If it is off, check the cabling to the 10/100BASE port and to the hub or the NIC card in the PC to ensure it is secure. • Check the position of the MDI/MDI-X switch. Set the switch to MDI when connecting to a PC. Set the switch to MDI-X when connecting to a hub or router. • Check that you are using a Web browser (Netscape or Internet Explorer) version 4.0 or newer.
TECHNICAL REFERENCE 9 This chapter provides technical information about how your modem transmits data between users on your LAN and a service provider over the WAN. ADSL Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is the technology used to transmit data between the modem and service provider at the physical layer. It provides data at asymmetric rates so that downstream traffic from a service provider to you is faster than upstream traffic from you to the service provider.
ATM ATM cells in a Virtual Channel (VC). The Megabit Modem 400F has 32 VCs in the VP, which provides the 32 sessions. Mapping an ATM Session Your service provider will give you a VCI and VPI address for each session. The VCI address for each session (each session is a VC) can be a number from 32 up to a maximum of 255, with the first 32 numbers (0 through 31) reserved. The VCI value for each VC must be unique for each of the 32 sessions. The addresses range from 0 to 253 for VCI and 0 to 15 for VPI.
Chapter 9: Technical Reference RATE ADAPTIVE TRANSMISSION The following definitions are useful for understanding the operation of the Megabit Modem: • Bit Error Rate (BER) is the ratio of received bits that are in error relative to the total number of bits received, measured over time. For example, 10-7 BER means that on average one error occurs per 107 bits received. • Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) is the ratio (typically expressed in dB) of the received signal power to the received noise power.
Bridging and Routing BRIDGING AND ROUTING Bridging You can configure the Megabit Modem 400F as a bridge to forward Ethernet data based on MAC addresses. MAC Layer Bridging A bridge moves information across an internetwork from a source to a destination at the link layer (of an OSI reference model). The information is sent to a physical address known as a Media Access Control (MAC) address. The Megabit Modem 400F provides transparent Ethernet MAC-layer bridging. The bridge learns up to 1024 addresses.
Chapter 9: Technical Reference Example LAN Physical Network This physical configuration is valid only when used with Spanning Tree to eliminate loops.
Bridging and Routing Routing You can configure the Megabit Modem 400F router to route Ethernet-encapsulated IP datagrams based on IP addresses. Use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) to automatically identify the route from the session on the Megabit Modem 400F to the destination. You can specify the direction and version of RIP that allows other routers to update their routing tables automatically (for example, information on how many hops between destinations).
Chapter 9: Technical Reference MANAGEMENT PROTOCOLS SNMP is used to configure system and bridge parameters, to monitor statistics, and to perform advanced management tasks. SNMP This management protocol specifies how to send information between a network management system (NMS) and managed devices on a network. Managed devices run a program called an agent. The agent interprets SNMP requests and responds to them.
DNS Resolution MIBs and Traps RFC 1213: "Management Information Base for Network Management of TCP/IP-Based Internet: MIB-II" RFC 1493: "Definition of Managed Objects for Bridges" RFC 1215: "A Convention for Defining Traps for Use with the SNMP" ADSL MIB PairGain Agent MIB PairGain Tiger MIB DNS RESOLUTION If you want Domain Name System (DNS) resolution, you need to specify the IP address for a device to be the DNS resolver.

GLOSSARY D 10/100BASE-T The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) 802.3 specification for Ethernet over thin coaxial cable. AAL5 ATM Adaptation Layer 5. ADSL Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line is a technology in which data is transferred from the service provider to the subscriber at up to 7.552 Mbps, and transferred from subscriber to service provider at up to 928 Kbps. ADSL is the implementation of the physical layer for transmission of data.
92 community string A text string required for an SNMP trap to be received by a trap receiver(s). Also, a text string that identifies an SNMP community and is associated with specific access rights (read-only or read/write). CRC Cyclic Redundancy Check is a method used to verify the accuracy of data transmission. DMT Discrete Multi-Tone is a modulation coding for an ADSL line. DMT is the modulation technology used for the Megabit Modem 400F ADSL.
Appendix D: Glossary MIB Management Information Base is a set of variables that define the configuration and status parameters for network management. Network management stations can retrieve information from and write information to an MIB. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) specifies standard MIBS for certain types of devices, ensuring any NMS can manage the devices. Vendors can specify proprietary MIBs for their devices to fit specific needs.
94 SEF Severely Errored Frames is the incoming signal has at least four consecutive errored framing patterns. SES Severely Errored Seconds is the seconds during which more than 2,500 bipolar errors are detected on the line. session The time during which two computers maintain a communication connection. An example is a connection configured between the Megabit Modem 400F and the service provider.
Appendix D: Glossary VCI Virtual Channel Identifier is a 16-bit field addressing identifier in the header of an ATM cell used to route cell traffic. It identifies a particular VC link for a given VP. VCMUX Virtual Channel Multiplexer-based encapsulation used for networks with large numbers of virtual channels making it practical to carry a single protocol per virtual channel. VC A Virtual Channel is a logical connection in the ATM network over which ATM cells are transmitted.
