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.
