2 Creating Network
About This Chapter
NEs and fibers or cables can be managed on the T2000 only after their topologies are created.
2.1 Creating NEsEach equipment is represented as an NE on the T2000. Before the T2000 manages the actualequipment, you need to create the corresponding NEs on the T2000. There are two methods ofcreating NEs: creating a single NE and creating NEs in batches. When you need to create a largenumber of NEs, for example, during deployment, it is recommended that you create NEs inbatches. When you need to create only a few NEs, it is recommended that you create the NEsone by one.
2.2 Creating an NE UserThe default NE user is a system-level user. To ensure the data security of the NE, allocatedifferent authorities for different NE users according to their working content. This sectiondescribes how to create an NE user on the T2000 and how to allocate the authority. In this way,you can control the access and configuration of the NE operators.
2.3 Switching a Logged-In NM UserDifferent NM users have different authorities. You can log in as another user to performoperations of different levels.
2.4 Configuring NE DataThough an NE is successfully created, it is not configured. You need to configure the NE firstso that the T2000 can manage and operate the NE. There are two ways of configuring the NEdata: copy NE data and upload.
2.5 Adding BoardsWhen configuring the NE dataAfter the NE data is configured, if physical boards are added, youneed to add boards on the NE Panel. You can either add the physical boards that actually operateon the NE or add the logical boards that do not exist on the actual equipment.
2.6 Adding Sub-BoardsThe equipment can realize different functions after you add different sub-boards to a processingboard.
2.7 Configuring the Equipment-Level ProtectionThe equipment-level protection includes the subcard TPS protection and board 1+1 protection.

2.8 Creating Fibers for PTN Equipment ManuallyNEs communicate with each other through fibers. After creating boards for each NE, you needto create fibers for further configuration of services. In this situation, you can manually createfibers one by one.
2.9 Creating a Topology SubnetThe subnet created here is based on a topological concept to facilitate management. In the caseof topology objects in the same network area or with similar attributes, you can allocate themin one topology subnet.
2.10 Configuring Inband DCNThe inband DCN refers to a DCN solution in which the service channels provided by the managedequipment are used to complete the network equipment management. When inband DCN isapplied, the T2000 information is transported through service channels of the equipment. Whenthe inband DCN is used for networking, no exclusive DCN channels are required. Hence, muchnetwork construction cost is saved.
2.11 Configuring ClocksThe stable clock is the basis to normal functioning of an NE. You must configure clocks for allNEs prior to configuring services. In addition, you need to configure clock protection forcomplex networks.
2.12 Configuring Linear MSPIn a chain network, you can configure a linear multiplex section protection (MSP) to protectservices in the link.
2.13 Parameter DescriptionThis section describes the parameters related to the network configuration.

When you need to create only a few NEs, it is recommended that you create the NEsone by one.
2.1.1 Creating NEs in BatchesWhen the T2000 communicates properly with a GNE, you can search for all NEs thatcommunicate with the GNE by using the IP address of the GNE or the network segment to whichthe IP address is associated, or by using the NSAP address of the NE. Then, you can create NEsin batches. This method is quicker and more accurate than manual creation.
2.1.2 Creating a Single NEThe T2000 can manage an NE after the NE is created. Although creating a single NE is not asfast and accurate as creating NEs in batches, you can perform this operation regardless of whetherthe data is configured on the NE or not.

NOTEYou can repeat Steps 2 through 3 to add more search domains. You can delete the system default searchdomain.
l If you use IP address to search for NEs:
l Usually, the broadcast function is disabled on the routers on a network, to avoid network broadcaststorm. Therefore, by using the IP Address Range of GNE method, only the NEs in the samenetwork segment can be searched out.
l To search the network segments across routers, the IP Address of GNE method is recommended.Through a gateway NE, you can search out the NEs in the network segment of the gateway NE.
Step 4 Click Start. The Search for NE dialog box is displayed.
Step 5 In the Search for NE dialog box, you can perform the following operations:l Select Search for NE and click OK to search for all NEs in the selected domain.l Select Create device after search, and enter NE user and Password. Then, click OK.

2.11 Configuring ClocksThe stable clock is the basis to normal functioning of an NE. You must configure clocks for allNEs prior to configuring services. In addition, you need to configure clock protection forcomplex networks.
2.11.1 Setting the Frequency Selection ModeThe OptiX PTN equipment supports two synchronization modes, that is, physicalsynchronization mode and PTP synchronization mode. The frequency source selection mode isused to set the clock synchronization mode of the NE. Before configuring the IEEE 1588 clock,you should set the frequency source selection mode to the PTP synchronization mode.
2.11.2 Setting the PTP ClockIEEE 1588 V2 is a standard for a precision clock synchronization protocol for networkedmeasurement and control systems. Each slave clock exchanges synchronization packets withthe master clock and thus maintains network-wide time/clock synchronization.
2.11.3 Configuring the NE Clock SourceBefore configuring services, you must configure the NE clock source and specify the prioritylevel to ensure that correct clock trace relations are created for all the NEs in the network.
2.11.4 Configuring the Clock Source ProtectionIn a complicated clock network, you need to configure the clock protection for all NEs. Afteryou set the clock source and specify the clock priority level for the NEs, you can enable thestandard SSM or extended SSM protocol to prevent the NEs from tracing an incorrect clocksource. This is how the clocks are protected.
2.11.5 Configuring Switching Conditions for Clock SourcesIf the traceable clock source of an NE is line clock, you can customize switching conditions forthe clock source, so that the NE switches to other clocks when the clock source fails. In thismanner, services are less affected.
2.11.6 Configuring the Clock Source ReversionWhen there are multiple clock sources for an NE, set the clock sources to automatic reversionmode, so that the deteriorated clock source automatically becomes the traceable timing referenceafter it recovers.
2.11.7 Configuring the Phase-Locked Source for External Clock OutputWhen a clock signal passes through 14 or more NEs, frequency offset and drift may occur. Asa result, the clock signal transmitted to the downstream NE is degraded. To avoid clock signaldegrade, you need to set a 2M phase-locked source to optimize the clock signal.
2.11.8 Setting the Clock Source QualityIn a complex clock network, there may be some unknown clock sources. You can uniformlydefine these clock sources as unavailable clocks so that NEs do not trace wrong clock sources.The NE obtains their quality information automatically for clock sources that are allocated toan NE. You should define the quality level of clock sources only during test and maintenance.
2.11.9 Configuring the SSM OutputIf the standard SSM or extended SSM protocol is enabled, the clock signals carry SSM messagesautomatically. You can prevent clock sources from sending SSM messages to other clocksubnets. This helps you to ensure that the equipment of different clock subnets do not affect eachother at the edge of clock networks.
2.11.10 Switching a Clock Source

When the traceable clock source in a network deteriorates, NEs may not be able to execute aswitch on the clock source. You need to manually switch the clock source to prevent clockdeterioration from affecting the normal running of NEs.
2.11.1 Setting the Frequency Selection ModeThe OptiX PTN equipment supports two synchronization modes, that is, physicalsynchronization mode and PTP synchronization mode. The frequency source selection mode isused to set the clock synchronization mode of the NE. Before configuring the IEEE 1588 clock,you should set the frequency source selection mode to the PTP synchronization mode.
PrerequisiteYou must be an NM user with "NE operator" authority or higher.
ProcedureStep 1 In NE Explorer, choose Configuration > Clock > Frequency Selection Mode from the
Function Tree.
Step 2 In Frequency Selection Mode, you can select one of the clock synchronization mode.
CAUTIONl When the external time interface is set to the external time input interface, the NE can run
in only the physical synchronization mode. That is, the frequency selection mode of theequipment that accesses the external clock must be set to the physical synchronization mode.
l When the NE is running in the PTP synchronization mode, the external interface cannot beset to the external time input interface.
Step 3 Click Apply.

5 Configuring the Control Plane
About This Chapter
The control plane, responsible for the call control and connection control, consists of a group ofcommunication entities. The control plane creates, releases, monitors and maintains theconnection through signaling, and it automatically recovers the connection upon failure.
5.1 Basic ConceptsThis section describes the related protocols of the control plane and application scenarios ofthese protocols when the control plane is configured.
5.2 Configuring the IGP-ISIS ProtocolIf the dynamic MPLS tunnel is required, the IGP-ISIS protocol must be configured. The IGP-ISIS protocol is used to discover the network topology. Through the IGP-ISIS protocol, eachNE can obtain the information of the adjacent NE. When the IGP-ISIS protocol is used with theRSVP-TE protocol, the creation of the MPLS tunnel is complete. The IGP-ISIS protocolconfiguration includes the configuration of node and port attributes, query and configuration ofroute importing information, and query of the TE link information.
5.3 Configuring the MPLS-LDP ProtocolIf the dynamic PW need be configured, the MPLS-LDP protocol must be configured. The MPLS-LDP is used to create the dynamic PW and to distribute the PW label. The NE can only obtainthe information of the adjacent NE through the IGP-ISIS protocol. In the case of a single service,the NEs at the two ends can known each other by configuring the MPLS-LDP peer entity of theMPLS-LDP protocol. On the T2000, the MPLS-LDP peer entities can be created and the MPLS-LDP protocol can be configured.
5.4 Configuring the MPLS-RSVP ProtocolThe MPLS-RSVP protocol is used to create dynamic MPLS tunnel and to distribute the tunnellabel. On the T2000, the parameters of the MPLS-RSVP protocol can be queried. This protocoldoes not need special configuration, and thus the user can configure each parameter accordingto requirements.
5.5 Configuring Static RoutesThe static routes are selected according to the preset route options in the network. On theT2000, the static routes can be queried and created.

5.1 Basic ConceptsThis section describes the related protocols of the control plane and application scenarios ofthese protocols when the control plane is configured.
5.1.1 IGP-ISIS ProtocolThe intermediate system to intermediate system (IS-IS) routing protocol, a link state protocol,belongs to the internal gateway protocol and is applicable to the internal of the autonomoussystem. The equipment uses the IS-IS routing protocol, which is used with the label distributionprotocols RSVP-TE and LDP to realize the dynamic creation of the MPLS LSP.
5.1.2 MPLS-LDP ProtocolThe multi-protocol label switch label distribution protocol (MPLS-LDP) is used for the labelswitched routers (LSR) to distribute labels in the network.
5.1.3 MPLS-RSVP ProtocolMulti-protocol label switch resource reservation protocol (MPLS-RSVP) supports thedistribution of MPLS labels. In addition, when transmitting the label binding message, it carriesthe resource reservation information, used as a signaling protocol to create, delete or modify thetunnel in the MPLS network.
5.1.4 ARP ProtocolAddress resolution protocol (ARP) is used to map the IP address (alias: logical address) at thenetwork layer into the MAC address (alias: physical address) at the data link layer.
5.1.1 IGP-ISIS ProtocolThe intermediate system to intermediate system (IS-IS) routing protocol, a link state protocol,belongs to the internal gateway protocol and is applicable to the internal of the autonomoussystem. The equipment uses the IS-IS routing protocol, which is used with the label distributionprotocols RSVP-TE and LDP to realize the dynamic creation of the MPLS LSP.
The IS-IS routing protocol used by the equipment creates and synchronizes the link state database(LSD) through routing protocol packets, such as link state PDUs. Based on the LSDB and pathcost, the equipment uses the optimized shortest path first (SPF) algorithm to generate the routingtable, and uses the IS-IS TE of the IS-IS routing protocol to generate the traffic engineeringdatabase (TEDB). The TEDB and routing table are the bases of creating the MPLS LSP. TheTEDB computes the route that the MPLS LSP travels through. The routing table forwards theRSVP-TE and LDP protocol packets to realize label distribution. In this way, the MPLS LSP isdynamically created.
Three features of the IS-IS routing protocol are supported by the equipment, that is, three typesof IS-IS routing protocol packets, optimized SPF algorithm, path cost, and IS-IS trafficengineering (IS-IS TE).
Three Types of IS-IS Routing Protocol Packets
The IS-IS routing protocol belongs to the network player of the OSI protocol model. The IS-ISrouting protocol runs directly at the data link layer. When the IS-IS routing protocol is processed,the decapsulation of the network layer is absent. With the preceding feature, the IS-IS routingprotocol is more applicable to the PTN transport network using the MPLS packet switchingtechnology.

The IS-IS routing protocol packets use the uniform encapsulation format. The length of thepackets is changeable and the extensibility is strong. The complexity of the protocol is decreased,because the types of the protocol packets are few. Thus, the running is more reliable and efficient.
The equipment realizes the following three types of IS-IS routing protocol packets:
l Hello packets
Hello packets are used to construct and maintain neighbor relation between network nodes.Hence, Hello packets are also called IS-to-IS hello (IIH) PDUs.
l Link state PDUs
Link state PDUs are used to exchange the link state information. In a network running theIS-IS routing protocol, each network node generates a link state PDU, which contains allthe link state information of this network node. To generate its own LSDB, each networknode collects all the link state PDUs within the local domain and between domains.
l SNP packets
Sequence number PDUs (SNP) describe the link state PDUs in all or part of the LSDB.The SNP is used to synchronize and maintain the LSDB of each network node in thePTN network.
Optimized SPF Algorithm
The IS-IS routing protocol realized by the equipment uses the optimized SPF algorithm for routecomputation and update. When the topology is changed, the resources (network bandwidth,processing capability of network nodes, and memory) for updating the new route are few, andthus the convergence rate of the entire network is improved.
Path Cost
The equipment supports the manual setting of path cost, and controls the route that the MPLSLSP travels through when it is dynamically created.
IS-IS TE
When the MPLS constructs the LSP, the traffic engineering information of all the links in thelocal domain should be known. The IS-IS TE realized by the equipment supports the constructionof the MPLS LSP. The equipment obtains the traffic engineering information (link utilizationand path cost) of all the links in the network through the IS-IS routing protocol. It constructsand synchronizes the TEDB, and uses the constrained shortest path first (CSPF) algorithm usedby the TEDB to compute the route that the MPLS LSP travels through.
5.1.2 MPLS-LDP ProtocolThe multi-protocol label switch label distribution protocol (MPLS-LDP) is used for the labelswitched routers (LSR) to distribute labels in the network.
MPLS-LDP Peer Entities
The MPLS-LDP peer entities refer to two NEs, where LDP session exists, use the MPLS-LDPto exchange labels mapping relation.

MPLS-LDP SessionThe MPLS-LDP session is used to exchange label mapping and releasing messages betweendifferent equipment. The MPLS-LDP session consists the following two types:l Local MPLS-LDP session, in which the two NEs used to set up the session is directly
connected.l Remote MPLS-LDP session, in which the two NEs used to set up the session is not directly
connected.
MPLS-LDP Message TypesThe MPLS-LDP protocol mainly uses the following four types of messages:l Discovery message, which is used to notify and maintain the existence of the equipment
in the network.l Session message, which is used to set up, maintain and end the session between MPLS-
LDP peer entities.l Advertisement message, which is used to create, change and delete the label mapping.
l Notification message, which is used to provide the constructive message and errornotification.
Working Mode of the MPLS-LDPThe label distribution process has two modes. The main difference between the two modes iswhether the label mapping is released in the upstream request mode or downstream unsoliciteddistribution mode. The two label releasing modes are as follows:l Upstream request mode, in which the equipment in the upstream sends the label request
message to the equipment in the downstream. The equipment in the downstream returnsthe bound labels to the equipment in the upstream through label mapping message. Whenthe equipment in the downstream returns the label mapping message is determined by thelabel control mode used by the equipment.– If the ordered mode is used, only when the equipment receives the label mapping
message returned by the equipment in the downstream, it sends the label mappinginformation to the upstream.
– If the independent mode is used, the equipment immediately sends the label mappingmessage to the upstream, regardless of whether it receives the label mapping messagereturned by the equipment in the downstream.
l Downstream unsolicited distribution mode, in which the equipment in the downstream takethe initiative to release the label mapping message to the equipment in the upstream afterthe MPLS-LDP session is successfully set up. The equipment in the upstream saves thelabel mapping information, and manages the received label mapping information accordingto the route table information.
Basic Operation of the MPLS-LDPIn sequence, the MPLS-LDP operation consists of the following four phases:l Development phase: In this phase, the equipment that expects to set up a session
periodically sends Hello message to the adjacent equipment to notify the adjacent node ofthe local peer relation. In this process, the equipment can automatically discover its LDPpeer entity without manual configuration.

5-5
l Session set-up and maintenance: After the peer relation is set up, the equipment begins toset up the session.
l PW set-up and maintenance: The set-up of the PW is based on the MPLS-LDP protocol.
l Session cancellation: A life state timer is set up for each session. When each LDP PDU isreceived, this timer is refreshed. If the timer times out before a new LDP PDU is received,the equipment takes that the session is interrupted and the peer relation is invalid. Theequipment shuts down the corresponding connection at the transmission layer to end thesession.
5.1.3 MPLS-RSVP ProtocolMulti-protocol label switch resource reservation protocol (MPLS-RSVP) supports thedistribution of MPLS labels. In addition, when transmitting the label binding message, it carriesthe resource reservation information, used as a signaling protocol to create, delete or modify thetunnel in the MPLS network.
Basic Concepts of the MPLS-RSVP
The MPLS-RSVP is a notification mechanism of the resource reservation in the network, whichrealizes the bandwidth reservation on the control plane. As a label distribution protocol, it isused to set up the LSP in the MPLS network.
For details of the MPLS-RSVP extension, refer to RFC3209.
Resource Reservation Style
The LSP set up by using the MPLS-RSVP is of a certain reservation style. When the RSVPsession is set up, the receive end determines which reservation style to be used, and thusdetermines which LSP to be used.l Fixed-filter (FF) style: When this style is used, resources are reserved for each transmit end
individually. Thus, transmit ends in the same session cannot share the resources with eachother.
l Shared-explicit (SE) style: When this style is used, resources are reserved for all transmitends in the same session. Thus, transmit ends can share the resources.
MPLS-RSVP Message Type
The MPLS-RSVP uses the following message types:l Path message: The transmit end sends this type of message in the transmission direction of
data packets. In addition, the path state is saved on all the nodes along the trail.l Resv message: The receive end sends this type of message in the reverse transmission
direction of data packets. In addition, the resource reservation is requested, and thereservation state is created and maintained on all the nodes along the trail.
Tunnel Created by Using the MPLS-RSVP
As shown in Figure 5-1, the creation process of the LSP tunnel by using the MPLS-RSVP islisted as follows:l The ingress equipment generates the Path message, which is transmitted in the direction of
the egress equipment.

l After the egress equipment receives the Path message, the Resv message is generated andthen is returned to the ingress equipment. In addition, the Resv message reserves resourceson the equipment along the trail.
l When the ingress equipment receives the Resv message, the LSP is successfully created.The LSP created by using the MPLS-RSVP has the resource reservation function. Theequipment along the trail can distribute some resources to the LSP to ensure the serviceson the LSP.

Parameters of the MPLS-RSVP State Timer
The parameters of the MPLS-RSVP state timer include the refreshing period of the Path or Resvmessage, multiple of the path state block (PSB) timeout and reservation state block (RSB)timeout.
In the case of the creation of the LSP, the transmit end adds the LABEL_REQUEST object tothe Path message. When the receive end receives the Path message with the LABEL_REQUESTobject, it distributes one label and adds the label to the LABEL object of the Resv message.
The LABEL_REQUEST object is saved in the PSB of the upstream node, and the LABEL objectis saved in the RSB of the downstream node. When the message indicating that the number ofmessage refreshing times exceeds the multiple of the PSB or RSB timeout is not continuouslyreceived, the corresponding state in the PSB or RSB is deleted.
Assume that there is a resource reservation request, which does not pass the access control onsome nodes. In some cases, this request is not supposed to be immediately deleted, but it cannotstop other requests from using its reserved resources. In this case, the node enters the blockadestate, and the blockade state block (BSB) is generated on the node of the downstream. When themessage indicating that the number of the message refreshing times exceeds the multiple of thePSB or RSB timeout is continuously received, the corresponding state in the BSB is deleted.
5.1.4 ARP ProtocolAddress resolution protocol (ARP) is used to map the IP address (alias: logical address) at thenetwork layer into the MAC address (alias: physical address) at the data link layer.
ARP Frame Format

Static ARP
Static ARP means that there is a fixed mapping relation between the IP address and the MACaddress, and thus you cannot adjust this relation dynamically on the equipment or the router.For the static ARP, you need to manually create a table that is stored on each equipment in thenetwork.
The static ARP table is used in the following scenarios:
l When a packet is transmitted to a destination address beyond the local network segment,this packet is bound with a specific network interface card (NIC) in order to be forwardedthrough this gateway.

Issue 06 (2009-06-01)
l To filter out certain illegal IP addresses, you can bind these addresses with an MAC addressthat does not exist to realize the filtering.
Dynamic ARPDynamic ARP means that the mapping relation between the IP address and the MAC address isconstantly refreshed and adjusted through address learning.
Changing the NIC or moving the host to another network usually changes the physical address.The corresponding MAC address can be obtained in a timely manner based on the dynamic ARPaddress resolution.
ARP PrincipleWhen a host or other network equipment needs to transmit data to another host or equipment,IP data packets must be encapsulated into frames to be transmitted in the physical network.During the transmission, the destination MAC address must be available.
When the equipment on the transmit station wants to obtain the MAC address of anotherequipment in the network, the transmit station searches for the MAC address corresponding tothe IP address in the ARP table. If the ARP table is available, the transmit station obtains theMAC address from the ARP table directly. Otherwise, the ARP function is enabled. As shownin Figure 5-3, host A sends data to host B to obtain the MAC address of host B.
To obtain the MAC address of the station whose IP address is 10.1.1.2, host A broadcasts anARP request packet in the network. The packet carries the information about the MAC addressand IP address of the transmit station, and the IP address of the destination station. All theequipment in the network receives and handles the ARP request packet. Only host B on thedestination station, however, can identify the IP address and return an ARP answer packet.According to the MAC address of the transmit station in the request packet, host B sends theARP answer packet to the request station in unicast mode. After receiving the ARP answerpacket, host A obtains the MAC address of host B.

6 Configuring an MPLS Tunnel
About This Chapter
In a PSN network, the MPLS tunnel carries PWs where various services are encapsulated. Inthis way, data packets can be transparently transmitted among NEs. One MPLS tunnel can carryseveral PWs. Before configuring a service, first configure a MPLS tunnel that carries the service.On the T2000, you can use the trail function or per-NE configuration scheme to configure anMPLS tunnel.
6.1 Basic ConceptsBefore configuring the MPLS tunnel, familiar yourself with the MPLS and MPLS tunnel, andapplication scenarios of the MPLS tunnel.
6.2 Creating a Dynamic MPLS Tunnel and the FRR Protection by Using the Trail FunctionTo fast create a dynamic MPLS tunnel by using the trail function, just specify the Ingress andEgress nodes of the MPLS tunnel. During creation of the MPLS tunnel, fast rerouting can beconfigured.
6.3 Creating a Static MPLS Tunnel by Using the Trail FunctionTo create a static MPLS tunnel by using the trail function, specify the NEs involved in the MPLStunnel.
6.4 Configuring Basic Attributes of the MPLSIn the Basic Configuration interface, you can set LSR ID, Start of Global Label Space andStart of Multicast Label Space.
6.5 Creating an MPLS Tunnel on a Per-NE BasisYou can create an end-to-end unicast MPLS tunnel on a per-NE basis. To create such a tunnel,create a tunnel at each node involved in the tunnel.
6.6 Querying the Tunnel Label InformationOn the NE, the label for each tunnel is unique. By querying the tunnel label information, youcan learn the usage of tunnel labels. Thus, you can avoid the conflict of labels when creating astatic tunnel.
6.7 Configuring MPLS OAMConfigure the MPLS OAM to enable the CV/FFD detection of a tunnel. In this way, theconnectivity of the MPLS tunnel can be monitored in a real-time manner and the MPLS tunnelswitching can be triggered.

6.1 Basic ConceptsBefore configuring the MPLS tunnel, familiar yourself with the MPLS and MPLS tunnel, andapplication scenarios of the MPLS tunnel.
6.1.1 MPLS and MPLS TunnelAs a transmission technology, the multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) can realize transparenttransmission of data packets among users. The MPLS tunnel is the tunnel defined in the MPLSprotocol. Independent from the service, the MPLS tunnel realizes the end-to-end transmissionand carries the PWs related to the service.
6.1.2 Application of the MPLS TunnelAs the carrier of PWs in the network, the MPLS Tunnel provides the service tunnel to transmitservice packets. The MPLS Tunnel can carry various services, such as IP packets, C-VLANand S-VLAN packets, MPLS packets, and ATM packets. The MPLS Tunnel is mainly used fortransparent transmission of point-to-point data service packets and Tunnel protection group.

PW
The MPLS tunnel only provides an end-to-end channel, and does not care which service isencapsulated in the PW it carries. Data packets are first encapsulated in the PW, which is stuckwith an MPLS label and sent to the MPLS tunnel for transmission. At the sink end, data packetsare recovered and retain the original service features. In the tunnel, the intermediate nodes arecalled Transit nodes. Hence, a tunnel contains the Ingress node, Egress node and Transit nodes.
6.1.2 Application of the MPLS TunnelAs the carrier of PWs in the network, the MPLS Tunnel provides the service tunnel to transmitservice packets. The MPLS Tunnel can carry various services, such as IP packets, C-VLANand S-VLAN packets, MPLS packets, and ATM packets.

Transparent Transmission of Point-to-Point Data PacketsCommonly, the MPLS tunnel is used to provide a point-to-point service channel for servicessuch as the E-Line service. In this way, provider edges (PEs) in a PSN network can transparentlytransmit services. Figure 6-2 shows how point-to-point data packets are transparentlytransmitted.

PE
An edge node in one network accesses the services from Node B, and transports the services tothe RNC connected to another PE. For such transport, one point-to-point MPLS tunnel can beused. On the T2000, two schemes can be used to create such a unicast tunnel.l Configuration on a per-NE basis: Configure the ingress port and the IP address of the next
hop at each NE involved in the MPLS tunnel. In this way, one unicast MPLS tunnel iscreated.
l Configuration by trail: This configuration is classified into static configuration and dynamicconfiguration.– Static configuration: Specify the source and sink NEs for the MPLS tunnel, and each
NE involved in the tunnel. In this way, one unicast MPLS tunnel is created.– Dynamic configuration: Only specify the source and sink NEs of the MPLS tunnel. The
equipment then creates a unicast MPLS tunnel through signaling.
Tunnel Protection GroupThe MPLS tunnels of the same type are created in one tunnel protection group. In this way, 1+1 or 1:1 protection is provided to these MPLS tunnels. If the working MPLS tunnel fails, theTunnel protection group ensures that services can still normally run.

NOTE
For Route Constraint Port IP Address, set the IP address of the port involved in the MPLS tunnel.
For Rerouting Mode, set the excluded node, loose explicit node or strict explicit node.
l Exclude indicates that the created MPLS tunnel does not involve the Route Constraint Port IPAddress.
l Include Loose indicates that the tunnel must traverse the ports with Route Constraint Port IPAddress and must traverse the constraint ports in the same sequence in which the ports are added intothe constraint list. There can be multiple hops between Include Loose constraint ports. That is, thenumber of hops along the tunnel can be larger than the number of constraint ports added in the constraintlist for the tunnel.
l Include Strict indicates that the tunnel must traverse the ports with Route Constraint Port IPAddress and must traverse the constraint ports in the same sequence in which the ports are added intothe constraint list. There can be only one hop between Include Strict ports. That is, the IncludeStrict constraint port must be directly connected to the existing constraint port.

l Setup Priority: 7 (Setup priority is specified for an MPLS tunnel during creation. "0"indicates the highest priority. In the case insufficiency of resources, the MPLS tunnelof a higher setup priority can preempt the bandwidth of other MPLS tunnels and thuscan be created successfully.)
l Hold Priority: 0 (Hold priority is specified for an MPLS tunnel after creation. "0"indicates the highest priority. In the case of insufficiency of resources, the bandwidthfor the MPLS tunnel of a higher hold priority is less likely to be preempted by othertunnels. When creating a dynamic tunnel, make sure that the hold priority is higher orequal to the setup priority.)
l Color(0x): 0 (Set the affinity attribute of a link. When the primary tunnel is faulty, thelink with the same color is preferred during rerouting. When the affinity attribute oflinks is not required, adopt the default value.)
l Mask(0x): 0 (Set the number of bits of the mask. Match the number of bits of a maskwith the link color. Select the route of a matching link color.)
l Tunnel Type: Primary Tunnel (You can set the tunnel type to primary tunnel or bypasstunnel. According to the planning, the tunnel is a primary tunnel in this case.)
l Fast Re-Route: Selected

l FRR Type: Facility Mode (In the facility mode, one LSP tunnel protects multiple LSPtunnels. Currently, the OptiX PTN equipment supports only the facility backup mode.)
l FRR Protection Type: Protection Node Mode– In the case of the protection node mode, the bypass tunnel selected by the PLR must
protect the downstream node adjacent to the PLR, and the links between them. Ifany other link is faulty, the FRR protection switching is triggered through the controlplane. This process takes a relatively long time.
– In the case of the protection link mode, the bypass tunnel selected by the PLR mustprotect the link between the PLR and downstream adjacent node.

6.10.1 Networking DiagramThis section shows the networking diagram for the example of configuring a static MPLS tunnel.
As shown in Figure 6-6, the service between NodeB and RNC is to be carried by a static MPLStunnel. NE1 accesses the service from NodeB. Then, the service is transmitted to the 10GE ringon the convergence layer through the GE ring on the access layer. Finally, the service isconverged at NE3 and transmitted to RNC.
If the service requires high network security, configure the MPLS APS protection to ensureservice transmission. For details on how to configure the MPLS APS protection, refer to MPLSAPS in the Feature Description.l Working tunnel: NE1-NE2-NE3. NE2 is a transit node.
l Protection tunnel: NE1-NE6-NE5-NE4-NE3. NE6, NE5, NE4, and NE3 are transit nodes.When the working tunnel becomes faulty, the service on it is switched to the protectiontunnel for protection.

About This Chapter
This section describes the basic information about the CES service and illustrates how toconfigure the CES service.
9.1 CES Service TypeCircuit emulation service (CES) applies the PWE3 emulation technology. For a CES service,the PWE3 packet headers contain the frame format information, alarm information, signalinginformation, and synchronous timing information of the TDM service flow. After encapsulatedby the protocol, the PW packets are transported over the MPLS tunnel, IP Tunnel, GRETunnel in the PSN network. When reaching the PW egress, the PW packets are decapsulated torebuild the TDM circuit-switching service flow.
9.2 Configuration Flow of CES ServicesThis section describes the operation tasks for configuring CES services, and relations amongthese tasks. When configuring or managing CES services, follow the configuration flows.
9.3 CES Service Operation TasksThe main operation tasks of configuring CES services include fast creating point-to-point CESservices and creating point-to-point CES services on a per-NE basis.
9.4 Configuration Case of the UNI-UNI CES ServiceThis section describes the configuration case of the UNI-UNI CES service.
9.5 Configuration Case of the UNI-NNI CES ServiceThis section describes the configuration case of the UNI-NNI CES service.
9.6 Checking the Correctness of the Service ConfigurationAfter the CES service is configured, you need to check the correctness of the serviceconfiguration. You can check the correctness of the CES service configuration as follows: attacha 2M BER tester at the CES port and then perform loopbacks at the remote end.
9.7 Parameter DescriptionThis section describes the parameters related to the CES service configuration.

9.1 CES Service TypeCircuit emulation service (CES) applies the PWE3 emulation technology. For a CES service,the PWE3 packet headers contain the frame format information, alarm information, signalinginformation, and synchronous timing information of the TDM service flow. After encapsulatedby the protocol, the PW packets are transported over the MPLS tunnel, IP Tunnel, GRETunnel in the PSN network. When reaching the PW egress, the PW packets are decapsulated torebuild the TDM circuit-switching service flow.
Application ModeThe CES service allows a metropolitan Ethernet network (MEN) carrier to provide TDM servicesto customers that have only the TDM equipment. This enlarges the service range and the numberof users of the MEN carriers, and provides a way to transform the traditional circuit network tothe wideband data network.
The CES service mainly applies to the wireless service and the enterprise private line service.The application scenarios include UNI-NNI and UNI-UNI, as shown in Figure 9-1.l UNI-NNI CES service: The PTN equipment accesses the TDM services of customers by
using the TDM or channelized STM interface. The CES PW can be created between thePTN equipments to emulate the end-to-end TDM service. To customers, the CES servicesare similar to actual TDM services.
l UNI-UNI CES service: The PTN equipment accesses the TDM services by using a singlepoint.
NOTE
Now only the point-to-point service is supported. That is, the service of one E1 interface mapping to onePW is supported. But converged services of several TDM interfaces mapping to one PW are not supported.

Emulation Mode
The PTN equipment supports two types of CES services: structure-aware TDM circuit emulationservice over packet switched network (CESoPSN) and structure-agnostic TDM over packet(SAToP).
In the CESoPSN mode:
l The PTN equipment senses frame structures, frame alignment modes and timeslots in theTDM circuit.
l The PTN equipment processes the overhead and extracts the payload in TDM frames. Then,the PTN equipment delivers the timeslot of each channel to the packet payload accordingto certain sequence. As a result, the service in each channel in the packet is fixed and visible.
l Each Ethernet frame that carries the CES service loads TDM frames of a fixed number.Usually the loading time is 0.125 to 5 ms.
In the SAToP mode:

l The equipment regards TDM signals as constant rate bit flows, instead of sensing structuresin the TDM signals. The entire bandwidth of TDM signals is emulated.
l The overhead and payload in the TDM signal are transparently transmitted.l The Ethernet frame carries the CES service. Usually the loading time is 1 ms.
In the CESoPSN mode, for the free 64 kbit/s timeslot in TDM E1 signal, the PTN equipmentprovides the compression function to save the transmission bandwidth. The timeslot numberranges from 0 to 31. The timeslot number of 0 indicates a reserved timeslot for transmittingsignaling.
Service ClockThe TDM service has high requirements for the clock synchronization. The PTN equipmentprovides solution to the CES service clock synchronization. See Table 9-1.

Networking and Requirement
Between BTS and BSC, the CES service is transported through the PTN equipment, as shownin Figure 9-7. Two CES services are available between BTS and BSC that are connected toNE1. NE1 uses the OptiX PTN 1900 to access the services from the base stations, and NE2 andNE3 uses the OptiX PTN 3900. Tunnels should be configured between NE1 and NE3.
If the service requires high network security, configure the MPLS APS protection to ensureservice transmission.l Working tunnel: NE1-NE2-NE3. NE2 is a transit node.

10.1 Basic InformationThis section describes the basic information about the ATM service and ATM traffic.
10.1.1 ATM ServiceAsynchronous transfer mode (ATM) is a technology used to transport packets in cells withensured QoS. ATM meets the requirements of real-time services and non-real-time services.The OptiX PTN equipment supports both the UNIs-NNI ATM service and UNI-UNI ATMservice.
10.1.2 ATM TrafficThe ATM communicates through virtual connections, which are uniquely identified by the VPI/VCI in the cell header. During data transmission, you need to control the traffic of each virtualconnection to ensure the quality of service (QoS).
10.1.1 ATM ServiceAsynchronous transfer mode (ATM) is a technology used to transport packets in cells withensured QoS. ATM meets the requirements of real-time services and non-real-time services.The OptiX PTN equipment supports both the UNIs-NNI ATM service and UNI-UNI ATMservice.
ATM emulation services mainly apply to wireless services. The application scenarios includeUNIs-NNI and UNI-UNI, as shown in Figure 10-1.
l UNIs-NNI ATM service: The PTN equipment accesses the ATM services of customers byusing the IMA link or STM link respectively. You can create the ATM PW between thePTN equipment to emulate end-to-end ATM services. At the source end, the ATM cellsare encapsulated in the PW. Then, data packets are transparently transmitted in the MPLSnetwork. At the sink end, the ATM services are decapsulated and forwarded to theconnected customer network. To customers, the UNIs-NNI ATM services are similar toactual ATM services.
l UNI-UNI ATM services: The PTN equipment switches and transmits the ATM services ata single point.

10.1.2 ATM TrafficThe ATM communicates through virtual connections, which are uniquely identified by the VPI/VCI in the cell header. During data transmission, you need to control the traffic of each virtualconnection to ensure the quality of service (QoS).
ATM Traffic ModesAs shown in Table 10-1, the PTN equipment supports four traffic modes. During traffic control,you need to set different traffic parameters according to different service types.

Application Type ApplicationInstance
Traffic Parameter Remarks
Real time variable bitrate (rtVBR) service
Audio services, andvideo services of avariable bit rate
PCR, SCR, CDVT,MBS
The rtVBR supportstime-sensitiveservice applicationsand have restrictionson the delay anddelay variation.
Non real timevariable bit rate(nrtVBR) service
Data packettransmission,terminal meeting,and file transmission
PCR, SCR, MBS The nrtVBR does nothave restrictions onthe delay and delayvariation butsupports applicationof services with thevariable rate andburst traffic features.
The meanings of the traffic parameters in the table are as follows:l Peak cell rate (PCR): It defines the maximum cell rate at which cells are transmitted to a
network.l Sustainable cell rate (SCR): It defines the maximum sustainable average cell rate at which
cells are transmitted to a network.l Cell delay variation tolerance (CDVT): When multiple connected cells are converged, at
the convergence egress, the transmission of a connected cell may be delayed because ofthe insertion of other connected cells. Similarly, the transmission delay may also be causedby the insertion of physical layer overheads and OAM cells. In other words. the cells donot evenly arrive at the receive station. The arrival intervals of consecutive cells aredifferent in different periods. The maximum tolerance of this difference is called CDVT.
l Maximum burst size (MBS): It limits the maximum cell burst amount within the maximumrate permitted.
Users require each service type to provide a certain QoS and comply with a certain trafficprotocol, which is realized by traffic control. During transmission, only user cells complyingwith the protocol can be successfully transmitted. Cells that do not comply with the protocol arelabelled or discarded according to different situations.
Basic Principle of Traffic ControlIn general, the control of ATM services combines the preventive control and reactive controlmethods. Preventive control is the main method, but when congestion occurs, the network cantake measures to clear the congestion.
In point of effect, the ATM traffic control can be classified into two parts as follows:l Traffic parameter control: preventive control
l Congestion control: reactive control

Traffic Parameter ControlThe function of traffic parameter control is used to set up proper connections and to control theconnected cell flow according to the traffic parameters. If the control of these parameters fails,traffic congestion may occur. The traffic parameter control includes the following methods:l Usage parameter control (UPC)/network parameter control (NPC)
l Traffic shaping
UPC/NPC
UPC/NPC monitors and controls the traffic to judge whether cell violation occurs according tothe negotiated parameters. If cell violation occurs, corresponding measures will be taken toprevent network resources from being invaded viciously or unintentionally. This ensures thatone link never violates the traffic control.
UPC is an act of connection monitoring at the UNI (dedicated or public), and NPC is an act ofconnection monitoring at the NNI (dedicated or public).
According to different traffic types. the UPC includes the following measures:l Allow cells to pass through: The cells are considered protocol-abiding by the UPC.
l Label cells: This operation is performed on the cell loss priority (CLP). The UPC labelsonly cells whose CLP values are 0 by changing the CLP values to 1. In this case, these cellsare in conflict with the traffic convention. If the bandwidth is sufficient, these cells areallowed to pass through. If the bandwidth is insufficient, however, these labeled cells arediscarded.
l Discard cells: The cells violate the protocol and thus cannot be transmitted continuously.
Traffic Shaping
Traffic shaping is a method of changing the traffic feature of a cell flow to realize a highernetwork efficiency and ensure the QoS index. Traffic shaping helps the cell flow to be transmittedmore evenly, maximize the efficiency, and eases the network burden.
Congestion ControlTraffic parameter control is based on the connection and cells, but congestion control relates todifferent service types.
If a network requires discarding cells, a better solution of congestion is to discard packets ratherthan cells. When an NE discards cells, it also discards a part of the packet. As a result, the upperlayer protocol, such as the TCP/IP protocol, is retransmitted, and thus congestion or even collapseoccurs.
10.2 ATM Service Configuration FlowThis section describes the operation tasks for configuring the ATM service, and relations amongthese tasks. When configuring and managing the ATM services, follow the configuration flow.The application scenarios of the ATM service include the UNI-UNI and UNIs-NNI services.

Figure 10-7 shows the networking diagram of the UNIs-NNI ATM service. The 3G R99,signalling and HSDPA services are required between the two base stations and RNC. NE1accesses the MPLS network formed by the PTN equipment. Node B1 is connected to NE1through IMA1, and Node B2 is connected to NE1 through IMA2. The VPI/VCI switching isperformed on NE1, and the VPI/VCI transparent transmission is performed on NE2 and NE3.Between NE1 and NE3, three PWs are used to carry the R99, signalling and HSDPA servicesrespectively. At the remote end, to transparently transmit the ATM service in the MPLS network,NE3 is connected to RNC through STM-1. NE1 is an OptiX PTN 1900 NE, and NE2, NE3,NE4, NE5 are OptiX PTN 3900s, and NE6 is an OptiX PTN 950. The ATM services are carriedby the working tunnel. The protection tunnel can be created to protect the services that have highreal-time requirement.
The working tunnel is NE1-NE2-NE3, and the protection tunnel is NE1-NE6-NE5-NE4-NE3.

11 Configuring an E-Line Service
About This Chapter
This section describes basic information on E-Line services, and uses an example to illustratehow to configure an E-Line service.
11.1 E-Line ServiceIn the topology, the EPL service is a point-to-point service. The equipment transmits the packetsof a specific port or of specific VLANs of a specific port at the user side to a certain port at theuser or network side, a PW or a QinQ Link at the network side. In this way, the user data can betransparently transmitted in a point-to-point manner.
11.2 Configuration Flow for the E-Line ServiceThe configuration flow of the E-Line service include creating network, configuring the QoSpolicy, configuring interfaces, configuring the control plane and configuring the E-Line service.
11.3 Operation Tasks for the E-Line ServiceOperation tasks for the E-Line service include creation of E-Line services and creation of V-UNI groups.
11.4 Configuration Case of the UNI-UNI E-Line ServiceThis section uses a case to show the configuration of the UNI-UNI E-Line service, and theconfiguration flow. The configuration case covers the service planning and configuration of theEthernet service.
11.5 Configuration Case of the UNI-NNI E-Line Service Carried by PortsA case is provided here to show the configuration of the UNI-NNI E-Line service carried byports, and the configuration flow.

11.1 E-Line ServiceIn the topology, the EPL service is a point-to-point service. The equipment transmits the packetsof a specific port or of specific VLANs of a specific port at the user side to a certain port at theuser or network side, a PW or a QinQ Link at the network side. In this way, the user data can betransparently transmitted in a point-to-point manner.
According to the service transmission mode, the E-Line service can be classified into thefollowing types:
l UNI-UNI E-Line service
l UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by ports
l UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by a PW
l UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by a QinQ link
UNI-UNI E-Line ServiceFigure 11-1 shows the networking diagram for the UNI-UNI E-Line service.
In City 1, Company A and Company B, connected to the PTN equipment, need communicationbetween each other. The communication requirement can be met by creating a UNI-UNI E-Lineservice.
In this case, the equipment equals a Layer 2 switch, which only exchanges data of Company Aand Company B. In the uplink direction of the user side at the two ends, complex trafficclassification can be performed for data packets, and different QoS policies can be usedaccording to the traffic classification.

In this case, each branch of Company A can exclusively use the UNI. Each physical port involvedin the E-Line service network can be exclusively used by the E-Line service. In City 1, if smallbranches in Company A need service isolation, services at the same UNI can be differentiatedthrough "port + VLANs". For a single station, in the uplink direction of the user side, complextraffic classification can be performed for data packets, and different QoS policies can be usedaccording to the traffic classification.

In City 1 and City 2, Company A and Company B have branches. Communication betweenbranches of the same company is needed, but services between the two companies need to beisolated. In this case, the communication between branches of Company A and Company B canbe realized by creating a UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by a PW. Services between the twocompanies are isolated because different services are carried by different PWs.
Hence, the company service accessed at the user side is encapsulated into a PW, and then iscarried by the Tunnel.
Different E-Line services of different companies are carried by different PWs, and then aretransmitted to the same NNI. As a result, the number of NNIs is saved, and the bandwidthutilization is increased. In the uplink direction of the user side, the hierarchical QoS can beperformed for data packets.

UNI-NNI E-Line Service Carried by a QinQ LinkIn the case of the QinQ link carrying, the packets with the C-VLAN in the user-side networkare added with an S-VLAN header of the transport network. The packets then travel through thetransport network with two VLANs. In this way, a simple L2-VPN tunnel is provided for theuser. Figure 11-4 shows the networking diagram for the UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by aQinQ link.
Both Company A and Company B have branches in City 1 and City 2. Branches of each companyneed to communicate with each other. The traffic from the two companies must be isolated. Theinternal VLANs of Company A range from 1 to 100 and the internal VLANs of Company Brange from 1 to 200. In this case, you can configure a UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by aQinQ link to meet the communication requirements. As different services are carried by QinQlinks of different values, traffic of different companies is isolated and the VLAN resources ofthe packet switch network (PSN) are also saved.
In this case, different packets accessed at the user side from different companies are added withdifferent VLANs, and then carried by the same link at the network side.
As the E-Line services of different companies are added with one VLAN and transported to thesame port, the network-side port resources are saved and the bandwidth utilization is increased.Also as only a small number of VLANs in the PSN are used, the VLAN resources of the networkare saved. To realize the QoS for the service carried by a QinQ link, configure the QinQ policy.

11.6 Configuration Case of the UNI-NNI E-Line ServiceCarried by the PW
A case is provided here to show the configuration of the UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by thePW, and the configuration flow. The configuration case covers the service planning,configuration and verification of the Ethernet service.
11.6.1 Case DescriptionThe case description covers the requirement, networking diagram and service planning.
11.6.2 Service PlanningThe Ethernet services between branches of a company are carried by a PW. When planning suchan Ethernet service, you need to plan the NE information, tunnel information, and serviceinformation.
11.6.3 Configuring the E-Line Service of the NETo configure a UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by ports is to configure the E-Line service atthe source NE and sink NE. This section describes how to configure the E-Line service.
11.6.1 Case DescriptionThe case description covers the requirement, networking diagram and service planning.
As shown in Figure 11-11, Company A and Company B have departments in City 1 and City2, which need to communicate with each other respectively. The communication of CompanyA should be isolated from that of Company B. NE1 is connected to Company A and CompanyB in City 1. NE3 is connected to Company A and Company B in City 2. NE1 accesses the servicesfrom City 1 and transmits the services to NE2. Then, NE2 transparently transmits the servicesto NE3. Finally, NE3 transmits the services to City 2. Similarly, NE3 accesses the services fromCity 2 and transmits the services to NE2. Then, NE2 transparently transmits the services to NE1.Finally, NE1 transmits the services to City 1.
For such an application, the UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by the PW should be created. TwoPWs carry the services of Company A and Company B respectively. The two PWs sharebandwidth of one tunnel.
The service between departments of Company A is the ordinary Internet access service (CIR =10 Mbit/s, PIR = 30 Mbit/s).
The service between departments of Company B is the data service (CIR = 30 Mbit/s, PIR = 50Mbit/s).

As shown in Figure 11-12, both Company A and Company B have branches in City 1 and City2. Branches of each company need to communicate with each other. The traffic from the twocompanies must be isolated. The internal VLANs of Company A range from 1 to 100 and theinternal VLANs of Company B range from 1 to 200. To isolate the traffic of the two companies,different S-VLANs are added to packets from different companies at the network side.
The branches of Company A require the common Internet access service (CIR = 10 Mbit/s, PIR= 30 Mbit/s).
The branches of Company B require the data service (CIR = 30 Mbit/s, PIR = 50 Mbit/s).

Context
The connectivity of the UNI-UNI E-Line service need no OAM verification. By default, theconfiguration is regarded as correct. In the case of the UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by a port,the OAM verification method is similar to that of the UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by PWs.
The UNI-NNI E-Line service carried by PWs is taken as an example. As shown in Figure11-13, to verify the correctness of service configuration, the Ethernet OAM should beconfigured.

12 Configuring an E-LAN Service
About This Chapter
This section describes the basic information about the E-LAN service, and uses an example todescribe how to configure an E-LAN service.
12.1 E-LAN ServiceIn topology, the E-LAN service is a multipoint-to-multipoint service. The equipment forwardsthe packets of a specific port or of specific VLANs of a specific port at the user side to multipleports at the network side, a PW or a QinQ Link at the network side. In this way, the user datacan be transparently transmitted in a multipoint-to-multipoint manner.
12.2 Configuration Flow for E-LAN ServiceThe configuration flow of the E-LAN service include creating network, configuring the QoSpolicy, configuring interfaces, configuring the control plane, configuring MPLS tunnel andconfiguring E-LAN service.
12.3 Operation Tasks for the E-LAN ServiceThe operation tasks for the E-LAN service include the creation of E-LAN services and creationof V-UNI groups.
12.4 Configuration Case of the E-LAN ServiceThis section describes a configuration example of the E-LAN service. A configuration flowdiagram is provided to describe the process of service configuration. The configuration exampleincludes the service planning and E-LAN service configuration.
12.5 Parameter DescriptionThis section describes the parameters related to the E-LAN service configuration.

12.1 E-LAN ServiceIn topology, the E-LAN service is a multipoint-to-multipoint service. The equipment forwardsthe packets of a specific port or of specific VLANs of a specific port at the user side to multipleports at the network side, a PW or a QinQ Link at the network side. In this way, the user datacan be transparently transmitted in a multipoint-to-multipoint manner.
Figure 12-1 shows the networking diagram for the E-LAN service.
The three user side networks respectively access the carrier networks through the FE. Each userside network has its own VLAN label. The user side networks require access between each other.The user side networks can communicate with each other through the configuration of the E-LAN service.
On each PE node, the accessed data is forwarded through the target MAC address or target MACaddress + VLAN. At the network side, the data is transparently transmitted to the opposite PEequipment through the created MPLS tunnel.
In this case, the entire transport network, which exchanges different data at the user sides, equalsa Layer 2 switch. In other words, the transport network is transparent to the user network. In theuplink direction of user side of each PE node, complex traffic classification can be performedfor data packets, and different QoS policies can be used according to the traffic classification.

According to the conditions of the accessed user side network, the port attributes, serviceattributes, and PW attributes of the E-LAN service can be flexibly configured to meetrequirements of different application scenarios.
At the network-side port, the service can be carried by ports, a PW or a QinQ link for transport.In the case of the QinQ link carrying, the packets with the C-VLAN in the user-side networkare added with an S-VLAN header of the transport network. The packets then travel through thetransport network with two VLANs. In this way, a simple L2-VPN tunnel is provided for theuser. To realize the QoS for the service carried by a QinQ link, configure the QinQ policy.
12.2 Configuration Flow for E-LAN ServiceThe configuration flow of the E-LAN service include creating network, configuring the QoSpolicy, configuring interfaces, configuring the control plane, configuring MPLS tunnel andconfiguring E-LAN service.

Before configuring the E-LAN service, you should complete 2 Creating Network, and 4.3Configuring Ethernet Interfaces.
Perform the following operations according to the NNI bearer type.
l In the case that the operations mentioned above are completed, when the port is set to BearerType, the E-LAN service can be configured.
l When the PW is set to Bearer Type, the MPLS tunnel need be configured. See the followingcontents according to the MPLS tunnel type.– When the static MPLS tunnel is used, the MPLS tunnel can be configured on a per-NE
basis or by using the trail function. See 6.3 Creating a Static MPLS Tunnel by Usingthe Trail Function and 6.5 Creating an MPLS Tunnel on a Per-NE Basis. When thestatic MPLS tunnel is used, 5 Configuring the Control Plane can be skipped.
– When the dynamic MPLS tunnel is used, see 6.2 Creating a Dynamic MPLS Tunneland the FRR Protection by Using the Trail Function.
l If the network side is carried by the QinQ Link, 11.3.4 Creating a QinQ Link need becomplete.
When configuring the E-LAN service, see 12.4 Configuration Case of the E-LAN Service.
12.3 Operation Tasks for the E-LAN ServiceThe operation tasks for the E-LAN service include the creation of E-LAN services and creationof V-UNI groups.
12.3.1 Creating an E-LAN ServiceOn the T2000, the E-LAN service can be created. Multiple types of E-LAN services can berealized by configuring the UNI and NNI ports. The NNI port can carry the service by using theport, PW or QinQ link.
12.3.2 Managing the BlacklistManaging the blacklist can prevent the illegal packets from the network side or user side fromattacking the equipment. Hence, the equipment can run stably in the network. Managing theblacklist includes querying the blacklist, creating the blacklist, and deleting the blacklist.
12.3.3 Setting the Broadcast Storm SuppressionThe broadcast storm suppression function can restrain the broadcast traffic on the port that carriesthe ELAN service. Hence, the bandwidth resource of the equipment can be properly used. Settingthe broadcast storm suppression function includes enabling the broadcast storm suppression andsetting the broadcast suppression threshold.
12.3.4 Creating a V-UNI GroupThe creation of the V-UNI group includes the selection of V-UNI group members and settingof overall bandwidth of V-UNI members. The overall bandwidth in the V-UNI group can berestrained by creating the V-UNI group.
12.3.1 Creating an E-LAN ServiceOn the T2000, the E-LAN service can be created. Multiple types of E-LAN services can berealized by configuring the UNI and NNI ports. The NNI port can carry the service by using theport, PW or QinQ link.

14.1 Basic ConceptsThis section describes the three offload solutions, that is, ATM-based solution, ETH-basedsolution, and IP-based solution. In addition, this section covers the packet encapsulation formatand signal flow.
Offload SolutionIn the mobile backhaul domain, there is one application scenario called offload. In the case ofoffload, the base station shunts the accessed service flow. The traditional audio service, such asthe 2G or 3G R99 CS service, is transported over the E1 private line. In this way, high QoS, lowdelay, and high reliability are achieved. In the case of the packet service that requires highbandwidth but no delay guarantee, such as the high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA)service, the ADSL-based mode is adopted for backhaul. For example, the ADSL wholesalemanaged service (WMS) is applicable. The ADSL network provides high bandwidth and costslittle. Hence, the ADSL network is well applicable to the packet service such as the HSDPAservice.
Generally, the PDH/SDH microwave is used or the TDM E1 private line is leased from the fixednetwork operator to transmit the backhaul service between the base station and base stationcontroller (BSC). This is the reason why the Offload solution is adopted. With servicedevelopment, the base station backhaul requires increasing bandwidth and the traditional audioservice takes a decreasing proportion. In this case, it is not economical to lease more E1 linksto increase the backhaul bandwidth, because the E1 links cost much.
The offload solution is applicable to transmission of the ATM services, CES services, andEthernet services.
Figure 14-1 shows a typical scenario where the offload solution is applied. Node B connects tothe OptiX PTN 1900 through the ATM IMA interface. The IMA E1 module of the OptiX PTN1900 accesses the services and distinguishes various service flows according to the VPI/VCIvalues carried by the packets.
l In the case of the HSDPA service flow, the OptiX PTN 1900 emulates the ATM PWE3 forthe service flow on the access side and then encapsulates the emulated service into thetunnel as required by the WMS network. Finally, the OptiX PTN 1900 transports the serviceto the ADSL modem through the FE interface. When the encapsulated service enters theADSL network, the service is transported to the OptiX PTN 3900. Then, the OptiX PTN3900 decapsulates the service and transports the service to the radio network controller(RNC).
l The OptiX PTN 1900 at the access station transports the signaling flow and R99 serviceflow in the form of IMA E1 to the OptiX PTN 3900 at the convergence station.

In the application scenario for IP-based forward services, the WMS works as an IP switchnetwork. The OptiX PTN 1900 encapsulates the ATM packets into Ethernet packets. Then, theADSL modem performs the AAL5 adaptation and ATM encapsulation. Finally, the DSLAMterminates the ADSL and ATM, and forwards (Layer 3) the packets to the OptiX PTN 3900.The OptiX PTN 3900 receives Ethernet packets and decapsulates the Ethernet packets to obtainATM packets. In this scenario, an IP/GRE tunnel should be set up between the OptiX PTN 1900and OptiX PTN 3900 to carry the PW.
In this figure, IP in the packet encapsulation format indicates that the packets are carried by theIP tunnel. In the case of PW carrying over the GRE tunnel, IP is replaced with GRE.

14.3.1 Case DescriptionThis section describes the offload solution to the wholesale ADSL network, which is forwardedaccording to the ATM.
Networking and RequirementTwo Node Bs are accessed through two IMA groups of the OptiX PTN 1900, and the two NodeBs communicate with the RNC connected to the OptiX PTN 3900 at the opposite end throughthe network. Services of Node B include the R99 voice service and high speed downlink packetaccess (HSDPA) service. The voice service, which is carried by the backhaul networkconstructed by the OptiX PTN equipment, requires QoS guarantee, low delay and bandwidthguarantee. The HSDPA service does not require low delay, but it only requires bandwidthguarantee. Hence, the ATM network of a third party operator is leased.
The OptiX PTN 1900 differentiates services according to the VPI and VCI values, and thendistributes the services to two different routes for transmission.
l HSDPA service: The HSDPA service is converged to the DSLAM equipment through theADSL modem, and then it enters the leased ATM network of the third party operator fortransmission. The HSDPA service requires only bandwidth guarantee, and thus the leasecost is low.
l R99 voice service: The R99 voice service is transported through the backhaul network. Theequipment in the network is the OptiX PTN equipment series. The R99 voice servicerequires QoS guarantee, low delay and bandwidth guarantee.
Figure 14-8 shows the networking diagram.
l HSDPA service: On the OptiX PTN 1900, perform the VPI/VCI switching on the servicewith a VPI/VCI value of 1/101, and then transport the service to the FE interface of theETFC. After added with a new VPI/VCI through the ADSL modem, the service istransported to the OptiX PTN 3900 through the ATM network. The OptiX PTN 3900rearranges the service and then converges the service to the ATM STM-1 interface. Then,the service is transported to RNC. MPLS Tunnel 1 is set up between the OptiX PTN 1900and OptiX PTN 3900 for carrying the service. Figure 14-8 shows the encapsulation formatof packets at the interface of each equipment. The red lines indicate the VPI/VCI values atATM layers in the packets.
l R99 voice service: On the OptiX PTN 1900, perform the VPI/VCI switching on the servicewith a VPI/VCI value of 1/100, and then transport the service to the POS interface of thePOD41. The service is carried by MPLS Tunnel 2, and then is transported to the OptiXPTN 3900. The OptiX PTN 3900 rearranges the service and then converges the service tothe ATM STM-1 interface. Then, the service is transported to RNC.

The ADSL modem can work in the bridge or router mode.
l When the ADSL modem works in the bridge mode, the ADSL modem performs the EoAencapsulation on the accessed FE signals. The access node uses the MPLS tunnel or IPtunnel.
l When the ADSL modem works in the router mode, the ADSL modem performs the IPoAencapsulation on the accessed FE signals. The access node uses the IP tunnel or GRE tunnel.
In this example, the OptiX PTN 1900 uses the MPLS tunnel, and the ADSL modem works inthe bridge mode. If the ADSL modem works in the router mode, the configuration method isthe same. The difference is that the IP tunnel or GRE tunnel, instead of the MPLS tunnel, is usedto carry the HSDPA service.
NOTE
The ASD1 supports four AAL5 encapsulation types, that is, LLC bridge, LLC route, VCMUX bridge andVCMUX route. In the actual application, the encapsulation type should be consistent with the workingmode of the ADSL Modem.
Service PlanningThe offload is a solution instead of a service or feature. Hence, according to the user requirementand networking diagram of this example, this example uses the offload solution to perform thefollowing tasks.

1. Configure the member interfaces and create the IMA group.On the OptiX PTN 1900, create two IMA groups for accessing the IMA services of twoNode Bs.
2. Create the Ethernet virtual interface.On the OptiX PTN 3900, set the interface of the ASD1 to the Ethernet virtual interface, setthe port mode to Layer 3. In addition, the setting of the AAL5 encapsulation type shouldbe consistent with the working mode of the ADSL modem. After the Ethernet virtualinterface is created, the ATM interface of the ASD1 can be carried in the tunnel on thenetwork side.
3. Create MPLS tunnel 1.This tunnel is used for carrying the HSDPA service. Normally, the static MPLS tunnel iscreated on the OptiX PTN 1900 and OptiX PTN 3900, because the network is a leasednetwork of the third party operator.
4. Create MPLS tunnel 2.This tunnel is used for carrying the R99 voice service, which resides on the POS interfacesof the OptiX PTN 1900 and OptiX PTN 3900.
5. Create the ATM policy (CBR and UBR).Create the ATM policy before creating the ATM service. On the OptiX PTN 1900 andOptiX PTN 3900, create two ATM policies respectively. CBR is used for the R99 voiceservice, and UBR is used for the HSDPA service.
6. Create the ATM service.l On the OptiX PTN 1900, create two ATM services, and access the services of Node B.
l On the OptiX PTN 3900, create two ATM services, and access the services of RNC.
7. Create the ATM connection.l On the OptiX PTN 1900, create two ATM connections in each ATM service, and
encapsulate the services to different PWs according to the VPI/VCI value, and selectdifferent MPLS tunnels for carrying the services.
l On the OptiX PTN 3900, create two ATM connections in each ATM service, andencapsulate the services to different PWs according to the VPI/VCI value, and selectdifferent MPLS tunnels for carrying the services.
NOTE
In the leased network of the third party operator, the services are configured by the third party operator.

14.4.1 Case DescriptionThis section describes the offload solution to the wholesale ADSL network, which is forwardedaccording to the ETH.
Networking and RequirementTwo Node Bs are accessed through two IMA groups of the OptiX PTN 1900, and the two NodeBs communicate with the RNC connected to the OptiX PTN 3900 at the opposite end throughthe network. Services of Node B include the R99 voice service and high speed downlink packetaccess (HSDPA) service. The voice service, which is carried by the backhaul networkconstructed by the OptiX PTN equipment, requires QoS guarantee, low delay and bandwidthguarantee. The HSDPA service does not require low delay, but it only requires bandwidthguarantee. Hence, the Layer 2 switching network of a third party operator is leased.
The OptiX PTN 1900 differentiates services according to the VPI and VCI values, and thendistributes the services to two different routes for transmission.
l HSDPA service: The HSDPA service is converged to the DSLAM equipment through theADSL modem, and then it enters the leased ETH network of the third party operator fortransmission. The HSDPA service requires only bandwidth guarantee, and thus the leasecost is low.
l R99 voice service: The R99 voice service is transported through the backhaul network. Theequipment in the network is the OptiX PTN equipment series. The R99 voice servicerequires QoS guarantee, low delay and bandwidth guarantee.
Figure 14-9 shows the networking diagram.
l HSDPA service: On the OptiX PTN 1900, perform the VPI/VCI switching on the servicewith a VPI/VCI value of 1/101, and then transport the service to the FE interface of theETFC. The ADSL modem completes the AAL5 adaptation and ATM encapsulation, andthe DSLAM removes the ADSL and ATM layers. Then, the Ethernet packets are sent tothe ETH switching network. The ETH switching network sends the service to the OptiXPTN 3900. The OptiX PTN 3900 rearranges the service and then converges the service tothe ATM STM-1 interface. Then, the service is transported to RNC. MPLS Tunnel 1 is setup between the OptiX PTN 1900 and OptiX PTN 3900 for carrying the service. Figure14-9 shows the encapsulation format of packets at the interface of each equipment. The redlines indicate the VPI/VCI values at ATM layers in the packets.
l R99 voice service: On the OptiX PTN 1900, perform the VPI/VCI switching on the servicewith a VPI/VCI value of 1/100, and then transport the service to the POS interface of thePOD41. The service is carried by MPLS Tunnel 2, and then is transported to the OptiXPTN 3900. The OptiX PTN 3900 rearranges the service and then converges the service tothe ATM STM-1 interface. Then, the service is transported to RNC.

The ADSL modem can work in the bridge or router mode.
l When the ADSL modem works in the bridge mode, the ADSL modem performs the EoAencapsulation on the accessed FE signals. The OptiX PTN 1900 on the access node usesthe MPLS Tunnel or IP Tunnel.
l When the ADSL modem works in the router mode, the ADSL modem performs the IPoAencapsulation on the accessed FE signals. The OptiX PTN 1900 at the access node uses theIP Tunnel or GRE Tunnel.
In this example, the OptiX PTN 1900 uses the MPLS Tunnel, and the ADSL modem works inthe bridge mode. If the ADSL modem works in the router mode, the configuration method isthe same. The difference is that the IP Tunnel or GRE Tunnel, instead of the MPLS Tunnel, isused to carry the HSDPA service. When the IP Tunnel or GRE Tunnel is used, you shouldconfigure the static route and static ARP on the OptiX PTN 1900 and OptiX PTN 3900. If theequipment cannot dynamically obtain the ARP, the static ARP still needs to be configured.
Service PlanningThe offload is a solution instead of a service or feature. Hence, according to the user requirementand networking diagram of this example, this example uses the offload solution to perform thefollowing tasks.

1. Create the IMA group and configure the member interfaces.On the OptiX PTN 1900, create two IMA groups for accessing the IMA services of twoNode Bs.
2. Configure attributes of the NNI.After the NNI is configured, you can create the MPLS Tunnel on the OptiX PTN 1900 andOptiX PTN 3900.
3. Configure the control plane.l Before creating a dynamic tunnel, configure the IS-IS protocol and set the parameters
related to the RSPF protocol.l To create a dynamic tunnel, you need to configure a static ARP.
After the static ARP is configured, the equipment finds the corresponding MAC addressin the ARP table entry according to the destination IP address, and then writes the MACaddress as the destination MAC to the ETH layer of the packet. The Layer 2 switchingnetwork forwards the packet to the destination according to this MAC address. StaticMPLS Tunnel 1 should use this table entry.
4. Create MPLS tunnel 1.This tunnel is used for carrying the HSDPA service. Normally, the static MPLS tunnel iscreated on the OptiX PTN 1900 and OptiX PTN 3900, because the network is a leasednetwork of the third party operator.
5. Create MPLS Tunnel 2.This tunnel is used for carrying the R99 voice service, which resides on the POS interfacesof the OptiX PTN 1900 and OptiX PTN 3900.
6. Create the QoS policy (CBR and UBR).Create the ATM policy before creating the ATM service. On the OptiX PTN 1900 andOptiX PTN 3900, create two ATM policies respectively. CBR is used for the R99 voiceservice, and UBR is used for the HSDPA service.
7. Create the ATM service.l On the OptiX PTN 1900, create two ATM services, and access the services of Node B.
l On the OptiX PTN 3900, create two ATM services, and access the services of RNC.
8. Create the ATM connection.l On the OptiX PTN 1900, create two ATM connections in each ATM service, and
encapsulate the services to different PWs according to the VPI/VCI value, and selectdifferent MPLS Tunnels for carrying the services.
l On the OptiX PTN 3900, create two ATM connections in each ATM service, andencapsulate the services to different PWs according to the VPI/VCI value, and selectdifferent MPLS Tunnels for carrying the services.
NOTE
In the leased network of the third party operator, the services are configured by the third party operator.
The parameter planning is as follows:

14.5.1 Case DescriptionThis section describes the offload solution to the wholesale ADSL network, which is forwardedaccording to the IP.
14.5.2 Configuration ProcessThis section describes the configuration process of the Offload application in an IP-forwarding-based network.
14.5.1 Case DescriptionThis section describes the offload solution to the wholesale ADSL network, which is forwardedaccording to the IP.
Networking and RequirementTwo Node Bs are accessed through two IMA groups of the OptiX PTN 1900, and the two NodeBs communicate with the RNC connected to the OptiX PTN 3900 at the opposite end throughthe network. Services of Node B include the R99 voice service and high speed downlink packetaccess (HSDPA) service. The voice service, which is carried by the backhaul networkconstructed by the OptiX PTN equipment, requires QoS guarantee, low delay and bandwidthguarantee. The HSDPA service does not require low delay, but it only requires bandwidthguarantee. Hence, the IP network of a third party operator is leased.
The OptiX PTN 1900 differentiates services according to the VPI and VCI values, and thendistributes the services to two different routes for transmission.
l HSDPA service: The HSDPA service is converged to the DSLAM equipment through theADSL modem, and then it enters the leased IP network of the third party operator fortransmission. The HSDPA service requires only bandwidth guarantee, and thus the leasecost is low.
l R99 voice service: The R99 voice service is transported through the backhaul network. Theequipment in the network is the OptiX PTN equipment series. The R99 voice servicerequires QoS guarantee, low delay and bandwidth guarantee.
Figure 14-10 shows the networking diagram.

l HSDPA service: On the OptiX PTN 1900, perform the VPI/VCI switching on the servicewith a VPI/VCI value of 1/101, and then transport the service to the FE interface of theETFC. The ADSL modem completes the AAL5 adaptation and ATM encapsulation, andthe DSLAM removes the ADSL and ATM layers. Then, the Ethernet packets are sent tothe IP switching network. The OptiX PTN 3900 rearranges the service and then convergesthe service to the ATM STM-1 interface. Then, the service is transported to RNC. IP Tunnel1 is set up between the OptiX PTN 1900 and OptiX PTN 3900 for carrying the service.Figure 14-10 shows the encapsulation format of packets at the interface of each equipment.The red lines indicate the VPI/VCI values at ATM layers in the packets.
l R99 voice service: On the OptiX PTN 1900, perform the VPI/VCI switching on the servicewith a VPI/VCI value of 1/100, and then transport the service to the POS interface of thePOD41. The service is carried by MPLS Tunnel 2, and then is transported to the OptiXPTN 3900. The OptiX PTN 3900 rearranges the service and then converges the service tothe ATM STM-1 interface. Then, the service is transported to RNC.

The ADSL modem can work in the bridge or router mode.
l When the ADSL modem works in the bridge mode, the ADSL modem performs the EoAencapsulation on the accessed FE signals. The OptiX PTN 1900 on the access node usesthe MPLS Tunnel or IP Tunnel.

l When the ADSL modem works in the router mode, the ADSL modem performs the IPoAencapsulation on the accessed FE signals. The OptiX PTN 1900 at the access node uses theIP Tunnel or GRE Tunnel.
In this example, the OptiX PTN 1900 uses the MPLS Tunnel, and the ADSL modem works inthe bridge mode. If the ADSL modem works in the router mode, the configuration method isthe same. In this case, the GRE Tunnel is created to carry the HSDPA service.
Service Planning
The offload is a solution instead of a service or feature. Hence, according to the user requirementand networking diagram of this example, this example uses the offload solution to perform thefollowing tasks.
1. Create the IMA group and configure the member interfaces.
On the OptiX PTN 1900, create two IMA groups for accessing the IMA services of twoNode Bs.
2. Configure attributes of the interface.
The attributes of the interface carry the tunnel should be configured on the OptiX PTN1900 and OptiX PTN 3900.
3. Create the static route.
Create the static route on the OptiX PTN 1900 and OptiX PTN 3900. The static route isused for creating the IP Tunnel.
4. Create the static ARP table entry.
After the static ARP is configured, the equipment finds the corresponding MAC addressin the ARP table entry according to the destination IP address, and then writes the MACaddress as the destination MAC to the ETH layer of the packet. The Layer 2 switchingnetwork forwards the packet to the destination according to this MAC address. Static MPLSTunnel should use this table entry.
5. Create IP Tunnel 1.
This tunnel is used for carrying the HSDPA service. The ports where the tunnel resides arethe FE interface of the OptiX PTN 1900 and the GE interface of the OptiX PTN 3900.
6. Create MPLS Tunnel 2.
This tunnel is used for carrying the R99 voice service, which resides on the POS interfacesof the OptiX PTN 1900 and OptiX PTN 3900.
7. Create the QoS policy (CBR and UBR).
Create the ATM policy before creating the ATM service. On the OptiX PTN 1900 andOptiX PTN 3900, create two ATM policies respectively. CBR is used for the R99 voiceservice, and UBR is used for the HSDPA service.
8. Create the ATM service.
l On the OptiX PTN 1900, create two ATM services, and access the services of Node B.
l On the OptiX PTN 3900, create two ATM services, and access the services of RNC.
9. Create the ATM connection.
l On the OptiX PTN 1900, create two ATM connections in each ATM service, andencapsulate the services to different PWs according to the VPI/VCI value, and selectdifferent Tunnel for carrying the services.

16, 32 32 Bit
Configuration GuidelinesThe length of the CRC character is set according to the size of the test block.
To ensure that 99.998% of the possible errors can be detected, the 16-bit CRC checks all thesingle-bit and two-bit errors. It is determined that this level is effective for data blocktransmission of 4 kbytes or smaller. In the case of transmission of bigger data blocks, the 32-bitCRC is applicable. In the Ethernet and token ring networks, the 32-bit CRC is applicable.
Related InformationThe CRC is a method of checking errors in the transmission data of the communication line. Ifthe transmission equipment adds a 16-bit or 32-bit polynomial, which is the CRC added in thedata block during the transmission. The receive terminal adds the same polynomial to the data,and then compare the result with the result of the polynomial added to the transmissionequipment. If the two results are consistent, it indicates that the data is successfully received. Ifnot, the transmit end sends the data block again.

Issue 06 (2009-06-01)
Configuration Guidelines
To process different service packets accordingly (make ACL for packets, apply differentscheduling priorities or discard polices), perform traffic classification for the packets accordingto the varied feature values of packets. The feature value that can distinguish the packetsaccording to requirements is adopted to classify the packets.
For example, user A and user B access to a port. The PTN network should provide services ofdifferent QoS for the two users. Hence, the packets of user A and user B should be distinguishedat the port.
The analysis shows the following:
In the case of the service packets of user A, the prefix of the source IP address is 192.168.1.0and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
In the case of the service packets of user B, the prefix of the source IP address is 192.168.2.0and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
The packets of user A can be distinguished from the packets of user B according to the sourceIP address. Hence, two traffic classification rules should be set at the port.
[Source IP : 192.168.1.0 : 0.0.0.255]
[Source IP : 192.168.2.0 : 0.0.0.255]

C.143 Service Type (ATM Policy)
Description
The service types are described as follows:
Constant bit rate (CBR)
In the case of the user end, also service applicant, the CBR service is extremely sensitive to thedelay variation of the service data stream, and requires that the data should be transmitted at aconstant rate. In the case of the network side, also service provider, certain static bandwidthshould be always available for the CBR service in consecutive periods, and the highest priorityshould be provided to the CBR service. The main feature of the CBR service lies in the stabilityof the service data stream. The user end transmits data with a regular period. Hence, the serviceburst seldom occurs. The circuit emulation and audio services are typical application cases.When applying for the CBR service from the network side, the user should provide the peak cellrate (PCR) parameter.
Real-time variable bit rate (RT-VBR)
The RT-VBR service is extremely sensitive to the delay and delay variation. The audio serviceand video exchange service are typical application cases. This is similar to the CBR service. TheRT-VBR service, however, can tolerate certain service burst. The data rate at the source can bedifferent in different periods. In addition, the service provider does not allocate any staticbandwidth for the RT-VBR service, but adopts the multi-path multiplexing mode. Whenapplying for the RT-VBR service from the service provider, the user should provide the PCR,sustainable cell rate (SCR), and maximum burst size (MBS) parameters.
Non-real-time variable bit rate (NRT-VBR)
Compared with the RT-VBR service, the NRT-VBR service does not require the real-timefeature. In the case of the NRT-VBR service, the service data is processed at the network endwith a lower priority than that for the RT-VBR service. The NRT-VBR service is similar to theRT-VBR service with respect to burst, statistics multiplexing and service parameters.
Unspecified bit rate (UBR)
The UBR service is also applicable to the scenario where there are high requirements for thereal-time feature and there is much service burst. The services as the FTP and E-mail are typicalapplication cases of the UBR. The UBR service, however, only requires that the network sideprovides the service with the best effort. When applying for the UBR service, the user need notspecify any QoS parameter. The network side does not provide any ensured QoS for the UBRservice. In the case of network congestion, the UBR cells are discarded first.
Impact on the System
In the case of the CBR/RT-VBR/NRT-VBR service, the system allocates the switchingbandwidth specified by the PCR parameter.
In the case of the UBR service, the system does not ensure the service transmission when networkcongestion occurs. The bandwidth for the UBR service may be preempted by the service of ahigher priority.

Values
Value Range Default Value
CBR,,RT-VBR, NRT-VBR, UBR UBR
The traffic descriptor type and traffic parameter vary with the service type.
Configuration Guidelines
The service of a constant bit rate, such as the audio service, requires the real-time feature, lowdelay and low jitter. In the case of such a service, apply the CBR service, which has the highestpriority for transport in the network.
The service of a variable bit rate, such as the video service, requires the real-time feature andlow delay. In the case of such a service, apply the RT-VBR service, which has the second highestpriority for transport in the network.
The service, such as the file transfer service, does not require the real-time feature. In the caseof such a service, apply the NRT-VBR service, which has the priority lower than the priority ofthe RT-VBR service but higher than the priority of the UBR service for transport in the network.The NRT-VBR service can ensure the transport based on the SCR bandwidth.
The data service, such as the Internet access service, requires the best-effort transport. In thecase of such a service, apply the UBR service, which has the lowest priority for transport in thenetwork. When the network congestion occurs, the UBR service is discarded first.

cannot be achieved on certain conditions. Especially when the VPI/VCI bit number of certainATM port is set as 12/16, the count is extremely small.
Configuration GuidelinesThe count (VCX) of VPIs that support the VC switching depends on the values of the maximumnumber of VPI bits and maximum number of VCI bits. For example, if the number of VPI bitsis set to 5, the maximum number of VCX is 32. In addition, due to the limited sub-board hardwareresources, the VCX value is converse to the maximum number of VCI bits.
Relationship with Other ParametersEach sub-board has certain hardware resources, which are shared by all the ATM ports on thesub-board. The count of VPIs (VCX) that support the VC switching is affected by the VPI andVCI values on this ATM port, and also the values on other ATM ports. The VCX varies inverselyto the maximum number of VCI bits. The number of VCX x VCI varies directly to the sub-boardhardware resources on the equipment. In addition, do not change this parameter when the sub-board carries services.

C.161 Max. VCI Bits
DescriptionThe virtual channel identifier (VCI) identifies the virtual channels of a virtual path. The VCIand the virtual path identifier (VPI) identify a virtual connection. The VCI uses 16 bits of theATM header. Due to the limitation of the hardware resources, the maximum VCI bits cannot beachieved at the same time for every ATM port. Hence, before configuring a service, set themaximum VCI bits for each ATM port. If the maximum number of VCI bits is set to 16, themaximum value of the VCI is 65535 (216-1).
Impact on the SystemThis parameter affects the value range of the VCI for setting up a connection. For example, ifthe maximum number of VCI bits of an ATM port is 8, the VCI value should be 255 or less forcreation of a connection on the ATM port. In addition, if a sub-board on the equipment carriesservices, do not change this parameter for any ATM port on the sub-board.
ValuesValue Range Default Value
0-16 7
Configuration GuidelinesThe VCIs in each VPI are independent from each other. The VCI value ranges from 32 to2MaxVCIbits-1. The VCI value less than 32 is for exclusive use of the network management, and

cannot be used by the user cells. In the case of the OptiX PTN 1900&3900, set the VCI valueto 0xFFFFFFFF (invalid value) during creation of the VP connection.
Relationship with Other ParametersAs the hardware resources of each sub-board are limited, all ATM ports on the sub-board sharethe hardware resources. The valid value for the maximum VCI bits of an ATM port on the sub-board is affected by the values of other ATM ports on the sub-board. In addition, do not changethis parameter when the sub-board carries services.
Related InformationNone.
C.162 Max. VPI Bits
DescriptionThe virtual path identifier (VPI) identifies the virtual path in the VPC/VCC connection. In thecase of the NNI cell format, the VPI takes 12 bits of the ATM cell header. In the case of the UNIcell format, the VPI takes 8 bits of the ATM cell header. Due to the limitation of the hardwareresources, the maximum VPI bits cannot be achieved at the same time for every ATM port.Hence, before configuring a service, set the maximum VPI bits for each ATM port. If themaximum number of VPI bits is set to 12, the maximum value of the VPI is 4095 (212 - 1).
Impact on the SystemThis parameter affects the value range of the VPI for creation of a connection. For example, ifthe maximum number of VPI bits of an ATM port is 8, the VPI value should be 255 or less forcreation of a connection on the ATM port. In addition, if a sub-board on the equipment carriesservices, do not change this parameter for any ATM port on the sub-board.

C.166 MBS (Cells)
DescriptionThe MBS (2-200000 Cells) parameter indicates the maximum number of burst cells of the VBRservice that can be continually transported at the PCR higher than SCR, and do not lose packets.
Impact on the SystemAs the value of this parameter increases, the depth of the primary leaky bucket for the ATMconnection becomes deeper and thus the primary leaky bucket can tolerate more burst cells.
Values2-200000 cells
Value Range Default Value Unit
2-200000 None. Cell
Configuration GuidelinesTo reduce the loss of packets of the VBR service to the minimum, set the MBS to a proper largevalue.
Relationship with Other ParametersSet the MBS only for the RT-VBR/NRT-VBR service.
Related InformationThe formula for computing the burst tolerance (BT) of the primary leaky bucket is BT = (MBS- 1)(1/SCR - 1/PCR) + CDVT. The MBS varies directly to the BT of the primary leaky bucket.If MBS consecutive cells of the ATM traffic burst at the PCR, the overall burst time is (MBS -1)(1/SCR - 1/PCR).
