What is an MCC Card?

A Management Communications Controller (MCC) card is a processor circuit
card assembly (CCA) that administers and provides diagnostic connectivity to all
of the Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) cards in a HotWire 8600 or 8800 DSL Access
Multiplexer (DSLAM) chassis. It acts as a mid-level manager and works in
conjunction with a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) network
management system, such as Paradyne’s DCE Manager for HP OpenView, via
its Local Area Network (LAN) port. It gathers operational status for each of the
DSL cards and HotWire Remote Termination Units (RTUs) and responds to the
SNMP requests (via PROXY ARP). It also supports a serial port for local or
remote terminal access.
