The backplane is the bridge that connects all the functional modules. The MMX
communicates with all the functional modules through the backplane, and implements
control, management, and service switching on the MA5100.
The following describes the compositions and functions of the modules.
3.1.1 Main Control Module
This module consists of the MMX board, the subboards and the corresponding
software. The module is the core to implement service convergence and switching, as
well as device control and management. Its functions are as follows:
I. Service switching and management
z The MMX converges the ATM cell flows from the service modules, and transmits
them to the backbone network through the broadband uplink interfaces. It also
provides interconnection between the service ports of the MA5100 through its
service switching function.
z The MMX is designed based on ATM technology, and possesses powerful
management functions on services at ATM layer. The MMX is able to provide
3-2
Technical Manual
QoS for subscribers through congestion management, flow shaping and setting
of flow policies.
II. System control, maintenance and management
z The MMX controls and manages the whole MA5100 system, and provides alarm
management and fault diagnosis for the device. Working with the ESC module,
the MMX can monitor the running states of the device.
z The MMX supports loading of data and program, and provides Stratum 3 clock
for the system.
z The MMX supports F4 and F5 Operation Administration and Maintenance (OAM)
flows, such as Continuity Check, Alarm Indication Signal, Remote Defect Indication,
and Loopback.
z The MMX provides maintenance serial port (CON) and Ethernet port (ETH) to
facilitate maintenance from a terminal or the NMS. It also provides a monitoring
port (MON) that connects with the ESC module to implement monitoring and
alarm management for the device.
III. ATM interface
z MMX can provide multiple interfaces through the attached subboards, such as
STM-4 optical interfaces, STM-1 optical/electrical interfaces, OC-3c/STS-3c
interfaces, E3 interfaces and IMA interfaces.
z The first 155M of active/standby MMX uplink interface supports Multiplex Section
Protection (MSP) function, enabling SDH line monitoring and protection. When
the optical path connected to the first optical interface on active MMX goes
wrong, the system will automatically switch the services through this path to that
connected to the first optical interface on standby MMX. MA5103 does not
support the MSP function.
z All the above interfaces support user-network interface and network-network
interface.
The MMX board can hold two subboards. Table 3-1 lists all the subboards supported
on the MMX.

3.1.3 ADSL Service Module
This module provides ADSL interfaces that are based on telephone lines (ADSL over
POTS) and based on ISDN lines (ADSL over ISDN). Working with the ATU-R, it
provides ADSL access for subscribers. The ADSL service takes different frequency
bands from those used by POTS/ISDN services, so ADSL over POTS/ISDN does not
affect normal POTS/ISDN services on the lines.
The ADSL service module consists of the ADSL service process module and the
splitter. In actual application, all the upstream signals from the subscribers are sent to
3-5
Technical Manual
the splitter, which separates the ADSL signals from the POTS/ISDN signals, and
sends the ADSL signals to the ADSL service process module. The ADSL service
process module implements Discrete Multi-Tone (DMT) modulation/demodulation on
the signals, adapts ATM cell rates, de-multiplexes and multiplexes the ADSL signals,
and then sends the data to the CELL BUS. The downstream ADSL service data are
sent to the ADSL service process module from the CELL BUS, and become ADSL
signals after the process, and then sent to the ATU-R device through the POTS/ISDN
lines.
The following table lists all the boards that are supported on the ADSL service
module.

This module consists of the LAND board, and the corresponding software. This
module provides the LAN subscribers with accesses to the Internet and isolates
different subscribers through VLAN, so as to provide broadband connection to the
Internet and interconnection between leased line subscribers.
In LAN access application, the FE interfaces on the LAND receive the upstream
Ethernet frames from the LAN subscribers. After that, the Ethernet frames are
encapsulated based on RFC1483 (Bridged) and mapped as ATM cell flow. The ATM
cell flow is sent through the CELL BUS on the backplane to the MMX, and sent to the
upper-layer network. The downstream ATM cell flow from the CELL BUS is restored
into Ethernet frames on the LAND, and then sent to the LAN subscribers.
This module supports:

When congestion occurs in the network, LAND can dispatch the upstream
Ethernet frame based on the set 802.1p priority level, thereby ensuring the IP
service QoS.
II. Downstream
z In the case of ATM-DSLAM, xDSL service data (in the form of ATM cell flow) are
sent to the MA5100 through the uplink interfaces on MMX. The xDSL service
data are converted into ATM frames by the MMX, and sent to xDSL;
z In the case of IP-DSLAM, the xDSL data (Ethernet frame) is sent to LAND, then
sent to MA5100 through the upstream interface on the LAND. Land converts
Ethernet frame into ATM frame and sends xDSL through its cell bus. When
congestion occurs in the network, LAND can dispatch the downstream Ethernet
frame based on the set 802.1p priority level, thereby ensuring the IP service
QoS.
z After being processed by xDSL, ATM cell flow is converted into xDSL signals,
and sent to the remote ATU-R/STU-R.

Technical Manual
SmartAX MA5100/5103 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 4 Maintenance Management System
Chapter 4 Maintenance Management System
The MA5100 supports two maintenance modes: the command line mode and the
NMS mode. The following describes these two maintenance modes respectively.
4.1 Command Line Mode
In the command line mode, the maintenance person can log in to the MA5100 through
the serial port or telnet connection to maintain and configure the MA5100.
I. Serial port mode
In the serial port mode, the maintenance person can log in to the maintenance serial
port (CON) on the MMX through HyperTerminal, either locally or remotely. The local
serial port mode indicates that the maintenance terminal is directly connected to the
serial port on MMX of the MA5100. The remote serial port mode indicates that the
maintenance terminal is connected to the serial port on the MMX of the MA5100
through a MODEM over a Dial-up connection across the PSTN network.
II. Telnet mode
In the Telnet mode, the maintenance person can log in to the MA5100 through inband
or outband management mode.
The outband mode refers to that the maintenance terminal is connected to the
maintenance network port (ETH) on the MMX of the MA5100 through IP network. The
inband mode refers to that the maintenance terminal is connected to the FE/GE
interface of the MA5100 through IP/ATM network, and the maintenance channel
occupies a service channel.
Figure 4-1 shows the networking for maintenance through the command line.

4.2 NMS Workstation Mode
The MA5100 provides network management interfaces to communicate with the NMS
through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
The iManager N2000 NMS is a management system of Huawei to manage and

maintain fixed network devices and data communication devices in a centralized way.
It provides complete management functions at network and network element (NE)
levels. These functions include performance monitoring, traffic statistics, resource
measurement, service batch-processing and fast locating of faults. It helps the
carriers to reduce the operation and maintenance expense, enhance the efficiency
and strengthen the competitiveness.

IV. iManager N2000 software
The iManager N2000 manages fixed networks in a centralized way through its
removable modular application programs. This software system contains platform
software, NE management software, network management software, line test
management package, and so on.
4.2.2 Characteristics of iManager N2000
The iManager N2000 provides substantial functions to manage the DSLAM devices.
I. Centralized management over different DSLAM devices
The iManager N2000 can monitor and manage Huawei DSLAM series devices
(including the MA5100, MA5103, MA5105, MA5300 and S3026V), routers, LAN
Switches and other data communication devices in a centralized way, thus simplifying
the network maintenance.
II. Centralized monitoring of deivces and traffic statistics
The MA5100 provides diverse access means from broadband access to the Internet,
to high-speed leased line interconnection. These access modes are suitable for
general subscribers as well as large enterprises, schools, and banks. In this scenario,
It becomes a trick how to effectively monitor the running of the network devices and
get the traffic statistics at various ports. The iManager N2000 monitors network
devices and collects traffics information in a centralized manner, so the maintenance
person can trace the performance of a specific device, or devices in the whole
network to get the required information in real time. With its performance analyzers,
the iManager N2000 also supports analysis on the individual object in a specific time
period, and analysis on multiple objects. All the results are output in tables,
histograms and graphs.
III. Terminal management
Simplification, maintenance-free, remote management, and auto-detection of rate

and distance have become the trend to the development of ADSL terminals. The
iManager N2000 supports centralized configuration, test and monitor ADSL terminals
using RTU protocol.
IV. Broadband test management
The iManager N2000, with a built-in broadband test management system, tests the
xDSL lines by controlling the built-in broadband test module or outer test equipment of
the MA5100. It also analyzes and processes such test data. The test results are not
4-3
Technical Manual
only the basis to provide xDSL service, but also used to locate the failure that occurs
on the subscriber line or the central office side so as to save the troubleshooting time.
V. Batch processing on services
With the popularization of ADSL services and increasing of group users, allocating
service indexes and configuring service parameters become time-consuming. The
iManager N2000 supports processing of ADSL services and PVCs in batches. It also
provides service configuration templates to reduce the burden in inputting the
configuration parameters. Such processing functions of the MA1500 reduce the time
to deploy the service.
VI. Centralized backup and loading of device data
The iManager N2000 provides the Data Center management software for centralized
backup and loading of data of all the devices in the network. The maintenance person
can use the Data Center software to make manual or timed loading and backup for all
the network devices or a specific device. The centralized loading function also makes
it possible to implement batch upgrading of software for the ADSL devices in the
network segment.
VII. Safe solution to NMS and NMS database
There are very strict requirements on the security for the NMS and NMS database.
The iManager N2000 provides the NMS database backup tool to back up and restore
entries in the NMS database. The tool supports manual and periodic backup and
manual restoration. Remote monitor terminals are also available in the iManager
N2000 to supervise the status of the status and the NMS database.
VIII. Complete fault management and fast fault locating
The iManager N2000 supports the following functions:

z Real-time monitoring on alarms
z Query of history alarms
z Sorting and counting of alarms
z Dumping of alarm information
z Filtering of alarm information
z E-mail notification of alarms
z Analysis of alarm dependency
z Trap check
The alarm correlation analysis enables the maintenance person to pinpoint the faults
very quickly. The iManager N2000 also supports switching from alarm topological
window to alarm window and from alarm information to faulty port. This simplifies the
troubleshooting process.

Technical Manual
IX. Modular design and smooth upgrading
The modular and pertinent design of the iManager N2000 software packages enables
the carriers to make purchase of the management packages to their own needs. The
iManager N2000 supports smooth upgrading to cope with the demand to manage
new devices and new services in future.
X. Sophiscated security management
The iManager N2000 offers management authority and operation authority to the
devices. The management authority specifies whether the maintenance person can
manage a specific device or not. If a device is beyond the management authority of a
maintenance person, the node of such device is not available for the user in the
topological view. The operation authority can be made more specific to reach the
ports of a device. The operation authority is further classified into readable and
writable authorities. This hierarchical management mode makes the iManager N2000
a right solution to managing small and medium-sized DSLAM networks, and to future
NMS development as well.
XI. SNMP interface to access the third-party NMS
The iManager N2000 provides the basic functions to manage DSLAM networks. It
also provides the maintenance means to simplify the service flow and reduce the
complexity of operations. Its centralized and hierarchical management functions
ensure the security in the NM operation, and reduce the investment in NM systems.
As for large-sized DSLAM networks, the iManager N2000 can provide hierarchical
NM solutions together with iManager N2100 of Huawei.
4.2.3 Graphic User Interface of iManager N2000
The iManager N2000 provides friendly Graphic User Interfaces (GUIs) with unified
style to make the network management operations simple and easy. It also provides
powerful help system to assist the maintenance persons to learn and get familiar with
the system.
The iManager N2000 network topological view and the panel view of the MA5100 in
the NMS are given below to further illustrate the operability of the iManager N2000.
I. Network topological view
The iManager N2000 provides network topological views and submaps which are
identical with actual network topology, as shown in Figure 4-2.

4.2.4 iManager N2000 Networking
The iManager N2000 supports networking with the MA5100 through inband, outband
or hybrid modes.
I. Inband networking
Inband networking is to manage a device through the service channel provided by the
managed device. In this networking mode, NM messages are transferred through the
service channel of the managed device.
Inband networking is very flexible, and no additional device is needed. However, since
the maintenance messages are transferred through the service channel of the
managed device, maintenance operation from the iManager N2000 will be impossible
when the managed device fails.
Figure 4-4 shows an inband ATM networking of the iManager N2000 system.

service channels of the managed devices.
As shown in Figure 4-5, NMS sets up PVC maintenance channels using the ADSL
dialup access function provided by the MA5100, and implements management
through inband connection. However, the reliability of this networking mode is poor,
and is only suitable for remote browsing.

Inband networking is very flexible, and the above are only two typical modes. In actual
application, NM networks can be flexibly constructed by combining multiple modes.
II. Outband networking
Compared with the inband networking mode, the outband networking mode provides
a more reliable service management channel. In this mode, the managed device can
be located timely and monitored in real time even though the device fails. In this mode,
an additional device is needed to provide the maintenance channel, which is
independent of the service channels.
Like the inband networking, the outband networking also supports multiple modes,
and the MA5100 NMC supports networking with DDN/ISDN leased line, E1 line,
router and LAN.
Figure 4-6 shows an outband networking, in which the NMC connects with the node
devices through different ways.

Figure 5-4 MA5100 IP-DSLAM networking
In IP-DSLAM networking, the MA5100 provides the following two applications:
I. External BAS
In this mode, the MA5100 connects with the upper-layer distributed external BAS
(also called B-RAS) device (such as the MA5200 series of Huawei), or centralized
BAS device (such as the ISN8850 of Huawei). The xDSL subscribers are connected
to the IP network through the IP uplink port on the MA5100, and the connection with
the BAS is based on PPPoE or other modes, for the purpose of subscriber
authentication, authorization and accounting.
Features of a centralized BAS network:

z DSLAM access device is connected to the BAS through special convergence
device;
z The BAS is suitable for initial stages of DSLAM deployment when the
subscribers are scattered and the capacity is small;
z The BAS device is required to provide large capacity and powerful forwarding
capability;
z Subject to single point failure and flow bottleneck, difficult in VLAN planning and
configuration, the BAS is inapplicable to large DSLAM deployment, causing layer
2 network too large.
Features of a distributed BAS network:
z BAS is the convergence device for DSLAM;
z BAS is applicable to large deployment of DSLAM service;
z The BAS device is required to provide abundant interfaces and powerful
convergence function;
5-5
Technical Manual
z With simple network structure, it saves investment by the carriers.

Compared with the centralized BAS network, the distributed BAS network solves the
problem of single point failure and flow bottleneck.
II. Built-in ISU
The MA5100 provides a built-in ISU board for subscriber authentication, management
and accounting. This board also offers subscribers with accesses to IP network
directly.
5.1.4 ATM/IP-DSLAM Hybrid Networking
The MA5100 supports ATM and IP uplinks at the same time. When using the ATM
uplink ports, the MA5100 supports broadband access, leased line access, LAN
access, and multicast services. When using IP uplink ports, the MA5100 supports
broadband access as well as video multicasting (in coordination with upper-layer
multicast router or B-RAS device).

5.2 Service Application
5.2.1 High Speed Internet Access
ADSL provides large bandwidth with asymmetric upstream and downstream rates.
The maximum upstream rate reaches 896kbit/s, while the maximum downstream rate
reaches 8Mbit/s. ADSL makes good use of existing telephone lines for transmission
over a distance as far as five kilometers with low deployment cost and a high
deployment speed. So, it can satisfy the demands of subscribers in places beyond
reach of fibers.
ADSL2+ and ADSL have the same networking mode, but ADSL2+ features in higher
rates (max. upstream rate: 1.2Mbit/s, max. downstream rate: 24Mbit/s), and longer
transmission distance (6 km).

5.2.2 Leased Line Application
As one of the most popular DSLAM choices, the MA5100 provides a variety of leased
line access modes, apart from providing broadband Internet access, so as to enhance
the usage of the device and bring more revenue to the carrier.
The MA5100 supports G.SHDSL leased line access and LAN interconnection.
I. SHDSL leased line application
The SHDSL interface on the MA5100 provides high speed leased line access with
symmetric rates for enterprises or commercial users over 1/2 twisted pair cables. The
networking of SHDSL leased line access is similar to that of ADSL laccess, as shown

with the headquarters. Apart from the interconnection, this solution also supports
applications such as broadband Internet access and video conferencing. The
MA5100, together with other Huawei devices like the Radium8750 and ISN8850,
implements service distribution control, user management, network security and
authentication/accounting functions, and makes the Internet operable and
manageable.

5.2.3 Multicast Service Application
Multicast applications are becoming new service demands as streaming data

warehouse and video frequency appear in the IP network. ADSL/SHDSL, the
mainstream broadband access technologies are mainly used to provide high speed
Internet access and ADSL/SHDSL leased line services. Multicast services based on
ADSL/SHDSL are becoming a new profitable market for the carriers. Multicast
services are mostly used for streaming multi-media, distant learning, video
conferencing, video multicasting, Internet games, Interdisciplinary Data Collection
(IDC) and point-to-multipoint data transfer applications.
The MA5100 supports two multicast networking modes: IP DSLAM and ATM DSLAM,
as described below.
I. IP DSLAM multicast service application

Figure 5-9 IP DSLAM multicast service application of the MA5100
The MA5100 connects with the IP MAN through its IP uplink interfaces (FE/GE), and
coordinates with the upper layer multicasting router or BAS to implement the multicast
service. In this application, the MA5100 is a Layer 2 device to implement IGMP
Snooping function.
II. ATM-DSLAM multicast service application
In initial deployment of the multicast service, support from the broadband

convergence network or the backbone network may be insufficient, or the network
devices may not meet the requirement to support multicast protocols. In this case, the
DSLAM devices are required to connect with the video service server directly, so as to
deploy the multicast service independently. ATM-DSLAM multicast of the MA5100
supports this networking mode, as shown in Figure 5-10.

Figure 5-10 ATM-DSLAM multicast service application of the MA5100
To meet the requirement to connect the multicast server directly, in the IGMP
Snooping process of the MA5100, the multicast querying mechanism is introduced.
This mechanism is based to send query packets to multicast subscribers at regular
intervals, and to maintain the multicast group according to the response packet.
5.2.4 Broadband Test Service
This function aims to test the state of xDSL lines, so as to provide reference for
whether or not to activate a subscriber line, or locate the failure that occurs at the
subscriber side or central office side.
The MA5100 has a built-in BTSB board for the test purpose, and the networking is
shown below.

The maintenance person can use the built-in BTSB to test the states of ADSL lines in
the following ways:
z log in to the MA5100 through the maintenance serial port (CON) or network port
(ETH), and then execute the broadband test command;
z use the test management subsystem of the Huawei iManager N2000 NMS to
control the BTSB to test the states of the ADSL lines;
z connect the carrier’s test system through the NMS, so that the carrier’s test
system can control the BTSB to test the states of the ADSL lines.
