Configuration Guide 5 Configuring the Network Topology
5 Configuring the Network Topology
You can manage a transport network by using the NCE only after configuring the network
topology on the network.
5.1 Basic Concepts

Before configuring the network topology, you need to be familiar with the basic concepts.
5.2 Configuration Process
This section provides the process for configuring NEs, DCN channels, fibers/cables, and
subnets.
5.3 Configuration Example (Network Topology of a Hybrid Microwave Chain Network)
This example assumes that DCN communication is normal on the Hybrid microwave chain
network.
5.4 Configuration Example (Network Topology of a Hybrid Microwave Ring Network)
This example assumes that DCN communication is normal on the Hybrid microwave ring
network.
5.5 Configuration Example (Network Topology for a Packet Network)
This example assumes that DCN communication is normal on the packet network.
5.1 Basic Concepts

Before configuring the network topology, you need to be familiar with the basic concepts.
5.1.1 DCN
To manage and maintain an NE, the NCE needs to communicate with the NE through the data
communication network (DCN).
On a DCN, the NMS and all the NEs are considered as nodes. The DCN between the NMS
and all the NEs is considered as the external DCN, and the DCN between the NEs is
considered as the internal DCN. The OptiX RTN 900 supports the HWECC and IP DCN
solutions. IP DCN is the commonest DCN solution.
IP DCN is a DCN solution provided by Huawei. In this solution, DCN packets are
encapsulated using the standard IP protocol stack and transmitted over DCN channels
between NEs as IP packets, so that the NMS can manage the NEs.

Figure 5-1 shows how DCN packets are transmitted in the IP DCN solution. Different
vendors' DCN packets can be transmitted over the following DCN channels:
l DCCsa over SDH lines/SDH microwave/PDH microwave/Integrated IP microwave

l Ethernet service channels over Integrated IP microwave or FE/GE links
l Ethernet NMS ports or NE cascade ports
l D1 to D3, D4 to D12, or D1 to D12 bytesb in SDH frames carried over channelized
STM-1 ports
l Partb of the bandwidth of ML-PPP links over channelized STM-1 ports
l Partb of the bandwidth of ML-PPP links over channelized STM-1 ports
l DCCsc over IF/TDM cascade ports
l a:
OptiX RTN 905 s supports only the DCC channels of the integrated IP microwave, and only
OptiX RTN 910, OptiX RTN 950, and OptiX RTN 980 support the DCC channels of PDH
microwave.
l b: OptiX RTN 905/RTN 905 s does not support this function.
l c: Only OptiX RTN 905 supports this function.
Figure 5-1 IP DCN solution
5.1.2 GNE and Non-GNE

A gateway NE (GNE) refers to an NE whose application layer communicates directly with the
NMS application layer. A non-GNE refers to an NE whose application layer communicates
with the NMS application layer by forwarding data through the GNE application layer.

GNE
Generally, a GNE is connected to the NMS through a local area network (LAN) or wide area
network (WAN). Its application layer can directly communicate with the NMS application
layer. One set of NMS needs to be connected to one or more GNEs.
Non-GNE
A non-GNE communicates with the GNE through the DCN channels between NEs.
5.1.3 NE ID and NE IP Address

The ID and IP address are the unique NE on the DCN.
NE ID
At the application layer of each DCN solution, an OptiX NE uses its NE ID as the NE
address. Therefore, each NE must have a unique NE ID on the DCN and all these NE IDs
must be planned in a unified manner.
The NE ID has 24 bits. The most significant 8 bits represent the subnet ID (or the extended
ID) and the least significant 16 bits represent the basic ID. For example, if an NE ID is
0x090001, the subnet ID is 9 and the basic ID is 1.
NE IP Address
An NE uses an IP address as its unique identifier during TCP/IP communication.
In the HWECC solution, the IP addresses of the NEs on the DCN are used in the following
scenarios:
l A gateway NE (GNE) communicates with the NCE over TCP/IP. The IP address of the
GNE must be planned as required by the external DCN.
l Different NEs communicate with each other over extended ECC channels. In this
scenario, NE IP addresses must be on the same network segment. By default, NE IP
addresses are on the 129.9.0.0 network segment.
In the DCN solution (for example, IP DCN) where network management messages are
transmitted over TCP/IP, an NE IP address is used as the NE address at the network layer.
Therefore, each NE IP address on the DCN must be unique and all these NE IP addresses
must be planned in a unified manner.
By default (which indicates that an NE IP address is never manually changed), this NE IP

address is automatically changed to 0x81000000 + ID if the NE ID is changed. For example,
if an NE IP address is never manually changed, this NE IP address is automatically changed
to 129.9.0.1 when the NE ID is changed to 0x090001. Once an NE IP address is manually
changed, the interlocking relationship between the NE ID and NE IP address no longer takes
effect.
5.1.4 Logical Board

To simplify board management, the NE software and NMS consider a physical board as one
or more logical boards by function.

Logical Boards of OptiX RTN 910A, 950, 950A, 980

For OptiX RTN 910A, 950, 950A, 980, generally, a physical board has only one logical board,
which has the same name and is housed by the same slot as the physical board. However,
there are some special boards, which have special logical boards.

l The logical slot ID of an
OptiX RTN 980 ODU is
the logical slot ID of the
IF board connected to the
ODU plus 50.
For dual-IF boards:
l The logical slot ID of the
OptiX RTN 910A/
950/950A ODU
connected to the first IF
port is the logical slot ID
of the dual-channel IF

OptiX RTN 910A/
950/950A/980 ODU

l On the OptiX RTN 950A using CSHO boards, the logical board SL1D can be switched to the logical
board CD1, and the logical board SP3S can be switched to the logical board MP1.
l On the OptiX RTN 950A using CSHO boards, the MN1 board must be installed before CES services are
configured on the logical board MP1 or CD1.
Logical Board of OptiX RTN 905

OptiX RTN 905 IDU is an integrated chassis with only one system board, as shown in the
following figure.

Figure 5-2 Logical board layout of the OptiX RTN 905 IDU
The logical slot of the ODU of the OptiX RTN 905 1E/2E is equal to the slot of the IF board
connected to the ODU plus 20.
The logical slot number of the ODU corresponding to the first IF port on the OptiX RTN 905
2F is 23, and the logical slot number of the ODU corresponding to the second IF port is 43.
By default, slot 8 of the IDU of the OptiX RTN 905 1E/2E is configured with a VS2 logical
board. If the COMBO interface functions as a GE interface, the VS2 board must be changed
into an EG2 board.
Logical Board of OptiX RTN 905 s

OptiX RTN 905 s IDU is an integrated chassis with only one system board, as shown in the
following figure.
Figure 5-3 Logical board layout of OptiX RTN 905 s IDU
The logical slot of the ODU of OptiX RTN 905 s is equal to the slot of the IF board connected
to the ODU plus 20.
Logical Board of an Outdoor Cabinet

When OptiX RTN 900 is used to monitor an outdoor cabinet, a logical board needs to be
assigned to the outdoor cabinet. For details, see 16.2 Environment Monitoring Functions.

When a dual-channel ODU is used, its slot ID is the slot ID corresponding to the first IF port. The two
channels of the ODU map to ports 1 and 2 of the ODU respectively.
5.1.5 Fiber/Cable Types

You can obtain the clear fiber/cable connection relations between NEs by using the fiber
management function of the NCE. You can manage the fibers and cables by using the NCE,
including SDH fibers, radio links, Ethernet fibers/cables, extended ECC cables, and back-to-
back radio connections.
l SDH fibers
SDH fibers refer to the fiber connections between different sets of equipment. That is,
SDH fibers indicate the connection relations between different SDH optical ports.
For the OptiX RTN 905, connection between TDM cascading ports is also indicated by
SDH fibers.
l Radio links
Radio links refer to the radio connections between different sets of radio equipment. That
is, the radio links indicate the connection relations between different IF ports.
l Ethernet fibers/cables
Ethernet fibers/cables refer to the Ethernet fiber/cable connections between different sets
of equipment. that is, the Ethernet fibers/cables indicate the connection relationship
between different Ethernet ports.
l Extended ECC cables
Extended ECC cables refer to the extended ECC channels between the NEs. That is, the
extended ECC cables indicate the connection relations between the NEs.
l Back-to-back radio connections
Back-to-back radio connections refer to the NE cascading relations. That is, the back-to-
back radio connections indicate the connection relations between the NEs.
Fibers and cables are topological objects on the NCE. Hence, operations on the fibers or cables do not affect
the normal running of the NEs.
5.1.6 Subnet
NEs in a same domain or with similar attributes can be allocated to a same subnet. In this
way, they can be displayed as a whole on the NCE, thus facilitating the NE management.
The subnets are topological objects on the NCE. Hence, operations on the subnets do not
affect the normal running of the NEs. In the case of a large number of topological objects,
subnets that contain multiple NEs simplify the topology view on the NCE.

This section provides the process for configuring NEs, DCN channels, fibers/cables, and
subnets.
Figure 5-4 shows the process for configuring the network topology.

Figure 5-4 Configuration flowchart (network topology)
l If the NE ID and NE name are changed in the NE commissioning process and if the NE communication
parameters, logical boards, VLAN IDs and bandwidth of the inband DCN are set during the per-NE
commissioning, the configuration data is automatically synchronized onto the NMS in the NE data
uploading process. Therefore, you do not need to perform the preceding operations again.
l This section describes the typical IP DCN solution configuration process. If an IP DCN solution
containing special requirements or another DCN solution is used, perform the configurations by referring
to the Feature Description.
l If the Web LCT is used, fibers/cables do not need to be created.
The operations in the flowchart are described as follows.

Configuration Guide 6 Configuring Microwave Links
6 Configuring Microwave Links
Before configuring services on a radio link, you need to configure the radio link.Short-haul
microwave links mentioned here refer to microwave links that are provided based on the
ODU.
6.1 Basic Concepts

This section provides links to concepts related to configuring microwave links.
The process for configuring microwave links is strongly related to the types of IF boards used.
6.3 Configuration Example (Radio Links on the Hybrid Radio Chain Network)
This section considers radio links on a Hybrid radio chain network as examples to describe
how to configure radio links according to the network planning information.
6.4 Configuration Example (Microwave Links on a Hybrid Microwave Ring Network)
This example assumes that the network topology has been configured.
6.5 Configuration Example (Microwave Links on a Packet Network)
6.1 Basic Concepts

This section provides links to concepts related to configuring microwave links.
6.1.1 RF Configuration Modes

The OptiX RTN 900 supports multiple RF configuration modes.
The non-protection configuration indicates that there is no protection channel. In practice, services on an
unprotected microwave link can still be protected, for example, E1 services can be configured with SNCP
protection and Ethernet services can be configured with air interface link aggregation and ERPS protection.
1+0 Non-protection Mode

The 1+0 non-protection mode indicates that a microwave link has one working channel and
no protection channel.

N+0 Non-Protection Mode

The N+0 non-protection mode indicates that the microwave link has N (N>1) working
channels and no protection channel.
OptiX RTN 905 s does not support N+0 non-protection.
1+1 Protection Mode

The 1+1 protection mode indicates that a microwave link has one working channel and one
protection channel.
The 1+1 protection mode is classified into 1+1 HSB, 1+1 FD, and 1+1 SD.
l In 1+1 HSB protection mode, the system provides a 1+1 hot standby configuration for
the IF board and ODU at both ends of each hop of microwave link to provide protection.
l In 1+1 FD protection mode, the system uses two channels with a specific frequency
interval to transmit and receive the same service signal. The opposite end selects from
the two received signals. With the 1+1 FD protection, the impact of the fading on signal
transmission is reduced.
The 1+1 FD protection mode also supports the 1+1 HSB protection function.
l In 1+1 SD protection mode, the system uses two antennas with a space distance to
receive the same RF signal. The equipment selects from the two received signals. With
the 1+1 SD protection, the impact of the fading on signal transmission is reduced.
The 1+1 SD protection mode also supports the 1+1 HSB protection function.
OptiX RTN 905 1E NEs are stacked to implement 1+1 protection.

RTN 905 s does not support 1+1 protection.
N+1 Protection Mode

The N+1 protection mode indicates that a microwave link has more than N (N>1) working
channels and one protection channel.
The OptiX RTN 900 supports N+1 protection for only STM-1 microwave and Integrated IP
microwave. The protection mechanism is similar to 1:N linear MSP which uses the N+1
protection protocol.
OptiX RTN 905/905 s does not support N+1 protection.
XPIC Mode
The XPIC mode indicates that a microwave link transmits two channels of signals over the
horizontally polarized wave and the vertically polarized wave in the same channel. Therefore,
the microwave link capacity in XPIC configuration is double the microwave link capacity in
1+0 non-protection configuration.

OptiX RTN 905 1E NEs are stacked to implement XPIC.

OptiX RTN 905 s does not support XPIC.
6.1.2 Microwave Link Aggregation

In microwave link aggregation, the Ethernet channels on multiple integrated IP microwave
links between two NEs are aggregated to form an Ethernet link of large bandwidth.
Microwave link aggregation is used to improve the Ethernet bandwidth and reliability of
microwave links.
The RTN 905 s does not support aggregation of microwave links.
Microwave link aggregation is implemented in either of the following ways:
l PLA (also called L1 LAG). PLA can aggregate multiple integrated microwave links. To
implement the sharing of load and balance the Ethernet bandwidth utilization on the
microwave links, Ethernet traffic is allocated based on the Ethernet bandwidth of each
microwave link.
PLA is available in four modes, conventional mode, enhanced mode, super mode, and
Super Dual Band mode.
– Conventional PLA has IF boards allocate traffic. Only two radio links share load.
Generally, conventional PLA is called PLA.
– For PLA in enhanced mode, the packet switching unit distributes traffic. The
enhanced PLA of RTN 905 1E supports a maximum of two microwave links to
implement load sharing. The enhanced PLA of RTN 905 2E/905 2F/910A/
950/950A supports a maximum of four microwave links to implement load sharing.
The RTN 980 supports a maximum of 16 microwave links to implement load
sharing. This enhanced PLA is typically called EPLA.
RTN 905 1E/905 2E/905 2F//910A/950A, RTN 950 (housing CSHU/CSHUA/CSHUF), and RTN
980 housing CSHNA/CSHNU support EPLA.
– For PLA in super mode, the packet switching unit first allocates traffic to the dual-
IF board and then the dual-IF board allocates the traffic to the IF port. For the RTN
910A, this mode allows a maximum of six microwave links to implement load
sharing. For the RTN 950A/950, this mode allows a maximum of eight microwave
links to implement load sharing. PLA in super mode is typically called EPLA+.
Only RTN 910A, RTN 950A housing CSHO, and RTN 950 housing CSHU/CSHUA support
EPLA+.
– In Super Dual Band mode, common-band links and E-band links are bound to
achieve large-bandwidth and long-distance transmission. It distribute traffic to the
two types of links according to service priorities. PLA in Super Dual Band mode is
called Super EPLA.

Only RTN 905 1E/905 2E/905 2F/950A/910A/RTN 980 (housing CSHNU), and RTN 950
(housing CSHU/CSHUA/CSHUF) support Super EPLA.
For more details about Super EPLA, see the Super Dual Band User Manual.
l Air-interface LAG, also called L2 LAG. Air-interface LAG aggregates multiple
integrated microwave links based on IEEE 802.3ad. To implement the sharing of load,
Ethernet traffic is allocated based on the HASH algorithm which is based on packet
headers (IP addresses, MAC addresses, or MPLS labels).
Figure 6-1 Microwave link aggregation
Microwave link aggregation can increase the bandwidth and improve the reliability for
Ethernet services on integrated IP microwave links.
For OptiX RTN 905 1E NEs that require improved bandwidth utilization and transmission reliability for
Ethernet services, PLA is a must because air-interface LAG is not supported. Two OptiX RTN 905 1E
NEs are stacked to implement PLA.

The process for configuring microwave links is strongly related to the types of IF boards used.
This figure shows the process of configuring microwave links.

Configuration Guide 7 Configuring TDM Services
7 Configuring TDM Services
The key to configuring TDM services is configuring the corresponding service cross-
connections.
7.1 Basic Concepts

This section provides links to concepts related to configuring TDM services.
7.2 Configuration Process on a Per-NE Basis
The process of configuring services with SNCP is greatly different from the process of
configuring services without SNCP.
7.3 Configuration Example (TDM Services on a Hybrid Microwave Chain Network)
This example assumes that the network topology and microwave links have been configured.
7.4 Configuration Example (TDM Services on a Hybrid Microwave Ring Network)
7.1 Basic Concepts

This section provides links to concepts related to configuring TDM services.
7.1.1 Protection Modes for TDM Services

OptiX RTN 900 supports linear multiplex section protection (MSP) and subnet connection
protection (SNCP) for TDM services. OptiX RTN 980 also supports two-fiber bidirectional
ring MSP.
Linear MSP
Linear MSP applies to point-to-point networks. MSP provides protection for the services
between two multiplex section termination (MST) modules. That is, when an MSP switching
occurs, the services are switched from the working section to the protection section. For
OptiX RTN 900, linear MSP provides protection for TDM services that are transmitted over
SDH fibers.
Linear MSP includes 1+1 linear MSP and 1:N linear MSP.
l 1+1 linear MSP

In the case of 1+1 linear MSP, one protection channel protects one working channel, and
the protection channel does not transmit extra services. When the working channel
becomes unavailable, services are switched to the protection channel for transmission, as
shown in Figure 7-1. 1+1 linear MSP is classified into dual-ended revertive, dual-ended
non-revertive, single-ended revertive, and single-ended non-revertive modes. The single-
ended non-revertive mode is the most common linear MSP mode.
Figure 7-1 1+1 linear MSP
l 1:N linear MSP

1:N linear MSP requires N working channels and one protection channel. The protection
channel may transmit extra services. When a working channel becomes unavailable, the
services on this channel are switched to the protection channel for transmission. As a
result, extra services are interrupted, as shown in Figure 7-2. 1:N linear MSP is available
only in dual-ended revertive mode.

Figure 7-2 1:N linear MSP
OptiX RTN 910A supports only 1:1 protection for channelized STM-1 services. In 1:1 protection mode, one
working channel exclusively uses one protection channel, and the protection channel cannot carry extra
services. 1:1 protection for channelized STM-1 services is available only in dual-ended revertive mode.
SNCP
In the case of SNCP, the protection subnet connection takes over when the working subnet
connection fails or deteriorates. For OptiX RTN 900, SNCP provides protection for TDM
services on STM-1 fiber ring networks, TDM microwave ring networks, Hybrid microwave
ring networks, STM-1 fiber ring networks, or Hybrid ring networks.
SNCP is based on dual feed and selective receiving and requires a working subnet and a
protection subnet. When the working subnet fails or deteriorates, services are transmitted over
the protection subnet, as shown in Figure 7-3.

Figure 7-3 SNCP
OptiX RTN 900 supports the coexistence of 1+1 protection, N+1 protection, and SNCP. In
this case, you can set the hold-off time for SNCP so that the microwave link protection
switching is performed preferentially, therefore preventing circular switchovers.
OptiX RTN 905 does not support N+1 protection.
Two-fiber Bidirectional MSP Ring

OptiX RTN 980 supports two-fiber bidirectional ring MSP, to protect two-fiber bidirectional
rings. Two-fiber bidirectional ring MSP provides protection for the services between two
MST modules. That is, when a two-fiber bidirectional ring MSP switching occurs, the
services are switched from the working section to the protection section.
On a two-fiber bidirectional MSP ring, the first half of VC-4s on each STM-N line are
working channels, and the other half of VC-4s are protection channels. Normally, services are
transmitted on the working channels. The services transmitted on the two fibers flow in
inverse directions. When a fiber cut occurs and the working channel becomes unavailable, the
services on both ends of the faulty point are switched from the working channel of the faulty
fiber to the protection channel of the reverse directional fiber for transmission. Figure 7-4
shows application of a two-fiber bidirectional MSP ring.

Figure 7-4 Two-fiber bidirectional MSP ring
7.1.2 Timeslots for TDM Services on IF Boards

When TDM services need to be transmitted on a microwave link, you need to configure cross-
connections between the service timeslots on service boards and the service timeslots on IF
boards. The timeslots for the TDM services on the IF boards are closely related to the
microwave service type and microwave capacity of the IF boards.
E1
If an IF board transmits E1s and the E1 capacity is nxE1, the first to nth VC-12 timeslots on
the IF board are available and correspond to the first to nth E1 timeslots that are transmitted
over microwave. For example, if the E1 capacity is 75xE1, only the first to sixty-third VC-12
timeslots in VC4-1 and the first to twelfth VC-12 timeslots in VC4-2 on the IF board are
available. If a cross-connection is configured between an E1 port on a service board and the
second VC-12 timeslot in VC4-2 on the IF board, the E1 services that are accessed through
the E1 port are sent to the 65th E1 timeslot that is transmitted over microwave.

STM-1
If an IF board transmits STM-1s and the STM-1 capacity is nxSTM-1, the first to nth VC-4
timeslots on the IF board are available and correspond to the first to nth STM-1s that are
transmitted over microwave. For example, if the STM-1 capacity is 2xSTM-1, VC4-1 and
VC4-2 on the IF board are available. If a cross-connection is configured between an E1 port
on a service board and the second VC-12 timeslot in VC4-2 on an IF board, the E1 services
that are accessed through the E1 port are sent to the second VC-12 in the second STM-1 that
is transmitted over microwave.
Two STM-1 ports and two IF ports can provide 4xVC-4 for higher order cross-connections but only 3xVC-4
for lower order cross-connections.
An OptiX RTN 905 2E or an ISM6 board can transmit a maximum of two VC-4 TDM services.
7.1.3 MSP Subnet

The NCE manages multiplex section protection (MSP) in end-to-end mode using MSP
subnets.
A protection subnet refers to a network structure that is capable of self-protection. It is a
network unit of the transport network and defines attributes including the signal protection
scheme, service direction, and rate level. On the NCE, a protection subnet is defined in a
broad sense. MSP subnets and two-fiber bidirectional MSP subnets (for OptiX RTN 980 only)
are used to provide end-to-end management of protection subnets of the OptiX RTN 900.
7.1.4 SDH Trails

The NCE manages time division multiplexing (TDM) services in end-to-end mode using SDH
trails.
A trail is a transport entity which consists of an pair of unidirectional trails, capable of
simultaneously transferring information in opposite directions, between two NEs. A
unidirectional trail is also a transport entity responsible for the transfer of information from
the trail source to the trail sink. The integrity of the information transfer is monitored. A trial
is formed by combining termination functions and a network connection, and is responsible
for integrity of network information transfer at the client layer.
An SDH trail is a transport entity for TDM services. The NCE manages TDM services in end-
to-end mode using SDH trails.
7.1.5 Numbering Schemes for SDH Timeslots

Two numbering schemes for VC-12 timeslots are applicable to SDH optical/electrical lines or
SDH radio links.
VC-12 Timeslot Numbering

Two numbering schemes are applicable to SDH optical/electrical lines or SDH radio links
when you create cross-connections.
l By order
This timeslot numbering scheme is also considered as timeslot scheme. The numbering
formula is as follows: VC-12 number = TUG-3 number + (TUG-2 number - 1) x 3 +
(TU-12 number -1) x 21.

This scheme is the numbering scheme recommended by ITU-T G.707 and is the default
scheme adopted by the OptiX equipment.
l Interleaved scheme
This timeslot numbering scheme is also considered as line scheme. The numbering
formula is as follows: VC-12 number = (TUG-3 number - 1) x 21 + (TUG-2 number -1)
x 3 + TU-12 number.
The OptiX equipment can adopt this scheme when it interconnects with the equipment
that adopts the interleaved scheme or when a specific timeslot numbering scheme is
required.
Figure 7-5 Numbering VC-12 timeslots by order
Figure 7-6 Numbering VC-12 timeslots in the interleaved scheme
VC-3 Timeslot Numbering

A VC-3 timeslot number corresponds to a TUG-3 number. If you need to configure cross-
connections of VC-3s and VC-12s in the same VC-4, note that the timeslots in the TUG-3 that

are occupied by the VC-3 cross-connections cannot be configured for VC-12 cross-
connections.
7.1.6 TDM Timeslot Planning Schemes

Timeslot assignment diagrams illustrate TDM timeslot planning schemes.
Timeslot Assignment Diagram

A timeslot assignment diagram provides significant references for configuring TDM services.
Before planning TDM timeslots, you need to be familiar with the meanings shown in the
timeslot assignment diagram.
Figure 7-7 Timeslot assignment diagram
As shown in Figure 7-7, the timeslot allocation diagram contains three areas, namely, site
area, timeslot area, and timeslot assignment area.
The site area contains the NE icons and interface boards that carry microwave links.
l Each of the first NE and last NE has only one interface board and an intermediate NE
has two interface boards which are at both sides of the vertical line under the
intermediate NE icon.
l The interface board on the left side of the vertical line under an intermediate NE icon is
connected to the interface board on the right side of the vertical line under its upstream
NE icon. The interface board on the right side of the vertical line under an intermediate
NE icon is connected to the interface board on the left side of the vertical line under its
downstream NE icon.
l In the case of a ring link, before planning the site area, you need to break the ring link
into a chain link and ensure that the start and end NEs are the same one.
The timeslot area represents the VC-4 timeslot resources. For example, in the case of a
microwave link, timeslots occupied by an STM-1 service are all in the first VC-4.

In the timeslot assignment area, each straight line represents a service and the numeric above
the straight line represents the timeslot occupied by this service.
l A black dot indicates that services are added to or dropped from the NE. The board
under a black dot indicates the board and corresponding ports on the board that are used
for adding or dropping services.
l An arrow indicates that services are transferred on the NE.
l If a straight line passes a vertical line without any arrow or black dot, it indicates that
services pass through the NE.
l In the case of protection configuration (for example, 1+1 HSB protection) wherein the
working service and protection service have the same route, you only need to draw a
solid line to represent the working service. In the case of protection configuration (for
example, SNCP) wherein the working service and protection service have different
routes, you need to draw a solid line to represent the working service and a dotted line to
represent the protection service.
TDM Timeslot Planning Scheme for Chain Networks

On a backhaul network for a mobile base station, the services are accessed from different
nodes and then aggregated to the same node for transmission. In this case, assign the timeslots
on the chain microwave network as follows:
1. Select the chain that contains the most hops as the main chain. Then, divide the chain
network into several sub-chains by taking the main chain as the reference. Consider the
E1 channels or fiber connections that are used for transferring services between NEs as
links.
2. Assign the timeslots for the added, dropped, or pass-through services on the NEs of the
main chain one after another, in the descending order of distance. Assign the smallest
VC-12 timeslot number to the service on the farthest NE. The number of the timeslot
each service occupies does not change on the chain network.
3. Repeat the previous step to configure timeslots for the services on all the sub-chains.
This timeslot assignment method ensures that only the numbers of timeslots that services on
the nodes of the aggregation sub-chain occupy may change.
The principles for obtaining the timeslot cross-connection configurations from the non-SNCP
service timeslot assignment diagram are as follows:
l The vertical line under the NE name is considered as the reference.
l If a straight line representing a pass-through service crosses the vertical line, it indicates
that cross-connections are configured between the boards on both sides of the vertical
line. The corresponding cross-connected timeslots are marked over the straight line.
l If there is a straight line with one dot on one side of the vertical line, it indicates that
cross-connections are configured between the board on this side of the vertical line and
the board under the straight line with one dot. The corresponding cross-connected
timeslots are marked over the straight line with one dot.
l If there is a straight line with an arrow on both sides of the vertical line, it indicates that
cross-connections are configured between the two boards on both sides of the vertical
line. The corresponding cross-connected timeslots on each board are marked over the
straight line with an arrow on the side of this board.
For details, see 7.3 Configuration Example (TDM Services on a Hybrid Microwave
Chain Network).

TDM Timeslot Planning Scheme for Ring Networks

On a backhaul network for a mobile base station, the services are accessed from different
nodes and then aggregated to the same node for transmission. In this case, assign the timeslots
on the SNCP microwave ring network as follows:
1. Assign the timeslots to added or dropped services on the NEs in anti-clockwise order.
Assign the smallest VC-12 timeslot number to the service on the nearest NE. The
number of the timeslot each service occupies does not change on the ring network.
2. Repeat the previous step to configure timeslots for the services on all the sub-chains.
This timeslot assignment method ensures that only the numbers of timeslots that services on
the nodes of the aggregation sub-chain occupy may change.
The principles for obtaining the timeslot cross-connection configurations from the SNCP
service timeslot assignment diagram are as follows:
l The vertical line under the NE name is considered as the reference.

l If a straight line representing a pass-through service crosses the vertical line, it indicates
that cross-connections are configured between the boards on both sides of the vertical
line. The corresponding cross-connected timeslots are marked over the straight line.
l If there is a straight line with one dot on one side of the vertical line, it indicates that
SNCP cross-connections are configured between the board on this side of the vertical
line and the board under the straight line with one dot. The corresponding cross-
connected timeslots are marked over the straight line with one dot.
For details, see 7.4 Configuration Example (TDM Services on a Hybrid Microwave Ring
Network).
7.1.7 Transmitting Native T1 Services Through E1 Channels

OptiX RTN 950A supports transmitting Native T1 services through E1 channels.
l If the system control board is SLF2CSHO, the PDH ports of SP3S and SP3D boards and
the PDH port integrated on SLF2CSHO boards can work in T1 mode.
l A T1 service occupies 24x64 kbit/s timeslots, an E1 service occupies 32x64 kbit/s
timeslots, and therefore a T1 service can be carried over an E1 channel with the
remaining 8x64 kbit/s timeslots stuffed.
l When transmitting T1 services, each E1 channel corresponds to a T1 service.
l When configuring T1 services, retain the original configurations of the TDM cross-
connect mode and Hybrid microwave. Only the service types carried over PDH ports are
different.

The process of configuring services with SNCP is greatly different from the process of
configuring services without SNCP.
Figure 7-8 shows the process of configuring TDM services.

information from the remote end on the network.
If auto-negotiating equipment does not support the half-duplex mode, the auto-negotiation result will be a
full-duplex mode at the corresponding rate level.
Auto-negotiation over FE Electrical Ports

FE electrical ports support four working modes, namely, 10M half-duplex, 10M full-duplex,
100M half-duplex, and 100M full-duplex. Two ports that work in different modes cannot
communicate with each other. If auto-negotiation is enabled, the two port can communicate
with each other. Auto-negotiation matches the working modes between the local port and the
remote port by transferring information about the negotiated working mode over fast link
pulses and normal link pulses.
Rules for auto-negotiation over FE ports are provided in Table 8-1.

Table 8-1 Auto-negotiation rules for FE electrical ports (when the local port works in the
auto-negotiation mode)
Working Mode of the Remote Port Auto-negotiation Result
Auto-negotiation 100M full-duplex
10M half-duplex 10M half-duplex
10M full-duplex 10M half-duplex
As provided in Table 8-1, when the remote port works in 10M full-duplex or 100M full-duplex mode, auto-
negotiation cannot match the working modes between the local port and the remote port; as a result, packets
may still be lost. Therefore, if the remote port works in 10M full-duplex or 100M full-duplex mode, configure
the local port to work in the same mode.
When both the local FE interface and the remote FE interface work in auto-negotiation mode,
they can auto-negotiate flow control.a
Auto-Negotiation Function for GE Electrical Ports

GE electrical ports support five working modes, namely, 10M half-duplex, 10M full-duplex,
100M half-duplex, 100M full-duplex, and 1000M full-duplex. As provided in Table 8-2, the
auto-negotiation rules for GE electrical ports are similar to the auto-negotiation rules for FE
electrical ports.
Table 8-2 Auto-negotiation rules for GE electrical ports (when the local port works in the
auto-negotiation mode)
Working Mode of the Remote Port Auto-negotiation Result
Auto-negotiation (GE electrical port) 1000M full-duplex
FE auto-negotiation 100M full-duplex
1000M full-duplex 1000M full-duplex

As provided in Table 8-2, when the remote port works in 10M full-duplex or 100M full-duplex mode, auto-
negotiation cannot match the working modes between the local port and the remote port; as a result, packets
may still be lost. Therefore, if the remote port works in 10M full-duplex or 100M full-duplex mode, configure
the local port to work in the same mode.
When the GE electrical ports on both ends are working in the auto-negotiation mode, the
equipment on both ends can negotiate the flow control function through the auto-negotiation
function.a
a: OptiX RTN 950A supports the flow control function only for point-to-point transparently transmitted E-
Line services.
Auto-Negotiation Function for GE/FE Optical Ports

GE optical ports support only the 1000M full-duplex mode whereas FE optical ports support
only the 100M full-duplex mode. Auto-negotiation between a GE optical port and an FE
optical port is only intended to detect the link status of each other and negotiate the flow
control function.
A 10GE optical port supports only 10GE full-duplex and does not support auto-negotiation.
8.1.4 Flow Control

When the data processing/transferring capability of a device fails to handle the flow received
by its ports, congestion occurs on the transmission line. To reduce the number of discarded
packets due to buffer overflow, proper flow control measures must be taken.
The half-duplex Ethernet applies the back-pressure mechanism to control the flow. The full-
duplex Ethernet applies PAUSE frames to control the flow. Currently, as the half-duplex
Ethernet is not widely applied, flow control is implemented mainly for the full-duplex
Ethernet.
Flow control of the full-duplex Ethernet is classified into two types, namely, auto-negotiation
flow control and non-auto-negotiation flow control.
Auto-negotiation Flow Control

When an Ethernet port works in auto-negotiation mode, it can implement auto-negotiation
flow control. The auto-negotiation flow control modes include:
l Asymmetric PAUSE toward Link partner

In the case of congestion, the port can send PAUSE frames but cannot process received
PAUSE frames.
l Symmetric PAUSE
The port can send and process PAUSE frames.
l Both asymmetric and symmetric PAUSE
The port has the following three capabilities:
– Sending and processing PAUSE frames
– Sending but not processing PAUSE frames

– Processing the received PAUSE frames but not sending PAUSE frames
l Disabled
An port in this mode does not send or process PAUSE frames.
On the NMS, OptiX RTN 900 only supports two auto-negotiation flow control modes: Disabled and
Symmetric PAUSE.
Non-auto-negotiation Flow Control

When an Ethernet port works in fixed working mode, it can implement non-auto-negotiation
flow control. Non-auto-negotiation flow control can be implemented in the following modes:
l Send only
In case of congestion, a port in this mode can send PAUSE frames but cannot process
received PAUSE frames.
l Receive only
In case of congestion, a port in this mode can process received PAUSE frames but cannot
send PAUSE frames.
l Symmetric
A port in this mode can send and processes PAUSE frames.
l Disabled
An port in this mode does not send or process PAUSE frames.
On the NMS, OptiX RTN 900 only supports two auto-negotiation flow control modes: Disabled and Enable
Symmetric Flow Control (symmetric).
8.1.5 Typical Mobile Backhaul Network Topologies for Ethernet

Services
Based on the assignment modes of VLAN IDs to base stations and network scale, there are
three common network topologies for Native Ethernet services.
8.1.5.1 Networking of VLAN-based E-Line Services

If a mobile backhaul network uses this networking mode, each base station needs to be
assigned with a unique VLAN ID.
On the mobile backhaul network shown in Figure 8-2, the VLANs ID that are carried by base
station services are planned in a unified manner and are unique globally. The base station
services need to share the Ethernet service bandwidth on the Hybrid microwave network
(NE1 to NE5) and be isolated from each other using VLAN IDs. The base station services are
aggregated at NE1 and then transmitted through the regional backhaul network to the BSC.
Therefore, in this example, services on the Hybrid microwave network of the mobile backhaul
network are configured as VLAN-based E-Line services.

Figure 8-2 Networking diagram of VLAN-based E-Line services
8.1.5.2 Networking of IEEE 802.1d bridge-based E-LAN services

On a mobile backhaul network with this networking mode, there is no requirement on the
VLAN IDs of base stations.
As shown in Figure 8-3, the mobile backhaul network does not need to sense whether the
received base station services carry any VLAN IDs. Services from each base station are
aggregated at NE1 and then transmitted through the regional backhaul network to the BSC.
Therefore, in this example, the services on the Hybrid microwave network (NE1 to NE6) of
the mobile backhaul network are configured as IEEE 802.1d bridge-based E-LAN services.
The Hybrid microwave network forwards the services to the corresponding ports after
querying the MAC address table according to the destination MAC addresses carried by the
services.
IEEE 802.1d bridge-based service packets are forwarded based on MAC addresses and may be broadcast
among all ports connected to the IEEE 802.1d bridge. Therefore, isolate the ports that do not need to
communicate with each other by adding the ports into a split horizon group.

Figure 8-3 Networking diagram of IEEE 802.1d bridge-based E-LAN services
8.1.5.3 Networking of IEEE 802.1q Bridge-based E-LAN Services

If a mobile backhaul network uses this networking mode, base stations in different domains
need to be assigned with different VLAN IDs.
On the mobile backhaul network shown in Figure 8-4, the VLAN IDs that are carried by
received base station services are planned in a unified manner and are unique within each
domain. Base station services in different domains are isolated from each other by means of
VLANs and BTSs in the same domain can communicate with each other. The base station
services are aggregated at NE1 and then transmitted through the regional backhaul network to
the BSC. Therefore, in this example, the services on the Hybrid microwave network of the
mobile backhaul network are configured as IEEE 802.1q bridge-based E-LAN services. The
Hybrid microwave network forwards the services to the corresponding ports after querying
the MAC address table according to the destination MAC addresses and VLAN IDs carried
by the services.
IEEE 802.1q bridge-based E-LAN service packets can be broadcast within each domain. Therefore, isolate
the ports that do not need to communicate with each other by adding the ports into a split horizon group.

Figure 8-4 Networking diagram of IEEE 802.1q bridge-based E-LAN services
8.1.5.4 Comparison Between the Three Networking Modes

The three networking modes are applied in different scenarios and provide different service
stability, security, O&M capability, and scalability.

8.1.6 Protection for Native Ethernet Services

OptiX RTN 900 supports three protection modes for Native Ethernet services, namely,
Ethernet ring protection switching (ERPS), link aggregation group (LAG), and multiple
spanning tree protocol (MSTP).

ERPS
If a ring network is configured with ERPS, the RPL owner node blocks its port on one side so
that services are transmitted only through its port on the other side. This can prevent service
loops. When a ring link fails or an NE becomes faulty, the RPL owner node unblocks the RPL
port. Then, services are transmitted through the RPL port, to achieve ring network protection.
OptiX RTN 900 supports ERPS V1 and ERPS V2, which can protect Ethernet services on
single-ring networks and multi-ring networks.
Figure 8-5 shows a single-ring network using ERPS V2.
l Normally, the RPL owner node NE4 blocks the port connected to the RPL neighbor node
NE1, and NE1 also blocks the port connected to NE4.b Services are transmitted along the
route NE1 -> NE2 -> NE3 -> NE4.
l When the link between NE1 and NE2 fails, NE4 and NE1 unblock their ports so that
services can be transmitted along the route NE1 -> NE4 -> NE3 -> NE2.
l ERPS V1 cannot protect Ethernet services on multi-ring networks.

l For ERPS V1, NE1 does not block the port connected to NE4.
l OptiX RTN 905 s does not support ERPS.

Figure 8-5 ERPS V2 protection switching (single-ring network)
Figure 8-6 shows a multi-ring Ethernet network using ERPS V2. NE1, NE2, NE3, and NE4
form a major ring with NE4 being the RPL owner node. NE2, NE6, NE5, and NE3 form a
sub-ring with NE6 being the RPL owner node.
l Normally, NE4 blocks the port connected to the neighbor node NE1, and NE1 also
blocks the port connected to NE4. NE6 blocks the port connected to the neighbor node
NE5, and NE5 also blocks the port connected to NE6. The blocking mechanism prevents
service loops on the major ring and sub-ring.

l When the link between NE3 and NE5 on the sub-ring fails, NE5 and NE6 unblock their
ports so that services can be transmitted along the route NE2 -> NE6 -> NE5 on the sub-
ring. NE4 and NE1 on the major ring do not unblock their ports. The service route on the
major ring remains the same.
l When the link between NE1 and NE2 on the major ring fails, NE4 and NE1 unblock
their ports so that services can be transmitted along the route NE2 -> NE3 -> NE4 ->
NE1 on the major ring. NE6 and NE5 on the sub-ring do not unblock their ports. The
service route on the sub-ring remains the same.
Figure 8-6 ERPS V2 protection switching (multi-ring network)
LAG
Link aggregation enables one or multiple links that are connected to the same equipment to be
aggregated into a LAG. The aggregated links are considered as a single logical link by
customers.
As shown in Figure 8-7, the LAG provides the following functions:
l Increasing bandwidth
A LAG provides users with a cost-effective method for increasing the link bandwidth.
Users obtain data links with higher bandwidths by combining multiple physical links
into one logical link without upgrading the existing equipment. The bandwidth of the
logical link is equal to the sum of the bandwidths of the physical links. The aggregation

module distributes the traffic to different members by using the load sharing algorithm,
therefore achieving the load sharing function at the link level.
l Improving link availability
The links in a LAG back up each other dynamically. When a link fails, another link in
the LAG takes it over immediately. The process of starting the backup link is only
related to the links in the same LAG.
Figure 8-7 LAG
MSTP
OptiX RTN 900 supports only the MSTP protocol that uses the common and internal
spanning tree (CIST). The MSTP that uses the CIST can be used as a rapid spanning tree
protocol (RSTP). The RSTP is used in the network loop. This protocol adopts certain
algorithms to break a loop network into a loop-free tree network and therefore prevents
packets from increasing and cycling in an endless manner on the loop network.
For OptiX RTN 900, the MSTP is used to prevent a network loop on the access side.
As shown in Figure 8-8, when the user equipment accesses the OptiX RTN 900 through two
different trails, you can configure the ports on the OptiX RTN 900 that are connected to the
user network into a port group. This port group, together with the switch on the user network,
can run the MSTP. If an service access link becomes faulty, the MSTP enables a re-
configuration and therefore the spanning tree topology is generated to provide protection for
the user network that is configured with multiple access points.

8.4 Configuration Example (Configuring Point-to-Point

Transparently Transmitted E-Line Services)

Tail-end sites on the network transmit base station services by using point-to-point
transparently transmitted E-Line services.
As shown in the following figure, NE1 is a terminal station of a backhaul network. The
service requirements are as follows:
l NE1 must transparently transmit the Ethernet services from the NodeB to NE2 in point-
to-point manner.
l DSCP flags must be used to identify the priorities of the Ethernet services from the
NodeBs.
To meet the preceding requirements, point-to-point transparently transmitted E-line services
are configured and a QoS policy is configured for the services.
Figure 8-11 Networking diagram (point-to-point transparently transmitted E-Line services)


In this example, transparently transmitted E-Line services are configured for only one NE and
therefore can only be configured on a per-NE basis.
8.4.2.1 Configuring Ethernet Ports

Set encapsulation type to null for all ports.

port must also work in auto-negotiation mode. If a
peer Ethernet port work in another mode, the local
Ethernet port must work in the same mode.
l The working modes of the Ethernet ports within
the backhaul network are uniformly planned as
auto-negotiation.
Max frame 1536 In this example, to ensure that the Ethernet frames
length that carry more than one tag such as QinQ can
traverse the equipment, the maximum frame length is
set to 1536 (bytes). If the equipment needs to transmit
jumbo frames with a greater length, set the maximum
frame length according to the actual length of a
jumbo frame. Generally, if the equipment is directly
interconnected with BTSs, retain the default
maximum frame length (1522 bytes).
Flow control Disabled Generally, the flow control function is enabled only
when an NE or the peer equipment is inadequate for
QoS processing. The plan for flow control must be
the same for the equipment at both ends.

Step 2 Create an MA.
Step 3 Create MP.

Step 4 Create remote MPs.
Step 5 Verify Ethernet services by using the LB function. For details, see A.9.10.7 Performing an

Configuration Guide 9 Configuring Ethernet Services on EoS/EoPDH Boards
9 Configuring Ethernet Services on EoS/

EoPDH Boards
Ethernet services based on EoS/EoPDH boards are classified into EPL services, EVPL
services, EPLAN services, and EVPLAN services.
OptiX RTN 905 does not support the configuration of Ethernet services on EoS/EoPDH boards.
9.1 Basic Concepts

This section provides hyperlinks to concepts related to EoS/EoPDH-based Ethernet services.
9.2 Configuration Procedure (EPL/EVPL Services)
When configuring EPL/EVPL services, you need to configure EPL/EVPL service information
and create cross-connections between VCTRUNKs and line timeslots.
9.3 Configuration Procedure (EPLAN/EVPLAN Services)
When configuring EPLAN/EVPLAN services, you need to configure EPLAN/EVPLAN
service information and create cross-connections between VCTRUNKs and line timeslots.
9.4 Configuration Example (Ethernet Services Based on TDM Radio)
9.5 Configuration Example (Ethernet Services Traversing a TDM Network)
9.1 Basic Concepts

This section provides hyperlinks to concepts related to EoS/EoPDH-based Ethernet services.
9.1.1 EoS/EoPDH
Ethernet over SDH (EoS) enables Ethernet services to be transmitted over an SDH network
by encapsulating and mapping Ethernet services into one or more virtual containers (VCs).
Ethernet over PDH (EoPDH) enables Ethernet services to be transmitted over an SDH/PDH
network by encapsulating and mapping Ethernet services to one ore more PDH payloads.
The EoS/EoPDH feature is applicable to the following scenarios:

Scenario 1: Transmitting Ethernet Services on a TDM Microwave Network
Figure 9-1 Transmitting Ethernet services on a TDM microwave network
Scenario 2: Transmitting Native Ethernet Services from a Hybrid Microwave

Network Across a Leased TDM Network
Figure 9-2 Scenario 2: transmitting Native Ethernet services from a Hybrid microwave
network across a leased TDM network
9.1.2 VCTRUNK
When Ethernet services need to be transmitted in EoS/EoPDH mode, you need to configure
the Ethernet services between Ethernet ports and VCTRUNKs on the EoS/EoPDH boards.
During the application of the EoS, the rate of the Ethernet service does not adapt to the rate of
the standard VC container of the SDH. Hence, if you directly map the Ethernet service data
into a standard VC container, the transmission bandwidth is lavishly wasted. To solve this
problem, the virtual concatenation technology is used to concatenate standard VC to a VCG
that adapts to the rate of Ethernet services. Similarly, the EoPDH also requires to use the
virtual concatenation technology to concatenate PDHs to a VCG that adapts to the rate of the
Ethernet service.

EMS6 is an EoS board and support VCTRUNKsa binding VC-3 or VC-12 channels.
EFP8 is an EoPDH board and provides VCTRUNKsb binding E1 channels.
a: For EMS6, if VC-12 channels need to be bound with a VCTRUNK, only VC-12s in VC4-4 are available.
b: On the NMS, VCTRUNKs that bind E1 channels are displayed as VCTRUNKs that bind VC-12 channels.
9.2 Configuration Procedure (EPL/EVPL Services)

When configuring EPL/EVPL services, you need to configure EPL/EVPL service information
and create cross-connections between VCTRUNKs and line timeslots.
EPL/EVPL Service Model

Before configuring EPL/EVPL services, you need to learn about their service models in this

Ethernet services from each BTS carry a specific VLAN ID. Therefore, you need to configure
VLAN-based EVPL services in this example. The following tables provide the planning
information.

l On port 4-EMS6-1 on NE11, create an MP with an ID 101.


l Perform the LB test by considering the MEP whose MP ID is 101 as the source MEP and
the MEP whose MP ID is 401 as the sink MEP.
l Perform the LB test by considering the MEP whose MP ID is 102 as the source
maintenance point and the MEP whose MP ID is 201 as the sink maintenance point.
Services pass all LB tests.

9.5 Configuration Example (Ethernet Services Traversing a

TDM Network)

On a Hybrid microwave network, Native Ethernet services need to traverse a leased TDM
network before arriving at a BSC.
As shown in the following figure, Ethernet services from BTSs 11 to 15 are received over
Hybrid microwave links, are aggregated on NE11, and then are transmitted to the BSC across
a leased TDM network. Configure Ethernet services according to the following requirements:
l NE11 uses an EFP8 board to receive Ethernet services from and transmit Ethernet
services to BTS16.
l NE11 and NE17 use the EoPDH technology, wherein Ethernet services are encapsulated
into E1 services so that Ethernet services traverse the TDM network successfully.
To facilitate description of service configurations in this example, NE17 is an IDU that supports the
EoPDH function. In addition to an IDU, NE17 can also be an MSTP device that provides the EoPDH
function.
l Each BTS is allocated with a specific Ethernet bandwidth and a total of 40 Mbit/s
bandwidth is required. Therefore, 20 E1 lines need to be leased.
l The services from each BTS carry VLAN IDs, and VLAN IDs on the entire network are
planned in a unified manner. Therefore, VLAN-based E-Line services are configured for
service transmission in this example.
l VLAN priorities have been configured for base stations based on service types. In
addition, QoS processing is required.
In this example, service configurations only on NE11 and NE17 are described. For service configuration
details on NE12 to NE16, see 8.5 Configuration Example (VLAN-based E-Line Services).

According to the service classes of BTS services, CoS with an ID 1 schedules BTS services with different
VLAN priorities into egress queues with different forwarding priorities.
In this example, BTS services are configured with VLAN priorities or DSCPs based on
service types. The EFP8 board performs CoS processing for BTS services based on VLAN
priorities or DSCPs.
In this example, BTSs allocate VLAN priorities to their services based on service types. CoS
needs to be configured based on service VLAN priorities on Ethernet ports that receive
services from or transmit services to the BTSs.

Procedure
Step 1 Switch the OAM standard.
The default standard is Y.1711. If the standard needs to be switched to Y.1731, switch the
OAM standard to Y.1731 on the first node and last node of each tunnel. This figure shows the
procedure.

Step 2 Set global OAM parameters for each NE.

Note the following points:
l Set Carrier ID according to the network plan if ICC-based MPLS-TP OAM is used. Set
Carrier ID to the same value for all NEs on a network.
l Set Channel Type to the same value for all NEs on a network. It is recommended that
you retain the default value for this parameter.
Step 3 Configure MEP parameters for MPLS-TP tunnel OAM.

Configure the first node and last node for each tunnel according to the following figure.

After OAM has been configured for working and protection tunnels, APS protection groups can be created.
Step 4 Create an MPLS APS protection group between NE31 and NE11.
When configuring the protection group on the first node and last node, select the working and
protection tunnels and set the protection group attributes.
l NE31 is the first node of the protection group.

During creation of the APS protection group, set the protocol status to disabled. After the protection
group has been created at the first node and last node, enable the protocol respectively.
l NE11 is the last node and needs to be configured consistently with the first node.
Step 5 Create MPLS APS protection groups between NE31 and NE11 and between NE31 and NE21.
The configuration procedure is the same as that for the MPLS ASP protection group between
NE31 and NE11.

Step 6 Start the PW APS protection protocol.

After the protection groups are created, enable the APS protocol in sequence. If the protocol
has been enabled after the creation, it is recommended that you disable and then enable the
protocol. This figure shows the procedure.

10.2.2.5 Configuration Procedure (Verifying Configured MPLS Tunnels)

Because MPLS-TP OAM has been configured together with MPLS APS, you can perform LB
tests to verify MPLS tunnels.
Data Preparation
To use the LB function of MPLS-TP OAM to verify tunnel connectivity, prepare the
following data:
l RMEP IP Address: Because MEG IDs are based on IP addresses, a remote MEP IP
address, that is an LSR ID, is used during an LB test.
Procedure
Step 1 Start an LB test of MPLS-TP PW OAM.
On the first node and last node of each tunnel, select a tunnel for test and perform the test as
shown in the following figure. The test result is displayed in the Test Result tab.

10.4 Configuration Example (MPLS Tunnels Traversing L2

Networks)
In this example, the MPLS tunnels traverse an L2 network by using VLAN sub-interfaces.

On the network, two MPLS tunnels need to traverse the Layer 2 network.
In this example (as shown in Figure 10-26), two MPLS tunnels need to traverse the Layer 2
network, to transmit services from BTS1 and BTS2 to the BSC. The VLAN sub-ports of ports
for carrying the MPLS tunnels on NE1, NE2, and NE4 need to be enabled and be assigned
with VLAN IDs. When planning the VLAN IDs for the VLAN sub-ports, ensure that they are
different from the VLAN IDs carried by services on the Layer 2 network, so that the services
carried by the MPLS tunnels do not conflict with services on the Layer 2 network.
The services from BTS1 and BTS2 are aggregated on the MPLS port on NE1 and then
transmitted to the BSC, so the VLAN sub-ports transmitting the services must have different
VLAN IDs to isolate the services.

Figure 10-26 Networking diagram (MPLS tunnels traversing a Layer 2 network)
Figure 10-27 shows information about the MPLS ports on the network. The VLAN sub-ports
of ports for carrying the MPLS tunnels on NE1, NE2, and NE4 are enabled so that the MPLS
tunnels can traverse the Layer 2 network.

This example assumes that the outdoor cabinet monitoring port and the outdoor cabinet PMU
are correctly connected.

16.1 Auxiliary Ports and Functions

This section describes auxiliary ports and functions supported by the product, including the
orderwire, synchronous data services, asynchronous data services, wayside services, and
external alarms.
Orderwire
OptiX RTN 910A/950/950A/980 supports orderwire phones so that operation or maintenance
engineers at different workstations can perform voice communication through microwave or
SDH overhead bytes.
When using an orderwire phone, note the following points:
l The orderwire phone numbers of all nodes on the network must be of the same length. A
3-digit number is recommended and all orderwire phone numbers on the entire network
must be unique.
l Dual tone multiple frequency is used as the dialing method of the orderwire phone on
each node.
l The call waiting time must be set to the same value for all nodes. It is recommended that
you set the call waiting time to 5s if fewer than 30 nodes exist on the orderwire subnet
and to 9s if more than 30 nodes exist on the orderwire subnet.
l The product supports the orderwire group call function. When the orderwire group call
number "888" is dialed on an RTN device, orderwire phones of all RTN devices on the
orderwire subnet ring. When an orderwire phone receives the call, orderwire phones on
other NEs stop ringing. In this case, the orderwire group call changes to a point-to-point
common orderwire call.
RTN 900 supports group calling only for neighboring NEs on a microwave link.
l When orderwire signals are transmitted over a microwave link, they are always
transmitted through one customized overhead byte. When orderwire signals are
transmitted over SDH fibers, they are transmitted through the E1 or E2 byte.
l By default, all line ports, IF ports, and unconfigured synchronous data ports on an OptiX
RTN device function as orderwire ports. Therefore, in normal cases, orderwire ports
need to be configured only at the edge of an orderwire subnet.
l The equipment supports the transmission of orderwire overhead bytes through a 64 kbit/s
synchronous data port or an external clock port. If two pieces of equipment are
connected in back-to-back mode, they do not support the orderwire group call function
(orderwire group call number "888").
l If multiple microwave links or optical transmission lines exist between two NEs, ports
corresponding to these links must be configured as orderwire ports. When Hybrid
microwave links are not used in N+1 protection, orderwire signals can be normally
transmitted between two NEs as long as one of microwave links between the two NEs is
available. When orderwire signals are transmitted over Hybrid microwave links in N+1
protection, the protection link cannot transmit orderwire signals.
l For definitions of the pins on the ports, see the IDU Hardware Description.

Synchronous Data Services

The synchronous data service is also called the F1 data service. OptiX RTN 910A/
950/950A/980 supports one synchronous data service. Microwave/SDH overhead bytes
transmitted between two NEs can be used for transmitting one 64 kbit/s synchronous data
service.
When using synchronous data services, note the following points:
l The synchronous data service is fully transparently transmitted, and the port transmission
rate is 64 kbit/s.
l The synchronous data service is clock-sensitive. If the clock is not synchronized, bit
errors occur.
l Ports on the equipment comply with ITU-T G.703.
l When synchronous data services are transmitted over a microwave link, they are always
transmitted over SDH fibers, they are always transmitted through the F1 byte.
l The equipment supports the transmission of overhead bytes in the synchronous data
service through external clock ports to implement the service spanning function.
l When the synchronous data service is transmitted over protected microwave links or
optical transmission lines, the synchronous data service is also protected.
Asynchronous Data Services

The asynchronous data service is also called a transparent data service or a broadcast data port
service. OptiX RTN 905/910A/950/950A/980 supports one asynchronous data service.
Microwave/SDH overhead bytes transmitted between two sites can be used for implementing
full-duplex communication between the universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART).
When using asynchronous data services, note the following points:
l The asynchronous data service is fully transparently transmitted. The transmission rate
and transmission control protocol do not need to be configured. The port transmission
rate is 19.2 kbit/s.
l The asynchronous data service is clock-sensitive. If the clock is not synchronized, bit
errors occur.
l The equipment provides RS-232 electrical ports that comply with ITU-T V.24/V.28.
l The equipment supports only point-to-point communications.
l When asynchronous data services are transmitted over a microwave link, they are always
transmitted over SDH fibers, they are transmitted through any of the SERIAL 1 to
SERIAL 4 bytes.
l The equipment supports the transmission of overhead bytes in the asynchronous data
service through external clock ports to implement the service spanning function.
l When the asynchronous data service is transmitted over protected microwave links or
optical transmission lines, the asynchronous data service is also protected.

Wayside E1 Services
The OptiX RTN 905/910A/950/950A/980 supports one wayside E1 service. The transmitted
overhead bytes in STM-1 microwave signals can be used for transmitting one wayside E1
service between two sites in one hop of STM-1 microwave link.
When using the wayside E1 service, note the following points:
l The wayside E1 service is supported by only STM-1 microwave.
l The wayside E1 service is fully and transparently transmitted, and the port transmission
rate is 2048 kbit/s.
l The wayside E1 service is clock-sensitive. If the clock is not synchronized, bit errors
occur.
l The equipment does not support pass-through of the wayside E1 service. Therefore, the
wayside E1 service can be transmitted only between two sites on one hop of microwave
link.
l When the wayside E1 service is transmitted over microwave links in 1+1 or N+1
protection mode, the wayside E1 service is also protected.
l The equipment adds or drops the wayside E1 service through an external clock port. The
external clock port complies with ITU-T G.703, and the impedance on the path is 120
ohms. For definitions of the pins on the ports, see the IDU Hardware Description.
16.2 Environment Monitoring Functions

The product supports the function of monitoring environment by means of external alarms
and monitors an outdoor cabinet by means of an outdoor cabinet monitoring port.
External Alarms
External alarms are also called housekeeping alarms or relay alarms.
This figure shows the port circuits for external alarm input. When the external relay is
switched off, the port circuit generates a high-level signal. When the external relay is
switched on, the port circuit generates a low-level signal. The board generates an alarm based
on the level signal. External alarm input mainly achieves access of the relay alarms generated
by the environmental alarm generator.
Figure 16-1 Circuits for external alarm input
The port circuit for external alarm output works in a similar manner as the external system
shown in the preceding figure. When the external alarm output conditions specified for the
NE are met, the NE drives the relay to turn on or off the switch according to the conditions

that result in the alarm. Otherwise, the NE drives the relay to change the switch to the reverse
status that results in the alarm. External alarm output helps to provide equipment alarms to the
centralized alarming device.
For definitions of the pins on the ports, see the IDU Hardware Description.
Monitoring of an Outdoor Cabinet

OptiX RTN 900 supports the function of monitoring the power system and environment
variables of the following outdoor cabinets:
l APM30H: The advanced power module with heat exchanger cooler (APM30H) cabinet
supports alternating current (AC) power input and direct current (DC) power output. It
provides a 7U space for installing user equipment.
l TMC11H: The transmission cabinet of 11U high with heat exchanger (TMC11H) cabinet
supports DC power input and DC power output. It provides an 11U space for installing
user equipment.
l OMB: The outdoor mini box (OMB) cabinet supports AC or DC power input. It provides
a 2U space for installing user equipment.
For details about outdoor cabinets, see the chapter that describes outdoor cabinets in the Site
Preparation outdoor cabinet product description.
On the NMS, an outdoor cabinet is named based on its power input mode (the naming rule applies to the
document):
l An APM30H cabinet is named APM30 AC.
l A TMC11H cabinet is named APM30 DC.
l An OMB (AC power input) cabinet is named OMB AC, and an OMB (DC power input) cabinet is
named OMB DC.

A.3 Network Management

Network management involves topology management, communication management, and
security management.
A.3.1 Managing NEs

Before you configure NEs, ensure that the NEs can be managed on the NMS.
A.3.1.1 Creating NEs by Using the Search Method (NCE)

The NCE can find all NEs that communicate with a specific gateway NE by using the IP
address of the gateway NE, the IP address range of the gateway NE, or the NSAP addresses.
In addition, the NCE can create the NEs that are found in batches. Compared with the method
of manually creating NEs, this method is faster and more reliable.

Prerequisites
l The NMS must have proper communication with NEs.
l You must be an NM user with NE operator authority or higher.

NCE
Procedure
Step 1 Choose Topology > Discovery > NE from the Main Menu.
Step 2 Select Transport NE Search tab.
Step 3 Select Search Mode.
l If the NCE server and the gateway NE are in the same network segment, it is recommended that you set
Search Mode to IP auto discovery.
l In other scenarios, it is recommended that you set Search Mode to Search for NE.
If... Then...
Search Mode is set to Search for NE Perform Step 4 to Step 7.
Search Mode is set to IP auto discovery Perform Step 8 to Step 10.
Step 4 If Search Mode is set to Search for NE, you need to add a search domain.
1. Click Add, and then the Input Search Domain dialog box is displayed.
2. Select an address type and enter the search address.

– When Address Type is set to IP Address of GNE or IP Address Range of GNE, and the NCE
server and gateway NE are not in the same network segment, ensure that the IP routes of the
network segments to which the NCE server and gateway NE belong are configured on the NCE and
related routers.
– The factory default user name is root, and its corresponding password is Changeme_123. If you
have changed the password, log in to the NE using the correct password.
3. Click OK.
Step 5 Repeat Step 4 to add several search domains.
Step 6 In the Search for NE dialog box, perform the operations described in the Note part.
l If Create NE after search is selected, you need to specify NE User and Password.
l You can select either Create NE after search or Upload after Create or both Create NE after search
and Upload after Create. In this manner, after the NE searching is complete, the system automatically
creates an NE and uploads the NE.
Step 7 Click Next, and then the Transport NE Search dialog box is displayed.
After the search is complete, all the NEs that are found are displayed in the Result list.
Step 8 If Search Mode is set to IP auto discovery, enter NE User and Password.

The factory default user name is root, and its corresponding password is Changeme_123. If you have
changed the password, log in to the NE using the correct password.
Step 9 Click Next to navigate to the search interface.
Step 10 After the NE to be created is displayed in Result, click Stop. In the dialog box that is
displayed, click Yes.

– When Scheduling Mode is Mode B, E-band link bandwidth changes do not affect the transmission
of high-priority services. In this mode, high-priority services are transmitted on common-band
links, and low-priority services are transmitted on E-band links. However, if high-priority services
exceed the common-band link bandwidth upon a burst, the excessive traffic cannot be transmitted
by E-band links and is discarded.
– When Scheduling Mode is set to Mode A, high-priority and low-priority services are transmitted
on both common-band links and E-band links. In this mode, services are allocated based on the
bandwidth ratio of each link, implementing inter-frequency AM.
– When Scheduling Mode is set to Mode A Access, it is similar to Mode A, but only connect with
Mode A Access.
– When Scheduling Mode is set to Mode B, a threshold can be set to determine the priority of a
service. Only an SP queue can be configured with a PHB. Services in this SP queue and other

Prerequisites

NCE
Context
The intra-board Native E-Line services on an EM6T, EM6TA, EM6F, or EM6FA board can be
forwarded in two modes: Center and Local.

l When the centralized forwarding mode is used, intra-board Native E-Line services must
be forwarded through the packet switching unit of a system control board. Therefore,
double backplane bandwidth resources of the system control board are consumed.
l When the distributed forwarding mode is used, intra-board Native E-Line services are
directly forwarded by the switching units of the board. However, this will restrict the
functions of some packet switching units that depend on system control boards. The
restrictions include:
– Intra-board Native E-Line services do not support the LM function of ETH-OAM.
Therefore, the packet loss rate of the Native E-Line services could not be tested
using meter-free tests.
– The source and sink ports of intra-board Native E-Line services do not support the
LAG function. If the source or sink ports are configured with the LAG function, the
forwarding mode is automatically switched to centralized mode.
l The default forwarding mode configured for an EM6T, EM6TA, EM6F, or EM6FA board
is centralized forwarding.
Other types of Ethernet services on an EM6T, EM6TA, EM6F, or EM6FA board and all types
of Ethernet services on other types of Ethernet boards are forwarded in centralized mode.

l The strict priority (SP) scheduling algorithm is designed for the key services. One important characteristic
of the key services is that higher priorities are required to minimize the response delay in the case of
congestion events.
l The weighted round robin (WRR) scheduling algorithm divides each port into multiple output sub-
queues. The polling scheduling is performed among the output sub-queues to ensure that each sub-queue
has a certain period of service time.
l The OptiX RTN 900 supports the setting of the SP+WRR scheduling algorithm of the CoS queue
according to the requirement, and provides one or more queues that comply with the SP algorithm.
Except for the default value, however, the value of the WRR scheduling algorithm and the value of the SP
scheduling algorithm cannot be interleaved. That is, except for the default value, Grooming Police After

A.9.10.13 Setting the Enabling Status of Automatic Service Loop Detection for
NEs
When the NE supports E-LAN service mounting and the port status changes from down to
up, service loop detection is automatically initiated and looped services are disabled.
Prerequisites

NCE
Context
l Principle of E-LAN service loop detection: Special LD packets are sent (DA is a special
unicast packet, and SA indicates source MAC address. VLAN tags are encapsulated
based on the port that initiates the detection, and service information is encapsulated into
the payload of LD packets). The VLAN ID of LD packets is the same as that of service
packets, and the intermediate NE may forward LD packets as service packets. If the NE
receives the LD packets sent by itself from the same VPN (the SVL bridge is determined
according to the DA and SA, and the IVL bridge is determined according to the DA, SA,
and VLAN), the system considers that a loop exists.
l Automatic loop detection is enabled by default upon service creation and the port status
change.
l If automatic loop detection is enabled upon service creation: service loop detection will
be automatically initiated on the first and last VLANs in the VLAN list after a logical
port is added to the E-LAN. If a loop is detected on either of the two VLANs, the logical
port is disabled. If new VLANs are added on a logical port, service loop detection will be
automatically initiated on the first and last VLANs among the new VLANs. If a loop is
detected on either of the two VLANs, all the newly added VLANs are disabled.
l If automatic loop detection is enabled upon the port status change, service loop detection
will be automatically initiated on all logical ports on a physical port after the physical
port changes from down to up. If multiple VLANs are accessed to a logical port, service
loop detection will be initiated on any two VLANs. If a loop is detected, the logical port
is disabled and the SRV_SHUTDOWN_LD alarm is reported.

Limitation and Impact

l After the function is enabled, loop detection will be initiated only when new services are created or
the physical port changes from down to up. If a loop occurs when neither of the preceding
conditions is met (such as a third-party network loop), it cannot be detected automatically or
disabled.
l If the LD packets sent by an NE are discarded during transmission (including but not limited to link
congestion, link bit error, transient link interruption, and board reset), the service loop cannot be
detected.
l If service loop detection is automatically initiated, after a loop is detected and the service is disabled,
the disabled service cannot be automatically enabled after the loop is eliminated. The disabled
service can only be enabled manually by the user. For details, see Operation Procedure.
l After automatic service loop detection is enabled, an LD packet is sent every second. If a loop is
detected within three consecutive detection periods (a period of five seconds), the system considers
that a loop exists and the service is disabled. If no loop is detected within three consecutive detection
periods (a period of five seconds), the system considers that no loop exists and the detection stops.
l Two VLANs on a logical port are randomly selected for automatic service loop detection. When
loops occur on some VLANs on the logical port: if no loop occurs on the selected VLANs but loops
occur on the other VLANs on the logical port, the loop cannot be detected and the service cannot be
disabled. If loops occur on the selected VLANs but no loop occurs on the other VLANs on the
logical port, the VLANs where no loop occurs are disabled.
l When services are disabled, the NNI of the S-Aware bridge disables all NNIs on the physical port
where the NNI of the S-Aware bridge is configured, and the E-LAN services of other types only
disable the logical port where a loop is detected.
l For VPLSs in IVL mode, when no UNI is configured, the NNI does not support automatic service
loop detection.
l When a loop occurs in a network but no broadcast storm occurs, automatic loop detection may cause
services to be disabled.
Precautions
When a loop occurs in a network but no broadcast storm occurs, automatic loop detection
may cause services to be disabled. If this occurs in a live network, disable the function of
automatic loop detection on the NE and re-enable the disabled service. After that, eliminate
the loop and enable the function again.

A.9.11.1 Enabling the OAM Auto-Discovery Function

The IEEE 802.3ah OAM is realized based on the OAM auto-discovery. After the OAM auto-
discovery succeeds, the equipment automatically monitors the fault and performance of the
link.

Prerequisites

NCE
The OAM auto-discovery is realized based on the auto-negotiation between the local
equipment and the opposite equipment. If the negotiation fails, the local equipment reports an
alarm. After OAM auto-discovery is successfully completed, the link performance is
monitored according to the error frame threshold. You can set the error frame threshold on the
NMS.
Procedure

Step 2 Click the OAM Parameter tab.
Step 3 Select the port, and set OAM Working Mode.
l The OAM mode includes the active mode and the passive mode. For two interconnected systems,
the OAM mode of either or both systems must be the active mode. Otherwise, the OAM auto-
discovery fails.
l If both ends of a link are in passive OAM mode, a link fault occurs, or either end of a link does not
receive OAM protocol packets within 5 seconds, an alarm is reported, indicating that OAM auto-
discovery fails.
Step 4 Set Enable OAM Protocol to Enabled.
Step 6 Click the Remote OAM Parameter tab. Click Query to obtain the OAM capability of the
opposite end. Close the displayed dialog box.
----End

NCE
Procedure
Step 3 Select the corresponding port and set Link Event Notification to Enabled.
----End
A.9.11.3 Modifying the OAM Error Frame Monitoring Threshold

The threshold for the OAM error frame monitoring is a standard for the OAM to detect the
link performance. Generally, the default value is used. You can modify the value according to
the situation of the link.
Prerequisites
l The IEEE 802.3ah OAM function must be enabled on the remote equipment and the
OAM auto-discovery operation must be successful on the equipment at both ends.

NCE
After the OAM auto-discovery operation is successful, the remote link event notification
function is enabled and the monitoring time and errored frame threshold are set at the local
end. If the local equipment detects a link event in the receive direction, it informs the opposite
equipment of the link event. If the remote alarm for the link event is also supported at the

opposite end, the opposite equipment can also inform the local equipment of the link event
that is detected at the opposite end. Then, the corresponding alarm is reported at the local end.
Procedure
Step 2 Click the OAM Error Frame Monitor tab.
Step 3 Select the port and set the parameters in the OAM Error Frame Monitor tab page.
An alarm is reported if the number of errored frame events within Monitor Window or Period Window

equipment, the local end can request the opposite end to return the data.
Prerequisites
l The OAM auto-discovery operation must be successful at both ends of the link.
l On the equipment that initiates the loopback, OAM Working Mode must be set to
Active.
l The equipment that responds to the loopback must support the remote loopback.

NCE
l If a port is capable of responding to loopbacks, it enters the loopback responding state
and reports the loopback responding alarm after receiving the command of enabling the
remote loopback function sent from the opposite OAM port. In this case, the equipment
that initiates the loopback enters the loopback initiation state and reports the loopback
initiation alarm.
l Generally, after the remote loopback function is enabled, service packets, except the
OAMPDU, are looped back at the remote end.
l After using the remote loopback function to complete the fault locating and the link
performance detection, you need to disable the remote loopback function at the end

where the loopback is initiated and then restore the services. The alarm is automatically
cleared.

Parameters for configuring the proxy ARP

Proxy ARP Disabled Disabled l The proxy ARP enables the NEs in the
Enabled same network segment but different
domains to communicate with each
other.
l To realize communication between
such NEs, the source NE sends the
ARP broadcast packet to address the
route to the destination NE. The NE
with the proxy ARP function enabled
checks the routing table after sensing
the ARP broadcast packet. If the
routing table contains the destination
address that the ARP broadcast packet
looks for, the NE returns an ARP
spoofing packet, which enables the NE
that sends the ARP broadcast packet to
consider that the MAC address of the
NE that returns the ARP spoofing
packet is the MAC address of the
destination NE. In this manner, the
packet that is to be sent to the
destination NE is first sent to the NE
with the proxy ARP function enabled
and then forwarded to the destination
NE.

protection.
l When Working Mode is set to FD,
the system uses two channels that
have a frequency spacing between
them, to transmit and receive the
same signal. The remote end selects
signals from the two received
signals. With FD protection, the
impact of the fading on signal
transmission is reduced.
l When Working Mode is set to SD,
the system uses two antennas that
have a space distance between them,
to receive the same signal. The
equipment selects signals from the
two received signals. With SD
protection, the impact of the fading
on signal transmission is reduced.
l The FD mode and SD mode are
compatible with the HSB switching
function.

Revertive Mode Revertive Mode Revertive Mode l This parameter specifies the
Non-Revertive revertive mode of the IF 1+1
protection.
l When Revertive Mode is set to
Revertive Mode, the NE that is in
the switching state releases the

working channel to return to the
normal state some time after the
former working channel is restored
to normal. It is recommended that
you set this parameter to Revertive
Mode.
l When Revertive Mode is set to
Non-Revertive, the NE that is in the
switching state keeps the current
state unchanged unless another
switching occurs even though the
former working channel is restored
to normal.
WTR Time(s) 300 to 720 600 l This parameter specifies the wait-to-
restore (WTR) time.
working channel is restored to
normal reaches the set WTR

recommended that you use the
default value.

Enable Reverse Enabled Enabled l This parameter indicates whether

Switching Disabled the reverse switching function is
enabled.
l When both the main IF board and
the standby IF board at the sink end
report service alarms, they send the
alarms to the source end by using
the MWRDI overhead in the

switching at the same time.
l Hold-off Time(100ms) is generally set
to prevent SNCP protection switching,
when SNCP works with N+1
protection. Hold-off Time(100ms)
must be longer than the switching time
of any protection mode that works with
SNCP. Generally, Hold-off
Time(100ms) is set to 200 ms.
l When SNCP works with 1+1 FD/SD,
trigger conditions for HSM switching
or SNCP switching trigger HSM
switching but do not trigger SNCP
switching. Therefore, Hold-off
Time(100ms) does not need to be set in
this case.
l The switching time of 1+1 HSB/FD/SD
protection is much longer than that of
SNCP. Therefore, to shorten service
interruptions, it is recommended that
you do not set Hold-off Time(100ms)

where the NE performs SNCP
switching and other protection
switching at the same time.
l Hold-off Time(100ms) is generally set
to prevent SNCP protection switching,
when SNCP works with N+1
protection. Hold-off Time(100ms)
must be longer than the switching time
of any protection mode that works with
SNCP. Generally, Hold-off
Time(100ms) is set to 200 ms.
l When SNCP works with 1+1 FD/SD,
trigger conditions for HSM switching
or SNCP switching trigger HSM
switching but do not trigger SNCP
switching. Therefore, Hold-off
Time(100ms) does not need to be set in
this case.
l The switching time of 1+1 HSB/FD/SD
protection is much longer than that of
SNCP. Therefore, to shorten service
interruptions, it is recommended that

l The VLAN ID of the UNI-UNI E-Line service can be converted after a VLAN forwarding table item is
created. In this case, a service from Source Interface to Sink Interface carries the VLAN ID specified in
Sink VLAN ID when the service is transmitted from Sink Interface.
l The VLAN ID in a VLAN forwarding table item is converted unidirectionally and can be converted from
Source VLAN ID to Sink VLAN ID only. The VLAN ID can be converted bidirectionally only when the
other VLAN forwarding table item is configured reversely.
l In normal cases, Ethernet services are bidirectional. Hence, you need to set bidirectional conversion of
VLAN IDs.

Parameters
ERPS ID 1 to 8 - This parameter

indicates the ID of
the ERPS instance.
East Port - - This parameter

indicates the east port
of the ERPS
instance.
West Port - - This parameter

indicates the west
port of the ERPS
instance.
ERP Ring Node Flag - - l This parameter

indicates the ring
port
corresponding to

Flag.
Flag Port - - This parameter

indicates the flag port
of the ERPS
instance.

Control VLAN 1 to 4094 - l This parameter

indicates or
specifies the
VLAN ID of
Control VLAN.
l Each node on the
Ethernet ring
transmits the R-
APS packets on
the dedicated ring
APS (R-APS)
channel to ensure
consistency
between the
nodes when the
ERPS switching
is performed.
Control VLAN is
used for isolating
the dedicated R-
APS channel.
Therefore, the
VLAN ID in
Control VLAN
cannot be
duplicate with the
VLAN IDs that
are contained in
the service
packets or inband
DCN packets.
l The Control
VLAN must be
set to the same
value for all the
NEs on an ERPS
ring.
Destination Node 01-19-A7-00-00-01 - This parameter

indicates the MAC
address of the
destination node. The
default destination
MAC address in the
R-APS packets is
always 01-19-
A7-00-00-01.

Current Node - - This parameter

indicates the node
that initiates a
switching request.
Revertive Mode Revertive - This parameter

Non-Revertive indicates the
revertive mode and
can be reset.
Compatible_Version ver2 ver2 l This parameter

ver1 indicates the
configured
compatible ERPS
protocol version
and can be reset.
l For multi-ring
networks,
Compatible_Ver
sion for all ring
nodes must be
ver2.
l For single ring
networks,
Compatible_Ver
sion for ring
nodes except the
RPL owner can
be either ver1 or
ver2.
Compatible_Ver
sion for the RPL
owner must be
ver2.
Virtual Channel Status Enable Enable l This parameter

Disable indicates the
configured status
and VLAN ID of
an R-APS virtual
channel, and can
be reset.
l For details about
the value of this
parameter, refer
to Planning
Guidelines for R-
APS Virtual
Channels in the

Virtual Channel VLANs 1 to 4094 - Feature

Description.
Major ERPS Ring ID - - Set this parameter

only for the sub-ring
ERPS instance on an
interconnection node
to associate the sub-
ring ERPS instance
with the major ring
ERPS instance.
ETH Type Domain Transfer mode Transfer mode l If an ERP ring

Standard mode consists of OptiX
RTN and third-
party equipment
and the type
domain in R-APS
packets used by
the third-party
equipment is
0x8902, set ETH
Type Domain to
Standard mode
(Ox8902) for the
OptiX RTN
equipment.
l In other cases,
retain the default
value Transfer
mode (Ox8809)
for this parameter.

Hold-Off Time(ms) - 0 l This parameter

indicates or
specifies the hold-
off time of the
ERPS hold-off
timer.
l The hold-off
timer is used for
negotiating the
protection
switching
sequence when
the ERPS coexists
with other
protection
schemes so that
the fault can be
rectified in the
case of other
protection
switching (such
as LAG
protection) before
the ERPS occurs.
When a node on
the ring detects
one or more new
faults, it starts up
the hold-off timer
if the preset hold-
off time is set to a
value that is not
0. During the
hold-off time, the
fault is not
reported to trigger
an ERPS. When
the hold-off timer
times out, the
node checks the
link status
regardless
whether the fault
that triggers the
startup of the
timer exists. If the
fault exists, the
node reports it to
trigger an ERPS.
This fault can be

the same as or
different from the
fault that triggers
the initial startup
of the hold-off
timer.

Guard Time(ms) - 500 l This parameter

indicates or
specifies the
guard time of the
ERPS guard
timer.
l The nodes on the
ring continuously
forward the R-
APS packets to
the Ethernet ring.
As a result, the
outdated R-APS
packets may exist
on the ring
network. After a
node on the ring
receives the
outdated R-APS
packets, an
incorrect ERPS
may occur. The
ERPS guard timer
is an R-APS timer
used for
preventing a node
on the ring from
receiving
outdated R-APS
packets. When a
faulty node on the
ring detects that
the switching
condition is
cleared, the node
starts up the
guard timer and
starts to forward
the R-APS (NR)
packets. During
this period, the R-
APS packets
received by the
node are
discarded. The
received R-APS
packets are
forwarded only
after the time of

the guard timer

expires.

WTR Time(mm:ss) 1 to 12, in step of 1 5 l This parameter

indicates or
specifies the
WTR time of the
WRT timer in the
case of ERPS
protection.
l The WTR time
refers to the
duration from the
time when the
working channel
is restored to the
time when the
switching is
released. When
the working
channel is
restored, the
WTR timer of the
RPL owner starts
up. In addition, a
signal that
indicates the
operation of the
WTR timer is
continuously
output in the
timing process.
When the WTR
timer times out
and no switching
request of a
higher priority is
received, the
signal indicating
the operation of
the WTR timer is
not transmitted.
In addition, the
WTR release
signal is
continuously
output.
l The WTR timer is
used to prevent
frequent
switching caused
by the unstable
working channel.

Packet Transmit Interval(s) 1 to 10 5 This parameter

displays or specifies
the interval for
sending R-APS
packets periodically.
Entity Level 0 to 7 4 This parameter

the level of the
maintenance entity.
Last Switching Request - - This parameter

indicates the last
switching request.
RB Status - - This parameter

indicates the RB
(RPL Blocked) status
of the packets
received by the
working node.
l noRB: The RPL
is not blocked.
l RB: The RPL is
blocked.

DNF Status - - This parameter

indicates the DNF
status of the packets
received by the
working node.
l noDNF: The R-
APS packets do
not contain the
DNF flag. In this
case, the packets
are forwarded by
the node that
detects the fault
on a non-RPL
link, and the node
that receives the
packets is
requested to clear
the forwarding
address table.
l DNF: The R-APS
packets contain
the DNF flags. In
this case, the
packets are
forwarded by the
node that detects
the fault on an
RPL link, and the
node that receives
the packets is
informed not to
clear the
forwarding
address table.

State Machine Status - - This parameter

indicates the status of
the state machine at
the working node.
l Idle: The Ethernet
ring is in normal
state. For
example, no node
on the Ethernet
ring detects any
faults or receives
the R_APS (NR,
RB) packets.
l Protection: The
Ethernet ring is in
protected state.
For example, a
fault on the node
triggers the
ERPS, or a node
on the ring is in
the WTR period
after the fault is
rectified.
Node Carried with Current Packet - - This parameter

indicates the MAC
address carried in the
R-APS packets
received by the
current node. The
MAC address refers
to the MAC address
of the source node
that initiates the
switching request.
East Port Status - - This parameter

displays the status of
the east port.
West Port Status - - This parameter

displays the status of
the west port.
Bound Port - - This parameter

displays a sub-ring
port. It applies to
only an ERPS sub-
ring.

Bound MEP - - This parameter

specifies the MEP
with which a sub-
ring port is bound. It
applies to only an
ERPS sub-ring.
Interconnected Node None None l This parameter

recommended that
you set Load Sharing
to Non-Sharing at
both ends if the LAGs
are used for protection
and set Load Sharing
to Sharing at both
ends if the LAGs are
used for increasing
bandwidths.
l Sharing: Each
member link of a
LAG processes traffic
at the same time and
shares the traffic load.
The sharing mode can
increase a bandwidth
utilization for the link.
When the LAG
members change, or
certain links fail, the
system automatically
re-allocates the traffic.
l Non-Sharing: Only
one member link of a
LAG carries traffic,
and the other link is in
the standby state. In
this case, a hot backup
mechanism is
provided. When the
active link of a LAG

B.7.2.2 Parameter Description: ERPS Management

This topic describes the parameters that are used for Ethernet ring protection switching
(ERPS) management.
Navigation Path
In the NE Explorer, select the EMS6 board. Choose Configuration > Ethernet Protection >
Parameters
ERPS ID 1 to 7 - This parameter

indicates the ID of
the ERPS instance.

indicates the east
port of the ERPS
instance.

indicates the west
port of the ERPS
instance.
RPL Owner Ring Node Flag Yes - This parameter

No indicates whether a
node on the ring is
the ring protection
link (RPL) owner.
RPL Port - - This parameter

indicates the RPL
port.


indicates or
specifies the
VLAN ID of
Control VLAN.
l Each node on the
Ethernet ring
transmits the R-
APS packets on
the dedicated ring
APS (R-APS)
channel to ensure
consistency
between the
nodes when the
ERPS switching
is performed.
Control VLAN
is used for
isolating the
dedicated R-APS
channel.
Therefore, the
VLAN ID in
Control VLAN
cannot be
duplicate with the
VLAN IDs that
are contained in
the service
packets or inband
DCN packets.
l The Control
VLAN must be
set to the same
value for all the
NEs on an ERPS
ring.
Destination Node 01-19-A7-00-00-01 - This parameter

indicates the MAC
address of the
default destination
MAC address in the
R-APS packets is
always 01-19-
A7-00-00-01.

Hold-Off Time(ms) - 0 l This parameter

indicates or
specifies the
hold-off time of
the ERPS hold-
off timer.
l The hold-off
timer is used for
negotiating the
protection
switching
sequence when
the ERPS
coexists with
other protection
schemes so that
the fault can be
rectified in the
case of other
protection
switching (such
as LAG
protection) before
the ERPS occurs.
When a node on
the ring detects
one or more new
faults, it starts up
the hold-off timer
if the preset hold-
off time is set to a
value that is not
0. During the
hold-off time, the
fault is not
reported to trigger
an ERPS. When
the hold-off timer
times out, the
node checks the
link status
regardless
whether the fault
that triggers the
startup of the
timer exists. If the
fault exists, the
node reports it to
trigger an ERPS.
This fault can be

the same as or
different from the
fault that triggers
the initial startup
of the hold-off
timer.

Guard Time(ms) - 500 l This parameter

indicates or
specifies the
guard time of the
ERPS guard
timer.
l The nodes on the
ring continuously
forward the R-
APS packets to
the Ethernet ring.
As a result, the
outdated R-APS
packets may exist
on the ring
network. After a
node on the ring
receives the
outdated R-APS
packets, an
incorrect ERPS
may occur. The
ERPS guard timer
is an R-APS
timer used for
preventing a node
on the ring from
receiving
outdated R-APS
packets. When a
faulty node on the
ring detects that
the switching
condition is
cleared, the node
starts up the
guard timer and
starts to forward
the R-APS (NR)
packets. During
this period, the R-
APS packets
received by the
node are
discarded. The
received R-APS
packets are
forwarded only
after the time of

the guard timer

expires.

WTR Time(mm:ss) 5 to 12, in step of 1 5 l This parameter

indicates or
specifies the
WTR time of the
WRT timer in the
case of ERPS
protection.
l The WTR time
refers to the
duration from the
time when the
working channel
is restored to the
time when the
switching is
released. When
the working
channel is
restored, the
WTR timer of the
RPL owner starts
up. In addition, a
signal that
indicates the
operation of the
WTR timer is
continuously
output in the
timing process.
When the WTR
timer times out
and no switching
request of a
higher priority is
received, the
signal indicating
the operation of
the WTR timer is
not transmitted.
In addition, the
WTR release
signal is
continuously
output.
l The WTR timer
is used to prevent
frequent
switching caused
by the unstable
working channel.

Packet Transmit Interval(s) 1 to 10 5 This parameter

displays or specifies
the interval for
sending R-APS
packets periodically.
Entity Level 0 to 7 4 This parameter

the level of the
maintenance entity.
Last Switching Request - - This parameter

indicates the last
switching request.
RB Status - - This parameter

indicates the RB
(RPL Blocked) status
of the packets
received by the
working node.
l noRB: The RPL
is not blocked.
l RB: The RPL is
blocked.

DNF Status - - This parameter

indicates the DNF
status of the packets
received by the
working node.
l noDNF: The R-
APS packets do
not contain the
DNF flag. In this
case, the packets
are forwarded by
the node that
detects the fault
on a non-RPL
link, and the node
that receives the
packets is
requested to clear
the forwarding
address table.
l DNF: The R-APS
packets contain
the DNF flags. In
this case, the
packets are
forwarded by the
node that detects
the fault on an
RPL link, and the
node that receives
the packets is
informed not to
clear the
forwarding
address table.

State Machine Status - - This parameter

the state machine at
the working node.
l Idle: The Ethernet
ring is in normal
state. For
example, no node
on the Ethernet
ring detects any
faults or receives
the R_APS (NR,
RB) packets.
l Protection: The
Ethernet ring is in
protected state.
For example, a
fault on the node
triggers the
ERPS, or a node
on the ring is in
the WTR period
after the fault is
rectified.
Node Carried with Current Packet - - This parameter

indicates the MAC
address carried in the
R-APS packets
received by the
current node. The
MAC address refers
to the MAC address
of the source node
that initiates the
switching request.

broadcast in the VLAN.
l Set this parameter as required by the
IGMP multicast server.
Max.Non- 1 to 4 3 If the bridge transmits an IGMP group

Response Times query packet to the multicast member
ports, the router port starts the timer for the
query of the maximum response time. If
the bridge does not receive the IGMP
report packet within the maximum
response time, the bridge adds one to the
no-response times of the multicast member
port. When the no-response times of the
port exceed the preset threshold, the bridge
deletes the multicast member from the

certain period (that is, no IGMP request
from this multicast address is received),
this entry is automatically deleted. This
mechanism is called aging, and this
period is called aging time.
l If this parameter is set to a very great
value, the bridge stores excessive
multicast table entries that are no
longer needed, which exhausts the
resources of the multicast table.
l If this parameter is set to a very small
value, the bridge may delete the
multicast table entry that is needed,
which reduces the forwarding
efficiency.

B.7.2.12 Parameter Description: Ethernet Link Aggregation_Creation of LAGs

This topic describes the parameters for creating a link aggregation group (LAG).
Navigation Path
2. Click the Link Aggregation Group Management tab.
3. Click New.
Attribute Parameters
LAG No. EFP8: 1-12 1 Specifies the LAG number.

EMS6: 1-8
LAG Name - - Specifies the LAG name.

LAG Type Static Static l Static: A static LAG is created by the

Manual user. To add or delete a member port,
you need to run the Link Aggregation
Control Protocol (LACP) protocol. In a
static LAG, a port can be in selected,
standby, or unselected state. By running
the LACP protocol, devices exchange
aggregation information so that they
share the same aggregation
information.
l Manual: A manual LAG is created by
the user. When you add or delete a
member port, you need not run the
LACP protocol. In a manual LAG, a
port can be in the UP or DOWN state.
The system determines whether to
aggregate a port according to its
physical state (UP or DOWN), working
mode, and rate.
Load Sharing Sharing Sharing l Sharing: In a sharing LAG, all member

Non-Sharing ports always share the traffic load. The
sharing mode can improve bandwidth
utilization on a link. When the member
ports are changed or some member
ports fail, the traffic load of each
member port is automatically re-
allocated.
l Non-Sharing: In a non-sharing LAG,
only one member port carries the traffic
load and the other member ports are in
Standby state. Actually, a non-sharing
LAG works in hot-standby mode.
When the active port fails, the system
selects a standby port to substitute for
the failed port, thus preventing a link
failure.
Sharing Mode IP Sharing Mode IP Sharing Mode You can set this parameter only when
MAC Sharing Load Sharing is Sharing.
Mode

Revertive Mode Revertive Revertive l You can set this parameter only when
Non-Revertive Load Sharing is Non-Sharing.
l If this parameter is set to Revertive,
services are automatically switched
back to the working path after the
working path recovers.
l If this parameter is set to Non-
Revertive, services are still transmitted
in the protection path after the working
path recovers and the LAG remains the
same.
Port Setting Parameters

Main Port - - l Specifies the main port in a LAG.

l After a LAG is created, you can add
Ethernet services to the main port only.
That is, services cannot be added to a
slave port.
l When Load Sharing is set to Non-
Sharing, the link connected to the
main port is the working path and the
links connected to the slave ports are
protection paths.
Available Standby - - l Specifies the slave port in a LAG.

Ports l After a LAG is created, you need to
perform manual operations to add or
delete a slave port.
Selected Standby - - Displays the selected slave ports.

Queue 6: WRR The scheduling principles of the SP+WRR
are as follows:
Queue 7: WRR
l A port immediately transmits the
Queue 8: SP
packets in the SP queue and can
transmit the packets in the WRR queue
only when no packets exist in the SP
queue.
l If multiple SP queues exist on a port,
the port compares the SP queues
according to their priorities (queue 8
has the highest priority and queue 1 has
the lowest priority).
l According to the fixed weight value,
you can allocate the time slice to each
WRR queue. Then, the port transmits
the packets in the corresponding WRR
queue in each time slice. If a WRR
queue in a time slice does not contain
any packets, the WRR queue removes
this time slice and then transmits the
packets in the corresponding WRR
queue in the next time slice.

Parameters for Setting a Clock Subnet

Affiliated Subnet - - The NE does not support

this parameter.

Protection Status Start Extended SSM Stop SSM Protocol l The SSM protocol is a
Protocol scheme used for
Start Standard SSM synchronous
Protocol management on an
SDH network and
Stop SSM Protocol indicates that the
SSM is passed by the
lower four bits of the
S1 byte and can be
exchanged between
the nodes. The SSM
protocol ensures that
the equipment
automatically selects
the clock source of
the highest quality
and highest priority,
thus preventing
mutual clock tracing.
l After the standard
SSM protocol is
started, the NE first
performs the
on the clock source
quality level
information provided
by the S1 byte. If the
quality level of the
clock source is the
same, the NE then
performs the
priority table. That is,
the NE selects an
unlocked clock source
that is of the highest
quality and highest
priority from all the
current available
clock sources as the
clock source to be
synchronized and
traced by the local
station.
l If the SSM protocol is
stopped, it indicates

that the S1 byte is not

used. The NE selects
and switches a clock
source only according
to the sequence
specified in the
priority table. The
clock source of the
highest priority is
used as the clock
source to be traced.
l After the SSM
protocol is stopped,
each NE performs the
on the clock
according to the
preset priority table of
the clock source only
when the clock source
of a higher priority is
lost.
Clock Source - - This parameter indicates

Data Output Method in Normal Data Output Normal Data Output l When all the
Holdover Mode Keep the Latest Data reference timing
signals are lost, the
slave clock changes to
the holdover mode. At
this time, the slave
clock works based on
the latest frequency
information stored
before the reference
timing signals are
lost. Then, the
frequency of the
oscillator drifts slowly
to ensure that the
offset between the
frequency of the slave
clock and the
reference frequency is
very small. As a
result, the impact
caused by the drift is
limited within the
specified requirement.
l Normal Data Output:
The slave clock works
based on the latest
frequency information
stored before the
reference timing
signals are lost, and
the holdover duration
depends on the size of
the phase-locked
clock register on the
equipment. The
holdover duration can
be up to 24 hours.
l Keep the Latest Data:
The slave clock works
in holdover mode all
the time based on the
latest frequency
information stored
before the reference
timing signals are
lost.

Access Control List A list of entities, together with their access rights, which are authorized to access a
(ACL) resource.
Address Resolution An Internet Protocol used to map IP addresses to MAC addresses. The ARP protocol
Protocol (ARP) enables hosts and routers to determine link layer addresses through ARP requests and
responses. The address resolution is a process by which the host converts the target IP
address into a target MAC address before transmitting a frame. The basic function of
ARP is to use the target equipment's IP address to query its MAC address.
adaptive modulation A technology that is used to automatically adjust the modulation mode according to
(AM) the channel quality. When the channel quality is favorable, the equipment uses a high-
efficiency modulation mode to improve the transmission efficiency and the spectrum
utilization of the system. When the channel quality is degraded, the equipment uses
the low-efficiency modulation mode to improve the anti-interference capability of the
link that carries high-priority services.
adjacent channel A channel configuration method, which uses two adjacent channels (a horizontal
alternate polarization polarization wave and a vertical polarization wave) to transmit two signals.
(ACAP)
alarm suppression A method to suppress alarms for the alarm management purpose. Alarms that are
suppressed are no longer reported from NEs.
analog signal A signal in which information is represented with a continuously variable physical
quantity, such as voltage. Because of this constant changing of the wave shape with
regard to its passing a given point in time or space, an analog signal might have a
virtually indefinite number of states or values. This contrasts with a digital signal that
is expressed as a square wave and therefore has a very limited number of discrete
states. Analog signals, with complicated structures and narrow bandwidth, are
vulnerable to external interference.
application-specific A special type of chip that starts out as a nonspecific collection of logic gates. Late in
integrated circuit the manufacturing process, a layer is added to connect the gates for a specific function.
(ASIC) By changing the pattern of connections, the manufacturer can make the chip suitable
for many needs.
assured forwarding One of the four per-hop behaviors (PHB) defined by the Diff-Serv workgroup of IETF.
(AF) It is suitable for certain key data services that require assured bandwidth and short
delay. For traffic within the bandwidth limit, AF assures quality in forwarding. For
traffic that exceeds the bandwidth limit, AF degrades the service class and continues
to forward the traffic instead of discarding the packets.
attenuator A device used to increase the attenuation of an Optical Fiber Link. Generally used to
ensure that the signal at the receive end is not too strong.
automatic laser A technique (procedure) to automatically shutdown the output power of laser
shutdown (ALS) transmitters and optical amplifiers to avoid exposure to hazardous levels.
automatic transmit A method of adjusting the transmit power based on fading of the transmit signal
power control (ATPC) detected at the receiver
autonomous system A router that exchanges routing information with other autonomous system boundary
boundary router routers.
(ASBR)
available bit rate A kind of service categories defined by the ATM forum. ABR only provides possible
(ABR) forwarding service and applies to the connections that does not require the real-time
quality. It does not provide any guarantee in terms of cell loss or delay.

B
B-ISDN See broadband integrated services digital network.
BDI See backward defect indication.
BE See best effort.
BER bit error rate
BFD See Bidirectional Forwarding Detection.
BGP Border Gateway Protocol
BIOS See basic input/output system.
BIP See bit interleaved parity.
BPDU See bridge protocol data unit.
BSC See base station controller.
BTS base transceiver station
Bidirectional A fast and independent hello protocol that delivers millisecond-level link failure
Forwarding Detection detection and provides carrier-class availability. After sessions are established between
(BFD) neighboring systems, the systems can periodically send BFD packets to each other. If
one system fails to receive a BFD packet within the negotiated period, the system
regards that the bidirectional link fails and instructs the upper layer protocol to take
actions to recover the faulty link.
backbone network A network that forms the central interconnection for a connected network. The
communication backbone for a country is WAN. The backbone network is an
important architectural element for building enterprise networks. It provides a path for
the exchange of information between different LANs or subnetworks. A backbone can
tie together diverse networks in the same building, in different buildings in a campus
environment, or over wide areas. Generally, the backbone network's capacity is greater
than the networks connected to it.
backward defect A function that the sink node of a LSP, when detecting a defect, uses to inform the
indication (BDI) upstream end of the LSP of a downstream defect along the return path.
base station controller A logical entity that connects the BTS with the MSC in a GSM/CDMA network. It
(BSC) interworks with the BTS through the Abis interface, the MSC through the A interface.
It provides the following functions: radio resource management, base station
management, power control, handover control, and traffic measurement. One BSC
controls and manages one or more BTSs in an actual network.
basic input/output Firmware stored on the computer motherboard that contains basic input/output control
system (BIOS) programs, power-on self test (POST) programs, bootstraps, and system setting
information. The BIOS provides hardware setting and control functions for the
computer.
baud rate The maximum rate of signal state changes per second on a communications circuit. If
each signal state change corresponds to a code bit, then the baud rate and the bit rate
are the same. It is also possible for signal state changes to correspond to more than one
code bit, so the baud rate may be lower than the code bit rate.

best effort (BE) A traditional IP packet transport service. In this service, the diagrams are forwarded
following the sequence of the time they reach. All diagrams share the bandwidth of
the network and routers. The amount of resource that a diagram can use depends of the
time it reaches. BE service does not ensure any improvement in delay time, jitter,
packet loss ratio, and high reliability.
bit interleaved parity A method of error monitoring. With even parity, the transmitting equipment generates
(BIP) an X-bit code over a specified portion of the signal in such a manner that the first bit
of the code provides even parity over the first bit of all X-bit sequences in the covered
portion of the signal, the second bit provides even parity over the second bit of all X-
bit sequences within the specified portion, and so forth. Even parity is generated by
setting the BIP-X bits so that an even number of 1s exist in each monitored partition
of the signal. A monitored partition comprises all bits in the same bit position within
the X-bit sequences in the covered portion of the signal. The covered portion includes
the BIP-X.
bridge A device that connects two or more networks and forwards packets among them.
Bridges operate at the physical network level. Bridges differ from repeaters because
bridges store and forward complete packets, while repeaters forward all electrical
signals. Bridges differ from routers because bridges use physical addresses, while
routers use IP addresses.
bridge protocol data Data messages exchanged across switches within an extended LAN that uses a
unit (BPDU) spanning tree protocol (STP) topology. BPDU packets contain information on ports,
addresses, priorities, and costs, and they ensure that the data reaches its intended
destination. BPDU messages are exchanged across bridges to detect loops in a
network topology. These loops are then removed by shutting down selected bridge
interfaces and placing redundant switch ports in a backup, or blocked, state.
broadband integrated A standard defined by the ITU-T to handle high-bandwidth applications, such as
services digital voice. It currently uses the ATM technology to transmit data over SONNET-based
network (B-ISDN) circuits at 155 to 622 Mbit/s or higher speed.
broadcast A means of delivering information to all members in a network. The broadcast range
is determined by the broadcast address.
broadcast domain A group of network stations that receives broadcast packets originating from any
device within the group. The broadcast domain also refers to the set of ports between
which a device forwards a multicast, broadcast, or unknown destination frame.

Central Processing The computational and control unit of a computer. The CPU is the device that
Unit (CPU) interprets and executes instructions. The CPU has the ability to fetch, decode, and
execute instructions and to transfer information to and from other resources over the
computer's main data-transfer path, the bus.
Code Division Multiple A communication scheme that uses frequency expansion technology to form different
Access (CDMA) code sequences. When the CDMA scheme is used, subscribers with different
addresses can use different code sequences for multi-address connection.
Common Object A specification developed by the Object Management Group in 1992 in which pieces
Request Broker of programs (objects) communicate with other objects in other programs, even if the
Architecture (CORBA) two programs are written in different programming languages and are running on
different platforms. A program makes its request for objects through an object request
broker, or ORB, and therefore does not need to know the structure of the program
from which the object comes. CORBA is designed to work in object-oriented
environments.
Common and Internal The single spanning tree jointly calculated by STP and RSTP, the logical connectivity
Spanning Tree (CIST) using MST bridges and regions, and MSTP. The CIST ensures that all LANs in the
bridged local area network are simply and fully connected.
cable tie A cable tie (also known as a wire tie, hose tie, steggel tie, or zip tie, and by the brand
names Ty-Rap) is a type of fastener, for holding items together, primarily electrical
cables or wires.
carrier sense multiple Carrier sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD) is a computer
access with collision networking access method in which: a carrier sensing scheme is used. a transmitting
detection (CSMA/CD) data station that detects another signal while transmitting a frame, stops transmitting
that frame, transmits a jam signal, and then waits for a random time interval before
trying to send that frame again.
channel A telecommunication path of a specific capacity and/or speed between two or more
locations in a network. The channel can be established through wire, radio
(microwave), fiber, or any combination of the three. The amount of information
transmitted per second in a channel is the information transmission speed, expressed
in bits per second. For example, b/s (100 bit/s), kb/s (103 bit/s), Mb/s (106 bit/s), Gb/s
(109 bit/s), and Tb/s (1012 bit/s).

circuit emulation A function with which the E1/T1 data can be transmitted through ATM networks. At
service (CES) the transmission end, the interface module packs timeslot data into ATM cells. These
ATM cells are sent to the reception end through the ATM network. At the reception
end, the interface module re-assigns the data in these ATM cells to E1/T1 timeslots.
The CES technology guarantees that the data in E1/T1 timeslots can be recovered to
the original sequence at the reception end.
clock tracing The method of keeping the time on each node synchronized with a clock source in the
network.
co-channel dual A channel configuration method, which uses a horizontal polarization wave and a
polarization (CCDP) vertical polarization wave to transmit two signals. The Co-Channel Dual Polarization
has twice the transmission capacity of the single polarization.
committed burst size A parameter used to define the capacity of token bucket C, that is, the maximum burst
(CBS) IP packet size when information is transferred at the committed information rate. This
parameter must be greater than 0 but should be not less than the maximum length of
an IP packet to be forwarded.
continuity check (CC) An Ethernet connectivity fault management (CFM) method used to detect the
connectivity between MEPs by having each MEP periodically transmit a Continuity
Check Message (CCM).
cross-polarization A technology used in the case of the Co-Channel Dual Polarization (CCDP) to
interference eliminate the cross-connect interference between two polarization waves in the CCDP.
cancellation (XPIC)
customer edge (CE) A part of the BGP/MPLS IP VPN model that provides interfaces for directly
connecting to the Service Provider (SP) network. A CE can be a router, switch, or
host.
cyclic redundancy A mathematical checksum that can be used to detect data corruption in transmitted
check (CRC) frames. The CRC is a linear hash function, and should not be used for data security
assurance.
