2 — Software Introduction 1.5 General Overview The software architecture of the UniPhyer LB-UA2348 is shown in the figure below. It can be divided into three layers: the management layer, the OAM&P layer, and the firmware layer. Figure 0-1 Management Software Model As in the figure, CLI shell, SNMP agent, and WEB server are in the top-most layer (management layer) of the system software and offering OAM&P function of the UniPhyer based on the conceptual management features as follows:...
1.5.1 Features of Management Interface Support CLI, SNMP (v1, v2c), and web-based GUI management interface through both in-band and out-band channels Support up to 10 CLI sessions at the same time The in-band management connection of the system is the highest priority of all supported in-band traffic categories via the GBE trunk ports Support out-band management via: - 10/100 base-T Ethernet via MGMT port...
2 — Software Introduction 1.6 Configuration Management The configuration management contains the following aspects: 1. System Setup, such as setup for management IP address/net mask, GBE interface (including to enable/disable and query the administrative/operational status of the trunk port), line port (including to enable/disable/reset ADSL port, query the administrative/operational status of the port, and bind profiles on a per port basis), CLI session and timeout, Cluster, SNTP, IP routes, and user administration (including login authorization and provides three security...

ADSL Configuration Configuration for an ADSLx user port is provisioned by the parameter set, which is a group of attributes that determine the user port behaviors; and we call it as profile. The UniPhyer LB-UA2348 provides a profile-based provisioning per the definition of ITUT G997.1 and RFC 2662 for ADSL line configuration data and a mechanism to associate the ADSL port to these profiles.
2 — Software Introduction 1.6.1 Factory Default Configuration The UniPhyer LB-UA2324 and LB-UA2348 has a factory default configuration that will allow out of the box functionality for most applications of the UniPhyer and PhyAdapters. Specifically, o Interface: MGMT port IP Address is 192.168.1.1, GBE in-band IP address is 192.168.100.1, GBE1 port as Uplink trunk port and GBE2 port as User (daisy chain) port.

1.8 Fault Management Fault management is conceptually partitioned into two levels: the system top level, and interface-specific level. Both levels are alarm-level configurable and can be Major and Minor. All the alarms are mask-able. Fault management provides the alarm output through visible indicator (LED). The alarm/status indications are automatically generated as a result of certain events/conditions.

1.9 Loopback Testing The UniPhyer LB-UA2348 supports ATM and ADSL PhyAdapter loop diagnostics. ATM: The system provides F5 end-to-end or segment loopback. ADSL: The system provides Dual Ended Loop Testing (DELT), known as the PhyAdapter Lop Test, for each ADSL line on a per port basis, according to the definition per section 8.12.3 of ITUT G992.3. The following test parameters are supported: - Channel Characteristics Function H(f) per subcarrier (CCF-ps), - Quiet Line Noise PSD QLN(f) per subcarrier (QLN-ps),...
2 — Software Introduction 1.10 Cluster Feature The UniPhyer LB-UA2348 supports Cluster feature that can make a group of NEs (network elements) work together as a single NE from the management point of view. Operators can manage the NEs in a cluster, called cluster nodes, via the same single IP address in terms of CLI, Web-based GUI or SNMP based management interfaces.
