Configuring the HotWire DSLAM
4
Overview
The HotWire DSLAM enables you to configure and manage the HotWire MCC
and DSL cards. This chapter describes the basic card configuration instructions.
Port Naming Convention
The following is the naming convention used for the HotWire DSLAM interfaces:
NOTE:
Interfaces are sometimes referred to as ports. The term
ports
, however,
usually is reserved for referring to the physical layer attributes of an interface.
H e1a — Interface name of the DSLAM system 10BaseT interface on the MCC
and DSL cards.
H s1b — Interface name of the MCC and DSL card’s interface to the DSLAM
system backplane bus.
H s1c, s1d, s1e, and s1f — Interface names of the four DSL ports on a DSL
card.
NOTE:
These names are used throughout the remainder of this guide to reference
the HotWire DSLAM interfaces. These are also the names used in the
HotWire DSLAM software when configuring the HotWire DSLAM system.
