Modified Features
No feature is modified.
NOTE
Before you log in and manage the NE through the U2000 LCT, if the U2000 has already logged in to the
NE, you need to enable the LCT Access Control switch on the U2000, and select either Serial Port Access
Control or Ethernet Access Control.
Besides the preceding functions, the U2000 LCT provides various customized functions, as
shown in Figure 2-2 and as listed in Table 2-7.
Alarm browsing The alarm browsing function helps to browse current alarms,
history alarms, and events.
Through the alarm browse function, you can query alarms by object
where an alarm occurs, function, alarm status, and alarm severity.
In addition, you can save and print the query result.
Alarm sequence Through the sequence customizing function, you can sort alarms
by field in the alarm list and customize the alarm display. In
addition, you can save alarms in the .txt, html, xls, and csv file, and
print the required alarm records.
Dynamic alarm panel Through the alarm panel, you can customize alarm conditions in an
alarm template flexibly and display alarms dynamically. This helps
to classify alarms quickly and acknowledge the concerned alarms.
Alarm handling mean Through the shortcut menu, you can perform various operations on
each alarm.
Alarm cause and repair Through this function, you can learn the cause of a selected alarm
suggestion and the repair suggestion. In addition, you can click Details to
display the alarm reference of the online help for detailed alarm
causes and handling procedures.
Alarm filtering Through the alarm filtering function, you can learn the running
status of an NE in real time. In addition, you can query the alarm
status, refresh the status in real time, and query the details of an
alarm in the alarm activation window. You can also print the alarm
records that are received recently and meet the print conditions.
Alarm color display The severity of each alarm in the alarm list is displayed with a
corresponding color. The color can be customized. You can specify
a certain alarm and jump to its corresponding NE node in the
topology view.
Alarm Statistics
You can learn the alarm status through alarm statistics and alarm analysis.
U2000 LCT can collect alarm statistics based on user-defined conditions. The alarm conditions
include the alarm name, alarm severity, alarm function type, alarm rising time, alarm status, or
a combination of any preceding items.
Alarm Acknowledging
Alarm acknowledgment helps to identify whether an alarm is processed.
Alarm acknowledgment helps you to identify a processed alarm. You can then take proper
measures by checking whether the alarm is in the acknowledged state.
Alarm Synchronization
The U2000 LCT supports the ability to synchronize NE alarms automatically and manually. You
can manually synchronize NE alarms by performing operations through GUI or set an automatic
synchronization policy. When the U2000 LCT restarts or the communication with an NE
recovers, the NE sends an alarm to the U2000 LCT. This implements the automatic alarm
synchronization on the U2000 LCT, as shown in Figure 2-3.
l Manual synchronization
You can manually synchronize NE alarms by performing operations through GUI.
l Automatic synchronization
You can set an automatic synchronization policy. After the U2000 LCT restarts, its
communication with an NE recovers, the NE sends an alarm to the U2000 LCT. This
implements the automatic alarm synchronization on the U2000 LCT.
l If an alarm is cleared on the NE but uncleared on the v, the alarm on the U2000 LCT is
cleared.
l If an alarm exists on the NE but does not exist on the U2000 LCT, the alarm is added to
the U2000 LCT.
NE Alarm Suppression
U2000 LCT supports the ability to suppress NE alarms. If you set the status of an alarm to
Suppressed, the NE does not report the alarm.
The difference between NE alarm suppression and NMS alarm masking is as follows: If you
enable alarm masking, an NE still reports an alarm but the U2000 LCT does not receive the
alarm. If you enable NE alarm suppression, the NE does not report an alarm, as shown in Figure
2-4.
Alarm Jumping
The U2000 LCT supports the alarm locating function. This function helps to jump to the topology
object that generates the required alarm. In addition, this function helps to quickly locate a
network fault, which improves the efficiency of alarm locating.
The alarm handling link is provided for the alarm jumping function. You can click Details to
display the alarm reference of the online help for detailed alarm causes and handling procedures
The NE that reports an alarm and the current U2000 LCT, however, may be in different time
zones. To learn the correct alarm generation time, the U2000 LCT automatically converts the
alarm generation time (NE time) into the local time of the client.

Clock Configuration
You can perform the following operations on the U2000 LCT:
l Manage the optical power: Query the input power, output power, and power thresholds of
each WDM board.
l Perform intelligent power adjustment (IPA): In the case of a fiber cut, the optical amplifier
board detects signal loss at the local station. The local station reports an event to the U2000
LCT. After the event is confirmed, the optical amplifier boards at the upstream and
downstream stations reduce their output power to a safe value to protect fiber maintenance
engineers from being injured by the laser emitted from the cut fiber. After the fiber is
reconnected, the optical signals are restored and the optical power of each optical amplifier
board automatically returns to a normal value.
l Perform automatic power equilibrium (APE). If the optical power of channels detected by
the MCA board at the receive end is abnormal, an event is reported to the U2000 LCT.
After the event is confirmed, a command is issued to the optical attenuation adjustment
board at the upstream station to adjust the optical power of the corresponding channels. In
this manner, the optical signal noise ratio (OSNR) of each channel at the receive end is
equalized.
l Configure pre-alerts for optical power at ports.
Dispersion Compensation
l The G.652 and G.655 fibers have positive dispersion coefficients and positive dispersion
slopes in 1550 nm window. After an optical signal is transmitted over a certain distance,
the accumulation of positive dispersion broadens the optical signal pulse and seriously
affects the transmission performance. To minimize this effect, a negative DCM is used on
networks. It uses negative dispersion to compensate the positive dispersion of fibers, so as
to maintain the original signal pulse.
l The OEQ NE can apply dispersion compensation to each band to reach dispersion
equalization.
Wavelength Monitoring
Wavelength monitoring uses the wavelength supervisory unit to monitor the wavelengths that
are transmitted from the WDM-side optical interface of the OTU board (including the service
convergence unit) and to control the wavelength drift. This function ensures stable wavelengths.

Basic attributes are physical attributes of the interface. Layer-2 attributes are data link layer
attributes of the interface, such as ATM attribute, VLAN attribute, and QinQ attribute. Layer-3
attributes are network layer attributes of the interface, such as the IP attribute.
Table 2-8 lists the PTN service interface types that the U2000 LCT supports.
MSTP Configuration
The MSTP can be used to clear loops in a network. The MSTP uses a specific algorithm to block
some redundant trails and change a loop network to a non-loop tree network. This function
prevents packet increase in a loop network and generation of broadcast storms in an endless
cycle. Different from the STP and RSTP, the MSTP can forward data according to VLAN packets
and realize load balance of VLAN data.
The U2000 LCT supports configuring the following MSTP attributes:
l Configure parameters of port groups and bridges.
l Configure CIST and MSTI parameters.
l Query CIST status and MSTI status.
BFD Configuration
Bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) can be used to check the Ethernet link status.
BFD is a simple Hello protocol. It is similar to the neighbor check of those famous protocols in
many aspects. A pair of systems periodically sends detection packets on the channel on which
session between the two systems is created. If a system does not receive any detection packet
from the opposite end in a specific time, the system regards that a failure occurs in some part of
the bidirectional channel to the adjacent system.
The U2000 LCT supports the functions of performing the BFD detection on IP/GRE tunnels
and the inter gateway protocol (IGP).
LPT Configuration
LPT is used to return the remote-end link status to the near end. The near-end equipment performs
operations depending on the remote-end link status. When the intermediate transmission network
of the services becomes faulty, the LPT informs the access equipment at both ends of the
transmission network to enable the backup network. That ensures the normal transmission of
the important data.
The multi-chassis (MC) LMSP can implement the LMSP among NEs.
The U2000 LCT supports the following functions of LMSP/MC LMSP configuration:
QoS Configuration
QoS indicates the performance of the data flow that travels through a network. The QoS is used
to ensure end-to-end service quality. The QoS cannot increase the bandwidth, but it can minimize
the delay and jitter in the network by reasonably allocating and monitoring network resources.
In this way, the quality of important services is ensured.
The DiffServ (DS) domain consists of a group of network nodes that enable the DiffServ
function, that is, DS nodes. In a DS domain, all DS nodes use the same service provision policy
to realize the same per-hop behavior (PHB). The DS nodes are classified into edge DS nodes
and internal DS nodes. The edge DS nodes usually perform complex flow classification on the
traffic that enters the DS domain. Traffic of different types is marked with different PHB service
types. For internal DS nodes, you need to perform only simple flow classification based on PHB
service type.
The U2000 LCT supports the following QoS functions:
l Configure QoS profile.
l Configure DiffServ domains.

U2000 LCT supports creating QoS function point policy. The function point policies are
as follows: port policy, ATM policy, V-UNI ingress policy, V-UNI egress policy, PW
policy and QinQ policy. By using these function point policies, you can bind the CAR
configuration attribute, shaping configuration attribute, flow classification configuration
attributes, WFQ schedule policy, WRED policy and color blindness mode attributes.
l Configure CoS queue mapping.
l Supports the application of the QoS policy to multiple NEs.
The U2000 LCT supports configuring the following functions of the MPLS tunnel on a per-NE
basis:
l Create an MPLS tunnel 1+1 protection group and an MPLS tunnel 1:1 protection group,
containing the switching mode, revertive mode, wait-to-restore (WTR) time, and hold-off
time.
l Perform MPLS tunnel protection switching.
l Query the protection switching status of an MPLS tunnel.

services over different networks.
The U2000 LCT provides the following configuration functions for CES service creation:
See Figure 2-8. The 3G station accesses the PTN equipment by using the ATM IMA group.
The equipment encapsulates the ATM cells into the Ethernet, and transmits the ATM cells to
the opposite end by using the PW.

regarded as one service. At the convergence point, the QoS parameters such as the overall
bandwidth are specified.
The U2000 LCT supports the following functions of configuring E-Aggr services on a per-NE
basis:
See Figure 2-12. The HQ of Company A is in City 3. Company A has Branch A in City 1, City
2, and City 3, and has Branch B in City 1 and City 2. Branch A and Branch B do not have business
with each other. Hence, the data should be isolated between the two branches. The HQ has
requirements of communicating with each branch and accessing the Internet.
Different VLANs are used to identify service data of different branches by using the E-LAN
service. In this way, data is shared within a branch and is isolated from other branches. The
Internet data of the HQ is also isolated from the internal service data by using the VLAN.

l In the case of the MSTP, WDM, PTN/ATN, router, and switch NEs, if the character sets
on an NE are changed, the U2000 LCT refreshes the character sets in real time so that the
character sets on the U2000 LCT are the same as those of the NE. At the same time, the
U2000 LCT notifies the user that the NE character sets are changed by means of an event.
l In the case of a new NE, if the data on the U2000 LCT has illegible characters or the
language changes, you can query and modify the character set attribute of a single NE or
NEs in batches in the NE Character Set Management window.
l The character set of an old NE cannot be modified because it does not have the character
set attribute interface. In the NE Character Set Management window, if the queried NE
an old NE, the related record is grayed out.
CAUTION
Modifying character sets is not a commonly performed operation. Generally, it is not allowed
to modify character sets. If there is a definite multi-language requirement and the character set
needs to be changed to UTF-8, you need to transcode the data of original character set on the
NE to ensure that the original data is normally displayed.

This section describes how to query the service ports.
A.1 Background
This section describes the service ports used by management systems.
To ensure the network security, you can take measures on the customer's network. The following
are the two cases that affect the network security:
l Security filtering settings such as routers or firewalls are configured in the network
environment where the NMS runs. When carrying out the project, avoid the service ports
used by the NMS being filtered by those security filtering settings.
l Some service ports providing system services are closed to prevent network or virus attacks.
Note that the service ports used by the NMS should not be closed, and otherwise the NMS
will not run properly.
A.4 Ports Between the U2000 LCT Server and the NEs
This section describes the ports used between the U2000 LCT server and the NEs.
While setting up a firewall between the U2000 LCT server and the NEs, you must enable ports
as follows:
l Any port on the U2000 LCT server can connect to the ports listed in Table A-1.

B Glossary
Alarm hold-off time Alarm delay includes start delay and end
delay. An alarm is not regarded as being
generated until the NE has been detecting it
for a period of time, and this period of time is
the alarm start hold-off time. An alarm is not
regarded as being cleared until the NE has
been detecting the ending of it for a period of
time, and this period of time is the alarm end
hold-off time. Setting the hold-off time can
avoid the generation of unnecessary alarms
due to misreport or jitter.
