Traffic protection:
› 1- (1+1 E1 SNCP): is a protection mechanism used for
traffic protection on E1 level It is based on the simple
principle that one E1 traffic is transmitted on two separate
E1 connections. The two E1’s are from the same link or
from two links at the same direction like Dual polarization
or the comely using is from two different links routed
through one ring.
› LAG (Ethernet protection): used to backup Ethernet traffic
which is coming from two different physical ports at the TN
or from two different links usually a part of one ring.
› MSP (1+1 STM1 for SDH): is a protection mechanism used
for traffic protection on STM1, between two nodes of SDH
traffic.
› MSP Example: if we have two copy of one STM1 in Node
site and need to implement MSP protection.
Khalil Al-Alami | 8-May-2017| Page 19
Some MW TRM protection Techniques:
› In this example I will assume that one STM1 coming from
backbone MW Ring and the other coming from the optical
Ring and both carrying the same traffic, in case one of
them goes down the other still carrying the traffic.

Software Baseline Upgrade
› During the activation the TN will be restarted. After your laptop
reconnected to the TN right click the NE in the Management
Tree menu. Choose Tools, Software Upgrade -> Software
Upgrade. The "Confirm Software Upgrade" page appears. Click
yes if you want to permanently activate the new SBL and you
found that the every things are functioning properly and then be
sure to click save.
› If you didn’t do this step
and save it the ML-TN
system Will Automatically
revert back to the previous
SBL after 15mimutes
› Finally Verify that the
software baseline has
been upgraded by review
the Inventory as explained
at beginning.

Software Baseline Upgrade
› All the Plugins that installed in the AMM during the upgrade
session will be automatically upgraded/downgraded according to
the new SBL.
› In case you want to plug a new plugin to the AMM the if the SBL
for the board is not as the AMM SBL the board LED will slowly
blink and indicates that it need Software upgrade, by same
previous steps to upgrade but here select upgrade modules.
› Another easy way to upgrade a new plugged plugin is by
following the below steps:
› 1- before you plug the plugin unit like MMU, first make sure that
there is remotely active FTP server having the desired SBL
either this server are remotely in the MSM or locally on your
laptop.
› 2- plug the Module and wait a while. If the connection to the
server succeeded then the new SBL will be automatically
downloaded to the Plugin board ROM.
