S6000 Router Theory of Operations
This chapter contains descriptions on how S6000 routers operate in the system and what functions they serve. The
following topics are included:
• Core Router Overview on page 27
• Exit Router Overview on page 29
• Gateway Router Overview on page 30
• Control Site Router Overview on page 31
• Border Router Overview on page 32
• Control Site Border Router Overview on page 32
• Peripheral Network Router Overview on page 32
• DCS Router Overview on page 32
Core routers provide connectivity between the MSO and the remote RF sites, the remote control sites, and the
gateway servers. They also serve as the multicast routers (Rendezvous Points) for the voice multicast groups.
A core router performs the following tasks:
• Controls audio, data, and network traffic in and out of the master site
• Provides control path redundancy and segregates the Network Management traffic
• Provides necessary services to the sites
• Provides a proactive fault management system, notifying whenever a redundant core router takes control
• Handles network traffic between the master site and the remote sites within a zone (intrazone traffic)
To connect to the MSO LAN switch the core routers use Ethernet ports which are connected to a separate TLAN. To
connect to remote sites the core router uses either direct connection to the GBN or the connection via the CWR
solution to the GBN, or the Ethernet WAN connection to the GBN via backhaul switches.
Core routers may be deployed in different ways:
• Pairs of E1-Core Routers – if redundancy is required the core routers are deployed in pairs of 1, 2, or 3 (2, 4, or
6 core routers in total). The number of pairs depends on the number of attached sites and the number of packets on
the TLANs. The core router pairs are deployed in combination with the CWR solution or WAN switch in case of
legacy design. The core routers support multiple sites per port because of channelized E1. The core router
redundancy in a geographically redundant zone is equal to a regular zone. Both CWR for single links and CWR
per dual link are possible.
• Pairs of Eth-Core Routers – Ethernet-based core routers are deployed in pairs of 1, 2, or 3 (2, 4, or 6 core routers
in total). The number of pairs depends on the number of attached sites and the number of packets on the TLANs.
The core routers support multiple sites per port because of IP tunnels. The core router redundancy in a
geographically redundant zone is equal to a regular zone. However, redundant routers are located in redundant
locations.
• Single E1-Core Routers – single core routers are used when router redundancy is not required. A singleton core
router supports multiple sites per port because of channelized E1.
Additionally, Ethernet core routers are deployed in the zone core when additional capacity is required, for example if
more base stations are needed in the zone core.
Note: The core router can also be configured to receive Network Time Protocol (NTP) and to interface
with the Network Management server using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
Traffic being delivered to remote sites is sent over an IP tunnel which originates at the core router and terminates at
the remote site router. Each IP tunnel originates on a separate core router for redundancy. The IP tunnels are set up in
an active/standby configuration. Most of the traffic follows the primary IP tunnel. If there is a failure in the primary
tunnel, traffic switches over to the secondary tunnel.
routers, travel over the E1 links, through the patch panel, and ultimately terminate on the site router. In case of
Ethernet Site Links solution, routers communicate to sites through IP tunnels configured over Ethernet backbone
provided by GBN. There are two IP tunnels to each site, which originate at core routers, travel over Ethernet GBN
through backhaul switches, and terminate at control site routers.
The routers have two Ethernet ports that connect into different layer two modules on the LAN switch.
Exit routers refer to a pair of routers per zone core that service:
• The intra-MSO traffic by means of LAN connectivity between zones within Multi-LAN shares, or by means of IP
tunnels between zones within the MSO
• The inter-MSO traffic by means of E1 or Ethernet WAN connectivity to other remote MSOs. The exit router uses
Multilink Frame Relay (MFR) on E1s or IP Tunnels on Ethernet links to connect to other MSOs. Only one exit
router is active at the time; the other exit router acts as a backup. Exit routers are not needed for a standalone
single zone system.
In order to provide redundancy for the interzone links out of the zone core, exit routers are in each zone working in
pairs (CWR panel is required for E1-based exit routers).
For a geographically redundant system, a pair of exit routers is required in each location to provide redundancy for
the interzone links out of the geographical location.
An exit router performs the following tasks:
• Handles interzone links. As with the core routers, the exit routers have two Ethernet ports that connect into
different layer 2 modules on the Local Area Network (LAN) switch and a 12-port E1 connector connected to the
patch panel for interzone traffic in the CWR solution.
Note: Exit routers use the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) for interzone routing.
• Deploys packets among its multiple connections on both the LAN and WAN interfaces using dynamic routes. The
packets destined for the control Ethernet interfaces on the zone controller, as well as the packets for Network
Management, are routed through the Transitional LAN (TLAN) ports of the Ethernet LAN switch using dynamic
routes.
• Communicates with other zones through the patch panel or the backhaul switch using the E1 or Ethernet
connection. Each PVC originates on an exit router in one zone, and terminates on an associated exit router in the
adjacent zone.
Gateway routers serve as a single access interface for all information intended for the zone controller and the Packet
Data Gateway (PDG). Any traffic to and from these devices is routed through the gateway router. A gateway router
provides a level of isolation for the zone controller and PDG. A gateway router supports multicast traffic, allowing
the zone controller to send control packets to multiple points in the zone. Two gateway routers are installed on the
Local Area Network (LAN).
For systems with Geographical Redundancy, the primary, and secondary locations contain a single gateway router.
Each gateway router is connected only to a single core LAN switch.
The gateway router is a Motorola Network Router (MNR) S6000 with no I/O interfaces, as shown in Figure 4:
Gateway Router with no I/O Modules on page 31.
The gateway router functions as a data and control router. It also provides audio switch interface and Network
Management functionality.
Gateway routers are used for devices that require network redundancy and are multicasting beyond their local LAN.
Gateway routers provide support for the following:
• Zone Controller (control router functionality)
• Packet Data Gateway (data router functionality)
• Network Management
Gateway routers provide several benefits for the zone's master site:
• Provide a single access point or gateway to access the core and exit routers.
• Isolate multicast traffic from the various hosts they are servicing.
• Provide redundant connections for hosts with redundant interfaces (zone controller).
Each gateway router has two 100Base-T connections to one of the master site Ethernet switches. One router connects
to TLAN 1 and the other connects to TLAN 2. One of the gateway routers routs any traffic to and from the zone
controllers or PDG. Each gateway router also has an RS232 connection to the terminal server, allowing router
administration by PC clients over the LAN.
Control site routers connect remote control sites to the MSO via E1 or Ethernet site links. Control site routers support
single site link and dual site links.
Redundancy is achieved with the use of dual site links. Dual site links can be terminated on two separate control site
routers, or on one control site router with two WAN modules. When implementing two control site routers, each
router handles one PVC which is terminated on separate core router at the zone core.
Border routers are routers that handle the interface to the Customer Enterprise Network (CEN). They connect to the
peripheral network (PN) on one site and the CEN on the other site. At the CEN interface one or more border routers
can be implemented.
Border routers are managed under the same conditions as the PN routers. In general the border router can be any type
router as long as it supports both the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) to the peripheral network router, IPinIP
tunneling for PDS, and a Network Address Translation (NAT) interface.
Control site border routers connect the CEN located in remote control sites to the RNI via E1 WAN links. Control site
border routers support single site link and dual site links.
A peripheral network (PN) router refers to a router that forms a DeMilitarized Zone (DMZ) network for Customer
Interfacing and which is independent of both Dimetra and customer IP domains. The PN router connects to the
gateway routers (optionally via a firewall), the control sites, the customer interface routers (border routers), and to
other PN routers. The PN router provides independent inter-zone and control site connections on layer 1.
If network security is deployed, the management capabilities of PN routers become limited to:
• Fault Management server is able to discover the PN router via the use of ping.
• The PN router can send SNMP traps to the Fault Management server.
• SNMP Get/Set/GetNext requests originated from the RNI and SNMP GetResponse requests that from the PN
router are possible.
The PN Routers provide 1:1 redundancy at each geographically redundant location. For both for single links and dual
links. The PN routers support redundant PN/DMZ connections and router redundancy to other MSOs and control
sites.
Dispatch Communication Server (DCS) routers provide connectivity to Dispatch Communication Servers towards
gateway and core routers. DCS routers are deployed in pairs for redundancy. Each DCS router connects to the core
LAN switches using two Ethernet ports. The first port connects to TLAN1 and the second port connects to TLAN2.
On the other side, DCS router connects to DCS subnets/sites using the third Ethernet port.
For redundancy reasons, the DCS routers form a single pair that connects to DCS subnets and runs Virtual Router
Redundancy Protocol (VRRP). DCS routers are always deployed in pairs. However, in geographically redundant
systems, DCS routers are not split over the two geographical locations, rather another pair of DCS routers is added in
each geographical location.

S6000 Router Installation
This chapter contains the installation procedures for S6000 routers. The following topics are included:
• General Hardware Installation Guidelines on page 33
• S6000 Router Installation on page 37
• Router EOS and Configuration Software Installation on page 43
Caution: When removing or installing modules, take the following precautions to prevent electrostatic
discharge (ESD) from damaging the internal components of the router:
• Always wear a properly grounded anti-static wrist strap.
• Transport static-sensitive components in anti-static packaging.
• Keep static-sensitive components in their anti-static packaging until you are ready to install them.
• Just before removing components from their anti-static packaging, discharge static electricity from your
body by touching an unpainted metal surface.
• When you handle modules, place them printed circuit side down on a nonconducting, static-free, flat
surface.
Environmental Considerations
Most of the Master Site equipment is designed to be rack mounted and is normally supplied in 19" equipment
cabinets. These cabinets are intended to be installed in an equipment room with an appropriate Heating, Ventilation,
and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system installed. The ambient temperature of the equipment room should be
maintained in the range of 18 to 24 °C and the relative humidity maintained within the range 30% to 55% (non-
condensing). If feet are supplied, ensure that they are installed under the equipment cabinets to allow sufficient
airflow through the cabinet. See also Placement Recommendations on page 34. If you have a FAN system in a
cabinet without any alarm system, it needs yearly inspection. If necessary, replacement is needed.
Placement Recommendations
Use the following suggestions for placing the equipment at the site.
• Place each rack in a stable area on a firm surface. Use the correct mounting hardware and shims to prevent rack
movement.
• Install the system safely. Use strain relief when installing and positioning cables and cords to help ensure that no
interruption of service occurs.
• Allow at least a meter of space at the front and rear of the system for proper air flow for cooling and for safe
access.
• Locate the site racks and other equipment with ease of service and access in mind. Service personnel require
access to the front, the rear, and the sides of the racks.
• Locate the system in an area free of heat, dust, smoke, and Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).
• If feet are supplied with your equipment, make sure that they are fitted under the cabinet to provide as least 15 mm
between the bottom of the rack and the floor. Additional clearance is required for compressible floor surfaces such
as carpet tiles.
• External cables coming into the cabinets must not significantly reduce airflow within the cabinets. Cables are
expected to be grouped together and secured along the side of the cabinets using the vertical rails.
• The power supply lines to the rack must be appropriately protected by fuses.
Note: Environmental operating and storage requirement data for individual components is available in
product documentation or as presented in each chapter.
Rack Requirements
Most equipment is installed on a standard 19" rack.
Cabling Guidelines
See the Quality Standards - Fixed Network Equipment (FNE) Installation Manual, Standards and Guidelines for
Communication Sites for cabling standards.
Important:
• To prevent emission problems, use only Motorola shielded cables. Do not substitute other cable types.
• Ensure that equipment is positioned to avoid excessive tension on cables and connectors. Cables must
be loose with absolutely no stress on the connectors. Maintenance loops are recommended.
• Dress the cables neatly using cable ties. Do not tighten the cable ties until you are sure that the required
service length and bend radius requirements are met. Cable ties should be loose enough to allow
adjustment.
• Verify that all cables are properly labeled.
• Ensure that cables do not exceed the minimum bend radius as outlined in the Standards and Guidelines
for Communication Sites.
Warning: Use only Category five Shielded Twisted Pair (or higher) for cabling Ethernet connections.
Motorola has engineered this system to meet specific performance requirements and EMC standards. Using
other cabling and connectors may result in unpredictable system performance or catastrophic failure.
You might secure racks to the ground (or by other methods) to prevent it from tipping over when you remove the
units.
For racks with wheels, use the lock mechanism on the wheels to fix the rack.
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to
protect it from overheating, prevent these slots and openings from coverage or blocking.
If the cabinets are fitted with feet to raise them off the floor and to provide ventilation, do not remove these feet.
Never store combustible materials in or near equipment racks. The combination of combustible material, heat, and
electrical energy increases the risk of a fire safety hazard.
Only a qualified technician familiar with similar electronic equipment should service equipment.
Some equipment components can become hot during operation. Turn off all power to the equipment and wait until
sufficiently cool before touching.
Warning: Possible electrical shock hazard. Before attempting removal or installation, make sure that the
primary power and batteries are disconnected.
Caution: The Dimetra IP system contains CMOS devices. Proper troubleshooting and installation
techniques require grounding precautions by personnel before handling equipment.

Electrostatic Discharge
Caution: Electronic components such as circuit boards and memory modules can be extremely sensitive to
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Motorola recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a
conductive foam pad when installing or upgrading the system.
If an ESD station is not available, wear an antistatic wrist strap. Wrap one end strap around your wrist. Attach the
ground end (usually a piece of copper foil or an alligator clip) to the same electrical ground as the equipment under
repair or the equipment chassis.
Procedure:
1 Remove the cover from the S6000 chassis.
a Unplug the power cord(s) from the S6000 system and remove any cables that may be installed on the chassis.
b Remove the two screws that secure the cover to the chassis, as illustrated in Figure 5: Removing the Screws
that Secure the Chassis on page 38.
c Remove the cover from the chassis, as illustrated in Figure 6: Removing the Cover From the Chassis on page
39.
2 If the router is already configured with I/O modules, remove the existing module(s):
a Locate the module you want to replace and remove the screws. There are four screws securing the module to
the router, two standoff screws and two at the front panel.
b To remove the module from the connector pins, gently pull the connector up and off.
Figure 7: I/O Module Slot, Connector, and Standoff Locations on the S6000 Motherboard
3 Locate the slots on the S6000 motherboard into which you want to install the module(s) and the corresponding
standoffs and connector.
4 Insert the new module(s). For each module that you install:
a Insert the front of the module through the front panel of the chassis.
b Line up the connector pins carefully.
c Press down gently on the module.
Note: If you install a module in I/O module slot B, make sure that the power supply wires for the fan
are under the card when you insert it.
5 Secure the module(s) using a torque screwdriver. Four screws secure the module to the router, two standoff screws
and two at the front panel.
Important: To ensure that the module is seated properly, tighten the screws to a torque of 0,72–0,94
Nm.
6 Check the seating of the SDRAM to make sure that the SDRAM was not nudged or unseated during the module
installation. The white retaining tabs on the SDRAM socket should be snug against the SDRAM.
7 Replace the cover and secure it to the chassis with the two screws you removed in step 1, as illustrated in Figure
8: Replacing the Cover on the S6000 Chassis on page 41.
Procedure:
1 Hook the tab of one of the rack mount brackets into a venting hole on the side of the router chassis. Make sure,
that the holes on the bracket are aligned with the threaded holes on the chassis, as illustrated in the following
figure:.
2 Secure the rack mount bracket to the side of the chassis using two 8/32 flathead Phillips screws, as illustrated in
the following figure:
3 Repeat step 1 and step 2 to attach the other rack mount bracket to the other side of the router chassis.
4 Hold the chassis between the poles of the rack. Attach the brackets to the rack using two panhead screws on each
side (you must provide these screws), as illustrated in the following figure.
Caution: Using fewer than two screws on each side to secure the brackets to the rack may cause the
router to fall and sustain damage not covered by the warranty.

There are several tools available to help you troubleshoot the routers:
• Unified Event Manager on page 49
• Transport Network Configuration Tool/ Transport Network Device Manager on page 49
• InfoVista on page 50
• Console Interface on page 50
• LED Indicators on page 50
InfoVista
InfoVista is a performance management application that is part of the Transport Network Management (TNM)
application suite. InfoVista interfaces with, and gathers data from, multiple network devices supporting Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP) including master site routers, Ethernet LAN switches, and WAN switches.
This data includes CPU utilization, memory utilization, buffer utilization, port characteristics, and traffic analysis.
For more information, see the InfoVista manual.
Console Interface
Use the console interface to connect the S6000 router to a PC, terminal, or modem. The console port is a 9-pin male
connector. Before using the console interface, verify that configurable parameters of your PC, terminal, or modem
match the configuration settings of the console port specified in Table 7: Console Port Configuration Settings on
page 50.

LED Indicators
S6000 routers are equipped with a set of LED indicators allowing to monitor and troubleshoot the behavior of the
system. Detailed descriptions of LED indicators are covered in S6000 Router Reference on page 55.
Table 8: S6000 Router General Troubleshooting on page 50 describes troubleshooting steps for general problems
with the routers.
Problem Troubleshooting
General connectivity 1 Using UEM, check the conditions and alarms for the router. Verify that the IP
problems address, MAC address, and other configuration settings are correct.

Problem Troubleshooting
2 Using UEM, check the alarms for other critical network devices on the LAN.
Also verify the configuration of LAN switch.
3 Check the physical connection to the LAN port on the router. Verify that the
cabling is properly connected and in good condition.
4 If the connection fails to establish a connection, power down the router and test
the Ethernet cable for continuity, attenuation, and excessive crosstalk. Replace
the cable if necessary.
5 If the router still fails to operate properly, replace the router. See Backup and
Restore Including FRU/FRE manual for replacement instructions.
General performance 1 In UEM, check the condition of the LAN switch and all affected devices and
problems on the LAN links. Verify that all routers are operational.
2 Using Historical Reports, Performance Reports, check the overall loading of
calls and activities on the LAN. Verify that the loading is within the maximum
loading specifications for the system.
3 Using InfoVista, generate performance and traffic reports for the routers. Look
for anomalies, heavy volumes of traffic, or high CPU utilization or other
device resources.
4 Run ping, traceroute, and pathping commands and loopback testing across any
troubled links or between any suspected devices.
5 Verify that the address tables, subnet masks, and default gateways are set
appropriately in the router and other networked devices.
6 Physically verify that the LAN switch is operating properly. Check LEDs and
physical connections and verify that all cabling conforms to standard. Check
for sharp bends in cabling and cabling that is too long for specification (such as
100 meters for 10Base-T).
7 Check troubled cabling for noise, attenuation, continuity, and crosstalk. Verify
that communication cabling is routed apart from all power cabling and power
sources. Verify that cabling is also clear from any test equipment that is
causing interference.
8 As applicable, verify that any service provider connections are providing the
appropriate throughput for your system.
9 Identify the bottleneck points in the system. Check and reload device
configurations as necessary, or replace any suspected switching or routing
devices that are not performing to specification.
10 Revise the configurations, services, and permissions for the subscribers as
necessary.
11 Purchase additional equipment to handle the additional load of traffic (routers
or sites). Contact Motorola for assistance.
