Models 3224 G.SHDSL IpDSLAM & 6081RC NAS Applications Guide
3 • Bridged data application
Note
Once the IpDSLAM or EdgeRoute Network Access Server have been
configured for operation, you may wish to connect Ethernet Port A to
the LAN. Doing so offers the following advantages:
•
Remote management
—you can log in to the IpDSLAM and Edg-
eRoute Network Access Server management interface remotely using
any workstation connected to the LAN and standard http browser.
•
Multiple operators
—two or more operators can manage the IpD-
SLAM and EdgeRoute Network Access Server, at the same time or
at different times, using multiple workstations on the LAN.
Before moving Ethernet Port A to the LAN, you must first assign an
IP address to Ethernet Port A that has the same network number as
the LAN. For further instructions, see section
“Modifying the IP
address for Ethernet interface A (optional)”
on page 24.
•
Et
hernet Interface B (front Panel, Model 3224, front panel PMC module 6081RC)
-
You will connect the IpDSLAM or EdgeRoute Network Access Server Ethernet Port B to an
Ethernet LAN.
Note
This procedure assumes that the Model 6081RC is equipped with a
PMC card which presents Ethernet port B on the front panel of the
unit. Units not equipped with a PMC card have both Ethernet ports
B and C internally connected to the ForeFront Chassis midplane.
It’s possible to use the model 6081RC Ethernet port A simulta-
neously for bridging and management (see section
“Alternate Inter-
face Configuration for Model 6081RC”
on page 31 for details.)
-
All traffic on Ethernet Port B will be delivered via Ethernet bridging at layer 2 of the OSI model.
-
No IP address will be needed by or assigned to Ethernet Port B.
Defaults
The bridged Ethernet configuration described in section “Basic assumptions” operates using the 3224 default
values. For the Model 6081RC, the operator must configure H.110 port parameters and create PPP transport
and bridge groups.
•
Ethernet Interface A
—By factory default the IP address assigned to Ethernet interface A for both model
3224 and 6081RC is 192.168.200.98/24 ( the designation /24 indicates the IP address has a netmask of
255.255.255.0)
•
Ethernet Interface B
—By factory default Ethernet interface B for both 3224 and 6081RC is not assigned
an IP address. In bridged data application, because this Ethernet interface is intended to handle bridged
traffic only, no IP address is needed
•
Ethernet Interface C (6081RC only)
—By factory default Ethernet interface C in the 6081RC is not
assigned an IP address. This Ethernet interface is not used in this particular application
