3.1 Configuring the Work Mode

This procedure describes how to configure the operation mode, bandwidth, and modulation
mode of the equipment in accordance with the network planning.
A broader bandwidth indicates a higher modulation mode and a larger radio transmission
capacity but a lower system transceiving performance. The bandwidths for TDM services
and Ethernet services are allocated automatically in accordance with the traffic. This
feature increases the bandwidth utility.
Caution!
The configuration of work mode results in instantaneous service disconnection.
Steps

3.3 Configuring the ATPC Function

The Automatic Transmit Power Control (ATPC) function enables the system to adjust the
transmission power at the local end in accordance with the receive power at the remote
end. If the receive level at the remote end is not within the ATPC adjustment range, the
transmission power needs to be adjusted to enable the receive power at the remote end
to be within the adjustment range. If the transmission power of ODU is adjusted to the
threshold value but the receive power at the remote end is not within the ATPC adjustment
range, the transmission power does not need to be adjusted.
Context
l During the process of exchanging microwave link's antennas, ATPC Switch should be

If the ODU transmission power is adjusted to
the power threshold but the receive level at the
remote end is not within the ATPC adjustment
range, the transmission power will not be
adjusted.
Low –70 to –30 –65 Sets the lowest received level at the remote end.
Threshold
Min Tx Power –20 to 40 0 Sets the lowest transmission power at the local
(dBm) end. It ensures that the receiving condition
at the remote end is not affected by signal
degradation due to low transmission power at
the local end during ATPC adjustment.
The priority of this parameter is higher than
ATPC low threshold.
Max Tx –20 to 40 0 Sets the highest transmission power at the local

Power (dBm) end. It ensures that other links can operate
properly and are not affected by high ODU
transmission power at the local end during
ATPC adjustment.
The priority of this parameter is higher than
ATPC high threshold.

Chapter 4 TDM Service Data Configuration
4.2 Configuring an SNCP Protection Route

This procedure describes how to configure SNCP protection route parameters, such as
cross level, cross direction, and protection mode.
SNCP protection, also called subnetwork connection protection, means that a dedicated
protection route is pre-arranged for a network. When the working channel fails or the
performance is deteriorated, the protection channel substitutes the working channel to
ensure reliable microwave link transmission.
The SNCP configuration specifies the principle of using the protection channel for TDM
services, for example, whether to use the protective route when the working route is faulty
and whether to switch back to the working route after it restores to normal operation.
Steps
1. In the left pane, select TDM > SNCP. The TDM SNCP route configuration page is

The priority level is from 1 to 6. The smaller value of Priority is, the higher the
corresponding priority level is.
4. In the Protection Mode drop-down list, select Non-Revertive or Revertive.

l Non-Revertive: After the service is switched from the working channel to the
protection channel due to poor channel quality, if the working channel restores
normal, the service will not be switched back to the working channel. In this case,
Wait-to-Restore Time(s) is in grey and not editable.
l Revertive: After the service is switched from the working channel to the protection
channel due to poor channel quality, if the working channel restores normal, the
service will be switched back to the working channel after a specified WTR time.
In this case, Wait-to-Restore Time(s) is editable, and the default value is 600 ms.
5. In the Hold-Off Time (ms) text box, enter the hold-off time.
If the current channel is not restored within the specified hold-off time, the service will
be switched to the other channel. This parameter helps avoid frequent switchover.

command.
12. Click Apply.
4.3 Configuring an SNCP+ Protection Route

The SNCP+ function provides a pre-configured protection channel for the TDM service.
Normally, the service is carried on the working channel, and the bandwidth on the
protection channel is reserved for Ethernet services but not TDM services. If TDM
services are interrupted due to abnormal working channel, they are switched over to the
pre-configured protection channel. This function implements 1:1 ring protection for TDM
services.
SNCP routes are configured on both ends for services. However only working channels
transmit services, and intermediate links are configured with P2P routes.

This procedure describes how to configure the Ethernet MAC address, which includes
dynamic MAC address and static MAC address.
The IDU's MAC address table is normally learned dynamically.
Static MAC address is used to meet special requirements, for example, to forward packets
with the specified destination MAC address to a fixed port. Static MAC address is not
recommended for normal service traffic forwarding.

5.3 Configuring a VLAN

5.3.1 Configuring VLAN Port Information
This procedure describes how to configure port VLAN types, such as Access, Trunk,
Hybrid, Customer, Provider, and UserDefine.
Port Type Description
Access An Access port is used to connect the VLAN switch with a device that cannot
identify VLAN tags, for example, work station. This port type transmits only
frames without VLAN tags and can be associated with only one VLAN.
Trunk A Trunk port is used to connect two devices that can identify VLAN tags and
transmit services of multiple VLANs. This port type transmits only frames with
VLAN tags and can bear multiple VLANs.
Hybrid A Hybrid port can transmit frames with or without tags. However, for a specific
VLAN, the frames transmitted by this port type must be all with tags or all
without tags.
Customer A Customer port is used to identify an inner VLAN tag or untagged packet, and
add a specified outer VLAN tag. The frames whose TPID of the inner VLAN
tag is consistent with the setting will be discarded.
Provider A Provided port is used to identify the outer VLAN tags that are consistent with
the configured TPID and transmit them. At the same time, the inconsistent
frames are discarded.
5-11

Port Type Description
UserDefine A UserDefine port is used for VLAN Tag in VLAN Tag (QinQ). It can be
configured flexibly based on the actual requirement.
QinQ allows adding a VLAN tag to the original 802.1Q tag packet. The original
tag becomes the inner tag and the VLAN is marked as CVLAN. The added tag
becomes the outer tag and the VLAN is marked as SVLAN.
Steps
1. In the left pane, select ETH > VLAN > Port Info Configuration. The VLAN port
information page is displayed, see Figure 5-11.

5.4 Configuring QoS

Configuration Item Description
Ingress Traffic classification Traffic classification is to classify packets into different priorities
or services.
For the configuration procedures, refer to “5.4.1 Configuring Queue
Priorities” and “5.4.3 Configuring the Access Control Policy (ACL)”.
Traffic policing Traffic policing is to limit the traffic entering a network to the
allowed range. If the packet traffic of some connection is too large,
traffic policing will discard the packet or reset its priority to protect
network resources and the operator's investment.
For the configuration procedure, refer to “5.4.2 Configuring Access
Rate Control (CAR)”.
5-17

Configuration Item Description
Egress Congestion The congestion avoidance technology is normally used at the

avoidance and network bottleneck to monitor network traffic load and avoid
management potential congestions. The commonly used congestion avoidance
mechanisms are tail drop, Random Early Detection (RED), and
Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED).
Congestion will occur on the interface where the arrival rate of
packets is faster than the sending rate. The queue scheduling
technology is always used to solve network congestion.
For the configuration procedures, refer to “5.4.4 Configuring
Queue Management” and “5.4.6 Configuring Packet Aging Time”.
Traffic shaping Traffic shaping is to limit the traffic of a packet type from a port so
that packets can be sent at an even speed;
Buffer and token bucket are normally used to implement traffic
shaping. The token bucket controls the rate for sending packets.
The packets exceeding the rate limit are cached in the buffer and
waits to be sent as scheduled.
For the configuration procedure, refer to “5.4.7 Configuring the
Flow Rate Limit Policy”.
5.4.1 Configuring Queue Priorities

5.4.4 Configuring Queue Management

This section describes how to set the queue management policy and the congestion
management (CM) policy.
Three CM policies are supported:
l Tail Drop: It is the default congestion management policy. Due to limited capacity of
the tail drop chip, the packets exceeding the capacity are discarded directly.
l Random Early Detection: This policy supports flexible configurations. You can set
the threshold and probability of dropping packets for each queue color. Among the
three colors (yellow, red, and green), yellow queues have the same threshold and
probability as red queues.
l Weighted Random Early Detection: The queue length percentage and packet drop
rate of the packets marked in yellow or green should be configured respectively for a
port.
Steps
1. In the left pane, select ETH > QoS > Queue Management. The queue management
policy configuration page is displayed, see Figure 5-24.

5.4.5 Configuring DEI& Priority Egress

Sometimes, users hope that the internal queue scheduling and discard priority can be
applied to the next hop (through the PRI field and DEI field of the outer layer SVLAN).
Sometimes, users hope that the VLAN and QoS domains of the outer layer are not
modified. To meet the users' demands flexibly, the system supports a function to control
the DEL and priority of the egress packets. The default internal queue scheduling and
discard priority will not be applied to the next hop.
Prerequisite
The queue priority is configured. Otherwise, the default priority is mapped and takes effect.
Steps
1. In the left pane, select ETH > QoS > DEI& Priority Egress. The DEI & Priority
Egress Modification page is displayed, see Figure 5-30.

5.5 Configuring the LLDP Function

The NE enabling the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) function can exchange
messages with its neighbors through sending and receiving LLDP packets. Also, the
local and neighbor messages are stored in the management information base (MIB). The
NMS can access the MIB through SNMP, obtain NE information. Users can query related
information on the pages of local information and neighbor information.
The LLDP function is enabled by default. The default port is added and enabled.

5.6 Configuring the LACP Function

Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is based on the IEEE802.3ad standard. It is
used to implement dynamic link aggregation. It allows binding multiple physical interfaces
into a logical interface. The physical interfaces form a redundant and backup relationship
and implement load sharing.
The LACP function enables multiple physical links to be bound into a logical link and form
a link aggregation group. It accomplishes the following functions:
l Increasing bandwidth: The width of the bound physical links is the sum of the
bandwidths of all physical links in the link aggregation group.
5-40

l Improving system stability and availability: The aggregation link is available even if
one physical link is disconnected.
l Sharing load: The aggregation link sends data in accordance with a policy to achieve
load balancing.

5.9 Configuring ERPS

This procedure describes how to configure the Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS
2008 version) protocol to ensure normal communication between devices. This protocol
can block redundant links in a single ring network and prevent broadcast storms. The
single ring means that all devices in the active link belong to the same ring. ERPS enables
rapid response to link faults and provides short service interruption time. If the active link
fails, the corresponding ports are blocked and the packets on all VLANs are switched to
the standby link. After the active link is restored, the services are switched back to the
active link.

5.11 Configuring ELPS

The Ethernet Line Protection Switching (ELPS) provides end-to-end protection for
VLAN-based point-to-point Ethernet services. The function is based on ITU G.8031.
The ELPS ensures carrier-grade (50 ms) Ethernet switching, and supports port-based
and VLAN-based protection, that is QinQ tunnel protection. The supported number of
protection groups is 12.
Prerequisite
l The ports where the working channel and protection channel are located are
configured with Ethernet OAM.
l For the MA configuration, the CCM interval is set to 3.3 ms or 10 ms. The sending
intervals of the working channel and protection channel are consistent, and the VLAN
is a single-layer VLAN.
l For the MP configuration, the MP type is Down MP, and ELPS is enabled.
Context
ITU G.8031 is a line protection switching specification defined by ITU-T for VLAN-based
Ethernet. To provide protection, all working resources are configured with protection
resources, such as channels and bandwidth. Compared with the spanning tree protection
defined by IEEE, this protection mechanism, defined by ITU G.8031, supports network
resource switching rapidly and easily in a predictable way, and is easier for the operator to
effectively plan the network, query the network state, and achieve carrier-grade operation.
This specification describes 1+1 unidirectional switching, 1+1 bidirectional switching, 1:1
bidirectional switching, and the APS protocol on which bidirectional switching is dependent.
Only 1:1 bidirectional switching is supported.

5.12 Configuring the XSTP Function

In a layer-2 switching network, loops will cause packets to increment and reproduce. As
a result, broadcast storms occur, which occupy the effective broadband and make the
network unavailable.
The spanning tree protocol blocks redundant links by using certain algorithms. It trims a
ring network into a tree network without loops to prevent broadcast storms. Three protocols
have been developed successively: STP, RSTP, and MSTP.
The RSTP introduces the handshaking mechanism on the basis of STP. When the topology
is changed, RSTP can enter the forwarding status without delay through a handshaking
action and achieve faster convergence.
The MSTP introduces multiple instances on the basis of fast convergence. It calculates
spanning trees individually through dividing VLANs to different instances. This enables
different VLANs to forward service data along their own link and achieves load balancing
between links.
XSTP stands for one type of STP. It can be STP, RSTP, or MSTP. This section uses MSTP
configuration as an example.
Prerequisite

In Operator Mode,
the destination MAC
address for the packet is
01-80-c2-00-00-08.
Hello Time (s) 1–10 2 Specifies the interval of

creating a network bridge
and sending BPDU.
5-72

Max Age (s) 6–40 20 Specifies the maximum

age of a BPDU. Once a
packet passes through
one-hop device, the
Message Age value of the
packet will increase. If
the Message Age value
exceeds the time set by
this parameter, the port will
not handle this packet.
Max Hops 6–40 20 Specifies the maximum of

hops of the MST domain.
Once a packet passes
through one-hop device,
the CIST Remaining hops
value of the packet will
increase. If the CIST
Remaining hops value
exceeds the time set by
this parameter, the port will
not handle this packet. The
maximum of hops of the
MST domain restricts the
scale of the MST domain.
Forward Delay (s) 4–30 15 Forward Delay is used for

the bridge state transition.
The network will perform
the spanning tree
calculation if a link is
faulty. The structure
of the spanning tree is
also changed. However,
the newly configured
information cannot be
transmitted to the whole
network. If the new
root port and specified
port forward the data
immediately, the path
loopback will occur.
Therefore, a state
transition mechanism
is used. A middle state is
5-73

required before the new

root port and specified
port forward the data.
After Forward Delay in
the middle state, the data
enters the forwarding
state (15 seconds).
The Forward Delay
ensures that the newly
configured information can
be transmitted to the whole
network.
MST Name – – Specifies the MST domain

naem. Two switches

MST Revision 0–65535 0 Specifies the revision

levels of the MST domain.
CISCO HMD5Key – – Indicates CISCO's HMD5

KEY (CisHMD5Key).
When the system connects
to a CISCO device, if
the MST Digest values
are not consistent, the

domains. When the
system connects to a
CISCO device, it uses the
PacketType configured on

Note:
l If the role of the root port configured with Loop Guard is changed, the root
port changes to Discarding state and remains in the Discarding state without
forwarding packets. In this way, loops cannot be formed in the network.
l For the port configured as Root Guard, the port role can only be the specified
port. Once the port receives a configuration message with higher priority, the
status changes to listening and the ports do not forward packets, which also
means the port link is disconnected. If no configuration messages with higher
priority are received in a long period, the port restores to the original state.

5.14 Configuring OSPF

For the ZXMW NR8120A/8120D, OSPF only serves the NMS channel. The VLAN property
configured as an OSPF interface must include the NMS VLAN.
Context
The OSPF configuration principle is as follows:
l If the Ethernet air interface is used to implement OSPF, only the area ID of the
interface needs to be configured. Other parameters use the defaults. Because OSPF
configurations can be propagated through the air interface, the OSPF configuration
5-84

on one device can take effect on other devices. In this case, in initial state, you only
need to configure OSPF on one device.
l If a panel interface is used to implement OSPF, the IP address and mask of the
interface must be configured. The interface must be configured in the same network
segment as that of the device that the interface is directly connected to.
Steps
1. Configure the OSPF instance.
a. In the left pane, select Routing > OSPF > Instance Configuration. The OSPF
default instance configuration page is displayed, see Figure 5-69.
Figure 5-69 OSPF Instance Configuration Page
b. Configure the default OSPF instance. For a description of the parameters, refer

on the same router and they are mutually
independent.
This parameter is a local concept, and it
does not affect packet switching among other
routers. Therefore, packets switching can
be performed among different routers even if
the OSPF Instance IDs are different. Route
