1.1.2 Creating an NE
An NE represents a subrack of a WDM device. There are two methods for creating NEs:
Create a single NE and Create NEs in batches. The results of the two methods are the
same. You are advised to use both methods during the hands-on exercise.

1) Creating a Single NE

Right-click on the blank space of the Main Topology and choose New > NE from
the shortcut menu. The Create NE dialog box is displayed.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 11

Select required NE type ”OptiXtrans E6616” from tree structure at left top. Input
NE ID, Extended ID, Name, and Remarks based on the information planned in
Table 1-1. To create a gateway NE, perform step 3. To create a non-gateway NE,
perform steps 4 and 5. Before creating a non-gateway NE, you need to create a
gateway NE.

Manually create a GNE. Select Gateway from the Gateway Type drop-down list
and set IP Address. As shown in the following figure, the ID is 223 and the
extended ID is 184. Change the IP address to be the same as that on the NE.
Otherwise, the gateway NE cannot communicate with the NCE. The default NE
user name is “root” and the password is “Changeme_123”.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 12

Manually create a non-gateway NE. Set Gateway Type to Non-gateway and select
the gateway of this NE. Set NE User and Password.

Click OK. The cursor displayed as ”+”. Click in the Main Topology. Click on the
blank space of the physical view and the NE is created.

Create other NEs in the same way.

2) Creating NEs in batches

When the NCE communicates properly with a GNE, you can search for all NEs that
communicate with the GNE by using the IP address of the GNE or the network segment
to which the IP address is associated. Then, you can create NEs in batches. This method is
better than manual creation. Therefore, the method of creating NEs in batches is
recommended.

Choose Topology > Discovery > NE from the main menu. The NE Search window is
displayed.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 13

Click the Transport NE Search tab. Select Search for NE from the Search Mode
drop-down list. If the network segment of the NE to be searched cannot be
correctly specified, set Search Mode to IP Auto Discovery so that the IP address of
the gateway NE can be obtained and all NEs under the gateway NE can be
searched out. If the NEs to be searched are connected to the NCE through
different routers, you cannot search for the NEs by using IP Auto Discovery.
Instead, you can search for the NEs by using Search for NE.

In the Search Domain dialog box, click Add. The Search Domain Input dialog box
is displayed. Set Address Type to IP Address Range of GNE, set Search Address,
User Name, and Password, and click OK.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 14

Click Next. The Searched NEs area is displayed, and Operation Results is
“Discovery…”.

Wait until the search is complete. The NEs that are found are displayed in
“Results”. Select the NEs to be created.

Click Create. The Create NE progress bar is displayed, indicating that the NE is
automatically created.

1.1.3 Configuring NE Data


NCE supports three methods for configuring NE data: manually configuring NE data,
copying NE data, and uploading NE data one by one or in batches.
There are multiple NEs on the network. Therefore, you can use multiple configuration
methods to configure NE data. The recommended configuration methods are as follows:

Table 1-2 Recommended Configuration

Site NE Recommended Configuration

184-223
NE A Initialize and Manually configure NE data
184-226

Click Upload. The Confirm dialog box is displayed. Click OK.

The upload progress bar is displayed. Wait until the upload is complete.

1.1.4 Creating an Optical NE


On NCE, if a site uses more than one WDM device, all the devices at the same site can be
grouped into the same optical NE for management. After creating an optical NE, you
need to add each subrack NE to the corresponding optical NE for management. This is
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 20

the process of resource division. NCE defines four optical NE types: WDM_OTM,
WDM_OLA, WDM_OADM, and WDM_OEQ.
The following table lists the planning of optical NE information at each site.

Table 1-3 Optical NE planning table

1.2 Configuring Optical-Layer Services


1.2.1 About this Experiment
After configuring NEs and networks, you need to configure wavelength grooming. An
OCh trail that traverses an ROADM needs to be manually created. If no ROADM is
configured on the service trail, you only need to search for WDM trails. The OCh trail will
be automatically generated on NCE. This chapter describes how to search for OCh trails
at an FOADM site and how to configure optical cross-connections at an ROADM site.

1.2.1.1 Objective
⚫ Understand the meaning of the path.
⚫ Understand the characteristics of FOADM and ROADM.
⚫ Grasped how to search for and configure OChs.

1.2.3 Configure OCh Station by Station


In the station by station configuration mode, you need to configure edge ports first.
An edge port refers to a port that has fiber connections between an NE and other NEs.
To set the edge point of an NE is to set the optical port as the connection point between
the local NE and other NEs. You need to configure the edge port only when the OTU/LU
board and the multiplexer/demultiplexer board are not on the same set of equipment.
The following uses 80/192.1THz (NE A-NE C-NEB) as an example to demonstrate the
operation procedure.

After the creation is complete, search and connect the single-NE optical cross-
connections into complete OCh services by referring to section "1.2.2 Searching for
OCh".

1.2.4 Configure OCh by Trail


The trail-based OCh configuration method allows you to configure optical-layer services
in an E2E manner by searching for trails and creating trails at each layer. In addition, the
trail signal flow diagram is provided, which intuitively displays the signal flow direction of
trails, improves O&M efficiency, and reduces O&M costs.

1.3.2 Commissioning OSC


The received optical power of OSC boards at each site must be commissioned according
to the OSC signal flow. Based on the requirements for the received and transmit optical
power and insertion loss of the board, check whether the attenuation of the line or board
is abnormal.
The following table lists the received and transmit optical specifications of the optical
module on the monitoring board.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 52

Table 1-8 OSC Board Commissioning Specifications


OSC
Launch optical power range Receive optical power range

SC1
TM port: –4 dBm to 0 dBm RM port: –45 dBm to –8 dBm

ST2 RM port: -34 dBm to -10 dBm (80 km)


TM port: –4 dBm to 1 dBm (80 km)
AST2 RM port: –42 dBm to –10 dBm (150
TM port: 0.5 dBm to 5 dBm (150 km)
AST4 km)

The following uses the commissioning of the supervisory channel between NE A and NE
B as an example.

Check whether the optical fibers of the optical supervisory channel board are
correctly connected. Check whether the fiber connections are the same as those in
the signal flow diagrams shown in Figure 1-9 and Figure 1-10. Use an optical
power meter to query the optical power. Skip step 4. If you use the NMS to query
the optical power, skip steps 2 and 3.

Set the wavelength range of the optical power meter to 1510 nm and check
whether the transmit optical power of the TMO port on the optical supervisory
channel board meets the requirements (Refer to Table 1- 8 for the Launch optical
power range). If the transmit optical power does not meet the requirement,
replace the board. (Checking launch power)

Set the wavelength range of the optical power meter to 1510 nm and check
whether the actual receive optical power of the RM port on the optical supervisory
channel meets the requirements.(Refer to Table 1- 8 for the Receive optical power
range). You can adjust the actual receive optical power by adding, deleting, or
replacing the fixed optical attenuator. (Check receive power.)

Alternatively, open the NE Explorer on NCE, select the AST2 board in the
navigation tree, choose Configuration > Optical Power Management from the
Function Tree, and click Query to query the received and transmit optical power of
the port.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 53

The received optical power must meet the commissioning requirements listed in
Table 1-8. If the receive optical power is too high, add a fixed attenuator to the
RM port. If the receive optical power is too low, check whether the attenuation of
the inter-site line is normal. If the attenuation is abnormal, handle the fault on
site.

1.3.3 Commissioning Optical Power


Single-site commissioning and system commissioning are two common optical power
commissioning modes on live networks.
When a large number of EVOAs and spectrum analyzer boards are configured on the live
network, remote commissioning is convenient. However, if FOAs are required or
hardware is replaced during the commissioning, only onsite commissioning is required.
This section uses the services from NE A to NE B to NE C as an example to describe how
to commission optical power in site visits and remote cooperation modes.
Commission the optical power of each station and each board according to the signal
flow sequence. Based on the optical power, gain, and insertion loss of the board, che ck
whether the attenuation of the line or board is abnormal.
The optical power adjustment is performed based on the optical power commissioning
requirements of tributary boards, line boards, and optical amplifier boards.
Optical power commissioning sequence:
In a WDM system, the stations between two end stations (OTMs) are generally
considered as a network segment. Each network segment contains two signal flows in
the corresponding transmit and receive directions.
In each network segment, the WDM system commissions the optical power site by site
according to the signal flow direction.
Commission the optical power in the transmit direction of an OTM terminal site, and
commission the optical power of each downstream station along the signal direction.
Finally, commission the optical power in the receive direction of the signal flow to the
destination OTM station.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 54

Then, commission the optical power in the opposite direction of the signal flow.

Take the 80/192.1 THz service from NE A to NE B as an example. Based on the signal
flow diagrams shown in Figure 1-9, Figure 1-10, and Figure 1-11, you can analyze the
signal flow diagram of the service.
During the commissioning, pay attention to the following commissioning specifications of
different boards:

Take the 80/192.1TH service from NE A to NE B as an example. Adjust the optical power in the
direction from NE A to NE B.

Open the NE Explorer of NE A. In the navigation tree, select the UNQ2 board in
slot 4 of subrack 0 and choose Configuration > WDM Interface from the Function
Tree.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 57

Ensure that Channel Use Status is Used, Optical Port Loopback is No Loop, and
Laser Status is On for the IN2/OUT2 port.

According to the signal flow diagram shown in Figure 1-9, adjust the optical
power of each wavelength on the EX40 board in slot 2 of subrack 2 to ensure that
the optical power of each wavelength is the same (adjust the flatness). Based on
the information in Tables 1-5, the IN7 port on the OPM8 board in slot 6 of
subrack 2 of NE A is connected to the MOND port on the EX40 board.

In the NE Explorer of NE A, select the OPM8 board in slot 6 of subrack 2 from the
navigation tree. Choose Configuration > Laser Spectrum Analysis from the
Function Tree.

Select 7(IN7) from the Port No. drop-down list on the right, set Compensation
Power to 10, and click Refresh.

Check whether the optical power is flat based on the optical power in the
spectrum data. If the optical power is too high, add a fixed attenuator to the port
connected to the EX40 board. (In this example, the EX40 board does not support
EVOAs. Therefore, a fixed refresh is required. If the M40V or ROADM board is
configured, you can commission the EVOA of each channel on the board to adjust
the flatness.)
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 58

According to the signal flow diagram shown in Figure 1-9, adjust the IN_2 input
optical power and OUT_2 output optical power of the DAP board in slot 5 of
subrack 2.

In the NE Explorer of NE A, right-click the DAP in slot 05 of subrack 2 in the


navigation tree and choose Board Manufacturer Information from the shortcut
menu to query the type of the OA subboard.

In the dialog box that is displayed, the type of the OA subboard used between
IN_2 and OUT_2 is TN15OAC106.

Query the input optical power, output optical power, and gain specifications of the
TN15OAC106 board in Table 1-10.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 59

According to the information in Table 1-5, port 4 of the OPM8 board in slot 6 of
subrack 2 on NE A is connected to the MON_2 port of the DAP board. Therefore,
you can query the signal quality of the output optical signals at the OUT_2 port of
the DAP board.

In the NE Explorer of NE A, select the OPM8 board in slot 6 of subrack 2 from the
navigation tree. Choose Configuration > Laser Spectrum Analysis from the
Function Tree.

Select 4(IN4) from the Port No. drop-down list on the right, set Compensation
Power to 20, and click Refresh.

Check whether the optical power meets the nominal output optical power based
on the optical power in the spectrum data. If the optical power is too high or too
low, go to step 15. Otherwise, go to step 20.

In the NE Explorer of NE A, select the DAP in slot 5 of subrack 2 from the


navigation tree. Choose Configuration > WDM Interface from the Function Tree.

On the Basic Attributes tab page, check whether the gain value of the OUT_2 port
is the same as the nominal gain value of the OAC16 port listed in Table 1-10. If
yes, go to Step 17. If no, increase or decrease the nominal gain value of the
OUT_2 port, after the modification, click Apply. Ensure that the value of Gain is
the same as the nominal gain of the OAC16 in Table 1-10.

Repeat steps 12 to 13 to view the optical power in the Spectrum Data area and
calculate the difference between the optical power and the nominal single-
wavelength output optical power. (Difference = Query optical power – Nominal
single-wavelength output optical power)

Repeat step 15 to modify the Optical Interface Attenuation Ratio of the


1(subrack)-5-B1DAP-6(VI_2)-1 board in the optical channel subrack based on the
calculated Difference. The modified value is the current value plus the Difference.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 60

After the modification, repeat steps 12 to 13 to check whether the optical power
meets the requirement (the difference between the current optical power and the
nominal optical power does not exceed 1 dB). If the optical power meets the
requirement, go to step 20. If the optical power does not meet the requirement,
go to step 18 to adjust the optical port attenuation until the optical power meets
the requirement.

Repeat steps 3 to 19 to adjust the input optical power and output optical power
and gain of IN_1 on the DAP board in slot 5 of subrack 0 on NE B.

Open the NE Explorer of NE A. Select the UNQ2 board in slot 4 of subrack 0 from
the navigation tree. Choose Configuration > Optical Power Management from the
Function Tree to view the received optical power of the IN1 port.
HCIP-Transmission V2.5 Lab Guide Page 61

If the receive optical power is too high, add a fixed attenuator to the IN1 port to
adjust the received optical power to the value listed in Table 1-9. If yes, replace
the FOA or check the pigtail.

Repeat the preceding steps to adjust the reverse signal flow.

The IP addresses of Ethernet ports on the same NE must be on different network


segments.
The IP addresses of the ports at both ends of a link must be on the same network
segment.
PWs that carry Ethernet services are carried by tunnels. Therefore, you need to plan
tunnels during service planning. Therefore, the planning of E-Line services carried by PWs
includes the following:
• Table 2-10 and Table 2-11 describe the planning of tunnels that carry PWs.
• Table 2-12 lists the MPLS tunnel OAM planning.
• Table 2-13describes the PW planning.
• Table 2-14 provides the planning information about the UNI-NNI E-Line services carried by
PWs.

Networking diagram for configuring E-LAN services carried by PWs

2.8.1.3 Networking Design


On the network shown in Figure 1-8, the service requirements of Customer Edges (CEs)
are as follows:
CE1, CE2, and CE3 are connected to NE A, NE B, and NE C respectively through 5-EX10-1.
There are three types of services between CE networks. The services are video services
(VLAN 100) and data services (VLAN 200) in descending order.
The video service has a fixed bandwidth, that is, CIR = PIR = 10 Mbit/s.
The data service has a fixed bandwidth, that is, CIR = PIR = 40 Mbit/s.
CIR = 0 Mbit/s, PIR = 100 Mbit/s.
Services are carried by PWs on the network. Therefore, you need to plan parameters
related to PWs and MPLS tunnels.
When configuring E-LAN services carried by PWs, you need to plan the following data:
Table 2-17 describes the planning of tunnels that carry PWs.
Table 2-28 provides the planning information about E-LAN services carried by PWs.
Table 2-29 lists the UNI planning of each NE.
Table 2-30 lists the PW planning at the NNI of each NE.
Table 2-31 describes the QoS planning for each NE.
Note:
You can set a split horizon group for an E-LAN service. One E-LAN service can have only

Configure MPLS-TP OAM.

Switches the PW OAM standard. PW APS supports MPLS-TP OAM. Therefore, you need to
switch the OAM mode to Y.1731 before configuring PW APS.

Choose Service > PWE3 Service > Manage PWE3 Service from the main menu.

In the dialog box that is displayed, set filter criteria (for example, set Protection
Type to PW APS) and click Filter to query all PWE3 services that meet the filter
criteria.

Select the PWE3 service to be switched.

Right-click and choose PW OAM > Switch to Y.1731 Mode from the shortcut
menu.

Click Close.

3.9.3 Verification
In the NE Explorer, select an NE and choose Configuration > Packet
Configuration > APS Protection Management from the Function Tree.

Click the PW APS Management tab.

Select the protection group to be verified, click Clear in the Function column, and
then click Query Switching Status in the Function column to check whether the
command is successfully issued.

3.10 ERPS protection


3.10.1 About this Experiment
Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) is an Ethernet ring protection protocol based
on the Automatic Protection Switching (APS) protocol and protection switching
mechanism. ERPS protects the Ethernet LAN services on the Ethernet ring topology at
Layer 2.

3.10.1.1 Objective
⚫ Learn how to use the NMS to create NEs and optical NEs.
⚫ Master how to configure NE data.

3.10.1.2 Experiment Networking

Networking diagram

3.10.1.3 Experiment Planning


A ring network consists of NE A, NE B, and NEC. ERPS is used to protect Ethernet services
on the ring network.
After ERPS is deployed on a ring network, the RPL owner node (NE A) blocks the east
RPL port and transmits all services through the west port. When a link or an NE on the
ring is faulty, NE A unblocks the east RPL port so that services with interrupted routes
can be transmitted through the east RPL port.
