edgeGEAR 2000 SCM InitializationThe first time turn-up process allows you to set up IP Addresses, alarm logging, and location data that are unique to that chassis; You will also select a system clock source.The SCM performs system control functions. It monitors and stores the operational status of all plug-in slots and ONU assignments. It houses system clocking and provides alarm reports of abnormal conditions. It maintains system configuration profiles in flash-memory and contains the GigaVu server and communications links supporting the local manager functions. The SCM is also the system interface to the IP Network via two 1000BaseFX Ethernet ports. The first step in activating a system is to initialize and configure the SCM plug-ins.A computer equipped with a 10/100BaseT Network Interface Card (NIC), and running Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5.0 or above, is required for a GigaVu workstation. A Category 5 Cross-over cable is required for computer to SCM communications.The SCM 1000BaseFX port cabling requires a dual TX/RX fiber jumper with LC connectors. The 1000BaseFX service uses a 850 nm carrier for multi-mode and a 1310 nm carrier for single mode operation. A Multiple-λ Optical Power Meter is required to confirm proper operating levels at the fiber connections.

System TurnupTurn-up preparation is for first time activation of the edgeGEAR 2000 Chassis. The process includes a review of the GigaVu windows you will use, as well as the navigation and configuration data requirements.

Configure Link Aggregation on the SCM PortsSCM network port aggregation provides distribution of the ONU Ethernet ingress and egress traffic uniformly between both of the SCM network interface ports. This allows a larger pool of common bandwidth available for ONU Ethernet traffic, and enhances system reliability in the case of SCM network interface port congestion or outage. You aggregate the network communications ports for the active SCM module.

To aggregate network interface traffic on both SCM ports, proceed with the following:

1. From the Alloptic home window, click on the System Provisioning tab.

• The Chassis Configuration window is displayed.

2. Click on the Network Link tab.

• The Link Aggregation window is displayed.

3. Set the Link Aggregation Groups to the Port Group desired.4. Set the Max Port Bandwidth per your work order.5. Press Submit to update screen selections.

• The Port IfIndexes will change to match, 90001 for Port Group 1 or 90002 for Port Group 2.


Note: All existing ONU Ethernet traffic provisioned to transit the chassis via SCM Port 1 or 2 is now configured to transit the chassis via the SCM Port Group.

Note: Both ports must be configured to a fixed Admin State (Admin Type field). They cannot be set to Auto Negotiate.

If you also plan to use SCM Port 2 to transit upstream network interface traffic, change the Network Interface Port for all ONU Ethernet Users who need to access that SCM Port.

27



Configure Spanning Tree Based ForwardingThe edgeGEAR 2000 is a listening participant in Spanning Tree Protocol (STP). As a destination, it doesn’t return packets. It allows a single resilient path to be provisioned via the SCM Gigabit Ethernet ports. This provides logical layer redundancy in case one of the SCM links goes out of service. Only one of the two SCM Gig ports would ever be in the Spanning Tree forwarding state. In this way, a single path out of the SCM could be implemented. STP ensures no LAN loops exist within an Ethernet inter-network.

To provision Spanning Tree Protocol, proceed as follows.


2. Click on the Network Link tab.3. Click on the STP Forwarding tab.

• The STP Configuration window is displayed.

4. To use STP Forwarding on Port 1, set the Port 2 STP Anchor IfIndex field to Port Group 1.

• If the STP Anchor is set to the default, STP Forwarding will not be used.5. If you want to use Port 2 as the STP Anchor Port, set the Port 1 STP Anchor field to

Port Group 2.6. Press Submit.

• The Port IfIndexes will change to match the IfIndex of the Port Group selected.7. Save the new configuration.

Note: Link Aggregation cannot be active when configuring STP.

Chapter 4 OLT Configuration

OLT OverviewThe OLT plug-in module forwards packets from the ONU toward the SCM. It controls and manages the PON time slots for each ONU and monitors the state of all ONUs on the PON. The OLT also provides the chassis’ physical link to the PON toward the ONU via two 1-Gigabit PON ports. The OLT forwards and receives traffic without filtering or prioritization.Two types of OLT modules available in the Alloptic system. The OLTB002 has two 1-Gigabit interfaces to the PON network. The OLTC002 has two 1-Gigabit interfaces and two WDM ports available for Wavelength Division Multiplexing services. The PON ports must be provisioned in GigaVu, the WDM ports do not.On OLT PON connection port transmits at 1490 nm and receives at 1310 nm. The OLTC002 module is equipped with two WDM/Video ports that accept signals at 1540-1560 nm. The OLT port cabling uses SC/APC fiber connectors. The chassis supports up to 16 PONs in non-protected mode or 8 PONs in protected mode.The WDM signal rides the PON with the OLT/ONU traffic. The OLT and ONU provide passive transport of the WDM or RF video signals, which are inserted on the PON with the 1000BaseFX Ethernet traffic. An application for WDM is the transport of RF Video. The head-end signal is provided by an Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) or WDM Multiplexer. An ONU must be equipped with a WDM/video port and a Video-Demodulator to deliver the RF signal to customer equipment.

High Density provides 500 Mb bandwidth per PON and increases the PON density to 16. Lite mode provides 1 Gb bandwidth per PON and up to 8 PONs. Redundancy is supported in Lite mode only. OLT B/C cards in High Density mode may be placed in any adjacent slots and work independently of each other. In Lite or protected mode, two adjacent odd/even slots are populated. When the redundant OLT is initialized, both modules are configured for protected mode of operation.

OLT Placement for Unprotected ConfigurationsOLT modules can be placed in unprotected, adjacent (odd-even) numbered slots in the edgeGEAR 2000 chassis. In this configuration, if both OLTs are to be used for PON services, the following restriction applies:For OLT cards in Lite mode, only one PON may be provisioned per OLT, and the PONs must be configured in a different position with respect to vertical placement, e.g. if the OLT in the odd-numbered slot is provisioned to use the top PON port, the OLT in the right, adjacent, even-numbered slot must be provisioned to use the bottom PON port.These rules do not apply to OLT modules in adjacent even-odd numbered slots. The Alloptic system enforces OLT module protection with OLT modules always configured in even-numbered slots protecting OLT modules present in odd-numbered slots.OLT cards in high density mode may be placed in adjacent odd/even slots and work independently of each other.

OLT Redundant ConfigurationYou may configure OLTs to operate in Protected mode (see Figure 21). This involves installing a redundant OLT in the slot directly to the right of the primary OLT. The OLT are paired as follows:

• Slot 1 (primary) & slot 2 (redundant)• Slot 3 (primary) & slot 4 (redundant)• Slot 5 (primary) & slot 6 (redundant)• Slot 7 (primary) & slot 8 (redundant)

The SCM polls the active OLT every 3 seconds and initiates a switch-over to the redundant OLT in the following manner:

• After 3 polls if active OLT is non-responding• After 1 poll if active OLT is removed• Immediately if the active OLT is disabled using GigaVu™.

Note: The OLTA001 and OLTD001 cards (obsolete) operate in Lite Mode only.

Optical Hazard


With protected OLTs installed, cabling is set up to allow either OLT to access the PON. The system does not currently provide redundancy for RF video or WDM services. It will only provide redundancy for data and voice services, or those services that are riding over the Alloptic Ethernet PON.

Chapter 5 NIM Preparation

NIM OverviewThe NIM (Network Interface Module) cards are installed in slots 11 and 12 only. They have six Gigabit Ethernet interfaces per card providing links to the service provider’s network. These six ports when added to the two Gigabit capacity on the SCM cards allow for a total chassis bandwidth of 8000 Mbps. The NIM enables multiple service capabilities, such as VOIP, IP Video, and Data. Each GigE port may be equipped with an SFP to provide short haul or long haul fiber connectivity to the IP network.

The NIM can also be used to provide dedicated links between multiple chassis. The NIM supports transparent VLANs between multiple Chassis by enabling dedicated Chassis-to-Chassis links without a router in between. The NIM cards offer the exact same network interface features as the SCM.

Figure 26: edgeGEAR 2000 NIM Chassis Provisioning

Note: If a NIM and DS3 are installed on the same system, port 6 cannot be used. See the Port 6 Available box on the NIM Module Screen.

NIM Redundant Configuration


NIM Module ConfigurationNIM Redundant Configuration

NIMs can be configured to operate in unprotected or protected mode. Protected mode involves installing a redundant NIM in slot 12. With two cards installed, cabling is established that allows either NIM to access the data network. Normally, NIM 11 is active and NIM 12 is standby. The SCM polls the primary NIM every three seconds. It initiates a switchover to the redundant if the primary NIM does not respond, is removed or disabled. The standby is re-initialized in the active mode.

BITS Clock 1


System Clock Source OverviewThe edgeGEAR 2000 system requires a timing source to synchronize both internal and external communications for TDM services. The timing sources are, Primary Bits, secondary Bits, DS3, and internal.The two RJ45 Connectors at the top of the BNC card are receptacles for BITS Clock sources. The two clock inputs are routed through the backplane to the SCM slots for System Clock use. The BITS Clock, when available, is the preferred timing source for an Alloptic chassis. If a BITS Clock source is not available, other timing sources can be used.When connected to the PSTN, the edgeGEAR 2000 must derive its system timing from the network connection. When not connected to the PSTN, the system derives its timing from the Internal Clock housed in the SCM. The internal source is a free running Stratum 3 Clock. The provisioning process allows you to identify Primary and Secondary timing from various sources. The third, or tertiary source, always uses the SCM internal clock. It provides a fallback when external timing sources fail. The use of a highly stable clock is essential to the system’s performance.

Chapter 8 DS1 System Clock Provisioning

DS1 Clock Source OverviewWhen configuring TDM services for operation with network interfaces, an external timing source must be used. The DS1 Interface Configuration window allows you to enable one or more DS1 circuits for system clocking. This is done when the DS3M Chassis timing option is enabled in the System Clock Selection window. When it is enabled, the system uses the first enabled DS1 as its clocking source. If that source fails, the system will step through the enabled DS1 in descending order to locate the next available clock source.When operating in protected mode, it is only necessary to provision DS1 interface settings for the active DS3M module, normally in Slot 13. Both modules share configuration data as well as access to the BNC connectors. If the DS3 Timing Source is enabled:

• At least one DS1 must be assigned as a clock source before any TDM services can become operational.

• The Admin State must be set to Enabled and the Clock Source set to Yes for each DS1 providing clocking.

Appendix B - Product Repair and Return

Product Repair and ReturnThe Alloptic Service Group manages all repair and return with our Operations group responsible for all of the actual repair activity. Customers who require Return Material Authorization (RMA) or advance replacement equipment should contact Alloptic during normal business hours to receive assistance. Service Operations issues RMAs and will provide assistance for the shipment and return of materials. RMA numbers must be prominently displayed on the returned material shipping container and referenced in all correspondence pertaining to returned materials.Out-of-warranty repair is billed on a Time and Materials basis, regardless of defect. Customers will receive repaired or replacement equipment within 30 days of its receipt by Alloptic. Alloptic Service Operations maintains an inventory of warranty replacement product for the specific purpose of exchange for failures. Two types of inventory are maintained: new product and refurbished product. Out-of-box failures are replaced with new product. In-warranty products that fail in service shall be replaced with new or refurbished material, depending on the situation. Refurbished parts purchased to replace out-of-warranty material carry a six (6) month warranty. An extended warranty is not available for refurbished stock items. Returns are managed through the Return Material Authorization (RMA) process described below, except for replacement made as part of a Class A or AC PCN (Product Change Notice). That process is discussed separately elsewhere in this section.

NOTE: No service adjustments or repairs of laser devices are available to field forces. Return plug-in cards, ONUs, and tvGEAR components to Alloptic for repair or service of the lasers.


RMA ProcessWhen a customer contacts Alloptic and requests an RMA(s) for defective product, the customer is connected to Service Operations, where a representative opens an RMA file. RMA requests are handled during normal working hours (8:00 AM to 5:00PM, Pacific Time) Monday through Friday (holidays excepted). See “System Failures or Critical Situations” for after hours/weekend/holiday assistance.Customers are asked to provide information that is logged into a pending-RMA file:

• Customer name, location, and where to send replacement• Emergency or non-emergency status• Alloptic part number, description, serial number• Software/firmware revision level• Out-of-box or field failure information• Nature of problem / defect• Testing or troubleshooting procedure used to determine defect

The customer is then given an RMA number. This number must be prominently displayed on the box or shipping package containing the defective product.

Widespread EmergencyIn the event of a natural disaster or other emergency causing an extensive out-of-service condition or service degradation, and upon notification by the customer, Alloptic shall commence within 4 hours of notification, emergency restoration procedures to provide recovery support, repair services, and / or replacement material. Alloptic’s full capabilities will be made available to its customers in the event of a catastrophe.
