Feature Overview

G.SHDSL is ATM-based, multirate, high-speed (up to 2.3 MB), symmetrical digital subscriber line technology for data transfer between a single customer premises equipment (CPE) subscriber and a central office (CO). G.SHDSL refers to the approved standard officially designated in ITU-T G.991.2.

The Cisco IAD2420 series IADs support G.SHDSL in the following models: IAD2424-8FXS, IAD2424-16FXS, IAD2424-16FXS8FXO, and IAD2424-1T1. These models are compatible with the Cisco 6160 and Cisco 6260 Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexers (DSLAM). The DSLAM must be equipped with compatible G.SHDSL line cards.

The Cisco IAD2424 IAD supports ATM Adaption Layer 2 (AAL2), ATM Adaption Layer 5 (AAL5), and quality of service (QoS) features for both voice and data services.

Benefits

Enables business class broadband service with voice integration, scalable performance, flexibility, and security.

Aggregates G.SHDSL and other transport options into a single box.

Provides G.SHDSL high-speed digital data transmissions between CPE and the CO.

Supports AAL2 and AAL5 services and applications (including voice), ATM class of service (constant bit rate [CBR], variable bit rate-nonreal time [VBR-nrt], variable bit rate-real time [VBR-rt], and unspecified bit rate [UBR and UBR+]).

Provides ATM traffic management and quality of service (QoS) features to enable service providers to manage their core ATM network infrastructures.

Restrictions

The wetting current function is not supported as part of G.SHDSL.

Configuring G.SHDSL on Cisco IAD2420 Series IADs (required)

Verifying ATM Configuration (optional)

Verifying Your Configuration (optional)

Configuring G.SHDSL on Cisco IAD2420 Series IADs

To configure G.SHDSL service on the Cisco IAD2420 series IAD that supports G.SHDSL, complete the following steps, beginning in global configuration mode:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1 

Router(config)# controller shdsl 0

Enters controller configuration mode and the controller number.

Step 2 

Router(config-ctrl)# mode atm

Enables ATM encapsulation and creates logical ATM interface 0. Controller framing is automatically set to Extended SuperFrame (ESF). The line code is automatically set to B8ZS.

Step 3 

Router(config-ctrl)# annex {a | b}

Specifies the regional operating parameters. Enter a for North America and b for Europe. The default is a.

Step 4 

Router(config-ctrl)# line-rate {auto | rate}

Specifies the DSL line rate for the SHDSL port. The range is 192 to 2312 kbps. The default is auto (negotiated between the SHDSL port and the DSLAM).

Note If different DSL line rates are configured at opposite ends of the DSL uplink, the actual DSL line rate is always the lower rate.

Note The maximum peak cell rate is 8 kbps less than the line rate.

 

Step 5 

Router(config-ctrl)# exit

Exits from controller configuration mode.

Step 6 

Router(config)# interface atm 0

Enters ATM configuration mode for interface ATM 0.

Step 7 

Router(config-if)# ip-address IP-address

Assigns an IP address to the DSL ATM interface.

Step 8 

Router(config-if)# atm ilmi-keepalive seconds

(Optional) Enables Integrated Local Management Interface (ILMI) keepalives.

If you enable ILMI keepalives without specifying the number of seconds, the default time interval is 3 seconds.

Step 9 

Router(config-if)# pvc [name] vpi/vci

Enters atm-virtual-circuit (interface-atm-vc) configuration mode, and configures a new ATM PVC by assigning a name (optional) and VPI/VCI numbers.

The default traffic shaping is UBR; the default encapsulation is AAL5+LLC/SNAP.

Step 10 

Router(config-if-vc)# protocol ip IP-address

(Optional) Enables IP connectivity and creates a point-to-point IP address for the VC.

Step 11 

Router(config-if-vc)# vbr-rt peak-rate average-rate burst

(Optional) Configures the PVC for real-time variable bit rate (VBR) traffic shaping.

Peak rate = peak information rate (PIR)

Average rate = average information rate (AIR)

Burst = burst size in cells

Step 12 

Router(config-if-vc)# encapsulation {aal1 | aal2 | aal5ciscoppp | aal5mux | aal5nlpid | aal5snap}

(Optional) Configures the ATM adaptation layer (AAL) and encapsulation type.

Use the aal2 keyword for AAL2

Use the aal5ciscoppp keyword for Cisco PPP over AAL5

Use the aal5mux keyword for AAL5+MUX

Use the aal5nlpid keyword for AAL5+NLPID

Use the aal5snap keyword for AAL5+LLC/SNAP (the default)

Step 13 

Router(config-if-vc)# exit

Exits from interface-ATM-VC configuration mode.

Step 14 

Router(config-if)# shutdown

Ensures that the ATM interface is shut down.

Step 15 

Router(config-if)# no shutdown

Activates the ATM interface.

Step 16 

Router(config-if)# exit

Exits from ATM interface configuration mode.

Step 17 

Router(config)# exit

Exits from global configuration mode.

Step 18 

Router> show interface atm 0

Verifies the ATM interface configuration.

Verifying ATM Configuration

You can verify the ATM interface configuration by doing the following:

To verify the ATM interface configuration, enter the show interface atm 0 command in EXEC mode.

Glossary

ADSL—Asymmetric DSL (ADSL) available through several telecommunications carriers to accommodate the need for increased bandwidth for Internet access and telecommuting applications.

ATM—Asynchronous Transfer Mode. International standard for cell relay in which multiple service types (such as voice, video, or data) are conveyed in fixed-length (53-byte) cells. Fixed-length cells allow cell processing to occur in hardware, thereby reducing transit delays. ATM is designed to take advantage of high-speed transmission media such as E3, SONET, and T3.

CLI—command line interface.

CO—central office. Local exchange (local switch) that terminates individual local telephone subscriber lines for switching and connects to the public network. Known as a class 5 switch office. For example, 5ESS by Lucent and DMS 100 by Nortel.

CPE—customer premises equipment. Devices such as channel service units, data service units, modems, and ISDN terminal adapters, required to provide an electromagnetic termination for wide-area network circuits before connecting to the router or access server. This equipment was historically provided by the telephone company, but is now typically provided by the customer in North American markets.

DSL—Digital Subscriber Line available through several telecommunications carriers to accommodate the need for increased bandwidth for Internet access and telecommuting applications.

FXO—Foreign Exchange Office. An FXO interface connects to a central office.

FXS—Foreign Exchange Station: An FXS interface connects directly to a standard telephone, supplying ring voltage, dial tone, and so on.

G.SHDSL—Multirate Symmetrical High-Speed Digital Subscriber Line.

IAD—integrated access device. A CPE device used to combine services from various sources onto a common platform for transmission on a common transport span. Typically, an IAD combines various voice and data services such as circuit-based services like traditional telephone service and packet-switched services such as frame relay or ATM.
