DEFINITY ECS Release 8.2 ATM Installation, Upgrades, and Administration

About This Book

555-233-124

Overview

The DEFINITY ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) combines portions of the DEFINITY platform with an ATM switch platform that meets specific criteria. DEFINITY ATM offers both intraswitch and interswitch ATM solutions. The intraswitch solution is called the AT M port network connectivity , or ATM-PNC, and the interswitch solution is called ATM circuit emulation service, or ATM-CES. ATM-PNC is only available on the R6.3r or later platform.

ATM-PNC provides an alternative to either the direct connect or center stage switch configurations for connecting the processor port network (PPN) to one or more expansion port networks (EPNs). ATM-PNC is available with four DEFINITY

ECS reliability options—standard, high, ATM network duplication, and critical. Customers must choose whether they want direct connect, CSS, or ATM-PNC. It is not possible to mix configurations in the same R8r platform.

ATM-CES lets the DEFINITY ECS emulate an ISDN-PRI trunk on an ATM facility. These virtual trunks can serve as integrated access, tandem, or tie trunks. ATM-CES emulates up to 8 ISDN spans on a single OC-3/STM-1 ATM interface.

Issue 1

April 2000

viOverview

ATM wide area network (ATM-WAN) extends the port network connectivity beyond a single ATM switch over large distances. This allows you to use either a private ATM network, public WAN or a combination of both. Several networked ATM devices can be used as effectively as a single ATM switch for inter-port network c onn ectivity.

The DEFINITY ECS switch can connect through several ATM switch types, many of which are sold through Lucent’s InterNetworking Systems (INS) channel, formerly know as DNS. Also, DEFINITY ECS switches are designed to work seamlessly with non-Lucent ATM switches that meet ATM standards set by the European Union.

Antistatic Protection

WARNING:

To minimize electrostatic discharge (ESD), always wear an authorized wrist ground strap when handling circuit packs or any components of a DEFINITY System. Connect the strap to an approved ground such as an unpainted metal surface on the DEFINITY ECS switch.

Remove/Install Circuit Packs

CAUTION:

The control circuit packs with white labels cannot be removed or installed when the power is o n. The port circuit packs with gra y labels (o lder version circuit packs had purple labels ) can be removed or installed when the power is on.

Issue 1

April 2000

xiiAntistatic Protection

Security

To ensure the greatest security possible, Lucent T echnologies offers services that can reduce toll fraud liabilities. Contact your Lucent Technologies representative for more security information.

Login security is an attribute of the DEFINITY ECS software. Advise customers that their existing passwords expire 24 hours after the upgrade. Also explain that the new passwords must conform to strict requirements.

System administrators must keep network addresses confidential. A PPN or any endpoint masquerading as a PPN on the ATM network can seize that EPN and control it if that EPN is not already connected to its proper PPN.

The complete DEFINITY ECS translations require precutover administration, which, in turn, requires a customer address scheme, specifically the ATM addresses for theTN2305/TN2306 ATM interface circuit pack(s). The address of the EPN is automatically read by the local ATM switch, using the address registration procedure defined in Integrated Local Management Interface (ILMI).

If field technicians do not have the login permissions required to obtain the EPN’s ATM address(es) directly from the ATM switch(es), the customer or ATM switch installer must provide that informatio n.

Determine ATM Switch Suitability

To fully support DEFINITY ATM-PNC and provide nonblocking ATM access between all port networks, ATM switches must support at least 400 point-to-multipoint switched virtual connection (SVC) roots or leaves per

OC-3/STM-1 interface. Because different switches have different limits—some limit roots, some leaves, and some the total, we have developed the Meiners’ Algorithm to determine whether a switch can support a proposed set of port networks in a proposed switch. This algorithm is available to Lucent engineers as a calculator within a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. You may access the MS Excel file at http://info.dr.lucent.com/~meiners/atm.html updates.

For best results, use the calculator for one ATM switch at a time. Use trial and error to set the values in the user-defined values section until the feasibility indicator reports

YES

NOTE:

Use of this spreadsheet is no substitute for thinking. Please apply basic sanity checks to the outcome. ATM switches may have limitations that the calculator does not consider.

To use the calculator, type the network layout and resource limits for the ATM switch you are using. Refer to the following caveats as you input your information:

1. Not all ATM switches have limits on all of the values. If a limit does not apply, enter any very large number (1000000 is good).

2. Some ATM switches (for example, access concentrators) allow a limited ability to configure the limits. Other switches have fixed limits. If you do not know the limits, ask the ATM switch vendor.

3. If your ATM switch is handling non-DEFINITY traffic, enter the resource limits after subtracting the resources used by the non-DEFINITY traffic.

4. If you are using an ATM switch with different limits on different modules or ports (for example, Lucent Cajun M770):

a. compute the average limits per port to which a DEFINITY port

network is attached. b. select the port with the most restrictive limitations. c. enter the system limit as these limits times the number of DEFINITY

port networks attached to that ATM switch.

NOTE:

The more partitioned the limits are, the less accurate are the results of the spreadsheet.

5. If you answer "yes" to transit traffic, the calculator may or may not be able to determine feasibility. If it cannot, the feasibility displays as

Final notes

The goal is to engineer the network so that in all reasonable applications, you always run out of DEFINITY time slots before running out of ATM switch resources. This is required to provide acceptable service to the customer.

These calculations factor in phone calls only. There is no specific accommodation for the ATM SVC cache, or for special features such as music, announcements, and group paging. The theory behind using 500 as the number of timeslots in a port network rather than the real number (484) is to allow for a normal amount of these special features. If you use multiple music on hold, group paging, and so forth, you may need special engineering.

These tests require that the switch be able to handle a complete suite of 2-party calls, a complete suite of 3-party calls, and a mixed suite that involves some calls of each type. For best results, your application should pass all the constraint tests.

Any ATM switch that processes transit traffic (that is, connections that do not either originate or terminate on any of the port networks directly attached to it) may require special engineering. This is possible if the number of trunks on the
