Page 14
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 multiplexer’s operating parameters from a local
management session.
AT-S47 Management Software User’s 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
multiplexer’s 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 multiplexer’s 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 multiplexer’s 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.

Return to System Configuration Menu ...
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.
ParameterDescription
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.

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.
28
Page 29
Naming the Multiplexer
This procedure assigns a name to the multiplexer. The name is displayed
in all management software windows. Names can make it easier for you
to identify the different multiplexers in your network when you
configure and manage them. The default name is WDM1008.
To name the system, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, select System configuration.
2. From the System Configuration Menu, select System name and press
the Enter key.
❑ To set a new name for the system, enter a unique name of up to
20 characters.
❑ To delete the system name without entering a new name, enter a
space character.
3. Return to the Main Menu.

Trap parameters menu
Return to System Configuration 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.
3. Enter or change the parameters in the window as desired.

Section II: Menu Interface
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.
The Administration Menu in Figure 9 is displayed.

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.

characters in length.
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
ParameterDescription
Taken together, these two port shutdown selections
give you complete control over a GBIC port’s 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.

Link Test
This chapter contains the following procedures:
❑ Overview on page 56
❑ Enabling or Disabling Link Test on page 58
55
Page 56
Section II: Menu Interface
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.
56
❑ Verify that the cables between the multiplexing ports cross. The
WEST (OPT A) port must be connected to the EAST (OPT B) port,
and the EAST (OPT B) port connected to the WEST (OPT A) port. Do
not connect two WEST (OPT A) ports or two EAST (OPT B) ports
together.
Page 57
AT-S47 Management Software User’s Guide
❑ Try cleaning the fiber connector.
❑ Use a fiber optic test to verify that attenuation is less than 25 dB.

the selected multiplexing port.
Note
The LNK TST LED on the front of the chassis is not activated by this
command.
Note
A Link Test must be stopped in the same manner in which it was
started. If you started the test using the AT-S47 interface, either the
menus or command line, then you must stop it using the AT-S47
interface. If you started the test using the Link Test button on the
chassis, then you should use the button to end it.
Refer to the previous section, Overview on page 56, for
information on how to view the results of the test and what to do

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.

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.

Page 68
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 unit’s 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.
The interface access methods are described in the table below:

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 multiplexer’s 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 User’s 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 multiplexer’s 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.

ENABLE BOOTP
AT-S47 Management Software User’s 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
