Ethernet configuration example Scenario:

Followings are some description of the setting related to Ethernet features based on
6Fe/L2 unit:

1) Bridge Mode
There are two Bridge modes on 6FE/L2 Card, IEEE 802 and Double Tag. IEEE
802: Based on 802.1Q VLAN type, under this mode, 6FE/L2 card can recognize the
VLAN ID from Layer two switch or DSLAM, and total operation on this card will based
on 802.1Q VLAN TAG.

Double TAG Mode: Based on private VLAN type, the tagged frame can only be
recognized by FW4x70 Series product, the frame from customer with tag or not will be
added new 4byte PVID to separate different customers.

2) PVID
PVID is of different meaning when the card under different mode. When the Bridge
mode is under IEEE 802, it is equal to 802.1Q VLAN ID. When the Bridge mode is
under Double TAG Mode, it means the new Private VLAN ID which can only be
recognized by FW4x70 Series product. Also the PVID will only be take affect when
the port received frame from other end. Figure below describes Receive and
Transmit philosophy:

Note:
When the bridge mode under IEEE 802, if the port receives frame with no VLAN TAG,
the PVID will be as the 802.1Q VLAN ID adds to original frame. If the port receives
frame with 802.1Q VLAN ID, and the value of PVID is different from it, the 6FE/L2 Card
will not overwrite the value of VLAN ID in original frame.
3) TAG or UnTAG
TAG means when the port transmits frame, keep the VLAN ID in the outer frame.
UnTAG means when the port transmit the frame, delete the VLAN ID in the outer
frame.

Note:
The type of VLAN ID based on the Bridge Mode.

4) VLAN List
The function of the VLAN List is to control the assignment between VLAN ID and ports,
you can configure this List through VLAN Management to control the traffic
orientation.

5) Rate Limit
The function of Rate Limit is to restrict the flow Rate of the port or specific VLAN. This
function has two modes, Port Based and Port + VLAN Based.

Port Based means rate limit function only based on the port designated, if the port
receives multiple VLAN frame, this function will take effect to all flows.

Port + VLAN Based means rate limit function will based on the idiographic port and
specific VLAN ID designated, if the port receives multiple VLAN frame, this function
will only take effect to flow which belong to VLAN designated.

Note:
This feature only can be applied on LAN ports or cards supporting L2 features

6) CoS Control
L2 Card provides CoS Priority modification when receives frames and congestion weight
algorithm control when transmit frames both on LAN ports and WAN ports, lists of
parameters are listed below:

CoS Modification Mode

Port Based means CoS modification only based on the port designated, if the port
receives multiple VLAN frame, this function will take effect to all flows.

Port + VLAN Based means CoS modification will based on the idiographic port and
specific VLAN ID designated, if the port receives multiple VLAN frame, this function
will only take effect to flow which belong to VLAN designated.
Weight Definition
Once congestion occurs, the egress frames will based on the weight
configuration to transmit data by its own CoS level, the default weight
configuration as follows,
2) Scenario 1 of Point to Point connected by DSLAM

Logical Topology Overview:

Network Description
Three types of Services (Voice Based Services, Internet Core and Video Services) have
been assigned with different 802.1Q VLAN ID 20, 30 and 40. Business Customer A,
Residential Customer B and C connected by DSLAM directly, and DSLAM connect to
FW4x70 with one fast Ethernet port, suppose Business Customer A has been assigned an
802.1Q VLAN ID 10 and Residential Customer B and C have been assigned an 802.1Q
VLAN ID 50 and 60 by DSLAM to separate the other customers.

Purpose
The end users of Business Customer A could build connection with each other through
FW4x70 Series network, also the Business Customer A and Residential
Customer B and C could acquire the correlative services from service provider.

Detail Parameter List for this scenario

This chapter will give out the detail parameter for L2 card of every NE related.
3) Scenario 2 Multipoint To Multipoint Connected by DSLAM and directly
connected by FW4x70 Series

Logical Topology Overview:

Network Description
Three types of Services (Voice Based Services, Internet Core and Video Services) have
been assigned with different 802.1Q VLAN ID 20, 30 and 40. Business Customer A not
only connected by DSLAM directly, but also connected by FW4x70 Series. Suppose
Business Customer A which connected by DSLAM has been assigned an 802.1Q VLAN
ID 10, and Residential Customer B and C which connected by DSLAM have been
assigned an 802.1Q VLAN ID 50 and 60 by DSLAM to separate the other customers, and
Business Customer A which connected by FW4x70 Series directly with no VLAN ID.

Purpose
The end users of Business Customer A could build connection with each other through
FW4x70 Series network, also the Business Customer A and Residential
Customer B and C could acquire the correlative services from service provider.

4) Scenario 3 Multipoint To Multipoint Directly Connected By FW4x70 Series

Logical Topology Overview:

Network Description
Three types of Services (Voice Based Services, Internet Core and Video Services) have
been assigned with different 802.1Q VLAN ID 20, 30 and 40. Business Customer A
connected by FW4x70 Series. Suppose Business Customer A which connected by
FW4x70 Series directly with no VLAN ID, and Residential Customer B and C which
connected by DSLAM have been assigned an 802.1Q VLAN ID 50 and 60 by DSLAM.
Now we want to arrange an 802.1Q VLAN ID 10 by FW4x70 Series to Business
Customer A to separate the other customers.

Purpose
The end users of Business Customer A could build connection with each other through
FW4x70 Series network, also the Business Customer A and Residential Customer B and
C could acquire the correlative services from service provider.
