Ch a p t e r 1
Traditional SDH Service
Networking Configuration

This chapter describes the configuration flow of establishing a transmission
network with ZXONM E300. In addition, an example of SDH service
networking is included to describe the operation steps and methods.
Configuration Flow
The networking configuration with ZXONM E300 has two typical flows
according to the NEs online or offline statuses.
Note:
Online status indicates that the NE configuration commands are sent at real-
time to the NCP board, and are forwarded to the corresponding board by NCP
board.
Offline status indicates that the NE configuration commands are only saved in
the EMS database and are not sent to the NCP board, since the NE is offline.
Networking flow of online NEs
The networking flow of online NEs is listed in Table 4.

Note: Some other configurations may need to be performed in the EMS
according to actual networking requirement and equipment type:
If the network needs MS protection, configure MS protection before configuring
timeslots.
If the network needs Ethernet or ATM service, configure them. For detailed
configuration, refer to Chapter 3 and Chapter 4.
If the equipment has special requirement for configuration, e.g. ZXMP S330
needs 1:N protection for boards, make corresponding configurations in EMS via
selecting Maintenance -> Diagnosis -> Setting 1:N Card Switching.
If EMS manages the transmission equipment by Data Communication Network
(DCN), the gateway NE can be employed to establish the communication
relationship between EMS and the managed equipment. For detailed operations,
refer to Configure Gateway NE in Chapter 5.

Chapter 1 - Traditional SDH Service Networking Configuration
Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 5
Configuration Example
In this section, you will learn about the configuration of traditional SDH
services with a networking example for offline NEs.
Networking Configuration
Suppose there are six NEs: A, B, C, D, E and F. The network consisting of
them is illustrated in Figure 1.
FI GURE 1 NETWORK I NG DI AGRAM

Service requirements are listed as follows:
As the access network element and network head, NE A is accessed to
the EMS terminal (ZXONM E300), providing the clock for the whole
network.
Traffic assignments:
Between NE A and NE B: eight STM-1 optical signal services
Between NE A and NE C: eight STM-1 optical signal services
Between NE A and NE D: eight STM-1 optical signal services
Between NE E and NE F: fifty 2 M bidirectional services
Orderwire phone is needed among all the NEs;
NE A, B, C and D form a two-fiber bidirectional MS protection ring;
NE D and E form a four-fiber 1+1 MS protection link.

Ethernet Service
Configuration

This chapter introduces the configuration flow of ZXONM E300 for the
transmission of Ethernet services through SDH equipment. In addition, the
detailed configuration procedures of VLAN services are described, based
on a network example composed of ZXMP S320 equipment with SFE4
boards.
Configuration of Ethernet Service
Transparent Transmission
The transparent transmission of Ethernet service is performed by the
transparent transmission Ethernet boards. These boards provide paths for
point-to-point transparent transmission, and bind user ports with VCG
(EOS) ports (i.e. system ports) in a one-to-one way. Data frames are only
forwarded between the user port and the VCG port bound together.
The equipment and boards that support transparent transmission of
Ethernet service are described in Table 29.

TFE board of ZXMP S200 is responsible for managing the Ethernet function
of physical board SMB and the Ethernet plug-in boards. The physical board
SMB can process 8 Ethernet services which can be performed by 4x10/100
M transparent transmission Ethernet electrical ports on the SMB board and
another 4 Ethernet ports on SEC board, TFEX4 board or TFEX4B board.
Among these boards,
The SEC provides 4x10/100 M Ethernet electrical ports (layer 2 switching
supported). TFEx4 provides 4 10/100 M transparent transmission Ethernet
electrical ports. TFEx4B provides 4 100 M transparent transmission
Ethernet optical ports.

10/100 M Ethernet optical interfaces and 10/100 M Ethernet electrical
interfaces. In EMS, these two kinds of Ethernet interfaces have identified
software and hardware version, where 0310 represents for SFE electrical
interface board, and 1310 represents for SFE optical interface board.
The system ports of SFE/SGE series boards adopt the TU12 virtual
concatenation. Each system port has the minimum granularity of 2 M and
the maximum granularity of 100 M.
The SFE/SGE series boards are not produced these days.

LCAS Config
LCAS refers to the Link Capacity
Adjustment Scheme. When the
user bandwidth changes, LCAS can
adjust the number of VC paths in a
virtual concatenation group to
prevent traffic interruption or only
cause transient interruption.
When the LCAS is enabled, if a VC
in a path group fails, the system
will automatically delete the invalid
VC, and the remaining normal VCs
can keep transmitting traffic.
When the invalid VC recovers, the
system will add the VC into the
virtual concatenation group.
The LCAS function is
recommended for system
ports.

Items Descriptions Remarks
Default
Mode
The port forwards data packets by searching
the MAC address table, thus implements the
arbitrary switching between user ports and
system ports.
Enabling two or more
ports in this mode on a
board may result in
broadcast storm, and
finally result in traffic
failure
Transp
arent
Mode
The MAC address and VLAN are shielded.
The point-to-point transparent transmission
path is provided. Data frames can be
forwarded only between the user port and
the system port that are bound to each
other.
It is similar to the
transparent
transmission by
physical channel,
and can
transparently
transmit various
protocol frames
including 802.1x
frames.
If a board employs
the transparent
mode, the VLAN
mode configuration
of the user port
becomes invalid.
VLAN
Mode
Data frames are forwarded by the assigned
VLAN and by searching the MAC address
table. Traffic between different VLANs is
blocked for the sake of isolation and security.
It can ensure the traffic
security. However, when
the traffic contains a
large number of VLANs,
each VLAN needs to be
configured
independently, which
requires a lot of work.
Virtual
Channe
l Mode
Functions which are similar with
those of VLAN mode:
The frame is transferred by identifying
VLAN and MAC address. The services
among different VLANs can not inter-
communicate, which guarantee the
security and insulation of the service.
Functions which are not similar with
those of VLAN mode:
Virtual channel mode provides a
different way to process the frame.
Under the virtual channel mode, no
matter whether the frame received at
the port carry or not carry VLAN ID, the
board will add a layer of VLAN (that is
QinQ) to the frame; Under the trunk
mode, the frame received at the port
should carry VLAN ID, moreover, the
VLAN ID must be consistent with the
VLAN ID of the port, otherwise, the
frame will be filtrated.

TPID under the virtual
channel mode is 0x88A

QoS Config Set the QoS state of each port to
Absolutely Priority or None.
Absolutely Priority: QoS
function is enabled at the
port. When the shared
bandwidth of services is
insufficient, the system shall
guarantee the QoS by
sending service with higher
priority and meanwhile
trying the best to send
service with lower priority.
None: QoS function is
disabled at the port.
If the flow control has been
enabled at a port, the QoS
setting of this port is
invalid.
For a port employing the
access mode or TLS mode,
the bigger the QoS PRI
is, the higher priority does
the corresponding service
have.
Generally, if the QoS is set
to Absolutely Priority, it
shall cooperate with the
speed limit type of
Port+802.1Q and the
limit orient of Entrance
which shall be configured
in the Speed Limit page.
Trunk
Configuratio
n
The trunk function refers to
binding multiple Ethernet
physical ports to one logical
port so as to increase the
bandwidth capacity of the
link, evenly distribute data
into multiple physical links,
and protect links using
redundant routes.
All the ports in a Trunk
group should have identical
port type. The number of
ports can be 2, 4, or 8. And
the selected ports must be
adjacent.
The board will report
configuration failure in the EMS
if the configuration is incorrect.
Loop Check
Choose if to enable the loopback
check function of the VCG (EOS)
port. If the loopback check
function is enabled:
Upon detection of loopback
in SDH path, the related
VCG (EOS) port will be
automatically disabled so as
to prevent data service
broadcast storm caused by
VCG loopback.
When the loopback is
cancelled, the related VCG

The RPR traffic is classified into three types depending on the QoS:
type A, B, and C, with priorities of A>B>C.
Type A
Auxiliary parameters: Max BW and Reserved BW, where BW
refers to bandwidth.
The traffic of type A shares the reserved bandwidth in RPR ring.
Even in case of idleness, this bandwidth cannot be occupied by
traffic of other types. If type A traffic exceeds the upper limit of the
bandwidth, all of them will be discarded. It is not controlled by the
fairness algorithm, and has invariable rates. The delay and jitter
effect on them is the minimum.
It is applicable to analog Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) traffic.
Type B
Auxiliary parameters: Max BW and Min BW, where BW refers to
bandwidth.
Type B traffic is classified into B-type CIR traffic and B-type EIR
traffic.
The B-type CIR traffic occupies guaranteed bandwidth and are not
controlled by the fairness algorithm. When the bandwidth is idle, it
can be occupied by other traffic.
The B-type EIR traffic occupies bandwidth between the limited
bandwidth and the guaranteed bandwidth, which can be shared
with other nodes, and it is controlled by the fairness algorithm.
It is applicable to traffic which is insensitive to delay but requires
bandwidth guarantee. For example, some data traffic with high
requirement can occupy more bandwidth when there is some
available idle bandwidth.
Type C
Auxiliary paramesters: Max BW, where BW refers to bandwidth.
The traffic of type C is processed in an attempt, which has no
bandwidth guarantee and is controlled by the fairness algorithm.
When the traffic exceeds the bandwidth limit, it will be discarded
completely. It has the maximum delay and jitter.
It is applicable to data services with lower requirements.

Note: One VLAN can only have one traffic type, and different VLANs can
have identical traffic type.

The two SPAN ports should be connected to two optical line boards
respectively.

Note:
The VC4 paths occupied by two RPR SPAN ports should respectively connect
with two optical line boards.
If the rate of RPR ring network is 622 Mbit/s, i.e. the rate of path group at RPR
SPAN port is 622 Mbit/s, the AU4 path of the abutting optical line board should be
configured with AU4-4C real concatenation.

In the client operation window, select a passed-by site and click the
menu item Device Config -> SDH Management -> Service Config.
In the Service Config dialog box, establish the pass-through

Note: If the rate of path group at RPR SPAN port is 622 Mbit/s, the AU4
paths of the passed-by optical line boards should be configured with AU4-4C real
concatenation.

Configuring RSEB-RPR Board
When the RPR technology is adopted to transmit the Ethernet service, the
user ports and VCG (EOS) ports are all located at the user side.
Generally, the user port accesses Ethernet traffic directly, and the VCG
(EOS) port serves for connection with the system port of smart Ethernet
series boards (SFE/SGE). After L2 layer switching, the traffic pass through
the RPR system port to enter the RPR ring network.
The RSEB-RPR board provides RPR port, VCG (RPR SPAN) port, user port,
and VCG (EOS) port. The configuration procedure is described below:
1. Install boards for an NE
Double-click an NE icon in the client operation window to enter the
Card Management dialog box. Install the RSEB-RPR board, necessary
functional boards, and optical line boards for adding/dropping Ethernet
traffic.

Configuring MPLS Ethernet
Service
[Introduction]
MPLS Ethernet processing board is employed in access layer or
convergence layer of Metropolitan Area Network (MAN). The Ethernet
message is processed via the flow method. The board supports multi
switch method including MPLS, VLAN, etc., meanwhile, provides virtual
bridge function and guarantees the quality of point to point service. Hence,
it is one of the important boards to construct virtual private line (VPL) and
virtual private network (VPN). The SE boards are listed in Table 51.

MSE board divides into MSEA and MSEB. MSEA supports Ethernet
Virtual Private LAN (EVPLAN) but MSEB does not support EVPLAN. In
EMS, select software/hardware version to differentiate MSE and FE
interface types whose configurations are similar.
User port can be configured as user Ethernet port or MPLS Ethernet
port via EMS. User Ethernet port of this board, which is same with
those of other boards, is used to access Ethernet service; MPLS
Ethernet port is used to access Ethernet service carrying with MPLS
label.

Chapter 3 - Ethernet Service Configuration
Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 101
VCG port can be configured as VCG (EOS) port or VCG (GFP MPLS)
port. VCG (EOS) port, which is same with those of other boards, is
used to connect with SDH side; VCG (GFP MPLS) port is used to
connect with the Ethernet service carrying with MPLS label. The service
path is VCG path, and the message format is GFP+MPLS label+ Normal
Ethernet Message.
MPLS Ethernet processing board accesses or converges the distributed
service to the trunk network or backbone network, then classifies the
service by flow, identifies the object address, controls the speed,
schedules and shapes the service. Following, transports the service by
Ethernet port or by the SONET/SDH ports after encapsulated via
GFP/HDLC/X.86 protocol.
MSEA board supports EVPLAN, Ethernet Private Line (EPL) and Ethernet
Virtual Private Line (EVPL). MSEB board supports EPL and EVPL.
Hereinafter, MSE represents MSEA and MSEB.
Configuring EPL Service
EPL is a point to point service which transparently transports Ethernet
service from point to point, does not perform layer 2 switching and self-
study MAC address. EPL service of each user is carried via private SDH
path, which indicates that only the user occupies the bandwidth of its SDH
path.
EPL service is configured on MSE board by configuring the two ports of
MSE board in pair; therefore, the service is transparently transported
between the two ports.
[Steps]
1. Installing the board
Double-click the NE icon in the client operation window to open the
Card Management dialog box. Then, install necessary functional
boards, optical line board and MSE board which can add/drop Ethernet
traffic.

users can share the link bandwidth. MSE board adopts MPLS L2 VPN to
achieve the EVPL service which means to establish a simulative service
between different MSE boards in one VPN. Each MSE board which is also
called Virtual Forwarded Instance (VFI) is a node in the VPN. The VFI does
not support L2 switching and self-study MAC address, that is, the Ethernet
service enters into the Label Switched Path (LSP) directly.

Parameters Descriptions Remarks
LSP Name LSP name in EMS -
LSP ID LSP identifier in EMS
LSP ID in one node is
unique.
Config Mode
Configuration modes of LSP, including Static
Route Config, auto and Half Auto.
Static Route Config: In this mode, user
should specify all of the LSP parameters
including QoS attributes, peak speed, burst
length, source/destination node, output port
and label of source node, input port and
label of destination node, input/output port
and label of the middle node.
auto: In this mode, user just needs to
specify QoS attributes, peak speed, burst
length and source/destination node, except
any input/output label of node and the
middle node which will be set by the
protocol automatically,
Half Auto: In this mode, user needs to
specify QoS attributes, peak speed, burst
length, source/destination node and the
middle node, except any input/output label
which is set by the protocol automatically.
The differentiation of
auto mode and Half
Auto mode is that the
Half Auto mode must
configure all of the
passed-by nodes of LSP,
but auto mode just
configures the source
and destination node.

QoS Property
QoS property, including (Enhanced Forwarded)
EF, (Assured Forwarded) AF and (Best Effort) BE
EF: called as A class service, enhanced
forward the service to guarantee the
Committed Information Rate (CIR) of
service.
AF: called as B class service, guarantee the
maximum speed of the service is CIR, take
the best effort to forward service whose
speed is beyond CIR. However, the
maximum speed of service should not be
over Peak Information Rate (PIR).
BE: called as C class service, take the best
effort to forward the service.
The sequence of priority
of the service is EF, AF,
BE. The priority of EF is
the highest.
Peak Speed
The maximum bandwidth of LSP, the minimum
peak speed is 64kbit/s, the maximum peak
speed is 1250000 kbit/s.
-
Pledge
Speed
The minimum bandwidth of LSP. Only AF service
can pledge the speed and the peak speed.
When the network is
blocked, CIR of AF
service can be
guaranteed, but the
bandwidth of PIR
maybe occupied by the
services with higher or
equal priority.

Setting APS Byte
[Purpose]
The Automatic Protection Switching (APS) byte serves for transmitting the
MSP switching information. The multiplex section protection switching will
normally work when the APS byte is correctly transmitted.

ZXONM E300 (V3.19) Operation Manual (Volume II)
148 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION
The value of APS byte ranges from 0 to 3, and the default value is 0.
An NE can be included in multiple MSP groups, when it has been
configured into a logical subnet.
The ZXONM E300 supports the setting of APS byte in the unit of port, thus
guaranteeing normal working of each MSP group.
The principles to set the APS byte are described as follows.
The APS byte of two ports physically connected in the same MS ring
must be the same, to guarantee proper transmission of APS byte
between two nodes.
If one port belongs to different MSP groups, the APS byte of each MSP
group must be unique.
ZXMP S320 and ZXMP S360 do not support the setting of APS byte,
and their default APS byte is 0. Therefore, the APS byte must be set to
zero for the optical ports connected with the ZXMP S320 or ZXMP S360
equipment.
[Applicable NEs]
The applicable NEs are ZXMP S380, ZXMP S390, ZXMP S330, ZXMP S325,
ZXMP S385 and ZXMP S200.
Take the MSP ring 1, consisting of NE A, B, C, and D in the network
presented in Chapter 1, as an example.
[Steps]
1. Configure the two-fiber bidirectional MSP ring
Create a MSP group and configure the MS protection relation according
to the description in the section of Configuration of Two-fiber
Bidirectional MSP Ring in Chapter 1.
2. In the MS Protection dialog box, check the APS byte of the abutting
port at the neighbor NE, as shown in Figure 84;

6. Repeat step 1 to step 7 to set and save the APS byte for the NE B, C,
and D in the MSP group respectively.
[Result]
Check the normal working of all NEs.
Configuring DCC
[Purpose]
The data communication channel (DCC) carries the communication data
among NEs, including the regenerator section DCC bytes (DCCr) and the
multiplex section DCC byte (DCCm).

Through configuring the DCC use and changing the DCC byte of the port,
the following functions can be provided:
The communication rate of NEs will be improved with the DCC
configuration of DCCr + DCCm.
As long as the DCC byte of the abutting optical interfaces keeps the
same value, any line port can use DCCr or DCCm to carry the
communication data separately.
When the DCC is not used for optical interfaces, non-communication
data can be transmitted through the pass-through connection between
DCCr and DCCm among different ports with the overhead cross-
connect function of the EMS.
The DCC byte can be configured separately and differently in the
receiving direction and the transmitting direction.

Caution:
The DCC must be configured as DCCr for the optical card used for regeneration.
If the DCC is used to transmit communication data, the DCC setting must be
the same for the abutting optical interfaces to guarantee the communication data
transmission.

[Applicable NEs]
The applicable NEs areZXMP S380, ZXMP S390, ZXMP S330, ZXMP S325,
ZXMP S385 and ZXMP S200.
[Steps]
1. Select an applicable NE in the topology.

Performance Management

This chapter describes the operation method and process for performance
configuration and performance query in ZXONM E300.
Performance Configuration
Setting Digital Performance Threshold
[Purpose]
Digital performance refers to parameters that reflect the transmission and
traffic quality, such as channels and interfaces. In the operation of the
equipment, the digital performance is detected by the MCU of cards, which
also performs statistics on the performance values. The performance
statistical period can be 15 minutes or 24 hours.
In ZXONM E300, each performance threshold has a default value, which is
downloaded to the NCP card of the NE while the system downloads the
database at the first time.
The 15 minutes or 24 hours performance threshold of the performance
items can be modified and then downloaded to the NCP with some special
commands.
[Applicable NEs]
All the SDH NEs
Take NE D in the networking instance in Chapter 1 as an example.

[Result]
When the MCU of NE D detects the 15 minutes performance value of UAS
is greater than or equals to 1000, the NE D will report the UAS over
threshold alarm.
Setting Analog Performance Threshold
[Purpose]
The analog performance refers to parameters that embody the working
conditions of physical components or circuits, such as the receiving and
transmitting optical power of a laser. Generally, there is an higher
threshold and a lower threshold for each analog parameter.
As the quantity of analog parameters can not be accumulated during a
period, the difference between the analog value and reference value is
taken as the criterion to judge whether it is normal.
The thresholds of analog performance items of a specific card can be
modified through the analog performance threshold command.

If the receiving end detects the Service layer Signal Failure (SSF)
alarm, the traffic will be forced to switch. The SSF alarm is caused by
Loss of Pointer (LOP) and the Alarm Indication Signal (AIS).
SNC (I) is the default switching condition of SNC.
Signal Deterioration (SD)
If an SD alarm is detected on the channel, a forced switching will occur.
By default, the SD will not lead to channel switching.
SNC (N) (SNC protection with non-intrusive supervision)
If the receiving end detects a Track Signal Failure (TSF) or Track Signal
Deterioration (TSD) alarm, a forced switching will occur. The TSF is
caused by the SSF, UNEQ or TIM alarm, and the TSD is caused by the
SD alarm.

Maintenance Operations

This chapter introduces maintenance operations of SDH NEs.

Note: Attention please! Any misoperation of maintenance may cause service
interruption or equipment malfunction. Please Read this chapter carefully before
performing maintenance operations.
Setting Loopback
[Purpose]
Through the loopback of an optical channel or tributary, the traffic is
transmitted from the transmitting port and received at the receiving port
of the NE. In the case of separating the communication links, the loopback
can be used to confirm the fault point of NEs and detect the working
status of nodes and transmission lines in the network.
Note: The loopback operation may result in traffic interruption, therefore be
careful while performing the loopback operation.
The operation principle of loopback is that keep the influences on traffic as little as
possible. For example, if a fault can be located through a tributary unit loopback,
the AU loopback should be avoided.

Loopback type
The loopback is divided into line loopback and terminal loopback
depending on the flow direction of signals between transmitting and
receiving ports.
The loopback from an optical line card to an optical port of it is the
line loopback, while the loopback in the opposite direction is the
terminal loopback.

ZXONM E300 (V3.19) Operation Manual (Volume II)
222 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION
The loopback from an electrical tributary card to an electrical
tributary port of it is the terminal loopback, while the loopback in
the opposite direction is the line loopback, as shown in Figure 128.
