1.1 General Des cription
• Technical Specifications (on page 1-13)
Axerra Networks' AXN1 and AXN10 are flexible, compact, customer-located pseudo-wire
access devices designed to enable cost-effective voice and data integration over packet-based
access networks such as Metro Ethernet and IP.
The AXN1/10 enables mobile/wireless operators, cable MSOs, and service providers to open up
new and immediate revenue opportunities by offering profitable traditional services, such as
T1/E1 private line and PBX voice backhaul, as well as advanced Ethernet services to mediumand large-sized business customers over next-generation metro Ethernet or IP networks.
By offering the full range of services over a single, unified, packet-based infrastructure,
providers can cut costs, increase revenues and expand their market, while preserving business
customers' investments in existing equipment, thereby ensuring a non-disruptive migration path
to packet-based networks.
The AXN1 Pseudo-Wire Access Device is available with one or two T1/E1 ports, an optional
V.35 interface, as well as a 10/100 BaseT LAN Ethernet interface and a 10/100 BaseTx/Fx
network uplink.
The AXN10 Pseudo-Wire Access Device is available with 4-8 T1/E1 ports as well as a 10/100
BaseT LAN Ethernet interface and a 10/100 BaseTx/Fx network uplink.

Introduction
The AXN1 and AXN10 are based on Axerra's field-proven Multiservice over Packet (MSoP)
technology and are fully interoperable with the other members of the AXN product line:
AXN100, AXN800 and AXN1600, delivering the industry's most complete range of service
aggregation and interworking solutions.

• IETF PWE3-based pseudo-wire capabilities including Circuit Emulation Service (CES), FR,
HDLC, ATM, and Ethernet
• Industry-leading CES including enhanced jitter management and most robust and accurate
rate based clock recovery
• Extensive Ethernet capabilities such as port-based VLAN tagging and VLAN stacking
• Ethernet VLAN 802.1Q/P
• Seamless interoperability with all existing CPEs, including PABXs, FRADs, IADs,
switches, and routers
• Remote management capabilities through Axerra's CLI and AXNVision™ NMS
1.5 Timing Options
The system clock architecture that is implemented in the AXN1 and AXN10 supports three
optional timing sources to synchronize the transmit clock of the T1/E1 interfaces:
•CES-PW (rate based clock) – clock is recovered from received CES Pseudo-Wire packet
stream. When the system clock is configured to derive the clock from CES Pseudo-Wire
(CES-PW), it supports two types of clock recovery mechanisms: Adaptive Clock Recovery
(ACR) and High-Precision Clock Recovery (HPCR).
• ACR enables a Fractional Frequency Offset (FFoFF) of +/- 1 ppm between the source
and the recovered clock at the remote end-point. ACR is supported by all AXN1 and
AXN10 models.
AccessDevice AXN 1 10UGV2.9.82 1-3
Introduction
• HPCR is designed for applications with severe synchronization requirements such as
wireless/mobile 2G and 3G Base Transceiver Stations (BTSs). HPCR enables a
Fractional Frequency Offset (FFoFF) of +/-16-ppb (0.016 ppm) between the source and
the recovered clock at the remote end-point. HPCR is an optional feature, which can be
ordered with any AXN1/10 model, and can be supported by any AXN1/10
configuration.
•SYNC - PW – The timing source is based on patent-pending technology, in which the
system supports the recovery of the clock from the RTP/UDP/IP packet that was created
especially for carrying the time stamps of the clock.
• T1/E1 line – clock is derived from one of the Rx clocks available in the T1/E1 interface
• Internal clock – clock is derived from the system internal local oscillator with an accuracy
of +/- 32 ppm
Regardless of the timing mode, one source must be selected as the system global timing source.
In case of failure of the selected source, the AXN1/10 switches to the internal clock. The source
selection is software programmable.
Each T1/E1 interface can select its transmit clock from one of the following sources:
• Loopback – clock is derived from the interface Rx clock
• System – clock is derived from the selected system clock
1.6 Management Options
You can manage the AXN1/10 using any of the following methods:
•Command Line Interface (CLI) – You can manage the AXN1/10 via CLI using direct
access through a local craft terminal or remote access using a Telnet or Secure Shell (SSH)
connection:
•Local terminal – You can manage the AXN1/10 through a direct connection (RS-232)
using a local terminal (Craft terminal) or a terminal emulation utility such as
HyperTerminal. For more information, see Connecting the AXN1/10 to a Local
Terminal (on page 3-1).
•Telnet – You can manage the AXN1/10 via Telnet, using any PC on the same network.
The PC must be equipped with a NIC (Ethernet port) and a terminal emulation utility
(such as HyperTerminal). HyperTerminal is available on most PC's running Microsoft
Windows
page 4-2).
•SSH – You can manage the AXN1/10 via Secure Shell (SSH), using any PC on the same
network. The PC must be equipped with a NIC (Ethernet port) and an SSH client. For
more information on SSH management, see SSH Management (on page 4-2).
•SNMP – You can manage the AXN1/10 via SNMP from any management station on the
same network, using an SNMP management application such as HP OpenView. SNMP
management uses the SNMP protocol, which runs over UDP/IP. For more information
on SNMP management, see SNMP Management (on page 4-2).

Introduction
1.6.1 Inband Management for an E thernet Uplink
Telnet/SSH and SNMP management utilize inband management. This means that the
management communication takes place over the same physical line as the payload traffic but
usually over a dedicated layer-2 sub-interface, for example, Ethernet VLAN.
Figure 1-4: Inband Management for an Ethernet Uplink
1.6.2 Out Of Band Management for an E thernet Port
Telnet/SSH and SNMP management utilize out-of-band management. This means that the
management communication takes place over the same physical line as the payload traffic but
usually over a dedicated layer-2 sub-interface, for example, Ethernet VLAN.
