6.6 Frequently Asked Questions

Q

: How does the IPmux handle/propagate alarms on the TDM and Ethernet side?

A

: The IPmux handles alarms on the TDM and Ethernet side in the following

manner:

TDM

side

alarms

Unframed mode:

In case of LOS (Loss Of Signal) on the local IPmux side, AIS will be sent
towards the IP side, and will then be transferred over the E1/T1 to the

remote TDM device.

All other alarms sent from the near-end TDM device (including information
on timeslot 0), will be propagated transparently by the local IPmux, to the
remote end TDM device (over the IP connection).

Framed

mode:

In case of LOS/LOF/AIS detected on the local IPmux side, a user-configurable

conditioning pattern (00 to FF) will be sent on the relevant timeslots (over the IP
connection), to the far-end TDM device. A user-configurable conditioning
pattern can also be applied on the ABCD bits (CAS signaling 1 to F) going
towards the remote PBX.
The frame synch on the E1/T1 level is maintained in favor of the end TDM
devices.

Ethernet Side Alarms
Unframed mode:
In case of local failure on the IPmux, or a situation of jitter buffer
underflow/overflow, an (unframed) AIS will be sent towards the near-end TDM
side.
