The Interactive Design Workshops The very successful design workshop has been expanded to fill one day of the seminar and this is open to end-users as well as RAD Partners. During these workshops we’ll focus on the building blocks and applications that RAD addresses to the Carrier market and to the Utilities / Transportation market. The first workshop (the morning session) is aimed at all the participants and will focus on the fundamentals of RAD solution design including the available tools for the solution designer. The afternoon session will run in two streams. The first stream will focus on RAD applications for the Carrier and the second stream will focus on the applications for Utilities & Transportation. In both workshops, you will interactively design networks based on real customer requirements. We’ll learn how to translate these requirements into real networks using RAD solutions.
Configuration & Troubleshooting workshops The configuration and troubleshooting workshops are based on knowledge covered in the lectures. As participants in the workshops are assumed to know the material covered in the lectures, lecture attendance is strongly recommended for those attending these workshops.
Ethernet Access - Ethernet over Everything Overview:
RAD's Ethernet Access product lines cover the boundary between the carrier transports over different infrastructures and the user's network. The course will cover the main applications and a very wide range of the configuration parameters.
Workshop:
During the workshop, you will set-up several applications of Ethernet extension in EVPL/EVPLAN topologies. You will learn how to configure the various applications using RAD's CLI (Command Line Interface) which has now become the standard user interface in all the main EtherAccess products.
Aims:
By the end of this course you will be familiar with the main Ethernet Access concepts and their application, including: Flow classifications, Policing, Shaping, LAG, SLA and OAM. You will also acquire basic trouble-shooting skills
Products covered:
ETX-204A,
LA-210
Axcess+: RAD's Next Generation MAP (Multi Service Access Platform) & Last Mile family
Overview:
RAD has a wide range of solutions for the TDM marketplace, with a future migration path leading to the packet networks of the future.
As well as covering the basic MAP products this course will also cover the MP-4100. RAD's Megaplex-4100 multiservice access node is a high-capacity, carrier-class multiservice concentrator. The MP-4100 will be shown with the latest SHDSL.bis modem from RAD, the ASMi-54.
In the Last Mile family, the ASMi-54 modem employs next-generation SHDSL technology and multi-pair bonding to offer mid-band Ethernet connectivity, providing up to 22.8 Mbps of bandwidth on 8-wires at a range up to 2.9 km (1.825 miles).
Workshop:
During the workshop you will set-up a MAP based TDM link using the RADview Network Management System. You will configure Megaplex and ASMi modems and run services over the link. By configuring using the NMS you will learn the steps needed to configure any link as well as gaining valuable knowledge of the management software.
Aims:
By the end of this course you will know how to setup a TDM Access network to carry different services over different infrastructures using telnet and RADview. You will have gained the knowledge of how to troubleshoot a TDM application and to maintain it.
