1 Single Port Backup and Terminal Adapter Applications Leased Line Backup The Single Port represents Controlware s latest generation of backup products. The is ideally suited for backup applications in a wide range of network scenarios with backup data rates ranging from 64 Kbit/s up to bit/s. Features such as remote management and configuration via software download, integrated SNP agent and Ethernet interface make the the ideal equipment for backing up dedicated leased lines in Wide Area Networks (WANs). High Speed Terminal Adapter By using dial up, the ensures the availability of wide area networks. This is achieved automatically and cost effectively. Due to its modular design the can be adapted to the customer s actual bandwidth requirements and can be upgraded to accommodate higher data rates. Thus, the also responds best to the demands of carriers offering services. The can be fully integrated into Controlware s TAXI anager network management systems, as well as into the umbrella network management systems Tivoli NetView and HP OpenView. The device can, in fact, be easily integrated into any network management system, which supports the SNP V1 standard. access_the_world

2 Single Port Backup and Terminal Adapter Applications Features Backup The ensures the availability of important links and vital applications. As soon as the leased line fails, the immediately establishes a backup path via at speeds ranging from 64 Kbit/s up to bit/s or even offers full backup of E1/T1 lines at speeds up to bit/s ( E1). The constantly monitors the leased line and is protocol transparent. Thus, no protocol-dependent configuration or topology and routing changes are necessary. Full bandwidth of the leased line is available as no data is used by the for monitoring. The automatically detects a failure of the leased line using a combination of various call criteria and establishes an alternate connection via. When a backup is in progress, the continues to monitor the leased line, thus ensuring that recovery from a backup is also automatic. Disaster Recovery The provides backup and disaster recovery within the same unit. For example, if it is not possible to establish a connection between the two sites being monitored, the automatically dials alternate locations (e.g. a backup computing centre). Local and Remote Software Download The operating software of the or parts of it can be downloaded to any remotely installed device without requiring the presence of service personnel. A download of the operating software or parts of it can be carried out locally via a serial interface and remotely via the network or IP based via the Ethernet Interface. Two complete software versions can be stored in the internal FLASH. ultiple Protocols The allows the integration of different protocols into a single operating software. Corporations with global networks only need one product revision as the protocol can be selected via configuration parameters. Variable Interfaces The is available with various interfaces. Depending on the requirements users can select modules equipped with one or more BRI S or U interfaces, one PRI interface for E1 lines and one PRI interface for T1 lines. Automatic Line Verification In order to ensure the availability of the path, an line verification test checks automatically the availability of the network. The connection awaiting backup simply remains idle. During this time, failures of the path itself may go unnoticed. In order to provide an early warning of impending problems, the conducts a simulated backup at regular intervals. Test data is exchanged, but the data stream is not actually switched over. Any connecting problems are forwarded to the network manager and are also stored in local log files. Leased Line Backup Leased Line BRI/PRI BRI/PRI

In addition, each unit may be assigned a password, which is exchanged inband in each B- channel during connection set-up. This function is especially important for international connections, as gateways often delete all calling party information, thereby rendering all other access protection schemes useless. BONDING Compliant Channel aggregation takes place in accordance with the Bandwidth ON Demand Interoperability Group ode 1 de facto standard. TAXI-System Compatibility The is fully compatible to Controlware s TAXI-System and may thus be connected using a primary rate interface and the DBB odule for applications or the Quad E1/T1 odule in conjunction with the IX odule for G.703/4 applications. This is useful in star points where several connect into one central TAXI-System. ultiple Time Windows The uses programmable time windows to allow backup operation during user specified times. This feature prevents call charges being accrued during periods when data transfer is not vital. Remote Supervisor The features an easy-to-use supervisor port, which can also be accessed remotely via. With Controlware offering fully compatible remote supervisory access for all units, an may be accessed via another or the TAXI-System. The three-level password protection scheme, the command file editor and the online help facilities are uniformly available in all Controlware products. User-friendly Windows Based Configuration anager With the, Controlware introduces a new configuration manager, which allows the user to configure the via a Windows based user-friendly software module.

4 Integrated SNP Agent The integrated SNP agent supports the standard IB II and the Controlware specific IB. All configuration parameters as well as all alarm and status messages are supported via the integrated SNP agent. The can thus be integrated into every SNP network management platform. As a communication interface, either the optional Ethernet interface or the SLIP (serial line IP) port can be used. Network anagement The can be managed remotely together with the TAXI-System and IDB dial-backup adapters using Controlware s network management system TAXI anager, which runs on standard umbrella NS platforms such as HP OpenView or Tivoli NetView. The TAXI anager enables convenient configuration and monitoring of all TAXI-System applications. Access to the NS can be supported via, serial line IP (SLIP) and via Ethernet. The standard IP addressing allows for full integration of the NS data with any existing IP network. For more information refer to Network anagement literature. Configuration anager Terminal Adapter The single port is also available as a multispeed Terminal Adapter without the backup option. This version is ideally suited for high speed dial up applications, such as Video Conferencing, High Quality Video Surveillance or LAN Interconnection. The Terminal Adapter version has the same modular platform and can be easily upgraded as soon as the speed requirements change. Full network management support and windows based configuration position the TA as a versatile professional Terminal Adapter which can be combined with the Controlware TAXI System in order to concentrate many dial up connections on one central location.
