EOC
ASMi-52 provides an inband management channel (EOC) for end-to-end system
management and supervision. This management channel uses SHDSL overhead
bits and operates without interfering with data transmission.
ConfiguRAD
ConfiguRAD is a user-friendly Web-based terminal management system used for
remote device configuration and maintenance. It is embedded in ASMi-52 and
provided at no extra cost. ConfiguRAD can be run from any standard Web
browser.

The V.24 terminal port supports a dial-up modem connection for remote
management of ASMi-52 over telephone lines.
Dial-Out
The V.24 terminal port supports alarm dial-out.
Diagnostics
ASMi-52 supports activation of the following:
Local loopback
Remote loopback
Remote loopback at the SHDSL repeater (activated from the local unit)
Internal Bert (multiplexer units only) vs. multiplexer.
All tests can be activated from the local unit or from the remote unit.
ASMi-52 includes an internal Bit Error Rate Tester (BERT) for complete testing of
the local and remote modem and the link quality without any need for an external
test equipment. ASMi-52 runs an internal pseudo-random 511-bit test pattern in
accordance with the ITU V.52 standard.
Real time alarms provide information on the system status, indicating management
failure, synchronization loss and other conditions.
