The OptiX RTN 950 provides an entire frequency band antenna solution, and supports the single-
polarized antenna and dual-polarized antenna with a diameter of 0.3 m to 3.7 m and the
corresponding feeder system.
There are two methods of mounting the ODU and the antenna: direct mounting and separate
mounting.
l The direct mounting method is normally adopted when a small-diameter and single-
polarized antenna is used. In this situation, if one ODU is configured for one antenna, the
ODU is directly mounted at the back of the antenna. If two ODUs are configured for one
antenna, an RF signal combiner/splitter (hereinafter referred to as a hybrid coupler) must
be mounted to connect the ODUs to the antenna. Figure 1-4 shows the direct mounting
method.
OptiX RTN 950

Figure 1-4 Direct mounting
l The separate mounting method is adopted when a double-polarized antenna or big-diameter
and single-polarized antenna is used. Figure 1-5 shows the separate method. In this
situation, a hybrid coupler can be mounted. That is, two ODUs share one feed boom.
Figure 1-5 Separate mounting

1.3 Radio Link Forms
The OptiX RTN 950 provides the radio links of different forms by flexibly configuring different
IF boards and ODUs to meet the requirements of different microwave application scenarios.

System Control and Communication Unit
The system control and communication unit comprises the CPU unit and logic control unit. The
system control and communication unit performs the following functions:
l Controls and manages the other units on the board, and also collects alarms and performance
events through the control bus.
l Controls and manages the other boards in the IDU, and also collects alarms and performance
l Controls and manages the ODU by using the ODU control signal transmitted through the
control bus in the backplane and the SMODEM in the IF board.
l Processes the network management messages in the DCCs through the logic control unit.
l The CPU unit communicates with the NMS through the Ethernet NM port and NE cascade
port.
l The CPU unit reads the information from the CF card through the bus and loads the
software.
l The logic control unit decodes the address read/write signals from the CPU unit and loads
the FPGA software.
l The logic control unit cross-connects the overheads of the auxiliary interface unit, CPU
unit, and other boards, thus realizing the following functions:
Adds or drops the DCC information processed by the CPU unit.
OptiX RTN 950
3-9
Adds or drops the orderwire, synchronous data and asynchronous data services.
Realizes the interchange of the orderwire bytes, DCC bytes, and K bytes between
different lines.
l The system control and communication unit on the board communicates with the system
control and communication unit on the paired board by carrying the FE signal over the
communication bus in the backplane. In this manner, the 1+1 hot backup between the paired
boards is realized.
Cross-Connect Unit
The cross-connect unit grooms services over the entire system through the higher order cross-
connect unit and the lower order cross-connect unit. Figure 3-5 shows the functional block
diagram of the cross-connect unit.
Figure 3-5 Functional block diagram of the cross-connect unit
Source TDM
service unit
HOXC
LOXC
Sink TDM
service unit

The source TDM service unit transmits the VC-4 signals to the higher order cross-connect unit
through the VC-4 buses. If the VC-4 signals are all VC-4 services, the higher order cross-connect
unit processes the VC-4 signals and then transmits the signals to the sink TDM service unit. If
the VC-4 signals include any VC-12 or VC-3 services, the higher order cross-connect unit
grooms the VC-12 or VC-3 services to the lower order cross-connect unit. The lower order cross-
connect unit processes the VC-12 or VC-3 services and then transmits the services back to the
higher order cross-connect unit. The higher order cross-connect unit processes the services and
then transmits the services to the sink TDM service unit.
Clock Unit
l The clock unit selects the external clock source or the service clock source from a service
port according the clock priority. Through the phase-locked loop, the clock unit provides
the system clock.
l The main and standby boards transmit the clock to each other.

NOTE
l The external clock interface and wayside E1 interface are combined into one interface. This interface
can transparently transmit the DCC byte, orderwire overhead byte, and synchronous/asynchronous data
service overhead byte. One interface, however, can implement only one of the three functions: external
clock interface, wayside E1 service, and transparent transmission of the overhead byte.
l The 64 kbit/s synchronous data interface can transparently transmit the orderwire byte. One interface,
however, can implement only one of the two functions: 64 kbit/s synchronous data interface and
transparent transmission of the orderwire byte.
The auxiliary management ports use RJ-45 connectors. The pin assignments of the ports,
however, are different. Figure 3-7 shows the front view of the RJ-45 connector.

NOTE
The NMS/COM port and the EXT port are equivalent to two ports on a hub. Thus, ensure that no external
Ethernet link is configured between the two ports during the networking process. Otherwise, an Ethernet
loop is formed. As a result, a network storm is generated, wherein repeated resets are performed on the
NEs.

NOTE
When the OptiX RTN 950 is configured with two system control boards, the NM ports and NE cascade
ports of the system control boards are equivalent to four ports on a hub. To avoid network storms, you need
to use the NM port and NE cascade port of the working system control board, if possible.
The clock port (CLK) and the high-precision time port (TOD) use different pins of the same
RJ-45 connector. The pin assignment information of the CLK/TOD1 and TOD2 ports is provided
in Table 3-8 and Table 3-9.
NOTE
Pins 3 and 68 of the CLK/TOD1 and TOD2 ports are reserved for running the high-precision time protocol

After you press this button for eight
seconds, the board restores the NE
database from the CF card
automatically.
RST Warm reset button After you press this button, a warm reset
is performed on the board.

Tact Switches
There is a tact switch near each ejector lever on the front panel of the board. When removing a
board, you can rotate the ejector levers only after pushing the tact switches to the middle
positions.
On the CF card, NE databases, system parameters (including NE-IP, NE-ID, and subnet mask),
software packages, and NE logs are stored. After the CRV button on the system control,
switching and timing board is pressed and held for eight seconds, the data stored on the CF card
is loaded to the board. To synchronize the data on the CF card with the NE databases, system
parameters, and NE logs on the system control, switching and timing board, the regular backup
function needs to be enabled.
NOTE
The software packages on the CF card are updated with those on the system control, switching and timing board
during package diffusion. Therefore, no automatic or manual operation is performed to synchronize the software
packages. When the system control, switching and timing board and the CF card have different software packages
or data, the SWDL_PKGVER_MM alarm is reported.

System Control and Communication Unit
The system control and communication unit comprises the CPU unit and logic control unit. The
system control and communication unit performs the following functions:
l Controls and manages the other units on the board, and also collects alarms and performance
l Controls and manages the other boards in the IDU, and also collects alarms and performance
OptiX RTN 950
3-25
l Controls and manages the ODU by using the ODU control signal transmitted through the
control bus in the backplane and the SMODEM in the IF board.
l The CPU unit drives the packet switching unit to groom Ethernet service packets, through
the control bus.
l The CPU unit processes the Ethernet protocol packets from the packet switching unit,
through the control bus.
l Processes the network management messages in the DCCs through the logic control unit.
l The CPU unit communicates with the NMS through the Ethernet NM port and NE cascade
port.
l The CPU unit reads the information from the CF card through the bus and loads the
software.
l The logic control unit decodes the address read/write signals from the CPU unit and loads
the FPGA software.
l The logic control unit cross-connects the overheads of the auxiliary interface unit, CPU
unit, and other boards, thus realizing the following functions:
Adds or drops the DCC information processed by the CPU unit.
Adds or drops the orderwire, synchronous data and asynchronous data services.
Realizes the interchange of the orderwire bytes, DCC bytes, and K bytes between
different lines.
l The system control and communication unit on the board communicates with the system
control and communication unit on the paired board by carrying the FE signal over the
communication bus in the backplane. In this manner, the 1+1 hot backup between the paired
boards is realized.
Packet Switching Unit
The main functional unit of the packet switching unit is the Layer 2 switching unit. The Layer
2 switching unit performs the operations related to the Layer 2 switching and Layer 2 protocol.
l After receiving Ethernet services from the other Ethernet boards, the packet switching unit
grooms the Ethernet services based on the configurations that are issued from the system
control and communication unit.
l After receiving protocol packets from the other Ethernet boards, the packet switching unit
transmits the protocol packets to the system control and communication unit for processing.
The system control and communication unit processes the protocol packets and then sends
the protocol packets back to the packet switching unit. The packet switching unit transmits
the protocol packets to the other Ethernet boards.
Cross-Connect Unit
The cross-connect unit grooms services over the entire system through the higher order cross-
connect unit and the lower order cross-connect unit. Figure 3-13 shows the functional block
diagram of the cross-connect unit.

Sink TDM
service unit

The source TDM service unit transmits the VC-4 signals to the higher order cross-connect unit
through the VC-4 buses. If the VC-4 signals are all VC-4 services, the higher order cross-connect
unit processes the VC-4 signals and then transmits the signals to the sink TDM service unit. If
the VC-4 signals include any VC-12 or VC-3 services, the higher order cross-connect unit
grooms the VC-12 or VC-3 services to the lower order cross-connect unit. The lower order cross-
connect unit processes the VC-12 or VC-3 services and then transmits the services back to the
higher order cross-connect unit. The higher order cross-connect unit processes the services and
then transmits the services to the sink TDM service unit.
Clock Unit
l The clock unit selects the external clock source or the service clock source from a service
port according the clock priority. Through the phase-locked loop, the clock unit provides
the system clock.
l The main and standby boards transmit the clock to each other.
Power Supply Unit
l Combines and then converts the two -48 V power inputs into the power supply required by
the chips of the other units on the system control and communication board.
l Combines and then converts the two -48 V power inputs into the +3.3 V power required
by the other boards in the IDU.
l Combines and then converts the two -48 V power inputs into the +12 V power required by
the fan.

TOD2 The second time port

NOTE
l The external clock interface and wayside E1 interface are combined into one interface. This interface
can transparently transmit the DCC byte, orderwire overhead byte, and synchronous/asynchronous data
service overhead byte. One interface, however, can implement only one of the three functions: external
clock interface, wayside E1 service, and transparent transmission of the overhead byte.
l The 64 kbit/s synchronous data interface can transparently transmit the orderwire byte. One interface,
however, can implement only one of the two functions: 64 kbit/s synchronous data interface and
transparent transmission of the orderwire byte.
The auxiliary management ports use RJ-45 connectors. The pin assignments of the ports,
however, are different. Figure 3-15 shows the front view of the RJ-45 connector.

NOTE
The NMS/COM port and the EXT port are equivalent to two ports on a hub. Thus, ensure that no external
Ethernet link is configured between the two ports during the networking process. Otherwise, an Ethernet
loop is formed. As a result, a network storm is generated, wherein repeated resets are performed on the
NEs.

NOTE
When the OptiX RTN 950 is configured with two system control boards, the NM ports and NE cascade
ports of the system control boards are equivalent to four ports on a hub. To avoid network storms, you need
to use the NM port and NE cascade port of the working system control board, if possible.
The clock port (CLK) and the high-precision time port (TOD) share the same RJ-45 port (CLK/
TOD) but occupy different pins of the RJ-45 port. The pin assignment information of the CLK/
OD1 and TOD2 ports is provided in Table 3-22 and Table 3-23.

Tact Switches
There is a tact switch near each ejector lever on the front panel of the board. When removing a
board, you can rotate the ejector levers only after pushing the tact switches to the middle
positions.
On the CF card, NE databases, system parameters (including NE-IP, NE-ID, and subnet mask),
software packages, and NE logs are stored. After the CRV button on the system control,
switching and timing board is pressed and held for eight seconds, the data stored on the CF card
is loaded to the board. To synchronize the data on the CF card with the NE databases, system
parameters, and NE logs on the system control, switching and timing board, the regular backup
function needs to be enabled.
NOTE
The software packages on the CF card are updated with those on the system control, switching and timing board
during package diffusion. Therefore, no automatic or manual operation is performed to synchronize the software
packages. When the system control, switching and timing board and the CF card have different software packages
or data, the SWDL_PKGVER_MM alarm is reported.

NOTE
The working principle and signal flow of the Packet microwave IF signals are similar to the working
principle and signal flow of the Hybrid microwave IF signals. The only difference is with regard to the
frame structure. In the case of the Packet microwave, the MUX/DEMUX unit only multiplexes/
demultiplexes the packet services and does not transmit the TDM services to the cross-connect unit or
receive the TDM services from the cross-connect unit.

3.8 EM6T/EM6F
The EM6T/EM6F is an FE/GE interface board, which provides four FE electrical ports and two
GE ports. The EM6T has similar functions to the EM6F. The only difference is as follows: the
GE ports on the EM6T always function as electrical ports whereas the GE ports on the EM6F
use the SFP modules and therefore can function as two optical or electrical ports. The GE
electrical ports on the EM6F and the EM6T are compatible with the FE electrical ports.
The functional version of the EM6T/EM6F is SL91.
The EM6T/EM6F accesses, processes, and aggregates four FE signals and two GE signals.
This topic considers the processing of one GE signal on the EM6T as an example to describe
the working principle and signal flow of the EM6T/EM6F.
3.8.4 Front Panel
There are indicators, FE ports, and GE ports on the front panel of the EM6T/EM6F. The GE
electrical ports on the front panel of the EM6T are compatible with the FE ports. The GE ports
on the front panel of the EM6F use pluggable SFP optical modules.
3.8.5 Valid Slots
The EM6T/EM6F can be inserted in slots 1-6. The logical slots of the EM6T/EM6F on the NMS
should be the same as the physical slots.

NOTE
a: The ALS function is implemented as follows:
l When the optical module detects the R_LOS alarm at the receive port and the alarm persists for 500
ms, the corresponding laser at the transmit port is automatically shut down.
l The laser changes to launch only intermittent laser pulses. The laser emits light for two seconds and
shuts down for 60 seconds.
l After the R_LOS alarm is cleared, the laser is recovered to normal and continuously emits light.

5.3 IF Jumper
The IF jumper connects the IDU and IF cable. The IF jumper is used with the IF cable to transmit
the IF signal, O&M signal, and -48 V power between the ODU and the IDU.
The IF jumper is a 2 m RG-223 cable. One end of the IF jumper is terminated with a type-N
connector and is connected to the IF cable. The other end of the IF jumper is terminated with a
TNC connector and is connected to the IF board.
NOTE
l The 5D IF cable is directly connected to the IF board. Thus, when the 5D IF cable is used, the IF jumper
is not required.
l When the RG-8U or 1/2-inch IF cable is used, an IF jumper is required to connect the RG-8U or 1/2-
inch IF cable to the IF board.

5.4 XPIC Cable
The XPIC cable is used to transmit the reference IF signal between the two IFX2 boards of the
XPIC working group to realize the XPIC function.
The XPIC cable is an RG316 cable with SMA connectors at both ends. One end of the XPIC
cable is connected to the X-IN port of one IFX2 board of an XPIC working group, and the other
end of the XPIC cable is connected to the X-OUT port of the other IFX2 board of the same XPIC
working group.
When the XPIC function of an IFX2 board is disabled, use an XPIC cable to connect the X-IN
port and X-OUT port of the IFX2 board to loop back signals.
The XPIC cable is available in the following two types:
l XPIC cable using angle connectors: The XPIC cable using angle connectors is very long,
and is used to connect the two IFX2 boards in the horizontal direction, for example, the
IFX2 boards in slots 3 and 4.
l XPIC cable using straight connectors: The XPIC cable using straight connectors is very
short, and is used to connect the two IFX2 boards in the vertical direction, for example, the
IFX2 boards in slots 3 and 5. The XPIC cable using straight connectors is also used to
connect the X-IN port and X-OUT port of the same IFX2 board to loop back signals.

Straight through cables are used between MDI and MDI-X ports, and crossover cables are used
between MDI ports or between MDI-X ports. The only difference between the straight through
cable and crossover cable is with regard to the pin assignment.
The NMS/COM port, NE port, and Ethernet service electrical ports of the OptiX RTN 950
support the MDI and MDI-X autosensing modes. Straight through cables and crossover cables
can be used to connect the NMS/COM port, EXT port, and Ethernet service electrical ports to

Parameters for configuring the proxy ARP
Proxy ARP Disabled
Enabled
Disabled 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.

Protocol
Stop SSM Protocol
Stop SSM Protocol l The SSM protocol is a
scheme used for
synchronous
management on an
SDH network and
indicates that the SSM
is passed by the lower
four bits of the S1 byte
and can be exchanged
between the nodes. The
SSM protocol ensures
that the equipment
automatically selects
the clock source of the
highest quality and
highest priority, thus
preventing mutual
clock tracing.
l After the standard SSM
protocol is started, the
NE first performs the
protection switching on
the clock source
according to the clock
quality level
information provided
by the S1 byte. If the
quality level of the
clock source is the
same, the NE then
performs the protection
switching according to
the clock priority table.
That is, the NE selects
an unlocked clock
source that is of the
highest quality and
highest priority from all
the current available
clock sources as the
clock source to be
synchronized and
traced by the local
station.
l If the SSM protocol is
stopped, it indicates
that the S1 byte is not
used. The NE selects
and switches a clock
OptiX RTN 950

source only according
to the sequence
specified in the priority
table. The clock source
of the highest priority is
used as the clock source
to be traced.
l After the SSM protocol
is stopped, each NE
performs the protection
switching on the clock
according to the preset
priority table of the
clock source only when
the clock source of a
higher priority is lost.

Sink VLAN ID when the service is transmitted from Sink Interface.
l The VLAN ID in a VLAN forwarding table item is converted unidirectionally and can be converted from
Source VLAN ID to Sink VLAN ID only. The VLAN ID can be converted bidirectionally only when the
other VLAN forwarding table item is configured reversely.
l In normal cases, Ethernet services are bidirectional. Hence, you need to set bidirectional conversion of

Destination Node 01-19-A7-00-00-01 - This parameter indicates
destination node. The
default destination MAC
address in the R-APS
packets is always 01-19-
A7-00-00-01.
Hold-Off Time(ms) 0 to 10000, in step of 100 - l This parameter
the hold-off time of the
ERPS hold-off timer.
l The hold-off timer is
used for negotiating the
sequence when the
ERPS coexists with
other protection
schemes so that the
fault can be rectified in
the case of other
(such as LAG
protection) before the
ERPS occurs. When a
node on the ring detects
one or more new faults,
it starts up the hold-off
timer if the preset hold-
off time is set to a value
that is not 0. During the
hold-off time, the fault
is not reported to
trigger an ERPS. When
the hold-off timer times
out, the node checks the
link status regardless
whether the fault that
triggers the startup of
the timer exists. If the
fault exists, the node
reports it to trigger an
ERPS. This fault can be
the same as or different
from the fault that
triggers the initial
startup of the hold-off
timer.
OptiX RTN 950
A-155
Guard Time(ms) 10 to 2000, in step of 10 - l This parameter
the guard time of the
ERPS guard timer.
l The nodes on the ring
continuously forward
the R-APS packets to
the Ethernet ring. As a
result, the outdated R-
APS packets may exist
on the ring network.
After a node on the ring
receives the outdated
R-APS packets, an
incorrect ERPS may
occur. The ERPS guard
timer is an R-APS timer
used for preventing a
node on the ring from
receiving outdated R-
APS packets. When a
faulty node on the ring
detects that the
switching condition is
cleared, the node starts
up the guard timer and
starts to forward the R-
APS (NR) packets.
During this period, the
R-APS packets
received by the node
are discarded. The
received R-APS
packets are forwarded
only after the time of
the guard timer expires.
OptiX RTN 950
Issue 06 (2010-07-30)
WTR Time(min) 5 to 12, in step of 1 - l This parameter
the WTR time of the
WRT timer in the case
of ERPS protection.
l The WTR time refers to
the duration from the
time when the working
channel is restored to
the time when the
switching is released.
When the working
channel is restored, the
WTR timer of the RPL
owner starts up. In
addition, a signal that
indicates the operation
of the WTR timer is
continuously output in
the timing process.
When the WTR timer
times out and no
switching request of a
higher priority is
received, the signal
indicating the
operation of the WTR
timer is not transmitted.
In addition, the WTR
release signal is
continuously output.
l The WTR timer is used
to prevent frequent
switching caused by the
unstable working
channel.
Packet Transmit
Interval(s)
1 to 10 - This parameter displays or

DNF Status - - This parameter indicates
the DNF status of the
packets received by the
working node.
l noDNF: The R-APS
packets do not contain
the DNF flag. In this
case, the packets are
forwarded by the node
that detects the fault on
a non-RPL link, and the
node that receives the
packets is requested to
clear the forwarding
address table.
l DNF: The R-APS
packets contain the
DNF flags. In this case,
the packets are
forwarded by the node
that detects the fault on
an RPL link, and the
node that receives the
packets is informed not
to clear the forwarding
address table.

Status of State Machine - - This parameter indicates
the status of the state
machine at the working

(NR, RB) packets.
l Protection: The
Ethernet ring is in
protected state. For
example, a fault on the
node triggers the
ERPS, or a node on the
ring is in the WTR
period after the fault is
rectified.
Node Carried with

LAG Type Static
Manual
Static l Static: You can create a

or from the LAG, the
Link Aggregation
Control Protocol
(LACP) protocol is
required. In a LAG, a
port can be in selected,
standby, or unselected
state. The aggregation
information is
exchanged among
different equipment
through the LACP
protocol to ensure that
the aggregation
information is the same
among all the nodes.
l Manual: You can create
a LAG. When you add
or delete a member
port, the LACP
protocol is not required.
The port can be in the
up or down state. The

channel after this
normal.
l When a LAG is set to
Non-Revertive, the
status of the LAG does
not change after the
former working
normal. That is, the
services are still
transmitted on the
protection channel.
Load Sharing Sharing
Non-Sharing
Non-Sharing l Sharing: Each member
link of a LAG
processes traffic at the
same time and shares
the traffic load. The
sharing mode can
increase a bandwidth
utilization for the link.
When the LAG
members change, or
certain links fail, the
system automatically
re-allocates the traffic.
l Non-Sharing: Only one
member link of a LAG
carries traffic, and the
other link is in the
standby state. In this
case, a hot backup
mechanism is
provided. When the
active link of a LAG is
faulty, the system
activates the standby
link, thus preventing
link failure.

considered as the
comparison result of
both LAGs so that the
aggregation
information is
consistent at both

of both LAGs are the

Cyclic Redundancy
Check
A procedure used in checking for errors in data transmission. CRC error checking uses
a complex calculation to generate a number based on the data transmitted. The sending
device performs the calculation before transmission and includes it in the packet that it
sends to the receiving device. The receiving device repeats the same calculation after
transmission. If both devices obtain the same result, it is assumed that the transmission
was error free. The procedure is known as a redundancy check because each transmission
includes not only data but extra (redundant) error-checking values.

GFP Generic Framing Procedure
Gigabit Ethernet GE adopts the IEEE 802.3z. GE is compatible with 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s Ethernet.It
runs at 1000Mbit/s. Gigabit Ethernet uses a private medium, and it does not support
coaxial cables or other cables. It also supports the channels in the bandwidth mode. If
Gigabit Ethernet is, however, deployed to be the private bandwidth system with a bridge
(switch) or a router as the center, it gives full play to the performance and the bandwidth.
In the network structure, Gigabit Ethernet uses full duplex links that are private, causing
the length of the links to be sufficient for backbone applications in a building and campus.

Multiple Spanning
Tree Protocol
Multiple spanning tree protocol. The MSTP can be used in a loop network. Using an
algorithm, the MSTP blocks redundant paths so that the loop network can be trimmed
as a tree network. In this case, the proliferation and endless cycling of packets is avoided
in the loop network.The protocol that introduces the mapping between VLANs and
multiple spanning trees. This solves the problem that data cannot be normally forwarded
in a VLAN because in STP/RSTP, only one spanning tree corresponds to all the VLANs.

rotates regularly. Specifically, if the electric field vector of the electromagnetic wave is
perpendicular to the plane of horizon, this electromagnetic wave is called vertically
polarized wave; if the electric field vector of the electromagnetic wave is parallel to the
plane of horizon, this electromagnetic wave is called horizontal polarized wave; if the

PRBS Pseudo-Random Binary Sequence
Protocol Independent
Multicast-Sparse Mode
A protocol for efficiently routing to multicast groups that may span wide-area (and inter-
domain) internets. This protocol is named protocol independent because it is not
dependent on any particular unicast routing protocol for topology discovery, and sparse-
mode because it is suitable for groups where a very low percentage of the nodes (and
their routers) will subscribe to the multicast session. Unlike earlier dense-mode multicast
routing protocols such as DVMRP and PIM-DM which flooded packets everywhere and
then pruned off branches where there were no receivers, PIM-SM explicitly constructs
a tree from each sender to the receivers in the multicast group. Multicast packets from
the sender then follow this tree.

Keying
Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) is a modulation method of data transmission
through the conversion or modulation and the phase determination of the reference
signals (carrier). It is also called the fourth period or 4-phase PSK or 4-PSK. QPSK uses
four dots in the star diagram. The four dots are evenly distributed on a circle. On these
phases, each QPSK character can perform two-bit coding and display the codes in Gray
code on graph with the minimum BER.

sub-network Sub-network is the logical entity in the transmission network and comprises a group of
network management objects. The network that consists of a group of interconnected or
correlated NEs, according to different functions. For example, protection subnet, clock
subnet and so on. A sub-network can contain NEs and other sub-networks. Generally, a
sub-network is used to contain the equipments which are located in adjacent regions and
closely related with one another, and it is indicated with a sub-network icon on a
topological view. The U2000 supports multilevels of sub-networks. A sub-network
planning can better the organization of a network view. On the one hand, the view space
can be saved, on the other hand, it helps the network management personnel focus on
the equipments under their management.

Synchronization Status
Message
A message that is used to transmit the quality levels of timing signals on the synchronous
timing link. Through this message, the node clocks of the SDH network and the
synchronization network can acquire upper stream clock information, and the two
perform operations on the corresponding clocks, such as tracing, switchover, or
converting hold), and then forward the synchronization information of this node to down
stream.
Synchronous Digital
Hierarchy
SDH is a transmission scheme that follows ITU-T G.707, G.708, and G.709. It defines
the transmission features of digital signals such as frame structure, multiplexing mode,
transmission rate level, and interface code. SDH is an important part of ISDN and B-
ISDN. It interleaves the bytes of low-speed signals to multiplex the signals to high-speed
counterparts, and the line coding of scrambling is only used only for signals. SDH is
suitable for the fiber communication system with high speed and a large capacity since
it uses synchronous multiplexing and flexible mapping structure.

An STM is the information structure used to support section layer connections in the
SDH. It consists of information payload and Section Overhead (SOH) information fields
organized in a block frame structure which repeats every 125 . The information is suitably
conditioned for serial transmission on the selected media at a rate which is synchronized
to the network. A basic STM is defined at 155 520 kbit/s. This is termed STM-1. Higher
capacity STMs are formed at rates equivalent to N times this basic rate. STM capacities
for N = 4, N = 16 and N = 64 are defined; higher values are under consideration.

User Datagram
Protocol
A TCP/IP standard protocol that allows an application program on one device to send a
datagram to an application program on another. User Datagram Protocol (UDP) uses IP
to deliver datagrams. UDP provides application programs with the unreliable
