1) Creating NEs in Batches
When the U2000 communicates properly with a GNE, you can search for all NEs that communicate with the GNE by
using the IP address of the GNE or the network segment to which the IP address is associated. Then, you can create
NEs in batches. This method is quicker and more accurate than manual creation.
Procedure
Choose File > Discovery > NE from the main menu.
Click the Transport NE Search tab.
Optional: Enter the network segment or IP addresses NEs to search for the NEs.
Click Add and the Input Search Domain dialog box is displayed.
Set Address type to IP Address Range of GNE, IP Address of GNE and enter Search Address, User
Name, and Password. Then, click OK.

NOTE:
You can repeat Steps a through b to add more search domains. You can delete the system default
search domain.
If you use IP address to search for NEs:
Usually, the broadcast function is disabled on the routers on a network, to avoid network
broadcast storm. Therefore, by using the IP Address Range of GNE method, only the NEs
in the same network segment can be searched out.
To search the network segments across routers, the IP Address of GNE method is
recommended. Through a gateway NE, you can search out the NEs in the network segment
of the gateway NE.
Optional: If you fail to enter a network segment correctly, enable IP auto discovery and enter the User Name
and Password of the NEs.
NOTE:
After enabling IP auto discovery, you can obtain the IP address of the GNE and search out all the NEs
related to the GNE.
If the U2000 and an gateway NE are connected through a router, you need to create an NE by using the IP
address of the gateway NE.
In the Search for NE area, perform the following operations:
PTN CONFIGURATION GUIDE

exact as creating NEs in batches, you can use this method regardless of whether the data is configured on the NE or
not.
Prerequisites
You must be an NM user with "Transmission Network NM operator" authority or higher.
The NE Explorer instance of the NEs must be created.

services are available between BTS and BSC that are connected to NE1. NE1 uses the OptiX PTN 1900 to access the
services from the base stations, and NE2, NE3, NE4 and NE5 use the OptiX PTN 3900, NE6 uses the OptiX PTN 1900.
Tunnels should be configured between NE1 and NE3.
If the service requires high network security, configure the MPLS APS protection to ensure service transmission.
Working tunnel: NE1-NE2-NE3. NE2 is a transit node.
Protection tunnel: NE1-NE6-NE5-NE4-NE3. NE6, NE5, and NE4 are transit nodes. When the working tunnel
becomes faulty, the service on it is switched to the protection tunnel for protection.

18 ) Creating a UNI-UNI E-Line Service on a Per-NE Basis
A UNI-UNI E-Line service indicates that users can be interconnected through equipment. The Ethernet data packets do
not pass the network side, but are transparently transmitted at the user side.
Prerequisite
If a port need be exclusively used, disable the DCN function of the port that carries the service.
Procedure
1. In the NE Explorer, select an NE and choose Configuration > Ethernet Service Management > E-Line
Service from Function Tree.
PTN CONFIGURATION GUIDE
Page 38 of 42
2. Click the UNI tab and click New. The New E-Line Service dialog box is displayed.


19 ) Creating a UNI-NNI E-Line Service Carried by a Port
The service is accessed at the user side, and transported to one port at the network side for carrying. In this way, user
data can be transparently transmitted in a point-to-point manner. In this way, this port is exclusively used.
Prerequisite
You must be an NM user with "Transmission Network NE operator" authority or higher.
If a port need be exclusively used, disable the DCN function of the port that carries the service. For details, see
Enabling the Port DCN.
Procedure
1. Select the NE in the NE Explorer. Choose Configuration > Ethernet Service Management > E-Line
Service from Function Tree.
PTN CONFIGURATION GUIDE
Page 39 of 42
2. Click the UNI tab and click New. The New E-Line Service dialog box is displayed.



20 ) Creating a UNI-NNI E-Line Service Carried by a PW on a Per-NE Basis
The service is accessed at the user side, and transported to one PW at the network side for carrying. In this way, user
data can be transparently transmitted in a point-to-point manner. For such a application, create a UNI-NNI E-Line
service carried by a PW.
Prerequisite
If the service need be carried by an MPLS Tunnel, you must configure a tunnel first..
Procedure
1. Select the NE in the NE Explorer. Choose Configuration > Ethernet Service Management > E-Line
Service from Function Tree.
PTN CONFIGURATION GUIDE
Page 40 of 42
2. Click the UNI tab and click New. The New E-Line Service dialog box is displayed.

PTN CONFIGURATION GUIDE
Page 41 of 42
4. Click Configure PW. The Configure PW dialog box is displayed. In the PW General Attributes tab, set PW-
related parameters.

NOTE:
PW Type can be set to Ethernet or Ethernet Tagged Mode.
Ethernet: The original C/SVlan tag of user packets is encapsulated in a PW without any change and
then is transparently transmitted to the downstream stations.
Ethernet Tagged Mode: A VLAN tag is stuck to user packets. To stick the VLAN tag, set Request
VLAN in Advanced Attributes.
Tunnel selection mode can be set to Manually or Auto Select.
Manually: In this mode, you need to manually select a created tunnel.
Auto Select: In this mode, the equipment automatically select a matched tunnel according to the
specified tunnel selection policy and opposite LSR ID.
PTN CONFIGURATION GUIDE
Page 42 of 42
5. Optional: Click the Tunnel Selection tab and select the preferred type of tunnels that carry the service.
Then, click to move the type to the front.

NOTE:
In the tunnel type list, the top tunnel type is the most preferred and the bottom tunnel type is the least
preferred. When the more preferred tunnels are insufficient, the less preferred tunnels are selected.
6. In the QoS tab, set the parameters related to PW QoS according to network planning.
NOTE:
In the PW Ingress direction, Bandwidth Limit can be set to Enabled. In this case, you can set
CIR(Kbit/s) and PIR(Kbit/s) for the PW, or you can also select a proper QoS policy in Policy. Before
selecting a policy, you need to create a policy.
In the PW Ingress direction, a PW policy can be set. You can select a proper PW policy from the
created PW policies.
In the PW Ingress direction, EXP can be set to a value in the range of 0 to 7. "0" indicates the lowest
priority and "7" indicates the highest priority.
In the PW Egress direction, you can set the LSP mode.
7. In the Advanced Attributes tab, set the parameters related to the PW control word. To conduct a PW ping
test, set Control Word to Preferred Use.
8. Click OK to finish the PW-related settings and PW attribute settings.
9. Click OK to finish the creation.
