Safety Concerns There is the risk of damage to the technician‟s eyes by laser energy. DWDM lasers are usually “Class I Lasers” and that means that enough light power is present to cause eye damage or blindness if the person exposed looks directly into a fiber end  Laser products are classified in accordance with the regulatory bodies  The classification scheme is based on the ability of the laser emission to cause injury to the eye or skin during normal operating conditions.  Laser classification is dependent upon operating wavelength, output power and fiber mode field diameter  Automatic Power Reduction (APR) 

 Is a mechanism to automatically reduces power to prevent levels at an open fiber that could result in injury to personnel, or damage to equipment.

FOADM Topology  Fixed Optical Add Drop Mux (FOADM) optimizes for lowest cost by using static optical filters for multiplexing/demultiplexing  Optimization is obtained by offering two FOADM filter choices, a fullband 44/88/40/80-channel architecture (SFD44/44B/40/40B) and a scalable 5/8-channel filter architecture (SFD5/SFD8)  Static filters require that optical transponders need to be fibered to the correct wavelength ports on the filter faceplates, and any reconfigurability requires manual re-arrangement of the fibers  A FOADM line terminal configuration has one optical line at the ends of a point-to-point link where OT(s) terminate all wavelengths  FOADM must be manually managed/configured - powers are not automatically adjusted (FOADM End Terminals can be auto power managed; degree 2+ FOADM must be manually power managed) FOADM Configurations:  FOADM line terminal  FOADM hub  Multi-degree FOADM (2 degree, 3 degree, 88 channel)

TOADM Topology  Tunable Optical Add Drop Mux (TOADM) networks are designed such that any wavelength can be added or dropped at any site, and the network can also be reconfigured in-service to alter the wavelength routings  Because final wavelength routings are unknown at the time of network design and deployment, TOADM network design approach requires an any-network-element- to-any-network-element analysis for all possible wavelength routings  The Engineering and Planning Tool (EPT) provides a simple way to both specify a TOADM network design and to perform full network synthesis and analysis of design constraints TOADM Configurations:  TOADM rings  TOADM linear networks  Multi-degree TOADMs (1 degree to 8 degree, 44/88/40/80 channel)

TOADM Ring Topology  The typical TOADM topology is a ring in which lightpaths all begin and end on TOADM network elements. The lightpaths may be created using either 1830 TOADM transponders, or directly connected third-party ITU transponders.  A TOADM ring consists of two-degree TOADM NEs and, optionally, in-line amplifier  In order to support any-to-any connectivity in the ring, the through path around the ring is automatically balanced during network commissioning. The automatic balancing adjusts amplifier gains around the ring throughpath to ensure all channels leaving a given node do so at the designed power level  After the ring has been commissioned, automatic power management adapts to changes in the network to keep a given channel within provisioned ranges in small variations of 1 – 2 dB. Larger gain variations require end user intervention

The 8 channels are 1471, 1491, 1511, 1531, 1551, 1571,1591, and 1611 nm  The Static Filter CWDM 2/4/8 card performs optical wavelength multiplex/demultiplex operations for 2/4/8 consecutive ITU coarse channels out of total eight channels  When 1830 NE is configured to support CWDM, it shares all the same hardware as DWDM and is supported out of the same shelf. That is, a node can be on a DWDM ring with a CWDM spur. The major hardware differences are that a CWDM line uses CWDM filters, is not amplified, and uses an embedded GCC channel instead of an OSC for supervisory communications

All Rights Reserved © Alcatel-Lucent 2011

L2 - Management Interfaces

User Interfaces

Web User Interface (WebUI)  Provides web-based access to the network element (NE)  WebUI interface is accessed using Internet Explorer running on a computer that is connected via Ethernet to the NE, either directly or over a LAN  WebUI supports provisioning, administration, performance monitoring, and display of alarms and conditions from the NE  Provides a tool to assist in the initial installation and troubleshooting of NEs Command Language Interface (CLI)  A line-oriented user interface that runs on the NE (like Hyper Terminal)  User can access the CLI using a terminal device connected to the NE  CLI provides commands that allow the user to configure, manage, and monitor the NE, the NE interfaces, and the services running on the NE  Refer to the, 1830 PSS-36/32/16 Command Line Interface Guide Transaction Language 1 (TL1)  Full support of TL1 command interface for provisioning, reporting, and alarming  Refer to the, 1830 PSS-36/32/16 TL1 Commands and Message Guide

Communications Network

The basic communications network architecture for the 1830 PSS-36/32/16 includes all LAN interfaces, OSC interfaces, and GCC interfaces LAN interfaces include the OAMP, VoIP, CIT, and Extension Shelf (ES) connections Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC)  OSC carries node-to-node communication  The OSC is a separate optical channel, operating at the STM-1/OC-3 rate of 155 Mb/s, that transfers management and control information between the controllers of two adjacent nodes, regardless of whether any of the DWDM payload channels are terminated between those two nodes

General communications channel (GCC)  No OSC available in CWDM transmission, so the GCC0 bytes in the G.709 overhead are used for inter-node communication  For management connection extension to 1830 PSS-1 Edge Device

Gateway network element (GNE)  The network management system can manage an 1830 PSS-36/32/16 network while only connecting to a single 1830 PSS-36/32/16 NE. That NE is called a GNE and provides the management connectivity to all other 1830 PSS-36/32/16 NEs in the network

Shelf Provisioning (continued) Main Shelf One shelf in each NE can have the role of Main shelf  Designated by a rotary dial setting of 8, 1 (Shelf Role = Main Shelf, Shelf ID = 1)  When a new shelf boots up and finds that its rotary dial is set to 8 (left) 1 (right) rotary switch, it automatically provisions itself with AID = SHELF-1 and TYPEID = UNV. It then begins to perform the role of the main shelf Non-Main Shelf  A Non-Main shelf is pre-provisioned by user command specifying a unique Shelf AID and specifying TYPEID = UNV  Shelf number of the Shelf AID should be set equal to the expected rotary dial setting Example, if the pre-provisioned AID is SHELF-3, the shelf is expected to have a rotary dial setting of 0, 3. Note: the rotary switch is located behind the user panel cover PSS-32 and fan tray PSS-16.

Shelf Provisioning (continued) OMD/DCM shelves have no rotary dial mechanism. Instead, each OMD/DCM shelf is identified by a unique serial number which is stored on the RI EEPROM, and is also externally visible on the equipment label. Any provisioning of a new OMD/DCM shelf automatically provisions the contained SFD/DCM card. OMD and DCM Shelf Transmission Association  The transmission association between an SFD and the optical line equipment it supports is defined solely by an optical connection fiber assignment between SFD and CWR (FOADM type node)  The transmission association between a DCM and the optical line equipment it supports is defined solely by an optical connection fiber assignment between DCM and LD amplifier  The transmission association and the management association must agree; they must have the same modules as end-points

Shelf Provisioning (continued) Main Shelf One shelf in each NE can have the role of Main shelf  Designated by a rotary dial setting of 8, 1 (Shelf Role = Main Shelf, Shelf ID = 1)  When a new shelf boots up and finds that its rotary dial is set to 8 (left) 1 (right) rotary switch, it automatically provisions itself with AID = SHELF-1 and TYPEID = UNV. It then begins to perform the role of the main shelf Non-Main Shelf  A Non-Main shelf is pre-provisioned by user command specifying a unique Shelf AID and specifying TYPEID = UNV  Shelf number of the Shelf AID should be set equal to the expected rotary dial setting Example, if the pre-provisioned AID is SHELF-2, the shelf is expected to have a rotary dial setting of 0, 2. Note: on the1830 PSS-36 shelf, a rotary dial is located on each of the two the BTC modules. The lower 4 bits are set on BTC1 in slot 1 (42), and the higher 4 bits are set on BTC2 in slot 22 (43).

Shelf Provisioning (continued) OMD/DCM shelves have no rotary dial mechanism. Instead, each OMD/DCM shelf is identified by a unique serial number which is stored on the RI EEPROM, and is also externally visible on the equipment label. Any provisioning of a new OMD/DCM shelf automatically provisions the contained SFD/DCM card. OMD and DCM Shelf Transmission Association  The transmission association between an SFD and the optical line equipment it supports is defined solely by an optical connection fiber assignment between SFD and CWR (FOADM type node)  The transmission association between a DCM and the optical line equipment it supports is defined solely by an optical connection fiber assignment between DCM and LD amplifier  The transmission association and the management association must agree; they must have the same modules as end-points

Overview OTN ITU-T G.709 - Benefits

The implementation of the OTN Architecture in the WDM Equipment extends the transport control capabilities of the WDM optical channels. OTN makes leverage on the transport layers defined in the OTH in order to provide:  Mapping of a client signal of any rate (up to payload capacity) into containers at pre-defined bit-rates. This allows: • To map a synchronous signal (SONET/SDH) into an asynchronous one (WDM) • Client-independent networking  Embedded associated overhead information for management and networking purposes (monitoring, support for complex connectivity, protections, alarms, etc.)  Capability to support hierarchical multiplexing and concatenation

Network Surveillance NEs can be accessed by remote surveillance centers for monitoring and maintenance:  Useful for remote diagnostics of raised alarms and conditions  Enables remote-support to on-site personnel

Alarms are the primary indicators of problems:  NE views of active and historical alarms are available through Network Management System (NMS), CLI, and WebUI interfaces  NMS provides a graphical view showing a consolidated view of active and historical alarms for all of the network elements  WebUI and CLI provide alarm and condition reporting for the NE  Current and historical data of events, diagnostics, performance-monitoring statistics, and visual alarm indicators are available

Transmission supervision is implemented according to the specific functional model of the facility being supervised. Details on set of monitored points, detection criteria, and condition types are provided in the Alcatel-Lucent 1830 Photonic Service Switch 36/32/16 (PSS-36/32/PSS-16) Release 3.6.0 Maintenance and Trouble-Clearing Guide.

Fault Detection The NE provides the following fault detection functionality:  Fault monitoring • Each card continuously monitors its operation and can assess faults detected on the card. The appropriate actions are taken, such as protection switching, alarms, and fault indicator activation.

 Diagnostics • The network element uses various diagnostic programs to verify its operation. Diagnostics issues will cause an alarm to be raised.

 Performance monitoring • Monitoring the performance of traffic signals and system resources. These features collect statistics and metrics over time for certain parameters. When the value for a given parameter crosses its threshold, an event is raised to serve as a thresholdcrossing alert.

 Event logs • Alarms are specific categories of event logs. In addition to critical, major, and minor alarms, there are three categories of non-alarm event logs.

 Traps • Each time the network element creates an alarm, and certain event logs, it generates a corresponding SNMP trap and sends it to the NMS. The trap is also sent to any other external systems configured to receive them from the network element. 260 1830 PSS-36/32/16 TOP30003R3.6.0 Student Guide

CR/PROMPT

Critical used to indicate that a severe, service-affecting condition has occurred and that immediate corrective action is imperative, regardless of the time of day or day of the week

MJ/PROMPT

Major used to indicate a serious disruption of service or the malfunctioning or failure of an important NE entity. This alarm requires the immediate attention and response of a craftsperson to restore or maintain system capability. The urgency is less than in critical situations because of a lesser immediate or impending effect on service or system performance

MN/DEFRD

Minor used to indicate a condition that does not have a serious effect on service or for a condition that is not essential to NE operation

WARNING

For ETSI markets the PM TCAs will be standing conditions with an alarm level of warning. For ANSI markets the PM TCAs will continue to be transient conditions and not affect the LEDs.

Loopbacks

The two basic types of loopbacks are:  Facility (Line) loopbacks - The received optical external transmission signal on the target facility is capable of being looped from the port function input back toward the port function output. It is permissible to loopback the electrical signal of the optical interfaces as opposed to the optical signal. Each interface of a multiple interface port function is capable of being looped back independently  Terminal loopbacks - The electrical transmission signal on an optical interface port function is capable of being looped from the port function output back toward the port function input. Port functions include optical interfaces at various rates. The placement of the terminal loopback on any particular port function is a compromise between having the loopback be as close as possible to the physical interface and having the terminal loopback support transparent data flow

Performance Monitoring

Performance monitoring (PM) statistics provide counts or measurements of significant information that can be used to gauge the performance of the network element and the services running on it.  The statistics gathered are used primarily for the following: • To provide instant notification, via alarms, that acceptable thresholds for data such as CPU utilization or dropped packets have been crossed • To provide a historical view of the performance of the network element over a given period of time

 Performance monitoring functions are performed on physical and logical points within the 1830 PSS NE which represent the boundary with other NEs or external system. This allows user to define and monitor Quality Of Service at individual points in which local NE interacts with other network entities  For ETSI applications, the Single Level Threshold Crossing mechanism applies to performance parameters with accumulation period of 24 hours, while the Dual Level Threshold Crossing mechanism applies to performance parameters with accumulation period of 15 minutes.  The default severity for ETSI TCAs is displayed as a Warning LED on the USRPNL 271 1830 PSS-36/32/16 TOP30003R3.6.0 Student Guide

PM Bins and Intervals  Data is continually gathered and stored on each NE for the PM groups that apply to an interface or card • the data is placed into 15 minute and 24 hour (midnight to midnight UTC) bins • PM data is also placed into a raw bin. The statistics in the raw bin accumulate until cleared • At the end of each interval period, the PM data is moved to the subsequent bin. The contents of the last bin are discarded • Can configure each data collection point use up to 7 one day bins and 32 fifteen minute bins • Allows you to maintain a historical view of the performance of the card or interface up to 7 days

PM Thresholds  Attribute counters in the active bin (bin 0) get incremented or updated each time an event, such as a SONET/SDH errored second, occurs  Can configure and assign a profile to an interval to monitor the value of each attribute in the active bin and raise a log event when a certain threshold level is reached  Each PM group can have up to eight profiles, all having different threshold levels  Threshold levels you define in the profiles depend on two factors: • The interval length. For example, if you were gathering statistics for an interface over 15 minute and 24 hour intervals you would need to define two profiles, one that defines the threshold values for the 15 minute interval and one that defines thresholds for the 24 hour interval • The service level of the traffic using the interface. For example, you could create a profile with low thresholds for a premium service, and one with high thresholds for a best-effort service • TCAs clear action is done in the moment when the 24h measurement period end and is sent at the end of a 15min measurement

Automatic Power Adjustments Automated optical power management is a software system that controls variable optical attenuators in the 1830 PSS-36/32/16 to control the optical power levels on a per-wavelength basis Several subsystems comprise the power management system:    

Stored target powers and amplifier gain ranges Pack level control loops Add wavelength power adjustment loop Amplifier gain and set-point adjustment functions

When a system is commissioned, data is transferred to the network elements (NEs) in the 1830 PSS-36/32/16. This data includes the target powers per-channel at key locations in the NE and the expected minimum and maximum gains for amplifiers in the system

Adjustment Functions

 The ingress adjustment function adjusts the gain of the optical amplifier on an incoming line, at the ingress LD, to compensate the loss from the preceding node‟s egress point to the output of the ingress LD. Target powers at both the upstream node and the local node define the required loss.  The egress adjustment function adjusts the gain of the optional optical amplifier on an outgoing line, at the egress LD, to compensate the loss of the network element‟s through path components between the ingress LD output and the egress line output. The target power at the egress line and the ingress LD define the target loss.

Automatic Power Adjustments (continued)

The automatic power management system enables the following features:  Automatic compensation for loss changes in the network up to a limit, (after which the adjustment functions must be used by the user to adjust optical amplifier gains or setpoints).  Automated service turn-up.  One-touch commissioning using the NMS.  System power rebalancing using the NMS.  Automated network equipment upgrade tools using the NMS.  Alarms indicate when network events require the user to invoke a power adjustment function. Alarms also indicate if adjustments have failed and when a local pack control loop cannot maintain a target power. 277 1830 PSS-36/32/16 TOP30003R3.6.0 Student Guide

L6 – Wavelength Tracker

Using Wavelength Tracker to Monitor Services Wavelength Tracker is a technology used to:  Encode a unique identifier onto a signal as it enters the network  Detect the identifier at various points in the network The Wavelength Tracker identifier consists of a pair of numbers, called wave keys, that are assigned to a wavelength:  The wave key pair assigned to a wavelength is unique in the network  A unique wave key pair is assigned for each individual circuit, or optical trail, in the network  If there are two or more circuits in a network that use the same wavelength, each circuit is assigned a unique pair of wave keys. Applications:  Wavelength path power trace  Optical power management  Fault isolation

L6 – Wavelength Tracker

Encoding Wavelength Tracker Identifiers The Wavelength Tracker wave keys are encoded onto the wavelength for an optical trail at network ingress The wave keys for an optical trail are assigned when the optical trail service is created  Typically, the wave keys are automatically assigned by the NE software,1354 RM-PhM, 1350 OMS or a similar network management system  Manual assignment is optional but not recommended

The following actions are performed when the optical trail is created:  The wave keys associated with the trail are assigned and are encoded at the service endpoints (i.e., transponder, MVAC or SVAC). A different wave key pair is assigned for each direction  The wave keys assigned to the trail are propagated to each Wavelength Tracker detect point along the service path (as determined from the programmed fiber topology). Each detect point is then programmed to expect to receive a certain set of wave keys

Long Haul Wavelength Tracker  The 1830 PSS supports both "standard“ Wavelength Tracker (WT), for regional applications, and LongHaul Wavelength Tracker (LH-WT), for long haul applications  Long haul application with target reach of 2200km at 10G and 1100km at 40G  LH-WT is supported by the WTOCM card, which is connected to the external facing LD on an optical line, see following figure  In long-haul applications with the presence of SRS (stimulated RAMAN scattering) Wavelength Tracker WTOCM is required to accurately control power levels  Each WTOCM can provide LH-WT for any 2 LDs  Unkeyed optical channels are not supported by the WTOCM. Software will not allow the provisioning of an unkeyed service across an LD with a WTOCM, and will not allow a connection between a WTOCM and LD if there are unkeyed services on the LD  Each line within an optical node, and each endpoint on an OMS span, must be configured with the same WT capability, either long haul (with WTOCM), or standard (without WTOCM)  ILAs do not use WTOCM cards and are set to internal WTD mode off/off

Security Features The security features and functions can be grouped into the following:  RADIUS server support for User Authentication • RADIUS provides a centralized way of user login/authentication and management. A RADIUS server is an external entity (server) that keeps a centralized Database of user login, password and privilege information

 User Login management • Can be administrated from the NMS, WebUI, TL1 or CLI interfaces

 Encrypted Mode and Secure Shell • SSH provides encrypted access to an NE. An SSH server running on the NE is responsible for setting up an encrypted channel for each user session

 Crypto Key Management for Encrypted Data Exchange • The SSH server running on an NE uses an encryption key to encrypt/decrypt data exchanged between the NE and external entities (e.g. SSH client)

 Encrypted File Transfer for Database Backup/Restore and SW Download • Both Database Backup and Restore, and software download support SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) data transfer. In this case, the NE communicates to an external SSH server running on the DB backup and software repository machine

Terminology  TDM - Time Division Multiplexing - A technique for transmitting a number of separate data, voice, and/or video signals simultaneously over one communications medium by interleaving a piece of each signal one after another in time.  WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) - A means of increasing the datacarrying capacity of an optical fiber by simultaneously operating at more than one wavelength. With WDM, you can multiplex signals by concurrently transmitting them at different wavelengths through the same fiber.  DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) - A high-capacity version of WDM. The wavelengths used are defined by the ITU-T G.694.1 “ITU Grid”, with channel center frequencies typically spaced 50GHz apart.  CWDM - (Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing) - A lower-cost, less-dense version of DWDM that uses cheaper lasers and wider channel spacing. The wavelengths used are defined by the ITU-T G.394.2 “ITU Grid”, with channel center frequencies spaced 20nm apart.

Wavelength Terminology

 Wavelength - The length of a wave measured from any point on one wave to the corresponding point on the next wave, such as crest to crest. It is the distance an electromagnetic wave travels in the time it takes to oscillate through a complete cycle. We measure optical wavelengths in nanometers (nm).  Lambda - The Greek symbol lambda (λ) which is used to represent wavelength.  dBm - Optical power levels are usually quoted in terms of dBm. Power in Watts is converted to dBm by the formula 10log[Power in milliwatts/1mW] = x dBm.  By definition, 1 mW = 0 dBm. Power levels higher than 1 mW are +dBm, and power levels less than 1 mW are -dBm. For example 1 mW = 0 dBm; 0.5 mW = -3 dBm; 4 mW = 6 dBm. 423 1830 PSS-36/32/16 TOP30003R3.6.0 Student Guide

EDFA Characteristics 



Amplifies any optical signal within its operating range • Bandwidth depends on the design of the amplifier • Initially about 1530-1560 nm • L-band EDFAs also available Amplification is independent of the characteristics of the original electrical signal  Line  Coding scheme  Could be SONET/SDH signal, Gigabit Ethernet, etc.  EDFA has some limitations, such as build up of gain distortion, amplified Spontaneous Emission (ASE) and others

Appendix B – DWDM Overview

EDFA Characteristics  Erbium is a rare earth element that can be added to the glass of a short length of fiber  When an Erbium-Dopped length of fiber is pumped by a high energy at 980-1480 nm, the atomic process makes energy from excited electrons in the erbium available t light in the 1550nm  1550nm range photons with the excited electrons, the electrons give off photons of the same wavelength, phase and direction of the original photons  Gain profile depends on the incoming signal wavelengths and the signal power  Even though amplification is optical, the pump lasers require electrical power.
