A T1/E1 or V.35 router

The CDRouter Cookbook

The basic CDRouter test setup for an Ethernet-to-Ethernet router can be modified slightly to also support devices that have a T1/E1 or V.35 WAN uplink. To support these devices an additional T1/E1 or V.35 network interface must be installed in the CDRouter host system. In this setup CDRouter connects directly to the DUT's WAN interface via T1/E1 or V.35 and directly the DUT's LAN interface via Ethernet. CDRouter emulates the service provider network on the WAN side and one or more clients on the LAN side.

Test Setup

Requirements

  • CDRouter or CDRouter-Multiport
  • One dedicated Ethernet network interface
  • One dedicated T1/E1 or V.35 network interface
  • One Ethernet-to-Ethernet router

Benefits

  • Simple setup for routers and CPE with a T1/E1 WAN uplink
  • Great for a stand-alone test station
  • Allows the device under test to be completely isolated
  • Perfect for debugging test failures and testing new functionality
