In this article, I will discuss how to configure IES-5005 DSLAM. For those who want to know about this DSLAM, you can read another article related to DSLAM (READ: What is IES-5005 Zyxel DSLAM ?).
CONFIGURATION GUIDE
Service Requirement :
- Service VLAN: 873
- Management Modem VLAN: 611
- Slot and Port : 3-42
CREATE VLAN
Create service VLAN for the customer VLAN 873.
IES-5005-DSLAM> vlan set 873 sub1 normal tag name CUSTOMER_1 lc 22
IES-5005-DSLAM> vlan set 873 sub2 normal tag name CUSTOMER_1 lc 22
IES-5005-DSLAM> vlan set 873 up1 fix tag name CUSTOMER_1 lc 22
IES-5005-DSLAM> vlan set 873 up2 fix tag name CUSTOMER_1 lc 22
Naming the VLAN description.
IES-5005-DSLAM> port name 3-42 CUSTOMER_1
Binding VLAN to the Port 3-42, VLAN 611 is Management Modem VLAN, VLAN 873 is customer service VLAN.
IES-5005-DSLAM> port pvc set 3-42-0/33 bridged llc 611 0 DEFVAL
IES-5005-DSLAM> port pvc set 3-42-1/34 bridged llc 873 0 DEFVAL
CHANGE PORT
Suppose slot 3 port 42 is broken, then the first step is needed to check port configuration first using this command.
IES-5005-DSLAM> port show 3-42
port 3-42
name : CUSTOMER 1
tel. no :
profile : Line_192
alrm prof-span : DEFVAL
alrm prof-stuc : DEFVAL
alrm prof-stur : DEFVAL
state : enable mode : auto
pbo mode : normal_epl pbo value : 0 dB
pmms : normal
Press any key to continue, 'e' to exit
pvc setting:
pvc type mux pvid pri profile
--------------- ------- ----- ------ ---- --------------------------------
3-42-0/33 bridged llc 611 0 DEFVAL
3-42-1/34 bridged llc 873 0 DEFVAL
Press any key to continue, 'e' to exit
vlan setting:
vid port/pvc type adv untag
----- --------------- ------- -------- --------
611 3-42-0/33 bridged fix untag
873 3-42-1/34 bridged fix untag
Then delete PVC in the existing slot 3 port 42
IES-5005-DSLAM> port pvc delete 3-42-1/34
IES-5005-DSLAM> port pvc delete 3-42-0/33
Configured again new PVC in slot 3 port 43
IES-5005-DSLAM> port pvc set 3-43-0/33 bridged llc 611 0 DEFVAL
IES-5005-DSLAM> port pvc set 3-43-1/34 bridged llc 873 0 DEFVAL

Press any key to continue, 'e' to exit
As you can see there is some F in Slot 3 and Port 42, it is shown that this VLAN is bind to slot 3 Port 42. Check port status using this command.
IES-5005-DSLAM> show linestat 3-42
minRate maxRate payLoadRate noiseMgn
port link (kbps) (kbps) (kbps) (dB) up time
----- ------------------- ------- ------- ----------- -------- --------------
3-42 up 192 192 192 22 43d20h48m37s
The output above shown that.
- Slot 3 Port 42 status is up.
- Line-profile used by the customer is 192 Kbps.
- SNR for this customer is 22 dB.
- Uptime Modem is 43 Days 20 hours 48 minutes 37 second.
Check SNR and Line Attenuation using this command.
DSL5-D2-XX> show linerate 3-42
slot-port=3-42, DSL line rate
link = up
min rate = 192 kbps
max rate = 192 kbps
actual rate = 192 kbps
noise margin = 22 dB --- SNR
attenuation = 5 dB --- Attenuation
linkup count = 1546
SNR and Attenuation range for GSHDSL DSLAM.
- 6dB or less noise margin is very bad, will cause out of sync or intermittent sync problems.
- 7dB-10dB is reasonable but doesn't leave much improvisation.
- 11dB-20dB quite stable.
- 20dB-28dB very good.
- 29dB or more excellent.
CHECK CE AND MODEM MAC ADDRESS
Verify that management modem VLAN 611 is configured on DSLAM
IES-5005-DSLAM> vlan show 611
vid 611:
name: VLAN_MODEM
state: enable
1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Press any key to continue, 'e' to exit
Check mac address in Slot 3 Port 42.
IES-5005-DSLAM> show mac 3-42
vid mac(total: 3) port
---- ----------------- -----
611 40:4a:03:d2:fe:ba 3-42 >> Modem Mac
873 00:01:29:ff:03:18 3-42 >> Customer Mac
873 40:4a:03:d2:fe:ba 3-42 >> Customer Mac
CHANGE LINE PROFILE
Verify the existing line-profile using this command.
IES-5005-DSLAM> profile shdsl show
shdsl profile(s):
----------------------
1. 1024Kbps
2. 1536Kbps
3. DEFVAL
4. Line_192
5. Line_512
6. SPEED_576
7. line_256
8. line_384
9. speed_1.5_M
10. speed_768
11. tes_annexA
There are 1Mbps, 1.5Mbps, 192, 512 existing line-profile configured. For example, Change the profile to 256.
Verify line-profile using this command.
IES-5005-DSLAM> profile shdsl show line_256
shdsl profile: line_256
max rate (Kbps): 256
min rate (Kbps): 192
annex mode : annexb
wire pair : 2wire
line probe : disable
Line-profile 256 is matching with configured max-rate.
Verify line-rate for slot 3 port 42 before changing line-profile.
IES-5005-DSLAM> show linerate 3-42
slot-port=3-42, DSL line rate
link = up
min rate = 192 kbps
max rate = 192 kbps
actual rate = 192 kbps
noise margin = 22 dB
attenuation = 5 dB
linkup count = 1546
SNR before line-profile changed is 22db and attenuation is 5 Db
Change profile from 192Kbps to 256Kbps
IES-5005-DSLAM> port shdsl set 3-42 Line_256
IES-5005-DSLAM> show linerate 3-42
slot-port=3-42, DSL line rate
link = up
min rate = 192 kbps
max rate = 256 kbps
actual rate = 256 kbps
Noise margin = 23 dB
attenuation = 7 dB
linkup count = 1546
Now the actual rate, SNR, and attenuation should be changed.
If we want to create a line-profile, we can use this command.
IES-5005-DSLAM> profile shdsl set Line_768 192 768 annexb 2wire lp_off
IES-5005-DSLAM> profile shdsl show Line_768
shdsl profile: Line_768
max rate (Kbps): 768
min rate (Kbps): 192
annex mode : annexb
wire pair : 2wire
line probe : disable
CHECK MULTICAST IN DSLAM
If the customer using dynamic routing, such as RIP/OSPF/EIGRP. We need to allow Multicast routing to ensure dynamic routing is working in CE.
Configure this command to activate multicast settings.
IES-5005-DSLAM> multicast smcast set 873 224.0.0.5 sub1 forbid
IES-5005-DSLAM> multicast smcast set 873 224.0.0.5 sub2 forbid
IES-5005-DSLAM> multicast smcast set 873 224.0.0.5 up1 fix
IES-5005-DSLAM> multicast smcast set 873 224.0.0.5 up2 forbid
IES-5005-DSLAM> multicast smcast set 873 224.0.0.6 sub1 forbid
IES-5005-DSLAM> multicast smcast set 873 224.0.0.6 sub2 forbid
IES-5005-DSLAM> multicast smcast set 873 224.0.0.6 up1 fix
IES-5005-DSLAM> multicast smcast set 873 224.0.0.6 up2 forbid
Verify multicast setting is configured on DSLAM
IES-5005-DSLAM> multicast smcast show

Note :
multicast is conditioned by customer routing, adjusted according to the dynamic routing used by the customer.
224.0.0.5 | The Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) All OSPF Routers address is used to send Hello packets to all OSPF routers on a network segment. |
224.0.0.6 | The OSPF All Designated Routers ""(DR)"" address is used to send OSPF routing information to designated routers on a network segment. |
224.0.0.9 | The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) version 2 group address is used to send routing information to all RIP2-aware routers on a network segment. |
224.0.0.10 | The Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) group address is used to send routing information to all EIGRP routers on a network segment. |

The explanation:
- No: is the alarming number, the smaller the number, the newer the alarm occurs
- Alarm: alarm indicates the type of alarm, for sys, is an alarm for the system, and for DSL is an alarm for DSL modem status.
- Condition: is the description of the alarm itself, each alarm has its own condition, for example, for DSL alarms, it has a condition LINE_UP which means modem up, and LINE_DOWN which means modem down
- Severity: is the priority level of the alarm
- Timestamp: is the time the alarm occurred
- Source: is an alarm source, for example for a DSL alarm, the condition is down for slot 3 port 27
