Configuring the Cisco NI-1 DLSAM Equipment
Module
The Cisco 6100/6130 NI-1 DSLAM Equipment Module supports provisioning of cross connections on
Cisco 6100/6130 NI-1 DSL access concentrators. The Cisco 6100/6130 DSL access multiplexer
(DSLAM) is an ATM cell switch that multiplexes traffic from subscriber ports to a single ATM WAN
port. Its 32 slot multiport line-card architecture can support ADSL and SDSL technologies.
Supported Configurations
Two configurations are possible with this system:
•
•
Subscriber Connection Configurations
Subtending Configurations
Subscriber Connection Configurations
Subscriber Connection configurations include the following:
•
Direct Connect Configuration.
This involves connecting one subscriber directly to a modem (ATU-C or STU-C). Traffic is
multiplexed from up to 64 ADSL or 128 SDSL subscriber ports to a single ATM WAN port.
•
Digital Off-Hook Configuration (DOH).
This configuration uses a combination of a Multiplexer Chassis (MC), Line Concentration Chassis
(LCC), and POTS Splitter Chassis (PSC) to provide the highest subscriber concentration. This
configuration uses ADSL technology to support up to 400 ADSL users through 64 ADSL modem
ports, allowing connections to be made when they are needed (i.e., dial up). If a connection is not
established, the central office modem resources are made available to another CPE.
Subtending Configurations
Subtending Configurations include the following:
•
Non-subtended Network Configuration.
Allows individual DSLAMs to be directly linked to the WAN via a trunk that comes from the WAN
port.

Summary of Configuration Tasks
Note
In order to configure the NI-1 DLSAM Equipment Module you must have installed it
during the CPC Server and Client installation procedures. For more information about
installing CPC, refer to the chapter titled "Initial Installation" in the Cisco Provisioning
Center Installation and Administration Guide.
Summary of Configuration Tasks
To configure the Equipment Module to make CPC operational, you must complete the following steps:
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4
Step 5
Network Timeout.
Initial system upload.
Re-upload (if configuration information has changed).
Add inter-network links (topology) information.
Configure Service element profiles.
Network Timeout
The NI-1 DLSAM Equipment Module implements an overall timeout for service provisioning
transactions. There are two environmental variables that define the Network Timeout. These are
CCP_ACTIVATION_TIMEOUT (Default=120 seconds) and CCP_RESET_TIMEOUT (default=
300 seconds); they define the maximum interval (measured in seconds) allowed for each Service element
activation and for the rollback of each Service element, respectively. The maximum interval must
amount to the maximum time to elapse before the NIF times out. For example, if
CCP_ACTIVATION_TIMEOUT=180, this allows the NIF three minutes to activate an item in a
Transaction.
Default settings are used if the NIF detects that these variables are not set in the environment.
Network timeout requires shutting down the server if it is not already down, setting the variables and
then restarting it to pick up the environment changes.
To set the CCP_ACTIVATION_TIMEOUT environment variable:
Step 1
Step 2
Shut down the CPC server by issuing the following command:
SYnpt -h
Set the environment variable to an integer (measured in seconds) that amounts to the maximum time to
elapse before the NIF times out:
export CCP_ACTIVATION_TIMEOUT=180
To set the CCP_RESET_TIMEOUT environment variable:
Step 3
Set the environment variable to an integer (measured in seconds) that amounts to the maximum time to
elapse before the NIF times out:
export CCP_RESET_TIMEOUT=180

Initial System Upload
Step 4
Run the following commands in succession to source the Server environment and start the CPC Server:
cd /opt/SY/Activator/Server/mng/utility
. syccpovdef
SYnpt -sS
Initial System Upload
In order to provision services, the CPC database must have detailed knowledge of the managed
subnetworks. Using a procedure called upload, objects are created within the CPC database that
represent objects of the managed network.
Note
The term upload does not refer to the creation of inter-network links because they are
outside the scope of any single Equipment Module. For more information on adding
inter-networking links, see the section titled “Adding Inter-Network Links (Topology)
Information” in this chapter.
CPC supports the following types of upload:
•
•
•
fabric (nodes, DSL physical ports, WAN physical ports, WAN subtending ports, ATM logical ports)
Service (ATM cross connections)
fabric and Service (all)
For the Cisco 6100/6130 NI-1 Equipment Module you can upload many nodes at once (network upload)
or an individual node at a time. CPC supports the following upload scenarios:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Given a network object, upload just the fabric elements for the nodes in that network.
Given a network object, upload just the Service elements for the nodes in that network.
Given a network object, upload all the fabric and Service elements for the nodes in that network.
Given a node object, upload just the fabric elements for that node.
Given a node object, upload just the Service elements for that node.
Given a node object, upload all fabric and Service elements for that node.
Note
The upload function takes precedence over any Transactions that are running at the time of
upload. If the upload function makes a change back to the fabric that affects a running
Transaction (such as deleting a logical port that the Threader has decided to use) then this
Transaction fails and must be restarted.
Network and node objects must be created in order to perform an Upload.

To re-upload you need to upload the fabric and Service elements for that node. For more information,
refer to the sections “Uploading the Fabric and Service Elements for a Node Object” and “Uploading the
Fabric Elements for a Node Object” in this chapter.
Working with Logical Ports
ATM logical ports can be created, modified, and deleted from DSL physical ports.
Creating Logical Ports
When creating a Cisco 6100/6130 ATM Logical Port, select an available DSL physical port (one whose
Interworking Model is set to None). This ensures that the selected physical port is not being used by
other network models. Ensure that the Maximum Connections field is set to 4 or less and update the other
fields (such as Name) as necessary. To create an ATM logical port, complete the following steps:
Step 1
From the Root Tree Viewer choose Network > Cisco NI1 DSLAM Network Name > Cisco NI1 DSLAM
Node > Node Name > Cisco NI1 DSLAM ATM Logical Port.
Step 2
Step 3
Click the Object Viewer button on the toolbar.
Fill in the attribute fields with the required values. Ensure that the Maximum Connections field is set
to four or less, and update other fields as necessary. You must select a physical port to which the logical
port belongs.
Step 4
Note
Save and apply the network object by clicking the Save and Apply buttons.
You must use the copy and paste mechanism when entering a value for the physical port
that will contain the logical port. Manually entered physical port values are not supported.
Modifying Logical Ports
To modify an ATM logical port, complete the following steps:
Step 1
From the Root Tree Viewer choose Network > Cisco NI1 DSLAM Network Name > Cisco NI1 DSLAM
Node > Node Name > Cisco NI1 DSLAM ATM Logical Port > Logical Port name.

Chapter 6 Configuring the Cisco NI-1 DLSAM Equipment Module
Working with Service Element Profiles
Working with Service Element Profiles
Service element profiles provide you with access to the Cisco-specific attributes for a particular Service
element. There is a corresponding Service element profile for each Service element type that the node
supports. Default profiles provide the initial (default) attribute values for the corresponding object class
whenever such a new object is created.
For a given Service element, more than one profile may be defined. However, for a given object, only
one profile may be associated at any one time.
Since profiles themselves are objects which you can create and modify, they provide a means to store
and name commonly used sets of attributes and provide a reliable shorthand method of configuring any
number of new objects. A profile has most of the same attributes as the corresponding object class. Some
attributes of the object class are not included in the profile because they are expected to be unique for
each object. For example, an object’s name is not a profile attribute.
The attributes of a profile are referred to as initial value attributes because they are used to assign the
initial values to the corresponding object. Once a new object has been created based on a profile, changes
to profile attribute values do not cause any changes to the corresponding object. The only time the profile
attributes affect the object is when you create a new object or when you reassign an existing object to
the same or different profile.
For the Cisco 6100/6130 NI-1 Equipment Module, you can create Service element profiles for the
following supported Service Elements:
•
•
•
DSL Physical Ports
ATM Logical Ports
ATM-ATM Cross Connections
This section details the generic procedure for creating, modifying, and deleting Service element profiles,
and then provides the specific configurable attributes for each Service element profile for this Equipment
Module.
If you provide values for these attributes and also provide values in other places when you are creating
a service (either during service creation or in a Service Object profile) the threader will override the
values based on the following scale of priorities:
1. Service Object Viewer—All information provided in the Service object Subset Viewer is used by
CPC.
2. Service object profile—CPC will only use the information provided in the Service object profile for
values that are either not available or not specified in the Service object Subset Viewer.
3. Service element profile—CPC uses values from the Service element profile for all attributes that are
not present or not specified in the Service object profile or the Service object Subset Viewer.
Creating a Service Element Profile
To create a Service element profile, complete the following steps:
Step 1

DSL Physical Port Profile Attributes
The DSL physical port profile provides you with access to the additional attributes that you can
configure for a Cisco 6100/6130 DSL physical port. The information you provide in the physical port
profile is communicated back to the Cisco 6100/6130 through the Equipment Module and helps to define
the type of service you are provisioning in the network.

This attribute controls the
Enabled, Disabled Disabled
detection and enforcement of
minimum compatible software
levels when the modem port that
the subscriber is connected to
trains to the CPE at the far end. If
this attribute is Enabled, the
modem port retrieves the software
signature during the training
sequence. If disabled, the software
signature provided by the far end
CPE is ignored and the training
sequence is allowed to continue as
normal.
Allow 136K
Baud
(Downstream)
Enabling this attribute allows
modems to use the 136K baud rate
when attempting to train at the
requested upstream and
Enabled, Disabled Disabled
downstream rates
(incoming/outgoing bandwidth). If
this attribute is Disabled, the 136K
baud rate will not be used in the
training algorithm. If the
subscriber is provisioned for rates
that require 136K baud, the modem
will attempt to train at the closest
rate combination not using 136K
baud.

ATM-ATM Cross Connection Service Element Profile Attributes
The ATM-ATM Cross Connection Service element profile provides you with access to the additional
attributes that you can configure for a Cisco 6100/6130 ATM Cross Connect service through the Cisco
6100/6130 DSLAM. The ATM cross-connection object represents a cross connect between two ATM
logical ports in the same node. This Service object can be a VC between a DSL port and a Network
Interface (NI) port and also between subtending NI ports. The information you provide in the Service
element profile is communicated to the Cisco 6100/6130 DSLAM through the Equipment Module and
helps to define the type of service you are provisioning in the network. If you do not create Service
element profiles, the Equipment Module will communicate the values specified in the default Service
element profile.
