Section I: FBRM/BFFG Product Description |
Transition Networks |
General description
Design and The FBRM and BFFG Devices are designed as standalone models, and also as slide- configuration in Devices for the Point System chassis. These Devices can be managed through
SNMP via the Focal Point software (free), Web-based management, Local SNMP, and USB interfaces.
The CFBRM and CBFFG (chassis Devices), and SFBRM and SBFFG (standalone Devices) are designed to manage Devices remotely through the copper and fiber ports.
The FBRM or BFFG Devices installed on a network should be configured one as the local peer and the other as a remote peer for management.
Remote management is accomplished using OAM (Operation Administration and Maintenance) per the IEEE 802.3ah, 2004 standard. Standalone Devices can also be managed via IP (Web-based) or Telnet.
What is OAM? These Devices implement the IEEE 802.3ah standard or (OAM) in the Ethernet first mile. OAM is a group of network management functions that provide network fault indications, performance information, data, and diagnosis. These Devices implement remote management via OAM as per the IEEE 802.3ah standard.
In-band |
These Devices implement complete Real-Time Multi-Threaded Operating System |
management |
(RTOS) with a TCP/IP stack for in-band management. |
USB interface The USB (Universal Serial Bus) type “B” serial port is used mainly to configure Device-basic setup before installation and operation on a network.
Point System Implements the current Point System management I2C interface. This allows mgmt interface managing the Device via SNMP, using the existing Point System method.

Management methods
Management |
The FBRM and BFFG Devices support the following management methods: |
|
• USB CLI (Command Line Interface) |
|
• Telnet |
|
• MMU (Management Module Unit) chassis web-based |
|
• IP-based (web-based directly to the Device) |
USB |
|
USB management requires a direct connection to the Device via a computer. This |
|
|
method is used to set up initially or to troubleshoot Devices in the field. |
Telnet |
|
Telnet management requires that the Device be connected to a network. Then from |
|
|
the CPU command line type Telnet and the Device IP address as shown as follows: |
|
Telnet nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn (represents Device IP address). |
|
|
MMU |
The MMU (Management Module Unit) is the heart of the Point System chassis’ |
|
management capability. It has the ability to monitor and manage all its installed |
|
Devices. The MMU communicates through the CLI presented at the serial port, or |
|
through SNMP, Telnet CLI, and Web interface available via the Ethernet port. |
IP-based (web- |
The switch provides complete management through IP via an SNMP interface, web- |
based) |
browser, or Telnet. The Device provides an embedded web server for web-based |
|
management. It also offers advanced management features and enables Device |
|
management from anywhere on the network through a standard browser, such as |
|
Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape. |

FBRM/BFFG13xx-1xx fiber-to-fiber gigabit models
Gigabit (Gbit) The FBRM100Base-FX-to-1000Base-X and the BFFG 1000Base-X-to-1000Base-X models are the Gbit versions of the IEEE 802.3ah managed Devices. The BFFG models link
Gbit fiber connections; the FBRM models convert 100Base-Fx 100 Mbit/s to Gbit. These Devices function generally in the same manner as copper-to-fiber FBRMs, the difference is the way the ports are configured. See Tables 1 and 2.

Connectivity The different versions of the FBRM and BFFG can be connected and set up to manage a remote peer completely. In a mixed setup with other FBRM or BFFG Devices, consider the connectivity scenarios in Figure 9, and the explanation that follows:
Figure 9: Connectivity Scenarios
Connection In Figure 9, P2 of the active local peer in both scenarios is “OAM enabled” and scenario “Active” by default. To manage the remote passive peer via OAM, configure P1 of explanation the active local peer as follows:
•Enable OAM
•Select Active mode
If the connection to the passive remote peer is made thru P2 of the active local peer, OAM occurs without human intervention.
Note: Automatic firmware upgrades will not occur with different types of FBRM or BFFG Device configurations.

Redundant SFBRM1040-140 models
Redundant These SFBRM SFP Devices support fiber redundancy. They have two (2) fiber SFP models ports and one (1) copper port. When you tag the fiber ports as primary and secondary
with redundancy enabled, any fault on the primary port results in the secondary port becoming operational. There is an option for reverting back to the primary once it has been restored, or you can continue using the secondary port—these are user selectable features. See Figure 10.
Figure 10: SFBRMs in Redundant Mode
Explanation With Port 3 as the secondary port in Redundancy Mode and Port 2, the primary goes down, the following will happen:
Stage |
Description |
A. |
All Physical layer and OAM configurations of Port 2 will be applied to |
|
Port 3. |
B. |
Port 2 is disabled, and Port 3 initialized to take over. |
C. |
An SNMP trap is sent indicating that the ports have switched. |
D. |
OAM reinitializes (resets all OAM counters and event logs). |
E. |
All the dynamic MAC entries in the ATU are flushed and the active port |
|
has to relearn the entries. |
Note: If the configuration option “revert” is set, when the primary port link is restored the session will revert back to the primary port. If the “revert’ option is NOT SET and the primary link is restored, the secondary port remains in operation until the user intervenes.
