7. NE Administration
The 1830 PSS-32 system supports three types of shelves: universal and
flex (DCM and SFD).
Universal shelf
The universal shelf is the basic building block for the 1830 PSS-32 network
element (NE). It provides a framework for all active modules in a system
(such as controller, interface cards, etc.).
Flex shelf
Flex shelf holds the DCM and SFDs. Flex shelves are passive module shelves
that hold DCM and SFD44/44B modules, attenuator, and fiber storage trays in
19 inch, 23 inch and ANSI configurations. In the ETSI rack the SFDs and DCM
shelf mount upright in the rack.
DCM and SFD modules provide dispersion compensation and optical
mux/demux function associated with core optics modules (line drivers and
CWR8, respectively) that are present in the universal shelf. Each 1830 PSS-32
Network Element (NE) may include up to 16 universal shelves and up to 40
DCM/SFD shelves.
Conditions Limits
Temperature
Relative Humidity
• Operating 5% to 85%
• Short-term 5% to 90%, but not to exceed
0.024kg water/kg of dry air
Provides the interface between the cards and the shelf, and the electrical
connectivity between the cards inserted in the shelf.
Used to supply power to the cards and transfer data and control information
across the shelf.
When you insert a card into the shelf, the female connectors on the card
mate with the high-density male electrical connectors located on the
backplane to make the connection.
No customer traffic flows across the shelf backplane (all traffic runs through
optical fibers connecting card faceplate connectors).
DCM Shelf
A DCM enclosure can hold a maximum of 16 DCM modules (1/4 high)
The system models each DCM module as a separate shelf
The inventory port of the DCM can be connected to an inventory port on a LD
card
SFD Shelf
The SFD44/SFD44B (44-channel DWDM static filter) is modeled as an SFD shelf
with a SFD44/SFD44B
The inventory port of the SFD44/SFD44B can be connected to an inventory port
on a CWR8/CRW8-88 card
Refer to the “Product and Information Planning Guide”, PN 8DG59474 AAAA, for

FOADM Topology
Fixed Optical Add Drop Mux (FOADM) optimizes for lowest cost by using
static optical filters for multiplexing/demultiplexing
Optimization is obtained by offering two FOADM filter choices, a full-
band 44/88-channel architecture (SFD44/44B) and a scalable 5-channel
filter architecture (SFD5)
Static filters require that optical transponders need to be fibered to the
correct wavelength ports on the filter faceplates, and any re-
configurability requires manual re-arrangement of the fibers
A FOADM line terminal configuration has one optical line at the ends of a
point-to-point link where OT(s) terminate all wavelengths
FOADM must be manually managed/configured - powers are not
automatically adjusted

User Interfaces
The OAMP and VoIP ports on the USRPNL are disabled by default
The ports designated as the OAMP and Craft ports on the USRPNL, support
access to the CLI commands.
Craft Interface
Two craft ports including a female (DB9) and a USB-B port
Both ports support local RS-232C serial interface for connection to a CIT via
serial link
Either the DB9 port or the USB-B port can be used to connect serially to the NE
Only one port can be active at any given time. The NE automatically detects
the presence of a laptop (or any equivalent active device) when it is connected
to the USB-B port on the USRPNL
When both USB-B port and DB9 ports are simultaneously connected, preference
is given to the USB-B
The basic communications network architecture for the 1830 PSS-32 includes all
LAN interfaces, OSC interfaces, and GCC interfaces
LAN interfaces include the OAMP, VoIP, CIT, and Extension Shelf (ES)
connections
Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC)
OSC carries node-to-node communication
The OSC is a separate optical channel, operating at the STM-1/OC-3 rate of 155 Mb/s,
that transfers management and control information between the ECs of two adjacent
nodes, regardless of whether any of the DWDM payload channels are terminated
between those two nodes
General communications channel (GCC)
No OSC available in CWDM transmission, so the GCC0 bytes in the G.709 overhead are
used for inter-node communication
For management connection extension to 1830 PSS-1 Edge Device
Gateway network element (GNE)
The network management system can manage an 1830 PSS-32 network while only
connecting to a single 1830 PSS-32 NE. That NE is called a GNE and provides the
management connectivity to all other 1830 PSS-32 NEs in the network
Each NE connected to the management network through the OAMP LAN port
The OAMP LAN port supports 10/100 and auto-negotiates accordingly
Configure the following attributes on each NE:
• OAMP IP address

1354 RM-PhM alarms are marked as New until they have been processed by
the alarm correlation function
The 1354 RM-PhM examines each alarm it receives to determine the root
cause
• 1354 RM-PhM alarm correlation works by analyzing each alarm and finding the
corresponding light path. For each alarmed light path it analyzes its alarms to
determine which are root causes and which are sympathetic (masked) alarms, and
sets the status accordingly
After an alarm is processed, its status is set to either Root Cause or Masked
If a common root cause for multiple alarms can be determined, and if the
alarm correlation capability is enabled, the 1354 RM-PhM can group the
related alarms and display only the root alarm(s)
Related alarms can also be viewed by specifying the view options in the
Alarm window
Alarm Correlation can be enabled or disabled (enabled by default)
1. In the 1354 RM-PhM, choose Admin > Settings > System Settings > Alarm

Attribute counters in the active bin (bin 0) get incremented or updated each
time an event, such as a SONET/SDH errored second, occurs
Can configure and assign a profile to an interval to monitor the value of each
attribute in the active bin and raise a log event when a certain threshold
level is reached
Each PM group can have up to eight profiles, all having different threshold
levels
Threshold levels you define in the profiles depend on two factors:
• The interval length. For example, if you were gathering statistics for an interface
over 15 minute and 24 hour intervals you would need to define two profiles, one that
defines the threshold values for the 15 minute interval and one that defines
thresholds for the 24 hour interval
• The service level of the traffic using the interface. For example, you could create a
profile with low thresholds for a premium service, and one with high thresholds for a
best-effort service
• Threshold levels tested as follows:
• Every five minutes for optical power groups
• Every 10 seconds for all other PM groups
WAVELENGTH TRACKER
2. Management Interfaces
7. NE Administration
The Wavelength Tracker wave keys are encoded onto the wavelength for an
optical trail at network ingress
The Optical Transponders (OTs) and SVAC cards support wave key encoding
The wave keys for an optical trail are assigned when the optical trail service is
created. Typically, the wave keys are automatically assigned by the NE
software or the 1354 RM-PhM. Manual assignment is optional but not
recommended.
The following actions are performed when the optical trail is created:
The wave keys associated with the trail are assigned and are encoded at the
service endpoints (at a transponder or SVAC). A different wave key pair is
assigned for each direction
The wave keys assigned to the trail are propagated to each Wavelength
Tracker detect point along the service path (as determined from the
programmed fiber topology). Each detect point is then programmed to expect
to receive a certain set of wave keys
ITU Channel : 28
Expected WaveKey 1: 428
Expected WaveKey 2: 972
WaveKeys Received : Yes
Channel AINS : Disabled
Expected Power : -19.90 dBm
Power Deviation : 2.50 dB
Power Tolerance : 0.00 dB
Measured Power : -19.82 dBm
The user will disconnect a network fiber and then Wavelength Tracker will be
used to determine the location of the fiber cut.
Procedure:
1. Remove the input fiber at an equipped transponder circuit pack.
Expected result: Alarms will be listed on the network.
2. Select a transponder alarm from the alarm list and then right click to expose a
menu.
3. Select “Light Path Power”.
Expected result: A wavelength tracker power trace will now be shown.
Observe the power trace for the path and look for powers out of range. This
will show power leaving the selected transponder and not entering the
downstream transponder (fiber disconnected).
4. Clean and re-insert the fiber removed in step 1.
Expected result: Alarms will clear on the network.
The user will disconnect a network fiber and insert an attenuator and then
Wavelength Tracker will be used to determine the location of the additional
attenuation.
Procedure:
1. Remove the input fiber at an equipped transponder circuit pack.
Expected result: Alarms will be listed on the network.
2. Select an alarm from the alarm list and then right click to expose a menu.
Select “Light Path Power”.
Expected result: A wavelength tracker power trace will now be shown.
Observe the power trace for the path and look for powers out of range. This
will show power leaving the transponder at the correct power but entering
the downstream transponder at a lower power level.
3. Remove the attenuator and re-insert the fiber modified in step 1.
Expected result: Alarms will clear on the network.
The user will disconnect a fiber to a channel filter. The LOS alarm will suppress
the Wavelength Tracker alarms across the network.
Procedure:
1. Remove the input fiber to the SFD.
Expected result: An alarm will be raised stating a LOS.
2. Select the SFD channel port LOS alarm from the alarm list and then right click
to expose a menu. Select “Light Path Power”.
Expected result: A wavelength tracker power trace will now be shown.
Observe the power trace for the path and observe that Wavelength Tracker
is not reporting the wavelength at the downstream detect points.
3. Observe the number of alarms on the 1354 RM-PhM and verify that the
Wavelength Tracker detect points for this channel are not raising alarms.
4. Clean and re-insert the fiber removed in step 1.
Expected result: Alarms will clear on the network.
NE ADMINISTRATION
2. Management Interfaces
7. NE Administration
User accounts
Service
Meant for technicians. This user has all the “Admin” privilege (except the
ability to create/delete/manage user profiles), plus the ability to utilize
the debugging and software development tools.
The following applies to the Service user:
One Service user per NE, created by default, as part of the SW load; only the
Service user can change his/her password
A maximum of 1 Service user on the NE; no mechanism to create another Service
user profile or to delete the Service user profile
Observer
The observer privilege level provides view-only access to all of the
functions, except for secure functions such as those that show the network
element infrastructure, security, usernames, and community strings.
Use a user account with observer privileges for monitoring the network, or
for training purposes.
The system does not provide an “unsecure” user external port. To gain access
to an NE you need a user account with login and password
The user account name, privilege level and password is created and defined by
the Admin user, and is unique for each network element in the network
Network element user names and passwords may be reset by the 1354
RM-PhM.
1. The admin user of the 1354 RM-PhM selects the network element(s) that will
have their user listing modified. The user then selects from the menu bar,
“Admin” and then “NE User Management”.
2. The NE user account window will appear.
3. The administrator selects the user which will have their parameters
modified.
4. They then select the magnifying glass icon to display the account
properties.
5. In this window, the administrator changes the account password / security
level and access permission.
6. The user selected will now be able to log into the network element using
the new account properties.
The following procedures are available via the WebUI after the user
initially connects to the NE and logs into the system:
• View or modify user details
• Create a user
Security mode
The NE applies the following security settings:
Telnet is enabled to all CLI ports
TFTP and FTP are enabled
HTTP is enabled for remote management
SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3 requests are allowed by the NE
Local NE authentication
Local NE Authentication is accomplished via the UID and PID pair created
and stored on the local NE
SNMP authentication
The local NE can authenticate and authorize users based on SNMP
Database types
The following database types are kept on or provided for the NE:
ACTVDB: The active database. It resides on the active Main EC flash memory
card
Temporary DB: A temporary holding place for a database on the Main EC
that is used during the backup and restore operations. The Temporary DB is
neither visible to nor accessible by the user
DFLTDB: Factory default configuration provided for the NE during system
installation time. The factory default configuration is not necessarily a
database in the strict sense but may be a fixed set of configuration values
RFSDB: Remote File Server Database. The RFS is the repository for all
database backup operations
The following procedures are available via the WebUI after the user
initially connects to the NE and logs into the system:
• Backup database
• Restore database
The 1354 RM-PhM can schedule periodic network element database backups

Wavelength Terminology
WAVELENGTH
Wavelength - The length of a wave measured from any
point on one wave to the corresponding point on the next l
wave, such as crest to crest. It is the distance an
electromagnetic wave travels in the time it takes to
oscillate through a complete cycle. We measure optical
wavelengths in nanometers (nm).
Lambda - The Greek symbol lambda (λ) which is used to
represent wavelength.
By definition, 1 mW = 0 dBm.
Power levels higher than 1 mW are +dBm, and power levels less
than 1 mW are -dBm.
For example 1 mW = 0 dBm; 0.5 mW = -3 dBm; 4 mW = 6 dBm.

In the event of a communication failure between the network element and the
1354 RM-PhM, the 1354 RM-PhM will attempt to periodically re-establish
communication with the network element. While the network element is out of
communication with the 1354 RM-PhM, the network element will appear as a
blue shaded network element.
If the network element is not visible to the 1354 RM-PhM, select the network
element and view its “Properties” and ensure that the connection IP address(s)
data is visible from the 1354 RM-PhM server. If it is not, determine if there is a
control network issue or an issue with the network element itself. Attempt to
log into the network element via another interface and then determine if the
1354 RM-PhM can be seen from the network element.
The 1354 RM-PhM provides the following types of network and equipment views:
Topology View – The topology view contains locations, managed elements and
links. The links provide a physical view of the network connectivity. It is the
responsibility of the user to create the physical links manually. The topology
view provides a geographic reference for the association of locations and
network elements. Managed elements include the following:
• network elements and their components (that is, shelves, cards and ports)
• locations
Inventory View – The Inventory View provides the following capabilities:
• view shelf and card lists and graphics
• view and edit card and port attributes
• pre-provision a card in a slot (right-click on an empty slot)
Physical Topology – The Physical Topology view displays the fiber connections
within the network element, and to other network elements.
