Information Mapping

Release 1.4 Turin Networks Page v

InformationMapping

Traverse system documentation uses Information Mapping format. InformationMapping presents information in small units or blocks. The beginning of aninformation block is identified by a subject label in the left margin. The end of aninformation block is identified by a horizontal line. Subject labels allow the reader toscan the document and find a specific subject. Its objective is to make information easyfor the reader to access, use and remember.

Each procedure lists the equipment and tools, and provides step-by-step instructionsrequired to perform each task. Graphics are integrated into the procedures whenever

possible.

If You NeedHelp

If you need assistance while working with Traverse products, contact the Turin Networks Technical Assistance Center (TAC):

Inside the U.S.: 1-866-TURINET (866-887-4638) Outside the U.S.: 707-665-4400 Online: www.turinnetworks.com/technical.htm

TAC is available 6:00AM to 6:00PM Pacific Time, Monday through Friday (businesshours). When the TAC is closed, emergency service only is available on a call-back

basis. E-mail support (24-hour response) is also available through at:[email protected] .

Calling for Repairs

After a node is commissioned, you can configure the following type of information at

each node: node location description, alarm profiles and NTP server IP addresses.Alarm profiles are established to customize service-affecting and non-service-affectingalarm severities for the node.

Use this procedure to configure parameters for each node.

Volume 3, Section 1: Configuring EquipmentTiming Configuration


TimingConfiguration

Configure the timing source for each node in a domain. For each node, you canconfigure either external timing from BITS (Building Integrated Timing Supply) or linetiming from OC interfaces.

Typically, one node in the central office receives redundant timing signals from anexternal source (BITS reference). This node becomes the primary timing source for thenetwork. The other nodes receive the timing reference from optical interfaces. The

primary reference will be the shortest route to the primary timing source.

Synchronized primary and secondary timing inputs from the central office externaltiming source are connected at the Traverse main backplane and bridged to the GeneralControl Modules (GCM).

Use the following procedures to configure timing options for the node. Configure Global Timing Options , page 1-8. Configure External Timing , page 1-10 . Configure Line Timing , page 1-14 . Configure Derived References , page 1-15.

Chapter 2 Node and Timing ConfigurationNetwork Timing Example


NetworkTimingExample

In this example, the network is already connected and configured as a ring. The WestPorts are the optical ports on the GCM in Slot 15 on all the nodes. The East Ports arethe optical ports on the GCM in Slot 16. Node 1 receives a timing signal from theexternal clock. The primary line reference at Node 2 is Slot 15, the interface physicallyconnected to Node 1. The primary line reference at Node 4 is Slot 16, the interface

physically connected to Node 1. Node 3 can time off of either Slot 15 or Slot 16 because it is equal distance from Node 1.

Figure 1-2 Network Timing

At any node, if all timing references fail, the node will maintain timing from theinternal Stratum 3 oscillator.

Volume 3, Section 1: Configuring EquipmentGuidelines to Configuring Network Timing


Guidelines toConfiguringNetworkTiming

Use the following guidelines to configure timing in a Traverse network. Configure line timing in such a way that the primary reference is the shortest route

to the primary timing source. For derived timing, the Traverse can generate a timing signal to an DS1

multi-frame, a T1 ESF or a 2 MHz external reference.

For information on pinouts for each timing interface, instructions on how to connecttiming inputs from the central office external timing source, and how to connect timingoutputs from a node to the external clock, see Volume 2, Installation and Configuration,Section 4, Chapter 2Traverse System Timing Interface.

This section contains information on configurable timing parameters. For anexplanation of all timing parameters, states, and messaging, see VVolume 5, TransNavManagement System, Section 3, Chapter 2Timing.

You can establish up to four line timing sources based on your network requirementsand the number of OC interfaces in the node. You first select the references (up to four

per node), then you assign a priority to each one.

The node uses the priority 1 reference unless there is a failure on that reference. If thereis a failure, the node switches to the next priority. If all of the references fail, the nodemaintains timing from the internal stratum 3 oscillator.

Use this procedure to configure line timing from an OC interface for a node.

Module Configuration

Introduction You can customize certain parameters on each module (card) in a Traverse shelf. Thereare parameters common to all modules as well as parameters specific to each module.This chapter explains the following information for the cards supported in this release: Protection Groups and Card Configuration , page 1-17. Change Module (Card) Parameters , page 1-18 . Change DS1 Mapping Formats , page 1-19 . Change the BER Thresholds for an STS Path , page 1-21 .

These procedures describe how to change configurable parameters only. See Volume 5,TransNav Management System, Section 3 Configuring Equipment , Chapter 3Modules (Card) for explanations of all the parameters and fields on each card.

You can change parameters for each card: During the preprovisioning process. Upon discovery of the equipment, the

management server downloads the preprovisioned data to the node. After the equipment is discovered. If a piece of equipment has not been

preprovisioned when it is discovered, it arrives with default values. Change thedefault values on the Config tab.

ProtectionGroups andCardConfiguration

If you have configured a card as part of an equipment protection group, you can onlyconfigure parameters on the working card. Down arrows on selections are grayed outfor parameters on the protecting card.

Parameters on a port on a protecting card are automatically set to those configured for the same port on the working card. For example, if Line Format is set to M23 for port 1,slot 2 (the working card), Line Format will also be set to M23 for port 1, slot 1 (the

protecting card).

For information on creating equipment protection groups, see Section 2 Creating Protection Groups , Chapter 2Create an Equipment Protection Group, page 2-3 .

simultaneous transmissions on the link. Half: the port operates in half-duplex mode and uses CSMA/CD to

share access to the link.

of the link. See Volume 5, TransNav Management System, Table 3-2Auto-negotiation actions, page 3-47 to determine how the link

behaves based on the negotiated actions between the two ends of thelink.

Off: Link starts up and initializes with the values in the Speed andDuplex fields. Pause frame is always disabled.

Transmitter State : Displays whether the laser on a GBE or an ETH100FX port is turned on or off.

On (default). Off.

Integrity Control (ports with dedicated point-to-point Ethernet servicesonly): Monitors the status of Ethernet ports and the associated transportconnection. Applies when the dedicated point-to-point service connectstwo Ethernet ports on different nodes (not the same node) and must beenabled on both ports to operate. Disable (default): Link Integrity is not used on this port. Enabled: A failure on this port causes the remote port to be signaled to

shut down. A failure on the transport paths between the local andremote port causes this port to be shut down. A failure on the remote

port (if enabled as well) causes this port to be shut down.

Jumbo Frame Supt : Indicates whether jumbo frames are supported.Select one of the following: Enabled (default): Jumbo frame support is enabled. Disabled: Jumbo frame support is disabled. Received jumbo frames

will be dropped and no jumbo frames will be transmitted.

Jumbo Frame Size : Enter the jumbo frame size (available only when

Jumbo Frame Supt is Enabled). Range is 15229600 byte
