2 Description

The FrameSaver NP 110 Frame Relay Service Unit (FSU) is a special purpose T1/FT1 CSU/DSU which provides management and diagnostic functions through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), transported over a Frame Relay network. It also includes an integral modem which supports dial-in access to the unit and to co-located equipment such as routers. The FrameSaver NP 110 can be factory optioned to include a DSX/Drop Adapter (for integrated voice/data applications) and an ISDN Adapter (4 BRIs, for Backup and/or additional Bandwidth On-Demand). Network Service Providers (NSPs) who prefer to have independent management access from their end-user networks (customer networks), can utilize the isolated management PVC designed int o the NP 110 for net work de marcation and diagnos tics.

Figure 2-1 shows a system level view of the FrameSaver NP 110, including management t ransport. As shown in the figure, the Fr ame Relay network provides Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVCs) for both the Customer Data and FrameSaver NP 110 management.

NOTE: FrameSaver NP 110 is transparent to SVCs (Switched Virtual Circuits). The NP 110 can have up to two I P Address es for ma nagement. On e IP Addres s allows

it to communicate with SNMP work stations that have access to the NSP management PVC. A second IP Address can provide manag ement ac cess v ia a cu stomer d ata PVC.

FrameSaver NP 110 can also send SNMP Traps to multiple SNMP Stations via the management PVCs. The integral modem is used to dial into the Network Control Center (NCC) Terminal Ser ver to report faults that are prevented fr om being repor ted over the PVC management channels. It can also accept maintenance calls from NCC Work Stations to support operator interaction, and accept inbound calls from a customer or NCC Work Station to manage co-located devices such as routers.

2 Description

FrameSaver NP 110 provides a configuration option to capture an d rank IP Traffic in either Top Conversation Pair or Top Talker/Listener mode. By examining Top IP Traffic statistics, the network manager can determine the local device or the host/client connections sending and receiving excessive traffic.

DSX/Drop Adapter Option

The FrameSaver NP 110 can be factory-optioned to include an integral DSX/Drop Adapter module (Drop & Insert). The DSX/Drop adap ter inclu des a DSX Port an d an additional V.35 Drop Port which are used to support Integrated Voice/Data (IVD) access applications.

Figure 2-2 shows three IVD applications. In each case, the IVD traffic is carried to a NSP POP where a DCS is employed to groom the voice and data traffic to the appropriate switching device.

In configuration (b), vo ice traffic is delivered t oward the network f rom a PBX through individual FXS circuits. In this case, the FrameSaver NP 110 terminates the T1 facility and provides a “drop” function that separates the DS 1 into a voice bu ndle. The bundl e is then delivered to a channel bank for conversion into m ultiple FXS circuits and a single V.35 frame relay User Interface data circuit for the router. This configuration facilitates inband access to the T1 performance through simple inband transport.

In configuration (c), voice traffic is delivered toward the network from a PBX through individual FXS circuits. In this case, a channel bank terminates the T1 facility and provides a “drop” function that separates the DS1 into multiple FXS circuits and a single frame relay User Interface data circuit. These circuits can be delivered to a standard FrameSaver NP 120 as V.35 or to a standard FrameSaver NP 110 as a DS1.

Figure 2-3 shows an application in which a third bundle of DS0s are integrated into the T1 stream and delivered to a separate V.35 drop port. In this applicati on, one group of DS0s are assigned to the customers PBX via the DSX port and used for direct access to the IXC’s inter-LATA dial network. The second group of DS0s are channeled via our V.35 User (frame aware) port for use on the customer’s frame relay Virtual Private Network. Then for security and bandwidth allocation purposes, the third group of DS0s for Internet access are channelized to a different router via a V.35 Drop port.

Depending on the network architecture, the ISP could be co-located with the IXC DCS or be remote from it, and the traffic on this bundle may or may not be frame relay.

Backup in Frame Relay Protocol utilizing the Router’s Primary Port can be via dedi- cated PVCs on an alternate port, or the frame switch manag er may reroute the or iginal PVCs to the Backup Frame Switch. It is also possible to b ypass the entire Frame Relay Network and initiate backup to a pool of ports on an alternate Frame Switch connected directly to another Router.

A typical network configuration showing the backup connection to a Backup Frame Switch using rerouted PVCs is shown in Figure 2-4.

ISDN Bandwidth On-Demand

Router

Bandwidth On-Demand provides an additional network connection for a second DTE (router) port based on a r equest fr om th e DTE. In this configurat ion t he NP 110 ISD N Adapter is protocol-transparent. The Router determines the protocol used.

A typical network configuration showing simultaneous Bandwidth On-Demand and Backup connections is shown in Figure 2-5.

Figure 2-5 Typical Simultaneous Bandwidth On-Demand Configuration

ISDN Adapter ML-PPP Support

The bandwidth on-demand process is described as follows:

•

User’s router detects need for bandwidth and raises DTR on its second port.

•

FrameSaver NP 110 ISDN Adapter calls predetermined number.

•

The Central Router answers the call and establishes communications with the remote Router.

•

Communication commences between Routers.

•

User’s Router lowers DTR to terminate the ISDN connection when the “demand” has been satisfied.

Because the FrameSaver NP equipment is intended to operate as a demarcation device, it cannot be dependent on co-located equipment to establish a connection. For this reason, connection-associated parameters reside in the FrameSaver NP. ML-PPP operation is based on the use of CHAP or PAP ID or Caller ID to associate each incoming call with the proper ML-PPP bundle. Because the associated router is using a single physical port, it must be configured for PPP. The ML-PPP engine supports the Link Configuration Protocol (LCP) required by PPP. In this case, the configuration values are defined by the ML-PPP RFC, but are communicated to the router to ensure orderly operation.

ML-PPP is supported on a dial-out basis on the BOD port only.

FrameSaver NP 110

The basic FrameSaver NP 110 includes a T1 interface, network-compliant Fractional Rate to Full Rate CSU/DSU, a Frame Relay switch function, a Frame Relay manag e ment module, and an SNMP Agent.

The unit includes an internal V.90 modem and two Auxiliary ports. An integral call director connects the modem to the CSU, AUX 1 port, AUX 2 port, or Option module (ISDN) based on a DTMF code sent by the caller. All the devices can access the modem for call-out purposes on a first-come, first-served basis.

The unit also includes a CPE power-control feature, whereby power to the CPE can be momentarily interrupted by operator command to the FrameSaver NP (thereby forcing a reset of the CPE.)

System software can be downloaded to the FrameSaver NP 110 for upgrades.

Detailed descriptions of the FrameSav er NP 110 indi cators and controls are provided in section 5, “Diagnostics” in this manual. Connector and pinout details are provided in section 3, “Installation” in this manual.

The in-band Frame Relay Management Cha nnel WAN address is defined by the DLCI (Data Link Connection Identifier). The WAN DLCI can be configured for a Dedicated PVC, or as a Tunneled channel within a Payload PVC. During initial installation the WAN DLCI can be set via the unit’s Local Console Port or Dial-In Console Port. Thereafter the DLCI can also be changed via in-band management access.

FrameSaver NP 110 has special features for Network Service Providers (NSPs) who require management access (to the unit) to be isolated from the payload data. This iso lated access is provided either by FrameSaver NP 110’s dedicat ed netw ork -facing management PVC as shown in Figure 2-1 or by the Tunneled management channel on a network-facing Payload PVC as shown in Figure 2-8.

2 Description

WAN Management IP Address

FrameSaver NP 110 utilizes one IP Address on the dedicated, network-facing Wide Area Network (WAN) management channel. This address is embedded within the various communications protocol stacks used for SNMP, Telnet and PPP. The unit’s WAN Management IP Address may be automatically learned from the first message received on the management PVC, or it can be set via the local or remote Console Port.

When optioned with ISDN, FrameSaver NP 110 can have several communications paths that allow the management channel to connect to the frame relay network in different places. Each of these connection points could result in the management PVC routing through different IP sub-nets to reach the Network Contro l Center, or it may be desirable to have the FrameSaver NP 110 appear as a logically different object in the SNMP manager, especially if static routing and dedicated backup ports are utilized. The setting/learning of these additional IP Addresses is described in detail in Section 4, “Configuration,” in this manual.

FrameSaver NP 110 will retain in Non-Volatile Memory (NVM), a separate WAN IP Address for each connection point. All communications via OOB PPP (Out-Of-Band Point-to-Point Protocol ) will utilize whatever IP Address is in effect depending on how the unit is currently connected to the network. There are several options for establishing the WAN IP Address within the FrameSaver NP 110.

When the unit is shipped from the factory or when NVM is cleared on initial installation, the WAN IP Address for each connection point is set to 000.000.000.000 , wh ich indicates no address is known.

Software Download

The WAN IP Address to be used on the T1 link is automatically “learned” from the first valid IP message received over the unit’s management PVC. Learning will take place as long as the value of the WAN IP Address in NVM is 000.000.000.000. Once the IP Address is set or learned it is retained and used until the NVM is cleared or another addre s s is manually set.

The FrameSaver NP 110 system software (firmware) is stored in flash memory. A new version of the softwa re can be down loaded to the uni t for sof tware upg rade, or fo r restoration in the event an error is detected in the flash storage.

A description of the software download process is provided in Section 5, “Diagnos- tics,” in this manual.

Trap Reporting

Event Log

The FrameSaver NP 1 10 provides a MIB which includes s t andar d MIB -II gro ups an d also contains a Private MIB Extension which supports the issuance of unique Traps. Traps are notifications of events which are significant in terms of performance and/or troubleshooting.

Traps are issued either in-band or dial-out (out- of-band) via the on-board modem, depending on the specific fault detected.

The MIB objects and the Trap reporting path for each are listed in Section 5, “Diag- nostics” of this manual.

FrameSaver NP 110 includes an Even t Log which captures and Trap occurrences and logs them into a table for SNMP retrieval. The table stores up to 255 of the latest occurred events.

The log table includes the following:

•

A unique event number for each event. Maximum number is 65,536 after which the count restarts. The count is als o restar ted b y a un it res et or power up.

•

A relative time-stamp which counts from when the unit last started operation.

•

A description of the event, including any data included in the Trap regarding that event.

Power On

With all the connections completed, the FrameSaver NP 110 is ready to b e powered on.

Proceed by holding in the recesse d push button switc h labeled “NVM RESET” on the unit’s rear panel while plugging i n the power cord and continu e t o hold the button for approximately six (6) seconds. This will “clear” the unit’s NVM, resetting all the configuration parameters to their default values. After the NVM Reset button is released, the FrameSaver NP 110 will go through the power-on sequence as follows:

a. The UNIT POWER LED will light immediately and stay on. b. The UNIT READY LED will flash while the unit performs its self-

test (test duration - approximately 60 seconds).

c. The UNIT READY LED will be ON steady after successful comple-

tion of the self-test.

d. The NETW ALARM and UNIT FRM MGMT LEDs should not be

flashing together.

e. All other LED indications should be ignored at this time.

If the LED indications are not as d escribed above, refer to section 5 Diagnostics of this manual.

NOTE: If the Dial Line has not been connected to the FrameSaver NP 110 prior to powering the unit on, the unit will issue a Dial Line Failure In-Band Trap to the Trap Manager after it completes its Modem and Dial Line self test.

Proceed to the next section, “Establish Management Session.”

connection within 60 seconds.

Operating Mode D or B - Raising DTR will assign modem to AUX Port

(if not already in-use) within five seconds.

Each character sequence “^M” within the AT string causes <CR> <LF> to

be sent followed by a one (1) second delay, making it possible to define

multiple command lines.

5. AUX 2 Setup - Functions the same as for AUX 1 above.

6. Retry Count - Enter number of times the FrameSaver NP 110 will reattempt a

connection when dialing out via modem, after the initial attempt has failed.

Encapsulation

Protocols are encapsulated and carried within eac h Frame Relay “Frame” and are iden tified by the NLPID (Network Level Protocol ID). The NLPID may identify a specific protocol such as defined by IETF, or indicate a set of lower level protocols such as SNAP (SubNetwork Access Protocol).

WAN Encap - Select the type of IP encapsulation to be u sed for private network PVC management access. Selections are:

Learning - The unit will attempt to learn automatically. Once a value is entered or auto-learned, auto-learning will be discontinued.

Raw - No protocol specified. Data (user’s payload) is encapsulated only by the frame of the Frame Relay packet.

IETF - Protocol will be specified by its own NLPID. SNAP - Protocol will be under the SNAP NLPID.

P/C Encap - Select the type of IP en capsulation to be used for management acces s via

the Payload PVC or CPE (private user) PVC. Selections are:

Preface the DLCI number with “T” for tunneled PVC. Preface the DLCI number with “D” to have the WAN Mgmt IP Address relearned each time the PVC returns to an “active” condition.

2. P/C Mgmt DLCI - Sets or disables the direction and PVC for Payload/CPE

management access to the FrameSaver NP 1 10. The firs t letter (P or C) d etermines which direction, and the remainder indicates the DLCI value.

NOTE: The P/C Mgmt DLCI value must NOT be the same as WAN Mgmt DLCI.

CAUTION

If either WAN or P/C Mgmt DLCI value is changed, the FrameSaver NP 110 will perform a system reset after the Save [SA] command is issued. The system reset will terminate any console session in pro data traffic.

3. LMI Protocol - Displays and allows the selection of the LMI protocol used. If set

to “None,” LMI traffic (if any) to or from the Network will be passed through the FrameSaver NP unaffected, and the unit’s LMI alarms and status will be cleared.

T391/Status Enquiry Rate - Interval in seconds between the LMI Status Enquiries issued by the FrameSaver NP 110 to the Network (Frame Switch).

The ratio of N392 to N393 defines t he rat e of Bad/ No LMI res ponses to Coun t of events, beyond which the Network link is declared Out-of-Service. This ratio is set by selecting the values (1 to 10) for each of these parameters, defined as follows: N392/Event Error Threshold - Number of Bad/No responses to LMI Status Enquiries issued by FrameSaver NP 110.

N393/Even t Count - Count of all monitored requests (to be used for the ratio). N391/Full Status Frequency - The Frequency Number “n” will cause every

“n

” LMI Status Enquiry issued to be a Full LMI Status Enquiry.

PVC BECN/FECN Threshold - FrameSaver NP 110 maintains a count of seconds during which a receive frame contained a BECN or FECN bit s et. When the number of seconds containing BECN or FECN bits (flags) for any PVC in the most recent interval equals or exceeds this Threshold Setting, an alarm is declared.

5. User (DCE) - Consists of the settings required for the various protocols. These

include T392, N392 and N393.

T392/Status Enqui r y T i m eou t - Timeout interval in seconds while waiting for an LMI Status Enquiry from the User equipment.

The ratio of N392 to N393 defines the rate of Bad/No LMI inquiries to Count of events, beyond which the User link is declared Out-of-Service. This ratio is set by selecting the values (1 to 10) for each of these parameters, defined as follows: N392/Event Error Threshold - Number of Bad/No inquiries for LMI Status Enquiries issued by the User equipment.

N393/Even t Count - Count of all monitored inquiries (to be used for the ratio). Force Full Status Response - Enable causes the FrameSaver NP 110 to send

four consecutive Full L MI Enquir y Messages toward the Net work upon detecting a recovery of its T1 link (or ISDN link if so option ed and active). Upon receivin g a Full Response it forwards that to the DTE, regardless of that enquiry type. In some cases this will speed recovery from a link outage. Disable causes the FrameSaver NP 110 to follow normal conventions per the N391 parameter.

6. Link Err Threshold - Disable or set the threshold of Data Frame Error Seconds

which when reached or exceeded causes an alarm to be declared. Set independently for Network and User sides.

1. Page - Selects one page of the indicated number to display.

2. Desired Delay Mon Rate - Setting for the rate at which a Delay measurement

packet is injected on each PVC in the list specified at the bottom of this screen. Default value (10) dictates that within each 10-second period, every PVC on the list is measured once. A PVC’s packet is considered lost if it does not retu rn before a subsequent packet is injected on that PVC. The packet send rate cannot exceed 10 per second.

NOTE: FrameSaver NP 110 Delay measurement packets are 36 bytes in length, when issued. A FrameSaver NP looping (receiving and returning) a Delay measurement packet will add two additional bytes to the packet.

3. Min Pkts for Delay Alarm - Setting for the number of packets that must be

received within the current interval on a PVC before the “PVC Delay Thres” average is considered a valid check for that PVC. If the number is not reached within the interval, that PVC cannot cause the alarm condition to be declared or maintained, based on the average of the packets received.

4. Desired Loss Mon Rate - Setting for the rate at which a Loss measurement

packet (Packet-Counting packet) is injected on each PVC in the list specified at the bottom of this screen. Default value (60) dictates that within each 60-second period, every PVC in the list is measured once. A PVC’s packet is considered lost if it does not return before a subsequent packet is injected on that PVC. On a perPVC basis, the originating unit delays 10 seconds if the previous response was lost. The packet send rate cannot exceed 10 per second.

NOTE: FrameSaver NP 110 Loss packets ar e 4 2 bytes in leng th, when issued . A FrameSaver NP looping (receiving and returning) a Loss packet will add two additional bytes to the packet.

5. Drpd Mon Pkt Thres - FrameSaver NP 110 maintains a count of monitor

packets lost (both Delay and Loss packets) fo r the cu rren t interval f or each PVC. When either of the monitor packet counts on any PVC equals or exceeds this threshold setting, a “PVC Drpd Mon Alarm” is declared. The alarm is cleared when all PVCs in a subsequent interval fail to equal or exceed the threshold value. Applies to auto and manually learned DLCIs.

6. PVC Delay Thres - FrameSaver NP 110 maintains an average delay

measurement for each PVC for the current interval. A “PVC Delay Alarm” is declared when the average on any PVC equals or exceeds this setting. The alarm is cleared when all PVCs in a subsequent interval fail to equal or exceed the threshold value. Applies to auto and manually learned DLCIs.

7. PVC Dlvd Pkt Thres - A “PVC Dlvd Pkt Alarm” is declared when the

percentage of packets delivered on any monitored PVC falls below this threshold setting. The alarm is cleared when all PVCs in a subsequent interval fail to fall below the threshold value. Applies to auto and manually learned DLCIs.

8. Interval Period - Sets the time period for each interval of PVC statistics,

from one (1) to 15 minutes. NOTE: Changing the interval period will cause all PVC and Protocol Monitoring

Test Installation

The final step of the FrameSaver NP 110 installation is to verify operations. This is done through the Network Control Center (NCC).

1. Contact the Network Control Center and inform the Operator that the physical installation and initial configuration are completed.

2. The NCC will establish a management session to the FrameSaver NP 110 and complete any final/additional configuration, and review the system’s status screens to verify operation.

NOTE: To enab le NCC management access, the local console sess ion must be logged out, and if the NCC is attempting a dial-in connection, the local terminal must also be disconnected from the AUX 2 port.

If this installation is configured for Out-Of-Band Trap Reporting, a test of this feature should also be performed. This is done by initiating a Network communications failure which causes the FrameSaver NP 110 to issue a Trap Report to the T rap Manager. This test must be coordinated with the NCC Operator to verify that the Trap Report is received and that Network communications are restored after the test.

3. Coordinate the initiation of this test with the NCC Operator, and when told to do so, disconnect the T1 Line from the FrameSaver NP 110. The FrameSaver NP 1 10 will dial-out to issue a Trap Report after approximately five (5) seconds. This can be seen on the front panel by the “MODEM IN USE” LED going s teady ON. A fter the “MODEM IN USE” LED goes OFF, reconnect the T1 Line and confirm with the NCC Operator that the Trap Report has been received, and that good communications have been reestablished with the FrameSaver NP 110.

NOTE: If the NCC management session (Step # 2) was established via dial-in, this must be terminated before the FrameSaver NP 110 can use the Modem to issue the Trap Report.

This dial-out Trap Report test is highly recommended because it adds a greater level of confidence to the completion of the installation process. This test verifies all of the following, in addition to the normal operation of the FrameSaver NP 110:

The installation and initial testing are now complete. If any results were other than those described, refer to section 5, “Diagnostics” in this manual for assistance.

NOTES:

1. All User Port Loops and BERTs are at the current User Port configured data rate (56 or 64 kBps.)

2. Only one BERT may be active at a time. The results are a count of the number of Blocks Sent, Blocks Errored, Block Error Rate and the durat ion of the test, displaye d as shown on t he example screen above. When the BERT duration reaches the maximum count of 99:59:59, all counts freeze until cleared or reset by the operator (the BERT data however, continues to be sent).

3. PVC tests will prompt for the input of a PVC DLCI destination.

4. Test Pkts to Netw display results include selected DLCI, packets sent, packets dropped, percent received, octets sent, test duration and average and maximum delay (network and full delay), for each network segment.This test’s delay values may not correlate to values displayed on the PVC Statistics Screens because the Link Test Packet size (40 - 1590 octets) is larger than the Delay measurement packet (36 octets).

5. Delay and Loss measur ement packets (for ALL

PVCs) are halted, while a “T est Pkts to Netw” test is performed. This will also affect the Delay and Loss packet counts and measurement fields on the PVC Statistics Screens.

6. Initiating certain test options, when management access is via the T1 link, will terminate management. These tests will be blocked and an Error Message displayed on the screen. Examples of this are “BERT to Netw” and “Test Pkts to Netw” where the DLCI selection matches the manageme nt DLCI of this unit.

Commands:

ResetTest [RT] - Resets BERT or PVC result counters without disrupting the test

operation and refreshes all dynamic information contained on the screen.

InjectErr [IE secs] - Injects a single bit error into the BERT stream. When issued without the “secs,” a single bit error will be injected at execution of this command. When issued with a “secs” value between 1 - 255, a single bit error will be injected once a second for the number of “secs” entered (user can issue other commands while this takes place in background).

RebootExt [RE secs] - Used to interrupt AC Power to the DTE device connected to

the Switched AC Output connector on the rear of the unit, thereby forcing the device to reboot. When issued with a “secs” parameter, power will rem ain off for the specified length of time (1 - 3 00 s econds). W hen issued as “RE” on ly, power will be interrupted for five seconds at the execution of this command.

Help [?] - Advances to “Help” for Device Status / Test screen. Close [X] - Returns to System View screen. AutoUpdate [AU] - Provides automatic screen update and refresh (every five sec-

Alarms

FrameSaver NP 110 generates “traps” (SNMP alarms or alerts) in response to certain detected network conditions. The traps are reported either In-band utilizing the Management PVC, or via Dial-Out utilizing the internal Modem. The traps are also logged to an SNMP retrievable event log. Alarm conditions are also displayed on FrameSaver NP 110 status screens and on front panel indicators.

Traps

The conditions (objects) which generate traps are included in the FrameSaver NP 110 Private MIB Extension and are listed in Table 5-3.
