Aethra D2061 lite User manual

OVERVIEW

The D2061 has been specifically realized for ADSL lines and turns out to be

one of the smallest, lightest and easy to handle devices on the market.

Thanks to the ‘Universal Modem’ feature, this tester is able to simulate the

user’s modem and host checking each critical point of an ADSL connection

and obtaining a complete set of parameters such as line bit rate and

occupation capacity, but also connection bit rate both Fast and Interleaved

path, noise margin and bit per tone allocation.

Like all the measurement devices made by Aethra®, it offers helpful

features for the technician in installation, maintenance and troubleshooting

phases.

The graphic user interface, common to the test instruments family of new

generation made by Aethra®, satisfies all the user’s needs. Navigating

through the various menus is both easy and immediate thanks to the bright,

back-lit, high resolution display as well as the zoom feature.

The features PREDEFINED TESTS and HISTORY, are used to manage and

store personalized test setups and to recall the results of each test

performed. This, together with the possibility to create a personal most

used tests list, make the technician daily tasks simpler by avoiding possible

setup errors and allowing also subsequent analysis of the results obtained.

The Smart Status™ feature allows the modem, the line and the device

status to be displayed immediately. In particular, is shown the number of

bits per tone assigned both in graphical and tabular format, the error

count, events and anomalies on the line, the current and historical alarm

status and evolved statistics about ATM level.

Thanks to Smart Status™the user has all the necessary information at a

glance, just by pushing a button.

BACKGROUND MONITOR

The device captures and decodes all

modem events. During the active phase of

the connection, all the AAL-5 packets are

captured as well.

Moreover, it is possible to capture and

decode communication protocol events

over ISDN D channel1.

In POTS mode, the D2061 is able to perform

high impedance monitoring of POTS2events.

Advanced analysis through the PC software3

issued with the device, helps to solve

also more complex ADSL connections

problems.

•Physical layer monitoring with alarms

and error checks

•Line events analysis

•AAL-5 encapsulation decoding

•D

1channel and POTS2line monitoring

•Real time and off-line decoding

•Capturing filters

•G.826/M.2100 statistics information

CONNECTION

Through this test, it is possible to control all

ADSL connection data both for Upstream

and Downstream sides.

The costumer’s contractual parameters

verification is immediate and easily

interpretable.

•ATM Fast/Interleaved bit rate

•ATM maximum line rate

•Relative capacity

•Noise margin

•Attenuation

ATM 5

Whit the use of this test, it is possible to

verify the correct working of the ATM layer,

up to the ATM termination unit.

This test allows OAM as well asAAL-5 cells

generation to be performed with response

times (ms), errors and statistics5.

•OAM cells generation, F4 and F5 type

•AAL-5 packets generation test

•Loop-back OAM cells management

•Programmable number of Ping requests

•Errors and statistics

•Waiting response time (sec.)

IP 6

Thanks to IP PING test, the D2061, checks

the connection to the Internet Provider,

whether a remote host is reachable or not

and the relative response times6.

Moreover, all the information from the

server such as messages, local, remote

and server IP addresses and IP TRACE

ROUTING is provided. This allows the

correct connection settings of the user to be

checked. The IPGENERATE TRAFFIC test,

allows a data transfer between hosts to be

simulated. This test, more exhaustive than

IP PING, is able to measure the throughput

of the connection in progress.

•IPBridge, IP Router, PPPoE, PPPoA

•

PPP, IP, UDP, DHCP, DNS, ICMP, TFTP support

•PAP and CHAP (MD5) authentication

•Static and Dynamic IP address

•Gateway management and address

•Settable packet length and testing file

•IPstatistics and response times

•Throughput calculation

•IPaddress book, password and User ID

for immediate login to Internet

•IPTrace Routing with 30 hops disovering

BER

Equipped with an appropriate option1, the

D2061 can perform specific tests over S/T-

Bus for line quality verification (BERT) and

for ISDN basic access general control.

•G.821

•Different test pattern

•Test modes End-to-End and Selfcall

•Errors injection

ETHERNET 7

The D2061 is able to replace the user‘s

modem and to permit the Internet navigation

by the use of a PC with 10Base-T network

connection.

With this option, it is possible to verify the

connection throughput thanks to the exaustive

statistics features available for physical,

ATM and Ethernet layers.

The powerful capturing feature of the single

AAL-5 frames and the analysis facilities of

PC108 software, allow to solve all the

problems regarding connections to ISPs,

without using expensive systems

•Internet access troubleshooting

•Host and Modem simulation

•Advanced statistics information

MISCELLANEOUS

Thanks to the integrated microphone and

loudspeaker the D2061 is able to simulate

both analogue POTS2and ISDN1telephones.

With the AUTOMATIC TESTS the user can

quickly verify the ISDN line under control

and, if not otherwise specified, the device

generates automatically a series of calls

and verifies the complete status of the line.
