QoS Configuration
Quality of service (QoS) refers to the performance of the data flow transmission in a network.
The QoS is used to ensure end-to-end service quality. The QoS cannot enhance the bandwidth,
but it can minimize the delay and jitter in a network by properly allocating and monitoring
network resources. In this way, the quality of services is ensured.
The DiffServ (DS) domain consists of a group of network nodes with the DiffServ function.
Nodes of this type are also called DS nodes. In a DS domain, all DS nodes adopt the same service
provisioning policy for the same per-hop behavior (PHB). DS nodes are classified into edge DS
nodes and internal DS nodes. Edge DS nodes usually perform complex flow classification on
the traffic that enters the DS domain. Traffic of different types is marked with different PHB
service types. For internal DS nodes, only the simple flow classification based on the PHB
service type is required.

ATM OAM is a group of end-to-end OAM functions for ATM services. These functions can
check the quality of an ATM link with multiple NEs. The ATM OAM functions check an ATM
link by inserting some OAM cells with the standard cell structure to the cell flow.
The HNMS N168 Web LCT provides the following functions for configuring ATM OAM:
l
Set segment end attributes.
Perform CC activation tests.
Perform remote loopbacks.

A.1 Background
This section describes the service ports used by management systems.
To ensure the network security, you can take measures on the customer's network. The following
are the two cases that affect the network security:
l
Security filtering settings such as routers or firewalls are configured in the network
environment where the NMS runs. When carrying out the project, avoid the service ports
used by the NMS being filtered by those security filtering settings.
Some service ports providing system services are closed to prevent network or virus attacks.
Note that the service ports used by the NMS should not be closed, and otherwise the NMS
will not run properly.
A.2 Notes and Precautions

In the practical communication process, the source (the server) and the sink (the client) use
relevant ports. Usually you only need to specify the source port, and the sink port is dynamically
created.
Note the following during the project implementation:
l
The service ports used by the NMS should not be closed.
If there are routers or firewalls between the source and the sink, then check all ports used
by the source and the sink to make sure that they can be opened, and the source can
communicate with the sink.

Alarm hold-off time
Alarm delay includes start delay and end

delay. An alarm is not regarded as being
generated until the NE has been detecting it
for a period of time, and this period of time is
the alarm start hold-off time. An alarm is not
regarded as being cleared until the NE has
been detecting the ending of it for a period of
time, and this period of time is the alarm end
hold-off time. Setting the hold-off time can
avoid the generation of unnecessary alarms
due to misreport or jitter.
Alarm severity
According to ITU-T recommendations, the

alarm is classified into four severities:
Critical, Major, Minor, Warning.
Alarm
A visible or an audible indication to notify the

person concerned that a failure or an
emergency has occurred. See also Event.
Attribute
Property of an object.

Route
The IP route selection is in table driving

mode. In each host and each router of the
Internet, there is a routing table that contains
information about how the service is
transmitted from the source to the sink,
providing a basis for route selection. Ethernet
static routing in ET1 refers to the mapping
relationship between the Ethernet port and the
bound path. Its routing type includes port
routing and VLAN routing. Port routing: It
means configuring a route between the
Ethernet port and the bound path port, which
is usually used for point-to-point networking
communication; VLAN routing: It means
configuring a route between the Ethernet port
and the bound path port based on the VLAN
service. It can be used flexibly in point-topoint, point-to-multipoint or multipoint-tomultipoint communication. The
implementation is to divide and converge the
data stream according to the VLAN flag of
the packet. As a VLAN flag can be added to
the Ethernet port, the equipment can be
applied more flexibly.

Wavelength protection group
The wavelength protection group is important

to describe the wavelength protection
structure. Its function is similar to that of the
protection sub-network in the SDH NE. The
wavelength path protection can only work
with the correct configuration of the
wavelength protection group.
WDM cross-connection
Internal GE cross-connections for OTU

boards with GE ADM function, the source
and sink of which are optical ports at the
WDM side and the client side. The level for
WDM cross-connection is channel.
WDM service
The WDM service is accessed at the client

side of the OTU board that can access SAN
services.
Web LCT
It is an element level management system for

the optical transmission network. It can
manage RTN and NG WDM serial optical
transmission equipment. See also LCT.
Working path
A specific path that is part of a protection

group and is labelled working.
Working service
A specific service that is part of a protection

group and is labelled working.
WTR time
A period of time that must elapse before a

from a fault recovered trail/connection can
be used again to transport the normal traffic
signal and/or to select the normal traffic
signal from.
WTR
Wait to Restore. This command is issued

when working channels meet the restoral
threshold after an SD or SF condition. It is
used to maintain the state during the WTR
period unless it is pre-empted by a higher
priority bridge request.
