PPP-IPCP Chassis Management Channel 162
Models 2616RC, 3096RC & 3196RC Admin Reference Guide 11 • In-band management
Tx Port (sysMgmtPortTx)—The port number on which the local T-DAC transmits the in-band manage-
ment data. The port selected must be the same as that selected for the receive port at the remote T-DAC.
Parameter values range from port1(1) to port32(32).
Rx Port (sysMgmtPortRx)—The port number on which the local T-DAC receives the in-band manage-
ment data. The port selected must be the same as that selected for the transmit port at the remote T-DAC.
Parameter values range from port1(1) to port32(32).
TimeSlot
Each port contains 128 DS0 time slots. A DS0 time slot is 64 kbps simplex for the Chassis Management
Channels. Prior to configuring the Port and TimeSlot parameters for an in-band management link, go to the
DS0 Mapping management page in the T-DAC. Do not use any of the port and time slot combinations which
are already configured for H.110 in the Defined Mappings table. You must select unique port and slot combina-
tions. Consider Port and TimeSlot as an ordered pair, (Port, TimeSlot). Each ordered pair, (Port, TimeSlot), can
be used only once in each card. Secondly, the Tx (Port, TimeSlot) on this end of the link is the Rx (Port,
TimeSlot) of the remote end of the link.
Tx Timeslot (sysMgmtSlotTx)Defines the timeslot that the local T-DAC transmits in-band management
data. The specified timeslot value must be the same as that used for the receive timeslot parameter at the
remote T-DAC. Valid parameter values are positive integers ranging from 1–128.
Rx Timeslot (sysMgmtSlotRx)—Defines the timeslot that the local T-DAC receives in-band management
data. The specified timeslot value must be the same as that used for the transmit timeslot parameter at the
remote T-DAC. Valid parameter values are positive integers ranging from 1–128.
Default Gateway (sysMgmtDefaultGateway)
By checking the Default Gateway box, the default gateway is automatically added to the routing table upon
defining the Chassis Management Channel. This box typically is not checked on the card which has the incom-
ing T1/E1 management channel. You would normally check this box for the other cards in the
ForeFront chassis.
