Overview
This chapter provides examples of how data packets are routed through the
service and management domains.
Packet Walk-Through Using an 8540 DSL Card
Service Domain Packet Walk-Through
To examine how data packets flow through the service domain, an example of
ES1 issuing a ping to NSP1 will be used. The following assumptions are made:
A source domain IP entry exists for ES1
A static route exists between the DSL card and ES1
Filtering is disabled
The following illustration shows how data packets flow through the service
domain. In this illustration ES1 is connected to the same LAN as the HotWire
RTU.
