Why You Should Read This Reference

This Reference has been developed to familiarise you with the hardware

features of Network Service Modules (NSMs). The Reference provides

information that will assist you with the process of managing and servicing an

NSM. For information about installing an NSM, see the Network Service Module

Quick Install Guide.

The Reference also introduces Port Interface Card (PIC) expansion options.

Detailed information on PICs can be found in the Port Interface Card Hardware

Reference. This Reference and the PIC Reference can be found on the CD-ROM

bundled with every switch or router, or at www.alliedtelesyn.co.nz/support/

support.html.

This Reference does not cover software configuration or physical installation procedures.

For information on software, refer to the Software Reference for your switch or router.

For information on installing an NSM, refer to the Network Service Module Quick

Install Guide. These guides and references can be found on the CD-ROM bundled with

NSM-compatible switches or routers, or at www.alliedtelesyn.co.nz/support/

support.html.

Where To Find More Information

There are several sources of further information:

■The Network Service Module Quick Install Guide, which outlines the

procedure for installing NSMs.

■The Hardware and Software References for your switch or router, which

provide information on related hardware and software features.

■The Port Interface Card Quick Install Guide, which outlines the procedure for

installing PICs; and the Port Interface Card Hardware Reference, which

provides detailed information on PICs.

All of these documents can be found on the CD-ROM bundled with your

switch or router, or at www.alliedtelesyn.co.nz/support/support.html.

Compatible Base Units For NSMs

Table 1 on page 5 lists NSM-ready products and indicates which NSM model

can be used in each.

1. Maximum DS3 packet forwarding rates are achieved only when the AT-AR048 is installed in a Rapier

24iwhose serial number ends with the letter N or higher. If maximum DS3 performance is not

required, the AT-AR048 can be installed in any Rapier 24iwhose serial number ends in J, K, L, or M.

The serial number can be found on the underside of the switch (see Figure1 on page5).

Figure 1: Serial number label, as found on underside of switch.

What NSMs Do

NSMs are expansion options for those switch and router models that have an

NSM bay. NSMs slot into a base-unit switch or router and either directly

provide additional WAN interfaces, or provide multiple slots where PICs (with

WAN interfaces) can be added.

AT-AR040 NSM

The AT-AR040 provides four Port Interface Card (PIC) slots (Figure 2 on

page 7).

Figure 2: AT-AR040 NSM with three PICs.

This NSM supports combinations of the following PICs (with a maximum of

two E1/T1/PRI cards):

• AT-AR020 PRI E1/T1 (Primary Rate ISDN)1

• AT-AR021 (S) BRI-S/T (Basic Rate ISDN S/T)

• AT-AR021 (U) BRI-U (Basic Rate ISDN U)

• AT-AR023 SYN (Synchronous RS-232/X21/V35 DCE/DTE to 2Mps)

• AT-AR024 ASYN4 (Four Asynchronous ports)

1. Up to two PRI E1/T1 PIC cards (AT-AR020) can be installed in the NSM. A

maximum of 32 TDM slots are allowed in each NSM row, and the maximum

aggregate bandwidth for each row is 2.6 Mbps. If two PRI E1/T1 PICs are

installed, the first must be in the lower row (bay 0 or 1), and the second must be

in the upper row (bay 2 or 3). If an AT-AR020 E1/T1 PRI PIC is installed in one

of the rows in the NSM and operating in E1 mode, then this row cannot also

have an AT-AR021(S) BRI-S/T PIC or an AT-AR021(U) BRI-U PIC installed.

AT-AR022 ETH PICs and AT-AR026 4ETH PICs are not recommended for use in the

NSM PIC bays, as performance of these interfaces is likely to be reduced and packet loss

may occur.

Interface numbering for AT-AR040 NSMs

Interface numbering for each interface type (e.g., BRI, PRI, SYN, ETH, PORT)

begins at 0 on the base switch or router and continues until all interfaces of that

type on the base unit are numbered. For AR700 Series routers, the numbering

then continues with the PIC interfaces installed directly in the router’s PIC

bays, starting at PIC bay 0. For switches and routers, the numbering then

continues with the interfaces installed in the NSM, starting with NSM PIC bay

0, and ending with NSM PIC bay 3.

It is recommended that PICs be installed in the router’s PIC bays and NSM’s

PIC bays in the above sequential order, so that interface numbering is not

changed when a new PIC is installed.

AT-AR041 and AT-AR042 NSMs

The AT-AR041 NSM provides eight Basic Rate ISDN S/T WAN ports (Figure 3

on page 8), while the AT-AR042 NSM provides four Basic Rate ISDN S/T WAN

ports (Figure 4 on page 8). In both cases the ports use RJ-45 connectors and

provide TE interfaces. There are two status LEDs per port (Table 3 on page 20).

AT-AR041 and AT-AR042 NSMs support point-to-point links. Point to multi-point

links are not supported.

Figure 3: AT-AR041 NSM.

Figure 4: AT-AR042 NSM.

Basic Rate ISDN Interfaces

AT-AR041 and AT-AR042 NSMs provide Basic Rate ISDN (BRI S/T) interfaces,

which support two 64kbit/s channels and one 16kbit/s D channel.

Both BRI NSMs support only TE mode. The switch or router should be

configured as a TE for normal operation.

Board-mounted jumpers determine the interface termination. By default, the

jumpers are set in the Terminated position (bridging terminals 2 and 3) when

NSMs leave the factory (Figure 5 on page 9). To set the line pairs to Not

Terminated, remove the jumper and replace it so that it bridges terminals 1 and

2. If the building wiring provides the correct termination for an ISDN TE-to-NT

circuit, the jumper should be set in the Not Terminated position.

If the building wiring provides the correct termination for an ISDN TE-to-NT

circuit, the jumper should be set in the NotTerminated position

The Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) chapter of the Software Reference

for your switch or router has additional information on termination of ISDN

lines.

If you are unsure whether to terminate the line or not, contact your ISDN service

provider or your Authorised Allied Telesyn distributor or reseller.

The pinout of the BRI interface is shown in Table 2 on page 10.

(Factory default)

There are two jumpers per port. The AT-AR041 NSM,

therefore, has sixteen jumpers, while the AT-AR042 NSM has

eight jumpers. Each pair of jumpers set the Termination for the

port that they are closest to.

ISDN S/T Interface Cables

Figure 6 on page 10 shows how to wire a cable to connect a Basic Rate Interface

(BRI) to the ISDN network terminating equipment (NT).

Figure 6: Pin wiring diagram for an ISDN Basic Rate straight-through Interface

cable.

Testing a BRI NSM

A Test Facility is built into all switch and router software. The Test Facility is

designed to test physical interfaces. Testing can be performed while the switch

or router is operational, but any interfaces being tested are dedicated to the Test

Facility. The Test Facility can be thought of as a specialised interface module

like PPP or Frame Relay.

When testing BRI interfaces, the Test Facility is used in conjunction with a BRI

S/T loopback plug. A loopback plug must be inserted into each interface that

you wish to test. Figure 7 on page 11 shows how to wire the loopback plug.
