splitter at the local end, and a microfilter at the remote end, of the ADSL
connection.
3.2.3 Port Mode
Default: Adaptive
3.2.3.1 Adaptive
An AIM24000 port set to port mode adaptive will automatically train up to the
best possible speed supported by the AIM24000, the ADSL modem at the
remote end, and the copper cable pair connecting the two.
3.2.3.2 Fixed
An AIM24000 port set to port mode fixed will maintain consistant upstream and
downstream bandwidths as specified by the user.
3.2.3.3 Fixed Adaptive
An AIM24000 port set to port mode fixed adaptive will automatically train up to
the best possible speed supported by the AIM24000, the ADSL modem at the
remote end, and the copper cable pair connecting the two, within the confines
of user-specified maximum upstream and downstream bandwidths.
3.2.3.4 Off
An AIM24000 port set to port mode off has been administratively turned off.
3.2.4 Bandwidth and Distance
The default bandwidth for AIM24000 ADSL connections is Adaptive as defined in
section 3.2.3.1. The eventual outcome could be any combination of existing possible
upstream and downstream bandwidths, and may or may not be reflected in the
following tables. For AIM24000 ports configured at Fixed or Fixed Adaptive port
modes, bandwidth parameters must be manually specified.
The distance capabilities listed in the following tables assume the use of 26 American
Wire Gauge (AWG) cable; connections made with cable of a greater gauge (e.g., 24
AWG) will link up at greater distances. The AIM24000 may not link up if the cable is
in poor condition or if the cable distance is greater than a particular bandwidth will
support. Remote ADSL modems determine bandwidth through their communication
with the AIM24000.
3.2.4.1 Full Rate ADSL2
3.2.4.1.1 G.DMT.BIS (ADSL2)
An AIM24000 port in ADSL2 mode is capable of reaching downstream
speeds of up to 11,937 kbps under optimal conditions.
NOTE The following tables show maximum possible distances for various sample combinations of upstream and
downstream bandwidths over a typical ADSL line. Data given is meant solely as a guide in determining achievable
distances at various bandwidth settings; these tables are NOT COMPREHENSIVE. The many possible combinations
of upstream and downstream bandwidths, along with attainable corresponding distances for each combination,
are far more numerous than that which is feasible to list here.

3.2.5 IP Range
IP Range 1 Default: 0.0.0.0 - 225.255.255.255
IP Range 2-4 Default: 0.0.0.0 - 0.0.0.0
IP Range filtering is user-defined via configurable starting and ending IP addresses
that specify an acceptable range of source IP addresses for incoming packets. Up to
four [4] IP ranges may be configured per port in NMS, up to two [2] IP ranges may be
configured per port via CLI or SNMP.
3.2.5.1 Single IP Address
Starting IP Address = Ending IP Address
An AIM24000 port configured with a single source IP address will only allow
packets with that specific IP address to traverse the port.
3.2.5.2 IP Address Range
Starting IP Address < Ending IP Address
An AIM24000 port configured with a source IP address range will allow packets
having an IP address within the specified range to traverse the port.
3.2.5.3 Full IP Address Range
Starting IP Address = 0.0.0.0
Ending IP Address = 255.255.255.255
An AIM24000 port configured with the full range of source IP addresses will
allow packets with ANY source IP address to traverse the port.
3.2.6 VLAN
Default: 0 - 0 (off)
The AIM24000 complies with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.
(IEEE) 802.1Q Virtual Bridge Local Area Networks Standard. Virtual Local Area Network
(VLAN) start and end tags indicate the 802.1Q VLAN tag range to be supported for
each port. VLAN tags are the primary identifiers unless used in conjunction with a
Backbone-VLAN. Up to 10 Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) ranges may be specified
per port. The application of a port's VLAN configurations on the traffic attempting to
traverse that port depends upon the IP DSLAM management module model and
firmware revision, as well as the management platform (NMS, CLI or SNMP) that was
used to set the VLAN configurations. Refer to Section 4.1.3 (NMS), Section 4.2.2.6
(CLI) and/or Section 4.3.2 (SNMP) for further VLAN configuration information and to
your management module's Release Notes for revision capabilities. Configuration
options for each of the 10 possible VLAN ranges includes the following:
VLAN Off: Start Tag = 0, End Tag = 0
Single VLAN: Start Tag = End Tag
VLAN Range: Start Tag < End Tag
3.2.7 Backbone-VLAN
Default: 0 (disabled)
Used in conjunction with standard VLAN tags, a single Backbone-VLAN tag will
become the primary identifier, allowing a router with backbone capabilities to make
Page 19 of 44AIM24000 Installation 210-0000056 rev 01

smarter decisions in directing traffic to the proper network. Once a packet has
reached the proper network, its standard VLAN tags will direct it to the appropriate
port.
3.2.8 VLAN Priority
Default: 0 (no priority)
In compliance with the IEEE 802.1p Standard (a subset of 802.1Q), there are eight
levels of prioritization designated numerically within a range of 0 to 7. The
application of a port's VLAN Priority configuration on the traffic attempting to
traverse that port depends upon the IP DSLAM management module model and
firmware revision, as well as the management platform (NMS, CLI or SNMP) that was
used to set the port's VLAN configurations. Refer to Section 4.1.3 (NMS), Section
4.2.2.8 (CLI) and/or Section 4.3.2 (SNMP) for further VLAN Priority configuration
information and to your management module's Release Notes for revision
capabilities.
0 = no priority
1 = the lowest priority
7 = the highest priority
3.2.9 Protocol
Default: All
Traffic protocol is indicated by a 2-byte (hexidecimal) Ethertype code in packet
headers.
3.2.9.1 All
An AIM24000 port configured with Protocol All will allow packets with all
Ethertype protocols to traverse the port.
3.2.9.2 Select
An AIM24000 port configured with Protocol Select allows specification of up to
four [4] Ethertype protocols; only packets with the specified Ethertype(s) will be
allowed to traverse the port.
3.2.10 Flood
Default: Uplink
Flood refers to the method in which interface modules handle unknown unicasts
(traffic directed to a single MAC Address), unknown broadcasts (traffic directed to all
MAC Addresses) and unknown multicasts (traffic directed to multiple MAC Addresses)
for each port.
NOTE A Backbone-VLAN tag cannot be used independently; standard VLAN tags must also be configured. Additionally,
the DSLAM uplink connection must run through a router in order for a Backbone-VLAN tag to function.
NOTE Not all IP DSLAM management modules provide the Protocol Select option in NMS, neither is the Select option
available via CLI or SNMP. In these instances you will be required to choose between All or IP, where IP indicates
that only Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), Internet Protocol (IP) and Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) traffic
will be allowed to traverse the port.
