Packet transport networks should be constructed based on the requirements of mobile backhaul services. Recently, packet transport networks are mainly
used to bear FE services for 3G mobile backhaul networks, VIP leased line services, and a few TDM services for 2G/3G mobile backhaul networks.
For sites where packet transport devices and existing MSTP devices coexist, packet transport devices do not need to bear TDM services such as E1s from
BTSs and NodeBs. For new sites or sites on which MSTP devices are replaced by packet transport devices, packet transport devices should receive and
transmit all types of services.

IPRAN Network Construction Design Roadmap
The hierarchical architecture design between cell site gateways (CSGs), aggregation site gateways
(ASGs) and radio service gateways (RSGs) is applicable to large-scale bearer networks. ATN and CX
routers form an IPRAN packet transport network, featuring simple and flexible networking. ATNs function as
CSGs to form an access network, CX600s ASGs to form an aggregation network, and CX600s function as
RSGs at the core layer. These devices can be flexibly deployed according to service bearing requirements.

IPRAN Network Architecture
With the hierarchical architecture
ensured:
Core layer: mesh networking Aggregation layer: ring or square
networking
Access layer: ring or chain networking
Network characteristics:
All devices on the network are managed by the NMS in a
unified manner.
A large-scale route network is constructed and route reflectors
(RRs) are required.
Dual clock sources are introduced at the core layer for
network-wide synchronization.
CX600s connect two layers. RAN-CEs can be newly added
or reused.
New or reused RAN-CE equipment
co-site with RNCs and function as
the gateways of wireless equipment.
Nodes at all layers co-build the
bearer paths from BTSs/NodeBs to
the BSC/RNC, which are mainly
used to carry wireless voice
services and data services. At the
same time, to bear various service
types, the services of some group
users are migrated to the IPRAN
network, to improve the efficiency.

The mesh topology is configured for core
nodes. Multiple routes are set up
between nodes to improve network
reliability. The core aggregation layer
network adopts the rate of 10GE for
networking based on the service
requirements and technology maturity.
Aggregation nodes should form a ring network or be
directly corrected to core nodes. With (X2) traffic
increase between access nodes, the aggregation
layer gradually form a mesh network. The
aggregation layer should adopt 10 GE links based on
service requirements and technology maturity.
A ring topology is preferred for the access layer. Chains can be
used if optical cables are insufficient. A maximum of three chains
are allowed to be connected to a node on the aggregation edge.
GE or 10 GE links can be used based on service requirements.
GE or 10 GE links are recommended for sites in areas that require
high bandwidth (for example, most sites on a ring are HSPA+ sites
or carry VIP leased line. Nodes on the edge access rings are dual-
homed to aggregation nodes preferably.

to save optical fibers. The devices
belong to the same domain as the
IPRAN network and are planned to
function as RSGs. Core devices do not
receive/transmit services. This scenario
provides good protection switching
performance and facilitates end-to-end
maintenance.
Scenario 2: Devices that connected to
RNCs/BSCs are reused and function as CEs
of the IPRAN network. Core devices and the
reused CEs are connected in back-to-back
mode. The reused CEs receive/transmit only
Ethernet services. Compared with scenario 1,
this scenario provides poorer protection
switching performance.
It is recommended that

Dual core equipment rooms, each of which houses two core devices:
District-level core devices and core devices in the core equipment
room form a square-shaped topology. Aggregation devices can be
connected to core devices. It is recommended that core devices and
the RNC share the same site. Scenario 1 is preferred.
Based on the wireless service model, an RNC and
base stations managed by the RNC belong to the
same area, to improve handover performance.
Therefore, the aggregation/core layer plan should be
consistent with the wireless area plan, avoiding cross-
area aggregation rings. If a few base stations and their
RNC do not belong to the same area, traffic from
these base stations can be transmitted over the 10 GE
links between core devices.

Reuse of RAN-CE Devices
If devices on the new packet transport network are provided by the same vendor as that of the existing RAN CEs, the RAN CEs can be reused to function as the core-layer devices for the packet transport network.
The packet transport network is capable of carrying L3VPN services. The function of dynamically adjusting eNodeB homing should be implemented on the packet transport network. In principle, Iub interfaces carried by
the packet transport network are not interconnected with the RNC through RAN CEs. Base station homing
adjustment is separately performed on MSTP and packet transport networks. The scenario where the MSTP and
packet transport networks communicate with each other about base station homing adjustment is not considered
currently. Iub interfaces, however, can be interconnected with the RNC through RAN CEs if existing RNC
interfaces are insufficient and cannot be expanded.
If being provided by a vendor different from that provides the devices on the new packet transport network, the existing RAN CEs cannot be reused. The existing RAN CEs can be reserved to provide Layer 3 functions for
an MSTP backhaul network and will not be expanded in principle.

Planning principles for device management IP
addresses
IP addresses of local packet transport network
devices (loopback addresses) are private IPv4
addresses. To ensure the interoperability and
manageability of the network, IP addresses are
allocated in three levels: group, national subnet,
and local subnet.
Ensure that each IP address is unique on a
network, allocate consecutive IP addresses if
possible in consideration of network scalability,
and reserve some IP addresses.
When allocating device IP addresses on local
networks, it is recommended that you adhere to
the following rules:
1. Allocate IP addresses by network layer. For
example, allocate different IP address
segments to the core layer, aggregation layer,
and edge layer in ascending order.
2. Use a 32-bit mask for device IP addresses.
3. Allocate consecutive IP addresses to
neighboring devices if possible.
4. Reserve some IP addresses.
It is recommended that you use the public DCN
solution and use IP addresses of interface
loopback0 as the management IP addresses and
device IP addresses.

Planning principles for device interconnection
IP addresses
Interface IP addresses (interconnection IP
addresses) are used for communication between
NEs on a network. Therefore, the IP address of a
local interface and that of the peer interface must
be in the same network segment.
Interface IP addresses of packet transport NEs
must be unique in an AS. Therefore, private IPv4
addresses are used as interface IP addresses and
are allocated by each local network. It is
recommended that an AS use one or more class-B
address segments (such as 172.16.0.0/16).
When allocating device IP addresses on local
networks, it is recommended that you adhere to the
following rules:
1. Allocate IP addresses by ring. Specifically,
allocate addresses as follows: Rings before
chains, closest node on a chain and then
farther nodes in ascending order. Odd
numbered addresses to upper or left interfaces
of links and even numbered addresses to lower
or right interfaces of links on a ring
2. Use a 30-bit mask for device IP addresses.
3. Reserve some IP addresses.

VLAN Type VLAN Planning Principle
VLANs for base
stations
1. Packets from base stations carry VLAN tags.
2. Packets from base stations does not carry VLAN tags.
Negotiate with the wireless network department about how to allocate service VLAN
IDs and service gateway IP addresses.
VLANs for interfaces 1. Main interfaces are used for interconnection between aggregation devices.
2. Main interfaces are used for interconnection between access devices.
3. When an ASG is interconnected with access rings, allocate subinterfaces for
interconnection based on IGP process IDs of the access rings. Plan subinterface IDs,
VLAN numbers, and IGP process IDs consistently.
4. Plan the subinterface IDs for interconnection between ASGs in an access ring process
to be consistent with those for interconnection between the ASG and the access ring.
5. Use ETH-Trunk subinterfaces for interconnection between RSGs in the aggregation
ring process and plan VLANs for these subinterfaces.
VRRP VLAN Plan a VLAN ID range for interfaces between RSGs.
Other service VLANs Plan other service VLANs based on service requirements.

Make simple and easy-to-deploy IGP plans. The cost values of links need to show the link bandwidth
relationship.
Import route into processes of access rings through the IGP on ASGs because LSR IDs of the
ASGs that connect tangent rings are added to
processes of aggregation rings.
Import the management addresses and interface addresses of the access ring into the aggregation ring
for the U2000 and the plug-in-play function.
Import the IP address segment of the U2000 into the access ring so that they can communicate with
each other.
To avoid route loops, set metric to a value larger than that may exist on actual networking when
introducing a route, for example, 200000.
Ensure that traffic on an aggregation ring is transmitted to an access ring. To achieve this,
configure a lower cost value on the aggregation side.
Ensure that the cost plan can be used as a basis for the creation of TE tunnels.
Ensure that E2E traffic from the access ring to the aggregation ring is not transmitted over the
intermediate links between aggregation ring nodes.

Set the cost of links between RSGs to a value greater than the total cost of the longest link at the aggregation layer to ensure that the active LSP from an ASG to the master RSG does not pass along the link between the ASG and the slave RSG.
Set the cost of links between ASGs to a value greater than the total cost of the longest link at the access layer to ensure that the active LSP from a CSG to an ASG does not pass along the link between the other ASGs.
Retain the default cost 10 for IS-IS links except those between RSGs and between ASGs. By default, TE tunnels are not allowed to cross IGP areas. Planning cost values can simplify configuration of TE explicit paths in an IGP area. The cost plan must ensure that primary and secondary TE LSPs share a minimum of nodes.
IGP cost planning: Paths
can be selected in "TE
explicit path + simplified
cost value" mode.

TE Tunnel Design Principles
TE-HSB is the preferred path protection scheme. To ensure that the TE plan facilitates reliability and node
addition/deletion, adhere to the following principles when planning TE paths:
It is recommended that you select automatic calculation of HSB paths. Therefore, plan primary and secondary LSPs
to share a minimum of nodes.
A loose explicit path and a strict explicit path may be used during TE path planning. When specifying an explicit path,
you can specify nodes that an LSP must go through or nodes that an LSP cannot go through on an explicit path. In
the IPRAN solution, loose explicit paths are often used to facilitate node addition or deletion.
Specifically, include the IP address of the ingress or egress interface of the source or end if possible and exclude
undesired paths on the intermediate network to ensure that a path is unique. That is, specify the egress interface on
the source node and the ingress interface on the sink node and exclude undesired intermediate nodes. In this
manner, the active LSP is specified (loose interface), re-optimization, overlap, and best-effort path can be
implemented.
It is recommended that you configure BFD for TE-LSP for the TE path from a CSG to the master ASG, HSB for TE
paths from a CSG to the master and slave ASGs, and HSB and BFD for the entire aggregation layer.

As shown in the figure, if the access network topology is relatively simple, planning TE explicit paths is simple or is even unnecessary.
Subsequent node addition or deletion for network expansion does not require adjustment of explicit paths.
On the aggregation ring, specify the egress interface on a CX to control the traffic direction. At the core layer, specify paths hop by
hop to control the traffic direction.

Based on the IGP cost plan:
The LSP plan for access rings is as follows:
The active LSP from A1 to C1 can be created along the clockwise direction with no need for specifying an explicit path. The active LSP from C1 to A1 can be created along the clockwise direction with no need for specifying an explicit path. HSB paths can be created along the counter-clockwise direction using the automatic calculation function.
Paths from A1 to C2 are created similarly.
The LSP plan for the aggregation/core layer:
It is recommended that you specify paths for devices at the core layer and above hop by hop for the active LSP on the
aggregation side.
Tunnel from C1 to N1: include 3,N5,N3,1 Tunnel from N1 to C1: include 1,N3,N5,3 Tunnel from C2 to N1: include 5,N5,N3,1 Tunnel from N1 to C2: include 1,N3,N5,5 Tunnel from C1 to N2: include 4,N6,N4,2 Tunnel from N2 to C1: include 2,N4,N6,4 Tunnel from C2 to N2: include 6,N6,N4,2 Tunnel from N2 to C2: include 2,N4,N6,6 HSB-protected paths can be automatically calculated (when the overlap function is enabled, the active and standby paths

General Planning Principles
Use a hierarchical BGP model complying with the HVPN architecture. Configure the priority of routes that the master RSG/ASG advertises to be higher than that of routes that the slave RSG/ASG advertises so that traffic is always transmitted to the master RSG/ASG in a normal situation.
Configure the priority of routes that the master ASG advertises to an access ring to be higher than that of routes that the slave ASG advertises to an access ring so that traffic is always transmitted to the master ASG in a normal situation.
Consider the effectiveness of VPN FRR and the complexity of route priority configuration when planning routes. Plan priorities of routes that an ASG advertises to the master RSG in ascending order along the counter-clockwise direction, and
priorities of routers that an ASG advertises to the slave RSG in ascending order along the clockwise direction.
It is recommended that you plan a same RD for a VPN service on the entire work.

Configuring priorities of routes that ASGs advertise to a CSG
Configure proper priorities for routes that ASGs advertise to the CSG so that the active and standby routers can be distinguished
on a ring network. For example, set local-preference of the route that the master ASG advertises to the CSG to 150 and that of the
route that the slave ASG advertises to the CSG to 100. In this manner, the route that the master ASG advertises to the CSG is
preferred.
Advantages compared to the model of load-sharing of traffic in
two directions:
1. In the load sharing solution, maintenance personnel may
easily ignore traffic monitoring. As service traffic increases,
network redundancy is insufficient. As a result, when one
path fails, the other path cannot meet bandwidth
requirements.
2. In the load sharing solution, the service model and traffic
planning are complex. A large number of routing polices are
required to ensure even upstream and downstream traffic.

1. Ensure that priorities of routes that an ASG advertises to RSG-1 are higher than those of routes that the ASG advertises to RSG-2. Configure
the priorities of routes that an ASG advertises to RSG-1 to decrease along the counter-clockwise direction in a specific step, and the priorities
of routes that the ASG advertises to RSG-2 to decrease along the clockwise direction in a specific step (to ensure VPN FRR for X2/FMC
services). In this manner, two routes are available from the ASG side to the RSG side, and VPN FRR can be implemented.
2. Ensure that the priorities of routes that RSG-1 advertise to an ASG are higher those of routes that RSG-2 advertise to the ASG so that two

E-APS
E-APS technology introduction
APS is used on SDH interfaces (such as CPOS interfaces) to provide redundancy protection. Similar to
LMSP, the APS mechanism uses K1/K2 bytes in
multiplex section overheads in SDH frames to
exchange switching protocol information. Alarms at the
SDH layer trigger APS switching. E-APS is a cross-
equipment protection switching mechanism.
E-APS is available in two modes: 1:1 and 1+1. In 1:1 mode, the transmit end transmits packets to a
single link, and the receive end receives the packets
from this link. In 1+1 mode, the transmit end sends
identical packets to the active and standby links, and
the receive end selectively receives packets from the
active link.
E-APS is available in two modes: single-ended or dual-ended. In single ended switching mode, if one
optical fiber in a pair of optical fibers is interrupted, the
packets on the optical fiber are switched and packets
on the normal optical fiber remain unchanged.
It is recommended that you use 1+1 E-APS in single-ended and non-revertive mode. Configure the
independent mode for PW redundancy.

CSG Based on the DSCP values added by base stations, configure CSGs to remark priorities of packets from the base stations differently in different
solutions (if the DSCP values added by base stations map EXP values, CSGs do not remark priorities but mark that the priorities are trusted). Normally,
priorities for VPN services are mapped to the EXP values of external LSPs.
A CSG directly identifies and maps priorities if packets from base stations carry priorities (802.1P or DSCP); otherwise, performs traffic classification.
ASG When an ASG is swapping outer tags, EXP values are also mapped.
An ASG maps packet priorities and schedules packets based on priorities.
RSG An egress RSG pops outer LSP tags, remarks EXP values into DSCP fields of IP packets and forwards the packets to the wireless devices. If the PHP
function is configured, the penultimate device pops outer LSP tags, maps EXP values into inner LSP lags, and forwards the packets to wireless devices.
An RSG performs operations similar to those on the CSG.

Frequency synchronization
Synchronous Ethernet: Synchronous Ethernet is a preferred frequency synchronization solution. The standard SSM
is enabled. If WDM devices are involved, ensure that all WDM devices support transparent transmission of
synchronous Ethernet packets.
Time synchronization
1588v2: 1588v2 is the only solution that implements time synchronization. This solution has high requirements on intermediate networks and is not recommended currently.
Base stations on the live network are connected to GPS for time synchronization.

Planning principle: top to bottom, separated layers, break up the same layer, upper left and lower right, links connected to an upper layer ring function as BITS. If a link between two BITSs is interrupted, pseudo-synchronous state is generated (which does not affect
the tracing quality in theory).
Enable the standard SSM (clock levels can be carried). Select clocks by comparing clock levels and then clock priorities. It is recommended that the first node connect to BITSs through 2 Mbit/s external interfaces for frequency synchronization. Ensure that a clock chain has a maximum of 20 hops along either the primary or second direction.

Priorities of synchronization sources:
A smaller value indicates a higher priority.
Source selection does not involve the sources that are not configured with
priorities.
With the same priority, source preference is BITS > INTERFACE >
PTP.
With the same source type, a source with a smaller port/slot ID is preferred.

Key Technical Solutions of IPRAN Networks - NMS Deployment
Requirements on NMS:
The U2000 manages ATNs, CXs, and NE40Es in a unified manner and performs end-to-end topology management, service provisioning, fault diagnosis, and performance monitoring.
According to the live network conditions, configure the NMS to be single-homed or dual-homed to devices in core equipment rooms.
The plug-and-play function enables ATNs on the access ring to go online automatically.
Network deployment:
Deploy the NMS in the public network management mode. That is, NMS information shares IGP with services. Import the management addresses and interface addresses of the access ring into the aggregation ring for the U2000 to manage and the plug-in-play function to use.
Import the IP address segment of the U2000 into the access ring so that they can communicate with each other. To avoid route loops, set metric to a value greater than the maximum possible value in actual networking when introducing a route, for example, 20000.
