User’s Manual of EPL-2000
Robust Lay
With a high-split ratio of 1:64 and supporting the usage of PLANET ONUs, the EPL-2000 can minimize the investment cost for
carriers. By using the advanced technology in the telecommunication industry, the EPL-2000 provides strong functionalities for
Ethernet features such as VLAN, Multicast, DBA (Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation), and Access Control List. The EPL-2000 is an
ideal solution for FTTx applications.
GEPON is a point to multipoint communications protocol based on Gigabit Ethernet. It allows a Gigabit Ethernet
communications fiber to be shared by multiple end users using a passive optical splitter. GEPON communication takes place
between an Optical Line Terminal (OLT) and multiple Optical Network Units (ONUs). Using standard terminology, downstream
traffic flows from OLT to ONU, and upstream traffic flows from ONU to OLT. A protocol called Multi Point Control Protocol (MPCP)
is used to arbitrate the channel between the ONU’s so that no collisions will occur on the common fiber.

14
User’s Manual of EPL-2000
1. Make sure both sides of the SFP transceiver are with the same media type, for example: 1000BASE-SX to 1000BASE-SX,
1000Bas-LX to 1000BASE-LX.
2. Check whether the fiber-optic cable type matches the SFP transceiver model.
To connect to 1000BASE-SX SFP transceiver, use the multi-mode fiber cable, with one side being male duplex LC
connector type.
To connect to 1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver, use the single-mode fiber cable, with one side being male duplex LC
connector type.
Conn ecting the fiber cable
1. Insert the duplex LC connector on the network cable into the SFP transceiver.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device – switches with SFP installed, fiber NIC on a workstation or a Media
Converter.
3. Check the LNK/ACT LED of the SFP slot on the front of the GEPON OLT. Ensure that the SFP transceiver is operating
correctly.
4. Check the Link mode of the SFP port if the link fails. Works well with some fiber-NICs or Media Converters. Set the Link
mode to “1000 Force” if needed.
Removing the transceiver module
1. Make sure there is no network activity by consulting or checking with the network administrator. Or through the
management interface of the switch/converter (if available), disable the port in advance.
2. Remove the Fiber Optic Cable gently.
3. Turn the handle of the MGB module to a horizontal position.
4. Pull out the module gently through the handle.

3.4 SNMP-based Network Management

You can use an external SNMP-based application to configure and manage the GEPON OLT, such as SNMPc Network
Manager, HP Openview Network Node Management (NNM) or What’s Up Gold. This management method requires the SNMP
agent on the switch and the SNMP Network Management Station to use the same community string. This management method, in fact, uses two community strings: the get community string and the set community string. If the SNMP Net-work
management Station only knows the set community string, it can read and write to the MIBs. However, if it only knows the get
community string, it can only read MIBs. The default gets and sets community strings for the GEPON OLT are public.

4. EMS Management System

PLANET GEPON solutions include the OLT EPL-2000 and ONUs -- EPN-102 and EPN-103. The following information
introduces the software configuration.
This document explains how to use the EMS Utility for the purpose of evaluating the functionality and usability of Host Interface
Protocol. This manual assumes that the reader has a technical background and a base level of understanding regarding the
basic operation of PON equipment. The EMS Utility is a demonstration package, intended for evaluation purposes only.
Organization of the EMS Utility
The screen real estate used by the EMS Utility is divided into three sash windows and one EMS toolbar.
The upper left panel displays the entities that may be managed by the Host Interface, including the OLT, ONUs and
Logical Links. This sash window will be referred to as the Element Status Window.
Left clicking on an entity with the mouse will open a tabbed panel in the upper right sash window that may be used to
manage the entity. This sash window will be referred to as the Entity Management Window.
The bottom sash window is used for the purpose of logging the host interface message that is sent and received by the
EMS Utility, and will be referred to as the Message Log.
If the OLT is running normally and the ONUs register each of their LLIDs, you should see something similar to the figure. The left
handed pane shows the MAC addresses of the OLT and the ONU’s LLIDs. Depending on the number of ONUs, LLIDs, MAC
addresses, etc., you may see something slightly different. If the GUI fails to connect to the OLT, check the IP addresses of the
Host PC and the management port. Make sure you can ping the IP address assigned to the management port or uplink port.
Also verify that the Host and management IP addresses match in the GUI’s Utilities.

4.2.7 VLAN Management

4.2.7.1 VLAN Overview
A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a network topology configured according to a logical scheme rather than the physical
layout. VLAN can be used to combine any collection of LAN segments into an autonomous user group that appears as a single
LAN. VLAN also logically segments the network into different broadcast domains so that packets are forwarded only between
ports within the VLAN. Typically, a VLAN corresponds to a particular subnet, although not necessarily. VLAN can enhance
performance by conserving bandwidth, and improve security by limiting traffic to specific domains.
IEEE 802.1Q Standard
IEEE 802.1Q (tagged) VLAN are implemented on the Switch. 802.1Q VLAN requires tagging, which enables them to span the
entire network (assuming all switches on the network are IEEE 802.1Q-compliant).
VLAN allows a network to be segmented in order to reduce the size of broadcast domains. All packets entering a VLAN will only
be forwarded to the stations (over IEEE 802.1Q enabled switches) that are members of that VLAN, and this includes broadcast,
multicast and unicast packets from unknown sources.
VLAN can also provide a level of security to your network. IEEE 802.1Q VLAN will only deliver packets between stations that are
members of the VLAN. Any port can be configured as either tagging or untagging.:
The untagging feature of IEEE 802.1Q VLAN allows VLAN to work with legacy switches that don't recognize VLAN tags
50
User’s Manual of EPL-2000
in packet headers.
The tagging feature allows VLAN to span multiple 802.1Q-compliant switches through a single physical connection and
allows Spanning Tree to be enabled on all ports and work normally.
Some relevant terms:
- Tagging - The act of putting 802.1Q VLAN information into the header of a packet.
- Untagging - The act of stripping 802.1Q VLAN information out of the packet header.
802.1Q VLAN Tags
The figure below shows the 802.1Q VLAN tag. There are four additional octets inserted after the source MAC address. Their
presence is indicated by a value of 0x8100 in the Ether Type field. When a packet's Ether Type field is equal to 0x8100, the
packet carries the IEEE 802.1Q/802.1p tag. The tag is contained in the following two octets and consists of 3 bits of user priority,
1 bit of Canonical Format Identifier (CFI - used for encapsulating Token Ring packets so they can be carried across Ethernet
backbones), and 12 bits of VLAN ID (VID). The 3 bits of user priority are used by 802.1p. The VID is the VLAN identifier and is
used by the 802.1Q standard. Because the VID is 12 bits long, 4094 unique VLAN can be identified.
The tag is inserted into the packet header making the entire packet longer by 4 octets. All of the information originally contained
in the packet is retained.

The Ether Type and VLAN ID are inserted after the MAC source address, but before the original Ether Type/Length or Logical
Link Control. Because the packet is now a bit longer than it was originally, the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) must be
recalculated.

User’s Manual of EPL-2000
Port VLAN ID
Packets that are tagged (are carrying the 802.1Q VID information) can be transmitted from one 802.1Q compliant network
device to another with the VLAN information intact. This allows 802.1Q VLAN to span network devices (and indeed, the entire
network – if all network devices are 802.1Q compliant).
Every physical port on a switch has a PVID. 802.1Q ports are also assigned a PVID, for use within the switch. If no VLAN are
defined on the switch, all ports are then assigned to a default VLAN with a PVID equal to 1. Untagged packets are assigned the
PVID of the port on which they were received. Forwarding decisions are based upon this PVID, in so far as VLAN are concerned.
Tagged packets are forwarded according to the VID contained within the tag. Tagged packets are also assigned a PVID, but the
PVID is not used to make packet forwarding decisions, the VID is.
Tag-aware switches must keep a table to relate PVID within the switch to VID on the network. The switch will compare the VID of
a packet to be transmitted to the VID of the port that is to transmit the packet. If the two VID are different the switch will drop the
packet. Because of the existence of the PVID for untagged packets and the VID for tagged packets, tag-aware and tag-unaware
network devices can coexist on the same network.
A switch port can have only one PVID, but can have as many VID as the switch has memory in its VLAN table to store them.
Because some devices on a network may be tag-unaware, a decision must be made at each port on a tag-aware device before
packets are transmitted – should the packet to be transmitted have a tag or not? If the transmitting port is connected to a
tag-unaware device, the packet should be untagged. If the transmitting port is connected to a tag-aware device, the packet
should be tagged.
Default VLANs
The Switch initially configures one VLAN, VID = 1, called "default." The factory default setting assigns all ports on the Switch to the "default". As new VLAN are configured in Port-based mode, their respective member ports are removed from the "default."
Assigning Ports to VLANs
Before enabling VLANs for the switch, you must first assign each port to the VLAN group(s) in which it will participate. By default
all ports are assigned to VLAN 1 as untagged ports. Add a port as a tagged port if you want it to carry traffic for one or more
VLANs, and any intermediate network devices or the host at the other end of the connection supports VLANs. Then assign ports
on the other VLAN-aware network devices along the path that will carry this traffic to the same VLAN(s), either manually or
dynamically using GVRP. However, if you want a port on this switch to participate in one or more VLANs, but none of the
intermediate network devices nor the host at the other end of the connection supports VLANs, then you should add this port to
the VLAN as an untagged port.
Tagged and Untagged
Every port on an 802.1Q compliant network device can be configured as tagged or untagged.
52
User’s Manual of EPL-2000
Tagged:
Untagged:
Frame Leave
Leave port is tagged Frame remains tagged Tag is inserted
Ports with tagging enabled will put the VID number, priority and other VLAN information into the
header of all packets that flow into those ports. If a packet has previously been tagged, the port
will not alter the packet, thus keeping the VLAN information intact. The VLAN information in the
tag can then be used by other 802.1Q compliant devices on the network to make
packet-forwarding decisions.
Ports with untagging enabled will strip the 802.1Q tag from all packets that flow into those
ports. If the packet doesn't have an 802.1Q VLAN tag, the port will not alter the packet. Thus,
all packets received by and forwarded by an untagging port will have no 802.1Q VLAN
information. (Remember that the PVID is only used internally within the Switch). Untagging is
used to send packets from an 802.1Q-compliant network device to a non-compliant network
device.

5. EPL-2000 OPERATION

5.1 Address Table

The OLT switch is implemented with an address table. This address table os composed of many entries. Each entry is used to
store the address information on some nodes on the network, including MAC address, port number, etc.

5.2 Learning

When one packet comes in from any port, the OLT Switch will record the source address, port number, and other related
information in the address table. This information will be used to decide either forwarding or filtering for future packets.

5.3 Forwarding & Filtering

When one packet comes from some port of the Ethernet Switching, it will also check the destination address besides the source
address learning. The OLT Switch will look up the address table for the destination address. If not found, this packet will be
forwarded to all the other ports except the port, which this packet comes in. And these ports will transmit this packet to the
network it connected. If found, and the destination address is located at a different port from this packet comes in, the OLT
Switch will forward this packet to the port where this destination address is located according to the information from the
address table. But, if the destination address is located at the same port with this packet that comes in, then this packet will be
filtered, thereby increasing the network throughput and availability

5.4 Auto-Negotiation

The STP ports on the Switch have built-in "Auto-negotiation". This technology automatically sets the best possible bandwidth
when a connection is established with another network device (usually at Power On or Reset). This is done by detecting the
modes and speeds at the second of both devices are connected and capable of. Both 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX devices can
connect with the port in either Half- or Full-Duplex mode.
If attached device is: 100Base-T X p ort will set to:
10Mbps, no auto-negotiation 10Mbps.
10Mbps, with auto-negotiation 10/20Mbps (10BASE-T/Full-Duplex)
100Mbps, no auto-negotiation 100Mbps
100Mbps, with auto-negotiation 100/200Mbps (100BASE-TX/Full-Duplex)

Implicit implementation of the crossover function within a twisted-pair cable, or at a wiring panel, while not expressly forbidden,
is beyond the scope of this standard.

A.2 10/100Mbps, 10/100BASE-TX

When connecting your 10/100Mbps Ethernet Switch to another switch, a bridge or a hub, a straight or crossover cable is
necessary. Each port of the Switch supports auto-MDI/MDI-X detection. That means you can directly connect the Switch to any
Ethernet devices without making a crossover cable. The following table and diagram show the standard RJ45 receptacle/
connector and their pin assignments:
