MCC Card

FMT-SUB

This parameter is used to indicate the format of the 64 ports on the sub-board. When bxr is
selected, ports 65 through 128 are configured to B4R (E1) or B7R (T1). When hdlc is selected,
ports 65 through 128 are configured to 64 kbps. (See note below for exception.)

Note:

The only invalid configuration for FMT-MAIN and FMT-SUB occurs when
FMT-MAIN = bxr and FMT-SUB = hdlc. This configuration is not supported.

IF-TYPE

The IF-TYPE parameter determines the IP addressing scheme to be used by all interfaces
(except the Ethernet interface, which is always numbered). The default option is unnum,
which causes the interfaces to be unnumbered. When configured in this manner, the MCC is
addressed through the global IP address of the Ethernet interface, regardless of the originating
interface, and the IP address of all interfaces (except the Ethernet interface) is determined by
the interface on the remote end. Selecting unnum may help conserve IP address, but may not
be compliant with the HP OpenView network management system.

The num option allows for numbered interfaces. When this option is selected, each interface
is assigned a local IP address on the same network as (but different from) the remote device.
Two broadcast IP addresses are also reserved for each interface, for a total of four IP addresses
per port. Numbered interfaces are industry-standard, and are compliant with the HP
OpenView network management system.
