JetCraft Overview
JetCraft is primarily used by the central office craft personnel
performing on-site management, including the installation and
troubleshooting of CPX-1000 shelves. This chapter explains the
role JetCraft plays in the initial setup of a CPX-1000 equipment and
its ongoing management. This chapter includes these topics:
JetCraft features (page 1-2)
CPX-1000 components (page 1-4)
Craft terminal (page 1-4)
A Java application, JetCraft uses a Graphical User Interface (GUI)
to manage the CPX-1000 and its components, including
configuring the CPX-1000 shelves
provisioning Interface Groups, and Protection Groups, and
IADs
monitoring performance
reporting alarms
troubleshooting and maintenance
JetCraft also provides a security feature for controlling user access
to the CPX-1000.

Features
Table 1–1 lists the JetCraft features.
Table 1–1. JetCraft Features
Features Description
Configuration At startup, CPX-1000 automatically discovers the following line
cards:
TDM 12T-1
ATM (OC-3 and DS-3)
STS-1
For redundancy, the CPX-1000 supports primary/secondary
and active/standby states for the following cards:
Call Processors (CP)
ATM (OC-3, DS-3)
STS-1
Besides BITS clock and multiple VPI/VCI settings,
JetCraft also
supports Cell Delay Variation (CDV) for Frame Relay and ATM
protocols and Line Build Out (LBO).
Provisioning
Interface Groups for T1
and STS-1
JetCraft supports RT provisioning and up to eight IGs can be
provisioned.
JetCraft enables PPS settings and allows switchover on selected
EOC and TMC.
Protection Groups for
PSTN and ATM
A Protection Group provides a logical mapping for two ports,
where only one port is active at a time and another port is in a
standby state. Up to six PSTN and four ATM PGs can be
provisioned. JetCraft also supports ATM APS configuration.
IAD Profiles JetCraft provides a variety of default profiles.
IADs JetCraft supports RT provisioning and up to 8,192 IADs can be
provisioned.
Besides dynamic compression, JetCraft also supports a null (0)
Call Reference Value (CRV). This feature allows for a more
effective use of the CRV IAD assignments when less than a full
set of ports are required to be provisioned for the IAD.

1000-A2-GB22-10 1. JetCraft Overview
Performance monitoring JetCraft includes performance monitoring tools for routine
maintenance and network capacity planning. When initiated,
JetCraft collects information on equipment performance, such as
total calls active on a CPX-1000 and virtual circuit bandwidth
usage.
Alarms reporting JetCraft includes an alarm sequence ID and a customizable
alarm polling interval.
Troubleshooting and
maintenance
Switchover: JetCraft allows you to initiate a switchover, where
two redundant cards exchange their active/standby states.
Hot swap: JetCraft allows you to hot swap (planned or
unplanned) a card on module without affecting the operation of
the CPX-1000.
Loop back: JetCraft provides a diagnostics tool to test the
inbound traffic.
Database backup and restore: the service provider can create
CPX-1000 provisioning database files, use a File Transfer
Protocol (FTP) application to transmit and receive the
provisioning database files to and from a CPX-1000, and then
restore the CPX-1000 provisioning database using the
appropriate JetCraft menu option.
In addition, you can maintain and upgrade the software for
associated IADs through the JetCraft interface.
Integrated Monitor A diagnostic tool to provide an a real-time view of the health of
a CPX-1000 and its associated managed domain.
Security JetCraft provides a default user ID (cpxuser) and password
(cpxuser) and uses three user groups to control access to the
CPX-1000.

Components
Table 1–2 lists and describes the icons used in JetCraft.
Craft Terminal The JetCraft software runs on Windows 98/2000 or NT 4.0. A PC
(or laptop) with the JetCraft software installed serves as a Craft
terminal to the CPX-1000.
The Craft terminal communicates with a CPX-1000 through an
Ethernet connection using TCP/IP protocol. The physical
connection can be local (through a Local Area Network (LAN)
