Configuration Flow
The networking configuration with ZXONM E300 has two typical flows
according to whether the NEs are online or offline.
Note:
Online status indicates that the NE configuration commands are sent at real-
time to the NCP board, and then are forwarded to the corresponding board by NCP
board.
Offline status indicates that the NE configuration commands are only saved in
the EMS database and are not sent to the NCP board, since the NE is offline.
Configuration Example
In this section, you will learn about the configuration of traditional SDH
services with a networking example for offline network elements.
Networking Configuration
Suppose there are six NEs: A, B, C, D, E and F. The network consisting of
them is illustrated in Figure 1.

TFE board of ZXMP S200 is responsible for managing the Ethernet function
of physical board SMB and the Ethernet plug-in boards. The physical board
SMB can process 8 Ethernet services which can be performed by 4x10/100
M transparent transmission Ethernet electrical ports on the SMB board and
another 4 Ethernet ports on SEC board, TFEX4 board or TFEX4B board.
Among these boards,
TFEx4 and TFEx4B are set in the slot of subrack (slot No. is 11 on EMS).
However, it is no necessary to configure the board on the EMS manually
because the EMS can set the “TFE INTERFACE” board in slot 11
automatically based on the version of software and hardware of TFE.
If ZXMP S200 is equipped with SEC, the version of software and hardware
of ZXMP S200 is set as 0330. Moreover, SEC board needs to be added on
the EMS. Detailed configuration information refers to SE Boards in Chapter
3.
Note:
If the software/hardware version of TFE is 0310, TFE board provides 4 VCG
(EOS) ports which are corresponding to the 4 user ports of SMB board.
If the software/hardware version is the other, TFE board provides 8 VCG (EOS)
ports, among which, the first 4 VCG (EOS) ports are corresponding to the 4 user
ports of SMB board. The last 4 VCG (EOS) ports are corrspongding to the 4 user
ports of TFEx4 board or TFEX4B board.

Tip: Another way to entern the Ethernet adapter manager dialog box and
the VCG Port Capacity Config dialog box:
In the Card Management dialog box of ZXMP S200, right-click the TFE board and
its shortcut menu will pop up. Click the corresponding menu items in the shortcut
menu of TFE board.
The user ports of SFE series boards are 10/100 M Ethernet interfaces, and
those of SGE series boards are 1000 M Ethernet optical interfaces. Except
the SFE board of ZXMP S330, “B” in the board ID indicates that the user
ports are optical; otherwise, the user ports are electrical.
The user ports of SFE board in ZXMP S330 and ZXMP S325 support both
10/100 M Ethernet optical interfaces and 10/100 M Ethernet electrical
interfaces. In EMS, these two kinds of Ethernet interfaces are identified by
the software and hardware version, where “0310” represents for SFE
electrical interface board, and “1310” represents for SFE optical interface
board.
The system ports of SFE/SGE series boards adopt the TU12 virtual
concatenation. Each system port has the minimum granularity of 2 M and
the maximum granularity of 100 M.
[Steps]
Caution: When installing SFE board for ZXMP S330/ZXMP S325, the
software/hardware version cannot be modified in the Card property dialog box
unless the Presetting has been selected. Therefore, make sure to check the
Presetting check box. The SFE electrical interface board with version 0310 is
installed by default.

Configuring SE Boards
[Introduction]
TABLE 40 SE BOARDS
Note:
The processing board of SECx48/SECx24 and the interface board of
ESFEx8/OIS1x8 work together to implement the SEC board of ZXMP S385. The
processing board in inserted in the service functional board area of subrack, while
the interface board is inserted in the service functional interface board area of
subrack.
The board name in EMS refers to the board button name of SEC board in the
Card Management dialog box. The version refers to the software/hardware
version selected in the Card Property dialog box when adding the SEC board.
For ZXMP S200, SEC board transparently transmits/receives the services
to/from the 5-8 VCG (EOS) ports of TFE board via the internal Ethernet ports of
SEC board to achieve layer 2 switch.

The configuration flowchart of user ports is shown in Figure 46, and
that of system ports is shown in Figure 47. The parameters and
configuration principles are listed in Table 42. For ZXMP S200, it is
necessary to enable and configure user ports and internal Ethernet
ports.
Note: 1-4 internal Ethernet ports of SE board are corresponding to 5-8 VCG
(EOS) ports of TFE board, therefore, the 1-4 internal Ethernet ports and 5-8 VCG
(EOS) ports should be configured. The configurations of VCG (EOS) ports refer to
Configuring TFE Board. The configurations of 1-4 internal Ethernet ports of SE
board are consistent with those of TFE board. The operations of internal Ethernet
ports are similar with those of VCG (EOS) ports.
For ZXMP S200, SE board does not provide VCG (EOS) configuration.

End
5. Configure services
i. Select a node and the menu item Device Config -> Ethernet
Management -> RPR Ethernet Service Attribute, to set the
attribute of RPR service for the VLAN classified in step 3 in the pop-
up dialog box.
The RPR traffic is classified into three types depending on the QoS:
type A, B, and C, with priorities of A>B>C.
¾ Type A
Auxiliary parameters: Max BW and Reserved BW, where BW
refers to bandwidth.
The traffic of type A shares the reserved bandwidth in RPR ring.
Even in case of idleness, this bandwidth cannot be occupied by
traffic of other types. If type A traffic exceeds the upper limit of the
bandwidth, all of them will be discarded. It is not controlled by the
fairness algorithm, and has invariable rates. The delay and jitter
effect on them is the smallest.
It is applicable to analog Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) traffic.
¾ Type B
Auxiliary parameters: Max BW and Min BW, where BW refers to
bandwidth.
Type B traffic is classified into B-type CIR traffic and B-type EIR
traffic.
The B-type CIR traffic occupies guaranteed bandwidth and are not
controlled by the fairness algorithm. When the bandwidth is idle, it
can be occupied by other traffic.
The B-type EIR traffic occupies bandwidth between the limited
bandwidth and the guaranteed bandwidth, which can be shared
with other nodes, and it is controlled by the fairness algorithm.
It is applicable to traffic which is insensitive to delay but requires
bandwidth guarantee. For example, some data traffic with high
requirement can occupy more bandwidth when there is idle
bandwidth.
¾ Type C
Auxiliary parameters: Max BW, where BW refers to bandwidth.
The traffic of type C is processed in an attempt, which has no
bandwidth guarantee and is controlled by the fairness algorithm.
When the traffic exceeds the bandwidth limit, it will be discarded
completely. It has a large delay and jitter.
It is applicable to data services with lower requirements.
Note: One VLAN can only have one traffic type, and different VLANs can
have identical traffic type.
ii. Select a node in the RPR ring and the menu item Device Config ->
SDH Management -> Service Config.
Note:
The VC4 paths occupied by two RPR SPAN ports should respectively connect
with two optical line boards.
If the rate of RPR ring network is 622 Mbit/s, i.e. the rate of path group at RPR
SPAN port is 622 Mbit/s, the AU4 path of the abutting optical line board should be
configured with AU4-4C real concatenation.
Note: If the rate of path group at RPR SPAN port is 622 Mbit/s, the AU4
paths of the passed-by optical line boards should be configured with AU4-4C real
concatenation.
Generally, the user port accesses Ethernet traffic directly, and the VCG
(EOS) port serves for connection with the system port of smart Ethernet
series boards (SFE/SGE). After L2 layer switching, the traffic pass through
the RPR system port to enter the RPR ring network.
The RSEB-RPR board provides RPR port, VCG (RPR SPAN) port, user port,
and VCG (EOS) port. The configuration procedure is described below:
Note:
The types and quantities of VCG (EOS) ports and of user ports are determined
by the board type.
In the EMS, the last two user ports of RSEB-RPR board are 1000 M optical
interfaces, and the others are 10/100 M electrical interfaces.
Note:
The VCG at the VCG (EOS) port adopts the VC12 virtual concatenation, and the
maximum total bandwidth is determined by the equipment type. Generally, the
LCAS function is enabled.
The VCG at the VCG (RPR SPAN) port adopts the VC3 or VC4 virtual
concatenation, and the maximum total bandwidth is determined by the equipment
type. The bandwidths of two VCG (RPR SPAN) ports must be identical. Generally,
the LCAS function is disabled.
VCG (RPR SPAN) ports and VCG (EOS) ports share the bandwidth at the
system side.
Generally, the default package type of GFP and the default delay time of 0 ms are
adopted.
Note:
The VLAN configuration is mandatory, which involves user ports, VCG (EOS)
ports, and RPR ports. Among which, the VLAN ID of a user port or VCG (EOS) port
must be consistent with the port’s Pvid set in the Ethernet adaptor manager dialog
box.
The STP configuration is optional.
Note: When steering protection occurs in the RPR ring network, manual
selection is disabled automatically to avoid traffic interruption.
Note: With the static MAC address adopted, RPR traffic can only be
transmitted among the designated MAC addresses in the RPR ring network without
RPR exchange. It is usually applicable to the point-to-point traffic.
9. Configure services
i. Select the NE and click the menu item Device Config -> SDH
Management -> Service Config.
ii. In the Service Config dialog box, use the timeslot cross-connect
configuration method to establish connections between the RSEB-
RPR board and the optical line board, or between the RSEB-RPR
board and the SFE/SGE/SE board.
Note:
VCG (RPR SPAN) port 1 of a RSEB board must be connected to VCG (RPR SPAN)
port 2 of another RSEB board, and vice versa.
The VCG (RPR SPAN) ports must be connected correctly. Otherwise, the traffic
shall be blocked and the alarm of fiber connection error will be raised.
The VCG (EOS) port of RSEB board is usually connected with the system port
of SFE/SGE/SE board.
Tip: The Ethernet adapter manager and the VCG port capacity config
dialog box can also be entered by clicking the corresponding menu items extended
in the Device Config -> Ethernet Management menu.
It provides VCG (EOS) port and user port. The configuration procedure is
described below.
Note: The types and quantities of VCG (EOS) ports and of user ports are
determined by the board type.
Note:
The VCG at the VCG (EOS) port adopts the VC12 virtual concatenation, and the
maximum total bandwidth is determined by the equipment type. Generally, the
LCAS function is enabled.
Generally, the default package type of GFP and the default delay time of 0 ms
are adopted.
Note:
The VLAN configuration is mandatory.
The STP configuration is optional.
7. Configure services
i. In the client operation window, select the NE to be configured and

MSE board divides into MSEA and MSEB. MSEA supports Ethernet
Virtual Private LAN (EVPLAN) but MSEB does not support EVPLAN. In
EMS, select software/hardware version to differentiate MSE and FE
interface types whose configurations are similar.
User port can be configured as user Ethernet port or MPLS Ethernet
port via EMS. User Ethernet port of this board, which is same with
those of other boards, is used to access Ethernet service; MPLS
Ethernet port is used to access Ethernet service carrying with MPLS
label.
VCG port can be configured as VCG (EOS) port or VCG (GFP MPLS)
port. VCG (EOS) port, which is same with those of other boards, is
used to connect with SDH side; VCG (GFP MPLS) port is used to
connect with the Ethernet service carrying with MPLS label. The service
path is VCG path, and the message format is GFP+MPLS label+ Normal
Ethernet Message.
MPLS Ethernet processing board accesses or converges the distributed
service to the trunk network or backbone network, then classifies the
service by flow, identifies the object address, controls the speed,
schedules and shapes the service. Following, transports the service by
Ethernet port or by the SONET/SDH ports after encapsulated via
GFP/HDLC/X.86 protocol.
MSEA board supports EVPLAN, Ethernet Private Line (EPL) and Ethernet
Virtual Private Line (EVPL). MSEB board supports EPL and EVPL.
Hereinafter, MSE represents MSEA and MSEB.

3. Establish PVC
Right-click the ATM card in the Card Management dialog box, and
select the Pvc Config menu item in the shortcut menu to pop up the
configuration dialog box.
i. Configure flows
In the PVC configuration dialog box, select query mode and click
the Flow Config button to configure flows in the Flow Argument
Setting dialog box. Input the flow type name, and select the
service type and parameters of flows.
¾ Service type
CBR: Constant Bit Rate, for the service with a constant bit rate.
rtVBR: real-time Variable Bit Rate, for the transmission of real-
time traffic.
nrtVBR: non-real-time Variable Bit Rate. Similar to rtVBR but the
real-time feature is poorer than rtVBR.
UBR: Unspecified Bit Rate. The difference between UBR and VBR is
that VBR reserves some bandwidth for adjustment, while UBR finds
idle bandwidth by itself. If UBR finds idle bandwidth, it will occupy it.
If not, it cannot adjust the bit rate.
ABR: Available Bit Rate
¾ Major parameters
PCR: Peak Cell Rate, with the unit of cell/second.
1 cell/second = 53 × 8 bit/s.
SCR: Sustainable Cell Rate, with the unit of cell/second.
1 cell/second = 53 × 8 bit/s.
MBS: Maximum Burst Size, with the unit of cell.
1 cell = 53 × 8 bit.
Configure PCR, SCR or MBS, or all of them according to the service
type.
ii. Configure the terminal point
In the PVC configuration dialog box, click the TTP Config button to
enter the TTP Config dialog box. Create TTP and select the PVC
type, VPI&VCI, flow type and direction for the terminal point in the
TTP Creation dialog box after clicking the New button.
Note: Only in case of OAM test, should the section point, VP connection end
point, OAM end-to-end monitoring, and AIS insertion point in the TTP type area be
set.
Note: For the connnection of VCI=4, the user type should be OAM. Except
that, the other connections should be Normal.
Checkpoint: Before saving ATM data, make sure the NE processing ATM
traffic is online and in normal communication with the EMS.
Select the menu item Data Save in the shortcut menu of ATM card to
save the ATM configuration data to the FLASH file of the card.
Tip: To implement the PVC connection and saving configuration data, you can
also perform the following steps:
Select the NE in the client operation window, and then select Device Config -
> ATM Management to pop up the ATM Management dialog box.
In this dialog box, select the menu item Configure -> Pvc Config to
configure the PVC connection, Select Board Data Manage -> Data Save to dump
the configuration data.
Configuration Example
Suppose there are two network elements, M and N, between which ATM
services should be configured. ZXMP S360 equipment is adopted for NE M
and N. The link rate is 2.5 Gbit/s. The type of ATM services between these
two NEs is CBR without protection, and the rate is 2 Mbit/s.
In this networking example, the ATM card AP1S4 is used to access the
ATM service.
The ATM service is converged to the optical card and transmitted over a
long distance, as shown in Figure 75.
The parameter requirements to access the ATM service are listed in Table
68.
Parameter Value
Enabled user port: Port 1
Enabled port
Enabled system port: Port 6
Service type Constant Bit Rate (CBR)
Peak Cell Rate (PCR) About 5000 cell/second (1 cell/second = 53 × 8 bit/s)
Connection type VCC
VPI 10
Parameter Value
VCI 100
To simplify the operation, the same VPI and VCI are adopted for the port 1 and

The Automatic Protection Switching (APS) byte serves for transmitting the
MSP switching information. Only when the APS byte is transmitted
correctly, can the multiplex section protection switching work normally.
The value of APS byte can range from 0 to 3, and the default value is 0.
The ZXONM E300 supports the setting of APS byte in the unit of port, thus
guaranteeing normal working of each MSP group.
The APS byte of two ports physically connected in the same MS ring
must be the same, to guarantee correct transmission of APS byte
between two nodes.
If one port belongs to different MSP groups, the APS byte of each MSP
group must be unique.
ZXMP S320 and ZXMP S360 do not support the setting of APS byte,
and their default APS byte is 0. Therefore, the APS byte must be set to
zero for the optical ports connected with the ZXMP S320 or ZXMP S360
equipment.
[Applicable NEs]
The applicable NEs are ZXMP S380, ZXMP S390, ZXMP S330, ZXMP S325,

DCC.
¾ For ET1 board for ZXMP S200, set whether the 2 M tributary port 5-
port 8 support ECC mode or not. The ECC mode includes Not
Supported, Optical ECC and Electrical ECC, among which, the
electrical ECC means transferring the ECC information by 2 M cable
directly, the optical ECC means transferring the ECC information by
multiplexing the 2 M tributary signal with ECC information into the
timeslot of optical line board (i.e. sending the ECC information by
optical line board).
5. Click the Apply button to save the DCC configuration.
Note:
For the board to be used as REG board, the ECC mode must be DCCr.
If the data is transferred by DCC path, the DCC of docking ports must be set in

Parameter Meaning
In the case that the APS protocol is working properly, the MP
APS start protection ring is working in APS state.
When the MSP group is configured, the APS should be started.
The APS protocol stops working and keeps the data before stopping.
For instance, if MSP switching happens at a site, the original MSP
APS stop
switching operation will be kept after the APS stops, and the new
data will not be processed.
The APS data is cleared completely and the NE data is initialized.
APS reset After reset, the working status of system recovers. The system waits
for new data, and performs automatic protection switching.
[Applicable NEs]
[Steps]
Note: The APS operation is only applicable to the MSP ring and the APS
command set on each NE in a protection group must be identical.
After the APS is reset successfully, the APS ID should be restarted.
