1. About the FrameSaver SLV

To obtain a Feature Activation Certificate, provide the model to be upgraded, your
OpenLane system license key number, and the number of FrameSaver units to be
upgraded to SLM capability. You can order the certificate for a single unit or for
many units. Your Feature Activation Certificate will include an Activation Certificate
Number, the Feature Group Number for the additional SLM features, your
OpenLane license key number, and the number of device activations ordered.
When the Feature Activation Certificate arrives, add the Activation Certificate
Number to your OpenLane SLM application’s database. Activations can occur at
any time, for as many units as desired, until no activations remain for the
certificate. When ready to activate units, simply select the units to be activated and
schedule the activations. The activations occur when scheduled, and OpenLane
updates the certificate information. The OpenLane system also provides a
Certificate Summary Report to assist you in the management of the certificate.
FrameSaver Diagnostic Feature Set
A FrameSaver SLV unit with the basic diagnostic feature set provides the following:
Easy Installation.
Provides a straightforward installation menu that requires
minimal configuration to get the unit up and running quickly, and to set up
remote configuration and management via Telnet access from the NOC
(Network Operations Center).
Frame Relay Aware Management.
Supports diagnostic and network
management features over the frame relay network. The unit’s frame relay
capability also supports:
— Inband management channels over the frame relay network using
dedicated PVCs.
— Unique nondisruptive diagnostics.
— CIR monitoring on a PVC basis.
— Multiple PVCs on an interface.
— Multiplexing management PVCs with user data PVCs.
— Multiplexing multiple PVCs going to the same location onto a single
network PVC.
Router Independence.
Unique diagnostics, performance monitoring,
PVC-based in-band network management, and SNMP connectivity is not
dependent upon external routers, cables, or LAN adapters.
Inverse ARP and Standard RIP Support.
Provides Inverse ARP (Address
Resolution Protocol) support so the frame relay router at one end of a
management PVC can acquire the IP address of a FrameSaver unit at the
other end of the PVC. Standard RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows the
router to automatically learn the routes to all FrameSaver units connected to
that FrameSaver unit.
Security.
Provides multiple levels of security to prevent unauthorized access
to the unit.
