9124-A2-GH30-00 June 1999 - Preliminary
H
Router-Independence. Unique diagnostics, performance monitoring,
PVC-based in-band network management, and SNMP connectivity is not
dependent upon external routers, cables, or LAN adapters.
H
Inverse ARP and Standard RIP Support. Provides Inverse ARP (Address
Resolution Protocol) support so the frame relay router at one end of a
management PVC can acquire the IP address of a FrameSaver unit at the
other end of the PVC. Standard RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows the
router to automatically learn the routes to all FrameSaver units connected to
that FrameSaver unit.
H
Configuration Upload/Download and Software Download Capability.
Provides quick transfer of configuration options to and from nodes and
software downloads while the unit is running using a standard file transfer
protocol (FTP). Two software loads can be stored.
H
Dual Flash Memory. Allows software upgrades while the unit is up and
running. Two software loads can be stored and implemented at the user’s
discretion.
H
Two Customer-Specified Configuration Storage Areas. Allows quick
switching of the unit’s configuration.
H
Menu-Driven User Interface. Provides an easy to use, menu-driven
interface to locally or remotely configure, manage, maintain, and access the
unit’s extensive diagnostic capability.
H
Network Management Support. Operates and is compatible with
OpenLane, NetScout, and Concord Communications products.
H
Standards-Based Protocol Support. Supports PPP and SLIP link-layer
protocols for connection to an external SNMP (Simple Network Management
Protocol) manager or network device via the COM port or modem port.
H
SNMP Management Capability. Provides network management via an
external Simple Network Management Protocol management system using
industry-standard and Paradyne-specific MIB (Management Information
Base) objects.
H
IP Management Connectivity. Supports management connectivity within
an IP (Internet Protocol) network for up to 300 IP routes to provide IP routing
for SNMP, Telnet, and FTP messages without requiring direct connections.
H
Interoperability with Other FrameSaver Devices. Operates with
FrameSaver 9120 and 9620s; FrameSaver SLV 9124s, 9624s, 9126s,
9128s, 9626s, and the international 9820-C/9820s, as well as NextEDGE
FrameSaver systems.
H
Multinational Support. For multinational applications, teaming international
FrameSaver SLV units with North American-based FrameSaver SLV devices
provides a complete global frame relay management solution.
H
Back-to-Back Operation. Allows two FrameSaver devices to be connected
via a network crossover cable so a point-to-point configuration simulating a
leased line environment can be simulated.
