A.1 Background
This section describes the service ports used by management systems.

To ensure the network security, you can take measures on the customer's network. The following
are the two cases that affect the network security:

l Security filtering settings such as routers or firewalls are configured in the network
environment where the NMS runs. When carrying out the project, avoid the service ports
used by the NMS being filtered by those security filtering settings.
l Some service ports providing system services are closed to prevent network or virus attacks.
Note that the service ports used by the NMS should not be closed, and otherwise the NMS
will not run properly.

A.2 Notes and Precautions


In the practical communication process, the source (the server) and the sink (the client) use
relevant ports. Usually you only need to specify the source port, and the sink port is dynamically
created.

Note the following during the project implementation:

l The service ports used by the NMS should not be closed.


l If there are routers or firewalls between the source and the sink, then check all ports used
by the source and the sink to make sure that they can be opened, and the source can
communicate with the sink.

Alarm hold-off time Alarm delay includes start delay and end
delay. An alarm is not regarded as being
generated until the NE has been detecting it
for a period of time, and this period of time is
the alarm start hold-off time. An alarm is not
regarded as being cleared until the NE has
been detecting the ending of it for a period of
time, and this period of time is the alarm end
hold-off time. Setting the hold-off time can
avoid the generation of unnecessary alarms
due to misreport or jitter.

Alarm severity According to ITU-T recommendations, the


alarm is classified into four severities:
Critical, Major, Minor, Warning.

Alarm A visible or an audible indication to notify the


person concerned that a failure or an
emergency has occurred. See also Event.

Attribute Property of an object.

Binding In virtual concatenated payload


configuration, designating one binding
number to identify the VC4s of the same
virtual concatenated payload is called "bind".
If a fault occurs to one of the bound services,
all bound services will switch as a whole.

Board View The Board View displays the ports and the
paths in different colors depending on their

Bound path The VC Trunk refers to the 2 M paths which


are bound together to transmit Ethernet data.
The VC Trunk is an entity between the
Ethernet port and the 2 M path.

Configuration data The data that configures the NE hardware for


coordination between this NE and other NEs
in the entire network and operation of
specified services. Configuration data is the
instruction file of NEs, and it is the key for
efficient network running. The typical
configuration data includes board
configuration, clock configuration and
protection relationship.

Configure To set the basic parameters of an operation


object.

Connection point A reference point where the output of a trail


termination source or a connection is bound
to the input of another connection, or where
the output of a connection is bound to the
input of a trail termination sink or another
connection. The connection point is
characterized by the information which
passes across it. A bidirectional connection
point is formed by the association of a
contradirectional pair.

Connection A "transport entity" which consists of an


associated pair of "unidirectional
connections" capable of simultaneously
transferring information in opposite
directions between their respective inputs and
outputs.

Cross-connect slot To perform GE ADM, an OTU board with


that function has to be in a cross-connect slot.
Several successive cross-connect slots form a
cross-connect unit group. You can only
configure cross-connections within a cross-
connect unit group.

Current alarms Alarms that do not clear, or has cleared but is


not acknowledged.

Current performance data The performance data stored in the current


register is called current performance data.
The current 15-minute or 24-hour register
(only one for each) is applied to collect the
performance data in the current monitoring
period. It changed within the monitor period.

DCC Within an STM-N signal there are two DCC


channels, one is the 192 kbit/s DCC-R
channel composed of bytes D1D3, and the
other is the 576 kbit/s DCC-M channel
composed of bytes D4D12. All NEs can
communicate with one another through the
DCC-R. The DCC-M is not the regenerator
section overhead and does not support
communications among regenerators, and it
is used to support communication channels of
more universal purpose. For example, it
supports TMN as a physical channel of ECC.

ECC Embedded Control Channel. An ECC


provides a logical operations channel
between SDH NEs, utilizing a data
communications channel (DCC) as its
physical layer.

Failure The fault cause persisted long enough to


consider the ability of an item to perform a
required function to be terminated. The item
may be considered as failed; a fault has now
been detected.

Fault A fault is the inability of a function to perform


a required action. This does not include an
inability due to preventive maintenance, lack
of external resources, or planned actions.

History alarms Alarms that have cleared and been


acknowledged.

History performance data The performance data stored in the history


register and the auto-report performance data
stored on the Web LCT are called history
performance data in a unified way.

IP address In the TCP/IP protocol, it is used to uniquely


identify the address of the communication
port, which consists of four bytes in decimal
digits, for example, 129.9.161.55.

Route The IP route selection is in table driving


mode. In each host and each router of the
Internet, there is a routing table that contains
information about how the service is
transmitted from the source to the sink,
providing a basis for route selection. Ethernet
static routing in ET1 refers to the mapping
relationship between the Ethernet port and the
bound path. Its routing type includes port
routing and VLAN routing. Port routing: It
means configuring a route between the
Ethernet port and the bound path port, which
is usually used for point-to-point networking
communication; VLAN routing: It means
configuring a route between the Ethernet port
and the bound path port based on the VLAN
service. It can be used flexibly in point-to-
point, point-to-multipoint or multipoint-to-
multipoint communication. The
implementation is to divide and converge the
data stream according to the VLAN flag of
the packet. As a VLAN flag can be added to
the Ethernet port, the equipment can be
applied more flexibly.

Settings Parameters of an operation that can be


selected by the user.

Severity See Alarm Severity.

SF Signal Fail. A signal indicating the associated


data has failed in the sense that a near-end
defect condition (not being the degraded
defect) is active.

Shortcut menu A menu that is displayed when right-clicking


an object' s name or icon. Also called a

Subnet mask Also referred to as the network mask off code,


it is used to define network segments, so that
only the computers in the same network
segment can communicate with one another,

Subnet number Subnetwork numder is used to differentiate


the different network sections in the sub-
network conference. Actually it is the first
several digits (one or two) of the user phone
number. An orderwire phone number is
composed of the sub-network number and the
user number.

Subnet Sub-network is the logical entity in the


transmission network and comprises a group
of network management objects. A sub-
network can contain NEs and other sub-
networks. A sub-network planning can better
the organization of a network view.

Support The frame on the bottom of a cabinet, when


installing the cabinet on the antistatic floor.

TMN Telecommunications Management Network.


The entity which provides the means used to
transport and process information related to
management functions for the
telecommunications network.

Tributary loopback A fault can be located for each service path


by performing loopback to each path of the
tributary board. There are three kinds of
loopback modes: No loopback, Outloop and
Inloop.

UAT Unavailable Time. A UAT event is reported


when the monitored object generates 10
consecutive severely errored seconds (SES)
and the SESs begin to be included in the
unavailable time. The event will end when the
bit error ratio per second is better than 10-3
within 10 consecutive seconds.

VC4 loopback The fault of each VC4 path on the optical fiber
can be located by setting loopback for each
VC4 path of the line. There are three kinds of
loopback modes: No loopback, Outloop,
Inloop.

VLAN ID Namely, it is the virtual LAN identifier. One


Ethernet port can support 4K VLAN routes,
and one NE can support up to 8K VLAN
routes.

Wavelength protection group The wavelength protection group is important


to describe the wavelength protection
structure. Its function is similar to that of the
protection sub-network in the SDH NE. The
wavelength path protection can only work
with the correct configuration of the
wavelength protection group.

WDM cross-connection Internal GE cross-connections for OTU


boards with GE ADM function, the source
and sink of which are optical ports at the
WDM side and the client side. The level for
WDM cross-connection is channel.

WDM service The WDM service is accessed at the client


side of the OTU board that can access SAN
services.

Web LCT It is an element level management system for


the optical transmission network. It can
manage RTN and NG WDM serial optical
transmission equipment. See also LCT.

Working path A specific path that is part of a protection


group and is labelled working.

Working service A specific service that is part of a protection


group and is labelled working.

WTR time A period of time that must elapse before a


from a fault recovered trail/connection can
be used again to transport the normal traffic
signal and/or to select the normal traffic
signal from.

WTR Wait to Restore. This command is issued


when working channels meet the restoral
threshold after an SD or SF condition. It is
used to maintain the state during the WTR
period unless it is pre-empted by a higher
priority bridge request.
