1.6.4 Laser This topic describes safety precautions for lasers.
WARNING When handling optical fibers, do not stand close to, or look into the optical fiber outlet directly without eye protection. Laser transceivers are used in the optical transmission system and associated test tools. The laser transmitted through the bare optical fiber produces a small beam of light, and therefore it has very high power density and is invisible to human eyes. When a beam of light enters eyes, the eyes may be damaged. In normal cases, viewing an un-terminated optical fiber or a damaged optical fiber without eye protection at a distance greater than 150 mm does not cause eye injury. Eye injury may occur, however, if an optical tool such as a microscope, magnifying glass, or eye loupe is used to view an un-terminated optical fiber.
Safety Instructions Regarding Lasers To avoid laser radiation, obey the following instructions: l
All operations should be performed by authorized personnel who have completed the required training courses.
l
Wear a pair of eye-protective glasses when you are handling lasers or fibers.
l
Ensure that the optical source is switched off before disconnecting optical fiber connectors.
l
Do not look into the end of an exposed fiber or an open connector when you are not sure whether the optical source is switched off.
l
Use an optical power meter to measure the optical power and ensure that the optical source is switched off.
l
Before opening the front door of an optical transmission device, ensure that you are not exposed to laser radiation.
l
Do not use an optical tool such as a microscope, a magnifying glass, or an eye loupe to view the optical connector or fiber that is transmitting optical signals.

1 Safety Precautions
Fans l
When replacing parts, place the objects such as the parts, screws, and tools properly. This is to prevent them from falling into the operating fans, which damages the fans or device.
l
When replacing the parts near fans, keep your fingers or boards from touching operating fans before the fans are powered off and stop running. Otherwise, the hands or the boards are damaged.
Carrying Heavy Objects Wear protection gloves when carrying heavy objects. This is to prevent hands from being hurt.
WARNING l The carrier must be prepared for load bearing before carrying heavy objects. This is to prevent the carrier from being strained or pressed by the heavy objects. l When you pull a chassis out of the cabinet, pay attention to the unstable or heavy objects on the cabinet. This is to prevent the heavy objects on the cabinet top from falling down, which may hurt you. l
Generally, two persons are needed to carry a chassis. It is prohibited that only one person carries a heavy chassis. When carrying a chassis, the carriers should stretch their backs and move stably to avoid being strained.
l
When moving or lifting a chassis, hold the handles or bottom of the chassis. Do not hold the handles of the modules installed in the chassis, such as the power modules, fan modules, and boards.
1.9 Other Precautions This topic describes safety precautions for removing and inserting boards, binding signal cables, and routing cables.
Removing and Inserting a Board
CAUTION When inserting a board, wear an ESD wrist strap or ESD gloves, and handle the board gently to avoid distorting pins on the backplane. l
Slide the board along the guide rails.
l
Do not contact one board with another to avoid short-circuits or damage.
l
When holding a board in hand, do not touch the board circuits, components, connectors, or connection slots of the board to prevent damage caused by ESD of the human body to the electrostatic-sensitive components.

3 Commissioning Preparations
3.2 Determining the Commissioning Method By using the U2000 for commissioning, engineers can adopt the network commissioning method. NOTE
In the following instructions for both types of commissioning methods, site commissioning and system commissioning are defined as follows: l Site commissioning refers to commissioning that is performed on a hop and sites at both ends of the radio link by connecting the commissioning tool to the NE at a single site. l System commissioning refers to commissioning that is performed on all the NEs in the network by connecting the commissioning tool to a gateway NE where it configures the commissioning data for each site.
Single-hop Commissioning The single-hop commissioning method is preferred for small-scale microwave transmission networks (for example, a network with only one or two radio link hops). By performing singlehop commissioning, you can complete all site and system commissioning items at a time. The major commissioning steps are as follows: 1.
On both ends of a radio link, power on the NEs.
2.
Use the Web LCT to configure all service data on the NEs.
3.
Use the Web LCT to complete the site commissioning items.
4.
Use the Web LCT to complete the system commissioning items. NOTE
The Web LCT is used for single-hop commissioning, and therefore this document does not detail how to use the Web LCT. For details about how to use the Web LCT, see the commissioning guide in the documentation package of the Web LCT version.
Network Commissioning The network commissioning method is usually used for large-scale microwave transmission networks. The major commissioning steps are as follows: 1.
On both ends of a radio link, power on the NEs.
2.
Configure site commissioning data by using the Web LCT.
3.
Use the U2000 to complete the site commissioning items at sites where services converge.
4.
Use the U2000 to complete the system commissioning items at sites where services converge.
3.3 Checking Commissioning Conditions Ensure that the equipment meets the commissioning requirements for the site or system prior to performing such tasks.

5.4 Aligning the Antennas Aligning the antennas is the most important activity in HOP commissioning. The alignment has a direct effect on the performance of the radio links. 5.4.1 Main Lobe and Side Lobes Engineers performing an alignment on an antenna should be familiar with the related knowledge of the main lobe and side lobes 5.4.2 Aligning Single-Polarized Antennas When aligning single-polarized antennas, engineers need to align the main lobe by adjusting the azimuth and elevation of the antennas at both ends. 5.4.3 Aligning Dual-Polarized Antennas When aligning dual-polarized antennas, engineers need to align the main lobe by adjusting the azimuth and elevation of the antennas at both ends.
5.4.1 Main Lobe and Side Lobes Engineers performing an alignment on an antenna should be familiar with the related knowledge of the main lobe and side lobes
Definitions of the Main Lobe and Side Lobes The electric field strength of the radiated power of an antenna varies in space. The differences of the power distribution can be shown in an azimuth diagram. Generally, there are the horizontal azimuth diagram for the horizontal section and the vertical azimuth diagram for the vertical section. Figure 5-6 is a vertical azimuth diagram. There are many lobes in this figure. The lobe with the strongest radiated power is the main lobe. The other lobes are side lobes wherein the first side lobe can be used for aligning the antenna.

Locating the Main Lobe Antenna alignment involves making the main lobe of the local antenna align with the main lobe of the opposite antenna. The purpose is to make the received signal strength of the opposite antenna reach the maximum value. The main lobe width of the microwave antenna is narrow, between 0.6° and 3.7°. For instance, in the case of a 1.2 m antenna at a working frequency of 23 GHz, the azimuth is only 0.9° when the signal level drops from the signal peak to zero. Once a signal is detected, very small alignment adjustments are required to locate the main lobe. Antenna movement across the main lobe results in a rapid rise and fall in the signal level. Whether the main lobe is aligned properly can be verified by comparing the received signal peaks. Typically, the main lobe signal peak is 20-25 dB higher than the first side lobe signal peak. Figure 5-7 shows the head-on view of a free-space model for radio propagation with concentric rings of side lobe peaks and troughs radiating outward from the main lobe.

Tracking Path Side lobe signal readings are sometimes mistaken for main lobe readings when signals are tracked on different elevation (or azimuth). Figure 5-8 shows a horizontal radio propagation model of the antenna, and signal levels at three different elevation positions (1-7 represent the measured signal level values of the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) port of the ODU).

Line AA' indicates that the main lobe of the antenna is almost aligned properly. The main lobe is at point 2, and the first side lobes are at points 1 and 3. Slightly adjust the azimuth of the antenna at point 2 until the peak signal appears.
l
Line BB' indicates that the elevation of the antenna slightly deviates from the main lobe. The signal peaks appear at points 4 and 5. The signal peak at point 4 is higher than the signal peak at point 5 because of the antenna characteristics. As a result, point 4 may be mistaken for the peak point of the main lobe signal. The correct method is to set the azimuth of the antenna to the middle position between the two signal peaks. Then, adjust the elevation of the antenna until the three signal peaks of line AA' appear. Slightly adjust the elevation and azimuth of the antenna at point 2 until the peak signal appears.
l
Line CC' indicates that the elevation of the antenna completely deviates from the main lobe and is almost aligned with the first side lobe. The signal peak of the first side lobe at point 6 and the signal peak of the first side lobe at point 7 appear as one signal peak. As a result, points 6 and 7 may be mistaken for the peak point of the main lobe signal. The correct method is to set the azimuth of the antenna to the middle of points 6 and 7. Then, adjust the elevation of the antenna until the three signal peaks of line AA' appear. Slightly adjust the elevation and azimuth of the antenna at point 2 until the peak signal appears.
When the side lobe peak at one side is higher than the side lobe peak at the other side, as shown in Figure 5-9, a common error is moving the antenna left to right along line DD', or top to bottom along line EE'. As a result, point 1 may be mistaken for the peak point of the main lobe signal. The correct method is to adjust the elevation in the middle of points 1 and 2 or the azimuth in the middle of points 1 and 3. Several adjustments are required so that the three signal peaks of line AA' can appear. Slightly adjust the elevation and azimuth of the antenna at point 2 as shown in Figure 5-8 until the peak signal appears.

Use the multimeter to measure VBNC. At the local end, rotate the antenna widely in the horizontal direction. When you rotate the antenna, the tested signal peaks may be as follows: l Three signal peaks are tracked, for example, line AA' in Figure 5-8. In this case, adjust the azimuth of the antenna to the peak position at point 2 as shown in Figure 5-8. l Two signal peaks are tracked, for example, line BB' in Figure 5-8. In this case, adjust the azimuth of the antenna to the middle of points 4 and 5 as shown in Figure 5-8. Then, adjust the elevation of the antenna so that the three signal peaks in the case of line AA' can appear. Adjust the antenna to the peak position at point 2 as shown in Figure 5-8. l One signal peak is tracked, for example, line CC' in Figure 5-8. In this case, adjust the azimuth of the antenna to the middle of points 6 and 7 as shown in Figure 5-8. Then, adjust the elevation of the antenna so that the three signal peaks in the case of line AA' can appear. Adjust the antenna to the peak position at point 2 as shown in Figure 5-8.
3.
Slightly adjust the elevation and azimuth at point 2 as shown in Figure 5-8 until VBNC reaches the peak within the tracked range.
4.
Adjust the antenna until the VBNC voltage reaches the peak value. Then, fix the antenna at the local end. NOTE
When you tighten the antenna, ensure that the VBNC voltage remains at the peak value.

7.1 Basic Concepts Before configuring networkwide service data, be familiar with related basic concepts. 7.1.1 DCN The network management system (NMS) communicates with a transmission network element (NE) through the data communication network (DCN) to manage and maintain the NE. 7.1.2 GNE and Non-GNE A gateway NE (GNE) refers to an NE whose application layer communicates directly with the NMS application layer. A non-GNE refers to an NE whose application layer communicates with the NMS application layer by forwarding data through the GNE application layer. 7.1.3 NE ID and NE IP Address The ID and IP address are the unique NE on the DCN. 7.1.4 Physical Boards and Logical Boards The NE software and NMS consider a physical board as one or more logical boards when managing the physical board. 7.1.5 Adaptive Modulation The adaptive modulation (AM) technology adjusts the modulation scheme automatically based on channel quality. 7.1.6 CCDP and XPIC The co-channel dual-polarization (CCDP) and cross-polarization interference cancellation (XPIC) technologies are developed based on microwave polarization characteristics. The CCDP, wherein two signals are transmitted over two orthogonal polarization waves, doubles the transmission capacity; the XPIC cancels the cross-polarization interference between the two polarization waves. 7.1.7 RF Configuration Modes The OptiX RTN 950 supports four RF configuration modes, namely, 1+0 non-protection configuration, N+0 non-protection configuration, 1+1 protection configuration and crosspolarization interference cancellation (XPIC) configuration. 7.1.8 Ethernet Port Numbers On the NMS, Ethernet ports are represented by PORTs. 7.1.9 IF_ETH Port IF boards used in IP radio use their IF_ETH ports to receive services from and transmit services to the packet plane. 7.1.10 Auto-Negotiation The auto-negotiation function allows the network equipment to send information about its supported working mode to the opposite end of the network and to receive corresponding information that the opposite end may transfer. 7.1.11 Flow Control Function When the equipment fails to handle the traffic received at the port due to poor data processing/ transferring capability, the line becomes congested. This also causes buffer overflow and therefore some packets will be discarded. To reduce the number of packets to be discarded, take appropriate flow control measures. 7.1.12 MAC Address Table Management 7-2

The entries in a MAC address table show the mappings between MAC addresses and ports. A MAC address table contains dynamic entries, static entries, and blacklist entries. 7.1.13 Split Horizon Group To separate services that are converged and to prevent a broadcast storm resulting from a service loop, you can configure a split horizon group for the E-LAN services at the specified nodes. After the configuration, the logical ports in one split horizon group cannot forward packets to each other. 7.1.14 Protection for Native Ethernet Services The OptiX RTN 950 supports three protection modes for Native Ethernet services, namely, Ethernet ring protection switching (ERPS), link aggregation group (LAG), and multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP). 7.1.15 Clock Source A clock source is a signal source that carries timing reference information. An NE implements clock synchronization, by using its phase locked loop (PLL) to lock the timing information of the clock source. 7.1.16 Clock Protection Modes The OptiX RTN 950 supports clock source protection based on priorities, synchronization status message (SSM) protection, and extended SSM protection. 7.1.17 Clock Synchronization Policy Users plan an appropriate clock synchronization policy based on the network topology.
7.1.1 DCN The network management system (NMS) communicates with a transmission network element (NE) through the data communication network (DCN) to manage and maintain the NE.
Overview On a DCN, both the NMS and NEs are DCN nodes. The DCN between the NMS and NEs is called an external DCN, and the DCN between NEs is called an internal DCN. The OptiX RTN 950 supports several DCN solutions, including Huawei embedded control channel (HWECC), IP over DCC, and inband DCN.
IP over DCC Solution Figure 7-1 shows how network management messages are transmitted in the IP over DCC solution. Encapsulated in the IP protocol stack, different vendors' network management messages are transmitted in one of the following ways: through DCCs carried by microwave, or over the Ethernet between Ethernet network management ports or between NE cascading ports.

HWECC Solution HWECC is a DCN solution provided by Huawei. In this solution, the U2000 manages NEs by using network management messages that are encapsulated in the HWECC protocol stack. When the HWECC solution is used, network management messages are encapsulated in the proprietary HWECC protocol stack for transmission. The HWECC solution is therefore only applicable when the network is only comprised of the OptiX RTN equipment that supports the HWECC protocol stack. Figure 7-3 shows how network management messages are transmitted in the HWECC solution. Network management messages encapsulated in compliance with the HWECC protocol stack can be transmitted through DCCs carried by the IP radio, or transmitted over the Ethernet between Ethernet NM ports or between NE cascading ports.

Advantage
Disadvantage
IP over DCC
In the IP over DCN solution, DCN information is transmitted over microwave DCCs without using service bandwidth.
Limited DCN bandwidth is available.
In the inband DCN solution, DCN information is transmitted through microwave or FE/GE ports. This solution covers more scenarios.
Part of service bandwidth is used.
Inband DCN
DCN information cannot be transmitted through FE/GE ports.
VLAN resources are used.
Sufficient DCN bandwidth (512 kbit/s by default) is available. In addition, bandwidth expansion is supported. HWECC
HWECC is preferred as the DCN solution when the network is only comprised of the OptiX RTN equipment that supports the HWECC protocol stack. The HWECC solution is easy to configure and use.
As the HWECC protocol is a proprietary protocol, the HWECC solution is inapplicable to network management when the network is comprised of OptiX RTN equipment and third-party equipment.
7.1.2 GNE and Non-GNE A gateway NE (GNE) refers to an NE whose application layer communicates directly with the NMS application layer. A non-GNE refers to an NE whose application layer communicates with the NMS application layer by forwarding data through the GNE application layer.
GNE Generally, a GNE is connected to the NMS through a local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). Its application layer can directly communicate with the NMS application layer. One set of NMS needs to be connected to one or more GNEs. ECC communication between the GNEs may create an oversized DCN. To prevent this, disable extended ECC for the GNEs.
Non-GNE A non-GNE communicates with the GNE through the DCN channels between NEs. It is recommended that fewer than 50 non-GNEs are affiliated to a GNE. 7-6

7.1.3 NE ID and NE IP Address The ID and IP address are the unique NE on the DCN.
NE ID At the application layer of each DCN solution, an NE uses its NE ID as the NE address. Therefore, each NE must have a unique NE ID on the DCN and all these NE IDs must be planned in a unified manner. The NE ID has 24 bits. The most significant eight bits represent the subnet ID (or the extended ID) and the least significant 16 bits represent the basic ID. For example, if an NE ID is 0x090001, the subnet ID is 9 and the basic ID is 1.
NE IP Address An NE uses an IP address as its unique identifier during TCP/IP communication. In the DCN solutions (for example, IP over DCC and inband DCN) where network management messages are transmitted over TCP/IP, an NE IP address is used as the NE address at the network layer. Therefore, each NE IP address on the DCN must be unique and all these NE IP addresses must be planned in a unified manner. By default (which indicates that an NE IP address is never manually changed), this NE IP address is automatically changed to 0x81000000 + ID if the NE ID is changed. For example, if an NE IP address is never manually changed, this NE IP address is automatically changed to 129.9.0.1 when the NE ID is changed to 0x090001. Once an NE IP address is manually changed, the interlocking relationship between the NE ID and NE IP address no longer takes effect. It is recommended to configure the IP address of a GNE on a different network segment from the IP addresses of its non-GNEs.
7.1.4 Physical Boards and Logical Boards The NE software and NMS consider a physical board as one or more logical boards when managing the physical board. Table 7-2 provides the mappings between the physical boards and logical boards. Table 7-2 Mappings between the physical boards and logical boards

7.1.5 Adaptive Modulation The adaptive modulation (AM) technology adjusts the modulation scheme automatically based on channel quality. When the AM technology is used, in the case of the same channel spacing, the microwave service bandwidth varies according to the modulation scheme; the higher the modulation efficiency, the higher the bandwidth of the transmitted services. With the QoS technology, packet services are scheduled to queues with different priorities. The services in different queues then are transmitted to a microwave port by using the queue scheduling algorithms. Under all channel conditions, the service capacity varies according to the modulation scheme. Figure 7-4 provides illustrates how the modulation mode is adjusted according to varying weather condition.
7-8
l
When the channel quality is good (such as on days when weather conditions are favorable), the equipment adopts a high-efficiency modulation scheme to transmit more user services. This improves transmission efficiency and spectrum utilization of the system.
l
When the channel quality deteriorates (such as on days with adverse weather), the equipment adopts a low-efficiency modulation scheme to transmit only higher-priority services within the available bandwidth and to discard lower-priority services. If lowerpriority queues are congested due to insufficient capacity of the air interface, some or all services in these queues will be discarded. This improves anti-interference capability of a radio link and therefore ensures the link availability for higher-priority services.

The AM technology used by the OptiX RTN 950 has the following characteristics: l
The AM technology uses the QPSK, 16QAM, 32QAM, 64QAM, 128QAM, and 256QAM modulation schemes.
l
The lowest-efficiency modulation scheme (also called reference scheme or modulation scheme of guaranteed capacity) and the highest-efficiency modulation scheme (also called nominal scheme or modulation scheme of full capacity) used by the AM can be configured.
l
In AM, when modulation schemes are switched, the transmit frequency, receive frequency, and channel spacing remain unchanged.
l
In AM, modulation schemes are switched step-by-step.
l
In AM, modulation scheme switching is hitless. When the modulation scheme is downshifted, high-priority services will not be affected when low-priority services are discarded. The switching is successful even when 100 dB/s channel fast fading occurs.
7.1.6 CCDP and XPIC The co-channel dual-polarization (CCDP) and cross-polarization interference cancellation (XPIC) technologies are developed based on microwave polarization characteristics. The CCDP, wherein two signals are transmitted over two orthogonal polarization waves, doubles the transmission capacity; the XPIC cancels the cross-polarization interference between the two polarization waves. Microwave transmission can be classified into single-polarized transmission and CCDP transmission by polarization transmission mode. Issue 02 (2011-05-20)

l
In single-polarized transmission, a signal is transmitted over the horizontally polarized wave or the vertically polarized wave on the same channel, as shown in Figure 7-5.
l
In CCDP transmission, two signals are transmitted over the horizontally polarized wave and the vertically polarized wave on the same channel, as shown in Figure 7-6.
The capacity in CCDP transmission mode is double the capacity in single-polarized transmission mode. Figure 7-5 Single-polarized transmission
Figure 7-6 CCDP transmission
The ideal situation of CCDP transmission is that no interference exists between the two orthogonal signals that operate at the same frequency, and then the receiver can easily recover the two signals. In actual engineering conditions, however, regardless of the orthogonality of the two signals, certain interference between the signals exists, due to cross-polarization discrimination (XPD) of the antenna and channel deterioration. To cancel the interference, the XPIC technology is adopted to receive and process the signals in the horizontal and vertical directions, so that the original signals are recovered. The characteristics of the XPIC function supported by the OptiX RTN 950 are as follows: l
The XPD tolerance is increased, and the notch performance is improved.
l
The maximum difference between the IF cables in two polarization directions of an XPIC workgroup cannot exceed 12 meters in length.
l
The XPIC function is implemented totally based on hardware.
7.1.7 RF Configuration Modes The OptiX RTN 950 supports four RF configuration modes, namely, 1+0 non-protection configuration, N+0 non-protection configuration, 1+1 protection configuration and crosspolarization interference cancellation (XPIC) configuration. 7-10

1+0 Non-Protection Configuration The 1+0 non-protection configuration indicates that the radio link has one working channel and no protection channel.
N+0 Non-Protection Configuration The N+0 non-protection configuration indicates that the radio link has N working channels and no protection channel. The OptiX RTN 950 supports N+0 protection (1 < N ≤5).
1+1 Protection Configuration The 1+1 protection configuration indicates that the radio link has one working channel and one protection channel. The 1+1 protection configuration is classified into 1+1 HSB, 1+1 FD, and 1+1 SD. l
In 1+1 HSB protection mode, the equipment provides a 1+1 hot standby configuration for the IF boards and ODUs at both ends of each hop of radio link, implementing the protection.
l
In 1+1 FD protection mode, the system uses two channels with a specific frequency interval to transmit and receive the same service signal. The opposite end selects one from the two received signals. With the 1+1 FD protection, the impact of the fading on signal transmission is reduced. The 1+1 FD protection also supports the 1+1 HSB protection.
l
In the 1+1 SD protection mode, the system uses two antennas with a space distance to receive the same RF signal. The equipment selects from the two received signals. With the 1+1 SD protection, the impact of the fading on signal transmission is reduced. The 1+1 SD protection also supports the 1+1 HSB protection.
XPIC Configuration The XPIC adopts both the horizontally polarized wave and the vertically polarized wave over one channel to transmit two channels of signals. The radio link capacity in XPIC configuration is double the radio link capacity in 1+0 configuration.
7.1.8 Ethernet Port Numbers On the NMS, Ethernet ports are represented by PORTs. l
For the EM6F, PORT1 and PORT2 represent GE1 and GE2 respectively; PORT3 to PORT6 represent FE1 to FE4 respectively.

An IF_ETH port is an internal GE port on a general IF board or a general XPIC IF board. Ethernet packets are transmitted to the local IF board through its IF_ETH ports, and then mapped into microwave Issue 02 (2011-05-20)

frames in IP radio mode. Ethernet packets demapped from the microwave frames in IP radio mode are transmitted to the packet switching unit through IF_ETH ports. The main differences between an IF_ETH port and a GE/FE port are as follows: l
An IF_ETH port is an internal Ethernet port. It transmits and receives MAC frames and does not support functions on the PHY layer.
l
The bandwidth at an IF_ETH port is equal to the Ethernet service bandwidth that IP radio supports. Therefore, when the AM function is enabled for IP radio, the bandwidth at an IF_ETH port varies according to the modulation mode. NOTE
Internal IF_ETH port and external IF ports have one-to-one mappings. Therefore, an internal IF_ETH port, similar to an external IF port, can be regarded as a port connected to the packet plane.
7.1.10 Auto-Negotiation The auto-negotiation function allows the network equipment to send information about its supported working mode to the opposite end of the network and to receive corresponding information that the opposite end may transfer.
Auto-Negotiation Function of FE Electrical Ports FE electrical ports may work in four common working modes: 10M half-duplex, 10M fullduplex, 100M half-duplex, and 100M full-duplex. If the working modes of the local FE electrical port and the opposite FE electrical port do not match, the two ports cannot communicate with each other. Auto-negotiation effectively resolves this problem. Auto-negotiation uses fast link pulses and normal link pulses to transfer negotiation information about the working mode; lastly, the working modes of the FE electrical ports match at both ends. Table 7-3 lists auto-negotiation rules for FE electrical ports. Table 7-3 Auto-negotiation rules for FE electrical ports (when the local FE electrical port works in auto-negotiation mode) Working Mode of the Opposite FE Electrical Port

NOTE
As provided in Table 7-3, when the opposite FE electrical port works in 10M full-duplex or 100M full-duplex mode, auto-negotiation does not necessarily achieve full matching between the working modes of the FE electrical ports at both ends. As a result, some packets are lost. Therefore, when the opposite FE electrical port works in 10M full-duplex or 100M full-duplex mode, set the working mode of the local FE electrical port to 10M full-duplex or 100M full-duplex.

Auto-negotiation of GE electrical ports is similar to FE electrical port auto-negotiation. Table 7-4 lists auto-negotiation rules for GE electrical ports.

NOTE
As provided in Table 7-4, when the opposite GE electrical port works in 10M full-duplex or 100M full-duplex mode, auto-negotiation does not necessarily achieve full matching between the working modes of the GE electrical ports at both ends. As a result, some packets are lost. Therefore, when the opposite GE electrical port works in 10M full-duplex or 100M full-duplex mode, set the working mode of the local GE electrical port to 10M full-duplex or 100M full-duplex.
When the GE electrical ports at both ends work in auto-negotiation mode, the equipment at both ends can negotiate flow control.
Auto-Negotiation Function of GE Optical Ports GE optical ports support only 1000M full-duplex working mode. Auto-negotiation of GE optical ports is used only for negotiating flow control.
7.1.11 Flow Control Function When the equipment fails to handle the traffic received at the port due to poor data processing/ transferring capability, the line becomes congested. This also causes buffer overflow and therefore some packets will be discarded. To reduce the number of packets to be discarded, take appropriate flow control measures. Issue 02 (2011-05-20)

Half-duplex Ethernet uses a back-pressure mechanism to control flow. Full-duplex Ethernet uses PAUSE frames to control flow. Currently, half-duplex Ethernet is not widely applied; therefore, flow control implemented on the equipment is used for full-duplex Ethernet. The flow control function on the equipment is classified into two types: auto-negotiation flow control and non-auto-negotiation flow control.
Auto-Negotiation Flow Control When an Ethernet port works in auto-negotiation mode, use auto-negotiation flow control. The auto-negotiation flow control modes include the following: l
Asymmetric PAUSE toward the link partner The port can transmit PAUSE frames in case of congestion but cannot process received PAUSE frames.
l
Symmetric PAUSE The port can transmit PAUSE frames and process received PAUSE frames.
l
Both asymmetric and symmetric PAUSE The port has the following capabilities: – Transmits and processes PAUSE frames. – Transmits PAUSE frames but cannot process received PAUSE frames. – Processes received PAUSE frames but cannot transmit PAUSE frames.
l
Disabled The port does not transmit or process PAUSE frames. NOTE
On the NMS, the OptiX RTN 950 supports only two auto-negotiation flow control modes: Disabled mode and Enable Symmetric Flow Control (symmetric PAUSE) mode.
Non-Auto-Negotiation Flow Control When an Ethernet port works in a fixed working mode, use non-auto-negotiation flow control. The non-auto-negotiation flow control modes include the following: l
Send only The port can transmit PAUSE frames in case of congestion but cannot process received PAUSE frames.
l
Receive only The port can process received PAUSE frames but cannot transmit PAUSE frames in case of congestion.
l
Symmetric The port can transmit PAUSE frames and can also process received PAUSE frames.

7.1.12 MAC Address Table Management The entries in a MAC address table show the mappings between MAC addresses and ports. A MAC address table contains dynamic entries, static entries, and blacklist entries. l
Dynamic entry A dynamic entry is obtained by learning of a bridge through the SVL/IVL mode. The dynamic entry will be aged.
l
Static entry A static entry is manually added to the MAC address table by a network administrator using the NMS. The static entry will not be aged. Generally, the static entry is configured for a port if a device with a known MAC address is mounted to the port and this device transmits large traffic for a long time.
l
Blacklist entry A blacklist entry is a MAC disabled entry and is used to discard a data frame that contains a specified MAC address (source MAC address or destination MAC address). A blacklist entry is also called a blackhole entry. The blacklist entry is configured by the network administrator. The blacklist entry does not age, and is not lost after the Ethernet processing board is reset. NOTE
A routing entry is automatically deleted when that routing entry is not updated within a specified period. This occurs when no new packet from this MAC address is received to enable the re-learning of this MAC address. This mechanism is called aging, and this period is called aging time.
7.1.13 Split Horizon Group To separate services that are converged and to prevent a broadcast storm resulting from a service loop, you can configure a split horizon group for the E-LAN services at the specified nodes. After the configuration, the logical ports in one split horizon group cannot forward packets to each other. Figure 7-7 shows a typical application of the split horizon group. NEs on the network are configured with E-LAN services, and the east and west ports and service access ports are configured as mounted ports of a bridge. In this case, if a split horizon group is not configured at NE1, broadcast storm occurs due to a network loop as the east and west ports can forward packets to each other. If a split horizon group is created at NE1 and the east and west ports are configured as members of the split horizon group, the east and west ports do not forward packets to each other. Therefore, a service loop is prevented.

NOTE
l ERPS can prevent a service loop on a ring network. If ERPS is already enabled for a ring network, a split horizon group is not needed as it may affect ERPS operation. l On the OptiX RTN 950, only the split horizon group configuration based on physical ports is supported. Therefore, if a physical port is mapped into several logical ports and one of these logical ports is a member of a split horizon group, the other logical ports are added to the split horizon group automatically.
7.1.14 Protection for Native Ethernet Services The OptiX RTN 950 supports three protection modes for Native Ethernet services, namely, Ethernet ring protection switching (ERPS), link aggregation group (LAG), and multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP).
ERPS ERPS is applicable to ring physical networks and can provide protection for the E-LAN services between all the nodes on the ring network. Generally, when a ring network is configured with ERPS, the RPL node blocks the RPL port on one side so that all the services are transmitted through the ports on the other side. In this manner, service loops are prevented. If a section of link fails or an NE becomes faulty, the RPL node unblocks its RPL port so that the services are switched from the faulty point to the RPL port for transmission. In this manner, protection for the ring network is achieved. The Ethernet ring network shown in Figure 7-8 is configured with ERPS. Generally, the RPL node (NE D) blocks its RPL port that is connected to NE A, and all the services are transmitted over the link NE A NE B NE C NE D. When the link between NE A NE B becomes faulty, NE D unblocks the blocked port so that the services can be transmitted over the link NE A NE D NE C NE B.

LAG Link aggregation allows multiple links that are attached to the same equipment to be aggregated to form a link aggregation group (LAG) so that the bandwidths and availability of the links increase. The aggregated links can be considered as a single logical link. As shown in Figure 7-9, the LAG provides the following functions: l Issue 02 (2011-05-20)

The LAG provides users with a cost-effective method for increasing link bandwidth. The users obtain data links with higher bandwidths by combining multiple physical links into one logical link without upgrading the existing equipment. The bandwidth of the logical link is equal to the sum of the bandwidths of the physical links. The aggregation module distributes the traffic to different members by using the load balancing algorithm, achieving the load balancing at the link level. l
Improved the link availability The links in a LAG provide backup for each other dynamically. When a link fails, another link in the LAG quickly takes over. This process in which link aggregation starts the backup link only applies to the links in the same LAG and it cannot be performed on links that are not in the LAG.

MSTP The OptiX RTN 950 supports only the MSTP protocol that uses the common and internal spanning tree (CIST). The MSTP that uses the CIST can be used as a rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP). The RSTP is applicable in case of a network loop. This protocol adopts certain algorithms to reconstruct a loop network into a loop-free tree network and therefore prevents Ethernet frames from increasing and cycling in an endless manner on the loop network. On the OptiX RTN 950, the MSTP is used to prevent a network loop on the access side. See Figure 7-10. When the user equipment is connected to the OptiX RTN 950 through two different trails, you can configure the ports on the OptiX RTN 950 that are connected to the user network into a port group. This port group, together with the switch on the user network, can run the MSTP. If a service access link becomes faulty, the MSTP enables a re-configuration to generate the spanning tree topology, providing protection for the user network that is configured with multiple access points.

7.1.15 Clock Source A clock source is a signal source that carries timing reference information. An NE implements clock synchronization, by using its phase locked loop (PLL) to lock the timing information of the clock source. The OptiX RTN 950 supports the following clock sources: l
Radio clock source: refers to a clock source that is extracted from the received radio signal.
l
Ethernet clock source: refers to a clock source that is extracted from the Ethernet stream.
l
Internal clock source: refers to a clock source that is generated through the free-run oscillation of an NE built-in clock. The internal clock source has the lowest priority.
7.1.16 Clock Protection Modes The OptiX RTN 950 supports clock source protection based on priorities, synchronization status message (SSM) protection, and extended SSM protection.
Clock Source Protection Based on Priorities Clock source protection is provided based on the priorities specified in the clock source priority list. When a clock source with a higher priority fails, a clock source with a lower priority is used. As shown in Figure 7-11, the radio links between NE1 and NE2 adopt 1+1 HSB protection. NE2 needs to trace the clock on the radio links to keep synchronized with NE1. In this case, the clock sources extracted by the main and standby IF boards can be configured in the clock source priority list. The clock source extracted by the main IF board, however, has a higher priority. Therefore, if the 1+1 HSB protection switching occurs on the radio links, the clock can be switched at the same time.

SSM Protection SSM protection enables automatic clock source switching to prevent timing loops. The OptiX RTN 950 supports SSM protection. After SSM protection is enabled on an NE, automatic protection switching of clock sources follows these rules: l
According to the clock source priority list, the NE selects the clock source of the highest quality as the synchronization source.
l
If multiple clock sources have the same highest quality, the NE selects the source with the highest priority as the synchronization source.
l
The NE broadcasts quality information about the synchronization clock source to its downstream NEs and also notifies its upstream NE that its own clock source cannot be used for synchronization.
Figure 7-12 is a radio ring where SSM protection is enabled. When the network operates normally, the NEs on the ring select the clock source as follows: 1.
NE1 selects the external clock source as the synchronization source and notifies NE2 and NE4 of the external clock quality.
2.
NE2 and NE4 select the clock source from NE1 as the synchronization source and notify NE1 that the clock sources from NE2 and NE4 are unavailable.
3.
After determining that the clock sources from NE2 and NE4 have the same quality, NE3 selects the clock source with a higher priority (the clock source from NE2) as the synchronization source. In addition, NE3 transmits quality information about the synchronization source to NE4 and notifies NE2 that the clock source from NE3 is unavailable.
4.
After determining that the clock sources from NE1 and NE3 have the same quality, NE4 selects the clock source with a higher priority (the clock source from NE3) as the synchronization source. In addition, NE4 transmits quality information about the synchronization source to NE1 and notifies NE3 that the clock source from NE4 is unavailable.
5.
According to the clock quality in the west and east directions and configured clock source priorities, NE2, NE3, and NE4 determine that the synchronization source does not need to be modified. The clock source selection is completed.
When the radio links between NE1 and NE2 become faulty, the NEs on the ring select the clock source as follows: 7-20

NE2 selects the internal source as the synchronization source and transmits quality information about the synchronization source to NE1 and NE3.
2.

3.
After determining that the quality of the clock from NE1 is higher than the quality of the clock from NE3, NE4 selects the clock source from NE1 as the synchronization source. In addition, NE4 transmits quality information about the synchronization source to NE3 and notifies NE1 that the clock from NE4 is unavailable.
4.
After determining that the quality of the clock from NE4 is higher than the quality of the clock from NE2, NE3 selects the clock source from NE4 as the synchronization source. In addition, NE3 transmits quality information about the synchronization source to NE2 and notifies NE4 that the clock source from NE3 is unavailable.
5.
After determining that the quality of the clock from NE3 is higher than the quality of the internal clock source, NE2 selects the clock source from NE3 as the synchronization source. In addition, NE2 transmits quality information about the synchronization source to NE1 and notifies NE3 that the clock source from NE2 is unavailable.
6.
According to the clock quality in the west and east directions and the configured clock source priorities, NE2, NE3, and NE4 determine that the synchronization source does not need to be modified. The clock source selection is completed. NOTE
Even though SSM protection is enabled, clocks cannot constitute a ring during clock source configuration. For example, configuration of clock sources on NE1 prevents a clock ring, as shown in Figure 7-12.

Extended SSM Protection Extended SSM protection uses the extended SSM protocol to provide clock protection. The extended SSM protocol, developed by Huawei on the basis of the SSM protocol, introduces the concept of clock ID, which indicates that a clock ID can be defined for any clock source. The clock ID of the synchronization source can be transmitted together with the SSM and be used for automatic clock switching. The OptiX RTN 950 supports extended SSM protection on FE/ GE links and radio links. Issue 02 (2011-05-20)

After extended SSM protection is enabled on an NE, automatic clock switching follows these rules: l
According to the clock source priority list, the NE selects the clock source of the highest quality as the synchronization source.
l
If the clock ID of a clock source indicates that the clock source is from the local NE, the clock source is not processed.
l
If multiple clock sources have the same highest quality, the NE selects the source with the highest priority as the synchronization source.
l
The NE broadcasts quality information and the clock ID of the synchronization clock source to its downstream NEs, and also notifies its upstream NE that its own clock source cannot be used for synchronization.
The clock ID takes a value in the range of 0 to 15. 0 is the default value, indicating that the clock ID is invalid. After the extended SSM protocol is enabled on the NE, the NE does not select any clock source with an ID of 0 as its current clock source. Follow these guidelines when you allocate clock IDs: l
When the extended SSM is used, the clock ID of an external clock source cannot be automatically extracted. Therefore, allocate clock IDs to all external clock sources.
l
At all the NEs that are connected to external clock sources, allocate clock IDs to the internal clock sources.
l
At all the intersecting nodes of a ring/chain and a ring, allocate clock IDs to the internal clock sources.
l
At all the intersecting nodes of a ring/chain and a ring, allocate clock IDs to the clock sources that are transmitted to the ring.
l
Do not allocate clock IDs to clock sources different from the preceding four types. Their clock IDs are 0 by default.
l
Clock IDs do not determine clock source priorities.

NOTE
l When extended SSM protection is enabled, clocks can constitute a ring during clock source configuration. l Extended SSM protection is advantageous in complex clock protection network topologies, for example, in a network with dual external clocks. Therefore, extended SSM protection is used in only a few scenarios.
7.1.17 Clock Synchronization Policy Users plan an appropriate clock synchronization policy based on the network topology.
Clock Synchronization Policy for a Chain Network For a chain network consisting of radio links, follow these guidelines to plan the clock synchronization policy: l
If one clock source is input into the master (source) node (the clock source can be an Ethernet clock), configure this clock source for this node.
l
For the other nodes, configure the clock sources from their upper level radio links.
l
If 1+1 protection is configured for the upper level radio links of a node, configure two radio clock sources for this node. The clock source on the active radio link has a higher priority than the clock source on the standby radio link.
l
If a node has multiple upper level radio links (for example, the upper level radio links use the XPIC configuration), configure one radio clock source for each radio link. Allocate priorities to these radio clock sources depending on the radio link status.
l
Do not configure synchronization status message (SSM) or extended SSM protection.
Figure 7-14 shows the clock synchronization policy for a chain network. l
On the master node (NE1), one Ethernet clock source is input. For NE1, clock source priorities are allocated in descending order as follows:

7 Configuring Networkwide Service Data
NOTE
On the NMS, an IF_ETH port is displayed as Microwave Interface. An IF_ETH port is an internal GE port on a generic IF board or an XPIC IF board. Ethernet packets are transmitted to the local IF board through its IF_ETH ports, and then mapped into microwave frames in IP radio mode. Ethernet packets demapped from microwave frames in IP radio mode are transmitted to the packet switching unit through IF_ETH ports. Internal IF_ETH port and external IF ports have one-to-one mappings. Therefore, an internal IF_ETH port, similar to an external IF port, can be regarded as a port connected to the packet plane.
The procedures in the configuration flowchart are described as follows.

NOTE
High-priority services are services that request transmission guarantees. High-priority services are not discarded in AM shifts. Low-priority services are services that do not request transmission guarantees. Low-priority services may be discarded in AM shifts.
l
LAG is configured to protect the two GE links between NE1 and the BSC.
l
ERPS is configured to protect Native Ethernet services on the IP radio ring network.
l
Services from BTSs/NodeBs do not carry VLAN IDs. After receiving services from BTSs/ NodeBs, the IP radio ring network adds a VLAN ID of 100 to the services from BTSs and adds a VLAN ID of 200 to the services from NodeBs.
l
Ethernet services from the BSC carry a VLAN ID of 100 or 200. Before transmitting the services from the BSC to BTSs/NodeBs, the IP radio ring network strips their VLAN IDs.
l
DSCP values are used to identify the priorities of the Ethernet services between the BTSs/ NodeBs and the BSC.
To meet the preceding requirements, configure IEEE 802.1q bridge-based E-LAN services on each NE, and implement corresponding LAG protection, ERPS protection, and QoS processing for services.

7.3.2 Service Planning (Network) The service planning information contains the information about all the parameters required for configuring the NE data. l
In this configuration example, the IP radio ring network is comprised of OptiX RTN equipment only, and therefore uses the HWECC solution. The HWECC information is planned as follows: – Network management information is transmitted to the IP radio ring network through NE1. Therefore, NE1 is planned as the gateway NE. – All NEs (NE1 to NE4) implement DCN communication based on the DCCs over the IP radio. – To save service bandwidths, the inband DCN function is disabled for all FE/GE ports and microwave ports on NE1 to NE4.

7 Configuring Networkwide Service Data
NOTE
l In this example, the FE ports on all the BTSs work in auto-negotiation mode. Therefore, the FE/GE ports on each NE that receive and transmit services must also work in auto-negotiation mode. If the peer Ethernet port works in another mode, the local Ethernet port must work in the same mode. The working modes of the Ethernet ports inside the network are planned as auto-negotiation. l In this example, to ensure that the Ethernet frames that carry more than one tag such as QinQ can traverse the equipment, the maximum frame length is set to 1536 (bytes). If the equipment needs to transmit jumbo frames with a greater length, set the maximum frame length according to the actual length of a jumbo frame. Generally, if the equipment is directly interconnected with BTSs, the maximum frame length takes its default value (1522 bytes). l In this example, all the Ethernet services from the BSC carry VLAN IDs. Therefore, the tag attributes of all the ports on NE1 are tag aware. The Ethernet services from the BTSs/NodeBs do not carry VLAN IDs. Therefore, the tag attributes of all the ports on NE2 to NE4 are access.

7.3.7 Service Planning (QoS Information) The service planning information contains the information about all the parameters required for configuring QoS.
QoS (DiffServ) DiffServ (DS) is the basis for QoS. It is recommended that the VLAN priority or DSCP value of the BTS services be allocated according to the service type. Then, the transmission network creates the corresponding DS domain according to the allocated VLAN priority or DSCP value. Each Ethernet port involved in the service must use the same DS configuration. In this example, the BTS services are allocated with corresponding DSCP values according to the service type, and the NEs allocate the PHB service classes according to the DSCP value, as shown in Table 7-43. Each Ethernet port involved in the service uses the same DS configuration. Table 7-43 Service type and PHB service class

7 Configuring Networkwide Service Data
NOTE
l During the mapping of the PHB service class, CS7 or CS6 is not recommended, because CS7 or CS6 may be used to transmit Ethernet protocol packets or inband DCN packets on the NE. l Do not modify the default mappings for the DS domain because they already meet the network requirements. l Change the type of trusted packets for associated Ethernet ports in the default DS domain, because the Ethernet ports trust packets with DSCP values, instead of packets with C-VLAN priorities.
QoS (Queue Scheduling Policies) Generally, each Ethernet port involved in the service uses the same queue scheduling policy. Table 7-44 lists the queue scheduling policy used by each Ethernet port involved in the service in this example. Table 7-44 Queue scheduling policies PHB Service Class

QoS (CAR or Shaping for a Specified Service Flow) Generally, microwave backhaul networks do not require CAR or shaping because BTSs and BSCs already perform traffic control operations.
QoS (Port Shaping) If the Ethernet bandwidth planned for the aggregation link is lower than the total bandwidth of the aggregation services, you can perform port shaping at the edge node to limit the Ethernet service traffic that travels to the aggregation node, preventing congestion at the aggregation node. In this example, you do not need to perform port shaping.

Procedure Step 1 Select the NE from the Object Tree in the NE Explorer. Choose Communication > IP Protocol Stack Management from the Function Tree. Step 2 Click the Proxy ARP tab. Step 3 Set the enable status of the proxy ARP.
NOTE
l The proxy ARP enables the NEs in the same network segment but different domains to communicate with each other. l To realize communication between such NEs, the source NE sends the ARP broadcast packet to address the route to the destination NE. The NE with the proxy ARP function enabled checks the routing table after sensing the ARP broadcast packet. If the routing table contains the destination address that the ARP broadcast packet looks for, the NE returns an ARP spoofing packet, which enables the NE that sends the ARP broadcast packet to consider that the MAC address of the NE that returns the ARP spoofing packet is the MAC address of the destination NE. In this manner, the packet that is to be sent to the destination NE is first sent to the NE with the proxy ARP function enabled and then forwarded to the destination NE.

l When Working Mode is set to HSB, the equipment provides a 1+1 hot standby configuration for the IF board and ODU at both ends of each hop of a radio link to realize the protection. l When Working Mode is set to FD, the system uses two channels that have a frequency spacing between them, to transmit and receive the same signal. The remote end selects signals from the two received signals. With FD protection, the impact of the fading on signal transmission is reduced. l When Working Mode is set to SD, the system uses two antennas that have a space distance between them, to receive the same signal. The equipment selects signals from the two received signals. With SD protection, the impact of the fading on signal transmission is reduced. l When Revertive Mode is set to Revertive Mode, the NE that is in the switching state releases the switching and enables the former working channel to return to the normal state some time after the former working channel is restored to normal. It is recommended that you set this parameter to Revertive Mode. l When Revertive Mode is set to Non-Revertive, the NE that is in the switching state keeps the current state unchanged unless another switching occurs even though the former working channel is restored to normal. l You can set WTR Time(s) only when Revertive Mode is set to Revertive Mode.

Traffic shaping for an egress queue uses the single token bucket two color marker algorithm. The value of the CIR must be equal to the value of the PIR. In actual traffic shaping processing, only the PIR is valid. If the traffic shaping function is enabled, OptiX RTN 950 processes the packets in the buffer queue through the following methods when no packets are available in the queue. l When the buffer queue is empty, the packets are processed as follows: If the rate of a packet is equal to or lower than the PIR, it is directly forwarded; if the rate of a packet is higher than the PIR, it enters the buffer queue and then is forwarded at a rate equal to the PIR. l When the buffer queue is empty, certain burst packets can be forwarded if the rate of the packets is equal to or lower than the PIR in a certain period. The maximum traffic of the burst packets is determined by the PBS. l When the buffer queue is not empty, the packets whose rate passes the restriction of the PIR directly enter the buffer queue and then are forwarded at a rate equal to the PIR.

8.6 Managing the Clock To ensure the clock synchronization between transmission nodes on a transport network, you need to manage the NE clock. 8.6.1 Configuring the Clock Sources This topic describes how to configure the clock source according to the planned clock synchronization scheme to ensure that all the NEs on the network trace the same clock. 8.6.2 Configuring Clock Subnets For simple networks, such as chain networks, configure the clock source protection or only configure the clock priority to implement the clock source protection. For complex networks, such as ring networks or intersecting and tangent rings that are derived from ring networks, configure clock subnets and enable the standard SSM protocol or extended SSM protocol to implement the clock source protection. 8.6.3 User-Defined Clock Quality By default, the NE considers the clock quality extracted from the clock source as the clock quality. If the clock quality is zero (the synchronization quality is unknown), the clock is considered as unavailable clock. In the case of any special requirements, the user can define the clock quality for which the source clock quality and clock quality are zero. 8.6.4 Configuring the SSM Output Status After the standard SSM protocol or extended synchronization status message (SSM) protocol is enabled, the NE transmits the SSM to other NEs through the radio link or optical line by default. To prevent two clock subnets from affecting each other, the NE needs to forbid the SSM bytes from being transmitted on the link that is connected to other clock subnets. 8.6.5 Configuring the Clock ID Output Status After the extended synchronization status message (SSM) protocol is enabled, the NE transmits the clock ID to other NEs through the radio link or optical line by default. To prevent two clock subnets from affecting each other, the NE needs to forbid the clock ID from being transmitted on the link that is connected to other clock subnets. Issue 02 (2011-05-20)
