5 Configuring WDM Services for Tributary Boards and

Line Boards
This section describes how to configure GE services by using the TQM and NQ2 boards.
2.5.1 Configuration Networking Diagram
This section describes how to configure a GE service on a ring network.
Service Requirement
See Figure 2-18. ONEs A, B, C, and D form a ring network. All the ONEs function as
OADM stations.
User1 and User2 communicate with each other. One bidirectional GE service is available
between station A and station B. At station A, the TN12TQM board accesses one GE service
and multiplexes the GE service into one channel of ODU1 electrical signals, that is, one
ODU1 service. Then, the ODU1 service is sent to the TN52NQ2 board and is multiplexed
with other services into one OTU2 service. At station B, the TN12TQM board accesses one
GE service and multiplexes the GE service into one channel of ODU1 electrical signals, that
is, one ODU1 service. Then, the ODU1 service is sent to the TN52NQ2 board and is
multiplexed with other services into one OTU2 service.

Board Configuration Information

In this example, a 12TQM board and a 52NQ2 board must be configured at station A and
station B.

2.5.2 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 2-19 shows the service signal flow between station A and station B.

NOTE
ClientLP and ODU1LP are logical ports. Cross-connections between client-side RX/TX ports and
ClientLP ports need to be configured. ODU1 cross-connections between the ClientLP ports of the TQM
board and the ODU1LP ports of the NQ2 board need to be configured. There are connections between
the ODU1LP ports of the NQ2 board and WDM-side IN/OUT ports, and therefore cross-connections do
not need to be configured.

2.5.3 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 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)
Procedure on the U2000/Web LCT
Step 1 Set Service Mode of the client-side ports on the TN12TQM 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 TN12TQM board can access services other than OTN
services.
Step 2 Set Service Mode of the client-side ports on the TN52NQ2 boards at stations A and B to
ODU1. For details, see Configuring the Service Mode.
NOTE
After Service Mode is set to ODU1, the TN52NQ2 board can access ODU1 services.
Step 3 Set Service Type of the client-side ports on the TN12TQM boards at stations A and B to GE.
For details, see Configuring the Service Type.
Step 4 Configure the internal cross-connections for the wavelengths that are added or dropped from
the TN12TQM board at station A.
1. Configure a GE service from the RX/TX port of the TN12TQM 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 2.5.2 Service
Signal Flow.

Step 5 Click Query. Ensure that the query result is consistent with the configuration.
Step 6 Configure ODU1 services between the TN52NQ2 board and the TN12TQM board at station
A.
1. Configure an ODU1 service from the ClientLP port of the TN12TQM board to the
ODU1LP port of the TN52NQ2 board. 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 2.5.2 Service
Signal Flow.
Step 7 Click Query. Ensure that the query result is consistent with the configuration.
Step 8 Optional: Configure service timeslots of the logical port of the TN12TQM board at station A.
For details on how to configure service timeslots, see 12.5 Configuring Service Timeslots.

Step 9 Configure the internal cross-connections for the wavelengths that are added or dropped from
the TN12TQM board at station B.
1. Configure a GE service from the RX/TX port of the TN12TQM board to the ClientLP
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 2.5.2 Service Signal
Flow.
Step 10 Click Query. Ensure that the query result is consistent with the configuration.
Step 11 Configure ODU1 cross-connections between the TN52NQ2 board and the TN12TQM board
at station B.
1. Configure an ODU1 service from the ClientLP port of the TN12TQM board to the
ODU1LP port of the TN52NQ2 board. For details, see Creating Cross-Connections.
The following table lists the values of the parameters for station B.

For details on how to select a port for electrical cross-connection services, see 2.5.2 Service
Signal Flow.
Step 12 Click Query. Ensure that the query result is consistent with the configuration.
Step 13 Optional: Configure service timeslots of the logical port of the TN12TQM board at NE B.
For details, 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 WDM Trails.
