User manual
Step-by-step configuration
5.2.3 Discovering devices on the SHDSL line
When you change the eocHandling attribute from none to any other value, the Crocus SHDSL G703 starts
"scanning" the SHDSL line in order to determine which devices are present between itself and its remote
counterpart. When the scan is finished, some new objects are added to the containment tree on the
same level as the line object:
• If one or more repeaters are present on the SHDSL line, a repeater[ ] object is added for every repeater.
• For the remote counterpart, an end object is added.
The new objects are not added instantaneously. It can take up to 5 minutes before these objects appear
in the containment tree.
For example, suppose you have a link with a Crocus SHDSL G703 as central device, a 1421 SHDSL
Router as remote device and one Crocus SHDSL G703 Repeater in between. Suppose you set the
eocHandling attribute to discovery. In that case the one repeater[ ] object and an end object is added to the
containment tree as can be seen in the screenshot:
The first discovered repeater will have id 3, the second one will have id 4, etc.
5.2.4 EOC retrieved information
As said before, exactly which information is retrieved from the remote SHDSL device(s) through the EOC
channel depends on the setting of the eocHandling attribute.
This section gives an overview in which case which information is retrieved:
• EOC status information, refer to EOC status information.
• EOC performance information, refer to EOC performance information.
• EOC alarm information, refer to EOC alarm information.
