Commands with EEC
5-2 ADSL Commands
For example, you could set up different profiles for different kinds of accounts (for example, economy, standard
and premium). Assign the appropriate profile to an ADSL port and it takes care of a large part of the port’s
configuration. You still get to individually enable or disable each port, as well as configure its encapsulation type,
multiplexing mode, VPI, VCI and operational mode. See later in this chapter for how to configure profiles.
5.5 Configured Versus Actual Rate
You configure the maximum rate of an individual ADSL port by modifying its profile (see the
set profile
command) or assigning the port to a different profile (see the
set port
command). However, due to noise and
other factors on the line, the actual rate may not reach the maximum that you specify.
Even though you can specify arbitrary numbers using the
set profile
command, the actual rate is always a
multiple of 32 Kbps. If you enter a rate that is not a multiple of 32 Kbps, the actual rate will be the next lower
multiple of 32Kbps. For instance, if you specify 60 Kbps for a port, the actual rate for that port will not exceed 32
Kbps, and if you specify 66 Kbps, the actual rate will not be over 64Kbps.
Note that when you configure an ADSL port, the upstream rate must be less than or equal to the downstream rate.
Note also that the
list port
command displays the configured parameters of the ADSL port, while the
show
port
command displays the actual rates.
5.6 Default Settings
The default profile always exists and all of the ADSL ports use the default profile settings when the line card is
shipped. The default profile's name is set to
DEFVAL
. The default profile’s maximum downstream rate can only be
obtained when using the G.dmt standard. Configure a profile with a maximum downstream rate of 1536 Kbps or
less for use with G.lite.
Refer to the ALC1024 Overview chapter for the settings of the default profile and ADSL port default settings.
5.7 ADSL Commands

adsl
at the command prompt to enter the ADSL subsystem of commands.
5.7.1 Config Save Command
Syntax:
192.168.1.1 adsl> config save
The
config save
command saves the ADSL configuration into nonvolatile memory.
