Network Diagram
Figure C-1 illustrates an example network of Ericsson DSL equipment. A Public Ethernet Manager (PEM) terminal communicates with an Ethernet Controller Node (here an ECN320), which in turn aggregates traffic from one or more Ethernet DSLAM Nodes (here an EDN312xp DSLAM). The DSLAM, in turn, communicates with an HM340d home access gateway (HAG).
Table C-1 lists the VLANs, their descriptions, and addresses for the ECN320 and EDN312xp DSLAM. Table C-2 lists the configuration parameters for the HM340d.

Configuring the Switch
To configure the Ericsson ECN320 switch, use Hyperterminal or a similar application to set parameters as follows:
To save the completed configuration, use the following command:
config save-configuration
Configuring the DSLAM

Note
Configuring the HAG
Two files are used to configure the Ericsson HM340d HAG:
•
•
Note
Because the HAG configuration files used in the solution are not the Ericsson defaults, you must edit the default files to configure the HAG to forward the three VLANs and services. This information is part of the DSLAM service configurations, and must also be included in the HAG configuration.
Note
Edit the default files to conform to the following.
atm.conf
The following shows the atm.conf file used for both user profiles.
# atm.conf -- ATM PVC configuration# Each line in this file will result in a ATM PVC being configured, and on this PVC ethernet frames will be bridged (RFC 2684).# ATM PVC Interface number 0 (zero) is the management PVC.PVC VPI VCI Encap Service Class Parms----------------------------------------------------------0 12 35 llc nrtvbr 300 150 101 8 35 llc ubr2 0 35 llc ubr3 0 43 llc ubr_pcr 6004 0 51 llc cbr 3005 8 51 llc nrtvbr 600 300 106 8 43 llc rtvbr 600 300 107 8 59 llc rtvbr 1200 600 10bridge.conf
The following shows the bridge.conf file used for Profile1.
# bridge.conf -- virtual/software ethernet bridge configuration# The information in this file determines which logical ethernet bridges should be present.# Each line is a bridge with the members as a space-separated list, were each member is either a PVC or a tagged or untagged ethernet port. A PVC member is listed as "pvcN" where N is the ATM PVC identifier from the /etc/atm.conf configuration file. An untagged port member is listed as "portN", and a tagged port as "tagged-portN", were N is the port number (0-3, inclusive).Each logical port (PVC, tagged or untagged ethernet port) may only be a member of one bridge. If one untagged port (for example "port2") is used, the corresponding tagged port ("tagged-port2") may not be used, and vice versa.# VLAN id Members300 port0 pvc1100 port2 pvc7200 port1 pvc4The following shows the bridge.conf file used for Profile2. Note the addition of port 3.

Line configurations are required to establish communication between the DSLAM and the HAG. A separate line configuration is used be each profile.
Using the Ericsson PEM configuration application, choose Service Configuration > DSL Line, and set (or confirm) parameters are as follows:
Creating Services and Profiles
Using the PEM configuration application, create services and user profiles for video, voice, and data. These services create the bridge between the Ethernet VLAN services for video, voice and data and the ATM PVC (VPI/VCI pairs).
Creating Services and Profiles for Video
Creating a Video Service
To create a video service using the Ericsson PEM configuration application, choose Service Configuration > Action > Create New, and set (or confirm) parameters as follows:
Creating Video Bandwidth Profiles
Create two different bandwidth configurations (profiles) for video. These can be applied to the video service configuration depending on the profile the user is using.
To create video bandwidth profiles using the Ericsson PEM configuration application, choose Service Configuration > Video > Bandwidth > Create, and set parameters as follows:

Creating Services and Profiles for Voice
Creating a Voice Service
To create a voice service using the Ericsson PEM configuration application, choose Service Configuration > Action > Create New, and set (or confirm) parameters as follows:
Creating a Voice Bandwidth Profile
Create a single bandwidth configuration (profile) for voice. This can be applied to the voice service configuration for both Profile 1 and Profile 2.
To create video bandwidth profiles using the Ericsson PEM configuration application, choose Service Configuration > Voice > Bandwidth > Create, and set parameters as follows:
Creating Services and Profiles for Data
Creating a Data Service
To create a data service using the Ericsson PEM configuration application, choose Service Configuration > Action > Create New, and set (or confirm) parameters as follows:
Note
Creating Data Bandwidth Profiles
Create two different bandwidth configurations (profiles) for data. These can be applied to the data service configuration depending on the profile the user is using.

Note
Creating an IP Filter
If a static IP address is used as part of a video, voice, or data service configuration, an IP filter must be applied for the static IP address to work. Ericsson does not provide a default filter that allows all addresses in the downstream direction to be passed through to the HAG. At least one IP address must be entered into the filter, with that IP address to be marked as "allow" or "deny." Because the range command is not supported in the filter configuration in the downstream direction, each address through which traffic is allowed to pass must be entered individually into the filter.
A workaround is to create a filter that denies only one IP address in the downstream direction. The IP address to deny can be any IP address that will not be used to send to, or receive from, the HAG attached to the DSLAM line port for this service configuration. This solution is easier than attempting to add all the IP addresses of all devices that will be sending to, or receiving from, the device attached to the port of the HAG.
Do the following to create an IP filter.
