Installation and Commissioning Process

This topic describes the processes for installing and commissioning the single-server system
(Windows) as well the time required for every operation.
Usually, the server delivered by Huawei has been preinstalled and you do not need to reinstall
the U2000 on the server. You can directly commission the U2000 and modify the system and
U2000 parameters according to on-site requirements to allow for the normal use of the
U2000.
If the server has not been preinstalled by Huawei, install the U2000 and commission the
system. A series of parameters need to be modified during commissioning. You must ensure
that on-site parameters have been planned based on the U2000 Planning Guide before
commissioning is performed. Figure 2-1 shows the installation commissioning process.

3.3 Configuring the iMana IP Address of Huawei server


The iMana is integrated with the Huawei RH series rack server. It is used to remotely manage
the server. IP address of the iMana can be used to remotely log in to a PC server to manage
and maintain PC server in Web mode. For example, you can use this IP address for remote OS
installation, or use it to maintain the PC server if the OS fails to start properly. Two modes of
configuring the iMana IP address are available: through iMana management interface and
through BIOS.
If a server is not equipped with the KVM, the mode through iMana management interface is
recommended.
l

Through iMana management interface:

Advantage: The Huawei RH series rack server does not need to be equipped with a
monitor, mouse, or keyboard. Fewer operations are required, compared with the
mode of using BIOS.

Disadvantage: The Internet Explorer may shut down automatically or not respond.
The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:
i.

Right-click the Internet Explorer icon on the taskbar to close the Internet
Explorer. If the Internet Explorer is still open, stop the iexplore.exe process on
the Processes tab page in the Task Manager.

ii.

Open the Internet Explorer.

Through BIOS:

Advantage: No abnormality will occur if operations are performed correctly.

Disadvantage: The Huawei RH series rack server must be equipped with a monitor,
mouse, and keyboard. More operations are required, compared with the mode of
using the iMana management interface.

NOTE

l For more operations on the Huawei RH5885H V3 server, log in to the server's official website at
http://support.huawei.com/enterprise/productsupport?

3.3.1 Configuring the iMana IP Address Through iMana


Management Interface
After an iMana IP address is set for a Huawei RH series rack server, you can remotely
manage the server in Web mode. This topic describes how to configure the iMana IP address
through iMana management interface.

Prerequisites
l

A PC or laptop on which the Internet Explorer browser is installed is ready.

The version of the Internet Explorer browser must be 7.0, 8.0, or 9.0 and the Internet
Explorer cannot be configured with a proxy server.

A network cable is available. As network interfaces on a Huawei RH series rack server


are enabled with auto-negotiation, either parallel or crossover network cables can be
used.
NOTE

If an IE or Remote Virtual Console fault occurs in the iMana, see A.2.4 How to Solve iMana
Problems to rectify the fault.

Context
l

The system allows a maximum of four users to log in concurrently, one user to use the
Remote Control function at a time.

By default, the system timeout period is five minutes. That is, if you do not perform any
operation on the Web UI within five minutes, you are logged out of the Web UI of the
system automatically. In this case, you need to enter the user name and password to log
in again.

The system locks a user if the user fails to enter a correct password for consecutive five
times. The user is automatically unlocked five minutes later, and the administrator user
can unlock the user in command line.

To ensure system security, change the initial password after the first login, and then
change your password periodically.

Procedure
Step 1 View the position of the iMana interface on the Huawei RH series rack server.
A management network port for iMana is at the end of the Huawei RH series rack server. You
can visit iMana through this port, as shown in the following figure.

3.5 Configuring the RAID


The RAID needs to be configured before an operating system is installed in order to improve
the efficiency and security of using server hard disks.
RAID is a technology used to combine multiple independent physical hard disks in various
modes to form logical hard disk groups. A logical hard disk group provides storage capacity
greater than that of a single hard disk and allows implementation of data redundancy
protection.

3.5.3 Configuring RAID in Remote Mode (IBM X3850 X5 and IBM


X3650 M3, ISO)
This topic describes how to configure the RAID of IBM X3850 X5 and IBM X3650 M3 in
remote mode.

Prerequisites
l

A PC or laptop on which the Internet Explorer browser is installed is ready.

The version of the Internet Explorer browser must be 7.0, 8.0, or 9.0 and the Internet
Explorer cannot be configured with a proxy server.

The IP address of the IMM is available. For details about how to set the IP address of the
IMM, see 3.4.2 Configuring the IMM IP Address Through IMM Management
Interface (IBM X3850 X5 and IBM X3650 M3).

ISO mirroring file of the quick RAID configuration DVD


Win_server_raid_x64_for_IBM_dvd.iso must be ready.

Ensure that eight hard disks of the server are available. Otherwise, RAID configuration
fails. For details, see A.3.10 Viewing Hard Disk Informationin Remote Mode (IBM

Context
RAID is a technology used to combine multiple independent physical hard disks in various
modes to form logical hard disk groups. A logical hard disk group provides storage capacity
greater than that of a single hard disk and allows implementation of data redundancy
protection.
The standard IBM server for delivery is equipped with eight hard disks. The RAID level
planning and partition rules are as follows:
Configure RAID 10+Hotspare (hot standby)
l

The first, second, third, and fourth hard disks are configured as RAID 10.

The fifth and sixth hard disks act as the hot spare disks, and the remaining seventh and
eighth hard disks for backup.

NOTICE
l Open one Video Viewer window on a PC or laptop. Open the Video Viewer window on a
PC or laptop for each server when you operate multiple servers. Otherwise, the failure to
open multiple Video Viewer windows on a PC or laptop or the failure that the Video
Viewer window does not respond may occur.
l If an Internet Explorer or Video Viewer fault occurs in the IMM, see A.3.7 How to Solve
IMM Problems to rectify the fault.
NOTE

l Using ISO mirroring file of the quick RAID to configure a RAID is recommended because it
improves the configuration efficiency and reduces misoperations.
l The operation snapshots in this topic vary according to the IBM WebBIOS versions and do not
affect the RAID configuration. During the RAID configuration, use actual snapshots.
l If no window is displayed after you click a button during the configuration, move the mouse and try
again.

Procedure
Step 1 Optional: If OS has been installed on the server, manually format disks; otherwise, OS
installation will fail because disks are protection. For details, see A.3.13 Formatting the
disks in Remote Mode (IBM X3850 X5 and IBM X3650 M3).
Step 2 Sve the ISO mirroring file to any directory on the PC or laptop.
Step 3 Open the Internet Explorer and enter the IMM IP address of the IMM in the address bar to
access the page for logging into the IMM.
NOTE

The default IP address of the IMM is 192.168.70.125 and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. If
the default IP address of the IMM is changed, see A.3.4 How to View the IMM IP Address on the
IBM Server.

Step 4 Enter an IMM user name and a password, and click Login.

3 Installing the U2000

Procedure
Step 1 After downloading all of the required software packages and the PGP verification files to the
PC, copy the software packages and the PGP verification files of the software file in the .asc
format to the server, such as D:\oss.

NOTICE
l Do not upload and decompress client installation packages
U2000version_client_win32_x86.7z. Otherwise, the U2000 server software fails to be
installed.
l The installation path, including the installation package path and the U2000 installation
path, can contain only letters, digits, and underscores (_). The installation path cannot
contain spaces or brackets; otherwise, the installation fails.
l Do not save the installation package on disk C. The U2000 installation and operation may
be affected due to hard disk insufficiency. Files that are irrelevant to the installation
package cannot be saved to the directory where the installation package is stored.
NOTE

Ensure that all mandatory software packages are uploaded. If a software package is not uploaded, the
U2000 installation may be interrupted because a file is lacked. Selecting the components of the
transport, IP, and access domains is recommended. After the components are selected, you only need not
to download software again when adding domains. In this situation, only the disk space, not the database
space, is occupied. The installation packages to be uploaded are as follows:
1. OS patch + Database software (Required for the Windows 2008 OS) :
U2000version_server_Windows2008_ospatch_en_win64_x86.zip +
U2000version_server_sqlserver2008_dbstd_en_win64_x86.zip
2. Basic components (Mandatory) : U2000version_server_nmsbase_win32_x86.7z
3. Core components (Mandatory) : U2000version_server_nmscore_win32_x86.7z
4. Transport domain component (Optional). Prepare this component if managing transport or PTN
equipment: U2000version_server_nmstrans_win32_x86.7z
5. IP domain components (Optional). Prepare these components if managing routers, switches, or
security equipment: U2000version_server_nmsip_win32_x86.7z
6. Access domain components (Optional). Prepare this component if managing access equipment:
U2000version_server_nmsaccess_win32_x86.7z

Step 2 Use the PGPverify software to verify the uploaded software packages.
NOTE

Refer to http://support.huawei.com/carrier/digitalSignatureAction to download the latest version.


1. Download and decompress the PGPverify tool.

For carrier: visit http://support.huawei.com/carrier/digitalSignatureAction to download the


OpenPGP Signature Verification Guide package and decompress it. Continue to decompress the
VerificationTools.zip package in the current folder.

For enterprise: visit http://support.huawei.com/enterprise/toolNewInfoAction!showDetail?


pid=8221819&show=showServiceDetail&versionid=TV1000000016 to download and
decompress the VerificationTools.zip package.

2. Go to the VerificationTools folder that is generated after decompression and obtain different versions of
verification tools for different OSs.
3. KEYS is the public key file.

3 Installing the U2000

1.

Upload the obtained PGPverify software and public key file KEYS to the C:\ directory
on the server.

2.

Run the following commands to verify the installation software packages:


> "C:\PGPVerify.exe" -k "C:\KEYS" -d "D:\oss"
NOTE

Assume that the signature file and software package are stored in the D:\oss directory, and the
PGPVerify tool and public key file are stored in the C:\ directory.

To verify a single file, run the C:\PGPVerify.exe" -k "C:\KEYS" -f "C:\V200R015C60.zip.asc


command.

For a certain file, if the command output does not contain "WARN" or "FAIL", the signature file is
valid.

If a version has multiple signature files to be verified, the version is secure only when the
verification results of all files are "PASS". If the verification results contain "WARN" or "FAIL",
the verification is not passed and security risks exist. In that event, re-download the software
packages.

Step 3 There is no requirement on the decompression sequence of software packages. It is required


that the installation software be decompressed to an NT file system (NTFS) partition. Rightclick a drive and choose Properties from the shortcut menu to check whether the file system
is in the NTFS partition. If the corresponding partition does not use the NTFS, convert it to
an NTFS partition before decompressing the installation package. For details, see A.1.2 How
to Convert the File System Type to NTFS.
Step 4 Decompress all installation packages into the same directory.
NOTE

l There is no specific sequence for decompressing all software packages.


l 7-zip is recommended to decompress the software packages, obtain the 7-zip tool with the latest
version from Web site http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sevenzip and install the tool. For more
information about software operation, see the software Help or go to the official website of the
software for technical support. Perform the following operations to use the 7-zip.
Choose Start > All Programs > 7-Zip > 7-Zip File Manager. Select the directory where the
installation package is stored on the address bar. Select all the packages to be decompressed, rightclick, and choose 7-Zip > Extract Here from the shortcut menu.
l During the decompression of all selected software packages, if a message is displayed asking you
whether to overwrite an existing file, click Yes to overwrite the existing file.

3.10 Fast Restoration Scheme for the U2000 Cold Backup


System(Optional)
The fast restoration scheme for the U2000 cold backup system automatically backs up data
and files on the primary site and restores the data and files on the secondary site. When the
primary site malfunctions, the secondary site fast takes over network monitoring. The
following introduces the realization process of this scheme.

3.10.1 Introduction to the Fast Restoration Scheme for the U2000


Cold Backup System
The fast restoration scheme for the U2000 cold backup system fast restores single-server
systems. The following introduces the realization process of this scheme.

Context
If only one single server U2000 is deployed at a site, network management functions will
become unavailable if the U2000 fails. The cold backup feature is therefore introduced by
HUAWEI to implement fast restoration in the case of a system failure.
In the cold backup solution, two single server U2000 systems with the same version,
deployment domain, language, OS type, server time, and time zone are deployed. One system
is run on the primary site and the other is run on the secondary site.
l

In normal conditions, the primary site provides the network management functions. The
network management process and maintenance tool on the secondary site are stop while
the database is running. The primary site backs up the network management data
periodically, and the secondary site obtains the backup file from the primary site at
regular intervals.

If the U2000 on the primary site fails, the U2000 on the secondary site starts
immediately to provide network management functions.
NOTE

l The backup object is the entire database, including the custom data at the U2000 side (excluding the
custom options of the system), network layer trail data, NE-side configuration data, alarm data and
performance data. In addition, a backup is created for the structure of the entire database, all
database tables (including the system tables and the user tables), table structure, and stored
procedures. The personal information (including personal name, phone numbers and addresses) on
the U2000 and all user names and passwords are also backed up. Therefore, you are obligated to
take considerable measures, in compliance with the laws of the countries concerned and the user
privacy policies of your company, to ensure that the personal data of users is fully protected.
l The following data is not backed up when you back up the U2000 database:
l

The data that is not saved at the NE side, that is, the data that cannot be uploaded.

The custom options of the system. For example, font, color setting, and audio setting.

l The function of the fast restoration scheme for the cold backup system and the scheduled tasks on
the U2000 MSuite or U2000 overlaps. If the fast restoration scheme for the cold backup system is
employed, do not manually import data to the MSuite. Instead, directly use the manual backup &
restoration function of the scheme.

Process Introduction to Fast Restoration Scheme for the U2000 Cold Backup
System
The fast restoration scheme for the U2000 cold backup system supports manual and automatic
backup and restoration. If you use manual backup and restoration, you need to manually start
the backup or restoration task each time. If you use automatic backup and restoration is used,
you only need to configure a scheduled backup and a scheduled restoration task. The
automatic backup and restoration is recommended.
l

Issue 04 (2016-06-20)

Automatic backup and restoration scheme: To automatically back up and restore data,
you need to configure scheduled backup tasks on the primary site and automatic
restoration tasks on the secondary site. The process is as follows:
a.

On the secondary site, install a single server U2000 whose version, deployment
domain, language and database username are the same as those on the primary site.

b.

Configure scheduled backup tasks on the primary site. The backup files are
generated through backup modules and stored on the primary site.

c.

Configure scheduled restoration tasks on the secondary site. Obtain the backup files
through SFTP from the primary site and restore the files on the secondary site.

d.

When the primary site malfunctions, start the U2000 on the secondary site to fast
restore the U2000.

3.10.2 Creating Backup and Restoration Tasks


After installing a U2000 whose version and deployment domain are the same as those on the
primary site on the secondary site, users need to manually create backup and restoration tasks.

3.10.2.1 Configuring Automatic Backup Tasks on the Primary Site


To realize fast system restoration in the cold backup solution, users need to manually create
automatic backup tasks after installing a U2000 single-server system on the secondary site.

Prerequisites
l

A single server U2000 system whose version, deployment domain, language, OS type,
server time, and time zone are the same as those on the primary site is installed on the
secondary site. For details about the installation procedure, see the U2000 Single-Server
System Software Installation and Commissioning Guide.

The U2000 processes and the database are running on the primary site.

Network communication between the primary site and the secondary site is normal, and
the minimum bandwidth is 10 Mbit/s.

secondary site. For details about the installation procedure, see the U2000 Single-Server
System Software Installation and Commissioning Guide.
l

On the secondary site, network management process and the maintenance tool are
standby and the database is running. If the U2000 has started when the restoration task is
performed, the U2000 process is automatically stopped.

The latest backup files have been obtained from the primary site, including the backup
files in *.7z and *.asc formats. For example, use FileZilla to download the backup files
from the primary site to the local and then upload them to the secondary site.

For Linux and Solaris, ensure that the owner for the backup file and the path in which
backup file is stored is ossuser and the user group for the path is ossgroup and the path
has the read and execution permissions. You do not need to change the permission for
the /opt directory.
Run the following commands as the root user for the last directory of the path:
# chown -R ossuser:ossgroup path
# chmod -R 750 path

Run the following command for the backup file:


# chown ossuser:ossgroup backup file name
# chmod 600 backup file name

For example, if the path is /opt/backup, run the following commands as user root:
# chown -R ossuser:ossgroup /opt/backup
# chmod -R 750 /opt/backup

If the backup file is backupfile.7z, run the following commands as user root:
# cd /opt/backup
# chown ossuser:ossgroup backupfile.7z
# chmod 600 backupfile.7z

NOTE

If execution of the restoration script fails, apply troubleshooting as prompted or contact Huawei
technical support engineers.

Windows Server 2008 OS:

NOTICE
Do not close the command window when the restoration script is running.
If you press Ctrl+C while the manual restoration task is running, the manual
restoration operation will be forcibly terminated. When forcible termination is

Commissioning the U2000

About This Chapter


This topic describes how to commission the U2000. Usually, the server delivered by Huawei
has been preinstalled, and you do not need to reinstall the U2000 on the server.You can
directly commission the U2000 and modify the system and U2000 parameters according to
on-site requirements to allow for the normal use of the U2000.If the server has not been
preinstalled by Huawei, install the U2000 and commission the system. To allow the U2000 to
manage the network, you must commission the U2000 before using the U2000 to manage
NEs and configuring services.
NOTE

This chapter applies to commissioning of a newly installed U2000 server, instead of maintenance.

4.1 Commissioning Preparation


This topic describes the preparations for the commissioning of the U2000.
4.2 Performing Commissioning
This topic describes how to commission the U2000 and system parameters. If the system has

4.1.2 Checking Hardware Connections


This topic describes how to check hardware installation and cable connections before
installing a U2000. If hardware is improperly installed or cable is improperly connected,
unexpected error may occur during installation of the U2000.

Prerequisites
The server hardware must have been installed and equipment cables must have been
connected, for details, see U2000 Hardware Installation Guide (Huawei N610E cabinet).

Procedure
Step 1 Ensure that the power cables and ground wires for all components are tightly connected and in
good contact and that the polarities are properly placed.
NOTE

Generally, the server has two or more power modules which are used to provide power supply
protection. Connect each power module to a specific power input. For details, see U2000 Hardware
Installation Guide (Huawei N610E cabinet).

Step 2 Ensure that all cables are bundled and free of visible damage.

A.1.1 How to Add a Static Route


Question
If the network connection is unstable, intermittently disconnected, or unreachable, the static
route may be not added. How do I add a static route?

NOTICE
If there are multiple network interfaces and their IP addresses are within different network
segments, the static route can be configured on only one of these network interfaces. To
prevent the failure of one network interface from causing the disconnection of the entire
network, the static route needs to be added on other network interfaces.

Answer
Step 1 Run the following command on the command prompt window to view the existing routes:
C:\> route print
Step 2 Run the following command to add a route:
C:\> route -p add network_IP_address mask netmask gateway_IP_address
NOTE

l Set the following parameters:

network_IP_address: An IP address on the network segment of the computer connected to the


U2000 server.

netmask: subnet mask of the network segment on which the computer connected to the U2000
server is located.

gateway_IP_address: network management IP address for the network on which the U2000
server is located.

l To delete a route, run the following command:


C:\> route delete network_IP_address mask netmask gateway_IP_address

A.1.3 How to Change the Password of the OS Administrator


Question
How to change the password of the OS administrator?

Answer
Step 1 Log in to the OS as the administrator user.
Step 2 Ensure that the SQL server database is started.
NOTE

l If the database is not started, manually start it. Otherwise, login to the database fails after the
password is changed.
l If the password of the administrator is changed when the SQL server database is not started, login
to the database fails. In this case, you need to change the password to the original one, start the SQL
server database, and then change the password of the administrator. To ensure the security of the
U2000, passwords must be complex enough. For example, a password must contain eight or more
characters of two types. The allowed characters are digits, letters, and special characters. Remember
to change passwords regularly.

Step 3 Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to lock the current interface.


Step 4 In the dialog box that is displayed, click Change Password.
Step 5 In the dialog box that is displayed, enter the old password and the new password, and confirm
the new password.
Step 6 Click OK.
Step 7 Choose Start > All Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2008 > SQL Server Management
Studio. The Connect to Server window is displayed. Enter the server name, and then click
Connect.
Step 8 Right-click the database server node for the local server from the navigation tree and choose
Properties from the shortcut menu. In the dialog box that is displayed, click the Security tab,
and then change the administrator password in the Enable server proxy account area.

A.5.8 How to Determine Which Types of Software Are


Preinstalled
Question
Servers come preinstalled with software from Huawei. The U2000 servers come preinstalled
to different extents according to the scheme and software purchased. How do I determine
which types of software are preinstalled?

Answer
In the single-server system: The U2000 is installed based on the bill of material (BOM).
l

If the U2000 license BOM is available, the U2000 needs to be installed according to the
license BOM. Technical support engineers should change the IP address, install the
license on the U2000, and then use the U2000.

If the U2000 license BOM is unavailable, only the OS needs to be installed.

A.5.10 How to Handle the Problem Wherein the System Displays


a Message Indicating That the Client Installation Packages and
Basic Packages Cannot Exist at the Same Time During
Decompression
Question
In a scenario where the U2000 server software is installed by using software packages,
software packages are decompressed, the system displays a message indicating that the client
installation packages and basic packages cannot exist at the same time. How do I handle this
problem?

Answer
This problem arises because both the server software packages and client software packages
are copied and then decompressed at the same time. To resolve this problem, delete client
software packages and then decompress them again.

A.5.12 How Do I Verify Downloaded Software Packages Using


the PGPVerify Software?
Question
How do I verify downloaded software packages using the PGPVerify software?

Answer
l

Software packages and signature files correspond to each other and are stored in the
same directory. A software package corresponds to a signature file. Signature files are
released with products and their software packages.

The extension of signature files is .asc. Generally, the names of signature files are the
same as the names of software packages. That is, when the software package name is
V200R015C60.zip, the corresponding signature file name is V200R015C60.zip.asc.

Obtain the PGPVerify tool that is used to verify the completeness of downloaded
software packages and its public key file KEYS.

A.5.17 How to Configure the FTP or SFTP Service on Windows


OS
This topic describes how do I configure the FTP or SFTP service on Windows OS.

Prerequisites
l

To use the service of a third-party tool for file transfer, make sure that the third-party tool
configured as the FTP or SFTP service is started, and stop the FTP/SFTP service of the
U2000 server.
NOTE

The way of stop the FTP/SFTP service of the U2000 server is Stop the XftpDm process in the task
manager, configure the third-party FTP service, and then restart the ftpdaemon process.

The file transfer parameters set on the U2000 must be the same as the parameters set on
the FTP or SFTP service.

If FTP is used, peform operations as required. SFTP is recommended because it provides


better security.

If the U2000 is not installed on the server, log in to http://mina.apache.org/


ftpserver-project/downloads.html to download the latest apache-ftpserver
compression package and refer to the documents on the website to configure the
FTP service. For more information about software operation, see the software Help
or go to the official website of the software http://mina.apache.org/ftpserverproject/documentation.html for technical support. In addition to the apacheftpserver, the wftpd32.exe is another third-party tool used to configured the FTP
service. The wftpd32.exe cannot be used to configure the FTP service. Otherwise,
an abnormality occurs during remote database backup.

If the U2000 has been installed on the server, apache-ftpserver will be


automatically installed along with U2000 installation. Therefore, you do not need to
manually configure the FTP service after the U2000 is installed.

Context
l

The SFTP service is recommend because it provides better security.

See operations in this topic on the windows server before U2000 data is backed up or
restored.

User created for minasshd SFTP services is ftpuser by default and the default password
is Changeme_123. To ensure the security of the NMS, change the password for the
ftpuser user periodically.
NOTE

The password must meet the following rules:


l The password consists of 8 to 32 characters.
l The password must be a combination of three types of characters: digit, letter, and special character.

Configuring the SFTP service key method is as follows, assuming the SFTP root
directory is D: .
a.

Log in to the NMS server as a NMS administrator account.

b.

Copy the key file authorized_keys to the SFTP root directory.

c.

Copy and paste the public key information to the .ssh file in the SFTP root
directory. If the .ssh file does not exist, run the following commands to create the
file and copy key information:
> cd d:
> mkdir .ssh
> copy authorized_keys .ssh

Procedure
l

Optional: Configure the SFTP service.The SFTP service needs to be configured only
when SFTP is used on a server where the U2000 is not installed.
The minasshd software is automatically installed along with U2000 installation. The
SFTP services is automatically installed, and the user ftpuser is automatically created
for the services.

A.5.18 How to Resolve the U2000 SyslogCollectorDM Service


Startup Failure Due to a Port Conflict
Question
The UDP port 514 is used by /the syslog service in the SUSE Linux OS to receive remote
logs. After you install the U2000 on the operating system, the SyslogCollectorDM service of
the U2000 also uses port 514 to receive remote logs. If /the syslog service is enabled in the
SUSE Linux OS before an upgrade, a port conflict occurs after the upgrade. As a result, the
SyslogCollectorDM service is disabled and the attempt to start the SyslogCollectorDM
service fails.

Answer
To ensure that the NE logs are properly displayed on the U2000 client, disable the remote log
receiving function for /the syslog service in the SUSE Linux OS, and allow the U2000
SyslogCollectorDM service instead of the OS receives the remote logs. Perform the following
operations on the nodes where the SyslogCollectorDM service has been deployed to ensure
that UDP port 514 is not used by the OS.
1.

Use the PuTTY to log in to the U2000 server as user ossuser in SSH mode.Log in to the
U2000 server as user ossuser.

2.

Run the following command to set environment variables.


$ . /opt/oss/server/svc_profile.sh

3.

Run the following command to enable the U2000 SyslogCollectorDM service:


$ svc_adm -cmd enable -svcname SyslogCollectorDM

4.

If the SyslogCollectorDM service is started, the problem is not caused by the port
conflict. The procedure ends.

If the SyslogCollectorDM service is not started, perform .4.

Run the following command to switch to user root.


$ su - root
Password: Password of root

5.

Run the following command to set environment variables.


# . /opt/oss/server/svc_profile.sh

6.

Run the following command to view the usage of port UDP 514:
In the SUSE Linux OS:
# lsof -i:514
If the following information is displayed, port UDP 514 has been occupied by the syslog
service of the OS:

A.6.2 Failure to Log In to the U2000 Server from a U2000 Client


Symptom
A user fails to log in to a U2000 client after a user name and a password have been entered in
the login window.

Possible Causes
The possible causes are as follows:
l

The U2000 server does not work properly, the U2000 server fails to start properly, the
disk on the U2000 server is full, or the memory usage of the U2000 server is high
because many processes are started.

An incorrect user name or password has been entered for logging in to the U2000 client.

If the U2000 server runs on Windows, the ODBC data source is configured incorrectly or
is not configured.

If the U2000 server runs on Windows, the dynamic port of the SQL Server is not 1433;
therefore, the U2000 server fails to connect to the database and login to the U2000 server
from a U2000 client fails.

The network between the client and server does not function properly.

The license file is a temporary one or is damaged.

The number of clients allowed in the license is restricted.

The port between the client and server is shielded by firewall or viruses. In common
mode, port 31037 is used by default. In SSL mode, port 31039 is used by default.

The version of the client is inconsistent with that of the server.

The communication protocol used by the client is inconsistent with that used by the
server.

The user that logs in to the client is locked. This may be caused by too many times of
login failures.

The IP address of the computer where the client is installed is not listed in the ACL.

The OS time on the client is set incorrectly and the ILOG JTGO license is expired.

The DCN is faulty.

The 360 antivirus software has been installed on the server.

The dfwModule fails to be loaded.

The maximum client login limit has been reached.

many processes are started on the server, the memory usage is high.
1.

Ensure that the disk space of the server is not used up.

To troubleshoot the full disk space on the server on Windows, perform the
following operations:
Check that disk C is fully used, delete log files, and restart the U2000.

To troubleshoot the full disk space on the server on Solaris or SUSE Linux, perform
the following operations:
i.

Check that the space usage of the /opt directory reaches 100%.

ii.

Run the following command to check the distribution of files larger than 100
MB.
# find /opt -size +200000 -print

Software runs abnormally because temporary files on the server are improperly
large. Delete temporary files from the /opt directory if they occupy large
space.
2.

Ensure that not many processes are started on the server.


After the U2000 server is started, do not access the JDE desktop (switch to the CED
environment for the U2000 on the live network). Start the U2000 in CLI mode.

Step 3 Verify that the entered user name and password are correct.
Step 4 If a message indicating that the license file is invalid when you log in to the U2000 client,
rectify the license fault according to A.6.3 How to Resolve the Problem that the License
Does Not Take Effect and log in to the U2000 client.
Step 5 Choose Help > License Management > License Information from the main menu
(traditional style); alternatively, double-click System Management in Application Center
and choose License Management > Licenes Information from the main menu (application
style).
If the number of clients to log in exceeds the maximum number of clients allowed in the
license, apply for a new license and update the U2000 license file.
Step 6 If the U2000 server is installed on Windows, check and restore the ODBC data source settings
on the U2000. For details, see Step 3 in A.5.14 Failure to Log In to the Database.
Step 7 Check whether the versions of the client and server are consistent. If the versions are
inconsistent, a message will be displayed asking you to upgrade the client. In this case, try to
upgrade or reinstall the client.
Step 8 Check whether the communication protocols used by the client and the server are consistent.
If the protocols are inconsistent, modify the protocols so that the protocols are consistent.
NOTE

Run the ssl_adm -cmd query command on the U2000 server to view the communication mode of the
U2000 server. For details, see A.5.13 How to Set the Communication Mode on the U2000 server for
the Single-Server System (Windows).

Step 9 Check the network between the client and server.

Generally, the communication bandwidth between the client and server is at least 2 Mbit/s and
the packet loss ratio is smaller than 0.1%.
l

To check the network between the client and server, run the following command on
Windows:
> ping -t IP_address_of_the_NMS

To check the network between the client and server, run the following command on
SUSE Linux:
# ping -s IP_address_of_the_NMS

Step 10 Check whether the port between the client and server is shielded by firewall or viruses. Install
a virus scanner, scan the entire disk, and remove viruses. If the client installed on the
computer where the server belongs can log in to the server, but other clients cannot log in,
check whether the port has been added to the Windows firewall. If not, perform the following
operations to add the port to the Windows firewall:
NOTE

Windows Server 2008 is used as an example to describe the procedures for adding a port to a firewall.
The procedures vary according to OSs. For specific procedures, see the Windows help.

1.

Choose Start > Control Panel.

2.

In the Control Panel window, click windows Firewall.

3.

In the windows Firewall window, click Advanced Setting.

4.

In the Windows Firewall with Advanced Security dialog box, choose Inbound Rules
from the left navigation tree and from New Rule the right navigation tree.

5.

In the New Inbound Pule Wizard dialog box, select Port and click Next.

6.

In Specific local ports, set Ports and click Next.

7.

Select Allow the connection and click Next.

8.

Click Next, set Name, and click Finish.

Step 11 Log in to the U2000 client as the admin user and choose Administration > NMS Security >
ACL.
On the U2000, you can set the client IP addresses that can be accessed. If the IP address of a
client is not in the permitted range, the client cannot access the server. For details, see "Setting
the Access Control List" in Chapter "Security Management" in the U2000 Administrator
Guide. If NAT is used for IP address translation for communication between the client and
server, ensure that the translated IP address is permitted in the ACL.
Step 12 If the number of failed login attempts by using the same user exceeds 3, the login authority of
the user is locked.
You can log in to the client again in 30 minutes (default) or unlock the user as another user
that has the authority, such as user admin.
Step 13 Check whether the system time is the current time. If not, modify the system time.
Step 14 Check whether the 360 antivirus software has deleted some U2000 files. If yes, uninstall the
360 antivirus software and re-install the U2000.
Step 15 Create a user and use it to log in. For details, see "Setting the Maximum Number of Sessions"
in U2000 Administrator Guide.

B.2 Uninstallation Procedure


This topic describes how to uninstall the U2000 server on a Windows OS.

Prerequisites
l

Preparations for uninstalling the U2000 server software have been completed.

Ensure that the NMS installation path has been stopped.

Do not uninstall databases when uninstalling the U2000. If the database needs to be
uninstalled, uninstall the U2000 and then the database. Otherwise, some data files cannot
be deleted.

If the database and backup files need to be saved, manually back up the D:\backup
\dbbackup directory to a non-installation directory of the U2000 before uninstalling the
U2000.

This operation will uninstall the U2000. Specifically, this operation will cause NEs fail
to be managed and monitored and cause the U2000 database information to be deleted.

describes how to replace the Security Socket Layer (SSL) certificates used by the U2000
server.

Prerequisites
l

You have obtained the trust certificate (rootCA.cer, subCA1.cer) and identity certificate
(server.p12) used by the server and the encryption password for the identity certificate.

The SSL certificates have been backed up.

Use the FTP to upload the new SSL certificate files (server.p12, rootCA.cer and
subCA1.cer) to the following directory on the U2000 server as the ossuser user before
you replace the SSL certificate of server.

Solaris/SUSE Linux: /opt/oss/server/certs


NOTE

If security hardening is performed, ossuser FTP/SFTP rights will be disabled. In this case,
you need to upload files to the backup directory in the FTP root directory as the ftpuser user
(the FTP root directory of ftpuser is /opt/backup/ftpboot) and then copy files to the target
directory as the ossuser user.

Windows: D:\oss\server\certs
NOTE

Place only the certificate files server.p12, rootCA.cer and subCA1.cer in this directory. Do not
place other files in it. Otherwise, the certificate replacement script will fail to be executed.

The U2000 processes have been shutdown.

By default, the U2000 client authenticates the U2000 server, but the U2000 server does
not authenticate the U2000 client.

The Huawei-predefined SSL certificates used to safeguard communication between the


U2000 server and client are located in the following directory:

Context

On Solaris or SUSE Linux OS: /opt/oss/server/etc/ssl

On Windows OS: D:\oss\server\etc\ssl

The MSuite and the U2000 use the same SSL certificates.

In a high availability system (Veritas hot standby) scheme, replace certificates on the
servers of the primary and secondary sites.

The following script-based replacement procedure assumes that your OS is Solaris or


SUSE Linux OS. If your OS is Windows, replace the certificates for the U2000 server in
a similar way.

NOTICE
After SSL Certificates for the U2000 server have been replaced, you may fail to log in to
the MSuite.

Between the U2000 and uTraffic
When the U2000 is installed, the SSL certificate developed by Huawei is loaded for
temporary communication. Do not use this certificate commercially. The U2000 supports
certificate replacement. Before enabling SSL communication, apply for a certificate from a
CA and use it to replace the temporary certificate in the commissioning phase. Perform the
following operations to replace Security Socket Layer (SSL) certificates used for the
communication between the U2000 and uTraffic.

Prerequisites
l

You have obtained the SSL certificates and encryption passwords from a trusted institute.

The client.p12 contains the client certificate file and key file. The password for
encrypting the file needs to be obtained.

The server.p12 contains the server certificate file and key file. The password for
encrypting the file needs to be obtained.

The rootCA.cer and subCA1.cer contains the files issued by the client, server, and
upper-layer system.

Use the FTP to upload the new SSL certificate to the following directory on the U2000
server as the ossuser user before you replace the SSL certificate.

Solaris/SUSE Linux: /opt/oss/server/certs


NOTE

If security hardening is performed, ossuser FTP/SFTP rights will be disabled. In this case,
you need to upload files to the backup directory in the FTP root directory as the ftpuser user
(the FTP root directory of ftpuser is /opt/backup/ftpboot) and then copy files to the target
directory as the ossuser user.

Windows: D:\oss\server\certs

The SSL certificates have been backed up.

The predeployed SSL certificates for the communication between the U2000 and
uTraffic are stored in the following paths:

C.4.3 Deploying the SSL Trust Certificate on the Internet Explorer


When the U2000 uses Hedex Help or uses the Web LCT to manage NE series, such as the NG
WDM, NG WDM (NA), RTN, and Marine, some functions of the NE Explorer must be
opened through an Internet Explorer. In this case, the SSL trust certificate of the Internet
Explorer must be deployed.

Context
The trust certificate preconfigured by Huawei consists of the root certificate
huaweiossCA.crt and intermediate certificate networkossCA.crt. All of the certificates need
to be deployed on the Internet Explorer.

Procedure
Step 1 Open the Internet Explorer of the U2000 client and choose Tool > Internet Options from the
main menu.
Step 2 In the Internet Options dialog box, select Content tab and click Certificates.
Step 3 In the Certificates dialog box, deploy the root certificate huaweiossCA.crt.
1.

Select the Trusted Root Certification Authorities tab and click Import.

C.5 Configuring and Testing the FTP Service


During data synchronization, upgrade, backup, and patch installation of NEs, you need to
configure and test the FTP and SFTP service to ensure that the FTP services work properly
between NE software, the U2000, and NEs. This topic describes how to configure and test the
FTP and SFTP services on the U2000.

C.5.1 Overview of the FTP Service Used by the U2000


This topic describes the protocol mode, operation mode, and usage scenarios of the FTP
service used by the U2000.

FTP Service Protocol Mode


The U2000 supports two protocol modes for transferring FTP files: FTP and SFTP. In
comparison with FTP, SFTP is more secure and therefore is recommended to enhance system
security.

FTP Service Operation Mode


The U2000 supports two operation modes for using the FTP service: local FTP service mode
and third-party FTP service mode.

Figure C-1 FTP Service Operation Mode

Local FTP service mode: The U2000 server functions as the FTP server. During the
U2000 installation, an FTP/SFTP user is created by default to implement file transfer
among the client, NEs, and U2000 server.

Third-party FTP service mode: A computer is configured as the FTP server. In this case,
the FTP/SFTP service must be installed on the computer and an FTP/SFTP user must be
created to implement file transfer among the client, NEs, and U2000 server.

FTP Service Usage Scenario


After the U2000 is installed, four FTP accounts and eight FTP applications are provided by
default. Figure C-2 shows the default FTP accounts used by default FTP applications.
Figure C-2 Default FTP accounts used by default FTP applications

After the U2000 is installed, one default local FTP account and three default third-party FTP
accounts are available. Each FTP account is a combination of the FTP service mode, FTP user
account, and main directory. FTP applications can directly use the FTP accounts without
requiring the input of FTP user names or other information. The default local FTP account has

C.5.2 Procedure for Configuring and Testing the FTP Service on


the U2000
This topic describes the procedure for configuring and testing the FTP service on the U2000.
After the U2000 is installed, each application of the FTP service obtains a default FTP
account that is bound to a default FTP user. To enable an application to use the FTP service
with its own FTP account, create an FTP user and an FTP account mapped to the user, and
then add the FTP account to the application. You are advised to use the default FTP account,
without adding any new FTP user. Figure C-3 shows the procedure for configuring and
testing the FTP service.

C.5.3 Checking the Startup Status of FTP Servers (Windows)


This topic describes how to check the startup status of local and third-party FTP servers. If the
involved FTP server has not been started, start it manually.

Prerequisites
FTP servers are functioning properly, and the FTP/SFTP service has been installed.

Context
l

The U2000 supports both local and third-party FTP servers. If over 5,000 NEs are
managed, you are advised to use third-party FTP servers to transfer files between the
U2000 and NEs.

This topic focuses on how to check the startup status of a local FTP server. If a thirdparty FTP server is used, ensure that FTP-related software has been installed and
configured on the server. For details about how to install and configure the software, see
A.5.17 How to Configure the FTP or SFTP Service on Windows OS.

If a local FTP server is used, the FTP service is automatically installed, and the ftpuser
user is automatically created during U2000 installation. The ftpuser user is a default user
of the FTP service that is enabled by default. If a local FTP server is used, the OpenSSH
software is automatically installed during U2000 installation. In addition, the SFTP
service is automatically installed, and the ftpuser and sshd users are automatically
created.

sshd: user of the SSH service that is disabled by default. This user is automatically
created during OpenSSH installation.

Procedure
Step 1 Log in to the operating system as a user with ossuser rights.
Step 2 Use the FTP software (for example, FileZilla) to connect to the U2000 server. If the
connection is successful, the FTP service has started. If the connection fails, the FTP service
has not started.
----End

Follow-up Procedure
l

Enable the FTP service.


a.

Log in to the operating system with the ossuser rights.

b.

Access the D:\oss\server\3rdTools\ftp path and rename the Start_Apache_ftp.bat


script under the ftp folder. For example, change the script name to
Start_Apache_ftp_win.bat.

c.

Execute the Start_Apache_ftp_win.bat script.


NOTE

l The D:\oss\server\3rdTools\ftp path needs to be accessed if the U2000 is installed in D:


\oss. If the U2000 is not installed in D:\oss, change drive letter D in the command line
based on the actual situations.
l Enabling the uflight_dispatcher script causes the FTP service to be automatically
enabled. To prevent the the FTP service to be automatically enabled, you must rename
the Start_Apache_ftp.bat script.
l If the FTP service is enabled for the first time, you must rename the
Start_Apache_ftp.bat script, as described in Step 2. Renaming the
Start_Apache_ftp.bat script is not required later.

Disable the FTP service.


a.

Log in to the operating system with the ossuser rights.

b.

Access the D:\oss\server\3rdTools\ftp path and rename the Uninstall_ftp_win.bat


script under the ftp folder. For example, change the script name to
Uninstall_Apache_ftp_win.bat.

c.

Execute the Uninstall_Apache_ftp_win.bat script.

C.5.4 Creating an FTP User


After the U2000 is installed, each FTP service application has a default FTP account and the
account is bound to a default FTP user. To use an independent FTP account for an application,
you must create an FTP user.

Prerequisites
l

The OS and database must run properly.


If the database is not started, choose Start > All Programs > Microsoft SQL Server
2008 > Configuration Tools > SQL Server Configuration Manager > SQL Server
Services, right-click SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) and choose Start to start the
database. If the database has been started, this step is not required.

The processes of the U2000 must be properly started.


If U2000 services have not been started, double-click the U2000 Server shortcut icon on
the desktop or run the startnms.bat file in the %IMAP_ROOT%\platform\bin to start
U2000 services manually.

Context
l

This topic describes how to create an FTP user on a local FTP server instead of a thirdparty server. To use a third-party FTP user for an application, you must ensure that the
FTP user has been successfully created and can be used.

When the U2000 is installed, the system installs an FTP user named ftpuser by default.
This user supports FTP/SFTP services.

Newly created FTP users support only FTP services in a Windows environment.

Procedure
Step 1 Log in to the U2000 server operating system as a user with ossuser rights.
Step 2 Choose Start > Run. In the Run dialog box, enter the cmd command to access the CLI.
Step 3 Perform the following operations to create an FTP account:
1.

In the CLI, enter the following command to create an FTP account:


> cd /d D:\oss\server\3rdTools\ftp\apacheftpserver\bin
> UserManager.bat cfg name password rootpath
NOTE

In this command, the U2000 is installed on drive D. If the U2000 is installed on another drive,
D in the command must be replaced with this drive letter.

name specifies a name for an FTP user.

password specifies a password for an FTP user.

rootpath specifies a root path for an FTP user.

Do not set the FTP home directory to d:\oss (U2000 installation directory) or c: (system
directory).

For example, UserManager.bat cfg ftpusertester Changeme_123 d:\ftp is configured.

If the message "Config user success." is displayed, the creation is successful.

C.5.5 Creating an FTP Account and Adding it to an FTP


Application
This topic describes how to create an FTP account on a U2000 client and add the account to
the associated FTP application. If no new FTP account is required, skip this topic.

Prerequisites
l

You are an NMS user with Operator Group authority or higher.

On the FTP server, create an FTP user for the associated FTP application.

By default, the local FTP account and associated FTP application have been configured
after a U2000 client is installed. Do not modify the default settings.

Multiple FTP applications can share one FTP account.

The procedure for creating new account NE Management FTP Account to be used for
the NE Software Management application and binding the neftpuser user is used as an
example.

Context

NOTICE
If you enter an incorrect password for an FTP account for three consecutive times, the account
will be locked for 30 minutes. Within this period, functions that require the FTP service will
be unavailable, such as data synchronization and backup.

Procedure
Step 1 Choose Administration > Settings > FTP Account Information Management from the
main menu (traditional style); alternatively, double-click System Management in
Application Center and choose Settings > FTP Account Information Management from
the main menu (application style).
Step 2 In the FTP Account Information Management dialog box, click the Configure FTP
Account tab.

Step 3 On the Configure FTP Account tab, add account NE Management FTP Account for the
NE Software Management application.
1.

Right-click in a blank area and choose Add from the shortcut menu.

2.

In the Add FTP User dialog box, set parameters such as FTP Account, Server Name,
and Server IP Address.

FTP Account: name of the new account, for example, NE Management FTP
Account

Server Type: running mode of the FTP service, for example, Local FTP Server

Server Name: name of the FTP server, for example, U2000 Server

User Name: name of the user used for the new account, for example, neftpuser

FTP Port: port number of the FTP service, for example, 21

SFTP Port: port number of the SFTP service, for example, 22

Password: password of the neftpuser user, for example, Changeme_123. To


enhance system security, you need to regularly update the password and keep it
well.

Home Directory: Home directory of the neftpuser user, for example, /opt/backup/
neftpboot

Path: relative path such as ftproot/dc where the neftpuser user stores files. The
relative path and the home directory form the absolute path, such as /opt/backup/
neftpboot/ftproot/dc, where the neftpuser user stores files by default.
NOTE

The account is created only for registration. The FTP user used for the account must be created
on the FTP server before account creation; otherwise, the FTP account cannot be properly used
after being created.

FTP user information configured in this step must be the same as that on the FTP server.

As SFTP is securer than FTP, SFTP is recommended when Server Type is set to Third Party.

After the U2000 is installed, the default FTP home directory is d:. You can manually change
the default FTP home directory to another directory such as e:\ftp.

Do not set the FTP home directory to d:\oss (U2000 installation directory) or c: (system
directory).

3.

Click OK.

4.

In the Result dialog box, click Close.

Step 4 In the FTP Account Information Management dialog box, click the Configure FTP
Application tab.

AIS

See Alarm Indication Signal

Alarm

A message reported when a fault is detected by a device or by the network


management system during the process of polling devices. Each alarm corresponds to
a recovery alarm. After a recovery alarm is received, the status of the corresponding
alarm changes to cleared.

alarm
acknowledgement

An operation performed on an alarm. Through this operation, the status of an alarm is


changed from unacknowledged to acknowledged, which indicates that the user starts
handling the alarm. The process during which when an alarm is generated, the
operator needs to acknowledge the alarm and take the right step to clear the alarm.

alarm correlation rule


analyzing

A process of analyzing the alarms that meet alarm correlation rules. If alarm 2 is
generated within 5 seconds after alarm 1 is generated and meets the alarm correlation
analysis rules, the EMS masks alarm 2 or improves its severity level according to the
alarm correlation rules.

alarm delay time

The alarm delay time consists of the start delay time and the end delay time. When an
NE detects an alarm for a period, the period is the start delay time. When an NE
detects that the alarm disappears for a period, the period is the end delay time.
Unnecessary alarms that are caused by error reports or jitters can be avoided by setting
the delay time.

On a device, an alarm is reported to the EMS at once after the alarm is generated. On
the EMS client, the corresponding alarm information is displayed on the alarm panel.

alarm severity

The significance of a change in system performance or events. According to ITU-T


recommendations, an alarm can have one of the following severities:Critical, Major,
Minor, Warning.

alarm status

The devices in the network report traps to the NMS, which displays the alarm statuses
in the topological view. The status of an alarm can be critical, major, minor and
prompt.

alarm synchronization When alarm synchronization is implemented, the EMS checks the alarm information
in its database and on the NEs. If the alarm information on the two locations is
inconsistent, the alarm information on the NEs is synchronized to the EMS database to
replace the original records.
ALC link

Bond

Bond: On the SUSE Linux OS, the bond technology is used to form a virtual layer
between the physical layer and the data link layer. This technology allows two server
NICs connecting to a switch to be bound to one IP address. The MAC addresses of the
two NICs are also automatically bound as one MAC address. In this manner, a virtual
NIC is formed. The bond technology supports two modes: double-live and primary/
secondary. In double-live mode, after receiving request data from a remote server, the
virtual NIC on the server determines data transmission based on an algorithm,
improving network throughput and usability of the server. In primary/secondary mode,
if an NIC does not function properly, services will be automatically switched to the
other NIC, ensuring service protection. The SUSE Linux OS supports the binding of
NICs in primary/secondary mode.

Client/Server

The model of interaction in a distributed system in which a program at one site sends a
request to a program at another site and awaits a response. The requesting program is
called a client. The program satisfying the request is called the server. It is usually
easier to build client software than build the server software.

client/server software
architecture

A message-based and modular software architecture that comprises servers and


clients. Compared with the centralized, mainframe, and time sharing computing, the
client/server software architecture improves the usability, flexibility, interoperability,
and scalability. In this architecture, a client is defined as the party that requires
services and a server is defined as the party that provides services. The client/server
architecture reduces network traffic by providing a query response rather than
transferring all files.

cluster

A mechanism adopted to improve the system performance. Several devices of the


same type form a cluster. The exterior of a cluster is some like a kind of equipment. In
the interior of a cluster, the nodes share the load.

committed access rate

Redundant Arrays of
Independent Disks

F Glossary and Abbreviations

A data storage scheme that allows data to be stored and replicated in a hardware disk
group (logical hard disk) consisting of multiple hard disks (physical hard disks). When
multiple physical disks are set up to use the RAID technique, they are said to be in a
RAID array. The hard disks in a RAID array provides higher data reliability and input/
output performance. There are various defined levels of RAID, each offering differing
trade-offs among access speed, reliability, and cost. At present, there are seven basic
RAID levels from RAID 0 to RAID 6. These basic RAID levels can be further
combined to form new RAID levels, such as RAID 10 (a combination of RAID 0 and
RAID 1).

Remote Authentication RADIUS was originally used to manage the scattered users who use the serial
Dial in User Service
interface and modem, and it has been widely used in NAS. NAS delivers the
information of users on authentication, authorization and accounting to the RADIUS
server. RADIUS stipulates how the user and accounting information is transferred
between NAS and RADIUS. The RADIUS server is responsible for receiving the
connection request from users to complete authentication, and returning the
configurations of the users to NAS.
remote authentication
dial-in user service

A security service that authenticates and authorizes dial-up users and is a centralized
access control mechanism. RADIUS uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) as its
transmission protocol to ensure real-time quality. RADIUS also supports the
retransmission and multi-server mechanisms to ensure good reliability.

A network management protocol of TCP/IP. It enables remote users to view and


modify the management information of a network element. This protocol ensures the
transmission of management information between any two points. The polling
mechanism is adopted to provide basic function sets. According to SNMP, agents,
which can be hardware as well as software, can monitor the activities of various
devices on the network and report these activities to the network console workstation.
Control information about each device is maintained by a management information
block.

static route

A route that cannot adapt to the change of network topology. Operators must configure
it manually. When a network topology is simple, the network can work in the normal
state if only the static route is configured. It can improve network performance and
ensure bandwidth for important applications. Its disadvantage is as follows: When a
network is faulty or the topology changes, the static route does not change
automatically. It must be changed by the operators.

Synchronous Digital
Hierarchy

SDH is a transmission scheme that follows ITU-T G.707, G.708, and G.709. It defines
the transmission features of digital signals such as frame structure, multiplexing mode,
transmission rate level, and interface code. SDH is an important part of ISDN and BISDN. It interleaves the bytes of low-speed signals to multiplex the signals to highspeed counterparts, and the line coding of scrambling is only used only for signals.
SDH is suitable for the fiber communication system with high speed and a large
capacity since it uses synchronous multiplexing and flexible mapping structure.

Synchronous Optical
Network

Synchronous Optical Network, is a method for communicating digital information


using lasers or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) over optical fiber. The method was
developed to replace the Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) system for
transporting large amounts of telephone and data traffic and to allow for
interoperability between equipment from different vendors. SONET defines interface
standards at the physical layer of the OSI seven-layer model. The standard defines a
hierarchy of interface rates that allow data streams at different rates to be multiplexed.
SONET establishes Optical Carrier (OC) levels from 51.8 Mbps (OC-1) to 9.95 Gbps
(OC-192).
