SHARED PVC MANAGEMENT (IN-BAND)
Introduction
The ADTRAN IQ 710 supports in-band shared PVC management. Shared PVC management refers to a
PVC that is used for normal data traffic and management traffic. The IQ 710 monitors this PVC for packets
that contain its IP address. When the IQ 710 detects a packet containing a destination IP address that
matches the IQ 710 IP address, the unit intercepts the packet and processes its TCP/IP information. Shared
PVC management is used to manage remote IQ 710s without being dependent on services from the remote
router. This sometimes requires a static route at the host location. See the illustration below for an example
of the Shared PVC Management Application.
Shared PVC Management Application
To support this type of management, all traffic on the selected PVC must be RFC 1490
encapsulated, noncompressed IP traffic.
By setting local PVC management and shared PVC management on the remote IQ 710, its
IP address can be found through Inverse ARP. Since the unit is set up for shared PVC
management, all management traffic will be intercepted prior to reaching the remote
router.
