Stinger OC12-ATM Trunk Module Guide
Configuring the OC12-ATM Trunk Module
Introducing the OC12-ATM trunk module
Both OC12-ATM trunk modules are installed and configured in the same way.
Note
The OC12 trunk module is supported only on Stinger FS or Stinger FS+ units
equipped with version 2, or later, control modules.
Introducing the OC12-ATM trunk module
Stinger FS and FS+ units can fully support a maximum of one OC12 trunk module,
which is available in the following versions.
Note
The reach of the interface can be verified by checking the
reach-type
parameter in the
transceiver-info
subprofile of the
trunk-daughter-dev
profile, see
“Checking daughter card status” on page 22.
Installing an OC12-ATM trunk module
See the
Stinger Getting Started Guide
for installation instructions. A Stinger FS or FS+
chassis fully supports the installation of one OC12 trunk module per chassis.
After installing the OC12-ATM trunk module and connecting it to a link to an ATM
switch, you verify connection by checking the status lights. You then configure the
physical link. Use a status profile to display the state of the OC12 line and any error
conditions.
OC12-ATM trunk module specifications
The OC12-ATM trunk module provides two 622-Mbps ports for optical connections.
Each port supports the STS-12c and the STM-4 interface standards. Communication
between an active OC12-ATM trunk module port and the active Stinger control
module takes place directly over the Stinger back plane.
You can configure each port as one of the following:
■
User-to-Network Interface (UNI)
■
Private Network to Network Interface (PNNI) connection
■
Direct trunk
