MALC Provisioning

1
MALC Provisioning

• SE Training
• October 2005

2
Management

• There are three primary management interfaces
• Local Craft (serial) port for terminal access
• Ethernet port for standard IP address assignment
  and management
• RFC 1483 routed IP connection over the ATM
  interface (inband management)
• Initial configuration must be done over the craft
  port.
• Once an IP address has been assigned, users can
  manage the system using telnet (CLI), ZMS-LT, or
  ZMS.
• The MALC supports 5 concurrent telnet sessions
  and 1 console session.

3
Serial (Craft) Port

• Communication parameters
• 9600 bps
• 8 data bits
• No parity
• 1 stop bit
• No flow control
• (the default configuration of the serial port can
  be changed using an rs232-profile)
• Login admin
• Password (default zhone)
• zSHgt // CLI Prompt
• To log out of the system use the logout command
• To enable or disable logging on the serial port
• zSHgt log session on off

4
Exercise Log into the serial port

• Objective
• Log into the serial port (one session allowed)
  using Hyperterminal or other terminal program

5
Configuring Management Interfaces

• The MALC can be configured remotely using
• Uplink card Ethernet Interface
• A single Ethernet interface on the Uplink card
  designed for managing traffic
• ATM management connection
• Device terminates an ATM PVC and routes it over
  an Ethernet interface for managing traffic
• ZMS
• ZMS communicates with the system using SNMP traps

6
Uplink Card Ethernet Interface

• Ethernet interface on the Uplink card designed
  for management traffic.
• The interface-add command specifies the basic
  parameters of the IP interface e.g. IP address
  and Netmask.
• The ip-interface-record for the Uplink card is
  named ethernet1. This interface is shared between
  the two Ethernet ports on redundant Uplink cards
  (if they exist).
• The system can be reached using the address
  configured in the ethernet1 ip-interface-record,
  no matter which card is active.

7
Configuring the Ethernet IP Interface

• The following examples configure the IP address
  for the system
• zSHgt interface add 1-1-1-0/ethernetcsmacd
  192.168.1.33/24
• zSHgt interface add 1-1-1-0/ethernetcsmacd vlan
  999 192.168.1.33/24
• zSHgt interface show
• In example 1, the IP address is untagged and in
  example 2, it is tagged using vlan id 999

8
Creating a default route

• The following example creates a default route
  using the gateway 192.168.1.1 with a cost of 1
  (one)
• route add default 192.168.1.1 1
• Use the route show and route list commands to
  verify that the route was added.
• Use the ping command to verify connectivity to
  the default gateway.
• Use the interface show command

9
Exercise Configure an Ethernet Interface and
Route

• Objective
• Provision the ip-interface-record for remote
  telnet capability and add the default route
• Use IP addresses provided by instructor
• Log out of the console connection
• Telnet to MALC using the IP address
• Use the interface show command to verify that the
  Ethernet interface was configured correctly
• Use the route show/route list/interface show
  commands to verify the route/connectivity
• Use the ping command to verify connectivity to
  the default gateway

10
Adding Users

• The adduser command creates a new user account
  and adds it to the database. The command also
  generates a random password which the user can
  change with the changepass command.

CLI Basics

• The CLI contains profiles, which are templates
  for configuring the system records, which are
  specific instances of profiles and commands,
  which manipulate records or perform system
  functions (such as displaying line status).
• The 5 profile commands
• list
• get
• update
• new
• delete

19
MALC Default Configuration

• Slot cards (except the Uplink card) must be
  enabled in a card-profile before they will boot
  up.
• A single record for the Ethernet interface on the
  Uplink card exists. No other profiles to
  configure physical interfaces exist.
• A default system profile 0 exists with the
  following configuration
• Authentication traps are not enabled
• ZMS communication is not configured

20
Profile Indexes

• The CLI is based on profiles. These profiles are
  stored with an index. The index will either
  represent the physical port location or a user
  defined index number.
• Indexes that represent a physical port location
  use the convention shelf-slot-port-subport/porttyp
  e
• Examples
• 1/10/5012 shelf/slot/cardid
• 1-1-1-0/ip - shelf/slot/port/subport
• zSHgt get if-translate 1-4-25-0/adsl -gt s-s-p-s/t
• zSHgt get atm-traf-descr 99 -gt user defined

21
List

• The command list has two different functions
• As a stand alone command, it will display all
  available profiles
• list profile-type will list all instances of this
  profile-type
• zSHgt list if-translate
• if-translate 1-1-2-0/ethernetcsmacd
• if-translate 1-1-2-0-ethernetcsmacd/other
• 2 entries found.

22
Get

• The command get will retrieve a profile that
  exists on the device and display all of the
  configuration settings

24
New

• The new command creates a new profile. Once this
  profile is saved, it is added to the working
  database. This is most commonly used with
  atm-vcl, atm-traf-descr, etc.

zSHgt new atm-traf-descr 10 Please provide the
following quit. td_type -----------------gt

  system will verify the delete before completing
  the command. Answering yes will delete the
  profile
• zSHgt list atm-traf-descr
• atm-traf-descr 10
• 1 entry found.
• zSHgt delete atm-traf-descr 10
• atm-traf-descr 10
• 1 entry found.
• Delete atm-traf-descr 10? yes, no, quit y
• atm-traf-descr 10 deleted.

26

• Use the dir command to confirm the software is in
  the directory
• Using the .bin image, create new card profiles
  for each card in the system
• Use the showredundancy command for the uplinks
• Confirm the cards boot up properly
• Note
• Card profile for slot 1 is automatically created
• Redundant uplinks must have the same
  card-group-id

34
System Clocking

• The MALC can receive system clocking from one of
  the following sources
• The DS1 interfaces on the T1/E1 Uplink card
• The DS3 interface on DS3 Uplink card
• The OC3-c/STM1 and OC12-c cards interfaces
• The BITS clock source on the MTAC/Ring card
• The system creates system-clock-profiles for each
  interface that can provide clocking for the
  system
• If there are multiple active interfaces
  configured as eligible clock sources, the system
  selects a clock source based on the weight
  configured in the system-clock-profile
• If a primary clock source is configured in the
  system profile this clock source overrides all
  other clocks

35
Configuring System Clocking

• Update the ds1-profile or sonet-profile or the
  ds3-profile to specify the type of clocking for
  the interface
• update ds1-profile shelf-slot-port-subport/ds1
• update sonet-profile shelf-slot-port-subport/sonet
  
• update ds3-profile shelf-slot-port-subport/ds3
• Update the system-clock-profile to specify
  whether the clock is eligible and to assign a
  weight
• update system-clock-profile shelf-slot-port-0/type
  (typeds1,ds3 or sonet)
• To specify a system clock in the system-profile
  (clock-sources specified in the system-profile
  override settings in the system-clock-profiles)
• update system 0

36
Clocking Parameters

• transmit-clock-source (ds1-profile, ds3-profile
  or sonet profile) - there are three clocking
  options for DS1/DS3 interfaces
• Values
• looptiming- The recovered receive clock from
  the line is used as the transmit clock
• localtiming- A local clock source is used on
  the DS1/DS3 transmit signal
• throughtiming - The transmit clock is derived
  from the recovered receive clock of another
  interface
• Default looptiming (DS3), throughtiming (DS1)

37
Clocking Parameters - continued

• primaryclocksource (in the system profile)
• The shelf-slot-port-subport/type of an interface
  to provide clocking for the system. For the BITS
  clock on the MTAC/Ring card, specify the address
  in the form shelf-slot-1-0/ds1
• system-clock-eligibility (in the
  system-clock-profile)
• Specifies whether the interface is eligible to
  provide clocking for the system. Values true
  false Default false
• system-clock-weight (in the system-clock-profile)
• Assigns a weight to the clock source. If you
  assign weight to a clock source that is higher
  than the currently active clock source, the
  system will switch over to that clock source.
• Values 1 to 10 1 is the lowest priority, 10 is
  the highest Default 5

38
Example Configuring a OC3/STM1 Clock Source

• Verify the clocking source interface is up and
  active
• Verify transmit-clock-source parameter in the
  sonet-profile is looptiming
• In the system-clock-profile enable the clock
  source set the system-clock-eligibility
  parameter to true
• zSHgt get sonet-profile 1-1-1-0/sonet
• medium-type -----------------gt sonet
• medium-line-coding ----------gt sonetmediumnrz
• medium-line-type ------------gt
  sonetshortsinglemode
• medium-circuit-identifier ---gt
• medium-loopback-config ------gt sonetnoloop
• path-current-width ----------gt sts3cstm1
• clock-external-recovery -----gt enabled
• clock-transmit-source -------gt looptiming
• medium-cell-scramble-config -gt true
• medium-line-scramble-config -gt true
• zSHgt update system-clock-profile 1-1-1-0/sonet
• system-clock-eligibility ---------------gt
  false true
• system-clock-weight ---------------gt 5

39
Revertive Clock Source

• Redundant clock sources are revertive by default
• If a standby clock source becomes active after
  the failure of a primary clock source the
  system will revert to the primary clock source
  after the clock source becomes active
• To disable revertive clock sources set the
  revertiveclocksource parameter in the system
  profile to false

40
Configuring a Clock Source in the System Profile

• Clock sources configured in the system profile
  override settings in clock-source-profiles.
• Typically, specifying a clock source in the
  system profile is not necessary, but can be use
  to manually change clock sources, or for testing
  purposes.

41
Configuring a Clock Source in the System Profile

• The following example specifies that the first T1
  interface on the Uplink card provides system
  clocking

42
Viewing Clock Sources

• Use the clkmgrshow command
• Syntax
• Clkmgrshow current eligible list
• current displays the current primary and
  secondary clock sources
• eligible displays only the eligible clock
  sources, these are interfaces that are active and
  configured as eligible
• list lists the eligible and non-eligible clock
  sources

43
Exercise Configuring System Clocking

• Configure a DS1 or MTAC/Ring clock source
• Verify that the interface is up and active with
  the showline command
• Set the transmit-clock-source parameter to
  looptiming with the update ds1-profile command
• Enable the clock source and change the default
  weight (if necessary) with the update
  system-clock-profile command
• Use the clkmgrshow command to ensure the clock is
  active

ATM Cell Structure

• Cell Switching
• Fixed size cells
• 5 byte header, 48 byte payload

8
60
Cell Switching

• Fixed size cells allow switching process to be
  optimized in hardware and introduce predictable
  delays in the network.
• ATM switches examine only the cell header.
• 5 byte header introduces approx. 10 overhead in
  every cell.
• Cells are identified and routed based on their
  VPI/VCI numbers.
• Cells can support voice, video and bursty
  traffic by interleaving different traffic types
  on the same physical link.

7
61
ATM Data

• The MALC communicates with subscriber integrated
  access devices (IADs) or DSL modems using ATM
  over the DSL interface
• Traffic is relayed to the uplink card which
  provides a high-speed interface to the ATM
  network
• The system supports cross connects between DSL
  interfaces and the Uplink card, and between two
  VCLs on the same Uplink card. Cross connects
  between two DSL interfaces are not supported.

62
ATM Adaptation Layers (AAL)

• AAL 1
• Supports connection-oriented services (CBR,
  voice, real-time video)
• AAL 2
• Supports connection-oriented services (VBR,
  voice, non-real-time video)
• AAL 3/4
• Supports connectionless and connection-oriented
  services not used in the U.S.
• AAL 5
• Used for data, high-speed internet, bursty,
  delay-tolerant traffic

63
Service Categories

• The MALC supports the following ATM service
  categories
• Constant Bit Rate (CBR)
• non-real-time Variable Bit Rate (nrt-VBR)
• real-time Variable Bit Rate (rt-VBR)
• Unspecified Bit Rate (UBR)

64
Service Category Description

• CBR Provides a fixed amount of bandwidth during
  the lifetime of the ATM connection. The CBR
  service category is intended to support real-time
  applications requiring tightly constrained delay
  variations, such as voice and video.
• nrt-VBR This category is intended for
  applications which have bursty traffic
  characteristics and do not have tight constraints
  on delay and delay variation.

65
Service Category Description

• rt-VBR This service is suitable for any
  application for which the end system can benefit
  from statistical multiplexing, by sending
  information at a variable rate. An example would
  be voice over ATM or video on demand
  applications.
• UBR This category represents a best effort
  attempt for traffic delivery. Examples of
  applications in this category are text, data and
  image applications. ADSL data traffic is
  typically UBR traffic.

66
Connection Admission Control (CAC)

• MALC Uplink cards support connection admission
  control (CAC) and provisioning of
  oversubscription factors on a per port basis. The
  CAC functions on the Uplink card will not accept
  new connections if they exceed the remaining
  bandwidth.
• By default, oversubscription is not enabled and
  the cac-divider is set to 1.
• For example, to oversubscribe bandwidth at a rate
  of 41, set cac-divider to 4 within the traffic
  descriptor.
• The bandwidth allocated to ATM traffic types and
  used by CAC is specified in the
  card-atm-configuration parameter within the
  update card-profile command for the Uplink cards.

67
ATM Validation

• The Zhone CLI performs the following validation
  on ATM Configurations
• Virtual Channel Links (VCLs) cannot be created
  using Virtual Channel Identifiers (VCIs) in the
  reserved range (0 to 31)
• VCLs configured in a cross connect cannot be
  deleted. To delete a VCL, first delete the cross
  connect.
• ATM traffic descriptor used in a VCL cannot be
  modified
• A VCL can only be used in one cross connect
• If a VCL/VPL is updated with a new traffic
  descriptor, the VCL/VPL must be admind down,
  then admind up to update the policing value.

68
Virtual Channel and Virtual Path Switching

• The MALC supports both VC and VP switching
• In VC switching, cells are switched based on the
  VPI/VCI in VP switching, cells are switched
  based on VPI only
• A Virtual Channel Link (VCL) is used for VC
  switching it is uniquely identified by an index
  in the form interface-index/VPI/VCI
• A Virtual Path Link (VPL) is used for VP
  switching it is uniquely identified buy an
  index in the form interface-index/atm/VPI

69
VPI and VCI ranges

• The MALC supports configurable VPI/VCI ranges for
  all ATM capable cards. VPI/VCI ranges are
  configured in atm-vpi records.
• Note the following about VPI/VCIs ranges
• Any VPI (0-255) and VCI (32-8,096) can be used
  for a VCL.
• After creating or modifying atm-vpi records, the
  card must be rebooted.
• A maximum of 256 VPIs can be created on a port.
• All MALC cards support 16,384 VC connections,
  except for the AAL5 cards, which support 32,768
  connections.

70
VPI and VCI ranges
71
Traffic Descriptor

• The traffic descriptor defines the
  characteristics of ATM traffic coming into the
  network and includes several negotiable traffic
  parameters peak cell rate (PCR), sustained cell
  rate (SCR), and maximum burst size (MBS), etc.
• These parameters define the average and peak
  bandwidth requirements
• In the device, traffic descriptors are configured
  in using an atm-traf-descr record
• A Traffic Descriptor in use cannot be modified

Configuring IMA Groups

• IMA involves inverse multiplexing and
  de-multiplexing of ATM cells in a cyclical
  fashion among physical links grouped to form a
  higher-bandwidth, virtual or logical link.
• The rate of the logical link is approximately the
  sum of the rate of physical links in the IMA
  Group.
• The IMA protocol is based on the inverse
  multiplexing of ATM cells over several physical
  links inter-connecting two nodes supporting the
  IMA protocol.
• IMA groups terminate at each end of the IMA
  virtual link.

79
Configuring IMA Groups Cont

• For redundant systems, configure the IMA
  interfaces on both the active and standby cards.
• The following MALC cards support IMA groups
• T1/E1 IMA Uplink
• T1/E1-ATM-32
• Before moving IMA links to another group, the
  system performs a CAC calculation to determine
  whether moving the links will violate ATM QoS
  settings. If so, the link will not be moved.
• If you do not want a link to belong to any IMA
  group, it is recommended that you admin down the
  interface in the if-translate profile.
• Uplink must be set to the correct profile (card
  line type, ie ds1-ima). Modify the card profile
  if necessary.

80
IMA provisioning steps

• update if-translate (/ds1 ports and /atmima
  group)

Bridging

• Bridging involves configuring the MALC to direct
  traffic based on Ethernet MAC addresses.
• The MALC supports the two types of bridges,
  tagged and untagged.
• Tagged or Virtual LANs (VLANs) bridging forwards
  traffic based on MAC addresses and allows the
  segregation of a single Ethernet network into
  multiple virtual network segments by mapping ATM
  VCLs to VLAN IDs.
• Untagged or transparent bridging forwards traffic
  based on MAC addresses but does not provide
  segregation of traffic. Traffic is broadcast over
  the Ethernet port and is either accepted or
  rejected based on the destination MAC address.

117
Bridging

• The MALC ports can support both IP termination or
  bridging on different virtual circuits. However,
  each virtual circuit must be configured for
  either IP terminati
