1 Scope
This document defines the interworking solution between 9500 MPR based microwave transport networks and IP/MPLS aggregation networks with the use of Ethernet VLLs (Epipes).
2 Audience
This document is intended for product and solution managers, and R&D personnel of WTPG and IPD. It is not intended for general distribution.
3 Introduction
This document is applicable to transport networks where the customer is asking: to gather traffic from peripheral locations to central locations to have microwave based access to have IP/MPLS based aggregation
Customer peripheral stations MW transport IP/MPLS transport Customer central locations
MW
IP/MPLS
There is a suitable number of hand-off sites between the microwave backhauling and the IP/MPLS fiber backhauling (i.e. between the L2/Static MPLS domain and the dynamic MPLS domain). In the hand-off point(s) a Gigabit Ethernet connection is typically used to connect the microwave equipment with the IP/MPLS equipment. Microwave network topology is typically a daisychain layout in the access network (see Figure 1). For the purpose of this solution, the topology of the MW network is not vital to the operation of the interworking function at the hand-off site.

Hand-off Sites
For ease of reference, the following diagram captures the names used for various parts of the solution topologies:
PE Microwave Network Cell-site MPR GW MPR 7xxx in the hand-off 7750 in the MTSO Controller IPD Network PE
Handoff point
The different native services (TDM, ATM/IMA, Ethernet) are mapped in the hand-off point into Ethernet.
Two interworking models will be introduced in a phased approach: Interworking model 1 => Epipes In the hand-off point the native services will be mapped as: o ATM => into an MPLS PW o TDM => into a MEF-8 PW o Ethernet => as native Ethernet The IPD network will then use Epipes to (re-)encapsulate everything into PtP Ethernet connections

o Interworking model 2 => Multi-segment PW In the hand-off point the native services will be mapped as MPLS PW. The IPD network will then implement PW switching to open Apipes/Cpipes/Epipes This document focuses on Interworking model 1 requirements.

E1 service o Protocol stack is E1/MEF-8/VLAN/Ethernet. o There is a one-to-one correspondence between o E1 <=> ECID(=PW_label) <=> VLAN_ID. o ACR without RTP is used in conjunction with 7750. Ethernet frames going from MPR to 7x50/7705 have o unique MAC SA equal to the MPR MAC address in the hand-off point. o MAC DA is configurable per PW
ATM service o Protocol stack is ATM/PW/MPLS Tunnel/VLAN/Ethernet. o A single and provisionable MPLS Tunnel label is used; in a network with N hand-off points, there will be N different tunnel labels. Typical values for N are from 1 to 40. o Each tunnel can carry hundreds of ATM PWs. o Tunnel header in the direction MPR => 7x50: Tunnel_label is configurable (range:32 to 287, automatically derived by MPR from PW_label and MPR-internal VLAN_ID); Tunnel_exp bits are copied frame-by-frame from PW_exp bits. o The hashing function that maps ATM PW_label and VLAN_ID to Tunnel label allows to use up to 512 different ATM PW_label and VLAN_ID values into the same tunnel label. o o Tunnel header in the direction 7x50 => MPR: the info embedded in the Tunnel tag (label and exp) are not used by the MPR. o With reference to RFC4717: N-to-1 mode with N=1 is the encapsulation method; the mapping can be either VC<=>PW or VP<=> PW; the former being the typical behaviour, because of QoS management with NodeBs generating 1 VP with multiple VCs at different ATM service category levels. o Cell concatenation possible and provisionable (N ATM cells per MPLS packet; 1N28).

o PW header in the direction MPR => 7x50: the PW label is provisionable per PW and a unique value is used for both directions; the PW_exp represents CoS derived from original ATM SC. o PW header in the direction 7x50 => MPR: the PW_label is used by MPR to reconstruct MPR-internal VLAN identifiers; the PW_exp is used to determine MPR-internal CoS info (used in the Core switch). o A VLAN tag is present, with a single and provisionable VLAN identifier. o In the direction MPR => 7x50 the VLAN p-bits are copied frame by frame- from the PW exp bits; this allows a Carrier Ethernet transport equipment (e.g. the 7450) to use specific Ethernet QoS mechanisms for traffic forwarding (e.g 7450 opening an Epipe with its own PW exp bits, and mapping there the received p bits info) o In the direction 7x50 => MPR is not using received p bits; the MPR is remarking the VLAN p bits frame by frame in order to declare each frame green=in-profile. Ethernet frames going from MPR to 7x50/7705 have o unique MAC SA equal to the MPR MAC address in the hand-off point. This behavior has a direct impact on the service configuration in the IP/MPLS aggregation network. o MAC DA is configurable per PW Ethernet service o MPR can be configured for the Eth service either in bridge mode in accordance to 802.1d or in VLAN mode in accordance with 802.1q Different cases can be envisaged: MPR in bridge mode and customer delivering only tagged frames => 7450 can open one tagged Epipe per VLAN. MPR in bridge mode and customer delivering both tagged and untagged frames => 7450 will open an Epipe in per VLAN and supports null VLAN ID (0) and default service (*) for untagged frames and tagged frames with no explicit service definition. 7705 SAR also supports these service capabilities. MPR in VLAN mode => both tagged and untagged customer traffic can be accepted by the MPR. Here the MPR will tag customer untagged frames with provisionable VLAN_ID.

o Ethernet frames going from MPR to 7x50/7705: the GW MPR will not change any field in the L2 Ethernet layer (MAC SA, MAC DA, VLAN if present). This is different from TDM and ATM hand-off behavior.
4.3 Scalability
4.3.1 IPD Products
Depending on the platform and chassis sizes that are deployed in the IPD segment of the network, the scalability numbers will be different. Network architecture dictates what ultimately becomes a scaling issue. For example, typical limiting parameters on the MTSO 7750s are: Network Interfaces T-LDP sessions BFD sessions OSPF adjacencies Ports per LAG group SR1 IP interfaces For example, prior to release 8.0 of the 7750, up to 240 distributed MW clusters (=handoff points) can be accommodated. As of R8.0, the limit will be close to 1000. Even prior to R8, this is foreseen to be more than sufficient to support MW access aggregation interworking. Scalability of a given solution will be detailed in 5. Alcatel-Lucent IPD and WTPG Interworking Solutions Over Ethernet VLLs Internal use only - Copyright 2009 Alcatel-Lucent. All rights reserved.

5 Solutions
The solutions presented here use the dual-chassis 7750 resiliency model. The single chassis topology is also possible with the removal of unnecessary configuration options. As an example in the following picture is shown for the ATM case- a 7750 dual chassis arrangement vs. a single chassis one.

5.1.3 Scalability
IPD Network With no other services configured on the same network, the 7750 SRs can support up-to a maximum of 992 static MPLS tunnels. Prior to release 8.0 of the 7750, up to 240 distributed MW clusters (=handoff points) can be accommodated (240 is related to the maximum number of 7750 network interfaces every uW cluster is seen as a Network adjacency taking up 1 network IP interface) As of R8.0, the limit will be close to 1000. This is foreseen to be more than sufficient to support MW access aggregation interworking. There may be other important scalability considerations that need to be made. These are often dependent on the backhaul network architecture, and would have to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.
5.1.4 Requirements
Unless otherwise noted here, the products used in the solution already support the technologies to perform the aggregation functions described in this solution. For example, it is implied that the PE router in the IP/MPLS aggregation network support Epipe services. Features to be implemented:

5.2.3 Scalability
IPD Network Consider that at least theoretically- there is a limit on the number of E1s due to the connection in the BSC/RNC central location between the 7750 and the BSC/RNC. This limit is related to 4 x STM1 output ports of each CES MDA (Circuit Emulation Media Dependent Adapter). Example with SR12: there are 20 available slots for MDAs; assuming that 10 of them are used as CES MDA to terminate MEF-8 services, this is introducing a limit of 10 (MDA) x 4 (STM-1 ports) x 63 (E1per STM-1) = 2520 E1. This is not seen as a real restriction.
5.2.4 Requirements
There are no additional product requirements for supporting this solution.
