share the E1 network with
other high-speed equipment.
Management Application for HP OpenView User
’s Guide.
The E1 DSU/CSU supports the following MIBs:
•
MIB II – Defines the general objects for use in
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP) internets and provides general
information about the E1 DSU/CSU. MIB II is
backward-compatible with MIB I.
Alarm Message Capability
The E1 DSU/CSU can be attached, either locally or
remotely, to an ASCII terminal or printer to display or
print alarm messages. The communications (COM) port
can be used as the destination for Alarm Set and Alarm
Clear messages. This enables an ASCII terminal or printer
to monitor the E1 DSU/CSU for alarm conditions. Alarms
can also be displayed on a PC that is using a terminal
emulation package.
•
•
DS1/E1 MIB – Defines objects for managing E1
interfaces and supports the network and DTE
Drop/Insert interfaces on the E1 DSU/CSU.
RS-232-like MIB – Defines objects for managing
RS-232-type interfaces (e.g., RS-422, RS-423, etc.)
and supports synchronous data ports (POR s 1–4)
T
Front Panel Emulation
and management communication ports (AUX and
COM ports) on the E1 DSU/CSU.
The E1 DSU/CSU offers functionality through Front
Panel Emulation software that is similar to that provided
by the E1 DSU/CSU front panel. The E1 DSU/CSU can
either be locally or remotely attached to a 386 or higher
personal computer (PC) that has at least four megabytes
(MB) of random-access memory (RAM). (An external
modem is required for remote attachment.) A copy of the
E1 DSU/CSU front panel appears on the PC. The
functionality of the front panel is available by clicking on
the function keys with the mouse rather than by pressing
keys from the actual front panel. For more information,
refer to Appendix G, Front Panel Emulation.
•
Generic-Interface Extension MIB – An extension to
MIB II that defines additional objects for control of
generic interfaces in MIB II. It supports control of
tests on the E1 and synchronous data interfaces that
are not supported by other MIBs.
•
Enterprise MIB – Defines objects that are unique to
Paradyne devices.
Two link layer protocols, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)
and Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP), are supported for
connection to an external SNMP manager or network
device (e.g., a router).
SNMP Management Support
The SNMP manager or network device can be directly
connected to the communications (COM) port. An
SNMP is a network management protocol that is used
to monitor network performance and status, and to report
alarms (i.e., traps). To function, SNMP requires a manager
consisting of a software program housed within a
workstation or PC; an agent consisting of a software
program housed within a device (e.g., the E1 DSU/CSU);
and a Management Information Base (MIB) consisting of
a database of managed objects.
external LAN Adapter can be connected to either the
COM port or the auxiliary (AUX) port to provide Ethernet
connectivity. Also, the E1 DSU/CSU can be daisy chained
together by connecting the COM port of one device to the
AUX port of the other, providing SNMP connectivity.
The SNMP management system can communicate to
the E1 DSU/CSU remotely through the Facility Data Link
(FDL) or the synchronous data port’s Embedded Data
Link (EDL). FDL provides an in-band channel for
performance and control signals on the network interface.
Users of the external SNMP manager can issue “Get”
and “Set” commands to an object in the SNMP database
maintained by the E1 DSU/CSU.
It uses the spare bit S in time-slot zero as defined in
a4
CCITT standard G.704. EDL provides the ability to detect
and synchronize on a framing pattern, provides cyclic
redundancy checking (CRC), and maintains near-end and
far-end performance statistics.

Installation
If the self-test fails, the Failed screen appears for
five seconds. The Fail LED lights, and an
eight-digit failure code (nnnnnnnn) is displayed
for use by service personnel to determine the
cause of the self-test failure. The E1 DSU/CSU
continues to try to operate. If you are in doubt
about the results of the self-test, use the Self-Test
Health command to display the status of this test
(see the Self-Test Health section in Chapter 4,
Maintenance).
Power-Up Self-Test
After you connect the E1 DSU/CSU to a power source,
the unit performs the power-up self-test to ensure that it is
in good working order. The E1 DSU/CSU performs this
test on itself upon power-up or after a device reset unless
it has been disabled by the Self-Test configuration option
(see Appendix C, Configuration Options).
The self-test includes a basic processor test, a limited
memory test, a code checksum test, and basic verification
tests of the internal components. The front panel LCD
displays the progress and pass/fail status of these
power-up tests.
Self-Test:

Setting the IP Address
The IP address is the address used by the SNMP
manager to access the device. For devices using PPP, the
IP address can be negotiated if the network device (e.g.,
router or SNMP manager) supports such negotiation. The
IP address is composed of four fields with three digits per
field (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).
NOTE
Steps 8 and 9 describe the
process for entering an IP
address. This process applies to
any IP address.
The IP address is set for the COM port or the AUX
port (with LAN Adapter or daisy chain), depending on
which one has been chosen as the SNMP communications
link. The example below assumes that an IP address of
010.155.111.222 is being set for the COM port. You can
use the same principles to assign any value (between 000
and 255 for each digit field) to either port.
8. Press F2 (Edit) to edit the IP address. You have the

1. Complete the Network E1 Interface and the DTE
Drop/Insert Interface tables (unless the DTE
Drop/Insert interface is disabled) as shown in the
examples in Figures 3-7 and 3-9.
Allocate DS0 channels on the Network or DTE
Drop/Insert interface to particular data ports.
Specify whether time-slot 16 (TS16) is reserved for
signaling information.
2. Using the worksheets shown in Figures 3-10
and 3-11, circle the configuration options needed
to implement the logical channel configuration.
Clear (deallocate) all DS0 channels from the
Network, DTE Drop/Insert, or data port interface.
Map data from one port to another.
Once you have completed the worksheets, enter this
information using the procedures in the Allocating Data
Ports section on page 3-28. Configuration options are
listed in Appendix C.
NOTE
If TS16 is reserved for signaling,
D16 will automatically be
assigned to N16, and DTE DS0
channels allocated to the network
interface must be connected to
the corresponding channel (e.g.,
D1 to N1, D2 to N2, etc.).

Operation
The E1 DSU/CSU automatically falls back to the
Selecting the Timing Source
secondary clock when a failure of the selected primary
clock is detected. If a secondary clock failure is detected,
the E1 DSU/CSU falls back to its internal clock.
The E1 DSU/CSU provides the ability to select a
primary clock (timing) source that is used to synchronize
all of the E1 and data port interfaces on the E1 DSU/CSU.
The clock for each interface is at the appropriate rate for
that interface (e.g., 2.048 Mbps for the E1 interfaces, the
configured port rate for the data ports) and is independent
of the primary clock rate. This means that the primary
clock rate and the E1 DSU/CSU interface rates may be
different.
The clock source configuration options enable you to
select either the Network E1 interface, a synchronous data
port, the internal clock, the DTE Drop/Insert interface, or
an external clock. If external clocking is selected, you
must use the clock rate configuration option to specify the
clock rate. Figure 3-12 shows some common clocking
configurations. Two sample procedures for configuring
timing are given in the following sections, Configuring for
Network Timing and Configuring for External Timing. For
more information on configuration options, refer to

Network aggregate registers (NET) are status registers
that collect performance data for the previous 24-hour
period. Registers shown on the front panel LCD are listed
in Table 4-3. Aggregate data is updated in 15-minute
intervals. After 15 minutes, the current interval is rolled
over into a set of accumulator registers that represent the
previous 96 15-minute intervals for the register. An
interval total of how many of the 96 registers contain
valid data is also kept, as well as a 24-hour total for each
accumulator register.

Network port performance is continuously monitored
and maintained in internal memory registers when the port
interface is configured to use EDL. The E1 DSU/CSU
maintains two sets of port registers for each synchronous
data port: far-end port registers and near-end port
registers. These registers are status registers that collect
performance data for the previous 8-hour period.
Registers shown on the front panel LCD are listed in
Table 4-3. Port data is updated in 15-minute intervals.
After 15 minutes, the current interval is rolled over into a
set of accumulator registers that represent the previous 32
15-minute intervals for the register. An interval total of
how many of the 32 registers contain valid data is also
kept, as well as a 8-hour total for each accumulator
register.

Data Port Rate (appears when using the block channel allocation method, or when a synchronous data port is assigned
to another synchronous data port). Designates the data rate for the port. Available selections depend on the current base
rate configured for the port. The factory default for Nx64 is 384 kbps, and for Nx56 is 336 kbps.
NOTE: This configuration option does not appear if the individual channel allocation method (Chan) is selected using the
Assign By configuration option.
NOTE: If time-slot 16 is reserved for signaling, the highest port rate (1984 or 1736) does not appear.
NOTE: Changing this configuration option from one rate to another deallocates all DS0 channels assigned to either the
Network E1 interface or the DTE Drop/Insert interface.
NOTE: When you enable EDL, 8 kbps of the total bandwidth allocated for this port is not available to the synchronous
data port. For example, if you select 256 kbps and EDL is enabled, only 248 kbps are available.
NOTE: When you enable EDL for a synchronous data port and the clock source (either primary or secondary) is set to
that synchronous data port, the external device must provide a clock of 8 kbps less than the expected data port
rate. For example, if you select 64 kbps, the external clock source must supply a 56 kbps clock signal.
NOTE: For the 3174 DSU/CSU there is a hardware limitation that limits the combined bandwidth used by Port1 and
Port3 to a total of 2048 kbps and the combined bandwidth used by Port2 and Port4 to 2048 kbps. Thus, when
entering this menu, the rate choices are limited due to this constraint. This limitation only occurs in configurations
mapping a port to a port or when mapping ports to the DTE Drop/Insert interface and to the network.

AUX Port Interface
NOTE
The Auxiliary (AUX) port connects to the SNMP LAN
Adapter for SNMP applications, or to another E1
DSU/CSU’s COM port for daisy chain connectivity. (The
SNMP LAN Adapter includes the cable that is needed
to attach it to the E1 DSU/CSU.) The AUX port
connector is an 8-pin modular connector (Table D-3).
For daisy-chaining an AUX port
to a COM port, a customer
supplied, 8-pin-to-8-pin, straight-
through cable is required and
the appropriate configuration
options (Com Use and Aux Use)
must be set to Daisy. Whenever
the cable is connected or
disconnected, you should
change the Daisy selection to
ensure that the correct
parameters have been
negotiated for the link layer.

COM Port Interface
NOTE
The COM port connects to a PC for front panel
emulation, to an ASCII terminal or printer for alarms, to a
network device (e.g., a router) for SNMP applications, to
the SNMP LAN Adapter for SNMP applications, or to
another E1 DSU/CSU’s AUX port for daisy chain
connectivity. (The SNMP LAN Adapter includes the
cable that is needed to attach it to the E1 DSU/CSU.)
The COM port connector is an 8-position keyed modular
connector (Table D-4). The data signals on this port are
referenced to a DTE interface.
For daisy-chaining an AUX port
to a COM port, a customer
supplied, 8-pin-to-8-pin, straight-

Overview
This appendix describes the Management Information
Base (MIB) objects that are supported by the E1
DSU/CSU and provides a correlation between front panel
commands and MIB objects (Table E-1).
System Group Supported.
Interface

Supported for the network
interface, the DTE Drop/Insert
interface, the synchronous data
ports, the COM port, and the AUX
port. Interface statistics (counters)
apply to any port (COM or AUX),
whichever is defined as the SNMP
management link.
Management Information
Base (MIB) II (RFC 1213)
The objects defined by MIB II are organized into
10 different groups. The E1 DSU/CSU implements only
those groups where the semantics of the group are
Address

protocol is not supported by the
E1 DSU/CSU.
System Group – “sysServices” Object
(system 7)
Transmission Supported on the E1 interfaces
Group
using the DS1/E1 MIB. Supported
on the synchronous data ports
using the RS-232-like MIB.
Supported on the COM and AUX
ports using the RS-232-like MIB.
This object provides a value which indicates the set of
services that are potentially offered by the E1 DSU/CSU.
Only the following values are supported by the E1
DSU/CSU.
SNMP Group Supported.
•
•
•
•
physical(1) – Layer 1 functionality for all
interfaces.
System Group, MIB II
datalink/subnetwork(2) – Layer 2 functionality
(SLIP, PPP) for the COM and AUX ports.
The System Group objects are fully supported by the
E1 DSU/CSU. The following sections provide
clarification for objects contained in the System Group
where it is not otherwise clear how the object definition in
MIB II is related to the E1 DSU/CSU. Objects not
mentioned are supported as stated in the MIB.
internet(4) – Layer 3 functionality (IP) for all
management links.
end-to-end(8) – Layer 4 functionality (UDP) for all
management links.
Therefore, set this object to 15 (the sum
of 1 + 2 + 4 + 8).
System Group – “sysDescr” Object (system 1)
This object provides the full name and version
identification for the system hardware and software. This
object displays the following string:
Interface Group, MIB II
The Interface Group consists of an object indicating the
number of interfaces supported by the unit and an
interface table containing an entry for each interface. The
E1 DSU/CSU provides an entry in the interface table for
the network interface, the DTE Drop/Insert interface, each
of the synchronous data ports, the COM port, and the
AUX port, if they apply. The following sections provide
clarification for objects contained in the Interface Group
where it is not clear how the object definition in MIB II is
related to the E1 DSU/CSU.
E1 DSU/CSU; model xxxx-xx-xxx; S/W Release:
yy.yy.yy; H/W CCA1: zzzz-zzz; H/W CCA2: zzzz-zzz;
Serial number: sssssss.
Where:
xxxx-xx-xxx represents the full model
number of the unit.
yy.yy.yy represents the software revision
number of the unit.
zzzz-zzz represents the hardware
revision numbers of the unit.
Interface Group – “ifNumber” Object
(interfaces 1)
sssssss represents the serial number of
the unit.
This variable contains the maximum number of MIB II
supported interfaces possible across the 31xx Series
product line (9). This is different from the MIB
description, which is defined as the number of interfaces
on the particular device. This change allows the use of the
same ifIndexes across all 31xx Series models.

3170-A2-GB20-20
Interface Group – “ifIndex” Object (ifEntry 1)
Interface Group – “ifDescr” Object (ifEntry 2)
This object provides the index into the ifTable and
typically into tables in other MIBs also. The values of the
ifIndex object do not vary between models even though
not all indexes are supported for a particular model. When
an unsupported index is accessed, “noSuchName” is
returned.
This object provides the textual information about the
interface. Each interface displays a text string as shown
below:
Network E1:
DTE E1:
COM:
“Network E1. E1 DSU/CSU,
Hardware Version: [CCA number
for the CSU board]”.
The following are the values of the ifIndexes for all

ACCULINK 317x E1 DSU/CSU
Interface Group – “ifMtu” Object (ifEntry 4)
Interface Group – “ifOperStatus” Object
(ifEntry 8)
This object identifies the largest datagram that can be
sent or received on the interface. It is applicable only to
the interface configured as the SNMP management link.
This object is zero for all other interfaces.
This object specifies the current operational state of the
interface. The value of this object for each interface is
defined as follows:
Network E1:
The interface is up(1) when no
alarm conditions exist.
Interface Group – “ifSpeed” Object (ifEntry 5)
This object provides the interface’s current bandwidth
in bits per second. The value of this object for each
interface is specified as follows:
The interface is down(2) when an
alarm condition is active.
The interface is testing(3) when a
test is active on the interface.
E1 Interfaces:
2,048,000 bps.
DTE
Drop/Insert:
The interface is up(1) when no
alarm conditions exist and the
interface is enabled.
COM and
AUX:
The currently configured data rate
for the port.
The interface is down(2) when an
alarm condition is active or the
interface is disabled.
Data Ports:
The currently configured data rate
for the port when the port is
allocated to one of the E1
interfaces or to another port as a
backup. If the port is not allocated
the data rate is defined as zero.
The interface is testing(3) when a
test is active on the interface.
COM Port:
AUX Port:
Data Ports:
When configured as an SNMP
management link, up and down are
based on the current state of the
link layer protocol. Otherwise, the
interface is always up(1).
Interface Group – “ifAdminStatus” Object
(ifEntry 7)
The interface is never in the
testing(3) state.
This object specifies the desired state (configuration)
of the interface. This object is supported only for the
COM port. It provides the ability to switch between using
the port for SNMP or ASCII operations. The value of this
object will not affect the state of any of the interfaces on
the E1 DSU/CSU other than the COM port. Only the
following values are supported by the E1 DSU/CSU:
When configured as an SNMP
management link, up and down are
based on the current state of the
link layer protocol. Otherwise, the
interface is always down(2).
The interface is never in the
testing(3) state.
•
up(1) – The SNMP management link is active on
the COM port.
The interface is up(1) when the
port is assigned to the E1 interface
or another data port as a backup,
and both CTS and DSR are ON.
•
testing(3) – The SNMP management link is inactive
on the COM port; the COM port can be used for
proprietary ASCII functions.
The interface is down(2) when the
port is unassigned, or either CTS
or DSR is OFF.
The interface is testing(3) when a
test is active on the interface.

3170-A2-GB20-20
Interface Group – “ifLastChange” Object
(ifEntry 9)
IP Group, MIB II
The IP Group objects are supported by the E1
DSU/CSU for all data paths which currently are
configured to carry IP data to or from the E1 DSU/CSU,
including the COM, AUX, EDL, and FDL. All of the
objects in the IP Group other than the IP Address
Translation table are fully supported. The IP Address
Translation table (ipNetToMediaTable) does not apply to
the E1 DSU/CSU and will be empty (i.e., have zero
entries). The following sections provide clarification for
objects contained in the IP Group when it is not clear how
the object definition in MIB II is related to the E1
DSU/CSU.
This object contains the value of “sysUpTime” at the
time the interface entered its current operational state. For
the E1 DSU/CSU, this object is only updated for the “up”
and “down” states. This is done since the “testing” state is
not mutually exclusive with the “up” and “down” states.
Interface Group – Input Counters
(objects ifEntry 10 to ifEntry 15)
These objects collect statistics on the data received by
the COM port and the AUX port when these ports are
configured as SNMP management links. For interfaces
that are not configured as an SNMP management link,
these statistics are not provided and an error status is
returned if access is attempted. The objects used to collect
input statistics are listed below:
IP Group – “ipForwarding” Object (ip 1)
This object specifies whether the unit is acting as an IP
gateway in respect to the forwarding of a datagram
received by, but not addressed to, this unit. Only the
following value is supported by the E1 DSU/CSU.
•
•
•
•
•
•
ifInOctets (ifEntry 10)
ifInUcastPkts (ifEntry 11)
ifInNUcastPkts (ifEntry 12)
ifInDiscards (ifEntry 13)
ifInErrors (ifEntry 14)
•
forwarding(1) – The unit is acting as a gateway.
IP Group – “ipAddrTable” Object (ip 20)
The address table is supported by the E1 DSU/CSU.
ifInUnknownProtos (ifEntry 15)
IP Group – “ipAdEntAddr” Object
(ipAddrEntry 1)
Interface Group – Output Counters
(objects ifEntry 16 to ifEntry 21)
The ipAdEntAddr object is an IP address supported by
the device and serves as the index to the address table.
Since indexes for tables must be unique, only one ifIndex
may be displayed for each IP address supported by the
device. If you have configured the same IP address for
multiple interfaces or for default IP addresses, you will
not see all interfaces that support a particular IP address
upon display of the ipAddrTable.
These objects collect statistics on the data received by
the COM port and the AUX port when these ports are
configured as SNMP management links. For interfaces
that are not configured as an SNMP management link,
these statistics are not provided and an error status is
returned if access is attempted. The objects used to collect
output statistics are listed below:
•
•
•
•
•
•
ifOutOctets (ifEntry 16)
ifOutUcastPkts (ifEntry 17)
ifOutNUcastPkts (ifEntry 18)
ifOutDiscards (ifEntry 19)
ifOutErrors (ifEntry 20)
ifOutQLen (ifEntry 21)
IP Group – “ipAdEntIfIndex” Object
(ipAddrEntry 2)
For some address table entries, the ipAdEntIfIndex
object may have a value greater than ifNumber. In these
cases, the ipAdEntIfIndex refers to a proprietary interface
which is not currently implemented by the interface group
of MIB II.

ACCULINK 317x E1 DSU/CSU
The following read-only objects must not be specified
in the set PDU used to add a route.
IP Group – “ipRouteTable” Object (ip 21)
The routing table used by the E1 DSU/CSU is
supported as a read/write table. Entries in this table may
be added, deleted, or changed. You should exercise great
caution when adding or modifying routes in the
ipRoutingTable. In general, it should not be necessary to
add or modify routes in the E1 DSU/CSU. In those cases
where it is deemed necessary, the routes should only be
added to the connected device (i.e., the device closest to
the destination). Internal routing mechanisms will
propagate the route to the other devices.
•
•
•
ipRouteProto – Set to netmgmt(3) by software.
ipRouteAge – Defaulted to 999.
ipRouteInfo – Set to OBJECT IDENTIFIER {0, 0}
since it is unused.
IP Group – “ipRouteDest” Object
(ipRouteEntry 1)
An existing route may be effectively deleted by setting
the ipRouteType object to “invalid” for the entry to be

fields in the desired entry (indexed by ipRouteDest) of the
routing table. A new route may be added by specifying
values for a table entry for which the index
The ipRouteDest object serves as the index to the
routing table. Since indexes for tables must be unique,
only one route per destination may appear in the table. To
ensure that no duplicate destinations appear in the routing
table, the ipRouteDest object of the ipRouteTable is
treated as described in RFC 1354 (IP Forwarding Table
MIB):

a value of 0.0.0.0 is considered a default route. This object
may not take a Multicast (Class D) address value. Any
assignment (implicit or otherwise) of an instance of this
object to a value x must be rejected if the bitwise
group of minimal objects. These variable bindings must
be contained in a single Protocol Data Unit (PDU). The

instance of the ipForwardMask object is not equal to x.”
ipRouteIfIndex
The following objects are defaulted if not specified in
the set PDU used to add a route.
IP Group – “ipRouteIfIndex” Object
(ipRouteEntry 1)
•
•
ipRouteMetric1 – Defaulted to 1 hop.
When the routing table is displayed, the ipRouteIfIndex
object for some entries may have a value greater than
ifNumber. In these cases, the ipRouteIfIndex refers to a
proprietary interface which is not currently implemented
by the interface group of MIB II. Route entries with an
unrecognized ipRouteIfIndex value should not be deleted.
ipRouteMetric2 – Defaulted to –1 for standalone
devices.
•
•
ipRouteType – Defaulted to indirect.
ipRouteMask – Defaulted as specified in the MIB
description.
When setting this object via SNMP, the ipRouteIfIndex
value can only assume an appropriate value of ifIndex
defined for the particular device type.
The following objects are unused in the E1 DSU/CSU
and setting them will have no effect on the operation of
the IP implementation.
IP Group – “ipRouteMetric2” Object

ipRouteMetric3, ipRouteMetric4, ipRouteMetric5 –
Defaulted to –1 as specified in the MIB.
For standalone devices, ipRouteMetric2 is not used and
contains –1.
•
ipRouteNextHop – Defaulted to 0.0.0.0.
When adding a route to the routing table using SNMP,
do not specify a value for ipRouteMetric2.

the RS-232-like MIB.
SNMP Group, MIB II
IP Group – “ipRouteAge” Object
(ipRouteEntry 10)
The SNMP Group objects that apply to a management
agent are fully supported by the E1 DSU/CSU. The
following objects apply only to an NMS and return a zero
value if accessed.
This object is implemented as a read-only object in the
E1 DSU/CSU. In the E1 DSU/CSU, it reflects the value of
the route’s time-to-live (in seconds). When displayed, a
value of 999 represents a route that is retained
permanently. For temporary routes, the ipRouteAge object
decrements over time. All routes added via an SNMP set
of the ipRouteTable are considered permanent routes.
These routes do not age, but will remain unless deleted via

The Asynchronous Port table is not supported by the
E1 DSU/CSU for the synchronous data ports. The Input
Signal and Output Signal tables are not supported for the
AUX and COM ports. The following sections provide
clarification for objects contained in the RS-232-like MIB
when it is not clear how the object definition in MIB is
related to the E1 DSU/CSU.
The DS1 Fractional Group, DS1/E1 MIB
The DS1 Fractional group consists of the DS1
fractional table. This table (dsx1FracTable) is fully
supported by the E1 DSU/CSU and allows channel (time
slots) to be mapped between the E1 interfaces and data
ports. If an invalid channel map (e.g., two interfaces
mapped to a single time slot, one interface mapped to two
E1s, etc.) is received, an error is returned to the SNMP
manager. The E1 DSU/CSU validates all channel
configurations before applying them.
Number of Ports – “rs232Number” Object
(rs232 1)
Operational Note: The fractional E1 group only allows
specification of an entire interface to a particular time slot
on another interface (i.e., a time slot on one interface
cannot be mapped to a time slot on another interface).
This prevents complete mapping of time slots on the DTE
Drop/Insert interface to time slots on the network E1
interface. For mapping time slots between the network
and DTE E1 interfaces, the following convention is used:
Time slots on the E1 interface that are mapped to another

Interconnected 31xx Series devices automatically
Overview
pass routing information between them; however, a
static route to the subnet(s) must be set in the
routing table of the NMS host. This route uses the
31xx Series device connected to the LAN (via the
LAN Adapter), or the NMS (via a direct PPP or
SLIP connection) as a gateway to the subnet(s). In
all instances, the addressing scheme presented
works for both the LAN and the direct connections.
This appendix describes a means of configuring 31xx
Series devices in an Internet Protocol (IP) network to
provide SNMP connectivity to a network management
system (NMS). Since there are many possible network
addressing schemes, this appendix describes an addressing
scheme for a typical customer network scenario. This
appendix is not intended to be an IP addressing or routing
tutorial, and a basic understanding of IP and 31xx Series
features is assumed.
•
•
•
Although routing table entries are maintained
automatically by 31xx Series devices, without the
need for user configuration, only a maximum of
100 routes is supported for a given device.
IP Network Addressing
The choice of a host address within a given subnet
is completely arbitrary. Choose any legal host
address for a given subnet, without regard to the
local or remote devices.
The IP network addressing scenario (Figure F-1)
consists of a series of standalone 31xx Series devices
daisy chained together, with remotes connected via the
FDL. In this scenario, all 31xx Series devices are on the
same subnet (135.18.1.0). The subnet mask for each
device is FF.FF.FF.00. A static route is set in the NMS
host to subnet 135.18.1.0.
Although the default route (to the NMS) is
configurable for all devices, only devices that have
a direct external connection to an NMS (via the
COM or AUX ports) need a default route set. In the
following example, the default port (COM or AUX)
The following notes apply to this scenario:
is set in the device connected to the LAN Adapter
.
•
Connections to remote devices may be via EDL or
FDL; however, the FDL is only available on full E1
links (not fractional E1s). Check with the service
provider to be sure that the FDL is end-to-end (i.e.,
not terminated at an intermediate point within the
network).

Overview
The E1 DSU/CSU offers functionality through Front
Panel Emulation software that is similar to that provided
by the E1 DSU/CSU front panel. The E1 DSU/CSU can
either be locally or remotely attached to a 386 or higher
PC that has at least 4 MB of RAM. (An external modem is
required for remote attachment.) A copy of the E1
DSU/CSU front panel appears on the PC. The
functionality of the front panel is available by clicking on
the Function keys with the mouse rather than by pressing
keys from the actual front panel.
4. Type the letter of the drive being used by the
diskette, followed by a colon. Then,

write-protected diskette, with 15 sectors per track,
80 tracks per side, and 96 tracks per inch.
8. Type the letter of the destination drive, followed
by a colon (default is C:), then the appropriate
directory name (default is C:\FRONTPAN).
If the selected directory already exists, the
following message appears: The specified
directory already exists. Do you want to
overwrite the directory?
This software must be installed on a 386 or higher PC
with Microsoft Windows Release 3.1 or higher

Starting Front Panel
Emulation
If the E1 DSU/CSU selected is not locally attached to
the PC, you must first dial to the remote E1 DSU/CSU
before starting front panel emulation. The modem
attached to the PC must support AT commands for the
Front Panel Emulation software to successfully place the
call.
To start front panel emulation,
1. From the PC, open Program Manager from
Windows.
4. Enter the Com Port and Speed from the
drop-down selection list boxes.
The Com Port field needs to contain the actual
communications port name as recorded in the
Windows information file (INI).
The Speed field needs to contain one of the
following communications speeds: 1200, 2400,
4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, or 38400 and should
match the DSU/CSU COM port configuration.
5. Choose either a Local (for near-end E1
DSU/CSU) or Remote (for far-end E1 DSU/CSU)
destination.
2. The Front Panel Window opens.
6. If you chose a Local destination, click on the
Execute button. If you chose a Remote
destination, enter the telephone number of the
external modem connected to the far-end E1
DSU/CSU in the Phone Number field, then click
on the Dial button.
