Configuring the AT-CM Media Converter Line Cards for the OAM-
based Features
Are you planning to implement any of these OAM-based features on the
AT-CM Line Cards?
ˆ Remote peer management
ˆ Remote downloads of new management software
ˆ Dying gasp feature
ˆ OAM loopback test
ˆ OAM variable requests
If so, perform this procedure to configure the cards. It explains how to set
the operating modes of the cards to the OAM visible mode and how to
verify their OAM settings. This procedure has to be performed at a
Converteon chassis that has a management card. Thus, those AT-CM
Line Cards to be deployed at remote sites have to be initially installed and
configured in a chassis with a management card.
Note
If you plan to use the dying gasp feature, perform “Configuring the
AT-CM Line Cards” on page 230 instead of this procedure. Although
the OAM-based features share many of the same settings, the dying
gasp feature has more stringent hardware and software
requirements, as explained in that procedure.
You can use either the menus or the web browser windows to configure
the line cards. This procedure uses the menus.
To configure an AT-CM Line Card for the OAM-based features:
1. Install the AT-CM Line Card in a Converteon chassis that has the
AT-CV5M02 Management Card and start a local management session
or a remote Telnet management session on the chassis.
2. Wait one minute for the AT-CM Line Card to initialize its AT-S73
Management Software.
3. From the Main Menu select Module Status and Configuration.
