2.4 MPLS
MPLS is the latest improvement in integrated route/switch solution. With the traffic
engineering and the quality guarantee capability to end-to-end services, MPLS
realizes seamless interworking and provides sufficient OAM capability.
1. End-to-End QoS Guarantee
Multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) Layer 2 VPN realizes mapping layer 2 frames,
such as ATM, Ethernet and PPP frame, into MPLS frame. By building a pseudo wire
through MPLS (see Figure 2-2), the connection-oriented capability of MPLS is
reinforced. Martini MPLS technology is used to ensure the interworking between
multiple physical structures.

Figure 2-2 Building a pseudo wire through MPLS

By adopting MPLS technology, services like layer 2 VPN, layer 3 VPN, traffic
engineering, and differentiated service (DiffServ) can be run in different networks, and
the service provider can be the MPLS-based network that is managed by IP, layer 3
(MPLS/IP), and layer VPN. Quality of service (QoS) can be guaranteed through
intermedia system-intermedia system (IS-IS)/ Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) traffic
engineering, constraint-based routing calculation.
Protection switching is a kind of technology on survivability, which includes protection
switching and reroute. Based on label switching path (LSP), the multi-service
transport platform (MSTP) in Huawei supports various protection schemes including
1+1 and 1:1 with switching time less than 50 ms, realizing carrier-class protection. In
addition, reroute fault recovery technology is provided.
2. Perfect OAM Grooming Capability
The frame format of MPLS OAM is defined by ITU-T Recommendation Y.1711. The
MSTP in Huawei can identify and process the OAM frames like continuity verify (CV),
forward defect indication (FDI), or backward defect indication (BDI).

The resilient packet ring offers two key features: efficient support for ring topology and
fast recovery from fiber cuts and link failures. At the same time, it can provide data
efficiency, simplicity, and cost advantages that are typical to Ethernet. In addition,
resilient packet ring solves problems such as fairness and congestion control.
2.6 ATM Service
The OptiX OSN 1500 provides two kinds of ATM boards: ADL4 and ADQ1. The ADL4
board can access a channel of STM-4 ATM service. The ADQ1 board can access four
channels of STM-1 ATM services. When working together with the PL3/PD3 board,
the ADL4/ADQ1 can access the E3 ATM service. The ADL4 and ADQ1 boards have
the following features:
ADL4 provides an STM-4 interface adopting hot-swappable LC optical module,
and supporting S-4.1 and L-4.1.
ADQ1 provides four STM-1 interfaces, adopting hot-swappable LC optical module,
and supporting Ie-1, S-1.1 and L-1.1.
Support bandwidth sharing and protection of ATM service through constructing
ATM VP-Ring at STM-1/STM-4 level.
Support ATM protection switching (APS) based on ATM Forum I.630.
Support OAM functions: loop back (LB) and continuity check (CC), which comply
with ATM Forum I.610.
Support mapping modes VC-3, VC-4 or VC-4-Xv (X=14).
Support the uplink bandwidth of up to 8 VC-4s or 12 VC-3s + 4 VC-4s.
Support 1.25 G ATM switching capacity, VP switching, VC switching, 8 k links,
space multi-cast, and logic multi-cast.
Support CBR, rt-VBR, nrt-VBR and UBR, and QoS class based on ATM Forum
RFC2514.
2.7 SAN and Video Services
With the increase of requirements such as data backup and disaster recovery backup,
it is required to connect the storage area network (SAN) of each area to be transmitted
in the WAN. Also, the SAN service is required to be transmitted over a longer distance.
The OptiX OSN 1500 provides MST and LMST boards to access and transparently
transmit SAN services. It supports FC50, FC100/FICON, FC200 and ESCON. FC100
and FC200 also provide distance extension function to meet the requirement of SAN
transmission. The MST4 and LMST4 boards also support DVB-ASI video service and
GE service.
2.8 Built-in WDM Technology
The OptiX OSN 1500 is enclosed with the WDM technology, provided by board MR2B.
Each MR2B board can add/drop any two adjacent fixed wavelengths. When
cascading two MR2B boards, they can add/drop four wavelengths. The MR2B board
should be used together with a rate-independent wavelength conversion board (LWX)
in an OADM station where two wavelengths are added/dropped.

2.13 Networking Mode and Network Protection
The OptiX OSN 1500 is a multi add/drop multiplexer (MADM) system. It can provide a
processing capacity for up to 20 embedded control channels (ECCs). It supports the
complicated network topologies at STM-1/STM-4/STM-16 level, such as chain, ring,
hub, ring with chain, tangent rings and intersection rings.
In terms of the network level protection, the OptiX OSN 1500 supports
four-fiber/two-fiber multiplex section protection (MSP) ring, linear MSP, shared optical
path virtual trail protection and sub-network connection protection (SNCP). Table 2-5
shows the maximum number of MSP rings supported by the OptiX OSN 1500. At one
time, the OptiX OSN 1500 only supports one protection scheme in the following table.

2.14 Squelching Function in Multiplex Section
Each protection time slot in multiplex section protection ring is shared by traffic from
different segments or occupied by extra traffic. With no extra traffic in the ring, and
under the situation that a certain node is isolated because of multiple points failure,
traffic from different segments of the same time slot may contend for the same
protection channel time slot. This brings misconnection of traffic. With extra traffic in
the ring, and even under the situation of a single nodes failure, traffic from working
channel may contend for the time slot of protection channel carrying extra traffic. This
also brings misconnection.
To prevent misconnection, every node of the OptiX OSN 1500 has a detailed
connection table. Every node knows the source point and endpoint of each AU-4,
which can tell the potential misconnection in advance with combination of APS
command. Traffic with the potentiality of misconnection is discarded through inserting
AU_AIS.
The OptiX OSN 1500 supports the function of squelching misconnected VC-4 traffic.

4 Intelligent Features
To help our customers have an overall understanding of the intelligent optical network,
this chapter introduces the intelligent features and applications of the OptiX OSN
1500.
4.1 Intelligent Features

The OptiX OSN 1500 provides a set of stand-alone intelligent software system which
is quite convenient and flexible in use in dynamic bandwidth allocation, intelligent
route finding and configuration of services. The bandwidth availability using the OptiX
OSN 1500 is improved.
The OptiX OSN 1500 allows the following functions:
Supports service level agreement (SLA).
Supports automatically configure the end-to-end service.
Provides traffic engineering control to guarantee the load-balance traffic network
wide and improve the bandwidth availability.

4.2 Intelligent Service Request
The optical network is evolving from an integrated network providing transmission
paths only to a service operation network. The intelligent feature provides users with
various high-quality bandwidth applications and services: lease and wholesale
bandwidth, bandwidth business, traffic engineering, SLA.
4.2.1 SLA Service
1. Classification Principle of SLA Service
The SLA service can be classified into multiple levels in terms of protection (service
with high level, service with medium level, re-routed service, non-protected service
and extra service, and so on). Charges for services at different levels are different,
thus demands of different users can be satisfied flexibly. Principle for classifying
services is as follows:
Service priority: Provided with 1+1 protection or alike, with the switching time of
020 ms.
Service priority: Provided with M:N protection and alike (for example, two-fiber
MSP), with the switching time of 050 ms.
Re-routed service: Real-time re-calculates the path, with the switching time from
100 ms to several seconds.
Non-protected service: Provided with no protection at fault occurrence.
Extra service: Pre-empted by services with higher priorities when the network
resource is insufficient.
2. SLA-Based Protection at Different Service Levels
With the SLA service provided, the OptiX OSN 1500 enables the operators to win
more customers in a differential market with better service and lower cost.
Table 4-1 Differential protection for service at different levels
Service level Protection level Service quality
Diamond High level protection
Gold Medium level protection
Silver Re-routing protection
Copper Not protected
Iron Redundant
The quality of services listed in the
left column grows higher from
bottom to top.

Service of diamond level is to meet demands of users such as banks, securities,
important government offices, and so on. Service of gold level is to satisfy the
demands for speech, multimedia and video. Service of silver level is applicable to
common data service transmission. Services of copper and iron levels are suitable for
applications such as family network access.
As shown in Figure 4-1, for the service of diamond level, a path ring (dotted line) is
defined first for an end-to-end protected service (dual-fed and signal selection) of one
pair of access equipments. The figure shows the unidirectional service. The
bidirectional service is similar. In normal conditions, the receiving end receives service
OptiX OSN 1500
Technical Manual - System Description Error! Style not defined.Error! Style not defined.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary
4-3
from the upper dot line side. When a failure occurs to the link or node, the service will
be switched to the lower dot line side for receiving.
You can also select not to pre-define the path ring, but to calculate two end-to-end
paths (which are not intersecting) from the edge service access node of the optical
network. In such a case, the service is dual fed at the head end and selectively
received at the tail end, thus guaranteeing the service of diamond level.
The source node sends the dual
traffic on rings
The receive node
selects the traffic

Figure 4-1 Networking protection for service of diamond level

For service of gold level, the logical virtual MS ring must be pre-defined. As shown in
Figure 4-2, the bandwidth of Ring 1, Ring 2 and virtual ring are specified as the user
demands. They can be part of the maximum bandwidth of the optical fiber. Half
timeslots of the MS ring are used to protect another half timeslots. To provide service
with medium level with M: N protection, the edge service access node of the optical
network calculates which the respective link of the service trail belongs to. By doing so,
a rapid MSP switching can be guaranteed at any link or node failure on the service
path. As shown in Figure 4-2, all links of the end-to-end service path belong to either
Ring 1 or Ring 2. If one node fails, as shown in the figure, service on Ring 2 can be
switched to the protection path of the ring rapidly.
Ring1
Protection path of the ring
Ring2

Figure 4-2 Protection for service of gold level

Service of silver level refers to the service with path re-calculated on the real-time
converged topology at failure occurrence. As the network convergence is
OptiX OSN 1500
Technical Manual - System Description Error! Style not defined.Error! Style not defined.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary
4-4
time-consuming, the service damaging or interruption time in re-routing is longer than
the switching time for the above two services.
Compared with the two services described above, the advantage of the silver service
lies in that it does not need bandwidth reservation for recovery, thus much improving
the bandwidth availability. As shown in Figure 4-3, when the service link fails, a new
path will be found out to recover the service.
There are two modes for re-routing: revertive and non-revertive. If the service is
restored to the original path when the fault is removed, it is in revertive mode; if not, it
is in non-revertive mode.
Re-calculated path

Figure 4-3 Application of silver level

Provision of multiple-leveled services inherits merit of fast protection switching of the
SDH ring network on the one hand, and takes fully advantages of bandwidth
availability of the mesh network on the other hand.
4.2.2 Automatic End-to-End Service Configuration
The end-to-end service can be rapidly generated and protected by some simple
operations listed below through the NM.
Select source node.
Select destination node.
Select desired bandwidth.
Select service level.
Auto-establish service connection.
4.2.3 Mesh Networking
Compared with the ring network, the mesh network takes advantages of bandwidth
availability, network scalability, and survivability. This network topology is suitable for
the area with large and evenly distributed traffic. Mesh network achieves a higher
reliability because there are multiple routes available between two nodes. This
effectively protects the traffic against node congestion and node failure. The one
shown in Figure 4-3 is a mesh networking configuration.

5.1.2 1+1 Hot Backup for the SCC Unit, Cross-Connect Unit and Timing Unit
For the OptiX OSN 1500, the functions of the SCC unit, cross-connect unit, timing unit
and line unit are integrated into one board. There are three kinds of such integrated
boards: CXL16, CXL4 and CXL1, which are provided with the following features:
1+1 hot backup protection.
The standby unit is in standby mode when the equipment operates normally. The
standby unit does not control the equipment, perform cross connection to service,
or provide clock to the system. But its cross-connect matrix setting and clock
configuration are exactly the same as those of the active one.
When the standby unit receives the information indicating abnormal performance
of the active one or a switching command is sent by the NM system, they will
immediately take over the job of the active unit, setting itself into active working
mode and sending out a switching alarm.
5.1.3 1+1 Hot Backup for the Power Input Unit
Through the two PIU boards, the OptiX OSN 1500 can access two 48 V DC working
power supplies that work in backup mode. If either of them goes faulty, the other will
operate to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.
5.1.4 1:N Protection for the +3.3 V Board Power Supply
The OptiX OSN 1500 provides 1:N power backup for the +3.3 V power supplies of
other boards through the power backup unit of the AUX board. When the power
supply of a board becomes faulty, the backup power will take over the power feeding
job to ensure normal operation of that board.
5.1.5 Abnormality-Specific Service Protection
1. Power Failure in Software Loading Process
Application program and data have the check function. In the case the loading is
interrupted, the basic input/output system (BIOS) will not start the unfinished program
and data until they are successfully loaded.
2. Over-Voltage and Under-Voltage Protection
The power board is designed with a lightning protection component to effectively
reduce the damages that may be possibly caused by transient high-voltage such as
lightning. When the voltage is over low, this board will automatically reset the center
processing unit (CPU) and the software will re-initialize the chips. The software will
provide a mirror protection for important memories that may affect the services. In the
case the voltage is not stable, which causes the memory value to change, the values
can be recovered to normal. In addition, when the voltage is too low, the power system
will automatically cut off the active power to protect the system.
3. Board Temperature Check
Temperature detection circuit is provided on the boards that generate much heat.
When the ambient temperature detected is too high, an alarm is generated to remind
the maintenance personnel to clean the fans.

5.2 Network Level Protection
5.2.1 SDH Trail Protection
The OptiX OSN 1500 can implement the linear MSP and the MSP ring.
1. Linear MSP
Linear MSP is mainly used in the chain network. The OptiX OSN 1500 supports 1+1
and 1:N (N14) protection schemes. In the 1:N protection mode, extra services are
supported to be transmitted on the protection system. In the linear MSP scheme, the
switching time is less than 50 ms as specified in ITU-T Recommendation G.841.
2. MSP Ring
The OptiX OSN 1500 supports two-fiber MS shared protection ring, with the switching
time less than 50 ms, as specified in ITU-T Recommendation G.841.
In line with ITU-T Recommendation G.841, the OptiX OSN 1500 supports four-fiber
MS shared protection ring, which provides ring switching and span switching in
addition to the similar functions of the two-fiber bidirectional MSP.
5.2.2 SDH SNCP
The OptiX OSN 1500 supports SNCP as required by ITU-T Recommendation G.841.
Even multiple service switching events occur at the same time, the switching time can
still be less than 50 ms.
5.2.3 Protection for Interworking Service on Rings
As required by ITU-T Recommendation G.841, the OptiX OSN 1500 supports
protection for interworking services in rings, even in the rings with different protection
schemes (such as SNCP or MSP).

As shown in Figure 5-1, in the fiber-shared virtual path protection, one STM-16,
STM-4, or even STM-1 optical path is logically divided into lower-order or higher-order
paths, which are then combined with other links to form the path-level rings. The
path-level rings can be set with protection schemes such as path protection (PP), MSP,
SNCP, and no protection (NP).

5.2.5 MS-Shared Optical Path Protection
In the MS-shared optical path protection, an optical interface can be configured with
multiple MSP groups, so that MSP rings can share the same fiber and optical interface.
This function is conditioned on the optical boards capability of processing multiple
sets of independent K bytes. SL16 of the OptiX OSN 1500 support a maximum of two
shared optical paths.

5.2.6 Resilient Packet Ring Protection
A bi-directional resilient packet ring is shown in Figure 5-5. The basic advantage of an
Ethernet ring is that each node can assume that a packet sent on the ring will
eventually reach its destination node regardless of which path around the ring has
taken. Since the nodes have only three basic packet-handling actions: insertion
(adding a packet into the ring), forwarding (sending the packet onward), and stripping
(taking the packet off the ring). This reduces the amount of work individual nodes have
to do to communicate with each other, especially as compared with mesh networking
where each node has to make a forwarding decision about which exit port to use for
each packet.

Resilient packet ring can initiate a ring wrap at the nodes surrounding the cut (see
Figure 5-6) or packet steering by causing the sending node to redirect packets. In
either case, traffic can reach the original destination by going around the ring in the
opposite direction in the event of a fiber cut. The switching time can still be less than
50ms.

6.2 Application of Ethernet Service
The OptiX OSN 1500 integrates the access of Ethernet services on the SDH
transmission platform, so it can transmit both the voice service and data service.
6.2.1 Point-to-Point Transparent Transmission
As shown in Figure 6-1, the Ethernet services of different NEs are transmitted to the
destination node through their respective VC Trunks. The Ethernet service is provided
with a perfect SDH self-healing ring (SHR) protection scheme, its reliable transmission
is guaranteed.

6.2.2 Service Convergence
As shown in Figure 6-2, flow classification is performed for the Ethernet service
according to the port and VLAN ID to distinguish different VLANs of Company A and B.
Up to eight IEEE802.1P-compliant priorities can be set according to the flow
classification result. For security purpose, the OptiX OSN 1500 isolates services of
different users by VLAN. In the figure below, VLAN 1 of Company A shares a VC
Trunk with VLAN 1 of Company B, VLAN 2 of Company A shares a VC Trunk with
VLAN 2 of Company B, and VLAN 3 of Company A shares a VC Trunk with VLAN 3 of
Company B.
All services of Company A are converged to NE1 and output from an FE/GE interface
to a Lanswitch for processing.

6.2.3 Layer 2 switching
The OptiX OSN 1500 supports Layer 2 switching of the accessed Ethernet data,
which can be transferred according to their destination media access control (MAC)
addresses.
As shown in Figure 6-3, respective LANs of Company A and B are connected to four
NEs. The Ethernet service between the NEs is not of a fixed point-to-point type. For
example, a user of Company A connecting to NE3 may want to communicate with
users of Company A connecting to other three NEs. That is, the flow direction of
services is not definite. The Ethernet Layer 2 switching function provided by the OptiX
OSN 1500 can be employed to solve such a problem. For example, an Ethernet MAC
address transfer table will be formed in the system when the relevant settings are
made to NE3. The system can learn to periodically update the table. Then, the data of
Company A and B accessed at NE3 will be transmitted to their destinations over
different VC Trunks selected according to their MAC transfer table or over the same
VC Trunk.
In this way, the system configuration is significantly simplified and the bandwidth utility
is improved. In addition, the corresponding maintenance and management becomes
convenient for the operator.

6.2.4 EVPL Service
The OptiX OSN 1500 adopts the Martini modes to construct the multi-protocol label
switching (MPLS) Layer 2 VPN and provide EVPL service.
The EVPL service offers point-to-point connection and implements service
convergence for users. As shown in Figure 6-4, the system will search the Port + Vlan
ID table for the external label (tunnel) and internal label (VC), and add them to the
accessed Ethernet frames. Data transfer in the network is based on the external label,
which will be discarded at the provider (P) Routers equipment at the last hop. Then,
the data will be transmitted to the corresponding provider edges (PE) equipment,
which transfers the data to the corresponding port according to the internal label. The
OptiX OSN 1500 integrates the function of P equipment and PE equipment.

The OptiX OSN 1500 adopts the Martini MPLS Layer 2 VPN encapsulation format to
support the Ethernet virtual private LAN EVPLAN) service.
EVPLAN service implements the multipoint-to-multipoint connection of user sites.
Users regard the EVPLAN network as a big VLAN where the user service can be
converged. As shown in Figure 6-5, when the users Ethernet frame (the source
address is MAC H, and the destination address is MAC A, B or C) enters the PE
equipment, the system will search the Layer 2 transfer table for the internal label (VC
label). Then, the frame is transferred to the corresponding tunnel, where it is attached
with the external label (tunnel label). Thus, different label switch paths (LSPs) are set
up according to different addresses. The Ethernet frame is detached of the Tunnel
Label when leaving the P equipment, and then transferred to the corresponding PE
equipment, where the VC Label is detached. After that, the Ethernet frame is
transferred to the corresponding output port according to the Layer 2 MAC transfer
table.
