SECTION 1INSTALLATION AND OVERVIEW Chapter 4 Graphical User Interface General Description Introduction This chapter provides a description of the navigational components of the TransNav graphical user interface (GUI). Using the GUI, you can view the network or domains you are managing (Map View) or any particular shelf (Shelf View). Context-sensitive tabs are available for the view selected. The Map View (page 1-36) displays all the nodes in a network and is the initial display when you start the GUI. The Traverse Shelf View (page 1-39) displays all the cards (modules) in a node and their associated ports. The TE-100 Shelf View (page 1-42) displays the shelf view for the TE-100. This chapter also describes the following GUI features: GUI Menus, page 1-44 GUI Conventions, page 1-51 Resizing Capabilities, page 1-52 Scroll Bars, page 1-51 Resizing Capabilities, page 1-52 Release TN4.0.x Turin Networks Page 1-35
TransNav GUI Guide, Section 1: Installation and Overview Map View Map View Map View displays all of the node groups and discovered nodes for a server when you first start the GUI from that server. From Map View, you can see and manage all the nodes, node groups, links between the nodes, and network services. The graphic area displays a background image (usually a map of physical locations of the nodes) and icons representing the nodes. This initial background image is the Network Map view. Each node group can have a different background image associated with it; this is the Group Map. Each user can group the nodes to which they have access in order to more easily manage their areas of responsibility. They can also add node groups within existing node groups. The node groups appear in the server network navigation tree. Menu bar Alarm summary tree Network navigation tree Currently selected object Contextsensitive tabs Figure 1-22 Map View The menu bar is context-sensitive. Commands display as available (highlighted) or unavailable (grayed out), depending on the selected object. The server network alarm summary tree gives you visibility at a glance to network alarms. If you select a node group, only alarms associated with that node group display. The network navigation tree shows you the node groups and node networks attached to the server in an outline format in alphanumeric order. Node groups display first, then nodes. In Map View, clicking a node group or a node displays the node group or node name on the top and bottom bars of the window. To view the nodes in a node group, double-click the Group icon in Map View or expand the node group in the navigation tree. In Shelf View, right-clicking a node in the navigation tree or double-clicking the node in Map View to display a graphical representation of the node and related information; you can see which object (card or port) you have selected by the white rectangle around the object and the name that displays on the top and bottom bars of the window. The context-sensitive tabs provide server, node group, or node information on alarms, events, configuration information, protection, services, and service groups.

This chapter explains changing a password, roles, functional groups, and assigning access rights to domain users: Security Management, page 2-1 Password Changes, page 2-3 Guidelines to Managing Server Security, page 2-4 Access Roles, page 2-5 Domain Users, page 2-6 Functional Groups, page 2-7 Session List, page 2-10 A domain refers to an entire Traverse network. The terms domain and management domain are used interchangeably. A management plane domain is a set of Traverse nodes managed by a common TransNav system. A Functional Group is a user-defined combination of access roles enabling domain users access to assigned Traverse nodes. A Role is based on the responsibilities that network operation personnel have in their network; for example, Equipment Configuration Manager. On the TransNav management system, there are two categories of users: A Domain User uses the management system to access system resources either through the graphical user interface (GUI) or the command line interface (CLI). Domain operators can be given multiple user accounts with different roles. A Node User manages any node in a domain to which the user has access through the CLI. Users can be assigned to one or more nodes in the network. The ability to create, delete, and modify user accounts is available only to users in the Administrator role.

TransNav GUI Guide, Section 2: Administrative Tasks Security Management For the built-in primary administrator account, the password may be changed (and should be, for security reasons), but the account itself may not be deleted nor the groups changed. The management system uses this account to manage the node; deleting the account or reducing its privileges would make it impossible for the management system to manage the node. Domain administrators can control user access using roles and Functional Groups for domain users on the Traverse management (EMS) server. The Traverse has several pre-defined roles. Domain users in a Functional Group who have Administrator roles can access all of the system resources. They can limit access privileges of other domain users to a set of system features and resources with user-defined Functional Groups, known as Role-based Access Control (RBAC). A domain user can only belong to one Functional Group at a time. In the following example, Joe and Jeff are members of functional Group A and have Administrator role privileges to all nodes; Bob and Tim are members of Group B and have Fault Manager and Equipment Configuration Manager roles for Nodes 2 through 5; John and Sally are members of Group C and have Equipment Configuration Manager and Report Manager roles for Nodes 4 and 5. Figure 2-1 Functional Group Access Example A domain administrative user can use the Session List to see who is currently logged into the system. If necessary, an administrator can choose to terminate a user s current session. Page 2-2 Turin Networks Release TN4.0.x

Cancel: Cancel password change attempt and close the dialog box. Release TN4.0.x Turin Networks Page 2-3
TransNav GUI Guide, Section 2: Administrative Tasks Guidelines to Managing Server Security Guidelines to Managing Server Security The guidelines to managing server security are: For security reasons, only Administrators can add new users at the domain level. The User Manager role is available at the node-level only. If you do not specify a role when you create a user account, by default the user has only viewing privileges. The Viewer role is not directly provisionable. Domain users can only be assigned to one Functional Group per logon username and password. A separate logon username and password is required if access is needed to another functional group. If All Nodes is selected for a functional group, the users in that functional group will have access to all nodes in the network. This is required for roles, such as Equipment Configuration Managers, who must have All Nodes assigned to display protection ring information for the network. It is also required for provisioning end-to-end services. Page 2-4 Turin Networks Release TN4.0.x
Chapter 1 Managing Server Security Access Roles Access Roles Network operations personnel have different roles and responsibilities in the Operations, Administration, and Management (OAM) of their networks. Roles enable the network administrator to permit or restrict user access to various network operations. The TransNav management system has the following built-in roles whose allowable operations are defined below for Domain users: Table 2-1 Roles and Access Rights for Server Security Roles Administrator Equipment Configuration Manager Service Configuration Manager Report Manager Fault Manager (Viewer) Allowable Operations Provision and view everything in the system, including all user account data and security logs. Provision and view all node, card, port, and control plane parameters. Provision and view all services. Create, schedule, and view reports. Provision alarm severities; view alarm and event logs. Default. View everything; cannot perform any operations. You can access the Functional Groups Configuration dialog box from either the Domain User (Groups button) or Functional Groups selections on the Admin menu. Release TN4.0.x Turin Networks Page 2-5
TransNav GUI Guide, Section 2: Administrative Tasks Domain Users Domain Users A Domain User uses the management system to manage a domain of nodes through the server, either through the GUI or the CLI. Select Domain User from the Admin menu to display the Domain Users dialog box. Figure 2-3 Domain Users Dialog Box The Domain Users dialog box allows you to enter the following information: Username: Enter the user name. User names are case sensitive. They must be alphanumeric, 2 to 32 characters in length, and contain no special characters such as @$%*&. Hyphens (-) and spaces are allowed. Password: Enter the password. Passwords must be alphanumeric and 4 to 10 characters in length. They can contain spaces, hyphens (-), and/or special characters (such as @$%*&). If alphanumeric, they are also case-sensitive. Confirm: Re-enter the password. Timeout (min): Number of minutes after which an unused session will be closed. Valid values are: 0. Disables the feature. The session will never time out. 5 minutes, in 1 minute increments. A warning message appears two minutes before the session times out. Important: For security reasons, Turin recommends using the value 0 with extreme caution. Command buttons are as follows: Add: Add the new domain user name to the Username list. Update: Update the selected domain user s name with new information. Groups: Access the Functional Group Configuration dialog box. Clear: Clears current selections.

Chapter 1 Managing Server Security Functional Groups Delete: Delete the domain user highlighted in the Username box. A Confirm Delete dialog box displays reading Are you sure you would like to delete [Username]? Click Yes to delete or No to cancel. Done: Save the changes and close the dialog box. Turin recommends adding new domain users to a functional group as the user s profile is added to allow them access to nodes. Domain users with no roles or assigned nodes can log on to the TransNav management server, but will have only the Viewer role. Functional Groups A Functional Group is a user-defined combination of roles enabling domain users access to nodes to which they have been assigned access. Functional Groups can be defined to best match the network operator s security requirements for role-based access control. For example, a functional group called CentralCraft is created. Two users in the CentralCraft functional group, jsmith and mwesley, have the Report Manager role for NodeA. Both users will have access to all reports for only NodeA in the CentralCraft functional group; they cannot access reports for the any other nodes in the CentralCraft functional group. If you are a domain user with Administrator role rights, you can create and maintain functional groups from the Admin menu by selecting Functional Groups or the Domain User, Groups command button.

SECTION 3 NETWORK Chapter 1 Creating and Deleting Equipment Using Preprovisioning Introduction Auto-discovery and Preprovisioning Equipment in a network includes nodes, links, cards (modules), ports and external devices. This chapter describes how to create and delete equipment during the preprovisioning process. Auto-discovery and Preprovisioning, page 3-1 Add a Node, page 3-3 Node Parameters, page 3-4 Configure the Traverse SNMP Agent Parameters, page 3-8 Creating, Replacing, or Deleting a Card, page 3-10 Creating or Deleting Links, page 3-15 View Available Resources on a Link, page 3-17 Preprovisioning allows you to perform all configuration functions independent of service activation. Preprovisioning a network or network elements lets you plan for future configurations, facilitating rapid turn-up of new nodes and node expansions. Preprovision nodes on the Primary server. When the Primary server database is imported to the Secondary server, the preprovisioned node appears on the Secondary server. Using the TransNav management system, you connect directly to a Management Gateway Node (MGN). The management system communicates to the other nodes in the domain through the MGN using a data communications channel (DCC) between the nodes. Each node uses a process called auto-discovery to learn the addresses of all other nodes in its server domain. After you have commissioned a node with a name and an IP address, the management system discovers and manages all the nodes in the server domain without requiring any other preprovisioned information. Upon discovery of the equipment, the TransNav management server downloads the preprovisioned data to the node and builds the graphical representation of the equipment in Map View and Shelf View. If a piece of equipment has not been preprovisioned, it is assigned default parameters. To change parameters from the default values, see Section 5 Equipment Configuration.

Chapter 1 Creating and Deleting Equipment Using Preprovisioning Add a Node Add a Node In Map View, you can create or delete any node in the server domain. Use this information to help you create a node in or delete a node from the server domain. Nodes can later be grouped to make the network easier to manage. For more information, see Section 2 Administrative Tasks, Chapter 3 User Preferences, Grouping Nodes, page 2-18. Note: Turin recommends adding nodes on the Primary server. When the Primary server database is imported to the Secondary server, the preprovisioned node appears on the Secondary server. You can add a node in two ways: In Map View or Shelf View, select Add node from the Provisioning menu. In Map View, right-click the background image. Select Add node. The PreProvision New Node dialog box displays. Figure 3-1 PreProvision New Node Dialog Box Node Name: Enter the name of the node (maximum 50 characters; recommended maximum of 15 characters).

SECTION 3NETWORK Chapter 3 Node Timing Introduction Configure the timing source for each node in a server domain. For each node, you can configure either external timing or line timing from OC, EC3, or STM interfaces. Typically, one node in the central office receives redundant timing signals from an external source. This node becomes the primary timing source for the network. The other nodes receive the timing reference from optical interfaces. The primary reference is the shortest route to the primary timing source. Synchronized primary and secondary timing inputs from the external timing source are connected at the main backplane and bridged to the shelf s system control cards.

From Shelf View, click the Timing tab to configure global timing options for a node. Timing tab Subtabs Global options Figure 3-15 Node Global Timing Options The Timing tab allows you to view and set the following information: Standard: Displays the timing standard for the shelf: This value is set during node commissioning through the CLI (exec node commission standard). ANSI. For North American operations. ITU. For operations outside of North America. You must unprovision all currently provisioned timing references before you can switch between the ANSI and ITU standards. 1. Apply a lockout command to each reference on the reference list. (See Protection Switching External Timing References, page 3-31.) 2. Clear the reference source priority. Note: All currently provisioned references must be unprovisioned before changing the timing standard between ITU and ANSI. Unprovisioning a reference involves two separate steps: 1. Apply a lockout to each reference on the reference list, then 2. Clear the reference source priority and press Apply (in the case of line timing, also clear the line facility reference number). Timing Mode: External Time (default): Receive timing from standalone synchronization equipment (SASE) or a building integrated timing supply (BITS) reference. To configure external timing interfaces, see External Timing, page 3-24. Line Time: Receive timing signal from an OC line interfaces. To configure line timing, see Line Timing, page 3-27. Quality of RES (available if Standard is ANSI): Assigns a quality level for the RES message. Select one of the following options: PRS: Primary reference source. Equivalent to Stratum 1.

Chapter 3 Node Timing Global Timing Options Stratum 2 Transit Node Stratum 3E Stratum 3 SONET Min Clock Stratum 4E Stratum 4 Don t Use for Sync (default) Revertive: Select for revertive timing. Clear for non-revertive timing. In revertive timing, if the timing signal is lost from the highest priority timing source, the signal is received from the second priority timing source. If the highest priority timing source then becomes available, revertive timing switches back to the highest priority timing source. In non-revertive timing, timing does not switch back to the highest priority timing source when it becomes available. External Out Enable: Enables or disable derived references. Derived timing is the process of providing a timing reference from a line interface and sending it to an external clock. Select: This node generates a timing signal to an external clock. Clear (default): This node does not generate a timing signal to an external clock. Ignore SSMR: Ignore the synchronization status message received. Select (default): The node will use provisioned priorities to select the best timing reference Clear: The node will use SSM level to prioritize timing references. Clock Mode: Displays the state of the timing sub-system. Free Run: Used after a power-on-reset before network synchronization is achieved. PreLock: After a valid reference is found, the timing sub-system enters this state for a maximum of 100 seconds. If the system cannot lock to a reference within 100 seconds, it reverts to Free Run mode until another source is selected. Locked: Used when an input reference source has been selected and the system locks onto the reference as a primary source. Holdover: Used when the system has acquired a stable frequency, but the selected sources are unavailable. Holdover Quality: Displays the clock quality (Stratum 3) of the local oscillator on the GCM cards. WTR Time: Time, in minutes, the system will wait before considering the primary timing source as valid again. This time ensures that a previously failed synchronization source is fault-free before it is considered available. Enter a value between 1 and 12. The value 0 disables this function. The Reference List section depends on the value in the Timing Mode parameter. If Timing Mode is External, see External Timing, page 3-24. If Timing Mode is Line, see Line Timing, page 3-27.

SECTION 3NETWORK Chapter 5 Configuring IP Quality of Service Introduction Use IP QoS (IP Quality of Service) to allow or block traffic from certain IP hosts or networks based on entries made in an access control list (ACL). The ACL is searched when IP packets are received from a DCC or backplane DCN. IP packets are dropped or forwarded based on the ACL conditions set. Outgoing messages are maintained in a classifier table and can be prioritized as High Priority or Best Effort. IP packets originating from the TransNav management server or other Traverse/TE-100 nodes are given High Priority status. IP packets originating from third-party vendor equipment are prioritized as Best Effort unless determined to be High Priority in the Classifier list. Important: Use extreme caution when making ACL entries. The TransNav management system uses the multicast address 224.0.0.5 for OSPF messaging. Any ACL entry that blocks this multicast address or the IP addresses of the TransNav management server(s) or the Traverse nodes will cause link failure between the Traverse nodes and/or the TransNav server(s). Turin strongly recommends that this IP address not be blocked. For more information on internet multicast addresses, see http://www.iana.org/assignments/multicast-addresses. This chapter contains the following topics: Global Parameters Tab, page 3-36 Static Classifier Tab, page 3-37 Dynamic Classifier Tab, page 3-38 ACL Tab, page 3-39 Statistics Tab, page 3-41 See the TransNav Management System Product Overview Guide, Section 2 Management System Planning, Chapter 3 IP Address Planning, page 2-11 for information and procedures on provisioning IP Quality of Service.

This also clears the Wait to Restore state of the selected node. Lockout Protecting Ring: Prevent protection switches anywhere in the ring. If any working traffic is using the protection channels on any span, this command causes traffic to switch back to the working channels regardless of the condition of the working channels. Forced Switch Ring: Perform the ring switch from the working channels to the protection channels for the span between the node where the command is initiated and the adjacent node to which the command is destined. This switch occurs regardless of the state of the protection channels, unless the protection channels are satisfying a higher priority request. Manual Switch Ring: Perform the ring switch from the working channels to the protection channels for the span between the node where the command is initiated and the node to which the command is destined. This switch occurs if the protection channels to be used are operating at a BER better than the signal degrade threshold and are not satisfying an equal or higher priority request (including failure of the protection channels). Switching request priorities (from highest to lowest) for BLSR or MS-SP ring protection are: Clear: User-initiated action. Lockout of Protection: User-initiated action. Forced Switch (ring): User-initiated protection switch. Signal Fail (ring): System-initiated protection switch. An SF is defined as a hard failure caused by a Loss of Signal (LOS), a line BER exceeding a preselected threshold, a line AIS, or some other hard failure. Signal Degrade (ring): System-initiated protection switch. An SD is defined as a soft failure caused by a BER exceeding a preselected threshold. Manual Switch (ring): User-initiated protection switch. Wait to Restore (WTR): User-configurable setting. This request is issued when working channels meet the restore threshold after an SD or SF condition. Exerciser (ring): This command exercises ring protection switching of the requested channel without completing the actual bridge and switch. The command is issued and the responses are checked, but no working traffic or extra traffic is affected. No Request. Release TN4.0.x Turin Networks Page 4-5

In each group, the cards alternate the active and standby roles, with only the active cards sending and receiving data on the backplane. Unlike other equipment protection groups, a CEPP effectively doubles the number of physical Ethernet ports of a single NGE Plus card. All line-side ports on both cards connect to the CEPP and carry independent traffic. When both cards are up, CEPP behaves like a single card with 40 physical Ethernet and 64 EOS ports. An inter-card Link Aggregation Group (LAG) allows you to set up a LAG for protection in a CEPP by allowing you to link either two ports on the same card or to link two ports on two compatible cards, thus sharing the capacity of a single port. If a link or a card goes down, all of the traffic will be carried on the remaining link, offering both facility and equipment protection for a single Ethernet signal. Each inter-card LAG in a CEPP can contain up to 8 ports and each CEPP can support up to 20 LAGs. For a CEPP LAG, the ports can be on the same card or spread across two cards. If the ports are on two separate cards, the cards must have the same type of port configuration: either both are 4-port optical or both are 2-port electrical / 2-port optical cards. An NGE Plus card can only be in one CEPP at a time. Page 4-30 Turin Networks Release TN4.0.x

SECTION 4PROTECTION SWITCHING Chapter 7 1+1 Optimized Protection Groups Introduction 1+1 optimized protection bridges traffic simultaneously over two lines: section 1 and section 2. There is a primary section and a secondary section. In normal operation, the system selects traffic from the primary section (active traffic). All switch requests (automatic or forced) are from the primary section to the secondary section. Once a switch request clears, the traffic selector stays on the section to which it was switched. That section then becomes the primary section if there are no further switch requests. If a failure occurs on the secondary section, the traffic selector remains on traffic from the primary section. If a failure occurs on the secondary section during a protection switch, the initial switch request is abandoned. This chapter contains information on the following topics: Create a 1+1 Optimized Protection Group, page 4-34 Primary State Commands, page 4-36 Secondary State Commands, page 4-36 Request Priorities for 1+1 Optimized Protection, page 4-36 For guidelines and procedures to provision an optimized protection group, see either the Traverse Provisioning Guide or TraverseEdge 100 User Guide.

SECTION 5EQUIPMENT Chapter 1 Common Equipment Introduction When to Change Card Parameters Protection Groups and Card Configuration Equipment in a TransNav managed network includes nodes, links, cards (modules), ports, and other external equipment. This chapter explains the following information for the cards supported in this release: When to Change Card Parameters, page 5-1 Protection Groups and Card Configuration, page 5-1 Equipment States, page 5-2 This chapter also explains all the parameters that appear on each card. See the following sections for specific details: Equipment States, page 5-2 To create and delete equipment during the preprovisioning process, see Chapter 1 Creating and Deleting Equipment Using Preprovisioning. Change parameters for each card: During the preprovisioning process. Upon discovery of the equipment, the management server downloads the preprovisioned data to the node. After the equipment is discovered. If a piece of equipment has not been preprovisioned when it is discovered, it is assigned default parameters. Change the default values on the Config tab. If you have configured a card as part of a protection group, you can only configure parameters on the working card. Down arrows on selections are grayed out (unavailable) for parameters on the protecting card. Parameters on a port on a protecting card are automatically set to those configured for the same port on the working card. For example, if Line Format is set to M23 for port 1, slot 2 (the working card), Line Format will also be set to M23 for port 1, slot 1 (the protecting card). For information on setting up protection groups, see Section 4 Protection Switching. Release TN4.0.x Turin Networks Page 5-1

Insert Alternate VLAN Ethertype: Select to indicate the Alternate VLAN Ethertype should be used for outgoing packets with VLAN tags for a specific port. Enable this parameter if one or more ports are connected to devices that require this alternate value. In addition, enable the Insert Alternate VLAN Ethertype parameter on those ports. On NGE and NGE Plus cards, the alternate value is used in all VLAN tags in a packet. On 10GbE or GbE-10 cards, the system distinguishes between inner (customer) and outer (service) tags. Inner tags must have 0x8100 Ethertype; outer tags must match the setting of this parameter. For example, if 0x9100 is selected then only service tags with 0x9100 will be recognized. If only one tag exists, the outer tag and the statements made for service tags apply. 8100 (default): The system uses this standard Ethertype value. 9100: The system also accepts packets with the Ethertype value of 9100 in the VLAN tag. FE Insert Alternate VLAN Ethertype and FE EOS Insert Alternate VLAN Ethertype (TE-100 only): If the Alternative VLAN Ethertype parameter is configured for this card, the system also accepts packets with the Ethertype value of 9100 in the VLAN tag.

Egress Priority CoS{1 2 3}: Whenever the TE-100 system creates a new VLAN tag (either a Customer tag or a Service tag) for an Ethernet packet, it inserts a value into the Priority field of the new VLAN tag. The Priority value inserted in the new tag is called the Egress Priority and is derived from the internal CoS that the TE-100 assigned to the packet when it arrived. Instruct the TE-100 to use a specific Egress Priority (a number between 0 and 7) for each value of internal CoS (a value from 1 to 3) by provisioning the three Egress Priority parameters. Egress Priority CoS1 for class of service 1 Egress Priority CoS2 for class of service 2 Egress Priority CoS3 for class of service 3 By default, all three parameters are 0 which means that an Egress Priority of 0 will be inserted into every added tag, regardless of the internal CoS. By industry convention, Priority 0 is highest priority and Priority 7 is lowest priority.

Figure 5-29 Traverse GBE Advanced Parameters Max Info Rate (Mbps) (TE-100, NGE, and NGE Plus only): Specify the maximum ingress data rate (in Mbps) allowed for this port. If the PAUSE feature is enabled for this port, the system sends a PAUSE frame when the ingress rate hits the rate specified in this parameter. The link partner should limit its rate of transmission to the value specified in this parameter. If the PAUSE feature is disabled for this port, or if the link partner does not respond properly to the PAUSE frame, then the link partner s transmission may exceed MIR. The incoming packets above this rate are discarded. ETH100TX ports: Enter an integer between 1 and 100; default is 100. GBE, GBETX, LAG, EOS ports: Enter an integer between 1 and 1000; default is 1000. Page 5-58 Turin Networks Release TN4.0.x

Use this parameter in conjunction with Max Info Rate (Mbps) to operate as a single token bucket that meters incoming traffic. The response of the system to incoming traffic depends on whether PAUSE is enabled on the Ethernet port. If PAUSE is enabled on the Ethernet port, then the system controls the flow by sending a PAUSE frame when the ingress traffic approaches MIR. If the peer responds correctly to the PAUSE frame, then this mechanism is lossless from a TE-100 s point of view. The system drops traffic if PAUSE is disabled on the Ethernet port or the peer does not correctly respond to the PAUSE frame. The system drops all traffic that does not conform to the token bucket traffic that arrives in excess of MIR / MBS. Default Ingress Priority (TE-100 only): Used in the classification of packets for packets that arrive untagged and therefore do not have a priority field. Set the default priority for untagged packets arriving on this port. Enter a value from 0 to 7; the default is 0.

SECTION 6SERVICES Chapter 1 Service Creation Concepts Introduction Traverse Services Definition Supported Features Creating services in a TransNav managed network requires that you first identify switching requirements, bandwidth requirements, and service types. This chapter explains the particulars of services on a Traverse platform: Traverse Services Definition, page 6-1 Supported Features, page 6-1 Transport Capacity, page 6-4 Traverse Service Types, page 6-5 Service Creation Process, page 6-8 End-to-End Services Over Mixed Topologies, page 6-7 For provisioning procedures and examples of supported services, see the Traverse Provisioning Guide or the TraverseEdge 100 User Guide. A service in a TransNav managed network connects traffic from a source to a destination. The source can be a port, subport, channel, or path. The source originates on any card. The destination of the service varies depending on the connection you are creating. The destination can be a compatible card, port, subport, or another service. Additionally, the destination can be on the same node or on a separate node. There are three types of services on a Traverse system: regular SONET, Ethernet, or VC-Bundle for transport of Ethernet services. DS3 Transmux. Transmultiplexing functionality is provided by the Traverse DS3/EC-1 Transmux card. This capability is important in applications where incoming traffic is channelized DS3 and the payload of the outgoing circuit needs to be VT-mapped, such as those that are handed off to the Traverse switch fabric. Bridging and Rolling. The Traverse system supports transferring services from one facility to another without dropping traffic. See the Traverse Provisioning Guide, Section 5 Creating Service Applications, Chapter 2 Bridging and Rolling Services, page 5-13. Release TN4.0.x Turin Networks Page 6-1
TransNav GUI Guide, Section 6: Services Transport Capacity Multicast Connections. Multicast connections are connections made from one source to multiple destinations. The Traverse system supports multicast connections for the following services: SONET-STS SONET-VT Ethernet SDH-VC4 SDH-VC3 Use multicast connections to create drop-and-continue services in a network of Traverse nodes. Optical Transmux. The Transmux component also transparently provides this transmux capability when traffic ingresses and egresses the Traverse system using an optical interface. In this case, the Transmux component receives incoming DS1/E1-mapped DS3s from the Traverse backplane and converts the outgoing signal to VT-mapped STS-1s or VC-mapped AU-3s. Resource Advisory. If this feature is enabled, the system displays only available resources. Ports, paths, and other resources assigned to activated services appear in the graphical user interface with an asterisk (*). SDH to SONET Interworking. The Traverse platform supports SDH to SONET interworking capabilities. That is, you can connect an SDH signal to a SONET signal. The Traverse supports the following gateway services: DS1 over SDH E1 over SONET SDH to SONET SONET to SDH VT/VC Switching. Turin offers two options to switch traffic at the VT/VC levels: VT/TU 5G Switch card VTX/VCX integrated cards See the Traverse Product Overview Guide, Section 3 Card (Module) Descriptions, Chapter 6 VT/VC Switching Cards for detailed descriptions of these VT/VC switching options. Transport Capacity In a TransNav managed network, you can switch traffic at different levels of the optical hierarchy. In SONET, you can switch traffic at the VT layer, at the STS layer, or at the concatenated STS layers. In SDH, you can switch traffic at the low order virtual container (LOVC) layers, at the high order VC-3, or at the concatenated VC (VC-3-nc or VC-4-nc) layers. Page 6-2 Turin Networks Release TN4.0.x

Use this service to create a dedicated point-to-point service, a shared point-to-point service, or an internet access application. Release TN4.0.x Turin Networks Page 6-5
TransNav GUI Guide, Section 6: Services Traverse Service Types Table 6-4. Ethernet Services (continued) Bridge Service Type Aggregation Bridge Definition and Reference A bridge service is a forwarding relationship between an arbitrary number of endpoints on the same card. Any of the endpoints can be shared (by VLAN ID) with other services. Within a single bridge service, a packet is forwarded to one endpoint or to all endpoints using standard MAC address forwarding rules. Use this service to create a Virtual LAN Service application in the network. An aggregation bridge service is a hybrid of a line service and a bridge service. It is a forwarding relationship between a set of endpoints on a card, where one endpoint is considered the aggregation port and the other endpoints are considered ordinary members of the service. Traffic received on the aggregation port is forwarded just as in a bridge service to one or more ordinary members based on the destination MAC address. Traffic received on the ordinary members of the service is forwarded directly to the single aggregation port. Page 6-6 Turin Networks Release TN4.0.x
Chapter 1 Service Creation Concepts End-to-End Services Over Mixed Topologies Service Creation Models You can create services in a Traverse network either end-to-end or hop-by-hop. You can create services in a TraverseEdge network hop-by-hop only. An end-to-end service is a service you can set up between nodes. You select the source of a service on one node and the destination on another. The system sets up the path (including the alternate path if the service is protected) through the domain.

If all ports in this service are tagged Port-based, the value in this parameter is ignored, including the default of 0. For packets arriving on Customer-tagged ports in this service, the Service VLAN ID must match the customer VLAN ID. A value of 0 means that untagged and priority-tagged packets are part of this service. For packets arriving on Service-tagged ports in this service, the Service VLAN ID must match the service provider VLAN ID for the provider network. Untagged or priority-tagged packets that arrive on Service-tagged ports are dropped. Note: VLANs marked Customer-tagged or Service-tagged represent separate service flows on the port; counts for each type are per-vlan. Conversely, port-based packets are part of the service flow and cannot be collected separately per-vlan. Link Integrity (for Ethernet line services only): Monitors the status of Ethernet ports or LAGs, and the associated transport connection. You configure link integrity on two line services that use exactly one Ethernet port and one EOS port on the ingress and egress nodes of the network. Neither the Ethernet port nor the EOS port can be in any other activated service. Disable (default): Indicates the Link Integrity feature is not used on this service.

See the TraverseEdge 100 User Guide Section 6 Creating Ethernet Services, Chapter 6 Ethernet Services, Configurable VLAN IDs, page 6-68 for valid VLAN IDs. Guaranteed Data Rate and Ethernet Services The Guaranteed Data Rate is the total rate of Ethernet data including both the data packets themselves and the per-packet Ethernet line overhead: 8-byte preamble, 12-byte inter-packet gap. Note: For the 10GbE and GbE-10 modules, only the STS-1/VC-3 and STS-3c/VC-4 ports are currently supported. The sum of all guaranteed data rates for all services sharing the destination port must be less than or equal to the maximum capacity of the transport path (tunnel, endpoints, or VC-Bundle) or the backplane connection. The table below shows the maximum capacities. These are the limits used by Connection Admission Control (CAC) that, when exceeded, cause the system to reject a new service. Table 6-11 CAC Limits for Sum of All Guaranteed Data Rates Sharing a Port Port Type CAC limits in Mbps VT-1.5 or VC11 1.600 VT-2 or VC12 2.176 STS-1 or STS-1 48.384 STS-3c or STS-3c 149.760 For example, if three P2PS services share a transport path with a Bandwidth of STS-3c, the sum of the Guaranteed Data Rates for these three services must not exceed 149 Mbps. If those three P2PS services share a transport path with a Bandwidth of STS-48c, the sum of the Guaranteed Data Rates for those three services must not exceed 1000 Mbps. In a VCAT group of N members, the payload capacity is N times the maximum numbers in the above table. For example, a VCAT group of 8 VT-1.5s can carry 8 times 1.600 Mbps (12.8 Mpbs) of GFP-encapsulated Ethernet frames. Every Ethernet frame that goes over SONET has 8 bytes of GFP encapsulation. If 3000 frames per second is being sent and each frame is 256 bytes, then 6.336 Mbps is being sent. This is 3000 x (256 bytes + 8 byte GFP) x 8 bits/byte = 6.336 Mpbs. A VCG of four VT-1.5s is required to carry the traffic (6.336 Mpbs divided by 1.600 equals 3.96 VT1.5s). Release TN4.0.x Turin Networks Page 6-45

For a CIR/PIR of 1000, the maximum CBS/PBS the NGE can implement is 1759. The maximum Peak Burst Size of the 10 GbE and GbE-10 cards is unlimited. Up to 16000 Kb can be supported at all rates. If you provision a burst size (committed or peak) that is less than or equal to the calculated maximum burst size for your given information rate, the system uses the provisioned burst size. However, if you provision a burst size that is larger than the calculated maximum burst size for the given information rate, the system uses the calculated maximum burst size. Examples are as follows: If a CIR of 50 and a CBS of 256 is provisioned, the calculated maximum CBS for a CIR of 50 is 351. The provisioned value is less than 351, so the system implements the provisioned value of 256. If a PIR of 50 and a PBS of 768 are provisioned, the calculated maximum PBS for a PIR of 50 is 351. The provisioned value is greater than the calculated value, so the system ignores the provisioned value and implements the calculated value of 351.

SECTION 6SERVICES Chapter 5 VC-Bundles Introduction Virtual concatenation (VCAT) is an inverse multiplexing technique based on ITU-T G.707/Y.1322 and G.783 standards, that supports the bundling of multiple independent lower-rate channels into a higher rate channel. VCAT enables efficient mapping of Ethernet frames directly into a payload of separate path signals, known as a virtual concatenation group (VCG). For example, in SDH standards, a VC-3-6v is a virtually concatenated path multiplexed onto six STS-1 paths. Its bandwidth is six times that of an STS-1. In SONET standards, an STS1-6c is a virtually concatenated path multiplexed onto six STS-1 paths. Its bandwidth is six times that of an STS-1. This mapping technique eliminates the rigid hierarchies of the common SONET/SDH containers and enables service providers to provision and transport data services more efficiently. On a Traverse system, the VC-bundle services also controls how an Ethernet frame is encapsulated into a SONET frame (either GFP or X.86).

TransNav GUI Guide, Section 7: DCS Applications DCS-384 Matrix Shelf DCS-384 Matrix Shelf A DCS-384 matrix shelf is the node in a Traverse multi-shelf DCS application that performs the VT switching. The DCS-384 matrix shelves provides a non-blocking matrix able to cross-connect and groom 384 STSs worth of VT1.5s. A Traverse 2000 commissioned as a DCS-384 matrix shelf uses the following configuration: Slots 1 to 10 contain VT/TU 5G Switch cards Slots 11 to 18 contain 2-port OC-48 cards (DCS trunks) Slots 19 and 20 contain redundant shelf controllers 5 G V T S W 5 G V T S W 5 G V T S W 5 G V T S W 5 G V T S W 5 G V T S W 5 G V T S W 5 G V T S W 5 G V T S W 5 G V T S W 2 P O C 4 8 2 P O C 4 8 2 P O C 4 8 2 P O C 4 8 2 P O C 4 8 2 P O C 4 8 2 P O C 4 8 2 P O C 4 8 G C M G C M W W W W W W W W W P 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Node1 (DCS-384) DCS-IO shelves Figure 7-1 DCS-384 Shelf Configuration The VT/TU 5G Switch cards groom the incoming and outgoing VT1.5s STSs. The minimum configuration of a DCS-384 matrix shelf requires two VT/TU 5G cards (a working and a protect) and one VT/TU 5G card for each 2-port OC-48 card. The matrix shelf connects to external shelves (called DCS-IO) shelves with protected OC-48 links. Eight pairs of OC-48 DCS trunks are required to supply 384 STSs of incoming and outgoing VT1.5s. When you commission a DCS-384 matrix shelf, it is created and preprovisioned with ten VT/TU 5G Switch cards and eight 2-port OC-48 cards. A DCS-384 matrix shelf is also automatically preprovisioned with the following protection groups: Eight 1+1 APS protection groups for the OC-48 cards One 1:N equipment protection group for the VT/TU 5G Switch cards Create the DCS-384 matrix shelf when you commission the node. See the Traverse Installation and Commissioning Guide, Section 11 Node Start-up and Commissioning Procedures for node commissioning procedures. Page 7-2 Turin Networks Release TN4.0.x
Chapter 1 DCS-384 Matrix Shelf MSAID Formats What is an MSAID? The matrix STS identifier (MSAID) is the format of the access identifier (AID) used as the reference in creating cross connects on a DCS shelf. The MSAID is a global STS identifier for the matrix. Commissioning a DCS-384 matrix shelf automatically assigns MSAID 1 to s-11/p-1/sts-1 (slot 11, port 1, sts-1). The MSAID numbers increment with each subsequent STS on the port, then move to the next working port and subsequent STS. A user cannot change the assignments on the DCS-384 matrix shelf. MSAID Formats The MSAID format specifies how the VT service maps into the payload of the SONET frame. Specify the MSAID format during node commissioning. MSAID-VTG-VT is the default and can be used even in a mixed-mapping environment. All incoming STS to the matrix shelf must have the same MSAID formats. Turin recommends that MSAID formats match on all shelves in the DCS application.

SECTION 8MAINTENANCE AND TESTING Chapter 1 Performance Monitoring Introduction A node accumulates counts of various error conditions in performance monitoring (PM) registers. Depending on the particular error condition, a register increments to track the specific error. The PM data contained in the registers are used to determine when and where problems are likely to occur. Similarly, capacity monitoring of the switching capacity on VT/TU cards (modules) allows operators to monitor available resources and plan resources accordingly.

SECTION 8MAINTENANCE AND TESTING Chapter 2 Alarms Introduction During normal operation of the system, various conditions can arise that require attention by network operations. Alarms alert you to system operational changes. Alarms are conditions with a state of active or cleared. The TransNav graphical user interface (GUI) provides domain-wide (in Map View) and node-specific (in Shelf View) alarm information on the context-sensitive Alarms tab. Alarm management consists of monitoring, tracking, and analyzing alarms and events. This chapter contains information on retrieving alarm information: Service Affecting Status, page 8-12 Alarm Severity Levels, page 8-12 Alarm Hierarchy, page 8-12 Alarm List on the Alarms Tab, page 8-14 Viewing Alarm Details, page 8-15 Grouping Alarms, page 8-16 Setting Alarm Filters, page 8-17 Viewing Existing Alarm Profiles, page 8-20 Creating New Alarm Profiles, page 8-21 Sorting Alarm Profiles, page 8-23 Saving and Importing User Preferences, page 8-23 See Chapter 3 Events, page 8-25 for information on events. See the Node Operations and Maintenance Guide for a detailed list of alarms and recommended actions. Release TN4.0.x Turin Networks Page 8-11
TransNav GUI Guide, Section 8: Maintenance and Testing Service Affecting Status Service Affecting Status Alarm Severity Levels Alarm Hierarchy Two levels of service affecting status are used in the alarm definitions: Service Affecting (SA): Indicates that a service affecting condition has occurred and an immediate corrective action is required. Non-Service Affecting (NSA): Indicates that a non-service affecting condition has occurred. Service affecting alarms apply when protection is not available. This same alarm is considered non-service affecting if the equipment or facility is protected. Alarms listed as non-service affecting do not affect service regardless of equipment or facility protection scheme. Some alarms are always service affecting, some are always non-service affecting, and some can be either, depending on the circumstances. An alarm on unprotected equipment or facilities may be critical, whereas, this same alarm is not considered critical if the equipment or facility is protected. Alarms listed as minor or warning are not considered service affecting regardless of the protection scheme. The following severity levels, from the most severe to the least severe, are defined and used in the alarm and event definitions: Critical (red): A severe, service affecting condition has occurred. Immediate corrective action is imperative, regardless of the time of the day or day of the week. Major (orange): A hardware or software condition has occurred that indicates a serious disruption of service or the malfunctioning or failure of important circuits. This requires the immediate attention and response of a technician to restore or maintain system capability. The urgency is less than in critical situations because of a lesser immediate or impending effect on service or system performance. Minor (yellow): Trouble has occurred that does not have a serious effect on service to customers or trouble in circuits has occurred that is not essential to node operation. Corrective action should be taken in order to prevent a more serious fault. Warning (cyan): A potential or impending service affecting event may occur; no significant effects have been felt. Action should be taken to further diagnose, if necessary, and correct the problem in order to prevent it from becoming a more serious fault. In general, severity levels of Critical, Major, Minor, and Warning are reported to the Alarms and Events tabs in the GUI. A severity level of Info is reported to the Events tab only. This system conforms to the alarm reporting hierarchy set forth in the Telcordia General Requirements GR-253, ETSI 300-417-3-1, and ITU recommendation G.783. Page 8-12 Turin Networks Release TN4.0.x
Chapter 2 Alarms Alarms Tab Alarms Tab When you open the GUI, the default view is the Alarm tab on Map View. The Alarms tab displays a list of the alarms in the domain. Click on a node to display the alarm list for that specific node.

Hold down the Shift key and click the second column again to switch between ascending and descending order within the first category. StickyMode Selecting this check box freezes the current alarm display which can be useful during troubleshooting. Alarms remain in the order displayed at the time the checkbox was selected, regardless of a change in severity level. For example, if alarms are currently sorted by decreasing severity level, critical alarms would be displayed first, followed by major, minor, and so on. New alarms are not reported, but deleted alarms are removed (when a node is deleted, all of its alarms are deleted). If the StickyMode check box is clear, when a critical alarm is cleared, it is moved to the bottom of the list. If the StickyMode check box is selected, that alarm remains at the top of the list, while its severity changes from Critical to Clear. Important: Turin recommends opening a new window before selecting StickyMode so that new alarms continue to be reported. Page 8-14 Turin Networks Release TN4.0.x

TransNav GUI Guide, Section 8: Maintenance and Testing Event Types Event Types Event Logs Events alert the operator to changes to the system. Each of these changes are logged and can be any one of the following event types: Provisioning events. The node has made a change to its configuration in response to a request from a management entity. Performance events. The value of a Performance Management (PM) parameter has crossed a provisioned threshold. This threshold crossing alert (TCA) may indicate service deterioration and require operator attention. Security events. A user has logged in or out of the node, an attempted login has failed, or a user has made some change to the user account database. Normal operational events. Normal and expected occurrences, such as initialization completed or control plane connection established with other nodes. They are logged for information only. Fault events (alarms). Fault conditions that may affect service and require operator attention. Fault events generate and clear alarms. The system raises an alarm when it first detects a fault condition. While the fault condition persists, the alarm is active. When the system detects that a fault condition no longer exists, it clears the alarm. The clearing may be automatic or a result of an operator action (e.g., replacing a bad card). All events (including alarm fault events) are logged on either the Traverse General Control Card (GCM) or TraverseEdge 100 System card. The events logged are not persistent reboots clear the logs. For user-accessible, longer-term secure storage, an Event Log is stored on the TransNav server. This log provides easy access to information about recent events. Included in the TransNav server Event Log is the following information: Type of event (configuration, fault, performance, and security) Timestamp Component or subsystem detecting the event Descriptive text about the event The Event Log maintains a configurable number of events for a specified length of time. The oldest events are deleted after the limit has been reached; the default is 30 days. This length of time is also configurable. Turin recommends performing regular backups of the log files. One way to accomplish this is to use the Report Scheduler and set up a regularly generated report on events.

TransNav GUI Guide, Section 8: Maintenance and Testing Facility Loopback Tests Facility Loopback Tests In general, a facility loopback connects the incoming received signal to the associated transmitter in the return direction. Tributary module OC-N/STM-N transport module Test Set LIU AIS LIU Facility under loopback test Node Figure 8-31 Facility Loopback During a facility loopback, an alarm indication signal (AIS) is inserted and sent to the far end. A facility loopback tests the integrity of the line interface unit on the card. Terminal Loopback Tests In a terminal loopback, the signal that is about to be transmitted is connected to the associated, incoming receiver. Tributary module OC-N/STM-N transport module Bridged signal LIU LIU Test Set Facility under loopback test Node Figure 8-32 Terminal Loopback During a terminal loopback, the test signal is bridged back to the test set to verify the receiver associated with the facility and the integrity of the transmitted signal. An AIS is not inserted and sent to the far end. Before performing a terminal loopback, a service must be set up between this port and another port on the same node.
