Chapter 1 Accessing GigaVu™ Functions

Accessing GigaVu Functions
The GigaVu local manager resides in and runs over an embedded web server on each
chassis. Using web-based point and click technology, the operator can easily configure all
aspects of the GigaVu network. Additionally, it actively monitors the status of all system
components and regulates user privileges and security. GigaVu is SNMP compliant.
This chapter contains the procedures for accessing GigaVu functions. It addresses login
procedures and navigation from the Home screen.
GigaVu Terminal
A GigaVu operator plugs a workstation into the SCM RJ45 port, activates the GigaVu
application, and logs in. The GigaVu terminal must be connected to the chassis to execute
system functions. 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 direct connection between the workstation and SCM requires a Category 5
Cross-over cable. The procedures for GigaVu terminal connection and communications
configuration are contained in Chapter 2.

edgeGEAR 2000 SCM Initialization

The 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.

Chapter 3 SCM Configuration
The SCM card provides management and connectivity for the edgeGEAR 2000 EPON
system. In addition to being the system controller, the SCM serves as the primary interface
to the service provider packet network. This allows you to place the SCM and its ports in
an operational state. Once the ports are operational, you can connect them to the service
provider packet network.
This section covers configuring the SCM and its ports and then connecting the SCM GigE
to the service provider packet network. This configures the chassis for Unprotected SCM
mode of operation. If Protected mode is required, complete the Protected SCM
configuration process.

newly selected version will load.

Configure Protected Operation Mode

The SCMs can be configured to operate in Protected mode when both slots are populated.
Normally SCM 9 will be active, and SCM 10 will be in standby. The standby database is
updated whenever changes occur. If three consecutive SCM heartbeat checks are missed,
the system switches operation to the standby SCM. The standby reboots itself to the active
mode and activates its SCM ports. To eliminate redundant IP addresses, only the active
card advertises its address.
With two SCMs installed, cabling is set up in a way that allows either SCM to access the
IP Network. In a like manner, the GigaVu workstation is cabled to access either SCM.
When the redundant SCM is initialized, both modules will be configured for Protected
operation. The redundant SCM port assumes the same configuration as the active SCM.
To Configure the redundant SCM, proceed as follows.

• The Chassis Configuration window is displayed
2. Click on the Slot 10 SCM Module.
• The dual SCM Module Configuration window is displayed (Figure 14).

Configure Link Aggregation on the SCM Ports

SCM 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:
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.
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.
• The Port IfIndexes will change to match, 90001 for Port Group 1 or 90002 for
Port Group 2.
Note: Both ports must be configured to a fixed Admin State (Admin Type field).
They cannot be set to Auto Negotiate.

Remove Network Interface SCM Port Aggregation
Figure 17: Link Aggregation Window

Note: Existing Ethernet traffic provisioned to transit the chassis via the SCM Port
Group is now configured to transit via SCM Port 1. 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.
To remove SCM Link Aggregation, proceed with the following.

• The Link Aggregation window is displayed.
3. Set the Link Aggregation Groups back to Port Groups 1 and 2.

Configure Spanning Tree Based Forwarding

The 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.
Note: Link Aggregation cannot be active when configuring STP.
To provision Spanning Tree Protocol, proceed as follows.

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.

Figure 18: Configuring Spanning Tree

Chapter 4 OLT Configuration
OLT Overview
The 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.

OLT Placement for Unprotected Configurations
OLT Module Placement

OLT Modules reside in slots 1 through 8. OLT B/C cards can be configured for either High
Density or Lite modes. 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 Configurations

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

You 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)
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™.

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 Overview
The 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.
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.
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.

NIM 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.

5. Press Submit.
Figure 31: NIM Port Configuration Window

Configuring NIM Link Aggregation

NIM network ports aggregation provides distribution of the ONU Ethernet ingress and
egress traffic uniformly between both of the NIM network interface ports. This allows a
larger pool of common bandwidth available for ONU Ethernet traffic, and enhances
system reliability in the case of NIM network interface port congestion or outage. You
aggregate the network communications ports for the active NIM module.
To aggregate network interface traffic on NIM Ports, proceed with the following.
• The Link Aggregation window will appear.
3. Set the Link Aggregation Groups to the Port Group desired.
4. Set the Max Port Bandwidth per your work order.
5. Press Submit.
• All the Port IfIndexes will change to match the IfIndex of the Port Group selected.
Note: Once a NIM Port becomes part of a NIM Group, all ONU Ethernet traffic
previously provisioned to transit the chassis on that port will now be
transmitted from the chassis via the NIM Port Group.
Note: All aggregated ports must be configured to a fixed Admin State (Admin
Type field). They cannot be set to Auto Negotiate.

Remove NIM Link Aggregation
Figure 32: Configuring Link Aggregation

This procedure describes how to remove NIM Link aggregation.
Note: All ONU Ethernet traffic previously provisioned to transit the chassis via
a NIM Port Group is now configured to transit the chassis via NIM Port 1.
If you also plan to use other NIM Ports to transit upstream traffic, reallocate
user bandwidth, so you don’t overload a port.
To remove NIM Link aggregation, proceed as follows.

• The Link Aggregation window will appear.
3. Set the Link Aggregation Groups back to appropriate Port Groups.
4. Press Submit.

Configuring NIM Spanning Tree

edgeGEAR 2000 is a listening participant in Spanning Tree. As a destination, it doesn’t
return packets. Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) allows a single resilient path to be
provisioned via the NIM ports. This provides logical layer redundancy in case one of the
NIM links goes out of service. Only one of the six NIM Gig ports will ever be in the
Spanning Tree forwarding state. STP ensures no LAN loops exist within an Ethernet inter-
network.
Note: Link Aggregation cannot be active when configuring STP.
To configure Spanning Tree, proceed as follows.

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.

Figure 33: NIM Spanning Tree Window
Delete a NIM from Service

This procedure describes how to delete a NIM from service. All user VLANs must be
deleted or reassigned to an SCM network interface prior to attempting this. Perform this
procedure before physically removing the module from the edgeGEAR 2000 chassis.
2. Click on the NIM to be deleted.
• The NIM Module Configuration window is displayed.
3. Select Disabled for the Admin State of the NIM.
4. Press the Delete button.
• The NIM is deleted from the edgeGEAR 2000 Chassis provisioning view.
• The NIM Slot equipment status is changed to N/E.

Chapter 6 DS3M Provisioning
DS3M Overview
The DS3M manages the telephone network interface for the edgeGEAR 2000 chassis. The
DS3M module allows the operator to configure or view the properties of individual DS3M
modules and associated DS3 ports in the chassis. DS3M Modules are supported in slots 13
and 14 only. The DS3M support up to four DS3 interfaces and provide 3-1-0 DAX
functionality.
The DS3 requires a BNC card be installed in slot 15. This provides the physical
connection to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). Both modules share
access to the BNC connectors. Each DS3M port can be configured for either T1 or
E1operation.
This chapter describes the configuration of the DS3M and its facilities. The user may also
delete a particular configuration or an entire module from the system. Removal procedures
are addressed in this chapter.

The DS3M can be configured to operate in either unprotected or protected mode. When
protected is chosen, the primary DS3M (slot 13) is configured as unprotected, and the
redundant DS3M is configured as protected. When the redundant DS3M is configured,
installed and enabled, both modules are initialized in protected mode. Normally, the
primary DS3M will boot up as active and the redundant DS3M as standby. The active
DS3M ONLINE LED and the redundant DS3M STDBY LED are lit when the modules
complete initialization.
The SCM runs status polls on the DS3M every three seconds. If the DS3M does not
respond (missing 3 polls), is removed (1 poll), or is disabled, the BNC Card switches
operation to the standby DS3M. The standby is re-initialized to the active mode.
To configure the DS3M, proceed with the following steps.

Figure 40: BNC and System Clock Source Ports

System Clock Source Overview
The 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.

Provision a Timing Source

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 clock when external timing sources fail.
Best Practice: The use of a highly stable clock is essential to the system’s
performance. A dedicated BITS clock is recommended. All clocks must be
checked/verified prior to installation.
To provision System Timing Sources, proceed with the following.

1. Click on the System Provisioning tab.
2. Click on the Timing Source tab.
• The System Clock Selection window is displayed.
3. Select the BITS Clock Rate: T1 or E1.
4. Select a Primary and Secondary Clock Source from the pull down menus.
5. Press Submit.
Figure 43: Provisioning System Clock Sources

Chapter 8 DS1 System Clock Provisioning
DS1 Clock Source Overview
When 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.

DS1 Interface Configuration

The DS1 Interface Configuration window is accessible from the DS3 Port Configuration
window. The configuration fields are defined below.

Appendix B - Product Repair and Return
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.
Product Repair and Return

The 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.

RMA Process
When 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 Emergency
In 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.
