This document describes protocol stack and network parameters for NMS
(Network Management System) implemented in an SV (Supervisory) card which
is a main controller for an NE (Network Element) of SRT 1F series digital
microwave radio equipment. The document also shows all NMS management
objects supported by SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) and/or
SRT1F Web LT (Web based Local craft Terminal for SRT1F) on the NE.
A person who refers this document for NMS design and SRT 1F operation, should
be familiar with SRT 1F, a PC (Personal Computer), an operating system, an
application software usage on the PC and basic of IP (Internet Protocol) network.
Table shows applicable version of SV hardware and firmware for this document.

Basic Construct

2.1

SV (Supervisory)

NMS of SRT 1F is designed on SNMP and HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer

Protocol). SV card, main controller installed in the SRT 1F, is composed
both an SNMP embedded agent and a web server. These facilities provide
integrated NMS environment among SRT 1F and various type of equipment
such as MUX, ADM, routers and another venders radio equipment thanks
to SNMP, and good accessibility by HTTP which is not depend on
management platform. SV card has two (2) Ethernet port and two (2) DCC
(Data Communication Channel) terminations from radio/line sides as a
connection port for NMS.
Figure shows block diagram of the NMS facilities on the SV card.

Operation: Network configuration

Interconnectivity between Ethernet LAN connection and DCC line is

realized by on-board HUB function on the SV. All of the NMS connection
port, two (2) Ethernet LAN and two (2) DCCs are connected each other via
the HUB. This HUB is a simple repeater HUB, so that packet routing function
of any protocol layer is NOT supported by SRT 1F.
As a basic concept, NMS of SRT 1F is designed that SRT1F Web LT and
SNMP are split up the equipment management work. SRT1F Web LT has
full operational function such as configuration, control and performance
monitoring, and is used for a main human machine interface for operation,
maintenance and system setup. SNMP mainly provides an open interface
for fault management and performance monitoring to a central equipment
management system.
Table shows a role of the embedded SNMP agent and the SRT1F Web LT
on the SV.

Protocol Stack
SRT 1F can use two (2) types of communication line, Ethernet LAN (Local
Area Network) and DCC carried by STM1 (Synchronous Transfer Module

LAN

Table shows protocol stack which is used on Ethernet LAN of NMS

connection. SRT 1F uses two (2) type of application layer protocol. HTTP on
TCP/IP is used for a web based connection between the built in web server
and a client PC. SNMP on UDP/IP is used for connection between the
embedded SNMP agent and SNMP managers.

Network Layer

Table shows parameters of Network layer protocol on Ethernet LAN

connection. The LAN connection port on the equipment is designed based
on IEEE Recommendations. The LAN port supports both connection speed
of 10Base-T and 100Base-TX. Connection speed is automatically detected
and negotiated with a connected equipment. For a physical cable
connection to an external LAN equipment, straight and cross cable can be
use without care. SRT 1F automatically detects the plugged cable type.

SNMP

Table shows parameters of SNMP on Application layer. SNMP is mainly

used for connection between the embedded SNMP agent and SNMP
managers that is a central performance and fault management system.
SNPM uses UDP/IP as a low layer protocol for connection.
SRT 1F can communicate with maximum three (3) managers. Access from
the managers are controlled by an IP address and a community name. They
can set independently for each manager.

SRT 1F checks the IP address and the community name in the received GET Request message. If the IP address differs from pre-set one to the NE, the received message is discarded and no
message is responded to the manager. If the IP address is correct but the community name differs,
SRT 1F sends authentication Failure trap message to the manager.

Maximum length of Community name is limited to sixteen (16) characters. If exceeded, authentication Failure will be responded.

Additional Function

In addition, SRT 1F has an SNTP client. Real time clock in an NE can be

synchronized periodically to an NTP server clock built in an NMS network.
This facility provide that all NEs in the NMS network can be synchronized in
one clock if necessary.
SRT 1F can responds to a Ping command. This will be very useful for health
check and trouble shooting of an equipment and a network.
DNS (Domain Name Service) is not supported. A target SNMP manager
and an NTP server must be set by IP address.
