Network Interface Options (4 of 7)

Management Link

Possible Settings: Disable, FDL, DDL
Default Setting: Disable

Specifies the network management link.

NOTES: – If both FDL and DDL are not available selections, the configuration

option is set to Disable and cannot be edited.

– If Management Link for the local T1 access unit is set to FDL or DDL,

configure the remote T1 access unit with the same settings.

Disable – Does not use the management link.

FDL – Uses FDL as the management link. FDL allows IP management traffic to flow
over the 4 kbps data link provided by the FDL. FDL requires an end-to-end FDL
connection and cannot be terminated within the network.

H

FDL does not appear if:

– Line Framing Format is set to D4.

– EDL on any synchronous data port is set to Enable.

DDL – Uses DDL as the management link.

H

DDL does not appear if all network time slots are assigned.

IP Address

Possible Settings: 000.000.000.000 – 223.255.255.255, Clear
Default Setting: 000.000.000.000

Specifies the internet protocol address for the management link.

H

IP Address only appears if Management Link is set to FDL or DDL.

000.000.000.000 – 223.255.255.255 – The IP address for the management link which
you can view or edit. The first digit (i.e.,

xxx.255.255.255) cannot be 0 or 127, or greater

than 223. However, 000.000.000.000 is valid, representing a null address.

Clear – Resets the IP address and fills the address with zeros.

Subnet Mask

Possible Settings: 000.000.000.000 – 255.255.255.255, Clear
Default Setting: 000.000.000.000

Specifies the subnet mask for the management link.

H

Subnet Mask only appears if Management Link is set to FDL or DDL.

000.000.000.000 – 255.255.255.255 – The subnet mask for the management link which
you can view or edit.

Clear – Resets the node subnet mask and fills the address with zeros
(i.e., 000.000.000.000). When the subnet mask is all zeros, the IP protocol creates a
default subnet mask based on the class of the IP address: Class A: 255.000.000.000,
Class B: 255.255.000.000, or Class C: 255.255.255.000.
