The CiTRANS 610A writes the NE IP address to the equipment based on SN.
Basic Concepts
u SN
The SN is a 12-bit serial number of the equipment, which is similar to the MAC
address of a computer, so as to guarantee its uniqueness in the entire network.
The SN of the CiTRANS 610A has been downloaded to the equipment before
delivery. Generally the SN label is attached to the front panel of the equipment.
u Local NE
u Source NE
u Adjacent NE
68 Version: B
3 Equipment Commissioning
The adjacent NE indicates the NE connected with source NE via optical path or
Ethernet cable without any other NE between them; or the NE interconnected
with the source NE via the MAN offered by another vendor in the Overlay mode.
u Overlay
The Overlay mode indicates encapsulating the management MCC packets and
service packets sent by the FiberHome PAN equipment with a VLAN tag of the
MAN channel offered by another vendor when the MAN provides the
management channel and service channel. Therefore, the packets will be
transparently transmitted through the MAN offered by another vendor.
The management channel and service channel offered by another vendor must
be the VPWS private line service channels.
You can set the NE IP address in local mode or remote mode. The NEs directly
connected with the OTNM2000 can be set using the method of setting the local NE
IP address, while the NEs not directly connected with the OTNM2000 can be set
using the method of setting the adjacent NE IP address. The following introduces
both modes, as shown in Figure 3-2.
Connect the OTNM2000 computer with NE1 directly, and the OTNM2000 will
obtain the SN of the local NE (NE1). Configure the IP addresses and switches
using the OTNM2000 and download the mappings between SN numbers and
IP addresses to the local NE.

FiberHome
As shown in Figure 3-3, if the MAN uses the FiberHome equipment, the
CiTRANS 610A interconnects with the NNI of the FiberHome MAN and
connects with the OTNM2000 via the in-band MCC. In this example, NE1 is the
local NE, NE2 is the adjacent NE of NE1, and NE4 is the adjacent NE of NE3.
u Connecting the CiTRANS 610A to the OTNM2000 via the MAN offered by
another vendor
Figure 3-4 Connecting the CiTRANS 610A to the OTNM2000 via the MAN Offered by Another
Vendor
As shown in Figure 3-4, if the MAN uses the equipment offered by another
vendor, the CiTRANS 610A interconnects with the UNI of the MAN offered by
another vendor and connects with the OTNM2000 via the Overlay mode. In this
example, NE1 is the local NE, NE2 is the adjacent NE of NE1, and NE3 is the
adjacent NE of NE2.
If the equipment connects to the OTNM2000 via the MAN offered by another
vendor, this vendor should create the VPWS channel that transparently
transmits the specified VLAN IDs and inform FiberHome. Then, FiberHome
uses the CiTRANS 650 to transmit the management packets with this VLAN ID
according to the management channel information offered by another vendor.
In this way, the CiTRANS 650 can manage the remote CiTRANS 610A by
passing through the MAN offered by another vendor.

This section introduces the common interface types supported by the CiTRANS
610A, and the configuration methods of common interfaces.
The common interface types on the CiTRANS 610A include UNI interfaces, NNI
interfaces, LAG interfaces and E1 emulation interfaces.
Basic Concepts
u UNI interface
The UNI interface, also known as user side interface, is used for connecting a
network device with a user device.
u NNI interface
The NNI interface, also known as network side interface, is used for
interconnection between network devices (including network devices of the
same vendor or those of different vendors).
u LAG Interface
The LAG interface is special logical interface that bundles a group of physical
Ethernet interfaces to a logical aggregation group. All the member lines in the
port aggregation group share the bandwidth and provide protection to one
another.
u E1 emulation interface
Configuration Rule
u The naming rules for the interfaces of CiTRANS 610A are described as follows:
4 Ethernet interface: port rate + port number; for example, GE1 refers to the
GE interface whose port number is 1.
4 LAG interface: LAG + ID; for example, LAG1 refers to the aggregation port
whose ID is 1.
Version: B 85
CiTRANS 610A Packet Transfer Platform User Manual
Note:
The shelf number is a decimal number starting from 0. 0 indicates the 1st
shelf under the rack, 1 indicates the 2nd shelf under the rack, and so on.
u When the port aggregation protection is required, you can add and configure an
LAG interface in the Port-Aggregation-Config tab. Follow the configuration
rules described as below.
4 Each LAG interface contains up to four member interfaces. When the non-
load sharing mode is set for the LAG interface, each LAG interface
contains up to two member interfaces.
4 An LAG interface can be used as a UNI interface. In this case, you need to
set the interface type of its member interfaces to UNI. You can also
configure the MAC address attribute.
4 When the load sharing mode of an LAG interface is set to static load
sharing / static non-load sharing, you need to configure the equipment
priority. Generally, the priority of an LAG interface on the local equipment
should be different from that on the opposite end equipment. The smaller is
the value, the higher is the priority.
4 You need to enable the LACP protocol when the load sharing mode of an
LAG interface is set to static load sharing / static non-load sharing.
u If you need to configure an E1 emulation service, you can add and configure an
E1 emulation interface in the E1 emulation configuration tab.

u LSP 1:1
Version: B 95
CiTRANS 610A Packet Transfer Platform User Manual
LSP 1:1 refers to the LSP 1:1 protection, which is a common Tunnel protection
type. In the LSP 1:1 protection mode, the protection path is used to protect the
services transmitted over the working path. The services are single-fed and
single-received. Under normal condition, services are transmitted over the
working path. When the working path is faulty, services are switched over to the
protection path, so as to ensure the normal transmission of services. Figure 4-2
shows the LSP 1:1 protection.
Configuration Rule
u You need to select the UNI interface for the source and sink ports when using
the CiTRANS 610A as source/sink node to create a Tunnel.

u When the source or the sink UNI interface is a LAG interface, select a member
of the UNI interface as the source of the sink port of the Tunnel.
u During configuration of a Tunnel, it is required that all nodes along the Tunnel
should support MPLS.
u If other nodes (cross-node Tunnels) exist between the source node and
destination node, you can specify the nodes and ports that the Tunnel passes
using routing constraints.
u When configuring a Tunnel, comply with the following rule to distribute labels for
each node: the value of outgoing label for the previous node is equal to the
value of incoming label for the next node.
u Two identical incoming labels are not allowed in the label forwarding table of
one node.
u If the NNI interface that a Tunnel passes by is a VLAN sub-interface, the VLAN
ID of the local sub-interface should be the same with that of the connected
opposite end sub-interface.

This section introduces the basic concepts and configuration rules of VLAN.
Basic Concepts
u VLAN
The VLAN refers to the VLAN ID carried in a TAG added to an Ethernet frame.
VLAN indicates dividing a physical network into logical subnets according to
specific rules. Broadcast packets in each VLAN can only be transmitted within
the VLAN, which means a VLAN corresponds a broadcast domain.
u QinQ
QinQ is a layer 2 VPN solution. With the VLAN nesting technology, data
packets carry two different VLAN tags to identify different data packets. This
eliminates the limitation of the original solution in which only one VLAN tag is
used to identify different data packets. In this way, VLAN IDs are extended. The
inner VLAN tag is referred to as C-VLAN, indicating the customer VLAN. The
outer VLAN tag is referred to as S-VLAN, indicating the carrier VLAN.
u VLAN RANGE
VLAN RANGE refers to the VLAN within a specific range. When the VLAN of
the user packets received by UNI is within a specific range, you need to
perform settings on the equipment to allow the VLAN within a specific range to
enter the corresponding layer 2 service.
Configuration Rule

enter the corresponding layer 2 service.
u VLAN operation
4 Egress VLAN action: Includes NOP (no action), Add and Delete, indicating
performing no action on VLAN of the packet, adding an outer VLAN to the
packet and deleting the outer VLAN of the packet when the packet is
transmitted via the egress, respectively.

The ingress VLAN identification and egress VLAN action need to be configured
on the same station. For one direction of a service, the ingress VLAN
identification of a UNI is used together with the egress VLAN action of a NNI.
For another direction of a service, the ingress VLAN identification of a NNI is
used together with the egress VLAN action of a UNI. See the figure below.
Configuration Method
u For the configuration methods of UNI ingress traffic classification and VLAN
operation of the E-Line service, see Step 5 of the configuration procedures in
Configuring E-Line Services.

4 Equipment Configuration
You need to know about the basic concepts and application scenarios of static
multicast and IGMP before configuring the multicast function.
Basic Concepts
u IGMP
In the TCP/IP protocol suite, the Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)
manages the IP multicast group members. It establishes and maintains the
member relationship between IP hosts and multicast routers that are directly
connected to the IP hosts.
All IGMP versions support the ASM model. IGMPv3 can be directly applied to
the SSM model; IGMPv1 and IGMPv2 can be applied to the SSM model with
the technical support of IGMP SSM Mapping.
u IGMP Snooping
As shown in the figure below, when IGMP Snooping is not running on the layer
2 device, multicast packets are broadcast to all devices at layer 2. When IGMP
Snooping is running on the layer 2 device, multicast packets for known
multicast groups are multicast to the receivers, rather than broadcast to all
hosts, at layer 2.
Version: B 139
CiTRANS 610A Packet Transfer Platform User Manual

Equipment
u Layer 2 multicast
Layer 2 static multicast indicates that the multicast forwarding table entries are
configured manually so that the interfaces are mapped to multicast group
addresses for guiding the forwarding of multicast data.
Configuration Rule
u The multicast function is applied to the VPLS network (E-LAN and E-Tree).
u Configure VPLS L2VPN (E-LAN and E-Tree) service before configuring the
multicast function.
u You need to set the multicast function in the Board Configuration of the
specified NE according to the project requirements.

CiTRANS 610A Packet Transfer Platform User Manual
4 For the ring network composed of less than six NEs, trace the reference
source in one direction.
4 For the ring network composed of six NEs or more than six NEs, the line
clock should trace the shortest path. For example, if the network is
composed of N NEs, there should be N/2 NEs that trace the reference
clock in one direction, and the other N/2 NEs that trace the reference clock
in another direction (if the N is an odd number, the middle NE can trace the
reference clock in any direction).
3. The maximum hop number of clock tracing should be no more than 20.
5. For the equipment configured with multiple clock sources, set the clock source
restoration mode to auto mode.

Note:
MTU is short for Maximum Transmission Unit. It refers to the maximum number of
bytes of a data packet that can be transmitted by an interface.
When two sets of equipment on the same network interconnect with each other, if
the MTU set at the transmit end exceeds the maximum number of bytes supported
by the receive end or a transit equipment, data packets will be discarded during the
course of forwarding.
When the CiTRANS 610A interconnects with the MAN offered by another vendor, it
is recommended that the MTU of the channel offered by the MAN of another vendor
be set to a value larger than 1600. When the MTU setting of another vendor
includes the interface MTU and PWE3 MTU, it is recommended that both MTUs be
set to a value larger than 1600.

CiTRANS 610A Packet Transfer Platform User Manual
u Traffic policing indicates controlling the incoming traffic to ensure that the
network resources are properly allocated. In the traffic policing mechanism, the
committed access rate (CAR) is used to control traffic.
u Traffic shaping limits the traffic and burst of an outgoing connection in the
network, and ensures that the packets are transmitted out of the network in a
uniform rate.
204 Version: B
4 Equipment Configuration
u The simple traffic classification implements the mapping between the internal
priority and external priority. Firstly, packets are classified based on the EXP
values of MPLS packets and the 802.1P values of VLAN packets. Then, the
mapping between the priorities of the packets on different networks is created.
4 Uplink simple traffic classification: The packets are classified into eight
CoSs (CS7, CS6, EF, AF4 to AF1, and BE) and marked with three colors
(green, yellow and red) based on the EXP values of MPLS packets and
802.1P values of VLAN packets. When the CoS of packets is EF, BE, CS6
or CS7, the packets are marked in green by default. The uplink simple
traffic classification is used to differentiate services such as voice, video
and data services.
4 Downlink simple traffic classification: Based on the CoSs (CS7, CS6, EF,
AF4 to AF1, and BE) and three colors (green, yellow and red), the EXP
values of MPLS packets, and the 802.1P values of VLAN packets are
reset. The downlink simple traffic classification implements the function of
re-marking, which means re-marking the EXP values of MPLS packets or
the 802.1P values of VLAN packets.

Network Model
As shown in Figure 4-14, the NNI model indicates that the NNI interface of the
CiTRANS 610A interconnects with the NNI interface of the MAN equipment offered
by FiberHome.
Service Implementation
u The NNI model is applicable to the scenario that the MAN only uses the
equipment offered by FiberHome. This model features the whole-course
application of MPLS-TP technology in the entire network.
u The access point B1/B2 of MAN uses the NNI interface to connect with the NNI
interface of the CiTRANS 610A.
218 Version: B
4 Equipment Configuration
u The network management MCC packets of the CiTRANS 610A are aggregated
to the F interface of A2 through the OSPF automatic routing of each NE in MAN,
and then aggregated to the OTNM2000 server of NOC.
Network Model
Version: B 219
CiTRANS 610A Packet Transfer Platform User Manual
As shown in Figure 4-15, the Overlay model indicates that the NNI interface of the
CiTRANS 610A interconnects with the UNI interface of the MAN equipment offered
by another vendor.
Service Implementation
u The Overlay model is applicable to the scenario that the MAN uses the
equipment offered by other vendors instead of FiberHome. This model features
that the FiberHome PAN equipment uses end-to-end MPLS-TP technology.
u Both the IP/MPLS Core and NOC (Network Operations Center) OTNM2000
require the HUB-PAN.
u The access point B1/B2 of MAN uses the UNI interface to connect with the NNI
interface of the CiTRANS 610A.
u The service packet are encapsulated in the TUNNEL+PW format of the MPLS-
TP standard (with svlan).
u In the PAN network, an end-to-end LSP from the CiTRANS 610A to the IP/
MPLS Core CiTRANS 650 is created at the client service access point. The
LSP aggregates client services to the UNI interface of the CiTRANS 650 and
terminates the services at the IP/MPLS Core.
u In the MAN, all the uplink service packets and network management packets of
the CiTRANS 610A are regarded as ordinary Ethernet packets. An LSP is
created based on the port+vlan traffic classification rules. At the UNI interface
of access point B1/B2, the LSP aggregates the service packets to A1, and
aggregates the network management packets to A2.
This section introduces how to configure the client service in typical scenario of NNI
model using an example.
220 Version: B

Network Diagram
As shown in the figure, the NNI interface of the access network equipment
CiTRANS 610A interconnects with the NNI interface of the FiberHome MAN
equipment CiTRANS 660. The access network PAN equipment CiTRANS 610A is
under unified management of MAN.
It is required that the eNode B and IP/MPLS Core should be able to communicate
with each other. This can be implemented by configuring an E-Line service between
NE1↔NE6. The service route between eNode B and IP/MPLS Core is descried as
follows.
u In uplink direction
The uplink data packets of the eNode B carry no VLANs. The packets are
transmitted from NE6 to NE1, added with the VLAN ID 601 at NE1, and finally
received at the IP/MPLS Core.
Version: B 221
CiTRANS 610A Packet Transfer Platform User Manual
u In downlink direction
The IP/MPLS Core downlink data packets carry the VLAN ID 601. After being
processed by traffic classification at NE1, the packets are transmitted from NE1
to NE6. The packets are stripped of the VLAN ID 601 at NE6 and finally
received at eNode B.
Note:
u If NE21 connects with the IP/MPLS Core via one port and multiple
VLANs, you need to configure flow classification (flow VLAN and
flow type) on NE1 to identify different services.

5 Equipment Maintenance
The high temperature issues have severe influence on the network running. This
section introduces the cause, impact, solution and preventive measures of the high
temperature issues.
The high temperature increases the failure rate and reduces the lifetime of an
equipment, increasing the OPEX. The high temperature also leads to noise which is
harmful to human body.
Increasing failure rate of equipment: Failure rate refers to the inherent failure
probability of a component in its lifetime. Within its working temperature, the failure
rate is stable. However, if the working temperature is excessively high, the failure
rate increases exponentially with the increase of temperature.
