15.2. ETHMOD resource
	Chapter 15. ADSL/VDSL Ethernet modem

ETHMOD resource is used to supervise and configure Abilis Ethernet modems.

The requirement for a guaranteed correct behaviour is to have ONE modem for ONE Ethernet port.

For each ETH and ETHUSB resource present in configuration the ETHMOD resource configuration will offer a parameter to set the presence of a modem to supervise. Do not declare modem presence on resource where it is not present.

[08:14:24] ABILIS_CPX:s p ethmod res:eth-2 present:yes

COMMAND EXECUTED

[08:16:00] ABILIS_CPX:init res:ethmod

15.2.1. ETHMOD resource parameters

The ETHMOD resource is enabled by default for Abilis.

Use the following command to display the parameters of Ethmod resource:

[17:06:18] ABILIS_CPX:d p ethmod

RES:EthMod --------------------------------------------------------------------
Run    DESCR:Ethernet_Modems_Control
       LOG:DST              ACT:YES     ethmodlog:DFT       ethmodlogsize:100
       - Ethernet Modems ------------------------------------------------------
       RES:       PRESENT:   VPI:   VCI:
       ---------------------------------
       Eth-1      NO         8      35
       Eth-2      YES        8      35
       EthUsb-2   NO         8      35
       EthUsb-3   YES        8      35

The meaning:

LOG

State changes log and alarm generation [NO, D, S, A, L, T, ALL] [+E] (D: Debug Log; S: System Log; A: Alarm view; L: Local audible alarm; T: SNMP traps; +E: Extended Log of state changes, see ref. manual).

ACT

Operation activation [NO, YES].

ethmodlog

ETHMOD log events filter at system startup [ERR, INFO, DBG] or [DFT, FULL], where:

ERR, INFO, DBG filters can be joined using ',' (comma);
DFT: means ERR and INFO events;
FULL: means every type of event.

ethmodlogsize

ETHMOD Log size [20..1000 Kibyte].

RES

Ethernet resource [Eth-xxx, EthUsb-xxx]

	Note
	Read Only.

PRESENT

Modem presence [NO, YES].

When set to PRESENT:YES the modem is probed every 10 seconds with an ARP packets, and when discovered a TELNET session is started and the supervision starts. The probing ARP packets are never interrupted to permit handling of situations when more modems are more or less intentionally present.

VPI

ATM/ADSL Virtual Path Identifier [0..255]

VCI

ATM/ADSL Virtual Channel Identifier [32..65535].

	Note
	The only configurable parameters are the VPI/VCI for ADSL line, while for VDSL line it's all automatic.
