Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction • User interface subsystem (data channels with serial interfaces and Ethernet port) • Timing subsystem • Test subsystem • Management subsystem • Power supply subsystem. The characteristics of the various subsystems are explained below.
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual Main Link Interface The main link interface includes a framer and an LIU (line interface unit). The characteristics and the main functions of the main link interface are described below. Main Link Interface Characteristics The FCD-E1LC main link meets the applicable requirements of ITU-T Rec. G.703, G.704, G.706, G.732, G.823 and G.826.
Installation and Operation Manual Note Chapter 1 Introduction When the main link is operated in the unframed mode, the framer is bypassed. In this mode, the main link transparently transfers the data stream received from one of the data channels. The appropriate data channel is automatically selected: channel 1 for an FCD-E1LC with one data channel, and channel 2 for an FCD-E1LC with two data channels.
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual Synchronous Data Channels Data Channel Interface Characteristics The FCD-E1LC data channel is available with one of the following types of interfaces: RS-530, V.35, X.21, or V.36/RS-449. All versions are supplied with a 25-pin D-type female connector. V.24 interface equipment connects to the RS-232 port of the FCD-E1LC using a standard straight cable. All other interface versions are terminated in a 25-pin D-type female connector.
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction size is automatically selected in accordance with the data channel rate, as listed in Table 1-1. The values listed in Table 1-1 are selected in accordance with the limits specified in the applicable standards. In addition, when using the DTE2 mode, the FIFO size can also be manually selected, to enable the user to increase FIFO size when the jitter exceeds the expected limits. Table 1-1. FIFO Size vs.
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual Ethernet Port Interface Characteristics The Ethernet port 10/100Base-T LAN interface supports auto-negotiation. However, the user can also disable auto-negotiation and specify directly the operating rate (10 or 100 Mbps) and operating mode (half-duplex or full-duplex).
Installation and Operation Manual • Chapter 1 Introduction In the full-duplex mode, the standard flow control method defined in IEEE 802.3x is used. This method is based on pause frames and enables stopping and restoring the transmission from the remote node. However, this method can only be used when auto-negotiation is enabled on the port, and the node attached to the port supports pause frames.
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual System Timing Internally, the FCD-E1LC uses one timing source (clock). This system clock determines the transmit timing of the E1 main and sublinks and user channels, and the timing of most other signal processing operations. To achieve maximum flexibility in system integration and enable hierarchical distribution of timing in the system, the FCD-E1LC enables you to select the source to which the master clock is locked.
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction • DTE1 – the data channel sends the receive data accompanied by the receive clock, derived from the main system clock, to the user’s equipment connected to the data channel, and accepts user’s data according to the user’s equipment transmit clock. • DTE2 – FCD-E1LC transmits and receives data according to the clock signals provided by the equipment connected to the data channel.
Chapter 1 Introduction • Installation and Operation Manual Serial data channels: local and remote loopbacks. Timeslot Handling When operating in any of the framed modes, FCD-E1LC allows you to configure the routing of the individual timeslots for the data channels (including the Ethernet interface) and for the sublink. The routing can be modified during system operation, without disrupting the service to users of timeslots that are not rerouted.
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction • SNMP Management − The SNMP management capability enables fully graphical, user-friendly management using the RADview network management stations offered by RAD, as well as management by other SNMP-based management systems. • Telnet − Remote management is also possible using the Telnet communication protocol, which uses TCP/IP communication, without the SNMP service.
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual • Send a report only upon the detection of a major alarm. • Reporting disabled (no dial-out function). When it is necessary to report an alarm condition, FCD-E1LC initiates the call setup, and then, after the destination answers, sends the complete contents of the alarm buffer. Following the transmission of the alarm buffer contents, FCD-E1LC disconnects automatically.
Installation and Operation Manual 1.5 Chapter 1 Introduction Timing Considerations Main Link Timing Application Figure 1-5 shows a typical application in which FCD-E1LC is operated with the main link as the timing reference source, and illustrates the flow of timing signals within the system. FCD-E1LC User's DTE DCE Timing ML Timing E1 Network FCD-E1LC User's DTE DCE Timing FCD-E1LC User's DTE DTE1 Timing Loopback Timing ML Timing Master Timing Source Figure 1-5.
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual For this purpose, the FCD-E1LC connected to the data network uses the data channel as its timing source, and therefore its main link timing is locked to the data network timing. The FCD-E1LC located on the customer’s premises uses main link timing. As a result, its system timing is also locked to the data network timing, and the network timing is transferred to the data equipment located on the customer’s premises.
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction activation of test loops, reading of performance statistics, etc.) can be performed in three ways: • Supervision Terminal • SNMP Management • Telnet. Management Access Options The control subsystem of FCD-E1LC systems supports both out-of-band and inband management access. • For out-of-band management, the connection is made through the front panel serial port, via the SLIP or PPP protocol.

Appendix B SNMP Management This appendix provides specific information related to the management of FCD-E1LC units by means of the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Some of the information presented in this Appendix is also applicable for management using Telnet. The information presented in this Appendix is organized as follows: • Description of SNMP environment – Section B.1 • SNMP traps supported by FCD-E1LC – Section B.
Appendix B SNMP Management Installation and Operation Manual SNMP Operations The SNMP protocol includes four types of operations: getRequest Command for retrieving specific management information from the managed entity. The managed entity responds with a getResponse message. getNextRequest Command for retrieving sequentially specific management information from the managed entity. The managed entity responds with a getResponse message.
Installation and Operation Manual Appendix B SNMP Management The assigned number designates the top of an enterprise-specific sub-tree of non-standard MIBs. Within this context, RAD has been assigned the enterprise number 164. Therefore, enterprise MIBs published by RAD can be found under 1.3.6.1.4.1.164. MIBs of general interest are published by the IAB in the form of a Request for Comment (RFC) document. In addition, MIBs are also often assigned informal names that reflect their primary purpose.
Appendix B SNMP Management Installation and Operation Manual When an SNMP message is received by the addressed entity, first it checks the originator's community. If the community name of the message originator differs from the community name specified for that type of message in the agent, the message it discarded (SNMP agents of managed entities report this event by means of an authentication failure trap).
Installation and Operation Manual Appendix B SNMP Management To select the management mode, use the DEF SP command. Configure the AUXILIARY_DEVICE parameter as follows: • TERMINAL – when only the ASCII supervision terminal must be supported. • SLIP-AGENT – when the supervisory port must support the SLIP protocol, and is connected to the management station through another serial port that supports SLIP (for example, the CONTROL DTE port of a Megaplex-2100/2104).
Appendix B SNMP Management Installation and Operation Manual Inband Management Traffic Routing The FCD-E1LC management traffic router uses the RAD proprietary routing protocol whenever it operates in a network environment consisting of RAD products. In addition, you can configure the management traffic router to use standard protocols (such as frame relay), when connecting directly to a router. • The RAD proprietary routing protocol is used with timeslot 0 and the dedicated timeslot option.
Appendix C Operating Environment This appendix presents a concise description of the operating environment of FCD-E1LC systems, to provide the background information required for understanding the FCD-E1LC configuration and performance monitoring parameters. This Appendix covers the following issues: • E1 environment – Section A.2. • IP environment – Section A.3. • Ethernet transmission technology – Section A.4. C.

Installation and Operation Manual Appendix C Operating Environment E1 Line Signal The E1 line signal uses the High-Density Bipolar 3 (HDB3) code. The HDB3 coding format is an improvement of the alternate mark inversion (AMI) code. In the AMI format, “ones” are alternately transmitted as positive and negative pulses, whereas “zeros” are transmitted as a zero voltage level. The AMI format cannot transmit long strings of “zeros”, because such strings do not carry timing information.
Appendix C Operating Environment Installation and Operation Manual carrying the inband management traffic. The total data rate that can be carried by a national bit is 4 kbps. E1 Line Statistics Using CRC-4 Error Detection FCD-E1LC supports the CRC-4 function in accordance with ITU-T Rec. G.704. The CRC-4 function is used to detect errors in the received data, and therefore can be used to evaluate data transmission quality over E1 links. This function can be enabled or disabled by the user.
Installation and Operation Manual Note Appendix C Operating Environment • Loss of multiframe alignment (applicable only when G732S multiframes are used). This condition is declared when too many errors are detected in the multiframe alignment signal (MAS) (same conditions as for loss of frame alignment). The loss of multiframe alignment is reported by means of the Y bit (see Figure A-1). • Alarm indication signal (AIS).
Appendix C Operating Environment Installation and Operation Manual An IP address is a number selected in accordance with the IP protocol. The only purpose of an IP address is to permit unambiguous identification of an IP port. Therefore, each IP port must be assigned a distinct and unique IP address. The IP protocol does not require the IP port to be related in an unambiguous way to a physical (communication) port.
Installation and Operation Manual Appendix C Operating Environment IP Address Structure An IP address is a 32-bit number, represented as four 8-bit bytes. Each byte represents a decimal number in the range of 0 through 255. The address is written in decimal format, with the bytes separated by decimal points, e.g., 164.90.70.47. This format is called dotted quad notation. An IP address is logically divided into two main portions: • Network portion • Host portion.
Appendix C Operating Environment Installation and Operation Manual Host Portion In general, the host portion is used to identify an individual host connected to an IP network. For exceptions, see Subnetting section below. After obtaining an IP network address, the using organization is free to assign host identifiers in accordance with its specific needs.
Installation and Operation Manual Appendix C Operating Environment Subnetting Given the scarcity of IP network addresses, for organizations operating several relatively small, physically separated, IP networks, e.g., several departmental networks, it is advantageous to enable several physical networks to share a common IP network address.
Appendix C Operating Environment Installation and Operation Manual In most applications, the binary subnet mask is built as a contiguous string of “ones”, followed by a number of “zeros” (the number of “zeros” is selected as needed, to complete the number of subnet mask bits to 32). Therefore, when this conventional approach is used, the subnet mask can also be specified simply by stating the number of “ones” in the mask.
Installation and Operation Manual Appendix C Operating Environment networks are sent to the default gateway for processing: the router serving as default gateway then sends them to their destination. The default gateway must always be in the same IP subnet as the port sending traffic to the gateway. C.3 Ethernet Transmission Technology Introduction to Ethernet Transmission The basic standard covering Ethernet LANs is IEEE Standard 802.3, which is very similar to the original Ethernet V2.
Appendix C Operating Environment Installation and Operation Manual pin assignment has also been standardized. However, because of the need to use separate transmit and receive pairs, two types of port pin assignments have developed: station ports and hub ports (the difference is that the transmit and receive pins in the connector have been interchanged). This permits to interconnect connectors of different types by a cable wired pin-to-pin (straight cable).
Installation and Operation Manual Appendix C Operating Environment for the transmit and receive directions. Therefore, each node is capable of simultaneously transmitting and receiving (full-duplex operation), thereby doubling the effective data rate on the LAN. Most Ethernet interfaces are capable of operation at the two basic rates, 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps (such interfaces are designated 10/100BaseT). Therefore, four operating modes are possible.
Appendix C Operating Environment Installation and Operation Manual Basic Ethernet Frame Structure The frame transmitted by each node contains routing, management and error correction information. For Ethernet LANs, the characteristics of frames are defined by IEEE Standard 802.3. Basic frame lengths can vary from 72 to 1526 bytes and have the typical structure shown in Figure A-4.
Installation and Operation Manual Appendix C Operating Environment Bridging Communication between Nodes on Same LAN Unlike IP addresses, a MAC address is unique and identifies a single physical port. Therefore, two Ethernet nodes attached to the same LAN exchange frame directly, by specifying the desired MAC destination address, together with the source MAC address.

Installation and Operation Manual Appendix C Operating Environment ARP Protocol When sending IP packets over Ethernet, it is necessary to determine the MAC address of the destination, to insert it in the Ethernet destination MAC address of the packet. Actually, this is necessary for any physical transmission technology which is not limited to point-to-point topologies. This is performed by means of the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol), part of the IP suite of protocols.
