FrameSaver DSL Feature Sets
Depending upon the model ordered, the FrameSaver DSL unit has the basic
FrameSaver frame relay and diagnostic capability, or it is enhanced with
additional SLV (Service Level Verification) reporting capability. These are referred
to as feature sets, which provide different levels of intelligence for monitoring,
managing, and reporting performance of the unit.
The two feature sets include:
H Basic Feature Set. Models with this feature set provide basic capability,
which includes the following:
— Device Health and Status
— Layer 1 (Physical) and Layer 2 (Frame Relay) performance statistics
— Nondisruptive Permanent Virtual Circuit (PVC) diagnostics
— A troubleshooting virtual circuit for DSL access provider use and remote
management
— Limited RMON (Remote Monitoring) functionality
— Multiplexed management PVCs for use by the frame relay network
service provider or customer
See

for other features and additional information.
H Advanced SLV Feature Set. Models with this feature set (sometimes
referred to as Feature Set or Group 2) provide all the basic capability, plus
advanced SLV (Service Level Verification) features. When additional SLV
data is collected and the unit is accessed from an OpenLane SLM system,
Web access to the following information is available:
— TruePutt Technology using Frame and Data Delivery Ratios
— Web browser access to all diagnostic and reporting functions
— Historical SLA (Service Level Agreement) verification and trend reports

thresholds

You can activate the additional SLV features at any time by ordering a
