ATPC Adaptive Transmission Power Control


To address this issue, online transmission power control that adapts to

In ATPC, each node builds a model for each of its neighbors, describing the

With this model, we employ a feedback-based transmission power control
algorithm to dynamically maintain individual link quality over time.

MRMC Adaptive TX Power

MRMC Adaptive TX Power


Designed to work with ACM in certain scenarios to allow higher Tx power
available at lower order modulation schemes for a given modulation scheme.

When Adaptive TX is disabled:


Maximum TX power is limited by the highest modulation configured in the MRMC ACM
script.
In other words, when link suffers signal degradation, modulation may change from
256QAM to QPSK. However, Max. power will be limited to the value corresponding as
Max. TX in 256QAM.

When Adaptive TX is Enable:


When link suffers signal degradation, modulation may change from 256QAM to QPSK.
However, Max. power will increase to compensate for the signal degradation.

MSE - Definition

MSE is used to quantify the difference between an estimated (expected)


value and the true value of the quantity being estimated
MSE measures the average of the squared errors:
MSE is a sort of aggregated error by which the expected value differs
from the quantity to be estimated.
The difference occurs because of randomness or because the receiver
does not account for information that could produce a more accurate
estimated RSL

To simplify.

Imagine a production line where a machine needs to insert one part


into the other
Both devices must perfectly match
Let us assume the width has to be 10mm wide
We took a few of parts and measured them to see how many can
fit in.

We convert all errors to absolute values and then we square them


The squared values give bigger differences more weight than smaller
differences, resulting in a more powerful statistics tool:
16cm parts are 36 units away than 2cm parts which are only 4 units away

width

To evaluate the total errors, we sum all the squared errors and take the
average:
16 + 9 + 0 + 4 + 36 = 65, Average (MSE) = 13

The bigger the errors (differences) >> the bigger MSE becomes

If all parts were perfectly produced than each error would be 0
This would result in MSE = 0

When the radio is in optimal conditions, MSE is near -35dB


When MSE drops below -27.5dB, we will experience high BER
To avoid High BER we change the profile when MSE reaches -31dB
Now that the radio is @ profile 6, the MSE must improve to -32.5 to recover

Traffic Prioritization
When ACM is enabled and link degrades, highest priority services are
maintained while low services are dropped
When link capacity is recovered, low services are recovered as well
QoS is applied first to drop ETH low services
(e.g. Customer is advised to assign configure QoS to maintain In-Band
Management when link capacity degrades)
E1/T1 traffic has higher priority over Ethernet traffic
Each E1/T1 can be configured as High/Low priority
TDM Low priority is dropped first
TDM High priority is dropped according to order of configuration

Tagging a Frame

VLAN ID uses 12 bits, therefore the number of maximum VLANs is 4096:


2^12 = 4096
VID 0 = reserved
VID 4090-4096 = reserved (dedicated for IP-10s internal purposes such as MNG etc.)
VID 1 = default

After tagging a frame, FCS is recalculated


CFI is set to 0 for ETH frames, 1 for Token Ring to allow TR frames over
ETH backbones (some vendors may use CFI for internal purposes)

Introduction to QoS / CoS

21

Mapping ATM QoS over ETH CoS (RFC 1483)


We can extend the benefits of ATM QoS into Ethernet LANs to guarantee Ethernet priorities
across the ATM backbone. A L2 switch or L3 router reads incoming 802.1p or IP ToS priority
bits, and classifies traffic accordingly.
To match the priority level with the appropriate ATM service class and other parameters, the
switch then consults a mapping table with pre-defined settings.

Native2 Microwave Radio Technology


At the heart of the IP-10 solution is Ceragon's market-leading Native2

microwave technology.
With this technology, the microwave carrier supports native IP/Ethernet
traffic together with optional native PDH
PDH.
Neither traffic type is mapped over the other, while both dynamically share
the same overall bandwidth.
This unique approach allows you to plan and build optimal all-IP or hybrid
TDM-IP backhaul networks which make it ideal for any RAN (Radio Access
Network)

In addition, Native2 ensures:


Very low link latency of <0.15 msecs @ 400 Mbps.
Very low overhead mapping for both ETH & TDM traffic
High precision native TDM synchronization distribution

Route the IF Coax Cable from the IDU to the ODU/RFU and terminate it
with N-type male connectors.
Note: Make sure you fasten the cable along the ladder!
Make sure that the inner pin of the connector does not exceed the
edge of the connector.
The cable should have a maximum attenuation of 30 dB at 350 MHz.

General notes on CLI

IP-10:/>

Note that the

> sign indicates your current directory in the CLI tree

Most of the CLI commands are based on GET/SET concept


Some commands may require a different syntax
Ceragon strongly recommends to use CLI only for setting management IP
address when current IP is unknown
All functions & features can be configured faster and easier using the WEB
based EMS

Connecting IDU to EMS


1. Connect your EMS/NMS to the IDU (port 7) with ETH CAT.5 cable
2. Verify that your PCs IP is in the same subnet
3 Make sure Link is up
3.
4. PING the IDU
5. Launch a WEB browser with the URL set as the IDUs IP

9
Proprietary and Confidential

Management Troubleshooting
In case PC cannot PING IDU
1. Check your ETH cable it might not be inserted properly (broken PIN)
2. Verify the management port is enabled in the EMS General/Management
configuration
3. Make sure you connect to a management-enabled port (7, 6 or 5)
4. Verify right LED is ON (see below)
5. Verify your PC is in the same subnet as the IDU
6. In case your IDU is connected to a router: set the IDUs Default GW = Router IP
7. In case your PC is connected to several IDUs (through switch/hub) make sure
every IDU has a unique IP
When ON (Green) = Port is set to Management
When OFF = Port is set to Data

Any traffic coming from any GbE interface will be sent directly to the radio and
vice versa.
This application allows QoS configuration.
Other FE (10/100) interfaces can be configured to be "functional" interfaces
(WSC, Protection, Management), otherwise they are shut down.
Note: (CQ20473): Single pipe discards PAUSE PDU (01-80-C2-00-00-01)

VLAN TAG Attributes


1.

In L2 ETH switching, L2 traffic can be engineered using the VLAN TAG


attributes

2.

L2 traffic is controlled by defining port membership: Access or Trunk

3.

Together, port membership + L2 traffic engineering convert


connectionless to connection-oriented network

4.

In such networks, services are better deployed and maintained

5.

VLAN TAG attributes include:


VLAN ID (12 bits)
Priority Bits (3 bits)

5.

Additional attributes may be used to engineer traffic:


MAC DA
Port number

Proprietary and Confidential

Access Port

Access Port is a port which is aware of a single VLAN only

Ingress
g
traffic is expected to be Untagged,
gg
e.g.
g no VLAN
information exists within the received Ethernet frame

All frames that are received through this port are tagged with
default VLAN (VID + P bits)

All frames that exit through this port towards customer devices are
untagged (VLAN is removed)

Users can configure the L2 switch to assign different tagging


scenarios to different ports

Proprietary and Confidential

General Overview
Ceragon Networks ring solution enhances the RSTP algorithm for ring
topologies, accelerating the failure propagation relative to the regular
RSTP:
Relations between Root and Designated bridges when ring is converged in the
first time is the same as defined in the standard RSTP. Ring-RSTP itself is
different than classic RSTP, as it exploits the topology of the ring, in order to
accelerate convergence.
Ethernet-Fast-Ring-RSTP will use the standard RSTP BPDUs:
01-80-C2-00-00-00.
The ring is revertible. When the ring is set up, it is converged according to
RSTP definitions. When a failure appears (e.g. LOF is raised), the ring is
converged. When the failure is removed (e.g. LOF is cleared) the ring reverts
back to its original state, still maintaining service disruption limitations.
RSTP PDUs coming from Edge ports are discarded (and not processed or
broadcasted).

Proprietary and Confidential

Page 189

3/7/2010

Ring RSTP Limitations


1. Ring RSTP is a proprietary implementation of Ceragon Networks, and
cannot interwork with other Ring RSTP implementations of other 3rd party
vendors.
2. Ring RSTP can be activated only in Managed Switch application, and is not
available in any other switch application (Single Pipe or Metro).
3. Ring RSTP should NOT be running with protection 1+1.

Proprietary and Confidential

Site / Node Types


The ring can be constructed by two types of nodes/sites:
1. Node/Site Type A:
The site is connected to the ring with one Radio interface (e.g. East) and one
Line interface (e.g. West).
The site contains only one IP-10 IDU. The Radio interface towards one
direction (e.g. East), and one of the Gigabit (Copper or Optical) interfaces,
towards the second direction (e.g. West).
Other line interfaces are in edge mode, meaning, they are user interfaces,
and are not part of the ring itself.

Proprietary and Confidential

Page 190

3/7/2010

Site / Node Types


The ring can be constructed by two types of nodes/sites:
2. Node/Site Type B:
The site is connected with Radios to both directions of the ring (e.g. East &
West).
Site contains two IDUs. Each IDU support the Radio in one direction
One IDU runs with the Ring RSTP, and the second
runs in Single pipe mode.
Both IDUs are connected via Gigabit interface
(either optical or electrical).
Other line interfaces are in edge mode.

Proprietary and Confidential

Switchover / Convergence Criteria


The following failures will initiate convergence:
Radio LOF
Link ID mismatch.
Radio Excessive BER (optional)
ACM profile is below pre-determined threshold (optional).
Line LOC
Node cold reset (Pipe and/or Switch).
Node power down (Pipe and/or Switch)
xSTP port disable / enable

Proprietary and Confidential

Page 191

3/7/2010

In-Band Management (1)


In this scenario, management is part of the data traffic, thus, management is
protected with the traffic when the ring is re-converged as a result of a ring
failure.
Managed Switch IDUs will be configured to In-Band, while Single Pipe
IDUs will be configured to Out-of-Band.
Single Pipe nodes will be connected with external Ethernet cable to the
Managed Switch for management.
The reason for that requirement is the automatic state propagation
behavior of the Single Pipe that shuts down its GbE traffic port upon failure,
thus, management might be lost to it.

In-Band Management (2)

Page 192

3/7/2010

Out of band Management (1)


In this scenario, all elements (Single pipe and Managed Switch IDUs)
should be configured to Out-of-band, with WSC enabled. Management will
be delivered over WSC.

External xSTP switch should be used in order to gain resilient management,


and resolve the management loops.

Understanding QoS

Why do we need QoS? (1)


Without controlling our Backbone /Core infrastructure High cost of non-responsiveness: devices are deployed but not properly
allocated to transport customer traffic
On the other hand bad resource design results in congestion which will lead
to network downtime costs due to degradation of performance
QoS (e.g. - Traffic Engineering) optimizes
network resources

Using Queues
Every port of the L2 switch examines the ingress traffic and then it sorts it in a
buffer according to classification criteria
This process is called Queuing

ATPC Adaptive Transmission Power Control


To address this issue, online transmission power control that adapts to
external changes is necessary.
In ATPC, each node builds a model for each of its neighbors, describing the
correlation between transmission power and link quality.
With this model, we employ a feedback-based transmission power control
algorithm to dynamically maintain individual link quality over time.

MRMC Adaptive TX Power

Page 238

4/30/2010

MRMC Adaptive TX Power


Designed to work with ACM in certain scenarios to allow higher Tx power
available at lower order modulation schemes for a given modulation scheme.

When Adaptive TX is disabled:


Maximum TX power is limited by the highest modulation configured in the MRMC ACM
script.
In other words, when link suffers signal degradation, modulation may change from
256QAM to QPSK. However, Max. power will be limited to the value corresponding as
Max. TX in 256QAM.

When Adaptive TX is Enable:


When link suffers signal degradation, modulation may change from 256QAM to QPSK.
However, Max. power will increase to compensate for the signal degradation.

MRMC Multi Rate Multi Coding


Users may set the radio to a fixed capacity or automatic adaptive capacity using ACM.
ACM radio script is constructed of a set of profiles.
Each profile is defined by modulation order (QAM) and coding rate, while these
parameters dictate profiles capacity (bps).
When ACM script is activated, system chooses automatically which profile to use
according to the channel fading conditions.
ACM TX profile can be different than ACM RX profile.
ACM TX profile is determined by remote RX MSE performance.
RX end is the one that initiates ACM profile upgrade or downgrade.
When MSE is improved above predefined threshold, RX generates a request to the
remote TX to upgrade its profile.
If MSE degrades below a predefined threshold, RX generates a request to the remote
TX to downgrade its profile.

Supported PHYs:
E1
DS1
Dynamic allocation:
Radio bandwidth (which may vary in ACM) is automatically allocated in the
following order:
1. High-priority TDM trails
2. Low-priority TDM trails
3. Ethernet traffic (Data + Management, QoS should be considered)
TDM trails in both sides of a link should have identical priorities.

Proprietary and Confidential

TDM Ports Configuration Standalone IDU

E1/DS1 port #n will be mapped to


radio VC#n (n=1-16).
When Trails are configured, default
mapping (above) is overwritten by Trail
Mapping.
However, if no trails are configured (all
are deleted) system will revert to the
default setting.
When Trail is configured and set to
Operational - TDM port is activated.
When Trail is configured but set to
Reserved - TDM port is disabled.

AIS Line Detection


This feature allows detection of AIS
signals in TDM traffic incoming from line
interfaces (E1/DS1, STM-1):

In case of detection, the following takes place:


Signal failure is generated at the corresponding trail this will cause the
far end not to receive a signal (including trail ID indications) and the trail
status to show signal failure and trail ID mismatch.
An indication is given to user at the proper interface. Notice that this is
not a system alarm, since the problem originates elsewhere in the
Network

J0 trace identifier is fully supported in both
15-byte and 1-byte modes:
An alarm will be raised when the expected string

Transmit, Expected and Received strings are
provided.
If a string is defined and user changes the length
from 15 bytes to 1 byte, the first byte will be analyzed

In this case, remote system is managed using Wayside channel.
On both local & remote units, Wayside channel will be connected to management port
(using cross Ethernet cable).
WSC can be configured to "narrow capacity (~64kbps) or "wide" capacity (~2Mbps).
It is recommended to use wide WSC in order to get better management performance,
since narrow WSC might be too slow.

Introduction

Page 256

3/7/2010

SNCP (ITU- G.805)

Ring topologies provide path protection for Ethernet or TDM signals

In some scenarios additional protection is required

The IP-10G Path-Protection is based on SNCP


(Sub-network Connection Protection)

Individual E1/T1 trails will be protected by defining two separate trails, with the same
end-points, which are routed through two different paths in the network

The end-points may be line interfaces or radio VCs, so partial path protection can
be provided for a trail in a network where full path redundancy topology is not
available

The end-points are also referred to as branching-points

Proprietary and Confidential

SNCP (ITU- G.805)

With Wireless SNCP, a backup VC trail


can be optionally defined for each

Trail Configuration Guidelines

XC Trails Guidelines (1)


1. XC Trails can be configured only via Main unit
2. All Trails are transported through main unit(s)
3. When Protection is enabled, configure trails to go via the Active unit
(XC Trails are automatically created on the STBY unit)
4. T-Cards (TDM / SDH) are not hot-swappable, do not extract / insert card
when IDU is powered up
5. Radio VCs must be identical on both sides of the radio link

12

Proprietary and Confidential

Page 261

XC Trails Guidelines (2)


5. Creating a TDM trail automatically activates the corresponding TDM port,
therefore an alarm will display next to the relevant T-Card accommodating
the activated port(s)
7. XC Trails can be configured between:

Radio to Line
Line to Radio
Radio to Radio

8. Maximum number of Trails per Node = 180


9. Maximum number of Trails per Radio = 75 (E1) or 84 (T1) or 168 (SNCP)

failures back to the line, to improve the recovery performance of resiliency protocols
(such as xSTP).
The feature allows the user to configure which criteria will force GbE port (or ports in case
of remote fault) to be muted / shut down, in order to allow the network find alternative

IEEE Definition:

Link Aggregation allows one or more links to be aggregated


together to form a Link Aggregation Group
Group, such that a MAC
Client can treat the Link Aggregation Group as if it were a
single link

The Link Aggregation Group is consisting of N parallel


instances of full duplex point-to-point links operating at the
same data rate

Benefits of using Link Aggregation


1. Increased aggregate bandwidth
Link Aggregation allows the establishment of full duplex point-to-point links
that have a higher aggregate bandwidth than the individual links that form the
aggregation.
The capacity of the multiple links is combined into one logical link.

Benefits of using Link Aggregation


2. Improved Resiliency

When multiple ports are allocated between 2 Routers, Routing Protocols are required to

Benefits of using Link Aggregation


5. Improved Network Efficiency / Security
For sites with limited IP address space that nevertheless require large amounts of
bandwidth, you need only one IP address for a large aggregation of interfaces.
For sites that need to hide the existence of internal interfaces, the IP address of
the aggregation hides its interfaces from external applications.

LAG Distribution Policy


Traffic sent to ports in a group is distributed through a load balancing function.
Two methods are available for Link Aggregation Group traffic distribution:

1. Simple XOR:
In this method the 3 LSBs of DA and SA are XORed and the result is used to select
one of the ports in the group.
This method can be used for testing & debugging.

2. Hash (default):
In this method the hash function (used by the traffic switch for address table lookups)
is used to select one of the ports in the group.
This provides better statistical load balancing.

1. Only traffic ports (including radio port) can belong to a LAG
2. Management ports / WSC ports cannot be grouped in a LAG
3. LAG is supported in IDUs configured as Managed or Metro switch
4. LAG is not supported in a Single Pipe mode
5. All ports in a LAG must be in the same IDU (same switch)
6. There may be up to 3 LAGs per IDU
7. A LAG may contain from 1 to 5 physical ports

Removing a Port from LAG


Ports removed from a LAG will keep the existing port parameters, but will
be initially disabled in order to prevent loops.

In addition, when the last port is removed from a LAG, the LAG will be
deleted.

Therefore it is necessary to remove all MEP/MIPs from a LAG before


removing the last port.

CFM: WHY ?

By definition, L3 IP or L2 ETH are Connection-less networks

In connection-less networks we are blind unable to determine packet path


or latency

This makes troubleshooting and maintenance a harder task

Solution: we need to convert our Connection-less network into a


Connection-Oriented network

IN

Connection-Less

Connection-Oriented
Proprietary and Confidential

Advanced Operation & Maintenance Course

Page 315

CFM: WHY ?

Connection-Oriented networks (ATM, IP/MPLS) enable administrators setting a


pre-defined packet path, reserving BW per service, faster event detection and
thus effective troubleshooting & maintenance

Such technologies are too expensive and sometimes not feasible for Mobile
Operators / Mobile Backhaul solutions

Solution: use a cheaper technology with enhanced features:

Ethernet Core + Operations, Administration & Maintenance support (CFM)

CFM enables L3 operations


such as Traceroute and
PING with a simpler ETH
infrastructure
Connection-Oriented

Proprietary and Confidential

Preliminary Configuration

1. Make sure you define the required VLAN IDs in the Switch DB prior to OAM
configuration
2. Prepare a Network Design Map with required configuration
(MIP / MEP / IDs / MAC per device.)
4. Make sure IP-10 Interfaces are configured according to your Network Criteria
(Trunk / Port VID Membership ).
5. Every CFM interface (including Radio) must be aware of the required VIDs
(Port membership)

6. CFM requires physical connection, therefore make sure your interfaces are
enabled on both sides (DCE and DTE)

General
This guide explains how to work with the FibeAir IP-10 web based License Management System.
The system enables authorised users to obtain license-related information and perform license-related
operations.

Getting Started
To start the management application:
1.

In your web browser, go to the address http://80.74.99.83/LMManage/login.aspx

2.

To log in to the system, enter your user name and password, and then click Login.
Note the following user name rules:

FibeAir IP-10 License Management System

For Demo OEM, the first five digits must be 00001. The next four digits after the first five should
be numbered starting with 0001 for end users. For example, the number 000010001 would mean
that Demo OEM end user 0001 is entering the system.
For users other than Demo OEM, the user name must start with 00000. For example, the number
000000001 would mean that non-Demo OEM user 0001 is entering the system.
For OEM Users
3a. If you enter as an OEM user, the following web page appears:

One of two modes can be selected:


Administrator (Demo OEM option) - The administrator can assign licenses and devices to
customers, who can be either another OEM customer or Demo OEM. In this mode of operation,
the OEM admin can assign licenses/devices to end users (including themself) and can generate
license keys for the devices.
End User (Customer option) - The OEM end user, or the OEM itself can generate keys for self
use. In this mode, the user can only generate licenses based on the available device database.
The user can only view his/her own devices (that were assigned to that user) and licenses.

FibeAir IP-10 License Management System

End users that belong to that channel cannot see devices or licenses that belong to the OEM or other
customers.
After you select the operating mode, the following web page appears:

CeraView User Guide

For Non-OEM Users


3b. If you enter as a non-OEM user the following web page appears:
Note that a channel or OEM user can also enter as one of their customers. In this case, the system
identifies the user as a channel/OEM user and will display a drop-down list to enable entry under the
user's name. This will be done to allow operations for devices that the user sent to his/her customers.
