Overview
This chapter describes configuration options on the 8540/8546 RADSL cards.
Use these options to customize your applications. For information on customizing
the MCC card, see the Hotwire Management Communications Controller (MCC)
Card Users Guide.
NOTE:
Certain parameters such as speeds are dependent on the settings on the
RTU Configuration screen. Go to Configuration RTU Config Selection
(A-H-A) and select your RTU type for each port before any additional
configuration activities.
Port Naming Conventions
The following are the naming conventions used for the Hotwire DSL 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 cards interface to the DSL
system backplane bus.
H s1c, s1d, s1e, and s1f Interface names of the four DSL ports on a RADSL
card.
NOTE:
These names are used throughout the remainder of this guide to reference
the Hotwire DSL interfaces. These are also the names used in the Hotwire
DSL software when configuring the Hotwire DSL system.
