Chapter 1
Getting Started
The AT-S47 Management Software and the management interface simplify the task of monitoring and managing your Allied Telesyn AT-WD1008 Wavelength Division Multiplexer. The interface, which comes pre-installed on the AT-WDM02 Management Module along with the AT-S47 software, enables you to manage the multiplexer through easy-to-use menus or with command line interface (CLI) commands.
To actively manage a multiplexer, such as to change or adjust the operating parameters, you must access the AT-S47 Management Software on the AT-WDM02 Management Module. There are three different ways to access the management software on an AT-WD1008 multiplexer. This guide refers to the access methods as management sessions. The three types of management sessions are:
Local Management Session
Telnet Management Session
SNMP Management Session
The following sections in this chapter briefly describe each type of management session and how to start a management session.
14
Page 15
Local Management Session
You establish a local management session with an AT-WD1008 multiplexer using the RS-232 port on the AT-WDM02 Management Module.
Once the session is started, you will see a menu from which you can make selections to configure and monitor the multiplexer. You can configure all of the multiplexers operating parameters from a local management session.
AT-S47 Management Software Users Guide
Starting a Local
Management
Session
To start a local management session with the multiplexer, perform the following procedure:
1. Connect a terminal or a personal computer with a terminal emulator program to the RS-232 port on the AT-WDM02 Management Module, using the management cable included with the AT-WDM02 Management Module.
2. Configure the terminal or terminal emulator program as follows:
Terminal mode: VT100-compatible / ANSI
Baud rate: 9600
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None
Note
The default settings are for a DEC VT100 or ANSI terminal, or an equivalent terminal emulation program. Once you have started a management session, you can adjust the speed and duplex mode of the RS-232 port. For instructions, refer to Configuring the RS-232 Port on page 35.

Note
The management software supports only one management session at a time. Consequently, It is important to always quit a management session when are finished managing a multiplexer. Otherwise, you might block future management sessions or software downloads. You can configure a timeout value so that the management module automatically disconnects a management session after a period of inactivity. For instructions on how to configure a timeout value, refer to Specifying a Timeout Value on page 68.

Section I: Getting Started
Telnet Management Session
Any management workstation on your network that has the Telnet application protocol can be used to manage an AT-WD1008 multiplexer. In this guide, a Telnet management session is referred to as a remote management session because you can manage the multiplexer from any workstation on your network that has the application protocol. You do not have to be physically near the multiplexer.
A Telnet management session gives you complete access to all of a multiplexers operating parameters. You can perform the same functions in a Telnet management session as you can in a local management session. The only exceptions are initially assigning the multiplexers IP address and downloading new software using XModem.
Starting a Telnet
Management
Session
Starting a Telnet management session involves specifying the IP address of the multiplexer with a Telnet utility. If you have just installed the multiplexer, you must initially assign the unit an IP address from a local management session.
After you have specified the multiplexers IP address, you are prompted for a password, if one has been assigned to the AT-S47 management software. The default is no password. The Main Menu in Figure 2 on page 16 is then displayed. For instructions on using the Telnet utility, refer to the documentation included with the utility.
As an example, the following steps show you how to start a Telnet session from Microsoft Windows:
1. From the Start Menu on your MS Windows, select Run as illustrated in Figure 3.

5. Enter the IP address of the multiplexer you wish to connect to and press the Enter key.
Once the IP address information is validated and confirmed, the connection to the multiplexer is activated.
6. If a password has been assigned to the management software, enter the password. The default is no password.
The AT-S47 Main Menu is displayed in Figure 2 on page 16.

SNMP Management Session
Another way to remotely manage an AT-WD1008 multiplexer is with an SNMP application program, such as HP Openview. A familiarity with Management Information Base (MIB) objects is necessary to manage a multiplexer with an SNMP management program.
To manage a multiplexer with an SNMP application program, you must download the Allied Telesyn multiplexer MIB file from the Allied Telesyn web site and compile the file with your SNMP program. For instructions, refer to your SNMP management documentation.

Figure 7 IP Parameters Menu
3. Enter or change the parameters in the window as desired. Changes to the parameters take effect immediately on the multiplexer. The parameters are defined below.
Parameter Description
IP Address
Specifies an IP address for the multiplexer. The AT­WD1008 Multiplexer does not need an IP address, subnet mask, or default gateway address for normal network operations. However, if you wish to use the Telnet utility or an SNMP application program to manage the multiplexer remotely, you must assign the multiplexer an IP address and subnet mask. You cannot manage the multiplexer remotely without assigning values for these parameters.
Furthermore, if the management station is separated from the multiplexer by a router, you must also provide a gateway address, which is the IP address of a router through which the multiplexer can communicate with the remote management station. Once values have been assigned, you can remotely manage the multiplexer from any network management station that has the Telnet utility.
Subnet Mask
Specifies the subnet mask for the multiplexer. This value is required to manage the multiplexer remotely.
27
Page 28
Section II: Menu Interface
Parameter Description
Gateway Address
Manager address (1 - 4)
Download Password
SNMP Community strings
Location
Specifies the IP address of the default router. This address is required to manage the multiplexer remotely if the remote network management station is separated from the multiplexer by a router.
Specifies up to four IP addresses of network management stations that will receive SNMP traps from the multiplexer. The addresses are optional.
The management software uses the loader password to prevent you from downloading an inappropriate file onto the AT-WDM02 Management Module. This password is used only for TFTP downloads of the AT-S47 Management Software. You must specify the download password as the destination file in the TFTP command. The default password is “ats47”. For information on downloading software using TFTP, refer to Using TFTP to Upgrade the Management Software on page 75
.
Specifies the Get, Set, and Trap community strings.
Specifies the physical location of the multiplexer (for example, First Floor, Lab.)
Contact
Specifies the contact information such as name, phone number, and other information to help identify the person responsible for managing the multiplexer.
Disable BOOTP
Disables the BOOTP protocol on the multiplexer. This is the default setting.
Enable BOOTP
Enables the BOOTP protocol on the multiplexer. NOTE: If you activate BOOTP, you must reset the
management module in order for the module to start issuing the BOOTP requests. The multiplexer does not support Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
The multiplexer issues up to three requests for its IP configuration from the BOOTP server. If the BOOTP server does not respond, the management module uses the manually assigned IP address, if one was manually assigned.
4. After you have adjusted the parameters, return to the Main Menu.

Figure 8 Trap Parameters Menu
The numbers following each trap relate to the list of IP addresses of the management stations in the IP Parameters Menu shown in Figure 7 on page 27.
The number “1” following a trap represents Manager Address 1 in the IP Parameters Menu; number “2” represents “Manager Address 2, and so forth. You use this numbering to control which management workstations receive which traps. For example, if you wanted only the management workstation with the IP address specified in Manager Address 2 to receive the Link Test trap, you would change the Link Test item in the Trap Parameters Menu so that it had only the number “2”. The default is for all management workstations to receive all traps.
If you do not want a particular trap sent to any management workstations, enter a 0 (zero) for the trap.

Pinging a Remote System
The procedure in this section tests whether a valid link exists between the multiplexer and another network device. This can be useful in situations where a communication problem exists between the two devices. The multiplexer sends an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo request to the end node. If the node is operating and receives the request, it sends a reply to the multiplexer.
To instruct the multiplexer to ping a remote system, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, select Administration.

Displaying RLL Error Statistics
The Statistics Menu displays Run-length-limit (RLL) Errors. An RLL error is a violation in the 8B/10B coding rules in which there are more than five consecutive zeros in the data stream.
Run-length-limit (RLL) Error (TX) occurs in the transmitting path
when data is transmitted from a local system.
Run-length-limit (RLL) Error (RX) occurs in the receiving path
when data is transmitted from a remote system.
Note
The RLL Error statistics counters start to run when there is real traffic on the GBIC ports. The maximum number for an RLL Error statistics counter is 4,294,967,295. Once a counter reaches the maximum, it starts over again at 1.
Note
Normally, when there is a good communication between the channels, no RLL errors should occur.

Lists the ports handled by the WEST (OPT A) or the EAST (OPT B) multiplexing port.
CH 1 to CH 4 are displayed when the WEST (OPT A) multiplexing port is selected.
CH 5 to CH8 are displayed when the EAST (OPT B) multiplexing port is selected.
Selecting one of the channels displays a menu with the following two items:
Port Active
Port Shutdown
These two selections control whether a GBIC port can send the traffic it receives from its end node to the multiplexing port. If you select Port Active, which is the default, the GBIC port is allowed to send its traffic through the multiplexing port. If you select Port Shutdown, then the GBIC port cannot send traffic through the multiplexing port. This means that any traffic that the GBIC port receives from the end node connected to the port is not forwarded to the multiplexing port and, consequently, will not reach the remote multiplexer and remote end node.
It is important to note that this selection is different from the Port Shutdown selection explained in the section GBIC Module Parameter Settings on page
48. That Port Shutdown function controls the flow of data in the opposite direction. It disables the laser on a GBIC module so that it cannot forward traffic to its local end node. However, it does not stop a GBIC module from receiving traffic from its local end node and forwarding the traffic to the multiplexing port and, ultimately, to the remote multiplexer and remote end node.
Another way to look at this is to consider the two directions of data flow that occur through the GBIC port. One data flow is from the end node, to the GBIC module, and then to the multiplexing port. This flow is controlled with this shutdown option. The other data flow is in the opposite direction: from the multiplexing port, to the GBIC module, and to the end node. That flow direction is controlled with the other shutdown selection described in GBIC Module Parameter Settings on page 48.
51
Page 52
Section II: Menu Interface
Parameter Description
Taken together, these two port shutdown selections give you complete control over a GBIC ports ability to send traffic, both to its end node and to the multiplexing port. If you want to shutdown a GBIC port completely so that it will not send traffic in either direction, you must use both shutdown selections.

Overview
The Link Test feature is a fast and easy way for you to test the link integrity between local and remote multiplexing ports. The test is usually performed during pre-installation, while there is no real traffic on the ports.
Below are guidelines to observe when performing a Link Test:
You can test the multiplexing ports on an AT-WD1008
independently of each other.
Both the corresponding local and remote multiplexing ports must
be in the Link Test mode for the test to work properly. For instance, to perform a Link Test on a local WEST (OPT A) multiplexing port, you must set the remote EAST (OPT B) multiplexing port also in Link Test mode.
The test sends a test pattern over the fiber strand. It checks the
integrity of the strand, not the multiplexing capability of the ports.
The WEST (OPT A) multiplexing port, when in Link Test mode, will
not forward traffic from the GBIC module in the CH1 slot. The GBIC modules in CH2 to CH4 are not affected by a Link Test.
The EAST (OPT B) multiplexing port, when in Link Test mode, will
not forward traffic from the GBIC module in the CH5 slot. The GBIC modules in CH6 to CH8 are not affected by a Link Test.
To view the results of a Link Test, you can check the TX and RX LEDs on the multiplexing ports. They should be solid green.
You can also view the Module Status Menu. A multiplexing port that has successfully established a link with its corresponding remote port will be showing Online in the Tx/Status and Rx columns.
If the multiplexing ports are unable to establish a link, try resolving the problem by doing the following:
Verify that both multiplexers are powered ON.
Verify that the multiplexing ports on both multiplexers are in Link
Test mode.
Check that the fiber optic cable is securely connected to the
multiplexing ports.

Section II: Menu Interface
Overview
The Missing Link feature of the AT-WD1008 unit enables the multiplexers to pass the “Link” status of their connections to each other. If a multiplexer detects a problem with one of the ports, such as the loss of connection on a GBIC module, the multiplexer passes the change in link status to the other multiplexer which shuts down the connection to the corresponding port, thus notifying the end-node connected to the port that the connection has been lost.
For instance, if there is the loss of connection on the GBIC module in CH1 on the local multiplexer, the remote multiplexer drops the link on the GBIC module in CH5, as shown in the illustration below.

AT-S47 Management Software Users Guide
If a loss of connection occurs between two multiplexing ports, the links are dropped on the corresponding GBIC modules on the multiplexers. For instance, if there is a loss of connection on the WEST (OPT A) multiplexing port of a local multiplexer, the links are dropped on the GBIC modules installed in CH1 to CH4 on the local multiplexer and also on the GBIC modules installed in CH5 to CH8 on the remote multiplexer, as shown in the illustration below.

The value of this type of network monitoring and fault notification is that some hubs and switches can be configured to take a specific action in the event of the loss of connection on a port. In some cases, the unit can be configured to seek a redundant path to the disconnected node and send out a trap to a network management station, and so alert the network administrator of the problem.

Section II: Menu Interface
Specifying a
Timeout Value
Specifying a timeout value is a way to prevent unauthorized individuals from using the interface in the event you forget to exit the interface and leave your management station unattended. By specifying a timeout value, the program will end the session if it detects that there has been no management activity after the timeout value has expired. The default for the timeout value is 5 minutes.
To enter a new timeout value, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, choose System configuration.
2. From the System Configuration Menu, select Omega Options.
The Omega Options Menu in Figure 27 on page 67 is displayed
3. From the Omega Options window, select the Timeout field and enter a value from 0 (zero) to 65,535 (minutes). Press the Enter key.
Entering a value of 0 means there is no timeout. The interface will not end any session. A session is ended only if you end the session yourself. If you enter 0, you must always properly quit after a management session in order not to block subsequent sessions and software downloads to the multiplexer.
Enabling or
Disabling the
Access Methods
The new timeout value is immediately activated on the multiplexer.
4. Return to the Main Menu.
As explained in Chapter 1, you can access the interface two ways either locally through the RS-232 port or remotely using the Telnet application protocol. You can disable either of the methods to enhance the security of the multiplexer by preventing unauthorized individuals from making changes to the units configuration settings.
To enable or disable an access method, perform the following steps:
1. From the Main Menu, choose System configuration.
2. From the System Configuration Menu, select Omega Options.
3. From the Omega Options window, adjust the settings as required.

Using XModem to Upgrade the Management Software
The AT-S47 Management Software interface supports software upgrades to the management module using XModem. It is assumed that you have the required setup to support this type of file transfer. This upgrade procedure can only be performed from a local management session because the XModem transfer occurs through the multiplexer’s RS-232 management port.
Note
To download an AT-S47 image file using the RS-232 management port, select the “ats47_v1_0_tport.bin” file from the zip file posted on the ATI web site.
Before you begin the upgrade, please note the following:
This procedure assumes that you have already obtained the new
software image from our web site or FTP server and have stored the image on the PC from which you will be performing the procedure.
Downloading new software does not interrupt the flow of traffic
through the multiplexer.
The transfer protocol must be XModem or 1K XModem.
The download password does not apply to upgrading the
management software through the RS-232 port.
Downloading a new version of the management software does
not change the current settings on the management module.
To upgrade the multiplexers management software with XModem, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, select Administration.
2. From the Administration Menu, select XModem software update to the WDM02.

AT-S47 Management Software Users Guide
Using TFTP to Upgrade the Management Software
If your network is using the TCP/IP protocol, you can use a workstation on the network and TFTP software to download a copy of the current software to the multiplexer. The multiplexer contains the TFTP server portion of the TFTP protocol. The workstation must contain the TFTP client portion of the protocol.
TFTP software is available from various sources and is included in SNMP, which can be purchased through Allied Telesyn. A command line version is included in most UNIX variants and in Windows NT. Please consult the documentation or the manufacturer of the software for instructions on how to use the software.
Note
To download an AT-S47 image file using TFTP, select the ats47_v1_0_tftp.bin file from the zip file posted on the ATI web site.
Regardless of the manufacturer, all TFTP client software will need the following information:
-i
Host
Put
Source file
Destination file
This indicates that the download file will be a binary image transfer.
This is the IP address of the multiplexer to which you are downloading software.
The Put command downloads a new software image file to the multiplexer.
The path and filename of the software image to be downloaded.
This specifies the multiplexers Loader Password. The default password is “ats47”.
Example
The following command assumes that the IP address of the multiplexer is 149.11.22.12. The new AT-S47 Management Software is stored in the root directory of drive C on the management workstation. The Loader Password is ats47.
tftp -i 149.11.22.12 put c:\ats47_v1_0_tftp.bin ats47

ENABLE BOOTP
AT-S47 Management Software Users Guide
Syntax
enable bootp
Parameters
None.
Description
This command activates BOOTP on the management module. When BOOTP is activated, the management module obtains its IP configuration from a BOOTP server on your network, whenever the unit is power cycled or reset. The protocol makes up to three requests for its IP configuration from the BOOTP server. If the BOOTP server does not respond, the management module uses the manually assigned IP address, if an IP address was manually assigned.
The default setting for BOOTP is disabled. To view the current status of BOOTP, refer to the SHOW SYSTEM command.
Note
If you activate BOOTP, you must reset the management module in order for the module to start issuing the BOOTP requests.
Note
The multiplexer does not support Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
Example
The following command activates BOOTP on the multiplexer:
enable bootp
