    The network topology, the geometrical layout of SDH network nodes and transmission

    lines, reflects the physical connection of the network. The network topology is important

    in the sense that it determines the performance, reliability and cost-effectiveness of an SDH

    network.

    The chain network is simple and economical at the initial application stage of SDH

    equipment. For a chain network, its more difficult and more expensive to protect the

    traffic, compared with a ring network. The chain network is used in cases where the traffic

    is unimportant or where the traffic load is small so that we dont have to care about the

    traffic protection.

    In the star network, the hub node selects routes and passes through the traffic signals for

    all the other nodes. As a result, the hub node is able to manage the bandwidth resources

    thoroughly and flexibly. On the other hand, there is the possibility of a potential bottleneck

    of bandwidth resources. Besides, the equipment failure of the hub node may result in the

    breakdown of the entire network.

    A tree structure can be considered as the combination of chain and star structures. It is

    suitable for broadcast service. However, due to the bottleneck problem and the optical

    power budget limit, it is not suitable for bidirectional traffic.

    The ring network is the most widely used network for SDH transmission networks.

    In such a structure, any traffic between two adjacent nodes can be directly add/drop

    between them. For traffic between two non-adjacent nodes, we have to configure the

    add/drop traffic at the source node and the sink node. And the pass-through traffic in

    between those two nodes must be created as well.

    The ring network is highly survivable. The most obvious advantage of a ring network is its

    high survivability that is essential to modern optical networks with large capacity. Thus, the

    ring network enjoys very broad applications in SDH networks.

    Mesh networks are such communications networks in which many nodes are

    interconnected with each other via direct routes. In such topological structure, if direct

    routes are used in the interconnection of all the nodes, this structure is considered as an

    ideal mesh topology. In a non-ideal mesh topological structure, the service connection

    between nodes that are not connected directly is established through route selection and

    transiting via other nodes.

    In a mesh network, no bottle neck problem exists. Since more than one route can be

    selected between any nodes, when any equipment fails, services can still be transmitted

    smoothly through other routes. Thus, the reliability of service transmission is increased.

    However, such networks are more complicated, costly and difficult to manage. Mesh

    networks are very suitable for those regions with large traffic.

    In selecting a topological structure, many factors should be considered. For example, the

    network should be highly survivable, easy to configure, suitable to add new services, and

    simple to mange. In a practical communications network, different layers adopt different

    topological structures.

    The concept of sub-network is introduced in Huawei OptiX series equipment and network

    management systems in order to facilitate network topology management, security

    management, tributary interface expansion, and traffic management.

    In practical applications, it simplifies the topology structure of complicated networks and

    thus enables hierarchical management.

    Modern society is getting more and more dependent on communications with the

    development of science and technologies, and so higher requirements to network security

    are being brought forward. Thus the concept of survivable network comes into being. The

    following will deal with the concepts of survivable network.

    Please pay attention to that the network can only restore services here. It cannot repair the

    failure in the network, which cannot do without human intervention.

    So there should have protection channels to carry over the services in the working

    channels. The first requirement for survivability of network is there should have protection

    routes or standby routes.

    A survivability also need something else. Nodes in the network must have the intelligence

    to check out the failure occurred and inform corresponding units of doing relative

    protection operation. And the nodes also should have powerful cross-connect capability to

    implement the protection operation.

    For the survivable network, the protection object can be the physical or electronic.

    Unidirectional traffic and bidirectional traffic are named regarding the traffic flow

    directions in the ring. A unidirectional ring means that traffic travel in just one direction,

    e.g. clockwise or counter-clockwise. While in a bidirectional ring, traffic signals go in two

    directions, one opposite to another.

    Protection modes can be divided into two kinds: 1+1 and 1:N. In 1+1 protection mode,

    every working system is protected by a dedicated protection system. But in 1:N protection

    mode, N systems share one protection system; and when the system is in normal operation,

    the protection system can also transmit extra traffic. Thus a higher efficiency can be

    obtained than that of 1+1 system.

    For multiplex section protection ring, traffic protection is based on multiplex section.

    Switching or not is determined by signal qualities of the multiplex section between each

    span of nodes.

    The network has two channels (two pairs of fibers): working (active) channel and

    protection (standby) channel.

    When the network is normal (i.e. no failure on working channel), working channel is used

    to transport the traffics.

    When the working channel is failed, use the protection channel.

    Linear Multiplex Section (MS) protection is one of multiplex section protections. Linear

    multiplex section protection switching can be a dedicated or shared protection mechanism.

    It protects the multiplex section layer, and applies to point-to-point physical networks. One

    protection multiplex section can be used to protect the normal traffic from a number (N) of

    working multiplex sections. It cannot protect against node failures. It can operate in a

    unidirectional or bidirectional manner, and it can carry extra traffic on the protection

    multiplex section in bidirectional operation.

    Out of 1+1 linear multiplex section protections, some modes require APS protocol during

    the switching process, some dont require. For 1 1 unidirectional switching, the signal

    selection is based on the local conditions and requests. Therefore each end operates

    independently of the other end, and bytes K1 and K2 are not needed to coordinate switch

    action.

    When the network has no failure, N working channels can transmit the normal traffic while

    the protection channel transmits extra (unimportant) traffic or it transmits no traffic.

    Suppose the fiber from NE A to NE B of the working channel 1 is broken. NE B detects

    R_LOS alarm and sends a request to NE A to switch the services on the failed channel to

    the protection channel.

    Upon receiving the request, NE A bridges the service on the failed channel to the

    protection channel.

    NE B get the information from NE A and switch to select the service from the protection

    channel.

    NE A switches to select the service from the protection channel. This step completes the

    switching of the service on the faulty channel to the protection channel for both directions.

    When the working channel 1 repaired, the _RLOS alarm disappears. NE B sets the K1 byte

    to Wait-To-Restore (WTR) state. If WTR state lasts for a special time (10 minutes by

    default), it switches to select the signal from the working channel and sends No Request

    signal to the NE A using K1 byte.

    NE A releases the bridge and replies with the same indication on K1 byte. The selector at

    the NE A is also released.

    Receiving this K1 byte causes the NE B to release the bridge. This step completes the

    protection recovery.

    protection sub-net when using the NMS T2000.

    The protection switching principle of two-fiber bidirectional path protection ring is

    basically the same as that of unidirectional path protection ring, except that in two-fiber

    bidirectional path protection ring, the route of receiving signals is consistent with that of

    sending signals

    Two-fiber unidirectional MS dedicated protection ring is composed of two fibers. Working

    channels and protection channels are carried over different optical fibers. Of course, fiber

    P1 can be used to carry extra traffic when not used for protection. The two-fiber

    unidirectional Multiplex Section dedicated protection ring is seldom used in actual

    applications since it has no advantages over either the two-fiber unidirectional path

    protection ring or two-fiber bidirectional multiplex section shared protection.

    On each fiber, half the channels are defined as working channels and half are defined as

    protection channels. The normal traffic carried on working channels in one fiber are

    protected by the protection channels in another fiber traveling in the opposite direction

    around the ring. This permits the bidirectional transport of normal traffic. Only one set of

    overhead channels is used on each fiber.

    When a node determines that a switch is required, it sources the appropriate bridge

    request in the K-bytes in both directions, i.e. the short path and long path.

    The destination node is the node that is adjacent to the source node across the failed span.

    When a node that is not the destination nodes receives a higher priority bridge request, it

    enters the appropriate pass-through state. In this way, the switching nodes can maintain

    direct K-byte communication on the long path. Note that in the case of a bidirectional

    failure such as a cable cut, the destination node would have detected the failure itself and

    sourced a bridge request in the opposite direction around the ring.

    When the destination node receives the bridge request, it performs the bridge and bridges

    the channels that were entering the failed span onto the protection channels in the

    opposite direction. In addition, for signal fail-ring switches, the node also performs the

    switch to protection channels.

    APS requests are also initiated based on multiplex section and equipment performance

    criteria detected by the NE. All the working and protection channels are monitored

    regardless of the failure or degradation conditions (i.e. after a switch has been completed,

    all appropriate performance monitoring is continued). The NE initiates the following bridge

    requests automatically: Signal Failure (SF), Signal Degrade (SD), Reverse Request (RR), and

    Wait to Restore (WTR). The bridge requests are transmitted from NE to NE (not from NMS

    to NE).

    Four-fiber MS shared protection rings require four fibers for each span of the ring.

    Working and protection channels are carried over different fibers: two multiplex sections

    transmitting in opposite directions carry the working channels while two multiplex sections,

    also transmitting in opposite directions, carry the protection channels. This permits the

    bidirectional transport of normal traffic. The multiplex section overhead is dedicated to

    either working or protection channels since working and protection channels are not

    transported over the same fibers.

    APS requests are also initiated based on multiplex section and equipment performance

    criteria detected by the NE. All the working and protection channels are monitored

    regardless of the failure or degradation conditions (i.e. after a switch has been completed,

    all appropriate performance monitoring is continued). The NE initiates the following bridge

    requests automatically: Signal Failure (SF), Signal Degrade (SD), Reverse Request (RR), and

    Wait to Restore (WTR). The bridge requests are transmitted from NE to NE (not from NMS

    to NE).

    For four-fiber bidirectional multiplex section protection rings, as their traffic have uniform

    routes and are sent bidirectional, time slots in the ring can be shared by all nodes, so the

    total capacity is closely related to the traffic distribution mode and quantity of nodes on

    the ring. The network capacity for four-fiber bidirectional multiplex section ring is M*STM-

    N (M is the number of nodes on the ring; STM-N is the STM level). If we count the

    protection channels as well, the maximum traffic load that a four-fiber bidirectional MS

    shared protection ring can carry is 2*M*STM-N. Nevertheless, half of the traffic would not

    be protected in case of fiber failures.

  • OptiX SDH Networking and Self-Healing Protection

    As network structures are becoming more and more complicated, the sub-network

    connection protection (SNCP) is the only traffic protection mode that can be adapted to

    various network topological structures with a fast switching time.

    The protection mechanism of SNCP is similar to the PP ring. But for SNCP, the protection

    function will be completed in the cross-connect unit not PDH unit.

    As shown in the figure , SNCP uses the 1+1 protection mode. Traffics are simultaneously

    sent on both the working and protection sub-network connection. When the working sub-

    network connection fails, or when its performance deteriorates to a certain level, at the

    receiving end of the sub-network connection, the signal from the protection sub-network

    connection is selected according to the preference selection rule. Switching usually takes

    the unidirectional switching mode, thus it needs no APS protocol.

    The protection mechanism of SNCP ring is concurrent sending in the transmitting end and

    selective receiving in the receiving end.

    Here is a ring chain combination network with 5 nodes. The ring network is SNCP ring.

    Suppose that there have E1 services from node A to the end node of the chain. The

    services will concurrently sent to both working SNC and protection SNC. After passing

    through subnetwork1 and subnetwork2 separately, they both reach node C. there is a

    selector in node C, the SNC termination node. Normally, node C will receive the service

    from the working SNC, then pass through to the line unit in the chain.

    When all the configuration has been completed, the configurations have to be tested to make sure it works.

    In order for us to test, two PCs are needed. Each PC is connected to port 1 of NE A and NE C. In the command prompt, use the ping command to test whether the services are configured successfully.

    PCs with IP addresses of 188.20.7.100 and 188.20.7.101 were used for the ping test in this case. The results below show the EPL service is working normally.
