9 About this document This document covers the basic provisioning needed to bring up a Multiservice Passport Access Network Link (MPANL) between a Passport 4400 and 6400. Also included is a section on establishing a network management connection to the 4400, and a section on configuring the RSI -RSA components required for voice networking. How this document is setup Each section includes an example configuration with typical variables. The commands that follow use the variables from the ex

13 Configuring an MPANL over a dedicated line Figure 1 shows an example of MPANL over a dedicated line. The commands that follow use the variables from this example. When you configure your MPANL, replace the example variables with variables unique to your network setup. The example shows the two Passports as co-located for the sake of simplicity. However, a dedicated line to a remote 4400 typically travels through a variety of facilities. Figure 1 MPANL over a dedicated line Node name: MPA
