2 Function

1+1 Protection for the Core Switch and Cross-connect Card

u It is recommended that two SNCV1 cards in hot standby mode be configured


for the CiTRANS 650 U3. When the active card fails, services on the active
card will be switched to the standby card, so as to implement the 1+1
protection.

1+1 Protection for the Power Card

It is recommended that two power cards in hot standby mode be configured for the
CiTRANS 650 U3. When the active card fails, the power supply to which the
standby card connects provides power for the equipment, implementing 1+1
protection.

Protection for the Fan Unit

The CiTRANS 650 U3 provides intelligent fan unit protection.

The fan unit of the CiTRANS 650 U3 includes four fans that are working
independently and performing mutual hot standby. When all fans are operating
normally, the fan unit rotates according to the working mode set by the SRC2A card.
If one of the fans fails or stops rotating, the fan unit will report the alarm information
and refuse to receive the command from the core switch and cross-connect card,
and the remaining fans run in full speed, so as to facilitate the heat dissipation and
guarantee the normal operating of the equipment.

TPS 1:1 Protection for the E1 Card

It is recommended that two E1 cards and one terminal board should be configured
for the CiTRANS 650 U3. When the active card fails, services on the active card will
be switched to the standby card, so as to implement the TPS 1:1 protection.

2.3.2 Network-level Protection

The CiTRANS 650 U3 provides abundant network-level protections, as shown in


Table 2-5.

protection

LSP 1:1 Protection

In LSP 1:1 protection, the protection path is used to protect the services transmitted
over the working path. When the working path fails, the service switches to the
protection path.

The service protected by the LSP 1:1 protection is single-fed and single-received.

Depending on whether the service is switched to the working path after the working
path is back to normal, the LSP protection can be divided into revertive and non-
revertive modes. And depending on whether the Rx and Tx ends of the service are
assisting the switching when the switching occurs, the LSP protection can be
divided into unidirectional and bidirectional protections.

In LSP 1:1 protection, the active / standby status and switching status are
exchanged on the protection path through the APS protocol. The equipment at both
ends performs service switching according to protocol statuses and switching
statuses.

PW APS Protection

In PW APS protection, the PW OAM packet is used to test the quality of the service
channel, and the APS packet is used between two stations for interaction and
switching.

The PW 1:1 protection is applied in the scenario of same source and same sink.
The PW APS protection is implemented by configuring two PWs with the same
source and sink stations but with different paths that carry the Tunnel.

The PW redundancy protection is applied in the scenario of same source and


different sinks. The PW APS protection is implemented by configuring two PWs with
the same source station but different sink stations (sink 1 and sink 2).

8 Version: A/1
2 Function

Ethernet LAG Protection

A Link Aggregation Group (LAG) is a group of physical Ethernet interfaces with the
same rate that are bound as a logical interface for the purpose of increasing the
bandwidth and protecting link protection.

LAG provides larger bandwidth and higher reliability of the links. Members of the
port aggregation group perform mutual dynamic backup protection; when one link
fails, other links will take over the traffic load of the failed link to achieve load sharing.

2.3.3 Network Management Information Protection

The CiTRANS 650 U3 provides a protection channel for network management


information. The NEs whose network management information should be protected
is accessed into the data communication network (DCN), and connected with the
network management system host to establish the protection channel of the
network management information.

When the network is normal, network management information is transmitted on the


working channel. When the working channel fails, an NE automatically switches to
the protection channel to transmit network management information, which allows
the network management system to monitor and operate the entire network.

2.4 Carrier-Class Network Management

The CiTRANS 650 U3 uses the OTNM2000 Element Management System


(hereinafter referred to as the OTNM2000) to realize the network management. The
OTNM2000 is the subnet of the TMN and designed in line with the OSI standard of
ISO.

The OTNM2000 offered by FiberHome can implement the integrated management


on various types of FiberHomes transmission and access equipment with one
platform, so as to facilitate better user experience and lower the maintenance
budget.

Version: A/1 9

management at the central office, with a large control scope, high management
efficiency, and low maintenance cost.

Configuration management includes network configuration and NE configuration.

u Network information configuration: includes setting up, modifying and deleting


physical links and service channels of a network, and reconfiguring physical
links and channels and recovering routes when faults occur on the network.

u NE information configuration: indicates managing (creating, deleting, and


modifying) NEs that constitute a communication network, including NE
initialization and function configuration (adding or deleting NEs, subracks, or
cards).

2.4.2 Support of Performance and Alarm Management

The CiTRANS 650 U3 uses the OTNM2000 to perform performance management


and alarm management and implements operations such as real-time collection,
prompt, browsing, filter, confirmation, clearing, and statistics collection related to
performance data and alarms, as well as alarm relevance analysis and fault
diagnosis.

u Performance management: The OTNM2000 provides the performance


management function, produces reports and evaluation on the transport
performance parameters of the communication equipment and networks. It
collects quality data and statistics on the actual operation of equipment in
communication networks and monitors the status and performance of networks
and equipment. This provides an evidence for the maintenance personnel to
evaluate, analyze, predict and plan the network.

u Alarm management: The OTNM2000 supports alarm management, implements


real-time monitoring on abnormal operation of the equipment and the network
channels, performs monitoring, report, storage of alarmed signals, and fault
diagnosis, isolation and troubleshooting.

2.4.3 DCN Construction

As a part of network management, the DCN is used to transmit network


management information.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports multiple DCN construction modes and isolation of
MCN and SCN, and implements both in-band and out-of-band DCN network modes.

2.4.3.1 In-band DCN Network

In an in-band DCN, the service channel provided by the managed equipment is


used to perform network equipment management. In this mode, network
management information is transmitted via the service channel of the equipment.

This network mode is flexible and requires no additional equipment.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports the following interfaces of an in-band DCN:

u GE interface

u 10GE interface

u STM-1 interface

See Figure 2-1 for the in-band DCN network of the CiTRANS 650 U3.

Figure 2-1 The In-band DCN Network Diagram

Version: A/1 11
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

2.4.3.2 Out-of-band DCN Network

In an out-of-band DCN, channels other than service channels are used to transmit
network management information to implement network management.

Compared with an in-band DCN, an out-of-band DCN provides management


channels that are more reliable. When service channels of an out-of-band DCN are
faulty, network management information can be obtained in a timely manner and
real-time network monitoring can be implemented.

An out-of-band DCN requires dedicated communication channels independent of


service channels.

In out-of-band DCN network mode, the network management center can set up a
DCN with the managed equipment in multiple modes. The CiTRANS 650 U3
supports the following out-of-band DCN network modes:

u E1 private line

u Ethernet

3 Product Feature

Access Link OAM

The access link OAM is an end-to-end OAM function specific to services and
supports the detection on quality of Ethernet link across multiple NEs.

MPLS-TP OAM

MPLS-TP OAM can effectively detect and isolate defects in an MPLS-TP network
and monitor the network performance.

The equipment can trigger the protection switching using the detecting status of
OAM, so as to implement quick fault detection and service protection, and
guarantee the carrier-class QoS in the unified switching network.

The OAM mechanism of the MPLS-TP complies with the standard GACh+Y.1731. It
provides abundant service overhead, similar to the feature of the TDM network. It
also implements the functions of automatic network fault detection, protection
switching, performance monitoring and fault isolation for hierarchical network,
performing the OAM monitoring for each layer of the MPLS-TP.

Ethernet OAM

Ethernet OAM, a tool of monitoring network problems, works at the data link layer,
reports network status via the regular interacting of OAM PDU between devices and
assists network administrators in efficiently managing the network.

The Ethernet OAM is compliant with the ITU-T Y.1731 standard, supports proactive
and on-demand fault management mechanisms, and performs functions such as
Ethernet continuity check, loopback detection, link tracing message, alarm
indication message, maintenance communication channel message, and remote
defect indication.

CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

3.1.2 MPLS-TP OAM Mechanism

Compared to the OAM functions of TDM/SONET and ATM, the traditional packet
based network management and maintenance functions are relatively weak and
cannot provide end-to-end service management, fault detection and performance
monitoring. MPLS-TP has the similar function as the OAM management function of
the TDM, which is different from the traditional packet transport technology and is
the key technology of MPLS-TP.

The main OAM functions are as described follows.

u Supports hierarchical OAM functions. The MPLS-TP OAM provides up to eight


MEG layers (0 to 7), and each layer supports independent OAM functions, so
as to meet the requirements of various network deployment policies.

u Provides the OAM function related to the fault management; performs the
automatic detection, checking and verification, isolation, notification of network
faults. The end-to-end fault management function at the VC-layer can be
performed in the MPLS-TP network.

u Provides the OAM function related to the performance monitoring; performs the
online measurement of network performance and performance report function.
The end-to-end performance measurement function at the VC-layer can be
performed in the MPLS-TP network.

u Provides OAM functions for daily maintenance, including loopback and locking,
providing operators with more convenient maintenance operation methods for
daily network checking.

3.2 QoS Feature

The following introduces the QoS feature of the CiTRANS 650 U3.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 provides the hierarchical end-to-end QoS management and
the hierarchically differentiated and fine-grained transmission service based on
stream for every user group, every user and every user service.

3.2.1 QoS Overview

QoS is referred to as performance of data flows on a network and proposed to


ensure end-to-end service quality.

QoS does not contribute to increase of bandwidth but it can be used to allocate and
monitor network resources properly to minimize network delay and jitter and ensure
the quality of key services.

QoS can be measured using the following indicators:

u Service availability: time in which service running is guaranteed.

u Delay: time spent in transmitting a packet between two reference points.

u Jitter: time deviation in arrival of packets in a group transmitted via the same
route.

u Throughput: packet transmission rate, indicated by the average rate or peak


rate.

u Packet loss rate: maximum proportion of discarded packets.

3.2.2 QoS Capability

The CiTRANS 650 U3 provides hierarchical end-to-end QoS management and


high-quality differentiated transmission service, and also has a complete QoS
scheduling mechanism.

Version: A/1 19
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

Traffic Bandwidth Control

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports the add / drop traffic bandwidth control policy of
multiple layers as shown below:

u Traffic bandwidth control based on MPLS TUNNEL

u Traffic bandwidth control based on PW

u Traffic bandwidth control based on VPWS

u Traffic bandwidth control based on VPLS-VS

u Traffic bandwidth control based on VPLS emulation LAN

Service Priority Mapping

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports DiffServ. It completely implements PHB defined in


the standard on the MPLS-TP network so that carriers can provide services of
differentiated QoS levels for users.

When forwarding data, the CiTRANS 650 U3 maps user priority and TMC layer
priority carried in received packets to PHBs and maps PHBs in the transmitted
packets to the TMC / TMP layer priority.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports setting PHBs for VPWS, VPWS flows, VPLS-VS,
and LAN ports emulated over VPLS. Users can either choose from the existing
mapping table for the PHB and TMC priority level, or set a specific PHB service
level.

Queue Buffer Management

When network congestion occurs, the CiTRANS 650 U3 employs certain queue
buffering management policies to preferentially ensure the QoS of services with
high priorities.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports two types of queue buffering management policies:
tail drop and WRED.

u Tail drop

When the queue is filled to its maximum capacity, the newly arriving packets
are dropped until the queue has enough room to accept inbound traffic.

20 Version: A/1
3 Product Feature

u WRED

When the output buffer zone is below the START threshold, no data packet is
discarded. When the output buffer zone is above the END threshold, all data
packets are discarded. When the output buffer zone is between the START and
END thresholds, the discarding rate is an average-queue-length function.

Queue Scheduling

When congestion occurs, the CiTRANS 650 U3 uses different queue scheduling
policies to guarantee the QoS of services with high priority.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports two types of queue scheduling policies as follows:

u SP: Packets in queues are scheduled based on the queue priority. In this case,
packets in a lower-priority queue are sent only when those in higher-priority
queues are all sent.

u WFQ: Queues are fairly scheduled based on their weights assigned. Queues
with higher priority are assigned higher weights and therefore occupy more
bandwidth. Similarly, queues with lower priority are assigned lower weights and
therefore occupy less bandwidth.

3.2.3 QoS Mechanism

Combined with the QoS technology of the MPLS-TP, the QoS mechanism includes
traffic classification, traffic policing, marking, traffic shaping, queue scheduling, and
congestion avoidance.

u Traffic classification: The traffic is a group of data message with the same
feature and the classification of services can be based on the data message
traffic. The purpose of traffic classification is to differentiate services, so as to
facilitate the treatment of data message.

u Traffic policing: One action is used after the traffic classification, used to limit
the traffic rate of entering networks.

u Priority marking: Provides priority making services for the designated message,
and the marking contents include TOS, DSCP, 802.1p, MPLS EXP. The MPLS-
TP generally supports eight types of priorities according to the DiffServ
specification.

Version: A/1 21
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

u Traffic shaping: Sets limits on the burst of traffic, so as to transmit the message
traffic in an even rate and output the packet delay in the service traffic and
comply with the rules in the service model.

u Queue scheduling: When the congestion occurs, multiple messages compete


for the use of resource. The way how the forwarding equipment in the network
will implement the resource scheduling strategy decides the order of performing
message forwarding, which is called the congestion management. The
congestion management uses the queue mechanism and includes creation of
queue, traffic classification deciding the queue belonging of the message, and
the scheduling strategy among queues.

u Congestion avoidance: Monitors the utilization status of network resource (such


as queue or memory buffer) and uses the strategy of discarding the message
actively when overloads are not serious in the network. Congestion avoidance
is a kind of traffic strategy by reducing the network load to relieve or remove the
network congestion. The random early detection RED discard algorithm can
avoid the TCP global synchronization generally.

3.3 Clock Feature

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports the physical-layer clock synchronization


mechanism and the IEEE 1588v2 time synchronization protocol, and uses one
clock input / output interface to implement physical-layer clock synchronization.

3.3.1 Clock Signal Synchronization

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports physical-layer clock synchronization and 1588v2


time synchronization.

Physical-layer Clock Synchronization

In physical-layer clock synchronization, clock information is extracted from the


signals transmitted on physical channels for frequency synchronization.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 can extract clock information from the following links:

u E1 interface

u FE interface

22 Version: A/1
3 Product Feature

u GE interface

u 10GE interface

u STM-1 interface

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports two channels of external clock source input and
output. It can use clock interfaces of 75 and 120, and provide stratum 3 clock
sources of 2048 kHz / 2048 kbit/s (HDB3) coding externally.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports three clock working modes for processing and
transmitting SSM: locked, hold-over, and free running.

1588v2 Time Synchronization

1588v2 is a time synchronization protocol that provides an accuracy of


nanoseconds and can meet the requirement of 3G base stations.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports the following features of 1588v2:

u Supports clock and time synchronization using the 1588v2 protocol.

u Supports three clock modes. Each port can be configured to work in desired
mode.

4 Boundary clock mode

4 Ordinary clock mode

4 Transparent clock mode (including the end-to-end transparent clock and


the point-to-point transparent clock)

u Protection switching between synchronization reference sources.

3.3.2 Clock and Time Synchronization Technology

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports the synchronous Ethernet technology and 1588v2
time synchronization technology to implement clock and time synchronization.
Below are the detailed introduction to these two technologies.

Version: A/1 23
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

3.3.2.1 Synchronous Ethernet Technology

Background Information

Synchronous Ethernet, shortened as SyncE, is a technology that physical layer (PHY)


chip of the Ethernet bit steams are used to recover clocks of the Rx end. This mode
is the same with the TDM clock recovery mode and can get the similar TDM clock
precision, so as to realize the network clock synchronization.

The clock synchronization quality of synchronous Ethernet is similar to those of a


TDM network and can not be influenced by the network congestion, packet loss and
delay. At present, the synchronous Ethernet only supports the transmission of the
frequency signals but does not support the transmission of time signals. The
Ethernet scheme is only applicable to the scenario which does not need the time
synchronization.

Basic Concept

Synchronization status information (SSM) algorithm is sourced from clock


synchronization control of TDM. Its rules and clock selection algorithm comply with
the ITU-T G.781 standard. SSM control of the synchronous Ethernet inherits the
features of the TDM network. Ethernet synchronization message channels (ESMC)
are added on the basis of the traditional clock network.

An Ethernet synchronization message channel is a unidirectional broadcast protocol


channel at the media access control (MAC) layer. It is used for transmitting SSMs
between devices. The equipment selects the best clock source according to the
SSM of the ESMC message.

Working Principle

The clock transmission mechanism of the synchronous Ethernet is similar to that of


the TDM network. That is, the clock is recovered from the Ethernet physical link.
The quality of the recovered clock is not affected by service traffic on the link. Clock
tree deployment and clock quality the same as those of the TDM/SONET network
can be provided, meeting the timing interface specifications defined in the ITU-T
G.823 standard.

See Figure 3-2 for the principle of synchronous Ethernet.

24 Version: A/1
3 Product Feature

Figure 3-2 Synchronous Ethernet Working Principle

A high-precision timing signal is injected into the Ethernet clock processing module
of equipment at the source side (NE1) and transmitted via line transmitting module
as the system clock after being processed. The signal is extracted from the bit
stream of equipment at the Rx side (NE2). The signal precision can be synchronous
with the source end without loss in the process of transmission.

Network Application

See Figure 3-3 for the synchronous network scheme of frequency synchronization.

Version: A/1 25
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

3.3.2.2 IEEE 1588v2 Time Synchronization

Background Information

1588v2 time synchronization involves coding time information in master/slave clock


mode and implementing master/slave time synchronization by using the network
symmetry and delay measurement technology.

26 Version: A/1
3 Product Feature

Process

Before the 1588v2 technology is introduced, the time protocol, daytime protocol,
and Network Time Protocol (NTP) are used for time synchronization on the packet
network. The NTP is implemented completely via software, so its accuracy is
relatively low. The NTPv3 (widely used currently) can reach an accuracy of
approximately 10 ms. The IETF is standardizing NTPv4, which supports IPv6 and
discovering a server dynamically, with the synchronization accuracy of 10 s. But
the stability and accuracy of NTP cannot meet the telecommunication network
requirements.

1588v2 is a unified method for providing time synchronization and frequency


synchronization in the future. It applies to inter-exchange time and frequency
transmission on different transport platforms. Frequencies can be transmitted
unidirectionally in packet-based time transmission mode based on 1588v2
timestamps. Time synchronization can also be implemented by using the 1588v2
protocol, which is widely applied on unified switching devices.

Features and Advantages

As shown in Table 3-2, 1588v2 has obvious advantages compared with traditional
timing technologies. The accuracy is of ns level, the cost is low, and it can be used
in different access conditions. 1588v2 has become an inevitable trend of
development at the industrial background with increasingly higher accuracy
requirements.

information to the downlink slave port.

4 Ordinary Clock: applicable to beginning equipment and terminal equipment.


one 1588 port is provided as the slave or master clock port.

4 Boundary Clock: applicable to intermediate nodes. Multiple 1588 ports are


provided, of which one serves as the slave clock port and others serve as
the master clock ports.

4 Transparent Clock: generally used at the intermediate node of the network


to transmit the clock transparently. It transmits the time information
transparently.

Figure 3-4 Time Synchronization Mode Diagram

u BMC (Best Master Clock) algorithm

28 Version: A/1
3 Product Feature

The BMC algorithm is the core technology of the 1588v2 protocol. In the BMC
algorithm, clock performance data is compared to determine the optimal clock
in the local network, which serves as the master clock.

u Synchronization interface

4 1PPS&ToD interface: the time information is transferred via the1PPS&ToD


interface. The base station or other equipment needing the time
information recovers the time information from this interface directly. The
base station does not need to support the 1588v2 function.

4 Ethernet synchronization interface: The Ethernet interface supports the


PTP synchronization, including the FE and GE interfaces. This mode can
support a long transmission distance, but the base station needs to
support the PTP protocol and clock recovery functions.

Working Principle

In 1588v2, the round trip delay of packets on the network is estimated to estimate
the equipment clock deviation independently, thereby implementing time
synchronization through master / slave synchronization. The operating principle of
the NTP is described as follows:

1. NE1 transmits a PTP packet to NE2, and record the time when this packet
leaves NE1. The corresponding timestamp is t1.

2. When this PTP packet reaches NE2, NE2 adds the timestamp of receiving this
packet. The corresponding timestamp is Ts1.

3. NE1 transmits the Follow_Up message to NE2, for notifying NE2 of the time t1.

4. When this PTP packet leaves NE2, NE2 records the time t2 of this PTP packet
leaving NE2.

5. When NE1 receives the response packet, it adds a new timestamp Tm2. See
Figure 3-5 for the entire synchronization process.

6. The in-the-site equipment NE1 transmits the Follow_Up message to the in-the-
site equipment NE2, for notifying NE2 of the time Tm2.

Version: A/1 29
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

Figure 3-5 1588v2 Time Synchronization Principle Diagram

Users can calculate the delta-T (dt) and delay between NE1 and NE2 using the
following formulas:

u delta-T: dt=[(Ts1-t1)-(Tm2-t2)]/2

u Delay: Delay=[(Ts1-t1)+(Tm2-t2)]/2

Via the two key parameters, NE2 can synchronize with NE1.

Network Application

See Figure 3-6 for the time synchronization network scheme based on the MPLS-TP.

4 Supports OC and BC. A port can be set to Master or Slave.

4 Supports compensation for asymmetric path delay (the compensation step


is no more than 10ns); supports the configurable message transmitting
interval and supports PTP parameter setting.

Version: A/1 31
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

u Out-of-band (1PPS&ToD) mode

4 ToD information: The default baud rate is 9600 without parity check. There
is one start bit (shown in low level) and one stop bit (shown in high level).
Idle frames are high level and contain eight data bits each. The ToD
information transmission occurs at 1ms after the rising edge of the 1 pps
and completes within 500ms, and the ToD information labels the rise time
of the current 1PPS. The transmitting frequency of the ToD protocol
message is once per second.

4 1PPS: The rising edge is used as the on-time edge. The rise time is less
than 50ns. The pulse width is about 180ms.

The time synchronization signals of the CiTRANS 650 U3 comply with the
standards listed in Table 3-3.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports the card bootstrap function. During the process of
equipment start-up or capacity expansion, the network management system can
automatically identify and monitor the newly installed cards inside the NE provided
that it can monitor the NE management card. In this case, the pre-configuration of
these cards via the network management system is not needed, which facilitates the
equipment start-up and capacity expansion.

equipment is in the delivery configuration mode.

When the equipment is connected to the OTNM2000, NE information can be


automatically created and the network topology be plotted on the OTNM2000. In
this way, the connection of equipment to the OTNM2000 is simplified and
automated, and the user experience is improved.

3.4.5 Prompt of Power Failure

The prompt of power failure can be used to ascertain whether NE communication


interruption is caused by fiber break or equipment power failure. In this way, the
failure can be handled in a rapid and accurate way.

Version: A/1 33
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

During engineering maintenance, both the power-failure of equipment and fiber cut
of NE are displayed as NE communication interruption on the EMS. After the prompt
of power failure is enabled, engineers can ascertain the detailed fault of the NE by
checking whether a prompt alarm of power failure occurs on its neighboring NE. In
this way, engineers can handle the fault in the shortest time.

4.2.3.2 Function

The PDP (3000068) mainly performs the functions of power supply distribution,
alarm signal processing, lightning protection, and reverse polarity connection
protection. It inducts external power and distributes it among other electrified
equipment inside the cabinet. Meanwhile, the PDP receives the alarm signals from
other equipment inside the cabinet, and then displays and outputs the alarm signals.

The major functions of the PDP are as follows:

u Power distribution: Inducts two channels of -48V power (one active and one
standby) from the external (e.g., the power cabinet) and provides three sets of
redundant branch power rails (six branch power rails total). The maximum
output current of a single channel of power is 32A.

Note:

Refer to PDP296B User Guide for the detailed introduction to the input
and output current of the PDP.

44 Version: A/1
4 Product Structure

u Supports protection against reverse polarity connection.

u Supports alarm signal processing: Receives alarm signals reported from the
corresponding equipment via the three alarm convergence connectors,
provides audio alarms for the signals, illuminates the cabinet-top indicator
LEDs and outputs alarm signals to the upper layer equipment (such as the
head of row cabinet).

u Supports the lightning protection module alarm report: When the lightning
protection module fails, the PDP outputs the lightning protection failure signals,
and reports them to the network management system via the equipment.

u Lightning protection: Effectively blocks the 4kV (under the common mode) /
2kV (under the differential mode) inductive lightning strike (1.2/50us to 8/20us

5 Service Application

The following introduces the types of services provided by the CiTRANS 650 U3
and the network application for each type of service. It covers the following topics:

Ethernet Service

CES Service

Coarse-grained Private Line Service

Base Station GE / FE Service Bearing

54 Version: A/1
5 Service Application

5.1 Ethernet Service

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports multiple types of Ethernet services and provides an
impeccable L2VPN solution.

The VPN (Virtual Private Network) refers to the virtual private network provided for
clients via the public network by network operators. Constructing the private network
by utilizing the public network not only enables network operators to provide high-
performance and low-cost carrier-class network for users, but also provides a good
profiting mode for network operators themselves. But the traditional VPN has
obvious shortcomings in the following aspects: VPN expansibility, security,
management and maintenance, QoS and traffic engineering, so it cannot meet the
requirements of clients adequately.

To solve these problems, the L2VPN based on MPLS has emerged as the times
require. The L2VPN not only eliminates the shortcomings of traditional IP network,
frame relay and ATM network, but also has distinguished itself for following aspects:
security, real time, broad band, convenience and low construction cost. Therefore, it
can fully meet the requirements for VPN services of subscribers.

5.1.1 Service Type

The CiTRANS 650 U3 provides three types of the Ethernet service.

u Ethernet Private Line, i.e., E-Line service

u Ethernet Private LAN, i.e., E-LAN service

u Ethernet Private Tree, i.e., E-Tree service

5.1.2 Service Example

The following introduces the three types of Ethernet services provided by the
CiTRANS 650 U3 respectively via examples.

Example of E-Line Service

Figure 5-1 shows an example of the E-Line service provided by the CiTRANS 650
U3.

Version: A/1 55
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

Company X has two branches in cities A and C, company Y has two branches in
cities B and C, and company Z has two branches in cities A and B. The branches of
each of the three companies need to exchange data.

The CiTRANS 650 U3 can provide the private line service for three companies.
Service data of different companies are distinguished using different VPWS tags, so
that the requirements for communication and service data separation can be met at
the same time.

Figure 5-1 Example of E-Line Service

Example of E-LAN Service

Figure 5-2 shows an example of the E-LAN service provided by the CiTRANS 650
U3.

The headquarters of Company K is in city C. Company K has the branch 1 deployed


in cities A and B, and branch 2 deployed in cities A, B, and C. Branches 1 and 2 has
no business contact and need to be isolated from each other. The headquarters
needs to communicate with the branches and access the Internet.

56 Version: A/1
5 Service Application

The CiTRANS 650 U3 is deployed to provide the E-LAN service for company K.
Service data of different branches are labeled with different VPLS tags. In this way,
data can be shared within a branch whereas data of different branches is isolated.
The Internet access data of the headquarters is isolated from the internal service
data through VPLS.

Figure 5-2 Example of E-LAN Service

Example of E-Tree Service

Figure 5-3 shows an example of the E-Tree service provided by the CiTRANS 650
U3. The E-Tree service is a type of multipoint-to-point bidirectional convergence
service.

In the example, a 3G network is constructed for a carrier and services of key clients
need to be aggregated and transmitted to the 3G core network. The FE/E1 services
of key clients are accessed on nodes 1, 3, 5, and 9. Multiple services between key
clients and the RNC are aggregated to the 3G core network through the E-Tree
service between the CiTRANS 650 U3 and the CiTRANS 660.

Version: A/1 57
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

Figure 5-3 Example of E-Tree Service

5.1.3 Application Scenario

The application scenario of the CiTRANS 650 U3 is shown in Figure 5-4. The
CiTRANS 650 U3 is generally used in the trunk convergence nodes in the packet
MAN, so as to realize the unified transmission and bearing for IP-based multiple
services.

58 Version: A/1
5 Service Application

Figure 5-4 Application Scenario

Besides the above application, the CiTRANS 650 U3 also supports the LTE service
known as the next version of the mobile network.

Compared with the existing 2G / 3G networks, the LTE has following advantages:

u OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) improves the spectrum


utilization and minimizes the terminal cost.

u MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) improves link capacity and overcomes


multipath interference.

Version: A/1 59
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

u The network structure becomes flat with advantage of high throughput and low
latency.

See Figure 5-5 for the application of the CiTRANS 650 U3 in the LTE service. It still
acts as the trunk convergence node. The eNodeB not only provides the functions of
the original NodeB but also provides the most functions (includes the physical layer,
MAC layer, RRC, scheduling, access control, bearer control, access mobility
management and Inter-cellRRM ) of the original RNC (Radio Network Controller),
and the original backbone networks are merged and simplified into MME and SGW,
so that the structure of the LTE network is optimized and is more reliable.

Figure 5-5 Application in the LTE Service

60 Version: A/1
5 Service Application

5.2 CES Service

With the CES (Circuit Emulation Service) technology, the CES circuit switched data
can be transparently transmitted in the packet transport network. The CiTRANS 650
U3 supports emulation transparent transmission of E1 service and STM-1 service.

5.2.1 Emulation Mode

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports CES in structured or non-structured emulation


mode.

In structured emulation mode:

u Can identify and process the frame structure and transmit signaling in CES
frames.

u Can identify frame structure of CES service. It may not transmit idle timeslot
channels, but only extracts useful timeslots of CE devices from the E1 traffic
stream and then encapsulates them into PW packets for transmission.

u Can identify and transmit CAS and CCS in E1 traffic streams.

In non-structured emulation mode:

u Segments all CES services as bit streams and encapsulates them for
transmission over a PW tunnel.

u Can transparently transmit CES traffic data and synchronous timing information.
SAToP completely disregards any structure, and PEs have no need to interpret
the CES data or to participate in the CES signaling.

u Is a simple way for transparent transmission of PDH bit-streams.

5.2.2 Service Clock

CES services have high requirements for clock synchronization. The CiTRANS 650
U3 provides multiple CES service clock synchronization solutions to ensure
transmission of the CES service clock. Below are multiple clock synchronization
solutions.

u System clock recovery

Version: A/1 61
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

u Differential clock recovery

u Adaptive clock recovery

The following describes working principles of these clock synchronization solutions.

System Clock Recovery

In system clock recovery, the Tx end that generates CES signals and the Rx end
that extracts CES signals use the same network reference clock as the
synchronization signal source. Figure 5-6 shows the work principle of system clock
recovery.

Figure 5-6 Implementation Principle Diagram of System Clock Recovery

Differential Clock Recovery

In differential clock recovery, the service Rx and Tx ends have the same public
timing reference signal. The Tx end packetizes the synchronization signal on the
service side and transmits the signal to the Rx end over the packet switched
network. The Rx end then recovers the synchronization signal based on the public
timing reference signal available on the Rx end. Figure 5-7 shows the working
principle of differential clock recovery.

62 Version: A/1
5 Service Application

Figure 5-7 Implementation Principle Diagram of Differential Clock Recovery

Adaptive Clock Recovery

The adaptive clock recovery does not need the common reference clock. The
Timing packet sent from the Tx end contains the coded value of the service clock,
represented by Sequence number or Timestamp. The Rx end then recovers the
clock by using the recovery algorithm based on the sequence number or timestamp.
Figure 5-8 shows the working principle of adaptive clock recovery.

Figure 5-8 Implementation Principle Diagram of Adaptive Clock Recovery

Version: A/1 63
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

5.2.3 Application Scenario

The CiTRANS 650 U3 implements CES services using the PWE3 technology.

CES services are mainly applied in radio services and enterprise private line
services. The CiTRANS 650 U3 is connected to the 2G / 3G station or enterprise
private line through E1/channelized STM-1 line, and the equipment slices CES
signals and encapsulates them into the data packet, finally transmits the packet to
the opposite end via the MAN network through PW. See Figure 5-9.

Figure 5-9 Application Scenario of CES Service

5.3 Coarse-grained Private Line Service

The CiTRANS 650 U3 can guarantee rapid service start-up and provisioning, and
implements the following functions:

u Bears various types of coarse-grained private line services including GE, 10GE
LAN, 10GE WAN and STM-1.

u Bears fine-grained low-speed private line service such as FE and E1 as well to


implement the idea of bearing private line service of different granularity over
one network, so as to reduce the quantity of equipment and lower the
maintenance cost.

64 Version: A/1
5 Service Application

u The equipment is compact, supports unified configuration GUI of any service,


and supports rapid service deployment.

u Works together with FiberHome large-scaled packet switching equipment to


form an end-to-end scheme so as to reduce the back-to-back design, which is
cost saving and highly reliable.

Figure 5-10 shows the application scenario of coarse-grained private line service of
the CiTRANS 650 U3.

Figure 5-10 Application Scenario of Coarse-grained Private Line Service

5.4 Base Station GE / FE Service Bearing

As for base stations with FE / GE service, the FE and GE services can be accessed
to the CiTRANS 650 U3 directly.

increasingly large in scale, network stability, security, and reliability become the
concern in the construction and operation of transport networks. These elements
also become the hot spots in competition among carriers. The CiTRANS 650 U3
provides abundant protection functions to ensure normal service operation.

The following introduces the protection mechanisms of the CiTRANS 650 U3 and
includes these contents:

Equipment-Level Protection

Network-level Protection

Network Management Information Protection

Version: A/1 67
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

6.1 Equipment-Level Protection

The following introduces the equipment-level protection function of the CiTRANS


650 U3.

6.1.1 1+1 Protection for the Core Switch and Cross-connect


Card

Introduction

The core switch and cross-connect card of the CiTRANS 650 U3 is used to process
and output clock and execute the protection switching.

Function Implementation

When the CiTRANS 650 U3 are installed with two core switch and cross-connect
cards (one active and one standby), only the active card works under normal
conditions. When the active card is faulty, the standby card is notified of this event
through the monitoring channel between them. Then the standby card becomes
active to ensure normal operation of the equipment.

After the original active card resumes, it enters the standby state, forming 1+1
protection again.

Switching Trigger Conditions

u The hardware or software of the active card is faulty.

u The switching command is delivered manually.

u The active card is unplugged manually.

u The active card is hard reset.

Protection Parameter

See Table 6-1 for the 1+1 protection parameters of the core switch and cross-
connect card.

6.1.2 1+1 Protection for the Power Card

The CiTRANS 650 U3 supports two channels of power input in hot standby mode.
The equipment is supplied with power normally when either power input fails to
ensure the normal operation of the equipment.

6.1.3 TPS 1:1 Protection for the E1 Card

Introduction

The E1 card of the CiTRANS 650 U3 supports one 1:1 protection group with
dedicated protection slot. Table 6-2 describes the corresponding relationship of the
TPS 1:1 protection.

CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

6.2 Network-level Protection

The following introduces the network-level protection function of the CiTRANS 650
U3.

6.2.1 LSP 1:1 Protection

Introduction

In the LSP 1:1 protection mode, the protection path is used to protect the services
transferred via the working path. When the working path fails, the services switch to
the protection path. The service protected by the LSP 1:1 protection is single-fed
and single-received.

Function Implementation

In the LSP 1:1 protection mode, the protection path is used to protect the services
transferred via the working path. The services are single-fed and single-received.
Normally the service is transmitted via the working path except when the working
path is faulty. The service will be switched to the protection path, so as to guarantee
the normal service transmission.

The APS protocol for the LSP 1:1 protection transmits the information about
protocol status and switching status through the protection path. The equipment at
both ends performs service switching according to protocol status and switching
status.

See Figure 6-1 for the LSP 1:1 protection.

70 Version: A/1
6 Protection Implementation

Figure 6-1 LSP 1:1 Protection Diagram

Note:

u The protection needs to be configured only in Node A and Node B,


regardless of the path that the services pass.

u When the working path is normal, the protection path can transfer
additional service. When the working path fails and the service on
the working path is switched to the protection path, the additional
service will be interrupted. After the working path resumes to normal
status, the additional service will restore as well.

Switching Trigger Conditions

u An intermediate node is disconnected with the power.

u The working LSP path is faulty.

u The switching command is manually delivered.

Protection Parameter

6.2.2 PW APS Protection

Introduction

PW APS protection includes PW redundancy protection and PW 1:1 protection,


which are used in the scenario of same source and different sinks and the scenario
of same source and same sink respectively. In both scenarios, when the working
PW is faulty, the service will be switched to the protection PW which has been
created beforehand, so as to protect the service.

Function Implementation

Normally the service is single-fed and single-received, that is, the source end single-
feeds the service to the working PW, and the sink end single-receives the service
from the working PW. When the working PW is faulty, the remote end will transmit
the service to the protection PW, and the sink end receives service via the
protection PW, so as to implement the service switching from the working PW to the
protection PW.

The PW APS protection uses APS protocol to coordinate the source and sink ends
to implement the protection switching, switching hold-off and WTR functions. The
APS protocol transmits protocol status and switching status via the protection PW.
The equipment at both ends selects service path and performs service switching
according to protocol statuses and switching statuses.

6.2.3 Ethernet LAG Protection

Introduction

Link Aggregation (LAG) refers to the kind of protection mode that binds a group of
physical Ethernet interfaces with the same rate together, so as to form a logical
interface to enhance bandwidth and provide link protection. The CiTRANS 650 U3
supports LAG protection of the Ethernet interface on the UNI side.

LAG protection implements the following functions:

u Enhances the link availability: In the LAG, the members provide dynamic
backup for each other. When any of the ports fails, the other ports will take over
its work immediately. The process that a LAG starts the backup occurs only
inside the LAG, irrelevant with the ports outside the group.

u Increases the link capacity: An LAG can provide an economical method of


enhancing the links transmission rate for the users. Via bundling multiple
physical ports, users can obtain the data link with larger bandwidth without
upgrading their current equipment. The capacity of this link is the sum of the
capacity of all these physical links.

Protection Principle

The Ethernet LAG protection allows the share of load among the ports; the ports of
a LAG are not divided into active and standby ports. When any of the ports fails, the
service message will be delivered to other ports for transmission.

See Figure 6-4 for the Ethernet LAG protection supported by the CiTRANS 650 U3.

6.3 Network Management Information Protection


Introduction

On the transport network, network management information is transmitted over the


supervisory channel. Usually the supervisory channel and the main channel are the
same physical channel. When the main channel fails, the supervisory channel also
fails. Therefore, a protection channel must be provided for transmitting network
management information.

On a ring network, when a transmission segment such as the optical fiber fails,
network management information is automatically transmitted over the supervisory
channel in the other direction. This does not affect network management. Figure 6-5
shows the automatic backup of network management information channels in a ring
network.

Version: A/1 75
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

Figure 6-5 Backing up Network Management Information Channel of Ring Network


(Transmission of a Section Fails)

If both ends of a site on an optical fiber segment fail, or an optical fiber segment in a
point-to-point network or chain network fails, the supervisory channels for network
management information also fail. The network administrator cannot obtain
information about failed sites or operate these sites. To avoid such problems, a
protection channel must be deployed for network management information.

76 Version: A/1
6 Protection Implementation

Function Implementation

The CiTRANS 650 U3 can provide a protection channel for network management
information through the data communication network. Between two NEs to be
protected, a unified switching equipment is configured and connected to the data
communication network to establish a protection channel. When the network runs
properly, network management information is transmitted over the main channel.
See Figure 6-6.

Figure 6-6 Backing up Network Management Information Channel (Normal)

When the main channel becomes faulty, the NE automatically switches over the
network management information to the protection channel. This ensures that the
network management system monitors the entire network. The switchover process
is completed automatically without manual intervention. Figure 6-7 shows backup of
network management channels.

Version: A/1 77
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

Figure 6-7 Backing up Network Management Information Channel (Active Channel Fails)

Note:

In the network planning, the protection management channel and the


working channel should use different routes, so as to implement the
backup function.

7 Security Management

Security management involves authenticating operators that access the network


management system to prevent unauthorized operators from accessing network
resources and the equipment. The following introduces the security management of
the network management system of the CiTRANS 650 U3 and includes the
following contents:

Access Control

User Level and Permission Management

Data Security

Log Management

Version: A/1 79
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

7.1 Access Control

Access control involves user registration and login management, management area
division, access time restriction, and remote access management. Access control
aims to prevent unauthorized users from accessing network resources, including
the OTNM2000.

u To log in to the OTNM2000, an operator must enter the user name and
password. After the system confirms the user name and password, the
operator can finally log in to the system. The purpose is to check whether the
operator is a legal user and has corresponding authority, so as to guarantee
that only the authorized operators can access the management system.

u The managed devices are distributed in different areas, and operators are
granted permission based on management area and management function.
Only the authorized operators can access the specified area and can play the
management role only in the authorized area. Areas can be added and
modified as required.

u The access time of users can be set as required. For example, operators are
allowed to log in to the OTNM2000 at specified time periods.

u The OTNM2000 supports user management, including adding, modifying, and


deleting users. New users can be registered, and existing users can be
modified or deleted.

7.2 User Level and Permission Management

To prevent unauthorized operations, the OTNM2000 assigns different operation


permission to users of different levels. There are four levels of users. Users of
different levels have different management permission. Each user is assigned
proper management permission. A user of a higher level has all authorities of a user
of a lower level.

7 Security Management

Advanced User

The system administrator is an advanced user and has permission to configure and
modify network resources. The system administrator manages the OTNM2000, and
can perform security management operations including controlling the network,
setting passwords for users, adding, modifying or deleting users, and performing log
management.

u Add, modify (user name and password), and delete lower-level users, and save
project configuration data.

u View and delete logs.

u Deletes alarm records.

u Grant the management scope of a user.

u Delete historical performance records.

Intermediate User

Intermediate users are system maintenance users responsible for system routine
maintenance. They can add or delete users of a lower level and can access and
back up data in the management information library. Intermediate users are entitled
to access the cross-connection screen.

u Maintain the OTNM2000, perform cross-connect configuration for the


equipment, and deliver commands from the OTNM2000 to the equipment.

u Access and back up data in the database, including alarms, performance data,
log reports, and documents of lower-level users.

u Set alarm filter, performance shielding, and performance threshold.

u Control the cross-connect connection.

Operational User

Operational user is system operation user. They can only monitor the alarm status
of the system, observe and view performance monitoring results. Operational user
can monitor various detection results, including viewing card configuration data and
active configuration data.

Version: A/1 81
CiTRANS 650 U3 Smart Packet Transport Network Product Description

Limited User

Limited user can monitor the alarm status of the system, observe and browse
performance monitoring results, and view reports. Limited user can only read data
and cannot access sensitive configuration data.

u Monitor alarms, performance, and status of the system, observe and browse
performance results. Handle alarms, such as alarm confirmation.

u Read and browse data rather than perform any operations on the OTNM2000.

7.3 Data Security

The security mechanism enables the OTNM2000 to ensure the data security, data
integrity and confidentiality and implement database security management.

u Data integrity: Data is transmitted to the destination without corruption or loss.


Data at a specific time can be backed up completely and used for data
restoration when necessary.

u Data confidentiality: Data is protected and unauthorized users can not obtain
the data.

u Database security management: Data or files in the database can be backed


up to peripheral storage devices to ensure security of the OTNM2000.

7.4 Log Management

Logs are operation records. After a security event occurs, logs can be used to trace
and inspect the event to find out the cause of the system security breach.

Logs automatically record login activities and key operations of users. Log
management supports the following functions:

u Records operator identities, login time, login location, operation type and
operation result.

u Reads, queries, backs up and deletes operation logs.
