Functional Description

IPmux-11 Ver. 2.00

IPmux-11 transfers fault conditions only if the payload format is configured to V2.
The fault conditions are transferred as follows:
• Framed E1 or T1: RDI as RDI, LOS and AIS as AIS
• Unframed E1 or T1: LOS and AIS as AIS.

VLAN Traffic Behavior

Table 1-5

lists the IP and VLAN validity checks that are performed with each

Ethernet packet that is received by IPmux-11.

Answer to ping

Packet with VLAN tagging: IPmux-11 replies with the same VLAN ID (even
if it is s one of IPs configured for the manager or for the connection).
Packet without VLAN tagging: if it is one of the IPs configured for the
manager or for the connection, the IPmux-11 replies with the VLAN ID

that is in the manager or connection configuration.

Ping initiated by IPmux-11

No VLAN value unless it is to one of the managers or the connection’s IP
address

Ethernet Ports

The Ethernet user ports allow a user to aggregate both TDMoIP traffic and his
private network LAN traffic to a single Ethernet network connection without

requiring an access switch. This is a cost-effective solution for MTU or small-office
applications. A rate limiter to restrict user port traffic is supported.
IPmux-11 contains an internal bridge where one of its ports is connected to a
TDMoIP interworking function, two external bridge ports is used as the user ports,
and the fourth is used as an Ethernet network port.
