Auto-Provision the SHDSL Pairs Using EZ-EFM
TheEZ‐EFMfeatureautomatically provisionsthemaximumandminimumratesofeach
SHDSLpairinthebondinggroup,asfollow s:
•SHDSLmaximumrate=(upstream_rate)/(mimimum_links)
•SHDSLminimumrate=((upstream_rate)/(minimum_links))/4
NOTE
Forfixedratemode,theminimumrateissetequaltothemaximumrate.
TheSHDSLTrainingMode(fixed,worst‐caserateadaptive,orcurrent‐caserateadaptive)
mustbemodifieddirectly(perSHDSLpairintheCLI,and perEFMGroupintheEMS).
TheSHDSLWorstCaseMarginmustalso
bemodifieddirectly(perSHDSLpairintheCLIor

EFM Bonding Overhead Description
Beforebeingtransportedoverthephysicallayer(SHDSL,T1,etc.),theEFMbondingengine
firstencapsulatesEthernetframesintoEFMfragments.EFMFragmentpayloadcanvaryfrom
64to512bytesdependingontheEthernetpacketsize.IfanEthernetFrameis512bytesor
smaller,itisplacedintoone
EFMfragment.Iftheframeisbetween513and1024bytes,itis
splitbetweentwoEFMfragments.Iftheframeis1025bytes orgreater,itissplitbetweenthree
EFMfragments.
EachEFMfragmenthasthefollowingoverhead:
•Thereare2bytesofoverheadperfragmentthatarethe
sameforallfragments: astartbyte 
andCkbyte(anEOFdesignator)
•Theframechecksequence(FCS):thesizeofthisdependsontechnology
•Thereare2additionaloverheadbondingheaderbytes
ForSHDSL,thiscomesoutto8overheadbytesperfragment.Inaddition,aspartofthe64/65
