Release 8.0 Warranty Information Software and Hardware Limited Warranties Lucent Technologies provides a 90-day limited software warranty, and a one- year limited hardware warranty on this product. Refer to the Software License and Limited Warranty Agreement and the Lucent Technologies InterNetworking Sys- tems Global Warranty that accompanied your package for more information. Warranty Warnings ! CAUTION: Modifying or tampering with PSAX chassis components may void your warranty. Any modification to this equipment not expressly authorized by Lucent Technologies may void your granted authority to operate such equipment. ! CAUTION: When inserting modules into the chassis, slide them gently, not force- fully. Excessive force may cause the modules to be seated improperly in the chassis, and result in possible damage to the module or the chassis. Install or remove modules one at a time. Doing this aids in preventing the PSAX system from indicating any erroneous failure messages, and allows the PSAX system to reinitialize and display the accurate configu- ration of the module that is inserted. ! CAUTION: Shipping the chassis with removable I/O, server, or CPU modules installed may cause damage to the chassis and the modules. Damage to any of the components in the system resulting from shipping the chassis with removable modules installed will void your warranty. Only Lucent- authorized personnel should ship the PSAX chassis with a module installed.

Release 8.0 255-700-262 2-1 2 Module Description Overview of This Module The 21-Port High-Density E1 Multiservice module (see Figure 2-1) provides 21 ports, each with a line rate of 2.048 Mbps. The interfaces support ITU-T G.703 and ITU G.704. Each port can be independently configured to provide services for channelized and unchannelized frame relay configurations, circuit emulation service, and ATM service. This module has two types of light-emitting diode (LED) indicators: FAIL and ACTIVE. Figure 2-1. 21-Port High-Density Multiservice E1 Module ACTIVE HD E1 FAIL PORTS 13-21 PORTS 1-12

Chapter 2 Module Description

Connection Options 2-2 255-700-262 PacketStar® PSAX 21-Port High-Density E1 Multiservice Module User Guide, Issue 1 Release 8.0 Configured for channelized E1 service, the 21-Port High-Density E1 Multiservice module maps up to 31 individual high level data links (HDLC) on a single E1 connection (180 HDLC data links per module). This module provides a data service unit (DSU)/channel service unit (CSU) for each port in order to configure individual channels. The module has a built-in CSU capability, which allows it to interface directly to an E1 line with multiple repeaters. This feature allows the module to interface with a time-division multiplex (TDM) channelized E1 circuit. You can configure the 21-Port High-Density E1 Multiservice module to provide N x 64 Kbps (fractional E1) structured circuit emulation service. When configured for E1 circuit emulation service, the module interfaces with TDM channelized E1 circuits. It converts channelized data (usually voice data) to ATM virtual channels. This module can adapt a maximum of 31channels per port to ATM virtual channels with individual virtual path identifiers (VPIs) and virtual channel identifiers (VCIs), using structured (channelized) circuit emulation. Signaling bit transport from time slot 16 is also provided, based on ATM Forum standards for channel-associated signaling (CAS). With the 64 Kbps "clear channel" capability, this module can connect to a device using an integrated services digital network with a primary rate interface (ISDN PRI) service. Because this structured circuit emulation service can be configured to use only a fraction of the time slots, you can configure several independent emulated circuits to share one service interface. The 21-Port High-Density E1 Multiservice module uses ATM Forum Specification UNI 3.0 or UNI 3.1, which allows any E1 port to act as a user network interface (UNI), an interim inter-switch protocol (IISP) user or network interface to an ATM network. Connection Options The 21-Port High-Density E1 Multiservice module connects to user equipment via a standard 10-foot Lucent cable (COMCODE 300550639) with an RJ-48H connector. Typically, this cable is used to connect the module to one of the following patch panels within the same or an adjacent Telco frame: • PSAX 12-Port BNC Patch Panel (impedance 75 ohms) • PSAX 24-Port RJ Patch Panel (impedance 120 ohms) • PSAX 48-Port RJ Patch Panel (impedance 120 ohms) The PSAX 24-Port RJ Patch Panel uses ports 1–21 (ports 22-24 are not used). The PSAX 48-Port RJ Patch Panel uses ports 1–21 and 25–45 (ports 22–24 and 46–48 are not used). The Lucent cable can be extended for short-haul links of up to 500 feet (with 5 dB cable loss) by connecting the Lucent cable to an Avaya cable (p/n 1010025AGY CUSTL, at -1 dB per 100 feet), or equivalent. Use RJ-48H connectors (for example, Cinch p/n 57-10500-271A and Cinch p/n 57-20500-7A) on the extension cable to link the Lucent cable to the PSAX Patch Panels.

Note: For a matrix of interface types by PSAX I/O module types, see the Interface Types by I/O Module Types table in the appendix, “Refer- ence Information.” Avoiding Common Errors When Configuring Interfaces An error may occur when you apply an interface to channel. If an error con- dition occurs, the PSAX system sends an SNMP trap that is usually displayed in the console Trap Log Display window (accessible from the Console Inter- face Main Menu window). The list below includes the most common inter- face errors that cause the PSAX system to display a message. (See the appen- dix, “SNMP Trap Messages,” in the appropriate PacketStar PSAX Multiservice Media Gateways user guide for more information about the SNMP traps related to interface errors).

Optimizing SVC Call Performance 4-2 255-700-262 PacketStar® PSAX 21-Port High-Density E1 Multiservice Module User Guide, Issue 1 Release 8.0 • Entering field values that are outside of the configurable range of values • Attempting to configure an interface for a port or channel that has already been configured • Attempting to configure an interface that is already in service (must be out of service to be configured or change field values) • Entering field values that are not recognized by the PSAX system software Optimizing SVC Call Performance The information in this section provides guidance on optimizing call perfor- mance when configuring SVCs on the PNNI interface. The service-specific connection-oriented protocol (SSCOP) parameter is set on these interface configuration windows: ATM IISP network or IISP user, ATM UNI 3.0 or UNI 3.1, or ATM PNNI 1.0. Note: These settings are suggested for connecting to a PSAX system from a remote site only. The PSAX system configures these settings internally in its own ATM switch. When unacknowledged protocol data units (PDUs), the MaxPD field on the remote end peer (such as the NavisCore™ CBX 500™) shows the maximum number of SSCOP packets transmitted since the last PSAX polling of the peer. To optimize call performance, the SSCOP Rx Window Size field of the local ATM interface should be less than the maximum value displayed in the MaxPD credit window at the remote end of the ATM interface. Otherwise, the rate at which switched calls can be set and released may be degraded. On the ATM IISP Interface Configuration window, the maximum credit win- dow (the SSCOP Rx Window Size field) is configurable with a value up to 32 for all ATM interfaces on the PSAX system. The interfaces of the ATM switches that are connected to the PSAX system should be configured with the same values. This method results in 100 percent call completion at a call setup rate of 60 calls per second using even distribution. If these values are not configured in this way, calls will be set up at a rate of less than 60 calls per second. Note: Various SSCOP parameter settings determine the maximum credit window. As a result, you may not be able to directly use these set- tings. For more information on the SSCOP parameter, see the Application Note entitled Connecting a CBX or GX Switch to a PacketStar® PSAX Multiservice Media Gateway via an ATM Port, Document No. 255-700-236.

Release 8.0 Chapter 4 Configuring the Interfaces Using the Console Interface Managing ATM IISP User and Network Interfaces dard, pending completion of PNNI, Phase 1. Building on ATM UNI 3.0 and 3.1, it uses static routing tables established by the network administrator to route connections around link failures. Each connection using the IISP interface is configurable as either the user side or the network side. See the Field Description Table following the ATM IISP Interface Configuration window for VPI and VCI connection limits. This section provides instructions for managing interfaces by performing the following tasks: • Configuring and applying interface(s) • Bringing interface(s) into service • Taking interface(s) out of service • Viewing interface(s) • Deleting interface(s) • Viewing interface statistics Configuring and Viewing the ATM IISP Interfaces Begin At the conclusion of the module port and channel configuration proce- dure, you accessed the ATM IISP Interface Configuration window (see Figure 4-1). 1 Select the values for the fields on the window in Figure 4-1 from the val- ues given in Table 4-1. Table 1-1 describes the commands on the win- dow. 2 To apply the interface values you selected, select the Apply interface Configuration command. 3 If your configuration requires you to bring the interface into service at this time, do so by selecting the Bring Interface Into Service com- mand. For more information on other configuration windows on which you can bring interfaces into service, see the “Bringing One or More ATM IISP Interfaces into Service” procedure in this guide. Note: The interface must have in-service status so that the PVC and SVC connections you will set up to use this interface will pass traffic. End

Perform the following procedures in the sequence shown to replace an ATM IISP interface that has parameters you do not want. 1 On the Equipment Configuration window, select the module for which you want to replace an interface. 2 Select the port and channel for the interface you want to replace. 3 View the parameters of the interface you do not want to be sure you are choosing the right one. See the procedure in the section, “Viewing the Parameters for an ATM IISP Interface.” 4 Take the interface out of service. See the procedure in the section, “Tak- ing One or More ATM IISP Interfaces out of Service.” Note: After you perform this procedure, the traffic flow on the connec- tion using the interface is stopped. 5 Delete the interface. See the procedure in the section, “Deleting One or More ATM IISP Interfaces.” Note: After you perform this procedure, the connection using the interface is automatically deleted from the Connections database. 6 Configure a new interface. See the procedure in the section, “Configur- ing an ATM IISP Interface.” 7 Bring the newly configured interface into service. See the procedure in the section, “Bringing One or More ATM IISP interfaces into Service.” Note: You now need to provision a new connection using the newly configured interface for the same specified port and channel for which you deleted the original interface (and connection).

Managing ATM PNNI Interfaces 4-22 255-700-262 PacketStar® PSAX 21-Port High-Density E1 Multiservice Module User Guide, Issue 1 Release 8.0 Traffic Shaping Default: Disabled Range: N/A Format: Predefined Indicates whether traffic shaping is used on this interface. Traffic shaping is an input cell selection algorithm (leaky bucket) that smooths bursts of input traffic. This feature is available only on these modules: • OC-12c/STM-4c 1+1 APS/MSP • OC-3c Multimode and Single-Mode • STM-1 Multimode and Single-Mode Note: This feature must be enabled if using rate shaping on the OC-3c APS or the STM-1 MSP modules prior to egress from an ATM trunk port. Rate shaping is not available on the OC-12c/STM-4c modules. Disabled Disables the feature on this interface. Enabled Enables the feature on this interface. Note: Do not enable the Traffic Shaping feature and the UPC Support feature for the same con- nection. Your configuration will be rejected. UBR Load Balanc- ing Default: Disabled Range: N/A Format: Predefined Specifies whether UBR Load Balancing is to be used on this interface. Load balancing is per- formed according to traffic conditions, which determines how the available bandwidth on indi- vidual channels is used for path and route selec- tion. After a channel is saturated, the transmit load is distributed (balanced) among other avail- able links (channels) having the same origin, des- tination, and parameters. Channels with the highest available bandwidth values are filled first, followed by the lower capacity channels. Note: Virtual interfaces do not support UBR Load Balancing. Disabled Disables UBR load balancing on the channels supported by this interface. Enabled Enables UBR load balancing on this interface. Selecting this value includes UBR in the cps counts of the [Egress Avail BW] field. Table 4-5. Field Descriptions for the ATM PNNI Interface Configuration Window Field Name Field Values Description

Release 8.0 Chapter 4 Configuring the Interfaces Using the Console Interface Managing ATM PNNI Interfaces SSCOP Rx Wnd Size Default: 32 Range: 8–32 Format: Packets Indicates the service-specific connection-ori- ented protocol (SSCOP) layer receive window size. This window shows the total number of packets that must be acknowledged by the receiv- ing side before more packets are sent from the transmitting side. On the receiving side, values must be equal to or greater than the values for the transmit side for fastest transmission rates. Note: These settings are suggested for connecting to a Multiservice Media Gateway from a remote site only. The Multiservice Media Gateway con- figures these settings internally in its own ATM switch. For more information on this field, see the Appli- cation Note titled Connecting a CBX or GX Switch to a PacketStar® PSAX Multiservice Media Gateway Via an ATM Port, Issue 2, Document No. 255-700-236. [PNNI Signaling] (display only) Default: Enabled Range: N/A Format: Predefined Enables ATM signaling over a PNNI link that sets up and tears down SVCs. Enabled Enables ATM signaling over a PNNI link. Disabled Disables ATM signaling over a PNNI link. [VPI/VCI Signaling Channel] (display only) Default: 0/5 Range: 0–4095 Format: Numeric Displays the virtual path/virtual channel identi- fier for SVC signaling that carries the call setup and teardown data. [Remote Min/Max SVC VPI] (display only) Default: 0/0 Range: 0–4095 Format: Numeric Indicates the minimum (lower) and maximum (upper) boundary of the VPI for SVC connections for the remote side. [Remote Min/Max SVC VCI] (display only) Default: 32/65535 Range: 32–65535 Format: Numeric Displays the minimum (lower) and maximum (upper) boundary of the VCI for SVC connections for the remote side. [Port Id] (display only) Default: 201001 Range: Chassis dependent Format: Numeric Displays the interface port identifier, a point of attachment of a logical link to a given logical node. This is automatically generated based on the location (slot, port, channel) of the interface. A value of 0 indicates that no port has been spec- ified. Table 4-5.

For example, if there are 3 physical links between two chassis, the user can set the aggregation token to the same value on each interface (both sides). This makes the aggregated links appear to the rest of the network as one logical link. [Traffic Descriptor] (display only) Default: 0 Range: N/A Format: Predefined This field is not currently supported. Displays the traffic descriptor index,an entry in the atmTrafficDescrParamTable defined in RFC 1695 that specifies the traffic allocation for the PNNI routing control channel (VCI=18) on this interface. VP Capability Default: True Range: N/A Format: Predefined Indicates whether the interface is capable of hav- ing virtual path connections (VPCs) established within it. True The interface is capable of having VPCs estab- lished within it. False The interface cannot have VPCs established within it. [Service Category] (display only) Default: NrtVbr Range: N/A Format: Predefined Indicates a quality of service class type. The speed and quality of transmission depends on the class- choice made. The higher the class, the higher the guarantee that the packets will get to their desti- nation on time. Cbr is the highest class, and Ubr is the lowest. NrtVbr Non-realtime variable bit rate service. Cbr Constant bit rate service. RtVbr Real-time variable bit rate service. Abr Available bit rate service. Ubr Unspecified bit rate service. [Admin Status] (display only) Default: OutOfService Range: N/A Format: Predefined Indicates whether the interface is configurable to carry connections or not. OutOfService Indicates that some condition is preventing the port from being configured with an interface. InService Indicates that no conditions are preventing the port from being fully operational.

OutOfService Indicates that the configured interface is not operational. InService Indicates that the configured interface is opera- tional. [Ingress Avail BW] (display only) Default: 0 Range: User-configured Format: cps Displays the total ingress bandwidth available for connections for this interface. The value 0 is changed to the cps count available for the inter- face after the Apply command is selected. The ingress available bandwidth depends on the con- figured module parameters, such as port strap- ping, type of cell mapping, configured port speed, and other factors. As each new connection is added, the amount of available bandwidth as indicated in this field may decrease. Bandwidth for UBR connections is not included, unless the UBR Load Balancing field on this interface is Enabled. You will see values in the [Ingress Avail BW] field only for connections that are in service. • Any non-CES OC3 and STM-1 APS module will show the value 353207 • Any OC-12 module will show the value 1412830 The values for other types of I/O modules that use this field vary depending on the following parameters : • IMA - number of ports configured • DS1/E1/STS-1e - number of channels strapped • DS3/E3 - Cell Mapping (Plcp or DirectMap- ping) • Serial - port bandwidth configured Table 4-5.
