Scenarios for Deploying Channelized T1, E1 and T3 WAN Configuration
30.18.5 Scenario 5: Routed Metropolitan Backbone with T1 and T3 on RS 8x00
In this scenario, a number of service providers are connected by a Metropolitan Backbone. The backbone consists of
RS 32000 connected by Packet Over SONET (POS) links.
An MSP provides a Channelized T3 service using an RS 32000. A company has two sites that connect to this service:
•
The head office (hqsite) connects using a T3 line from an RS 8600.
•
The remote site, rsite, connects to the RS 8600 at head office using four T1 lines bundled with
Multilink PPP, a fractional T1 line, which provides one 768 Kbps service, one 384 Kbps service, and
six 64 Kbps services. Also, a full (unstructured) T1 link is connected directly to the RS 8600.
Internet Service Provider A uses a POS link to the Internet. Internet Service Provider B provides a Channelized T3
service to an Application Service Provider and a Content Provider, both of which connect using T3 lines from an RS
8000.
Figure 30-9 shows the network layout for this scenario. The tables following the figure show the commands used to
configure the interfaces for the routers at the various locations. Only the configurations of the Channelized T1 and T3
interfaces are described.
