H

One Management Communications Controller (MCC) card

The chassis requires one MCC card, which is a processor card that
administers and provides diagnostic connectivity to the DSL cards. It acts as
a mid-level manager and works in conjunction with a Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) system, such as Paradyne’s OpenLane

t

DCE Manager for HP OpenView, via its LAN port. It gathers operational
status for each of the DSL cards and responds to the SNMP requests. It also
has a serial port for a local user interface to the DSLAM.

(MVL) card

The chassis requires at least one DSL or MVL card, which is a circuit card

processor/packet forwarder controls the modems and forwards the packet
traffic via the Ethernet and DSL or MVL interfaces. When the 8600 DSLAM
chassis is fully populated, it provides a total of 68 RADSL or MVL modem
ports. When the 8800 DSLAM chassis is fully populated, it provides a total of
