management methods such as alarm statistics, alarm identification, alarm location. This helps

the network administrator take proper measures to recover the normal operation of the network.

Networkwide Alarm Browsing

The alarm display is classified into alarm panel display, alarm topology display and alarm

browsing.

The U2000 LCT supports the following alarm browsing functions:

iManager U2000 LCT




31



l Alarm panel display

It is used to display the number of alarms of the currently managed objects by severity and

simply provide the fault status of the system. It can be used as a monitoring panel.

l Alarm topology display

When an NE reports an alarm, the NE icon in the topology view can be in different colors

according to the alarm severity. In this case, you can right-click the NE icon and query the

current alarm of the NE from the shortcut menu.

l Alarm browsing

– Browsing current alarms

It is used to browse the fault alarms that are currently not processed, that is,

unacknowledged and uncleared alarms.

– Browsing history alarms

It is used to browse the fault alarms that are currently processed, that is, acknowledged

and cleared alarms.– Browsing events

It is used to browse current abnormal events.

– Setting an alarm query template

You can save common query conditions in an alarm query template. Thus, next time

when you query alarms that meet the common conditions, you can use the template

directly without setting query conditions again. This helps you browse and monitor the

alarms that concerns you.

– The links to the corresponding descriptions of alarms in the Online Help are added in

the detailed information of alarms.

Besides the preceding f unctions, the U2000 LCT provides various customized functions, as

shown in Figure 2-2 and as listed in Table 2-7.

Figure 2-2 Alarm Browsing

Table 2-7 Description of alarm functions

Function Description

Alarm browsing The alarm browsing function helps to browse current alarms,

history alarms, and events.

Through the alarm browse function, you can query alarms by object

where an alarm occurs, function, alarm status, and alarm severity.

In addition, you can save and print the query result.

Alarm sequence Through the sequence customizing function, you can sort alarms

by field in the alarm list and customize the alarm display. In

addition, you can save alarms in the .txt, html, xls, and csv file, and

print the required alarm records.

Dynamic alarm panel Through the alarm panel, you can customize alarm conditions in analarm template flexibly and display alarms dynamically. This helps

to classify alarms quickly and acknowledge the concerned alarms.

Alarm handling mean Through the shortcut menu, you can perform various operations on

each alarm.

Alarm cause and repair

suggestion

Through this function, you can learn the cause of a selected alarm

and the repair suggestion. In addition, you can click Details to

display the alarm reference of the online help for detailed alarm

causes and handling procedures.

Alarm filtering Through the alarm filtering function, you can learn the running

status of an NE in real time. In addition, you can query the alarmstatus, refresh the status in real time, and query the details of an

alarm in the alarm activation window. You can also print the alarm

records that are received recently and meet the print conditions.

Alarm color display The severity of each alarm in the alarm list is displayed with a

corresponding color. The color can be customized. You can specify

a certain alarm and jump to its corresponding NE node in the

topology view.

Alarm Statistics

You can learn the alarm status through alarm statistics and alarm analysis.

U2000 LCT can collect alarm statistics based on user-defined conditions. The alarm conditions

include the alarm name, alarm severity, alarm function type, alarm rising time, alarm status, or

a combination of any preceding items.

Alarm Acknowledging

Alarm acknowledgment helps to identify whether an alarm is processed.

Alarm acknowledgment helps you to identify a processed alarm. You can then take proper measures by checking whether the alarm is in the acknowledged state.

Alarm Synchronization

The U2000 LCT supports the ability to synchronize NE alarms automatically and manually. You

can manually synchronize NE alarms by performing operations through GUI or set an automatic

synchronization policy. When the U2000 LCT restarts or the communication with an NE

recovers, the NE sends an alarm to the U2000 LCT. This implements the automatic alarm

synchronization on the U2000 LCT, as shown in Figure 2-3.

Figure 2-3 Alarm Synchronization

The U2000 LCT supports the ability to synchronize NE alarm.

l

Manual synchronizationYou can manually synchronize NE alarms by performing operations through GUI.

l Automatic synchronization

You can set an automatic synchronization policy. After the U2000 LCT restarts, its

communication with an NE recovers, the NE sends an alarm to the U2000 LCT. This

implements the automatic alarm synchronization on the U2000 LCT.

Alarms are synchronized according to the following rules:

l If an alarm is cleared on the NE but uncleared on the v, the alarm on the U2000 LCT is

cleared.

l If an alarm exists on the NE but does not exist on the U2000 LCT, the alarm is added tothe U2000 LCT.

NE Alarm Suppression

U2000 LCT supports the ability to suppress NE alarms. If you set the status of an alarm to

Suppressed, the NE does not report the alarm.

The difference between NE alarm suppression and NMS alarm masking is as follows: If you

enable alarm masking, an NE still reports an alarm but the U2000 LCT does not receive the

alarm. If you enable NE alarm suppression, the NE does not report an alarm, as shown in Figure

2-4.

iManager U2000 LCT

Alarm Time Localization

U2000 LCT can display the time when an alarm is generated, acknowledged, cleared, or received

as the local time. The U2000 LCT can display the time based on the server time.

The NE that reports an alarm and the current U2000 LCT, however, may be in different time

zones. To learn the correct alarm generation time, the U2000 LCT automatically converts the

alarm generation time (NE time) into the local time of the client.

Optical Power Adjustment


l Manage the optical power: Query the input power, output power, and power thresholds of

each WDM board.

l Perform intelligent power adjustment (IPA): In the case of a fiber cut, the optical amplifier

board detects signal loss at the local station. The local station reports an event to the U2000

LCT. After the event is confirmed, the optical amplifier boards at the upstream and

downstream stations reduce their output power to a safe value to protect fiber maintenance

engineers from being injured by the laser emitted from the cut fiber. After the fiber is

reconnected, the optical signals are restored and the optical power of each optical amplifier

board automatically returns to a normal value.

l Perform automatic power equilibrium (APE). If the optical power of channels detected bythe MCA board at the receive end is abnormal, an event is reported to the U2000 LCT.

After the event is confirmed, a command is issued to the optical attenuation adjustment

board at the upstream station to adjust the optical power of the corresponding channels. In

this manner, the optical signal noise ratio (OSNR) of each channel at the receive end is

equalized.

l Perform ROADM optical power equalization. After ROADM is enabled for dynamically

configuring WDM services, the WDM equipment outputs multiplexed wavelengths. The

optical power between each channel, however, may be greatly different, especially for new

add wavelengths. To avoid negative impacts on transmission performance, the ROADM

optical power equalization mechanism is provided. This mechanism first determines

whether the wavelengths are pass-through wavelengths or add wavelengths. Then, optical power adjustment starts. The DWC/WSS adjusts the optical power of pass-through

iManager U2000 LCT




55



wavelengths, and the optical attenuation adjustment board adjusts the optical power of add

wavelengths based on wavelength labels.

l Configure pre-alerts for optical power at ports.

board at the upstream station to adjust the optical power of the corresponding channels. In

this manner, the optical signal noise ratio (OSNR) of each channel at the receive end is

equalized.

l Configure pre-alerts for optical power at ports.

Dispersion Compensationl The G.652 and G.655 fibers have positive dispersion coefficients and positive dispersion

slopes in 1550 nm window. After an optical signal is transmitted over a certain distance,

the accumulation of positive dispersion broadens the optical signal pulse and seriously

affects the transmission performance. To minimize this effect, a negative DCM is used on

networks. It uses negative dispersion to compensate the positive dispersion of fibers, so as

to maintain the original signal pulse.

l The OEQ NE can apply dispersion compensation to each band to reach dispersion

equalization.

Wavelength Monitoring

l Set the WTR time for a PTP clock source.

l Set the PTP clock source priority.

ACR Clock Configuration

U2000 LCT supports the clock domain. The ACR clock can be configured as the system clock

source.

Board-Level Protection Configuration


l Configure TPS protection of a sub-board.

l Configure board 1+1 protection for the SCC and cross-connect boards.

l Check the switching status.

l Perform protection switching.

LAG/MC LAG Configuration

A LAG aggregates multiple Ethernet physical links to form a logical link of faster rate for

transmitting data. This function improves the link availability and increases link capacity.

The MC LAG supports the ability to share load between aggregation group devices.

The U2000 LCT supports configuring the following LAG/MC LAG attributes:

l Configure the load sharing type, including sharing and non-sharing.

l

Configure the LAG type, including manual and static.l Configure the load sharing hash algorithm of the LAG.

l Configure the port priority and system priority of the LAG.

MSTP Configuration

The MSTP can be used to clear loops in a network. The MSTP uses a specific algorithm to block

some redundant trails and change a loop network to a non-loop tree network. This function

prevents packet increase in a loop network and generation of broadcast storms in an endless

cycle. Different from the STP and RSTP, the MSTP can forward data according to VLAN packets

and realize load balance of VLAN data.

The U2000 LCT supports configuring the following MSTP attributes:

l Configure parameters of port groups and bridges.

l Configure CIST and MSTI parameters.

l Query CIST status and MSTI status.

IGMP Snooping Configuration

IGMP Snooping is the multicast constraint scheme that runs on the Layer-2 equipment, and is

used to manage and control multicast groups.

The U2000 LCT supports the ability to configure IGMP snooping for E-LAN services and provides the following functions:

iManager U2000 LCT




67



l Configure IGMP Snooping protocol parameters.

l Configure quick leave ports.

l Manage routes.

lConfigure route member ports.

l Query statistic information of IGMP protocol packets.

BFD Configuration

Bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) can be used to check the Ethernet link status.

BFD is a simple Hello protocol. It is similar to the neighbor check of those famous protocols in

many aspects. A pair of systems periodically sends detection packets on the channel on which

session between the two systems is created. If a system does not receive any detection packet

from the opposite end in a specific time, the system regards that a failure occurs in some part of

the bidirectional channel to the adjacent system.

The U2000 LCT supports the functions of performing the BFD detection on IP/GRE tunnels

and the inter gateway protocol (IGP).

LPT Configuration

LPT is used to return the remote-end link status to the near end. The near-end equipment performs

operations depending on the remote-end link status. When the intermediate transmission network

of the services becomes faulty, the LPT informs the access equipment at both ends of the

transmission network to enable the backup network. That ensures the normal transmission of

the important data.

Synchronization Protocol Configuration

In the application scenario of dual-homing, the status of the peer equipment needs to be obtained

either for the MC LAG or for the cross-MC LMSP. Meanwhile, the actions on both sides need

to be negotiated based on different fault cases. With the method of adding information of the

peer end, a channel is established for control status synchronization with the peer end. In this

manner, the control packets can be transmitted and received through the channel and link fault

detection can be performed.

LMSP/MC LMSP Configuration

Linear MSP protection contains 1+1 linear MSP and 1:N linear MSP. They use the protection

channel to protect services that are transmitted on the working channel. When the working

channel fails, services are switched to the protection channel. The linear MSP applies to the POS

interface and structured STM interface.

The multi-chassis (MC) LMSP can implement the LMSP among NEs.

The U2000 LCT supports the following functions of LMSP/MC LMSP configuration:

l Create a linear MSP.

l Check the linear MSP switching status.

l Perform linear MSP switching.

iManager U2000 LCT




68



QoS Configuration

QoS indicates the performance of the data flow that travels through a network. The QoS is used

to ensure end-to-end service quality. The QoS cannot increase the bandwidth, but it can minimize

the delay and jitter in the network by reasonably allocating and monitoring network resources.

In this way, the quality of important services is ensured.

The DiffServ (DS) domain consists of a group of network nodes that enable the DiffServ

function, that is, DS nodes. In a DS domain, all DS nodes use the same service provision policy

to realize the same per-hop behavior (PHB). The DS nodes are classified into edge DS nodes

and internal DS nodes. The edge DS nodes usually perform complex flow classification on the

traffic that enters the DS domain. Traffic of different types is marked with different PHB service

types. For internal DS nodes, you need to perform only simple flow classification based on PHB

service type.

The U2000 LCT supports the following QoS functions:

l Configure QoS profile.

l Configure DiffServ domains.

l Configure ATM CoS mapping.

l Configure SVLAN DEI used flag.

l Configure simple flow classification and complex flow classification.

l Configure CAR and Shaping.

l Configure the color blindness mode.

l Configure the WFQ schedule policy.

l Configure the port WRED schedule policy.

l

Configure the port WFQ policy.l Configure the service WRED policy.

l To simplify the operation and share some common QoS configuration parameters, the

U2000 LCT supports creating QoS function point policy. The function point policies are

as follows: port policy, ATM policy, V-UNI ingress policy, V-UNI egress policy, PW

policy and QinQ policy. By using these function point policies, you can bind the CAR

configuration attribute, shaping configuration attribute, flow classification configuration

attributes, WFQ schedule policy, WRED policy and color blindness mode attributes.

l Configure CoS queue mapping.

l Supports the application of the QoS policy to multiple NEs.

MPLS Tunnel Configuration

The MPLS tunnel is the tunnel defined in the MPLS protocol. Independent from the service, the

MPLS tunnel realizes end-to-end transmission and carries the PWs related to the service.

See Figure 2-6. Unicast MPLS tunnel is mainly used to transparently transmit point-to-point

PWE3 services.

iManager U2000 LCT




69

containing the switching mode, revertive mode, wait-to-restore (WTR) time, and hold-off

time.

l Perform MPLS tunnel protection switching.

l Query the protection switching status of an MPLS tunnel.

MS PW Configuration

By creating multi step (MS)-PW to transmit services, you can save tunnel resources and transmitservices over different networks.

iManager U2000 LCT




70



PW APS/MC PW APS Configuration

As a network protection mechanism, PW automatic protection switching (APS) is intended to

protect the services on the working PW with a protection PW. That is, when the working PW is

faulty, the services on the working PW are switched to the protection PW. In this manner, the

services on the working PW are protected.

By using the MC PW APS function, you can implement the PW APS protection among NEs.

You can perform the following PW APS/MC PW APS functions on a per-NE basis:

l Create a protection group.

l Bind the master and slave protection pairs.

IP Tunnel and GRE Tunnel Configuration

If the equipment at the two ends of an IP network does not support MPLS tunnel, PWE3 services

can pass through the IP network by using the IP tunnel or GRE tunnel.

IP tunnel and GRE tunnel mainly applies to the Offload scenarios of mobile communication.

The U2000 LCT supports configuring bidirectional IP tunnels and GRE Tunnels on a per-NE

basis.

CES Service Configuration

CES is mainly used for service transparent transmission of TDM trail switching data in the PTN

network.

See Figure 2-7. The 2G/3G stations or Intranet line accesses the PTN equipment by using the

E1/ channelized STM-1 line. The equipment divides the E1 signals into pieces, encapsulates the

pieces into the Ethernet, and transmits the E1 signals to the opposite end by using the PW.

Figure 2-7 CES service application model

The U2000 LCT provides the following configuration functions for CES service creation:

iManager U2000 LCT

switched network (CESoPSN) and of structure-agnostic TDM over packet (SAToP).

l Configure QoS of the CES service.

l Configure idle timeslot recovery value.

l Configure CES service alarm transparent transmission.

l Select the tunnel where a PW is carried online.

ATM Service Configuration

ATM emulation service is mainly used to transparently transmit ATM services in the PTN.

See Figure 2-8. The 3G station accesses the PTN equipment by using the ATM IMA group.

The equipment encapsulates the ATM cells into the Ethernet, and transmits the ATM cells tothe opposite end by using the PW.

iManager U2000 LCT




72



E-Line Service Configuration

The E-line service is a point-to-point Ethernet service. The equipment transmits user packets

from the user side to the network side based on Port or Port+VLAN. In this way, user data can

be transparently transmitted in a point-to-point manner.

See Figure 9-4. Company A has branches in City 1 and City 3. Company C has branches in City

1 and City 2. Branches of Company A or Company C that are in different cities have data

communication r equirements. The PTN equipment can provide E-line services for Company A

and Company C, to meet their communication requirements. In addition, the service data can

be completely isolated.

Figure 2-9 E-Line Service

The U2000 LCT supports the following functions of configuring E-line services on a per-NE

basis:

l Create UNI-UNI E-Line services.

l Create UNI-NNI E-Line services that are carried on ports.

l Create UNI-NNI E-Line services that are carried on PWs.

l Create UNI-NNI E-Line services that are carried on QinQ links.

l Configure the service and the QoS of the corresponding PW when creating an L2VPN

service.

l Configure the V-UNI group.


E-Aggr Service Configuration

The E-Aggr service is a multipoint-to-point Ethernet service. The equipment uses several ports

to access services from the V-UNI side, and converges the services into one PW at the network

side for transmission. In this way, user data from multiple points can be converged into one

point.

See Figure 2-10 and Figure 2-11. One carrier wants to construct a 3G network. Services of each Node B are converged and transported to the RNC. The data between each Node B and RNC is

iManager U2000 LCT




73



regarded as one service. At the convergence point, the QoS parameters such as the overall

bandwidth are specified.

The U2000 LCT supports the following functions of configuring E-Aggr services on a per-NE

basis:

l Configure the VLAN forwarding table items of an E-Aggr service.

l Configure the service and the QoS of the corresponding PW when creating an E-Aggr

service.


iManager U2000 LCT




74




E-LAN Service Configuration

The E-LAN is a multipoint-to-multipoint Ethernet service. It connects to multiple V-UNI and NNI access points. It realizes packet forwarding and interconnection by using the MAC address

self-learning scheme of layer 2.

See Figure 2-12. The HQ of Company A is in City 3. Company A has Branch A in City 1, City

2, and City 3, and has Branch B in City 1 and City 2. Branch A and Branch B do not have business

with each other. Hence, the data should be isolated between the two branches. The HQ has

requirements of communicating with each branch and accessing the Internet.

Figure 2-12 E-LAN service

Different VLANs are used to identify service data of different branches by using the E-LAN

service. In this way, data is shared within a branch and is isolated from other branches. The

Internet data of the HQ is also isolated from the internal service data by using the VLAN.

The U2000 LCT supports the following functions of configuring E-LAN services on a per-NE

basis:

l Create E-LAN services that are carried on port.

l Create E-LAN services that are carried on PWs.

l Create E-LAN services that are carried on QinQ links.

l Configure the service and the QoS of the corresponding PW when creating an E-LAN

service.

l Configure the unknown frame processing mode.

l Configure the static MAC address.

l

Configure the disabled MAC address.l Select the tunnel where a PW is carried online.

Service Mirroring Configuration

In the case of the service mirroring, all packets that enter a certain port are duplicated and then

duplicated packets are transmitted through an observation port. In this manner, the normal

service is scarcely affected when packets of the mirrored service are captured and analyzed.

You can configure the service mirroring as follows:

l Configure the local service mirroring.

l Configure the remote service mirroring.

MPLS OAM Configuration

MPLS OAM is an OAM function of the MPLS network. This function can check the quality of

LSPs in an MPLS network. The MPLS OAM scheme can effectively check, acknowledge, and

locate a defect inside the network at the MPLS layer. It can report and handle a defect. When a

fault occurs, the MPLS OAM provides trigger scheme of protection switching.

The U2000 LCT provides the following functions of configuring MPLS OAM:

l Configure MPLS OAM parameters of a tunnel.

l Perform CV/FFD check.

l Perform LSP ping check.

l Perform PW ping check.

l Perform LSP traceroute check.

l Perform PW traceroute check.

l The FDI can be enabled and disabled.

Ethernet Service OAM Configuration

Ethernet service OAM is an end-to-end OAM function for services. This function can check thequality of Ethernet links that pass through multiple NEs. The Ethernet service OAM checks an

Ethernet link by sending OAM packets. The OAM packet is handled only at the MAC layer. As

a low rate protocol, the OAM protocol uses very small network bandwidth. Hence, this function

does not affect services carried by the link.

The U2000 LCT provides the following functions of configuring Ethernet service OAM:

l Create maintenance domains (MDs), maintenance associations (MAs), maintenance end

points (MEPs), and maintenance intermediate points (MIPs).

l Perform a CC check.

l Perform an LB check.

iManager U2000 LCT




81



3.1 Precautions for Using the U2000 LCT Safely

This topic describes the precautions for using the U2000 LCT safely. The operation precautions

that have to be taken to ensure correct operations are as follows:

l Do not modify the system time when the U2000 LCT is running. Set the time before

installing the U2000 LCT.

– To modify the system time of the server, exit the U2000 LCT server and restart it after

the modification.

– To modify the system time of the client, exit the U2000 LCT client and restart it after

the modification.

l Avoid modifying the name and IP address of the U2000 LCT server computer. During

installation, you need to change the IP address to 127.0.0.1. Otherwise, the U2000 LCT

fails to be started if you modify the system IP address of the server after installation. You

can change the IP address as follows: Select the server and click Modify Server. In thedialog box that is displayed, change the IP address to 127.0.0.1.

l On Windows, you must log in to the U2000 LCT server as the user you have chosen during

U2000 LCT installation. Do not change the user name of Windows.

l The data created on the NE is consistent with that on the U2000 LCT. When an NE is

configured and runs normally, you can store the data on the NE and the data on the U2000

LCT consistent through manual or automatic synchronization.

l It is recommended to synchronize the NE configuration data to the NMS and query the

latest NE data before setting the parameters.

l When a hazardous operation is performed, the U2000 LCT asks for confirmation. For

example: When you download the U2000 LCT data to the NE, it can interrupt the services.l The installation directory of U2000 LCT must contain only alphanumeric characters and

underscores. Otherwise, the U2000 LCT Online Help cannot be used.

l If you select a non-English language for an NE when maintaining it, the GUIs are in illegible

characters when you query the information about the NE.

l Ensure that no other data communication or transmission process is running on the OS of

the U2000 LCT server.

3.2 Starting or Shutting Down the U2000 LCTThe U2000 LCT uses the standard client/server architecture and single user mode. So, you are

3.3 Setting the Character Set of an NETo meet the global requirements, the U2000 LCT provides the function of setting or modifying

NE character sets to prevent the language change from resulting in illegible characters.

3.3.1 Character Set

This topic describes the GBK, ISO-8859-1, and UTF-8 character sets of the U2000 LCT and the

precautions of setting character sets.

Character Set Introduction

Character Set Description

GBK Chinese character set which indicates that the

NEs support only Chinese characters.

ISO-8859-1 Latin character set which indicates that the

NEs support only western-Europe characters.

UTF-8 Unicode encoding mode which indicates that

the NEs support Chinese, English, Spanish,

Russian, German, Portuguese, Italian,

French, and Arabic characters.

iManager U2000 LCT




84



Description of Character Sets on the U2000 LCT

l If the character set that an NE transfers to the U2000 LCT is different from the character

set of the interface data (NE source file) on the U2000 LCT, the data transferred to the

U2000 LCT is displayed as illegible characters. The data that the U2000 LCT applies to

the NE is also displayed as illegible characters, resulting in the read failure of the NE.Therefore, modifying character sets is not allowed. Character sets are set only when illegible

characters are displayed. The setting rules are as follows:

NMS Language Character Set

Chinese GBK

English ISO-8859-1

Spanish

Russian

GermanPortuguese

Italian

French

Arabic

UTF-8

l In the case of the MSTP, WDM, PTN/ATN, router, and switch NEs, if the character sets

on an NE are changed, the U2000 LCT refreshes the character sets in real time so that the

character sets on the U2000 LCT are the same as those of the NE. At the same time, the

U2000 LCT notifies the user that the NE character sets are changed by means of an event.

l In the case of a new NE, if the data on the U2000 LCT has illegible characters or the

language changes, you can query and modify the character set attribute of a single NE or

NEs in batches in the NE Character Set Management window.

l The character set of an old NE cannot be modified because it does not have the character

set attribute interface. In the NE Character Set Management window, if the queried NE

an old NE, the related record is grayed out.

CAUTION

Modifying character sets is not a commonly performed operation. Generally, it is not allowed

to modify character sets. If there is a definite multi-language requirement and the character set

needs to be changed to UTF-8, you need to transcode the data of original character set on the

NE to ensure that the original data is normally displayed.

Relationship Between Characters and Bytes

In user manuals, the description of the restrictions on entering characters in text boxes is specific

to only the English characters. For the restrictions on other languages, see the following table

and calculate the occupied bytes of each language.

A Service Ports Description

This appendix describes service ports of the U2000 LCT, related precautions, and how to query

the service ports.

A.1 Background

This section describes the service ports used by management systems.

A.2 Notes and Precautions

In the practical communication process, the source (the server) and the sink (the client) use

relevant ports. Usually you only need to specify the source port, and the sink port is dynamically

created.

A.3 Service Ports to Be Filtered

This section describes the service ports to be filtered.

A.4 Ports Between the U2000 LCT Server and the NEs

This section describes the ports used between the U2000 LCT server and the NEs.

A.5 Ports Between the U2000 LCT Server and the Clients

This section describes the ports used between the U2000 LCT server and the clients.

A.6 How to Query Service Ports

This section describes how to query the service ports.

iManager U2000 LCT

U2000 LCT User Guide A Service Ports Description



137



A.1 BackgroundThis section describes the service ports used by management systems.

To ensure the network security, you can take measures on the customer's network. The following

are the two cases that affect the network security:

l Security filtering settings such as routers or firewalls are configured in the network

environment where the NMS runs. When carrying out the project, avoid the service ports

used by the NMS being filtered by those security filtering settings.

l Some service ports providing system services are closed to prevent network or virus attacks.

Note that the service ports used by the NMS should not be closed, and otherwise the NMS

will not run properly.

A.2 Notes and PrecautionsIn the practical communication process, the source (the server) and the sink (the client) use

relevant ports. Usually you only need to specify the source port, and the sink port is dynamically

created.

Note the following during the project implementation:

l The service ports used by the NMS should not be closed.

l If there are routers or firewalls between the source and the sink, then check all ports used

by the source and the sink to make sure that they can be opened, and the source can

communicate with the sink.

A.3 Service Ports to Be Filtered

This section describes the service ports to be filtered.

In the security policy of the firewall, you must filter the traffic according to the IP address and

the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port number.

The TCP/UDP port number is used to split a datagram, and transfer the datagram to the proper

applications.

The TCP/UDP port range is 0~65535, which is divided into three segments:

l 0~1023: Identifies some standard services, such as FTP, Telnet, and Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP).

l 1024~49151: Assigned by Internet Assigned Number Authority (IANA) to the registered

applications.

l 49152~65535: Private port numbers, which are dynamically assigned to any applications.

A.4 Ports Between the U2000 LCT Server and the NEs

This section describes the ports used between the U2000 LCT server and the NEs.

While setting up a firewall between the U2000 LCT server and the NEs, you must enable portsas follows:

A

Alarm hold-off time Alarm delay includes start delay and end

delay. An alarm is not regarded as being

generated until the NE has been detecting it

for a period of time, and this period of time is

the alarm start hold-off time. An alarm is not

regarded as being cleared until the NE has

been detecting the ending of it for a period of

time, and this period of time is the alarm end

hold-off time. Setting the hold-off time can

avoid the generation of unnecessary alarms

due to misreport or jitter.

Alarm severity According to ITU-T recommendations, the

alarm is classified into four severities:

Critical, Major, Minor, Warning.

Alarm A visible or an audible indication to notify the

person concerned that a failure or an

emergency has occurred. See also Event.

Attribute Property of an object.

B

Binding In virtual concatenated payloadconfiguration, designating one binding

number to identify the VC4s of the same

virtual concatenated payload is called "bind".

If a fault occurs to one of the bound services,

all bound services will switch as a whole.

Bound path The VC Trunk refers to the 2 M paths which

are bound together to transmit Ethernet data.

The VC Trunk is an entity between the

Ethernet port and the 2 M path.

C

Configuration data The data that configures the NE hardware for

coordination between this NE and other NEs

in the entire network and operation of

specified services. Configuration data is the

instruction file of NEs, and it is the key for

efficient network running. The typical

configuration data includes board

configuration, clock configuration and

protection relationship.

Configure To set the basic parameters of an operationobject.

Connection point A reference point where the output of a trail

termination source or a connection is bound

to the input of another connection, or where

the output of a connection is bound to the

input of a trail termination sink or another

connection. The connection point is

characterized by the information which

passes across it. A bidirectional connection

point is formed by the association of a

contradirectional pair.

Connection A "transport entity" which consists of an

associated pair of "unidirectional

connections" capable of simultaneously

transferring information in opposite

directions between their respective inputs and

outputs.

Cross-connect slot To perform GE ADM, an OTU board with

that function has to be in a cross-connect slot.

Several successive cross-connect slots form a

cross-connect unit group. You can onlyconfigure cross-connections within a cross-

connect unit group.

Current alarms Alarms that do not clear, or has cleared but is

not acknowledged.

Current performance data The performance data stored in the current

register is called current performance data.

The current 15-minute or 24-hour register

(only one for each) is applied to collect the

performance data in the current monitoring

period. It changed within the monitor period.

D

DCC Within an STM-N signal there are two DCC

channels, one is the 192 kbit/s DCC-R

channel composed of bytes D1–D3, and the

other is the 576 kbit/s DCC-M channel

composed of bytes D4–D12. All NEs can

communicate with one another through the

DCC-R. The DCC-M is not the regenerator

section overhead and does not support

communications among regenerators, and it

is used to support communication channels of

more universal purpose. For example, it

supports TMN as a physical channel of ECC.

E

ECC Embedded Control Channel. An ECC provides a logical operations channel

between SDH NEs, utilizing a data

communications channel (DCC) as its

physical layer.

F

Failure The fault cause persisted long enough to

consider the ability of an item to perform a

required function to be terminated. The item

may be considered as failed; a fault has now

been detected.

Fault A fault is the inability of a function to perform

a required action. This does not include an

inability due to preventive maintenance, lack

of external resources, or planned actions.

H

History alarms Alarms that have cleared and been

acknowledged.

History performance data The performance data stored in the history

register and the auto-report performance datastored on the Web LCT are called history

performance data in a unified way.

I

IP address In the TCP/IP protocol, it is used to uniquely

identify the address of the communication

port, which consists of four bytes in decimal

digits, for example, 129.9.161.55.

Label A mark on a cable, a subrack, or a cabinet for

identification.

Layer A concept used to allow the transport network

functionality to be described hierarchically as

successive levels; each layer being solely

concerned with the generation and transfer of

its characteristic information.

LCT Local Craft Terminal. The LCT provides the

user with single-layer management network

solutions to the transmission network of up to

five NEs to realize integrated management of

multi-service transmission network. Usually

it uses the cross-over cable or serial port cable

to connect one NE, so as to configure and

maintain a single NE. See also Web LCT.

N

NE Explorer NE Explorer is the main operation interface

of the Web LCT. For easy navigation, the NE

Explorer window presents an expandable

directory tree (Function Tree) in the lower left

pane. The configuration, management and

maintenance of the equipment are accessed

here.

NE Panel NE Panel displays subracks, boards, and ports

in different colours depending on their status.In the Web LCT, most equipment

configuration, monitoring, and maintenance

are performed in the NE Panel window.

NE Network Element. NE includes the hardware

unit and the software running on it. Usually,

one NE has at least an SCC (system control

and communication) board which responsible

for the management and monitoring of the

NE. The NE software runs on the SCC board.

NM Network Management. In the

telecommunication network managementarchitecture, the Web LCT is an element

management system that supports all

functions at the element management layer.

See also Web LCT.

Non-revertive In non-revertive switching, there is a working

and protection line, board and so on. Services

remain on the protection line or board if the

switch requests are terminated; that is, when

the fault that caused them to switch to the

protection line or board is cleared.

O

Online help An indexed collection of information on all

aspects of the Web LCT. They can be

accessed at any time from the Help menu or

P

Pane A major separate area of a window or dialog

box, usually used for display rather than data

entry.

Path A trail in a path layer.

Performance register Performance register is the memory space for

performance event counts, including 15-min

current performance register, 24-hour current

performance register, 15-min history

performance register, 24-hour history

performance register, UAT register and

CSES register.

Performance threshold Performance events usually have upper and

lower thresholds. When the performance

event count value exceeds the upper

threshold, a performance threshold-crossing

event is generated; when the performance

event count value is below the upper

threshold for a period of time, the

performance threshold-crossing event is

ended. In this way, performance jitter caused

by some sudden events can be shielded.

Private line Both communication parties are connected

permanently.

Procedure A generic term for an action.

Process A generic term for a collection of actions.

Protection service A specific service that is part of a protection

group and is labelled protection.

Route The IP route selection is in table driving

mode. In each host and each router of the

Internet, there is a routing table that contains

information about how the service is

transmitted from the source to the sink, providing a basis for route selection. Ethernet

static routing in ET1 refers to the mapping

relationship between the Ethernet port and the

bound path. Its routing type includes port

routing and VLAN routing. Port routing: It

means configuring a route between the

Ethernet port and the bound path port, which

is usually used for point-to-point networking

communication; VLAN routing: It means

configuring a route between the Ethernet port

and the bound path port based on the VLAN

service. It can be used flexibly in point-to- point, point-to-multipoint or multipoint-to-

multipoint communication. The

implementation is to divide and converge the

data stream according to the VLAN flag of

the packet. As a VLAN flag can be added to

the Ethernet port, the equipment can be

applied more flexibly.

S

Settings Parameters of an operation that can be

selected by the user.Severity See Alarm Severity.

SF Signal Fail. A signal indicating the associated

data has failed in the sense that a near-end

defect condition (not being the degraded

defect) is active.

Shortcut menu A menu that is displayed when right-clicking

an object' s name or icon. Also called a

context menu.

Subnet mask Also referred to as the network mask off code,it is used to define network segments, so that

only the computers in the same network

segment can communicate with one another,

thus suppressing broadcast storm between

different network segments.

Subnet number Subnetwork numder is used to differentiate

the different network sections in the sub-

network conference. Actually it is the first

several digits (one or two) of the user phone

number. An orderwire phone number iscomposed of the sub-network number and the

user number.

Subnet Sub-network is the logical entity in the

transmission network and comprises a group

of network management objects. A sub-

network can contain NEs and other sub-

networks. A sub-network planning can better

installing the cabinet on the antistatic floor.

T

TMN Telecommunications Management Network.

The entity which provides the means used to

transport and process information related to

management functions for the

telecommunications network.

Tributary loopback A fault can be located for each service path

by performing loopback to each path of the

tributary board. There are three kinds of

loopback modes: No loopback, Outloop andInloop.

U

UAT Unavailable Time. A UAT event is reported

when the monitored object generates 10

consecutive severely errored seconds (SES)

and the SESs begin to be included in the

unavailable time. The event will end when the

bit error ratio per second is better than 10-3

within 10 consecutive seconds.

V

VC4 loopback The fault of each VC4 path on the optical fiber

can be located by setting loopback for each

VC4 path of the line. There are three kinds of

loopback modes: No loopback, Outloop,

Inloop.

VLAN ID Namely, it is the virtual LAN identifier. One

Ethernet port can support 4K VLAN routes,

and one NE can support up to 8K VLAN

routes.

W

Wavelength protection group The wavelength protection group is important

to describe the wavelength protection

structure. Its function is similar to that of the

protection sub-network in the SDH NE. The

wavelength path protection can only work

with the correct configuration of the

wavelength protection group.

WDM cross-connection Internal GE cross-connections for OTU

boards with GE ADM function, the source

and sink of which are optical ports at the

WDM side and the client side. The level for

WDM cross-connection is channel.

WDM service The WDM service is accessed at the client

side of the OTU board that can access SANservices.

Web LCT It is an element level management system for

the optical transmission network. It can

manage RTN and NG WDM serial optical

transmission equipment. See also LCT.

Working path A specific path that is part of a protection

group and is labelled working.

Working service A specific service that is part of a protection

group and is labelled working.

WTR time A period of time that must elapse before a –

from a fault recovered – trail/connection can

be used again to transport the normal traffic

signal and/or to select the normal traffic

signal from.

WTR Wait to Restore. This command is issued

when working channels meet the restoral

threshold after an SD or SF condition. It is

used to maintain the state during the WTR

period unless it is pre-empted by a higher

priority bridge request.
