HDM 2180 DS3 DSU Overview

This manual describes ho w to use the HDM 2180 DS3 DSU Craft interface. As part of Verilink’s AS2000 mod ular platform, the HDM 2180 DS3 DSU pr ov id es a co n n e ct i o n between T3 circu i ts an d dat a terminal equipment (DTE) and p rovides clear channel servi ce for up to 28 T1 or 44.7 Mbit/s.

Clear-channel DS3 networking is used primarily with high-speed router backbones and mainframe channel extenders. The highspeed capabilities of clear-channel DS3 networking provide the bandwidth needed to meet the heavy demands of client-server applications, such as CAD/CAM, video imaging, data warehousing, data vaulting, and backup.

When the HDM 2180 is installed between large data centers it can support mission-criti cal applications that mirror data between mainframe computers or backbone routers. Installing a DS3 circuit between data centers c an ensu re that informa tion is copied to both locations.

High-Speed Serial Interface (HSSI) Port

The Local port provides the Craft interface for configuration, control, and monitoring. A secondary function of this interface is to provide a debug monito r port for troubleshootin g.

This interface uses a 19.2 kbit/s rate and is asynchronous without hardware flow control. The HDM 2180 Local port is RS-232 compliant for a fro nt-panel RJ-11 conn ector.

The front panel of the HDM 2180 provides an RJ-45 SNMP port for direct Ethernet twisted-pair communication via Telnet. The HDM 2180 embedded SNMP supports SNMPv1 and is 10BaseT compliant.

•

External—75Ω female BNC connector acce pts external timing. The reference timing input accepts a TTL level DS3 rate clock.

Specialized support is provided for the inband management channel in C-bit parity applications. The three C-bits in M-subframe 5 of the DS3 frame are assigned as a 28.2 kbit/s terminal-toterminal path maintenan ce d ata link. The signal format used on this data link consists of messages using the Link Access Procedure on the D-channel (LAPD) protocol. A dedicated HDLC controller is built into the hardware for this 28.2 kbit/s LAPD data link. The controller supports polled, interrupt-driven operation.

Far-End Alarm and Control

Downloadable Upgrades

Compatibility with Other Verilink Products

Dedicated support is provided for Far End Alarm and Control (FEAC) signals in C-bit parity applications. The third C-bit in Msubframe 1 of the DS3 frame provides the FEAC signal. A bitoriented message protocol (16 bit length) is used on the FEAC data stream.

As a member of the AS2000 product family, the HDM 2180 incorporates Verilink’s Advanced Programmable Architecture (APA).

With APA, you can download upgraded firmware to all HDM modules on your shelves from a single NCM source into the modules’ onboard RAM via FTP. The firmware contained in the flash can also be field-replaced with upgraded chips.

The HDM 2180 can reside on the same shel f with all other AS2000 products; however, it does not pass data on the midplane and does not use the TABS bus of the shelf midplane. The HDM 2180 is a standalone system that can also be managed through the ACP bus of the shelf midplan e by an NCM 2000 module. Ad vantages of using the NCM module include:

Technical Desc rip t ion

The HDM 2180 consists of two components:

•

Higher security on the network with four levels of access using password control (instead of only one access password).

•

Verilink’s proprietary overhead bandwidth signalling that enables you to configure and troubleshoot the far-end node without interference from repeaters in the network. (This overhead bandwidth requires the C-bit parity format.)

•

Up to three users can access the module at a time.

•

Using the Advanced Programmable Architecture (APA) to download upgrade firmware to all HDM 2180 modules within or cross-shelf from a single NCM source.

•

The HDM can be managed with a graphical user int erface (GUI) using Verilink’s Node Manager software application.

•

A front-panel module, which contains the DSU microprocessor including firmware in flash, and

•

A detachable rear-panel connector interface module (CDM

2180), which contains a high-speed serial interface (HSSI) data port and 75Ω coaxial transmit and receive network connectors for the DS3 network interf ace.

Using an NCM in your DS3 network offers several advantages:

• Higher security on the network with four levels of access using password control.

• Verilink’s proprietary overhead bandwidth enables you to configure and troubleshoot the far-end node without interference from repeaters in the network. The “inband channel” requires the C-bit parity format.

• Up to three users can access the DS3 module at a time.

The following commands are available on the Main Menu to set and manage many of the HDM 2180 parameters (for more extensive information about the NCM module, see the NCM 2000 User Manual):

P Port Status—Toggles between In Service and Out of Service. When Configuration Mode

(below) is Automatic, the Port Status is an informational display. The HSSI data port is in service when DTR is presented by the DTE and it is out of service when the DTE fails to assert DTR.

When Configuration Mode (below) is set to Manual, the Port Status command becomes a toggle. If Mode = Manu al and Port Status = OU T OF SERVICE, then issuing the Port Status command will place the port IN SERVICE, whether or not any DTE is present and is asserting DTR.

Conversely, if Con fig urati on Mo de = Manu al an d th e Por t Statu s = IN SERV ICE, issu in g the Port Status comma n d will pl ac e t he p o rt OUT OF SERVICE, stopp i ng all user data.

M Configuration Mode—The Configuration Mode toggles between Automatic and Manual

each time the Configuration Mode Command is issued. When Configuration Mode is Automatic, the Port Status is an informational display. The

HSSI data port is in service when DTR is presente d by the DTE and it is out of service wh en the DTE fails to assert DTR.

When Configurat ion Mo de is set to Manua l, the Port S tatus c ommand beco mes a toggl e. If Mode = Manual and Port Status = OUT OF SERVICE, then issuing the Port Status command will place the port IN SERVICE, whether or not an y DTE is present and is asserting DTR.

Selecting R from the Main Menu dis p la ys th e Data Link Layer Remote Configuration Menu. This option provides the ability to

configure key communication characteristics of a DS3 module connected to the far-end of a DS3 port before enabling the inband on this DS3 port. Config uration of the site name, node address, node ID, and inband state permits you to establish initial communication bet ween local and remote units without having to send operators to remote sites to enable inband communication. However, you are limited to one inband session at a time over a DS3 inband c ha n nel to the far- en d NCM node.

NOTE: If yo u plug in a new DS3 at the far end of a DS3 port, and

accessing this menu displays an acce ptable configuration of node ID and node address, using the "Update NCM No de Table" option will permit the immediate update of the NCM knowledge base. If you do not use the "Update NCM Node Table” option to make the NCM aware of the configuration of

Standalone HDM 2180 SNMP Management

Embedded Network Management System Using SNMP

HDM 2180 SNMP Physical Interfaces

The SNMP port connects to an Ethernet segment connected to a PC running a user-supplied SNMP application, such as Verilink’s Node Manager. Using such an application and depending on the Management Information Base (MIB) interfaces provided, you can configure, control, and monitor the performance of an HDM 2180 circuit

HDM 2180 allows appropriate values to be assigned to and collected from the co nfiguration management obj e cts defined in the supported MIBs.

An integrated (embedded) SNMP agent is used in th e product. HDM 2180 is a separate manageable ne two rk entity under the SNMP management application protocol. All configuration, control, and monitoring elements handled via th e ASCII terminal a re available to the SNMP agent. The embedded management services provide information for network managers, system administrators, customer service, field service personnel, and engineers to manage the HDM 2180.

The only physical interface provided for SNMP on the circuit card assembly is a 10Base-T Ethernet twisted pair implementation. A SLIP interface is not supported.

Management Protocols

HDM 2180 embedded SNMP supports SNMPv1. These standard network management protocols support the following areas:

• Implementation of standard MIBs

• Implementation of enterprise-specific MIBs

• Remote booting

• Configuration Management

Troubleshooting

What Elicits an Alarm

The NCM 2000 module polls the H DM 2180 modules for alarms. If alarm reporting is enable d for the node and for the HDM 2180,

the NCM retrieves and sends alarms to the Craft Interface, Node Manager, or an SNMP agent where they can be viewed.

Alarms can also be automatically sent to a specified printer by setting up the printer address in the various management utilities menus. See the appropriate management utility user manual for information on how to do this.

The Alarms

The alarm list displays:

Alarm Listings

• Whenever the system powers up and any module performs a self-test

• Power supply input is lost

• A default or user-designated threshold is exceeded

• A Yellow Alarm is received from the network

• An unframed all-ones or alarm indi cation signal (AIS) is

reveived from the network

• There is a loss of signal (LOS) or loss of frame (LOF)

• A CSU or DIU loopback is present

• A module fails

• A module is removed from the shelf

On any of the various listings of the alarms being received by the NCM for the HDM, the alarm listing will generally show the following information about the alarms (This may vary depending on the management method you are using).

Alarm Description

Classifications

Problem Types

The Alarm Description column lists the text that is

• printed on the display

• sent to the alarm printer (i f using Node Manager or SNMP

agent)

• saved to the alarm buffer/database

Verilink classifies alarms into the following Severities:

• Critical

• Major

• Minor

• Warning

• Info

• Cleared

These classifications are further categorized into the Proble m Types:

• LOS—Loss of Signal

• LOF—Loss of Frame

• Error

• Call Setup

What To Do About Alarms

Some alarms will clear after the user-configured timeout has expired. Other alarms require you to take corrective action.

• If an alarm has been cleared, no other action is required.

• If there is a loopback present (unless you are intentially

testing), remove the loopback. (Only if the loopback is from your end. If it is from your telco, you may need to verify the loopback with them.)

• If you have a Loss of Frame (LOF), yo u may have a telco or module problem. To test, do a Repeater Loopback (RLB) to test for LOF. If there is no LOF indicated by the test, th e problem is with the telco.

• If you have a Loss of Signal (LOS), check your router cables, power, and ports.

6-2 Verilink HDM 2180 User M anual

Troubleshooting

• If you have a Powerup Self-test Fail, reseat the module to see if it will power up and pass the self test. If it does not pass after repeated self tests, replace the module.

Alarm Records

Interpreting Alarms

Every alarm record that ap pears on your screen is “acti v e ” in the database until you do something about it. You can do the following with the alarm records:

• Deactivating alarm records is a database management function. As long as an alarm is active, you can view it on screen, using one of the management options on the Craft interface or Node Manager. When you deactivate an alarm, it’s still in the database, but not viewable on screen. Deactivated alarms can be subsequently archived, printed, or deleted.

• Archiving an alarm record stores it to a disk file you specify.

• Printing an alarm record p rints a copy of all active and

deactivated alarms.

• Deleting an alarm record re moves it from the database. To delete an alarm, you must first deactivate it.

Fault conditions can result in critical, major, or minor alarms. In addition, a fault condition can also result in a Carrier Failure Alarm (CFA).

Critical Alarms

Major Alarms

A critical alarm indicates that the node or components of the node have failed. The following alarms are classified as critical :

• Alarm Indication Signal Second (AIS S)—A second when the CSU receives an unframed all-ones Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) from the network.

• Loss of Fram e Second (LOF S)—A LOFS is the total number of seconds that the CSU was in the Loss of Frame (LOF) state.

• Loss of Signal Second (LOSS)—A LOSS is a second during which the CSU is in a Loss of Signal (LOS) state.

• Severely Errored Framing Second (SEFS)—The second in which two or more framing bit errors occur within a 3millisecond period.

A major alarm indi cates a condit ion where perfo rmance is serio usly affected, for example, a T3 line failure. It prevents data from being reliably transmitt e d across the circuit. When a maj o r alarm is

Troubleshooting

declared, the HDM 2180 mo dule sends a message to the Craft interface and Node Manager (if used), lights the appropriat e LED indicator, and trips the alarm relay (if connected). The following error conditions must persist for at least one second for a major alarm to be declared:

• C-bit Severely Err or e d Seconds (CSES)—A CSES is a second with 44 or more CCVs or one or more Out of Frame defects or a detected incoming AIS.

• P-bit Severely Errored Seconds (PSES)—A PSES is a second with 44 or more PCVs or one or more Out of Frame defects or a detected incoming AIS. This gauge is not increased when UASs are counted.

• Local Unavai la ble Second (LUAS)—An unvailable second during which the local DS3 port is unable to receive or transmit traffic.

• Line Severel y Errored Second ( L SES)—A second during which the port was (at any instance during the second) in the AIS state.

Minor Alarms

The following error conditions do not affect traffic along the DS3 line. They generate a minor alarm:

• Power Supply Missing (in redundant power supply configurations)—This alarm indicates that one of the

redundant power supplies has failed.

• Remote Alarm Indication (RAI)—This alarm indicates t hat the remote end is in a state of alarm. A Remote Alarm or Remote Alarm Indication is the al arm a receiving channel bank or multiplexer sends to the other end of the circuit when it detects a Loss of Signal or Loss of Frame. There is a 2- to 3second integration period upon detection of LOS or LOF before an alarm is sent to the far-end equipment. This condition is also referr e d to as a Ye l l ow Alarm.

• Alarm Indication Signal (AIS)—Using an unframed all-ones bit pattern, an AIS alarm indicates that an alarm conditio n exi s ts upstream in a circuit lead i ng to the downstream equipment. This is also called an All-Ones Keep-Alive or Red Alarm Signal. An AIS defect is declared when there are 3 or fewer zeros in 512 bit times and an LOF defect. It is cleared when there are 3 or more zeros in two frames or the LOF defect no longer exists.

• C-bit Coding Violation (CCV)—An error event that reflects the occurrence of received CP-bit parity errors during the accumulation interval. The CP-bits are not affected by customer-owned equipment and are therefore more accur ate than P-bit parity.

Troubleshooting

• C-bit Errored Second (CES)—A CES is a second with one or more CCVs or one or more Out of Frame (OOF) defects or a detected incoming AIS. This gauge is not increased when UASs are counted.

• Alarm Indication Signal Second (AIS S)—A second when the CSU receives an unframed all-ones alarm indication signal (AIS) from the network.

• Line Coding Violation (LCV)—An LCV error event is a count of both bipolar violations (BPVs) and excessive zeros (EXZs) occurring over the accumulation period. An EXZ increments the LCV by one regardless of the length of the zero string.

• Line Errored Second (LES)—An LES is a second in which one or more LCVs occurred or one or more LOS defects.

• Loss of Sign al Second (LOSS) —A second d uring which t he CSU is in a Loss of Signal (LOS) state.

• P-bit Coding Violation (PCV)—A P-bit parity error event is the occurrence of a rece iv ed P- b it co de on the DS3 M- fram e that is not identical to the corre sponding locally-calculated code.

• P-bit Errored Second (PES)—A PES is a second with one or more P-bit Coding Violations (PCVs) or one or more Out of Frame defects or a detected incoming AIS. This gauge is not increased when Unavailable Seconds (UASs) are counted.
