Fourteen slots accommodate service interface and VT/TU 5G Switch cards, and two slots are dedicated to general control module cards (control cards). The Traverse 1600 shelf is configured by populating the system with control cards, SIMs, and VT/TU 5G Switch cards. Card guide rails are built into the shelf to allow for easy insertion of the cards into connectors mounted on the backplane.

Slot Numbers. There are 16 slots in each Traverse 1600 shelf:

• Slots 15 and 16 are reserved for general control module cards (control cards)

• Slots 1 through 12 slots are for any service interface or VT/TU 5G Switch card

• Slots 1 through 14 slots are for any optical service interface or VT/TU 5G Switch card

MPX Connectors

The Traverse shelf uses MPX optical fiber connectors to provide high-density and easy-operation fiber connection for SONET/SDH and Gigabit Ethernet (SX and LX) optical interface cards. The MPX connector design specifically supports high fiber density applications in accordance with Bellcore GR-1435-CORE generic requirements for multi-fiber connectors. Each slot has receptacles for up to two MPX ribbon fiber connectors. Each connector supports from 1 to 12 fiber pairs, for a maximum fiber count of 48 per slot.

Page 14

Timing Interface

The backplane provides primary and secondary T1/E1 and CC2M (Composite Clock—64 kHz and 2 MHz) input and output timing interfaces, and primary and secondary BITS input timing interfaces. These timing interfaces are routed to both control cards, which distribute system timing references to all cards.

System and Environmental Alarms Interface

Support is provided for the full set of system alarm outputs, sixteen environmental alarm inputs, a fail-safe alarm, and a remote alarm cut-off. The environmental telemetry inputs and outputs are supported by the optional Environmental Alarm Card located on the main backplane, which provides additional system-management functions to accommodate customer-defined alarm input/output requirements. The card is field replaceable and can be replaced without disconnecting the alarm wiring.

Modem Interface

The RS-232C modem interface uses a vertical 8-pin RJ-45 connector that is configured as a data terminal equipment (DTE) port for connection to an external modem, supporting dial-up remote access to the active control card. Dial-up access can also be achieved by installing a terminal server on the DCN and communicating via Telnet to any other Traverse node on the network. A local VT -100 terminal (or a PC with VT-100 terminal emulation software) can also be connected to the RS-232C connector (Backplane interface).

Ethernet Connection to Data Communications Network

The Traverse system has a 10/100BaseT Ethernet interface that can be used to connect a Traverse node to the TransNav system (or to another EMS) and to other remote management devices. The RJ-45 signal connections are bridged to both the primary and secondary control cards. This enables the TransNav management system to always talk to the active control card, even after a protection switching.

In-band Management

A network of Traverse nodes can be managed over the service provider’s data communications network (DCN) as long as at least one Traverse node is directly connected to that network through the Traverse DCN Ethernet interface. Traverse nodes that have no direct connection to a DCN can communicate with the EMS indirectly, through any Traverse node that is connected to the DCN.

Out-of-band Management

A Traverse node that is not directly connected to a DCN is able to learn a route to Traverse nodes on the DCN without any explicit local provisioning of routing information, as long as it is connected via the Force10 Control Plane to one or more gateway Traverse nodes. Service providers must use static IP routes to enable devices on the DCN to reach both gateway and non-gateway Traverse nodes.

Page 15

Quality of Service

Traverse IP quality of service (IP QoS) provides filters and priority queueing with statistics for all the traffic going over the Traverse DCC network. Priority is given to traffic originating from the Traverse network and the TransNav server. An access control list (ACL) manages IP hosts and networks for IP forwarding action to allow or block traffic. Classifiers and queues prioritize and manage the IP forwarding based on high priority or best effort.

Proxy ARP Management

The Traverse supports proxy address resolution protocol (ARP) on the Ethernet DCN interface. Proxy ARP is the technique in which one host, usually a router, answers ARP requests intended for another machine. By faking its identity, the router accepts responsibility for routing packets to the real destination. Using proxy ARP in a network helps machines on one subnet reach remote subnets without configuring routing or a default gateway.

Power Terminals

The Traverse receives redundant -48 VDC feeds from the PDAP (PDAP-4S, PDAP-15A, or legacy PDAP-4S) or third-party power distribution unit and distributes these to each slot. Each slot has access to both A and B -48 VDC power feeds.

Electrical Connector Cards for Electrical Interfaces

The electrical connector cards (ECMs) enable copper and coax network interface cabling using industry-standard cables and connectors.

For more information on ECMs, see the Traverse Cabling and Cabling Specifications Guide, Chapter 2—“ECM Interface Specifications.”

Chapter 4 Fan Assemblies

Introduction

Traverse Fan Assemblies

The Traverse fan assemblies cool the control card and service cards in the shelf. The fan assembly draws in cooling air and pushes the air through the perforated shelf.

This chapter includes the following topics:

• Traverse Fan Assemblies

• Fan Assembly Specifications

Each Traverse shelf requires one fan assembly that includes the following basic features:

• Multiple fans in each fan assembly

• Circuitry for event and alarm reporting to the general control module cards (control card)

• Generates cool air flow to cards even if one of the multiple fans fail to operate

• Receives redundant power from the Traverse system

The system increases fan speed when temperature levels are detected that exceed the factory-set threshold. If an individual control card or service card exceeds 59 ºC, the control card raises an alarm (TEMPWARN) in the user interface (GUI) and increases the speed of the fans.

Also, if any one of the multiple fans in a fan assembly fails to operate, the following actions occur:

• The LED on the front of the fan assembly turns red

• The System increases the speed of the other fans

• The control card raises an alarm in the GUI

Traverse fan assembly differences are as follows:

• Traverse 2000 and Traverse 1600 Front Inlet Fan Assemblies

• Traverse 600 Fan Assembly

and Traverse 1600 Front Inlet Fan Assemblies

One fan assembly installs in the rack directly below each Traverse shelf. The Traverse 1600 and Traverse 2000 front inlet fan assembly (fan tray with integrated

air ramp and fan card) cools the GCM and service cards in the shelf. The Traverse 1600 fan assembly has five fans. The Traverse 2000 fan assembly has six fans. The fans draw in cooling air from the front and push the air upward through the perforated shelf. The air ramp above the shelf directs the heated air out through the rear of the shelf. Each front inlet fan assembly can force up to 200 cubic feet per minute of cooling air.

Use one fan assembly per Traverse shelf. The Traverse 1600 system fan assembly is mountable in either 19-inch (483 mm) or 23-inch (584 mm) wide racks. The Traverse 2000 system fan assembly fits into 23-inch (584 mm) racks.

The front inlet fan assembly not only receives redundant power from the Traverse system as a standard feature, but also provides additional controller functionality for maximum redundancy with:

• Redundant fuses for each Traverse power input (-48VA and -48VB)

• Redundant inrush control circuitry to protect against power surge on startup

• Three redundant sub-circuits, each capable of supplying power for up to two fans. Each sub-circuit has additional fuses designed to blow before the main fuses blow, thereby ensuring that a failure in any one circuit does not affect the other two.

Traverse 600 Fan Assembly

One fan assembly is integrated within each Traverse 600 shelf. The Traverse 600 fan assembly (fan card with integral shelf fan tray) cools the GCM

and service cards in the shelf. The Traverse 600 fan assembly has six fans and can force up to 200 cubic feet per minute of cooling air. The fans draw in cooling air and push the air through the perforated shelf.

The Traverse 600 fan assembly not only receives redundant power from the Traverse system as a standard feature, but also provides additional controller functionality for maximum redundancy with:

• redundant fuses for each Traverse power input (-48VA and -48VB).

• redundant inrush control circuitry to protect against power surge on startup.

• three redundant sub-circuits, each capable of supplying power for up to two fans.

Each sub-circuit has additional fuses designed to blow before the main fuses blow, thereby ensuring that a failure in any one circuit does not affect the other two.

Chapter 6 General Control Module (GCM) Cards

Introduction

The General Control Module (GCM) card controls and manages all Traverse cards and services, and the fan tray. This chapter contains the following topics:

• GCM Card Description

• GCM Card Types

• Card Specifications Note: The information in this chapter applies to the GCM part of these cards only. For optical interface specifications, see Chapter 10—“SONET/SDH Cards.” For VT/TU switching specifications, see Chapter 12—“VT/VC Switching Cards,”

VTX/VCX Integrated Cards.

Traverse Hardware Guide, Release TR4.0.x 1

Page 32

GCM Card Description

The GCM controls and manages all Traverse shelf cards and services, and the fan tray. The GCM can operate by itself or with a second GCM for redundancy.

Redundant GCMs provide the following key functions:

• System initialization

• Non-stop operations

• Persistent database

• System timing

• External timing interfaces

• Alarm relay interfaces, including environmental alarm inputs and outputs.

• Craft, management, and control interfaces

• Redundant control plane and management plane (including provisioning, alarm reporting, maintenance, and diagnostics)

Each GCM comes with 128 MB Flash and 256 MB of Synchronized Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM). On-board Flash memory provides primary storage for system software images. It holds two software images and two configuration databases. System firmware, software, configuration, connection, and service databases can be downloaded into the GCM’s Flash memory for software upgrades, system preconfiguration, connection, and service preprovisioning. The GCM’s on-board SDRAM provides run-time storage for system firmware, software, configuration, connection, routing, forwarding, and service databases.

A single GCM failure will not affect systems operations and services. The fault-tol erant operating system supports non-service-affecting system software upgrade and rollback.

GCM with Integrated Optics

The GCM with integrated optics provides overall control and management functions for the Traverse platform as well as incorporating a single or dual OC-12/STM-4 or a single OC-48/STM-16 interface for optical trunk connectivity. This card significantly increases the configuration flexibility of the Traverse shelf by effectively freeing up slots for revenue-generating service interface cards.

The GCM with optics offers a true carrier-grade design supporting 1:1 redundancy for system control and optional 1+1 APS/MSP, and UPSR/SNCP. The GCM with OC-48/STM-16 card also supports BLSR/MS-SP Rings.

For optical interface information, see Chapter 10—“SONET/SDH Cards.”

GCM with Integrated VT/VC Switching

A VT/TU switching function is available using an integrated VTX/ VCX component on the GCM card. For VT/TU switching information, see Chapter 12—“VT/VC Switching Cards,” VTX/VCX Integrated Cards.

Physical Access to the Traverse

GCM’s have an RS-232 interface (DB-9) for local technician access and Command Line Interface (CLI) support using a character-oriented terminal, such as a VT-100 terminal or a PC with terminal emulation software.

The serial port on the front

2 Traverse Hardware Guide, Release TR4.0.x

Page 33

faceplate of the GCM also supports hardware/firmware diagnostics and configuration (IP address, card, and interface).

The GCM’s also have an Ethernet interface (RJ-45) with auto-sensing capability located on the front faceplate, typically for temporary connection of a technician’s PC laptop. One 10/100 Ethernet port is located on the front of the GCM for local technician access. There is also a DCN 10/100 Ethernet port located on the backplane. It is bridged to the active and standby GCM’s.

The GCM Ethernet interface is generally used for a temporary connection, but it can be left in place to connect multiple devices to the LAN. When there are two operational GCM cards in a Traverse node, each GCM’s Ethernet interface is active and usable for technician access, regardless of that GCM’s active or standby status. The GCM Ethernet interface on either the active or standby GCM can be used for CLI access as long as the IP routing is set up correctly.

For more information on the management interface specifications, see the Traverse Cabling and Cabling Specifications Guide, Chapter 8—“Management Interface Specifications.” For instructions on setting IP addresses during initial commissioning, see the Traverse Hardware Installation and Commissioning Guide, Chapter 13—“Traverse Node Start-up and Commissioning.”

Timing Subsystem

Each GCM has a timing subsystem, which has a Stratum 3 clock, primary and secondary T1/E1, and CC2M (Composite Clock—64KHz or 2MHz) synchronization input and output2 interfaces. The Stratum 3 clock recovers timing from the primary or secondary T1/E1 timing references, or any line interface, then generates and distributes SONET/SDH-compliant clock and frame synchronization pulses to all other cards over a dedicated timing network on the Traverse backplane. The clock supports free-run, locked, and holdover modes of operation.

Redundant GCM’s provide 1:1 equipment protection for the timing system. The Traverse system can distribute timing from any OC or STM interface to the timing

output ports on the rear of the shelf. The timing output ports can be set to DS1 SF, ESF, E1 Unframed, Basic Frame, Multi-Frame, or 2.048 MHz.

The Traverse system supports synchronization-status messages (SSM) to provide automatic re-configuration of line-timed rings, improve reliability of interoffice timing distribution, avoid the creation of timing loops, and troubleshoot synchronization-related problems.

For more information on the Timing interface specifications, see the Traverse Cabling and Cabling Specifications Guide, Chapter 7—“Timing Interface Specifications.”

Alarm Interface

Each GCM has a system alarm interface, allowing it to send visual and audible system alarms to system alarm wire-wrapped pins on the back of the Traverse shelf. The alarm outputs are bridged between the GCM slots to provide redundancy for each alarm indication. It can relay critical, major, and minor visual alarms to the PDAP-2S or

PDAP-4S, visual and audible alarms to third-party fuse and alarm panels, or the gateway Traverse node.

The GCM can also send and receive additional programmable environmental alarms. An Environmental Alarm Module (EAM), located on the back of the shelf, provides additional environmental alarm input and output

capability. The Enhanced GCM, along with the EAM, supports 16 configurable environmental alarm inputs and 8 environmental alarm outputs.

An Alarm Cut-Off (ACO) button is located on the front of the GCM to silence the alarm buzzer and to reset timers for system maintenance alerts. When the ACO button is pressed, its LED is turned to amber; the alarm relay is opened (disabled), but the alarm condition still exists, and the alarm LED is maintained. A following alarm will switch off both the ACO button and its LED, close (enable) the appropriate alarm relay , and switch on the matching LED.

For more information on the alarm interface specifications, see the Traverse Cabling and Cabling Specifications Guide, Chapter 6—“Alarm Interface Specifications.”

Configurable environmental alarm output is not available.

Chapter 7 Next-Generation Ethernet Cards

Introduction

NGE / NGE Plus Card Description

Force10 Networks offers several versions of its single-slot next-generation Ethernet (NGE) service interface cards with optical and electrical Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and electrical Fast Ethernet (FE) ports.

This chapter includes the following topics:

• NGE / NGE Plus Card Description

• NGE/NGE Plus Card Types

• NGE / NGE Plus Card Specifications

• NGE Gigabit Ethernet Ports

• GbE CWDM Wavelengths

• NGE Fast Ethernet Ports For optical interface cabling specifications, see the Traverse Cabling and Cabling

Specifications Guide, Chapter 1—“Fiber Optic Interface Cabling Specifications.” For electrical interface cabling specifications, see the Traverse Cabling and Cabling

Specifications Guide, Chapter 5—“Ethernet (Electrical) Interface Cabling Specifications.”

For a summary of all optical (Ethernet and SONET/SDH) interface specifications, see the Operations and Maintenance Guide, Chapter 19—“Traverse Transmit and Receive Signal Levels,” Traverse Optical Interface Specifications.

NGE cards (NGE and NGE Plus) are feature-rich, full function IEEE

802.3/802.1D/802.1Q Ethernet switch cards. These cards allow the Traverse system to support Ethernet access, aggregation, and transport services over SDH and SONET networks, as well as offer end-user Ethernet services, such as Ethernet virtual private line, Ethernet private line, aggregation bridge (point-to-multipoint / E-Tree), and Ethernet bridge (E-LAN). Additionally, these Ethernet cards offer advanced traffic management, Ethernet switching, and high and low order virtual concatenation (HO/LO VCAT), 1:1 Ethernet electrical equipment protection on both the electrical and optical interfaces, and Carrier Ethernet Protection Pair (CEPP) when using the NGE Plus cards.

The NGE and NGE Plus cards have been certified as Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) compliant for all services (E-Line/E-LAN) to the MEF 9 technical specification.

Traverse Hardware Guide, Release TR4.0.x 1

Page 40

Virtual Concatenation

NGE cards support HO/LO VCAT and provide up to a maximum of 64 Ethernet over SDH or SONET (EOS) trunks. It allows optical bandwidth to be tuned to the smallest increments in SONET and SDH with the ability to provide bandwidth on demand, enabling maximum bandwidth efficiency. Using VCAT, NGE cards map Ethernet frames directly into a payload of N-separate non-contiguous transport paths, rather than using the fixed contiguous concatenated transport channels.

Carrier Ethernet Protection

A CEPP is a logical pairing of two NGE Plus cards operating as one Ethernet switch to aggregate the traffic from twice the number of physical ports (40 physical Ethernet ports) as that of a single card. While a CEPP can use all of the physical Ethernet ports of two cards, it uses the 64 EOS ports only of the working card for transport. CEPPs support Link Aggregation Groups (LAGs) with ports on both cards in the CEPP. See Link Aggregation with CEPP.

NGE Plus cards in a CEPP protection group cannot simultaneously be in a 1:1 equipment protection group; these protection groups are mutually exclusive. NGE Plus cards not in a CEPP function as an NGE card.

Force10 recommends adjacent card configuration, although the cards can be non-adjacent. T o create CEPP protection groups, see the T ransNav Management System Provisioning Guide, Chapter 15—“Overview of Protection Groups.”

Link Aggregation with CEPP

CEPP supports Link Aggregation based on the IEEE 802.3ad standard. A Link Aggregation Group (LAG) with CEPP can contain up to eight port members of the same type (FE or GbE) from two separate NGE Plus cards. Service providers create a LAG on the working card of the CEPP and include member ports from either of the cards in the CEPP.

Virtual Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (V-R STP)

On the Traverse system, up to 20 virtual copies of RSTP (V-RSTP) can be run on the same Ethernet card. For more information on V-RSTP, see the TransNav Management System Provisioning Guide, Chapter 48—“Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol,” Virtual RSTP.

NGE Gigabit Ethernet Ports

NGE and NGE Plus cards with GbE ports are based on IEEE 802.3 Ethernet transmission standards and operate in full line rate. These cards integrate a full IEEE

802.1D Layer 2 switch and Ethernet over SONET/SDH (EOS) mapper. They can aggregate and transport Ethernet frames in a SONET/SDH contiguous concatenation (CCAT) or virtual concatenation (VCAT) payload. The GbE-based cards operate in full-duplex mode and perform Layer 2 classification, Ethernet MAC and VLAN aggregation and switching, and per-port (per UNI/NNI) and per-flow traffic management (per Ethernet UNI/NNI, per EVC and per CoS bandwidth profiles). GbE physical connections are either short-range (SX) optics interface, long-range (LX) optics interface with CWDM options, or twisted-pair electrical (TX) interface.

GbE TX ports have auto-negotiation enabled and support automatic MDI (Medium Dependent Interface) and MDI crossover (MDIX) determination. They can be connected to either a straight-through cable or a cross-over cable. Auto-MDIX will automatically detect and correct wiring problems such as MDIX, swapped pairs, and reverse polarity so the user does not need to worry about having the correct Category 5 Ethernet cable type.

NGE Fast Ethernet Ports

The NGE and NGE Plus cards with fast Ethernet (10/100BaseTX) ports are based on IEEE 802.3 Ethernet transmission standards and operate in full line rate. These cards integrate a full IEEE 802.1D Layer 2 switch and Ethernet over SONET/SDH (EOS) mapper. They can aggregate and transport Ethernet frames in a SONET/SDH contiguous concatenation (CCAT) or virtual concatenation (VCAT) payload. The FE-based cards operate in full-duplex (or half-duplex) mode and perform Layer 2 classification, Ethernet MAC and VLAN aggregation and switching, and per-port (per UNI/NNI) and per-flow traffic management (per Ethernet UNI/NNI, per EVC, and per CoS bandwidth profiles).

Each 10/100BaseTX port provides auto-negotiation and supports automatic MDI (Medium Dependent Interface) and MDI-X determination. They can be connected to either a straight-through cable or a cross-over cable. Auto-MDIX will automatically detect and correct wiring problems such as MDI crossover, swapped pairs, and reverse polarity so the user does not need to worry about having the correct Category-5 Ethernet cable type.

Chapter 8 Gigabit Ethernet-only Cards (Dual-slot)

Introduction

Force10 Networks offers a variety of dual-slot Gigabit Ethernet-only (GbE) service interface cards to support higher bandwidth and port density Ethernet applications and services: bandwidth-intensive Ethernet Private Lines (EPL), Multipoint Layer 2 V irtual Private Networks (VPNs), Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), and other IP-centric video applications.

Dual-slot GbE cards with GbE ports are based on IEEE 802.3 Ethernet transmission standards and operate in full line rate. These cards integrate a full IEEE 802.1D Layer 2 switch and Ethernet over SONET/SDH (EOS) mapper. They can aggregate and transport Ethernet frames in a SONET/SDH contiguous concatenation (CCAT) or virtual concatenation (VCAT) payload. The GbE-based cards operate in full-duplex mode and perform Layer 2 classification, Ethernet MAC and VLAN aggregation and switching, and per-port (per UNI/NNI) and per-flow traffic management (per Ethernet UNI/NNI, per Ethernet virtual circuit (EVC) and per class of service (CoS) bandwidth profiles).

The 1-port 10GbE card provides an integral 802.3ae-compliant XFP (10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable) interface that can be ordered with LR, ER, or ZR optics. The 10-port GbE (GbE-10) card provides up to ten 802.3z-compliant optical or electrical GbE ports of customer-installable Small Form Factor Pluggable optics (SFPs) using an SFP connector card (SCM). The SFPs can be in any mix of pluggable SFP-based 1000Base-SX, -LX, or -ZX optical or 1000Base-TX electrical interfaces.

This chapter includes the following topics:

• 1-Port 10GbE Card

• 10-Port GbE Card

1-Port 10GbE Card

The 1-port 10GbE (10GbE) card supports high capacity Ethernet switching and provides a comprehensive set of features to enable the Traverse platform to support evolution to an end-to-end Carrier Ethernet transport Ethernet infrastructure. The 10GbE is ideal for 10GbE Metropolitan/Wide Area Network (MAN/WAN) core and inter-carrier handoff applications.

Each card integrates 20 Gbps of non-blocking Layer 2 (L2)s Ethernet switching into the Traverse shelf. Advanced IEEE 802.ad Provider Bridging capabilities include support for 802.1Q Customer Virtual Local Area Networks (C-VLANs) and Service VLANs (S-VLANs) (Q-in-Q) with granular traffic policing and shaping to support differentiated service classes and guaranteed service level agreements (SLAs).

The 10GbE card supports the Metro Ethernet Forum’s (MEF’s) Ethernet Private Line (EPL), Ethernet Virtual Private Line (EVPL), E-LAN (Ethernet multipoint-tomultipoint), and E-Tree (point-to-multipoint) service definitions. Additionally, these Ethernet cards offer advanced traffic management, Ethernet switching (including VLAN, High Order Virtual Concatenation (HO VCAT) and Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme (LCAS), and 1:1 Ethernet optical equipment protection.

Use the dual-slot, hot-swappable 10GbE card in any combination of the available interface slots of the Traverse 2000 or Traverse 1600 shelves. Physical access to the optical interface is through an MPX connector with singlemode fiber on the back of the shelf.

Virtual Concatenation

The 1-port 10GbE card supports HO VCAT and provides up to a maximum of 128 Ethernet over SDH or SONET (EOS) network to network interfaces (NNIs) (i.e., trunks). It allows optical bandwidth to be tuned to the smallest increments in SONET and SDH with the ability to provide bandwidth on demand, enabling maximum bandwidth efficiency. Using VCAT, 10GbE cards map Ethernet frames directly into a payload of N-separate non-contiguous transport paths (where N=192), rather than using the fixed contiguous concatenated transport channels.

Virtual Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (V-R STP)

On the Traverse system, up to 20 virtual copies of RSTP (V-RSTP) can be run on the same Ethernet card. Each copy, called a Virtual RSTP Bridge (VRB), uses an exclusive set of EOS ports that terminate on the card. For more information, see the TransNav Management System Provisioning Guide, Chapter 48—“Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol,” Virtual RSTP.

Of the 4096 possible VLAN values, values 1 through 4093 are valid VLAN IDs. The value 0 identifies priority frames

meaning the packet contains priority information, but no VLAN ID. Values 4094 and 4095 are reserved for system use.

On 10GbE or GbE-10 cards, the system distinguishes between incoming and outgoing tags. These cards recognize only a

single VLAN Ethertype on any port. If the corresponding port Ethertype parameter is disabled, then incoming tags must have 0x8100 Ethertype. If the corresponding port Ethertype parameter is enabled, then outgoing tags must match the setting of the card parameter.

Of the 4096 possible VLAN values, values 1 through 4093 are valid VLAN IDs. The value 0 identifies priority

frames meaning the packet contains priority information, but no VLAN ID. Values 4094 and 4095 are reserved for system use.

On 10GbE or GbE-10 cards, the system distinguishes between incoming and outgoing tags. These cards

recognize only a single VLAN Ethertype on any port. If the corresponding port Ethertype parameter is disabled, then incoming tags must have 0x8100 Ethertype. If the corresponding port Ethertype parameter is enabled, then outgoing tags must match the setting of the card parameter.

GbE-10 Gigabit Ethernet Ports

GbE-10 cards with GbE ports are based on IEEE 802.3 Ethernet transmission standards and operate in full line rate. These cards integrate a full IEEE 802.1D Layer 2 switch and Ethernet over SONET/SDH (EOS) mapper. They can aggregate and transport Ethernet frames in a SONET/SDH contiguous concatenation (CCAT) or virtual concatenation (VCAT) payload. The GbE-based cards operate in full-duplex mode and perform Layer 2 classification, Ethernet MAC and VLAN aggregation and switching, and per-port (per UNI/NNI) and per-flow traffic management (per Ethernet UNI/NNI, per EVC and per CoS bandwidth profiles). GbE-10 physical interfaces are either short-range (SX), long-range (LX), (ZX), or twisted-pair electrical (TX) optical connections.

GbE-10 card GbE TX ports have auto-negotiation “forced” with speed set to 10 Gbps and duplex set to FULL DUPLEX. Manual Pause, Advertise 1000M Full Duplex, and Advertised P AUSE RX are provisionable. Through the Manual Pause paramete r , Forced Pause Receive is provisionable and Forced Pause Transmit is disabled. Advertised PAUSE TX is disabled.

Important: Force10 recommends that if the peer device is 802.3 compliant, the operator leave the Auto-negotiation feature Enabled.

Chapter 9 Ethernet Over PDH Cards

Introduction

Force10 Networks offers several versions of its single-slot Ethernet over PDH (Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy) service interface cards with optical and electrical Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and electrical Fast Ethernet (FE) ports.

The EoPDH Service Interface Modules (SIMs) for the Traverse® multiservice switching and transport platform position Force10 with the industry’s leading solution for multiservice transport with Ethernet service delivery over fiber and copper PDH access networks. The Traverse platform supports any combination of Ethernet, SONET/SDH, or TDM circuit grooming, switching and transport in a single shelf. This versatility enables network operators to leverage their existing infrastructure as they transition to a multiservice, Carrier Ethernet network at their desired pace.

This chapter includes the following topics:

• EoPDH Card

• Gigabit Ethernet Ports on EoPDH Cards

• EoPDH Fast Ethernet Ports For optical interface cabling specifications, see the Traverse Cabling and Cabling

Specifications Guide, Chapter 1—“Fiber Optic Interface Cabling Specifications.” For electrical interface cabling specifications, see the Traverse Hardware Guide,

Chapter 8—“Gigabit Ethernet-only Cards (Dual-slot).” For a summary of all optical (Ethernet and SONET/SDH) interface specifications, see

EoPDH Card

EoPDH cards, equivalent to the NGE Plus cards in most ways and more, are feature-rich, full function IEEE 802.3/802.1D/802.1Q Ethernet switch cards. These cards allow the Traverse system to support Ethernet access, aggregation, and transport services over SDH and SONET networks, as well as offer end-user Ethernet services such as Ethernet virtual private line, Ethernet private line, aggregation bridge (point-to-multipoint / E-Tree), and Ethernet bridge (E-LAN). Additionally, these Ethernet cards offer advanced traffic management, Ethernet switching, and high and low order virtual concatenation (HO/LO VCAT), 1:1 Ethernet electrical equipment protection on both the electrical and optical interfaces, and Carrier Ethernet Protection Pair (CEPP).

This card supports all of the same applications as the NGE Plus card -- Ethernet services involving GbE, FE, and EOS ports with optional CEPP protection. In addition, this card supports Ethernet access using EoPDH technology in which an Ethernet signal is carried in GFP-encapsulated frames over a virtually concatenated group of DS1 / E1 / DS3 / E3 circuits. Ethernet over PDH is similar to Ethernet over SONET / SDH, just with a different physical layer transport.

The EoPDH cards also are ITU conformant to carry GFP-encapsulated Ethernet frames over EoPDH trunks consisting of virtually concatenated PDH circuits.

EoPDH cards bring Ethernet frames to a Traverse node for switching and forwarding on a transport network. EoPDH is an access technology; the transport technology is Ethernet over SONET/SDH.

EoPDH Fast Ethernet Ports

The EoPDH cards with fast Ethernet (10/100BaseTX) ports are based on IEEE 802.3 Ethernet transmission standards and operate in full line rate. These cards integrate a full IEEE 802.1D Layer 2 switch and Ethernet over SONET/SDH (EOS) mapper. They can aggregate and transport Ethernet frames in a SONET/SDH contiguous concatenation (CCAT) or virtual concatenation (VCAT) payload.

Each 10/100BaseTX port provides auto-negotiation and supports automatic MDI (Medium Dependent Interface) and MDI-X determination. They can be connected to either a straight-through cable or a cross-over cable. Auto-MDIX will automatically detect and correct wiring problems, such as MDI crossover, swapped pairs, and reverse polarity so the user does not need to worry about having the correct Category-5 Ethernet cable type.

OC-3/STM-1 Cards

The OC-3/STM-1 card for the Traverse platform integrates the capabilities of a high-performance SONET/SDH ADM and a non-blocking cross connect in a single card. Compatible across all of the Traverse platforms, this high-performance card has four or eight OC-3/STM-1 ports that can be used as trunk interfaces, as well as for the aggregation and grooming of SONET/SDH services.

Use the single-slot, hot-swappable OC-3/STM-1 card in any of the available optical interface slots of the Traverse 2000, Traverse 1600, or Traverse 600 shelves. Physical access to the optical interface is through an MPX connector on the back of the shelf. Configure each card to process SDH or SONET modes through the user interface. Use only a single port to provide line timing to the node.

OC-12/STM-4 Cards

The 4-port OC-12/STM-4 card for the Traverse platform integrates the capabilities of a high-performance SONET/SDH ADM and a non-blocking cross-connect in a single card. Compatible across all of the Traverse platforms, this high-performance card has four OC-12/STM-4 ports that can be used as trunk interfaces, as well as for the aggregation and grooming of SONET/SDH services.

Use the single-slot, hot-swappable OC-12/STM-4 card in any of the available optical interface slots of the Traverse 2000, Traverse 1600, or Traverse 600 shelves. Physical access to the optical interface is through an MPX connector on the back of the shelf. Configure each card to process SDH or SONET modes through the user interface. Use only a single port to provide line timing to the node.

GCM with Integrated OC-12/STM-4 and VT/VC Switching

In addition to the single-slot OC-12/STM-4 card, the Traverse system supports optic and VT/VC switching integrated general control cards (GCMs). The GCM with integrated optics and VT/VC switching provides overall control and management functions for the Traverse platform, as well as incorporating a 1- or 2-port optic interface for optical trunk connectivity. For GCM information, see Chapter 6—“General Control Module (GCM) Cards.”.

OC-192/STM-6 4 Cards

The single-port, dual-slot OC-192/STM-64 (FEC programmable) card integrates the capabilities of a high-performance SONET/SDH ADM and a non-blocking cross connect in a single card. Supported on the Traverse 2000 and Traverse 1600 platforms, this high-performance card provides a single OC-192/STM-64 port that can be used as a 10 Gbps trunk interface, as well as for the aggregation and grooming of SONET/SDH services.

Physical access to the optical interface is through an MPX connector on the back of the shelf. Configure each card to process SDH or SONET modes through the user interface.

28-Port DS1 Card

The 28-port DS1 card delivers high-density wideband access to the Traverse platform. The DS1 card maps ingress DS1 line signals into VT-1.5 or DS3 structured STSs, which are switched/cross-connected to an egress card. Use an optional VT/TU 5G Switch card or VTX/VCX integrated card to use transport bandwidth efficiently.

Use the single-slot, hot-swappable DS1 card in any of the available electrical interface slots of the Traverse 2000, Traverse 1600, or Traverse 600 shelves. Physical interfaces are 64-pin Telco connectors on the back of the shelf.

12-Port DS3/E3/EC-1 Clear Channel Card

The 12-port DS3/E3/EC-1 clear channel (CC) card delivers high-density broadband access to the Traverse platform. The card provides asynchronous mapping of ingress DS3, EC-1, or E3 line signals into a SONET or SDH signal, which are cross-connected to an egress card. From here they are either transmitted to an output line interface of the same type, or multiplexed into a higher rate signal for transmission. Independently configure the card for clear channel DS3 or E3 through the user interface. Configure a DS3 port for DS3 or EC1 through the user interface.

Use the single-slot, hot-swappable card in any of the available electrical interface slots of the Traverse 2000, Traverse 1600, or Traverse 600 shelves. Physical I/O interfaces are on the back of the shelf.

24-Port DS3/E3/EC-1 Clear Channel Card

The 24-port DS3/E3/EC-1 clear channel card delivers high-density broadband access to the Traverse platform. The card provides asynchronous mapping of ingress DS3, EC-1, or E3 line signals into a SONET or SDH signal, which are cross-connected to an egress card. Here they are either transmitted to an output line interface of the same type, or multiplexed into a higher rate signal for transmission. Independently configure the card for clear channel DS3 or E3 through the user interface. Configure a DS3 port for DS3 or EC1 through the user interface.

Use the single-slot, hot-swappable card in any electrical interface slot of the Traverse 2000, Traverse 1600, or Traverse 600 shelves. Physical I/O interfaces are on the back of the shelf.

12-Port DS3/EC-1 Transmux Card

The 12-port DS3/EC-1 Transmux card provides DS3 transmultiplexing (transmux) functions for channelized DS3 access to the Traverse platform. An ideal solution for bridging legacy TDM networks with an expanding fiber infrastructure, the Transmux card converts T1s to VT1.5s, allowing them to be transported across an optical link, creating greater bandwidth efficiencies.

Use this card with the VT/TU 5G Switch card to switch individual channels (subports). These channels can contain either DS1 or E1 signals.

Additionally, use this card to support the optical transmux feature which transforms incoming channelized DS3 signals to VC- or VT-mapped payloads on one node. This card supports either 12 electrical and 12 optical transmux ports or 24 optical transmux ports, where the optical ports are set to STS1-TMX mode. Use this feature together with the VTX/VCX component or the VT/TU 5G Switch card to switch these payloads on the same node.

Use the single-slot, 12-port Transmux card in any electrical interface slot of the Traverse 2000, Traverse 1600, or Traverse 600 shelves. In addition to the transmux (DS3-TMX) and optical transmux (STS1-TMX) functionality, any port can be independently configured for DS3 clear channel or EC-1 through the user interface.
