Quick configuration of two fiber unidirectional MSP service-part2

Configuration Process

This topic describes how to configure the two-fiber unidirectional MSP service.

Prerequisites

The physical topology of the network must be created.

The NEs, boards, and fibers must be created on the U2000.

Lower order cross-connection resources must meet service configuration requirements. For details on how to query lower order cross-connection resources, see Querying Lower Order Cross-Connection Resources.

The created protection subnet must be consistent with the actual network topology. For details about how to create the protection subnet, see Creating an MS Ring Protection Subnet.

You must be familiar with the contents in Signal Flow and Timeslot Allocation.

Context

CAUTION:

When the lower order resources are insufficient, do as follows:

Combine available lower order resources.

Use a cross-connect board with a higher lower order cross-connect capacity.

Configure VC-4 services.

Procedure

  1. Configure unidirectional services from NE1 to NE3.
  2. At NE1, configure SDH services on the source NE.

Select NE1 from the NE Explorer, and then choose Configuration > SDH Service Configuration from the Function Tree.

Click Create on the lower-right pane to display the Create SDH Service dialog box. Set the parameters that are required, and then click OK.

Parameter Value in This Example Description
Level VC12 In this example, E1 services are configured on the ring. Hence, Level of the E1 services is set toVC12.
Direction Unidirectional In this example, the services are transmitted and received over different paths. That is, the services are unidirectional services. Hence, Direction of the services is set to Unidirectional.
Source Slot 2-PQ1 In this example, the PQ1 board in slot 2 is configured as the source tributary board for the unidirectional services from NE1 to NE2. See Figure 1.

Relevant Task

If the services are configured incorrectly and need to be deleted, see Deleting SDH Services.

After SDH services are configured on a per-NE basis, you need to perform an SDH trail search so that you can manage configured services by using the trail management function. For details, see Searching for SDH Services.
