4 Configuring WDM Services for OTU Boards with

Cross-Connect Capability
This section describes how to configure GE services by using the LQMS board.
2.4.1 Configuration Networking Diagram
This section describes how to configure a GE service on a ring network.
Service Requirement
On the network shown in Figure 2-16, ONEs A, B, C, and D form a ring network. All the
NEs function as OADM stations. The service requirement is as follows:
User1 and User2 communicate with each other. One unidirectional GE service is available
between station A and station B.

Figure 2-16 Configuration networking diagram of the GE service

Board Configuration Information

In this example, two 12LQMS boards must be configured at each station.
2.4.2 Service Signal Flow
This section describes how to configure the transparent transmission signal flow of a GE
service.
One bidirectional GE service is available between station A and station B.
Figure 2-17 shows the service signal flow between station A and station B.
Figure 2-17 Unidirectional service at each station

NOTE
ClientLP is a logical port. Cross-connections between client-side RX/TX ports and ClientLP ports need
to be configured. There are connections between ClientLP ports and WDM-side IN/OUT ports, and
therefore cross-connections do not need to be configured.
2.4.3 Configuration Process
This section describes how to configure a bidirectional GE service at stations A and B.

Prerequisite
Fibers are connected correctly according to the network structure. (Namely, OCh trails can be
searched out. For details, see 8.6 Searching for WDM Trails.)
Check parameters of the OTU board and ensure that no error is found. .
You must be an NM user with "NE operator" authority or higher.
Tools, Equipment, and Materials
U2000/Web LCT (U2000 is recommended)
Background Information
If the capacity of the configured services is greater than the available cross-connection
capacity, the service configuration fails.

Procedure on the U2000/Web LCT

Step 1 Set Board Mode of the TN12LQMS boards at stations A and B to LQM Mode. For details,
see Configuring the Board Mode.
NOTE
After Board Mode is set to LQM Mode, the TN12LQMS board can serve as a tributary and line board and
convert four Any services into one OTU1 service.
Step 2 Set Service Mode of the client-side ports on the TN12LQMS boards at stations A and B to
Client Mode. For details, see Configuring the Service Mode.
NOTE
After Service Mode is set to Client Mode, the TN12LQMS board can access services other than OTN
services.
Step 3 Set Service Type of the client-side ports on the TN12LQMS boards at stations A and B to
GE. For details, see Configuring the Service Type.
Step 4 Configure the service to be added or dropped at station A.
1. Configure a GE service from the RX/TX port of the LQMS board to the ClientLP port.
For details, see Creating Cross-Connections.
The following table lists the values of the parameters for station A.
NOTE
For details on how to select a port for electrical cross-connection services, see 2.4.2 Service
Signal Flow.
Step 5 Click Query. Ensure that the query result is consistent with the configuration.
Step 6 Optional: Configure service timeslots of the logical port of the TN12LQMS board at station
A. For details, see 12.5 Configuring Service Timeslots.
Step 7 Configure the service to be added or dropped at station B.
1. Configure a GE service from the ClientLP port of the LQMS board to the RX/TX port.
For details, see Creating Cross-Connections.
The following table lists the values of the parameters for station B.

NOTE
For details on how to select a port for electrical cross-connection services, see 2.4.2 Service
Signal Flow.
Step 8 Click Query. Ensure that the query result is consistent with the configuration.
Step 9 Optional: Configure service timeslots of the logical port of the TN12LQMS board at station
B. For details on how to configure service timeslots, see 12.5 Configuring Service
Timeslots.

Verifying Configurations
Check whether service configurations are correct. If the end-to-end services on the client side
are correctly configured, the client trails of GE levels can be searched out. For details, see
Searching for Trails.
