This page is about extented (undocumented) capabilities of the ECI Telecom-Group Inovia Telecom Hi-FOCuS™ ATU-R shipped by Deutsche Telekom AG, France Télécom and others to their DSL-customers.
Some words about the model-designation:
An ECI-model-designation for a network-access-system, incl. a Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM)
. The device placed in the Central Office that accepts all the DSL lines.
stands for ADSL transmission unit – remote
. This device is the ADSL modem that sits on the customer side of the telco copper loop. It is a self-contained box suitable for customer use, including an AC adapter for powering.
In this case the ATU-R reaches from U-R2 to T, because the T-SM-interface is internal to the device servicing the ethernet- and ATM25-port:
So this designation only means the customer-side ADSL-modem for the Hi-FOCuS-Series DSLAM. As time moved forward, there is a more exact designation known now (There is an external list not only listing ECI too):

You can refer to this table by using the version-ID as anchor, e.g. http://jjaf.de/eci/hi-focus/atu-r/#4.19
Discussions are held at several locations in the net, these include:
The unit has a label like this one:
The number upper right on the DTAG-version is composed of 2-digits 00
and 8-digits S/N that – converted to hex – makes up the units MAC-address using IEEE OUI 00-20-8F
of 2 OUI of ECI Telecom. Due to this scheme, the serial is limited to 16.777.21510 = FF-FF-FF16
. The above example makes up the address 00-20-8F-C6-5C-03
Strange enough the package-label is mixing up some digits reading 401918284EA
or MNr 40 189 186-091
, LimNr Y57177
and a S/N 0011737457
.
The unit uses WindRiver VxWorks RTOS that has its own newsgroup. You can also find some archived newsgroup-postings by ECI Telecom there, wether related to this unit or not.
At initialization-phase the unit broadcasts an ARP-packet on the ethernet-interface, asking for duplicate IP. This gives you the IP used by the device. Normally this is 192.168.20.80
, but on FT-models where LAN-access is configured to be deactivated it is 0.0.0.0
. No other IPs are known to be in use, although one can imagine every IP is possible to be configured. You can capture this event by tcpdump
(linux) or Analyzer: A public domain network analyzer. For Windows 95/98/NT platform.. If using the latter you probably want to update your conf/data/tables.dat
to include the following lines:

The unit answeres ICMP-echo-packets (ping
) by a reply.
The actual PPPoE-traffic will all be using another MAC-address. This is the Access Concentrator
sitting in the exchange. In the case of PPPoE-AC-name HNOX12-erx
this is 00-90-1A-10-11-B9
indicating Juniper Networks ERX-(700)/705/(1400)/1410/1440 Edge Routers [multi-brand, due to aquirement: Siemens ICN, Unisphere Networks].
The PPPoE-AC-list has moved.
