IP Addressing

Selecting an IP Addressing Scheme
Your IP addressing scheme depends in part whether the management card
controlling the chassis is running IP Conservative software.
Configurations Not Running IP Conservative Software
In a configuration not running IP Conservative software, the NTUs network
interface IP address is assigned through the peer IP address of the LTUs
Network Interface menu.
The termination unit is assigned an IP address and subnet through the DSLAMs
Configuration DSL Cards Set IP Address menu. Once the address is
assigned, you can use the ATI to assign:
H Peer IP addresses to the DSL ports. These addresses are used as the IP
addresses of the remote units, and must be in the same subnet as the
DSLAM management card. See Table A-1, Network Interface Options, in
Appendix A, Configuration Options.
H An IP address for each NMS to act as a trap manager. See Table A-14,
SNMP Traps Options, in Appendix A, Configuration Options.
All Configurations
The NTU obtains its IP address when the PPP link is established over the EOC.
Use the ATI to assign:
H An IP address for each NMS. See Table A-13, SNMP NMS Security Options,
in Appendix A, Configuration Options.
H An IP address for the TFTP server you wish to use to upload and download
configurations. See Configuration Loader in Chapter 9, Transferring Code
and Configurations Using TFTP, and the documentation for your TFTP
server.
