Procedure 3-3: Housekeeping support

When to use

The NE will be able to receive and process three separate customer-defined inputs for

fault conditions arising externally to the NE. The fault conditions will be processed and

reported as for internally detected fault conditions.

It will be possible to disable the reporting from any input if not used. The inputs will be

capable of interfacing to a dry relay contact, i.e. an input will comprise two wire interface

capable of detecting an open or closed circuit condition between the two connections.

Each user alarm input shall be separately configurable to accept either a closed circuit or

open circuit state as the active alarm condition. The inputs from the dry contacts are

normally used for site specific alarms such as open door, high temperature, high water

level, etc. The polarity of an external input control determines the relationship between

the declaration of an environmental condition and the physical signal. The NE shall drive

1 separate output station controls for customer defined site specific facilities external to

the NE, such as air conditioning, generators, etc. Operating an external control means that

a relay is activated to control some external device. Releasing an external control means

deactivating the relay. The polarity of an external output control determines the

relationship between the control state (CONTSTATE) value and the physical signal.

Provisioning of housekeeping alarms and controls shall be persistent Customer access to

the Housekeeping (HKP) connections shall be via 25 pin D-Sub connector on the NE user

access panel.

Procedure 4-1: Traffic descriptor

When to use

This procedure is to be used as a guideline for a set of instructions to create, configure,

activate and delete a traffic descriptor.

A Traffic descriptor is the set of Committed Information Rate (CIR), Committed Burst

Size (CBS), Peak Information Rate (PIR), and Peak Burst Size (PBS) parameters used by

the System for bandwidth checks related to port bit rate or Virtual Transport bit rate on

which tunnels and pseudowires are defined. Main use is metering and policing operations.

Service type Specifies the type of service the traffic. Identifies the used output queue.

Queue is specified by specifying the service type.

CIR [Kb/sec] Committed Information Rate - This is the maximum rate (kb/sec) with

high priority guaranteed for the Tunnel/Pseudowire packets delivery.

PIR [Kb/sec] Peak Information Rate - This is the maximum peak rate allowed (kb/sec)

for the Tunnel/Pseudowire.

CBS [KBytes] Committed Burst Size - This is the maximum burst size (byte) with high

priority guaranteed for the Tunnel/Pseudowire packets deliver.

PBS [KBytess] Peak Burst Size - This is the maximum burst rate allowed (byte) for the

Tunnel/Pseudowire.

2 The Traffic Descriptor tab displays the table that contains different traffic descriptor

entries.

Table 4-2 Service type parameters


Service type Indicates the Traffic codification, according to international standard

conversion:

BestEffortService - serves Low priority traffic, which relies on transport

layer protocol to recover from loss and tolerates large delay; e.g. E-mail

and file transfer applications. Best Effort denotes BW (PIR > CIR = 0 in

100kbps increments), which may or may not be available per network

operator’s reservation for Best Effort policy. It may therefore be

unavailable under congestion conditions.

BackGroundService

RegulatedService - serves Medium priority traffic, which relies on

transport layer protocol to recover from occasional loss and requires

moderate delay; e.g. client–server applications. Regulated service

denotes BW (PIR > CIR >0 in 100Kbps increments), which may be

overbooked per network operator’s overbooking policy. The portion of

bandwidth between CIR and PIR (EIR) may therefore be partially

available under congestion conditions.

Grouped

RegulatedService1

RegulatedService3

RegulatedService4

GuaranteedService - serves High priority traffic for mission critical

applications that require loss–less delivery and minimal delay.

Guaranteed SLA denotes BW (CIR = PIR > 0 in 100Kbps increments),

that is always available regardless of any congestion conditions. Traffic

delivered using Guaranteed BW, is policed to the CIR value with a burst

window equal to the CBS.

GuaranteedService2

CIR [Kb/sec] This is the normal medium rate (expressed in kb/sec) of the data flow

(Effective Bandwidth) and it ranges from 0 to PIR value. It can be set

only if the RegulatedService has been selected; in BestEffortService

case it is set to 0 by the system; in GuaranteedService case it is set equal

to PIR value.

PIR [Kb/sec] This is the maximum rate (expressed in kb/sec) up to which the source

can transmit for a short time period and it ranges from 3 to

physical-linerate of the relative Port.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

4-4 1646 SMC


Issue 1 July 2011

Table 4-2 Service type parameters (continued)


CBS [Kbytes] This is the committed number of bytes for which the source may

transmit the PIR; it ranges from 0 to 64 MB. It can be set only if the

RegulatedService traffic has been selected; in BestEffortService case it

is set to 0 by the system; in GuaranteedService case it is set equal to PBS

value. A value greater than MTU (e.g. 2000) is advisable.

PBS [Kbytes] This is the number of bytes for which are allowed to be sent above PIR

or CIR before the colour (drop eligibility) of the packet changes; it

ranges from 1 to 64 MB (this max value cannot be greater than the

minimum value of 64 MB or 256xCBS. I.e.: if CBS=2000, then

PBS<512 kB). A value greater than MTU (e.g. 2000) is advisable.

This features allows you to perform the following functions:

• to report the “Used” amount of entries and the “Available” amount of entries

(associated to each dynamic NE resource) to a Management operator, informing the

Management Operator when available resources are exhausted

• to support Resource management feature to track Resources limitations (“on per-NE

basis”) through dedicated Resource Management pools (see Figure 4-2, “Resource

Management Pools” (p. 4-6) ). Each Resource Management Pool allows the

monitoring of a resource, relying on the following retrieved information (for each

resource):

– used entries

– available entries

• to keep aligned the values inside Management Pools with Packet processor CAM

entry box.

Ethernet Type (0x) Allows to digit an hexadecimal value for the provider protocol-type (PT)

that is inserted into the 2-bytes field of the Stacked-VLAN shim header;

the value identifies the network provider and has to be 2-bytes long in

hexadecimal notation; the third non-included byte is forced by default to

“0x”. The PT is used to recognize the type of afferent VLAN frames, i.e.

if they are “S-Vlan-tagged” or others; by default, an hex value of 88A8

is interpreted as SVlan tagged. Frames with PT value different than this

is treated as non S-Vlan-tagged. An hex value of 8100 is interpreted as

Q-Vlan tagged. Other values of PT are interpreted as generic

Stacked-Vlan frames, used to interwork among different network

providers

Procedure 5-3: Administer system timing BITS

When to use

Use this procedure to retrieve, edit, remove, and restore Building Integrated Timing

Source (BITS) timing and to switch system clock synchronization from one reference to

the other.

General

Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) ports provides external synchronization from a

network timing source to the system. Under normal conditions, all terminating and

outgoing STMn’s have identical average frequency derived from the network timing

source.

The Network Element (NE) utilizes external Building Integrated Timing Supply (BITS)

timing to synchronize the system. BITS timing signal enters the system either directly via

the backplane (Rear Access Shelf) or via dedicated front plane integral, a panel just below

the fan.

The following clock modes are supported:

• Locked mode (normal mode) - Steady state, the SETG generated clock signal is

controlled by the selected external timing reference determined by the T0 selection

process

• Holdover mode - Steady state. The operating condition of a clock that has lost its

references and is using data previously acquired (when it was operating in the normal

mode) to control its output signal.

• Free-running mode - Temporary operating mode. The operating condition when the

output signal is totally internally controlled with no influence of a present or previous

reference.

Procedure 8-12: Administer NTP

When to use

This procedure provides the instructions to retrieve the Network Time Protocol (NTP)

server IP address, provision NTP servers, and delete NTP servers. It also provides

instructions to enable and disable the NTP synchronization.

NTP servers are used for time-of-day synchronization when the NTP protocol is enabled.

If no NTP server is entered and the NTP protocol is enabled, the time-of-day clock

synchronizes with the last known internal clock frequency.

When NTP is enabled, the NE internal time-of-day clock uses the calculated Coordinated

Universal Time (UTC) from the selected NTP server, which is modified by the

user-provisioned offset. All messages, event reports, logs, and events that carry time

stamps use the following time of day: NTP UTC time + provisioned offset.

Procedure 8-20: LAG management

When to use

The Link Aggregation function is an extension of the MAC layer which allows grouping

of a set of physical Ethernet interfaces into one logical interface with greater capacity and

reliability. The Link Aggregation Group (LAG) is valid only as a link between two

systems (called the Partners). Grouping of more interfaces linking one system with two or

more Partners is not allowed.

Permitted port rates to be aggregated are 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps (10 Mbps and 100 Mbps

are for future release). The max number of ports (LAG-size) to be aggregated is 16; (LAG

stands for Link Aggregation Group). Links may be anytime added or removed to/from the

bundle. Ports to be aggregated can be either located on the same board and also on

different boards.

Its management in the network is based upon the communication, between the aggregate

partner pieces of equipment, of LACP messages (Link Aggregation Control Protocol).

The LACP packets transport information about set-up, aggregation capability, links

failures, automatic reconfiguration after failure, etc.

The benefits of Link Aggregation feature are:

• Bandwidth limitation overcoming

• Load balancing (the traffic is distributed over the constituting links)

• Reliability increasing (in case that a link of the aggregate fails, its traffic is

automatically distributed over the other links of the aggregate).

The conditions for Link Aggregation option are the following:

• All involved ports must work at the same rate.

• All involved ports must have the same configurations, regarding AutoNegotiation and

Flow Control.

• All aggregated links must be point-to-point (multicast is not allowed).

• All involved interfaces must work in full-duplex modality.

• All involved ports must be Local (remote ports are not allowed).

• Actor and Partner ports (local and far sides) must be of the same type.
