Document Purpose and Intended Audience
This guide describes how to configure and operate the software component of
the Hotwire Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) system.
Specifically, this document addresses the use of the following cards in the
DSLAM:
H 8540 Rate Adaptive Digital Subscriber Line (RADSL) card.
H 8546 Rate Adaptive Digital Subscriber Line (RADSL) card.
This document is intended for administrators and operators who maintain the
networks that support Hotwire operation. A basic understanding of
internetworking protocols and their features is assumed. Specifically, you should
have familiarity with Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), Network
Management Systems (NMSs), and the following internetworking concepts:
H TCP/IP applications
H IP and subnet addressing
H IP forwarding (also referred to as IP routing)
It is also assumed that you have already installed either the Hotwire 8600/8610,
8800/8810 DSLAM, or 8820 GranDSLAM. If you have not done so already, refer
to the appropriate Hotwire DSLAM or GranDSLAM installation document for
installation instructions.
NOTE:
It is highly recommended that you read the Hotwire DSLAM for 8540 and
8546 DSL Cards Network Configuration Guide before you begin to use this
guide and the Hotwire software. The Network Configuration Guide provides
introductory information about the Hotwire DSLAM network model and
theories. It is also recommended that you read the Hotwire Management
