Interface Group
19.1 Overview
By default, all LAN and WAN interfaces on the ZyXEL Device are in the same group
and can communicate with each other. You can create multiple groups to have the
ZyXEL Device assign the IP addresses in different domains to different groups.
Each group acts as an independent network on the ZyXEL Device.
19.1.1 What You Can Do in this Chapter
The Interface Group screen lets you create multiple networks on the ZyXEL
Device (Section 19.2 on page 217).
19.2 The Interface Group Screen
You can manually add a LAN interface to a new group. Alternatively, you can have
the ZyXEL Device automatically add the incoming traffic and the LAN interface on
which traffic is received to the new group when its source MAC address or DHCP
option information matches the predefined filtering criteria.
Use the LAN screen to configure the private IP addresses the DHCP server on the
ZyXEL Device assigns to the clients in the default and/or user-defined groups. If
you set the ZyXEL Device to assign IP addresses based on the client’s source MAC
address or DHCP option information, you must enable DHCP server and configure
LAN TCP/IP settings for both the default and user-defined groups. See Chapter 6
on page 93 for more information.

Diagnostic
23.1 Overview
The Diagnostic screens display information to help you identify problems with the
ZyXEL Device.
The route between a CO VDSL switch and one of its CPE may go through switches
owned by independent organizations. A connectivity fault point generally takes
time to discover and impacts subscriber’s network access. In order to eliminate
the management and maintenance efforts, IEEE 802.1ag is a Connectivity Fault
Management (CFM) specification which allows network administrators to identify
and manage connection faults. Through discovery and verification of the path,
CFM can detect, analyze and isolate connectivity faults in bridged LANs.
23.1.1 What You Can Do in this Chapter
• The General screen lets you ping an IP address or trace the route packets take
to a host (Section 23.4 on page 243).
• The 802.1ag screen lets you perform CFM actions (Section 23.4 on page 243).
• The OAM Ping Test screen lets you send an ATM OAM (Operation,
Administration and Maintenance) packet to verify the connectivity of a specific
PVC. (Section 23.4 on page 243).
23.2 What You Need to Know
The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter.
How CFM Works
A Maintenance Association (MA) defines a VLAN and associated Maintenance End
Point (MEP) ports on the device under a Maintenance Domain (MD) level. An MEP
port has the ability to send Connectivity Check Messages (CCMs) and get other
MEP ports information from neighbor devices’ CCMs within an MA.
CFM provides two tests to discover connectivity faults.
P-870HN-51b User’s Guide
241
Chapter 23 Diagnostic
• Loopback test - checks if the MEP port receives its Loop Back Response (LBR)
from its target after it sends the Loop Back Message (LBM). If no response is
received, there might be a connectivity fault between them.
• Link trace test - provides additional connectivity fault analysis to get more
information on where the fault is. If an MEP port does not respond to the source
MEP, this may indicate a fault. Administrators can take further action to check
and resume services from the fault according to the line connectivity status
report.
23.3 The General Diagnostic Screen
Click Maintenance > Diagnostic to open the screen shown next. Ping and
traceroute help check availability of remote hosts and also help troubleshoot

23.5 The OAM Ping Test Screen
Click Maintenance > Diagnostic > OAM Ping Test to open the screen shown
next. Use this screen to perform an OAM (Operation, Administration and
Maintenance) F4 or F5 loopback test on a PVC. The ZyXEL Device sends an OAM
F4 or F5 packet to the DSLAM or ATM switch and then returns it to the ZyXEL
Device. The test result then displays in the text box.
ATM sets up virtual circuits over which end systems communicate. The
terminology for virtual circuits is as follows:
• Virtual Channel (VC) Logical connections between ATM devices
• Virtual Path (VP)
A bundle of virtual channels
• Virtual Circuits
A series of virtual paths between circuit end points
Figure 143 Virtual Circuit Topology
Virtual Circuit (End-to-End)
Segment
ATM Switch
Virtual Path
Virtual Channel
Think of a virtual path as a cable that contains a bundle of wires. The cable
connects two points and wires within the cable provide individual circuits between
the two points. In an ATM cell header, a VPI (Virtual Path Identifier) identifies a
link formed by a virtual path; a VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier) identifies a
channel within a virtual path. A series of virtual paths make up a virtual circuit.
F4 cells operate at the virtual path (VP) level, while F5 cells operate at the virtual
channel (VC) level. F4 cells use the same VPI as the user data cells on VP
connections, but use different predefined VCI values. F5 cells use the same VPI
and VCI as the user data cells on the VC connections, and are distinguished from
data cells by a predefinded Payload Type Identifier (PTI) in the cell header. Both F4
flows and F5 flows are bidirectional and have two types.
• segment F4 flows (VCI=3)
• end-to-end F4 flows (VCI=4)
• segment F5 flows (PTI=100)
• end-to-end F5 flows (PTI=101)
OAM F4 or F5 tests are used to check virtual path or virtual channel availbility
between two DSL devices. Segment flows are terminated at the connecting point
P-870HN-51b User’s Guide
245
Chapter 23 Diagnostic
which terminates a VP or VC segment. End-to-end flows are terminated at the end
point of a VP or VC connection, where an ATM link is terminated. Segment
loopback tests allow you to verify integrity of a PVC to the nearest neighboring
ATM device. End-to-end loopback tests allow you to verify integrity of an end-toend PVC.
Note: The DSLAM to which the ZyXEL Device is connected must also support ATM
F4 and/or F5 to use this test.
Note: This screen is available only when you configure an ATM layer-2 interface.
