IP Address Allocation

H For the DSL card’s s1c through s1f interfaces, the peer IP address should be
set to indicate the management IP address of the directly connected 5446
RTU. In the case of a 5546 RTU, the peer IP address should match the IP
address of the router interface connected to the RTU. (Peer IP addresses
need to be set for 5446 and 5546 RTUs only. They do not apply to any other
RTU type.)
The peer address for the DSL card is a host route because the peer address
identifies a specific 5446 RTU. Specifically, the peer address of each DSL
card’s DSL port is the Hotwire 5446 RTU’s management IP address. The
peer address is assigned to the 5446 RTU through Internet Protocol Control
Protocol (IPCP) negotiation.
The following illustration shows the DSL card with four 5446 or 5546 RTUs
connected to its DSL ports. The peer address for the four DSL card ports are:
s1c = 135.1.3.3
s1d = 135.1.3.4
s1e = 135.1.3.5
s1f = 135.1.3.6
