Operating Manual (OMN) Getting started
2 Getting started
This chapter provides basic information to start working with the Local Craft Terminal
(LCT). It also describes how to establish a connection to the Network Element (NE).
2.1 Working with the GUI
This sub-chapter provides general operating information for the Graphical User Inter-
face (GUI), which is Microsoft Windows and English language input based.
2.1.1 Using the mouse
Both the left and the right mouse button are used when working with the GUI. The left
mouse button may be used for the following actions:
Select a function using the features available in a window (buttons, selection menus
etc.)
Select a menu item
Select a toolbar button
Confirm an action (e.g., Apply)
Double-click an item in a list to open the corresponding window
The right mouse button may be used to select a specific object in a window, and open
the corresponding context menu.
Many operations can only be invoked via context menus. The context menu displays a
selection of menu items which are relevant for the selected object in the given situation.
The available menus, context menus, and menu items depend on the users access
rights. The unavailable context menus or menu items, appear dimmed.
g Unless the text states otherwise, always use the left mouse button for clicking and
double-clicking.
2.1.2 Using the keyboard
Since the user interface is driven by context menus it is not advised to operate without
a mouse. Therefore, this manual refers to mouse control, i.e., it is presumed that the
user usually works with a mouse.
However, it is possible to use the keyboard to open the main menu or execute the
toolbar items. Hold down the <Alt> key and press the underlined letters to open the cor-
responding menu or execute the toolbar item. After opening a menu, select the under-
lined letter for the desired menu item or use the arrow keys to navigate through the
menus/submenus.
It is also possible to use the keyboard to perform the standard operations. Table 4
describes a selection of standard keyboard operations that are supported.
Keyboard operation Action
Ctrl + Space bar Displays context menu in the main window.

Operating Manual (OMN) Operation tasks
4 Operation tasks
This chapter provides task descriptions and additional information within the scope of
operating the SURPASS hiT 7080 system.
4.1 Performance management
The following sub-chapters describe performance management tasks.
The Performance Monitoring (PM) and signal quality analysis provide information to
detect and alert a potential problem that could lead to degraded performance before a
failure is declared.
Performance management provides the following monitoring functions for the SDH
cards:
PM (processing and reporting) of parameters.
Inquiry of current and historical values of the parameters.
Supervision of parameter thresholds.
For the Ethernet cards, performance management only provides the first two monitoring
functions.
The performance parameters are monitored as follows:
Current and previous values: 15 minute period and 24 hour period
Historical values: maximum 16 records for 15 minute periods, 1 record for 24 hour
period
In addition to the performance parameters already mentioned, Ethernet performance
also monitors 5 second performance data.
The monitoring functions are accessed and configured via the LCT.
Performance monitoring parameters
Depending on the supported protocols of the transponder, the following performance
monitoring parameters are supported:
SDH: supports the following regenerator section and multiplex section performance
parameters, counted according to G.829:
Background Block Error (BBE)
Consecutive Severely Errored Second (CSES)
Errored Second (ES)
Out of Frame Second (OFS)
Point Justification Count Negative (PJCN)
Point Justification Count Positive (PJCP)
Severely Errored Second (SES)
Unavailable Second (UAS)
No far-end PM parameters are defined for the SDH Regenerator Section.
Ethernet performance monitoring supports the following parameters:
Received Total Byte
Received Total/Good/Bad/Unicast/Multicast/Broadcast/Fragment Packet
Received Dropped/Undersize/Oversize Good Packet
Receive Good Pause Packet
Received 64 byte/65-127 byte/128-255 byte/256-511 byte/512-1023 byte/1024-

CSES
Unavailable Period (UAP)
Impact of other settings on performance management
Besides the specific performance management settings, the following settings must be
considered since they also affect PM:
Operational state: if the operational state of a shelf/card/port is Disabled, all corre-
sponding 15-minute and 24-hour PM processing is stopped:
the current 15 minutes values are cleared;
the current 24 hours values are not cleared but are frozen;
no action is done on previous or historical data.
After switching the operational state to Enabled the PM processing will re-start auto-
matically.
NE time: if the internal time of the NE is modified by the Network Time Protocol
(NTP) or manually, the 15 minutes/24 hours periods are adjusted with the new time,
i.e., the length of the period becomes shorter or longer. In case the NE time is
changed, the current 15-minute and 24-hour performance data will always be con-
sistent with each other.
Deleting an object: if a monitored object is deleted, its complete 15-minute and 24-
hour PM processing is stopped immediately. The corresponding history data files
remain in the database.
Card rebooting: if a card or the system is performing warm reboot or cold reboot, the
performance monitoring registers will be reset to zero. After the reboot, the perfor-
mance monitoring will be resumed.
The performance monitoring for a TP can be suspended (called as Non-monitor) or
resumed (called as Monitor). The default mode is Non-monitor.
4.1.1 Configuring SDH performance
The SURPASS hiT 7080 LCT provides the following SDH PM management functions
listed in Table 17.

4.5.8 Managing Link Aggregation Group
Link Aggregation or Port Trunk is a method of combining physical network links into a
single logical link for increasing bandwidth. With Link Aggregation the system can
increase the capacity and availability of the communications channel between devices
(both switches and end stations) using Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet. A set of
parallel physical links between devices which are grouped together is called an aggre-
gated link. The aggregated links also provide redundancy and fault tolerance if each of
the aggregated links follows a different physical path.

4.5.9 Managing GARP VLAN Registration Protocol
There are two kinds of VLAN membership configuration:
1. Static configuration of VLAN membership information via Management mecha-
nisms, which allow configuration of Static VLAN Registration Entries.
2. Dynamic configuration and distribution of VLAN membership information by means
of the GVRP. GVRP is a specific instance of GARP, thus the protocol processing for
GVRP is based on the GARP.
The purpose of the GARP is to provide a generic framework where devices are in a
bridged LAN. For a bridged LAN, the active topology is normally that created and main-
tained by the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP). The VLAN register/unregister and VLAN
declare/withdraw procedures are controlled by the GVRP State Machine.
There are several concepts that need to be illustrated first:
Registrar: The Registrar has a single timer, a leave timer, and three states.
Join timer: The Join Period Timer controls the interval between transmit Packet
Data Unit (PDU) events that are applied to the Applicant State Machine.
Flow Control: Select Enabled or Disabled.
PVID: Enter a port VLAN ID for the trunk.
Broadcast Rate
Limit (Kbps):
Select Enabled from the drop-down menu and adjust the
spin box to get the desired value.
Egress Tag Mode: Select Untag or Tag.


80 A42022-L5977-A153-01-7619
Issue: 1 Issue date: April 2008
Operating Manual (OMN) Operation tasks
Leave timer: The Leave Period Timer controls the period of time that the Registrar
State Machine waits in the LV state before transiting to the MT state. An instance of
the timer is required for each state machine that is in the LV state. The Leave Period
Timer is set to the Leave Time value when it is started or restarted.
Leave all timer: The Leave All Period Timer controls the frequency with which the
Leave All state machine generates Leave All PDUs.
To configure the GVRP, complete the following steps:
1 In the LCT chassis view, right-click a Layer 2 Ethernet card and select the GVRP
Management menu item from the context menu.
The GVRP Management window is opened.
2 Configure the following settings if applicable:
g The leave timer must be at least three times larger than the join timer. The leave
all timer must be larger than the leave timer.
In reality there might be several NEs in the network. The user must select
Enabled or Disabled from the GVRP Enabled drop-down list which should
match the settings of the corresponding port in the peer NE.
3 Double-click an item in the GVRP Port Properties list to open the GVRP Port Con-
figuration window.
4 Configure the following settings are applicable:
Click Apply to confirm the settings and click OK to close the window.

2 In the ACL Configuration window, the ACL Mode has two modes:
filter mode: When the data enters a port, its destination MAC address and VLAN
ID are checked in databases to see which port can lead to its destination. In the
filter mode, the frame will be dropped if the destination address belongs to the
local port. If the destination address is not found in the address database, the
frame is broadcasting to all ports belonging to the same VLAN except the
incoming port.
forward mode: When the data enters a port, its destination port MAC address
and VLAN ID will be checked. If both of them are found, the frame is forwarded
to the port and queued for output.
Select the desired ACL mode and click Apply to confirm the setting.

4.5.13 Managing Internet Group Management Protocol Snooping
A Layer 2 switch supporting Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping can
passively snoop on IGMP Query, Report, and Leave packets transferred between IP
Multicast Routers/Switches and IP Multicast hosts to learn the IP Multicast group mem-
bership. It checks IGMP packets passing through it, picks out the group registration
information, and configures multicasting accordingly. Without IGMP snooping, multicast
traffic is treated in the same manner as broadcast traffic, that is, it is forwarded to all
ports. With IGMP snooping, multicast traffic of a group is only forwarded to ports that
have members of that group. IGMP Snooping generates no additional network traffic
and therefore significantly reduces multicast traffic passing through the switch.

4.5.14 Configuring Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol
If there is only one VLAN in the network, a single STP works appropriately. If the network
contains more than one VLAN, the logical network configured by a single STP would
work, but it is possible to make better use of the redundant links available by using an
alternate spanning tree for different (groups of) VLANs. Multiple regions and other STP
bridges are interconnected using one single Common Spanning Tree (CST) regardless
of the number of VLANs. The idea is that several VLANs can be mapped to a reduced
number of spanning tree instances because most networks do not need more than a few
logical topologies. The Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) enables VLANs to be
grouped into MST Instances (MSTI), with each instance having a spanning tree topology
independent of other spanning tree instances. This architecture provides multiple for-
warding paths for data traffic, enables load balancing, and reduces the number of
spanning tree instances required to support a large number of VLANs. A collection of
interconnected switches that have the same MST configuration comprises an MST
region. The configuration of MST controls which MST region each switch belongs to.
The configuration includes the name of the region, the revision number, and the MST
VLAN-to-instance assignment map.
Configuring Common and Internal Spanning Tree
CIST comprises of a collection of the ISTs in each MST region, and the common
spanning tree that interconnects the MST regions and single spanning trees.
To configure CIST, complete the following steps:
1 In the LCT chassis view, right-click a Layer 2 Ethernet card and select the MSTP
Configuration > CIST Configuration menu item from the context menu.

4.6 Resilient Packet Ring management
RPR can operate on Synchronous Optical Network (SONET), SDH, and Ethernet to
provide efficient and flexible networking schemes. It is made up of dual unidirectional
counter-rotating ringlets named Ringlet 0 and Ringlet 1. Ringlet 0 is for clockwise or data
traffic from the east side of one card to the west side of another card. Ringlet 1 is for
counter-clockwise or data traffic from the west side of one card to the east side of
another card.
RPR provides two protection modes:
Wrapping: After a span or a station fails, protected traffic is directed at the point of
failure to the opposing ringlet. The two ringlets thus form a closed single ring around
the point of the failure.
Steering: The two stations at the two sides of the point of failure update their
topology databases first and then send TP frames at fast intervals to the other
stations on the ring. After a new topology database is stabilized, the source station
directs protected frames to the ringlet that retains connectivity to their destinations.
The main steps of creating and modifying RPR are described from the Chapter 4.6.1 to
4.6.6.
4.6.1 Configuring RPR WAN port properties
To configure the RPR WAN port, complete the following steps:

4.6.2 Creating an RPR ring
Creating an RPR ring is to create a cross connection between the west WAN port of one
RPR card and the east WAN port of another RPR card on a single NE.
If the RPR cards are on the different NEs, there are two steps to create the RPR ring:
1 Create the cross connection between the RPR card and an SDH card both on the
local NE and the remote NE.
2 Connect these two SDH cards on the local NE and remote NE by optical fiber.
For creating a cross connection, please refer to Chapter 4.2.1 Creating Cross Connec-
tion.

6 Administration tasks
This chapter provides task description and additional information within the scope of
administrating the SURPASS hiT 7080 system.
6.1 Data Communication Network management
The DCN system implements a TCP/IP based inter-NE communication system. It
provides an embedded network communication infrastructure for the MSTP systems
management system. It is an embedded sub-network of SDH network, which is indepen-
dent to the service traffic carried by SDH.
Figure 6 DCN structure
In Layer 2, PPP and MP are used.
PPP provides a standard method for transporting MP datagrams over point-to-point
links. PPP is comprised of three main components.
1. A method for encapsulating MP datagrams.
2. A Link Control Protocol (LCP) for establishing, configuring, and testing the data link
connection.
3. A family of Network Control Protocols (NCPs) for establishing and configuring differ-
ent network layer protocols.
Multi-link PPP supports the ability to extend the bandwidth between two NEs by allowing
multiple parallel point-to-point links to be bundled together into a single virtual high-
bandwidth pipe, which increases the effective bandwidth between the NEs and reduces
the latency.
In Layer 3, OSPF protocol is used. OSPF is an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) used to
distribute routing information within a single Autonomous System (AS). The Regenera-
tor Section (RS) bytes D1, D2, D3, and the Multiplex Section (MS) bytes D4, D5, D6 to

D12 are standard Layer 1 DCC in the SDH frame structure. High Capacity Overhead
Channel (HCOC) bytes 9/27 are also used in this product.
6.1.1 Configuring NE IP and Ethernet IP
Each NE has two types IP addresses:
NE IP: which is assigned to all DCC interfaces.
Ethernet IP: which is assigned to manage the Ethernet interface.
In the network, four related parameters are defined:
NE IP address: also named as Node IP address.
It is used as the global unique IP address of an NE, which represents the NE and
can be accessed by the LCT through DCC network.
A virtual DCC interface IP address. All PPP interfaces will share this IP address.
Ethernet IP address:
Used to communicate with LAN attached network devices.
The management interface IP address.
Ethernet IP subnet mask: The Ethernet management interface IP subnet mask.
NE gateway: It is the IP address of the router interface which is used for the default
NE routing.
Modifying NE IP address
To modify the NE IP address, complete the following steps:
1 In the chassis main menu, select the DCN > Change NE IP menu item.
The Change NE IP window is opened.

6.1.2 Configuring NE trap destination
SNMP is an application layer protocol that facilities the exchange of management infor-
mation between network devices. It enables network administrators to manage network
performance, find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth. SNMP
traps enable an agent to notify the management station of significant events by way of
an unsolicited SNMP message.
The NE trap destination in the SURPASS hiT 7080 network allows the system adminis-
tration client to communicate with the NEs.

6.1.6 Configuring OSPF
In OSPF there are several concepts that need to be introduced first.
1. Link State Algorithm (LSA) and Shortest Path Algorithm (SPA): OSPF uses the Link
State to describe the whole network. The state of the link is a description of that inter-
face and of its relationship to its neighboring routers. A description of the interface
includes, for example, the IP address of the interface, the mask, the type of network
it is connected to, the routers connected to the network and so on. The collection of
all these link states forms a link state database.
2. Areas, Area Border Routers (ABR) and Autonomous System Border Routers
(ASBR): OSPF introduces the areas concept to avoid link state packets flooding in
all networks. Routers, which belong to different areas are called ABRs, act as a
gateway between OSPF and other routing protocols or other autonomous system
are ASBRs.
3. Neighbors and adjacencies: Before a router accepts any routing information from
other OSPF routes, they have to build an adjacency on their interfaces between the
routers. When the adjacency is built, the two routers are called neighbors. Neighbor
is a special relationship between the two routers. The two routers which are neigh-
bors should have the same parameters such as: area ID and type, hello, and dead
interval.
g Only when the DCC Mode is Normal and the DCC Protocol is PPP or IP over
OSI(OSI Tunnel) for the corresponding card, then the OSPF settings are available
to be modified.
OSPF General settings
To configure OSPF general settings, complete the following steps:
1 In the chassis main menu, select the DCN > OSPF > OSPF General menu item.
The OSPF General window is opened.

6.1.8 Configuring GRE tunnel
GRE is a mechanism for encapsulating any network layer protocol over any other
network layer protocol. Tunneling provides a way to encapsulate packets inside of a
transport protocol. Tunneling is implemented as a virtual interface to provide a simple
interface for configuration. The GRE Tunnel feature enables network elements to trans-
port CLNS traffic over an IP network. A CLNS over IP enhances interactions with IP net-
works, allowing ESIS protocol packets in GRE encapsulation to be tunneled through the
IP address to connect the CLNS based networks over an IP overlay network.
The GRE tunnel includes two types of tunnels. One is IP over OSI tunnel and the other
is IP over IP tunnel.
g Only when the DCC Mode is Normal and the DCC Protocol is OSI over IP(GRE
Tunnel) of the corresponding card, will the GRE settings be available to be modified.

customer IP network has a router between the DCN and the TNMS system. Other-
wise, no static route is necessary (i.e., the TNMS system and the permanent
gateway NE are in the same IP network).
When accessing a specific NE in the DCN via a gateway NE (permanent or tempo-
rary), a route entry to the TNMS system/LCT (destination) is automatically created
in the specific NE via that gateway NE (next hop).
Route entries can also be used for reaching SNMP trap receivers via a permanent
gateway NE.

6.2.6 Managing synchronization
Synchronization information is transmitted through the network via synchronization
network connections. These synchronization network connections are in different syn-
chronization levels. Each synchronization network connection is provided by one or
more synchronization link connections, each supported by a synchronized primary or
secondary rate of SDH multiplex section trail. The timing references are those that have
been selected from the clock source as candidates for the basis of the system timing.
These references are prioritized and monitored on their quality, and they take part in the
synchronization switching procedure.
There are three Quality Levels (QL) of synchronization clocks defined by ITU-T. They
are listed below from the highest level to the lowest level.

Modifying the system clock settings
The NE's clock circuit can be used as an independent clock source. There are three
modes for this operation:
Normal mode: This mode is synchronized with external timing input or SDH Line
timing. The system traces the timing reference source from one of the reference
sources.
Holdover mode: When the clock circuit operates in a slave mode, all parameters,
such as frequency, phase, etc., are memorized. When the circuit loses the ref-
erence source, for example by line failure, the stored data are used for continu-
ous and seamless operation. Thus, transmission disturbances caused by abrupt
change of frequency and phase can be avoided.
Free running mode: The internal clock which runs without a reference source will
be used when no reference source is available.
To modify the system clock settings, complete the following steps:
1 In the chassis main menu, select the Configuration > Synchronization Man-
agement menu item.
