Hosted System Configuration
Configuration overview for hosted operation
Stinger Compact Remote ATM DSLAM configuration tasks for hosted operation
include the following:
■
Physical configuration of the chassis validation ID (optional)
■
Configuration of the software parameters on the host Stinger unit to establish it
as a host unit, enable communication with the remote Stinger CR ATM DSLAM
units, and configure their lines (See “Configuring a hosted Compact Remote ATM
DSLAM system” on page 5-4.)
■
Defining ATM traffic contracts (See “Traffic management in hosted Compact
Remote systems” on page 5-8.)
■
Configuring connections, either locally or through RADIUS
Setting the chassis ID (optional)
To avoid connecting a Stinger CR ATM DSLAM unit to the wrong OLIM port on the
host, each Stinger CR ATM DSLAM chassis has a set of eight DIP switches that are
used to configure an identification number between 0 and 255 for that chassis. The
number configured with these switches can be compared with an identification
number that is configured in software on the host Stinger unit. This comparison
verifies that a specific Stinger CR ATM DSLAM chassis has been connected to a
specific optical port of an OLIM on the host Stinger unit. Detection of the chassis ID
can be enabled or disabled on the host Stinger unit.
The chassis ID DIP switches are located behind the cooling unit in the top rear area of
the Stinger CR ATM DSLAM chassis, as shown in Figure 5-1.
