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.
For more information about the Hotwire MCC card, see the
Hotwire
Management Communications Controller (MCC) Card, IP Conservative,
User’s Guide.
H
At least one Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) or Multiple Virtual Lines
(MVL) card
The chassis requires at least one DSL or MVL card, which is a circuit card
that contains four RADSL or MVL modem ports, an Ethernet interface to the
Internet Service Provider (ISP), and a processor/packet forwarder. The
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
72 RADSL or MVL modem ports.
