5.3 Troubleshooting the Radio LinkWhen an NE reports MW_LOF, MW_BER_EXC, MW_BER_SD or MW_FEC_UNCOR dueto failure or performance deterioration of a radio link, there is a radio link fault.
Context
The key to locating a radio link fault is to check whether the transmit power and the receivepower are normal and whether there is an external interference.
In the following two cases, the transmit power is abnormal. The first case is that the transmitpower exceeds the range that the ODU supports. The second case is that the difference betweenthe actual transmit power and the preset value is more than 2 dB when the ATPC is disabled.The relevant alarms and performance events are as follows:
l RADIO_TSL_HIGHl RADIO_TSL_LOWl TSL_CURl TSL_MAXl TSL_MINl TSL_AVG
NOTE
For the range of the transmit power, see the OptiX RTN 910 Radio Transmission System ProductDescription.
In the following two cases, the receive power is abnormal. In the first case, the receive poweris lower than the normal value (Normal value = Planned value - 3 dB). In the second case, thereceive power is lower than the receiver sensitivity or higher than the free space receive powerdue to fading. The relevant alarms and performance events are as follows:
l RADIO_FADING_MARGIN_INSUFFl RADIO_RSL_BEYONDTHl RADIO_RSL_HIGHl RADIO_RSL_LOWl RSL_CURl RSL_MAXl RSL_MINl RSL_AVG
NOTE
In the case of the radio link whose AM function is enabled, the receiver sensitivity is the specific receiversensitivity at the guaranteed capacity.
For details on the receiver sensitivity, see the OptiX RTN 910 Radio Transmission System ProductDescription.
Generally, external interference is classified into co-channel interference and adjacent channelinterference.

l Co-channel interference refers to crosstalk from two different radio transmitters that usethe same frequency channel. Hence, the entire spectrum may be affected.
l Adjacent channel interference refers to signal impairment to one frequency, due to presenceof another signal on a nearby frequency. Hence, a part of the spectrum is affected.
Interference is closely related to the frequency. Hence, the radio link may be faulty in onedirection if interference exists on the radio link.
Fault Causes
Table 5-4 Causes of radio link faults
Fault Common Fault Cause
The transmit power is abnormal. The ODU is faulty.
The receive power is always lower than thenormal value.
l The antenna direction is not adjustedproperly.
l The antennas have different polarizationdirections.
l There is a mountain or building in thetransmit direction.
l The antenna is faulty or the connectionbetween the antenna and the ODU isabnormal (for example, the waveguideinterface of the ODU is wet or the flexiblewaveguide is not connected properly).
l The ODU is faulty.
The receive power is abnormal due to slowdown fading.
The fading margin is insufficient.
The receive power is abnormal due to fastfading.
The multipath fading is fast.
The receive power is normal or slow upfading occurs, but the signal-noise ratio(SNR) is abnormal.
There is external interference.

NOTE
Based on the RSL, fading is classified into up fading and down fading.
l Up fading
The RSL is higher than the RSL in the free space. The difference can be 10-odd decibels.
l Down fading
The RSL is lower than the RSL after free space fading. The difference can be tens of decibels.
Based on the fading time, fading is classified into fast fading and slow fading.
l Fast fading
The fading lasts from several milliseconds to tens of seconds.
Generally, fast fading is caused by multipath fading. It occurs periodically. To be specific, fast fadingoccurs in the period from 18:00 to 20:00 of a day or in a certain season of a year.
l Slow fading
The fading lasts from tens of seconds to several hours.
Generally, slow up fading is caused by interference. Slow down fading is caused by rain, and thereforeis also called rain fading. Rain fading occurs on links working at a frequency of 10 GHz or in areaswhere heavy rain occurs.
Generally, slow down fading and fast fading are caused by factors related to the transmission link. Hence,the radio link may be faulty in both directions in the case of slow down fading or fast fading.
Fault Locating Methods1. Check whether the ODU is muted, powered off, or looped back. Check whether the data
configuration is correct.2. Check whether the ODU and the IF board are faulty.3. If the transmit power is abnormal, replace the ODU.4. If the receive power is abnormal, analyze and locate the causes according to the fading
type.5. If the receive power is normal but the SNR is abnormal, check whether there is interference
before you proceed.6. If the preceding methods cannot locate faults, perform loopback operations.

5 Troubleshootthe anomaly thatthe receive poweris lower than thenormal value.
The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:1. If the receive power decreases sharply and does not recover, check the
installation of the antenna. Ensure that the azimuth angle of theantenna meets the requirement.Check whether the antenna is aligned properly. Check whether thereceived signal is from the main lobe.If the antenna direction is not aligned properly, adjust the antenna ina wide range.
2. If the difference between the receive power of the main ODU andstandby ODU at one end of the 1+1 HSB radio link is beyond the rangefrom 0 dB to 9 dB (in the case of an unbalanced hybrid coupler) orbeyond the range from 0 dB to 5 dB (in the case of a balanced hybridcoupler), perform 1+1 HSB switching or replace the ODUs and hybridcoupler to narrow down the fault to a specific part.
3. If the difference between the RSL at the receive end and transmit endis larger than 10 dB, replace the ODUs to check whether the main orstandby ODU is faulty.
4. Check whether the setting of the polarization direction of the antennais correct. Rectify the wrong polarization direction.
5. Check whether the cable connector is made in accordance withspecifications. If any cable connectors do not comply with thespecifications, see the Installation Reference and remake cableconnectors.
6. Check whether the IF cable is soggy, broken, or pressed. If yes,replace the IF cable.
7. Check whether there is a mountain or building in the transmitdirection. If the line of sight (LOS) is unavailable, adjust the height orposition of the antenna.
8. Replace the ODUs and hybrid coupler to narrow down the fault to aspecific part.
9. Check whether the gains of the antennas at the receive and transmitends comply with the specifications. Replace the antenna whose gaindoes not comply with the specifications.
6 Troubleshootslow downfading.
Contact the network planning department to make the following changes:l Increase the fade margin on links.l Use low-frequency ODUs.l Use vertical polarization instead of horizontal polarization.

7 Troubleshootfast fading.
Contact the network planning department to make the following changes:l Adjust the position of the antenna to reduce the multipath fading.
1. Adjust the height of the antennas at both ends to increase the heightdifference between the antennas.
2. In the case of strong reflection surfaces such as water surfaces,plains, and smooth mountaintops, adjust the antenna to removereflection points. Alternatively, use the actual terrain to masksurface reflection.
3. Lower the antenna height to reduce the path margin with LOSconditions guaranteed.
l Adjust the RF configuration to change the radio link to the 1+1 SDmode.
l In the case of a 1+1 SD radio link, adjust the height difference betweentwo antennas to ensure that the receive power of one antenna is higherthan the receive power of the other antenna.
l Increase the fading margin, by replacing the original antennas withantennas of a larger diameter or increasing the transmit power of theoriginal antennas.

8 Troubleshootinterference.
The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:1. There is co-channel interference.
1. Mute the ODU at the opposite end.2. Check the RSL at the local end. If the RSL exceeds -90 dBm, it
indicates that there is co-channel interference that may affect thelong-term availability and performance of the system.
2. There is adjacent channel interference.1. Mute the ODU at the opposite end.2. Adjust the microwave working mode at the local end and use the
minimum channel spacing.3. Decrease the receive frequency at the local end by a half of the
channel spacing.4. Test and record the RSL.5. Increase the receive frequency at the local end, with a step of 0.5
MHz or 1 MHz. Record the RSL accordingly until the receivefrequency is equal to the original receive frequency plus a half ofthe channel spacing.
6. Compare the recorded RSL values, and check whether the RSL ina certain spectrum is abnormal if the received frequency is withinthe permitted range.
3. Use Huawei frequency scanning scripts or a spectrum analyzer toanalyze the interference source.
4. Contact the network planning department to modify the networkingplanning and design.1. Plan Tx high sites and Tx low sites correctly to avoid using them
at the same time.2. Plan frequencies or polarization modes correctly to avoid the same
polarization direction for microwave signals and interferencesignals. Plan routes correctly.
5. Contact the spectrum management department to clear theinterference spectrum.
9 Performloopbackoperations tolocate the fault.
The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:1. Perform an inloop at the IF port.
If the fault persists after the inloop is performed, replace the IFboard.
2. Replace the ODU.If the fault is rectified after the ODU is replaced, it indicates that theODU is faulty.

Experience and Summaryl During the commissioning, ensure that the antenna is aligned properly, to prevent possible
incipient faults.
l Periodically collect and analyze the data about the changes in the transmit power and receivepower so that you can detect and then rectify the incipient faults accordingly in time.
5.4 Troubleshooting Bit Errors in TDM ServicesWhen an NE reports an alarm or a performance event on the IF board, regenerator section (RS),multiplex section (MS), higher order path (HP), or lower order path (LP), there are bit errors inservices.
Fault Phenomena
The IF bit errors refer to the bit errors that the IF board detects through the self-defined overheadbyte in the microwave frame. The related alarms and performance events are as follows:
l MW_BER_EXCl MW_BER_SDl MW_CFG_MISMATCHl MW_LOFl IF_BBEl IF_ESl IF_SESl IF_CSESl IF_UAS
The RS bit errors refer to the bit errors that the line processing unit or the IF board that worksin SDH mode through the B1 overhead byte in the RS overhead. The related alarms andperformance events are as follows:
l B1_EXCl B1_SDl RS_CROSSTRl RSBBEl RSESl RSSESl RSCSESl RSUAS
NOTE
The IF board that works in PDH mode may also detect the previous RS bit error alarms and performanceevents. In this case, the IF board detects bit error alarms and performance events in the PDH microwaveframe through the self-defined B1 byte.
The MS bit errors refer to the bit errors that the line board detects through the B2 byte in the MSoverhead. The related alarms and performance events are as follows:

Fault Causes
Table 5-6 Causes of bit errors
Fault Common Fault Cause
There are IF bit errors. l The radio link is faulty.Check whether the MW_BER_EXC,MW_BER_SD, MW_FEC_UNCOR,MW_LOF or RPS_INDI alarm isreported. If yes, the radio link is faulty.
l The services are incorrectly configured.Check whether theMW_CFG_MISMATCH alarm isreported. If yes, the number of E1 servicesis inconsistent on both ends of the radiolink.
l The IF board at the local end or oppositeend is faulty.
There are RS bit errors. l The line is faulty.– The common causes for bit errors on
the optical line are as follows: theoptical fiber line, the optical power isabnormal, the fiber performancedeteriorates, or the fiber connector isnot clean.
– In the case of bit errors on the radiolink, check whether theMW_BER_EXC, MW_BER_SD,MW_FEC_UNCOR or RPS_INDIalarm is reported. If yes, the radio linkis faulty.
l The line processing unit or IF board isfaulty.
l The clock unit is faulty.l The quality of the clock over the network
declines.When the quality of the clock over thenetwork declines, a pointer justificationevent occurs.

Fault Common Fault Cause
There are not any RS bit errors but there areMS bit errors or HP bit errors.
l The line processing unit or IF board isfaulty.
l The quality of the clock over the networkdeclines.When the quality of the clock over thenetwork declines, a pointer justificationevent occurs.
l The working temperature of the lineprocessing unit or IF board is excessivelyhigh.
There are only LP bit errors. l The tributary board is faulty.l The cross-connect unit is faulty.l The working temperature of the board is
excessively high.l The working temperature of the cross-
connect unit is excessively high.l There is a power surge or an external
interference source, or the equipment isnot properly grounded. (This cause doesnot need to be considered during thetroubleshooting of an IF board.)
Fault Locating Methods1. Analyze the equipment alarms and performance events that are related to service
configuration errors and bit errors.2. When there are many types of alarms and performance events on a service path, first analyze
RS bit errors, then MS bit errors, HP bit errors, and finally LP bit errors.3. When multiple paths have bit errors, first check whether the overlapping part of the service
paths is faulty.4. If you fail to locate the fault by analyzing the alarms and performance events, perform
loopback operations section by section.5. Replace the parts whose performance may deteriorate with new ones.

Description
1 Pay special attention to the following alarms:l TEMP_ALARMl HARD_BADl MW_CFG_MISMATCH
2 See 5.5 Troubleshooting Pointer Justifications.
3 The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:1. Check whether the line board reports the B1_EXC, B1_SD, or
RS_CROSSTR alarm.2. Interchange the Tx fiber core and the Rx fiber core at both ends of the
service path. If bit errors change after the exchange, it indicates that thefiber is faulty. Otherwise, the equipment at both ends of the service pathis faulty.
3. In the case of a fiber fault, check whether the fiber between the equipmentand the ODF and the section of the fiber that is led out of thetelecommunications room are pressed. In addition, check whether the fiberconnectors are clean.
4. In the case of faults at both ends of the service path, use a fiber jumper toloop back the optical ports. If the fault persists after the loopback, the lineboard may be faulty.
5. In the case of faults at both ends of the service path, you can also replacethe board where the line unit is located or interchange between the boardand another board of the same type that is working normally. If the alarmchanges after the exchange, it indicates that the board is faulty.
4 The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:1. Check whether the IF board reports the MW_BER_EXC,
MW_BER_SD, MW_FEC_UNCOR, MW_LOF, RPS_INDI,B1_EXC, B1_SD, or RS_CROSSTR alarm.
2. If any of the alarms are reported, see 5.3 Troubleshooting the RadioLink and rectify the fault.
3. If none of the alarms occurs, replace the IF board.
5 The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:1. Perform a loopback on the line board that reports the alarm.
If the fault persists after the loopback, replace the line board.If the fault is rectified after the loopback, replace the line board at thetransmit end.
2. If you fail to rectify the fault by replacing the line board, check whetherthere is a power surge or an external interference source or whether theequipment is not properly grounded.

6 The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:1. Replace the board where the services are configured based on how the
service paths that have bit errors overlap each other.2. If you fail to rectify the fault by replacing the board, check whether there
is a power surge or an external interference source or whether theequipment is not properly grounded.
Experience and SummaryNOTE
The TDM services mentioned refer to Native TDM services.The handling procedure applies when the STM-1e port. is faulty
l During the routine maintenance, check bit error performance events periodically and handlethem in time.
l To locate a fault, prefer the method of analyzing alarms and performance events to themethod of performing loopback operations and the method of replacing the parts.
5.5 Troubleshooting Pointer JustificationsWhen an NE reports a large number of justification events about the administrative unit (AU)pointer or the tributary unit (TU) pointer, there are pointer justification faults.
Fault PhenomenaWhen the position of the first byte of the VC-4 in the AU-4 payload changes, the AU pointermakes a justification accordingly. The performance events related to the AU pointer justificationare as follows:
l AUPJCHIGHl AUPJCLOWl AUPJCNEW
NOTE
The AU pointer justification is made at an upstream NE but is detected and reported at a downstream NE.
When the service is configured to be at the VC-12 level, apply the reframing process to terminatethe AU pointer justification. The terminating method is to transform the AU pointer justificationinto the TU pointer justification. The performance events related to the TU pointer justificationare as follows:
l TUPJCHIGHl TUPJCLOWl TUPJCNEW
NOTE
The TU pointer justification is made at the NE where the AU pointer is transformed into the TU pointer,but is detected and reported by the tributary board of the NE where services are terminated.

Fault Causesl The clock sources or the clock source levels are configured incorrectly. As a result, there
are two clock sources on the same network or a timing loop occurs.l The fiber connections are incorrect. As a result, a timing loop occurs.l The quality of the clock source declines, the clock unit is faulty, or there are other clock-
related faults.l The tributary board is faulty (only for the TU pointer justification).
Fault Locating MethodsWhen there are both AU pointer justifications and TU pointer justifications on a service path,first handle the AU pointer justifications and then the TU pointer justifications.
Fault Fault Locating Method
AU pointer justification 1. Analyze and clear clock alarms.2. Rectify the incorrect data configuration
and incorrect fiber connections.3. Change the clock configuration to locate
the station whose clock is asynchronouswith the entire network.
4. Replace the parts whose performance maydeteriorate with new ones.

Description
1 Pay special attention to the following alarms:l TEMP_ALARMl HARD_BADl LTIl SYNC_C_LOSl S1_SYN_CHANGEl EXT_SYNC_LOS
2 Check the following points:l Check whether there are two clock reference sources on the entire network.l Check whether a timing loop is generated.
3 Query ECC routes to check whether the fibers are connected correctly. Checkthe fiber connections in the east and west directions of the NE that reports thepointer justification event.
4 The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:1. Locate a VC-4 channel that reports an AU pointer justification event.2. Along the service source direction of the VC-4 channel, locate the source
NE of the entire VC-4 service (not the source NE of a timeslot in the VC-4).3. Set the clock of the source NE to the free-run mode. Set the other NEs to
trace the clock of the source NE along the direction of the VC-4 service.4. Along the clock tracing direction, locate the line board that is the first to
report the AU pointer justification of the VC-4 path.The clock of the remote NE to which the line board is connected isasynchronous with the reference clock. Hence, the line board on the remoteNE that receives the clock signal, the line board that sends the clock signalto the remote NE, and the clock unit of the remote NE, may be faulty.
5. Set the clock of the sink NE to the free-run mode. Set the other NEs totrace the clock of the sink NE along the direction of the VC-4 service.
6. Along the clock tracing direction, locate the line board that is the first toreport the AU pointer justification of the VC-4 path.The clock of the remote NE to which the line board is connected isasynchronous with the reference clock. Hence, the line board on the NEthat receives the clock signal, the line board that sends the clock signal tothe NE, and the clock unit of the NE, may be faulty.
7. Compare the results and find out the common points.
5 Replace the possibly faulty boards.

Description
6 The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:1. Modify the service configuration to ensure that the NE where the clock
reference source functions as the central NE and that the other NEs havethe E1 services of the central NE.
2. Along the clock tracing direction, locate the NE that is the first to reportthe TU pointer justification event.The clock of the NE is asynchronous with the reference clock. Hence, theline board on the NE that receives the clock signal, the line board that sendsthe clock signal to the NE, and the clock unit of the NE, may be faulty.
3. Modify the configuration data to ensure that all the NEs trace the clockalong the other direction.
4. Along the clock tracing direction, locate the NE that is the first to reportthe TU pointer justification event.The clock of the NE is asynchronous with the reference clock. Hence, theline board on the NE that receives the clock signal, the line board that sendsthe clock signal to the NE, and the clock unit of the NE, may be faulty.
5. Compare the results and find out the common points.NOTE
This method is also applicable to locating an AU pointer justification event.
7 Replace the possibly faulty boards. In the case of a TU pointer justificationevent, check whether the line board, the clock board, and the tributary boardare faulty.
Experience and Summary
On a properly synchronized network, there are few pointer justifications (less than six per dayon each port). Hence, monitoring the pointer of an SDH transmission system is an effective wayto check the synchronization status of the system.
5.6 Troubleshooting the Interconnection with SDHEquipment
An interconnection fault occurs when the NE fails in transmitting SDH services with other SDHequipment.
Fault Causesl The VC-12 numbering method of the OptiX equipment is different from the numbering
method of the equipment of certain vendors.
The OptiX equipment applies the timeslot numbering method. The numbering formula is:VC-12 number = TUG-3 number + (TUG-2 number - 1) x 3 + (TU-12 number - 1) x 21.This method is also called as the method of numbering by order.
OptiX RTN 910 Radio Transmission SystemMaintenance Guide (U2000) 5 Troubleshooting
Issue 01 (2011-10-30) Huawei Proprietary and ConfidentialCopyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
63
Certain equipment applies the line numbering method. The numbering formula is: VC-12number = (TUG-3 number - 1) x 21 + (TUG-2 number - 1) x 3 + TU-12 number. Thismethod is also called as the interleaved method.
l The overhead bytes at both ends are inconsistent.l The indexes of the SDH interfaces do not meet the requirements.
NOTE
In the case of interconnection with ATM or Ethernet equipment, the common cause for an interconnectionfailure is that the service is not set to the VC-4 pass-through service and thus the overheads are processedin the terminating mode instead of the pass-through mode.
Fault Locating MethodsAnalyze the fault phenomena and alarms that are generated on the equipment. Check the possiblefault causes one after another.

5 Query the rate of an Ethernet port and locate faults based on the analysisof Ethernet port rates.l If the Ethernet port connecting the peer equipment has a too high or too
low receive rate, the peer equipment is faulty.l If the rate of the Integrated IP radio port approaches or reaches the license
capacity of the IF port, the license capacity is too low and you need toapply for a license allowing for a higher capacity.
l If the transmit rate of the Integrated IP radio port approaches or reachesthe maximum Ethernet bandwidth of the IF port, the bandwidth of the IFport is too low and needs to be increased by the network planningpersonnel.
l If the transmit rate of the Integrated IP radio port is much lower than thereceive rate of the Ethernet port, or if the receive rate of the Integrated IPradio port is much higher than the transmit rate of the Ethernet port, thelocal end is faulty. Locate the fault as follows:– Check the Ethernet service configuration and QoS configuration.– By querying QoS packet loss data in RMON events on the NMS, check
whether QoS settings are correct according to the packet loss data.– Check the Ethernet interface board, IF board, and system control,
switching and timing board by means of board replacement.If the transmitted traffic is equal to the received traffic, query the traffic onthe same port in each VLAN to check whether bandwidth preemption occurs.

2 The troubleshooting procedure is as follows:l Check the Ethernet cable. If the Ethernet cable is not qualified, replace it
with a new one.l Change the Ethernet port that accesses the services on the Ethernet board.
If the new port does not have the RMON performance of an FCS error, itindicates that the hardware of the original port is faulty. Otherwise, thehardware of the Ethernet port on the equipment at the opposite end isfaulty.
3 Check the following points:l Whether the port operating rates on the equipment at both ends are the
samel Whether the working modes (full duplex or half duplex) of the Ethernet
port on the equipment at both ends are the samel Whether the Ethernet port is set to auto-negotiation mode at one end and
the Ethernet port is set to full duplex mode at the opposite end (When theEthernet port is set to auto-negotiation mode at one end, the Ethernet portmust not be set to full duplex mode at the opposite end.)
4 Check for the cause for excessive broadcast packets (for example, you haveset the loopback for the Ethernet interface board or set the VB filteringtable incorrectly) and solve the problem. If the problem is caused on theequipment at the opposite end, set the threshold of broadcast packetsuppression for an Ethernet port to reduce broadcast packets.
5 Test the MTU of the network by using a test meter. The maximum framelength that is set for a port should be longer than the MTU of the network.
Experience and SummaryTo troubleshoot an Ethernet service fault, you must be familiar with the characteristics, workingmode, and configured protocols of interfaces on the Ethernet equipment.
5.9 Troubleshooting Ethernet Service on the EoS/EoPDHPlane
The Ethernet services transmitted on the EoS/EoPDH plane can be transmitted over a TDMnetwork. The faults of the EoS/EoPDH-plane Ethernet services include service interruption andservice degradation.
Fault PhenomenaThe Ethernet service interruption indicates that the Ethernet service is completely interrupted.The Ethernet service deterioration indicates that the Ethernet service is abnormal. For example,the network access speed is low, the equipment delay is long, the packet loss occurs, or incorrectpackets exist in the received or transmitted data.

7 Database Backup and Restoration
About This Chapter
The OptiX RTN 910 supports database backup and restoration through the NMS.
7.1 NE DatabaseAn NE database stores the communication data, security data, alarm data, performance data, andconfiguration data of an NE in a certain structure to facilitate the relevant query and modification,hence ensuring that the data can be restored after the NE is reset.
7.2 Backing Up the Database ManuallyThe NE configuration data is stored in the database of an NE. To prevent the database frombeing damaged due to certain risky operations such as replacing a faulty system control, cross-connect, and timing board or upgrading the software, you need to manually back up the databaseon a regular basis and before performing any risk operation.
7.3 Setting the Database Backup PolicyYou can set the policy of backing up a database to realize the function of periodically backingup the database.
7.4 Restoring the DatabaseIf the database is damaged, you can restore the NE database by using the database files that aresaved previously.

7.1 NE DatabaseAn NE database stores the communication data, security data, alarm data, performance data, andconfiguration data of an NE in a certain structure to facilitate the relevant query and modification,hence ensuring that the data can be restored after the NE is reset.
An NE database includes the following types:
l Memory database (MDB)The data in the MDB varies according to the configuration and is lost when the systemcontrol unit is reset or when the NE is powered off.
l Dynamic random database (DRDB)The DRDB automatically stores the data that is checked successfully. The DRDB is residentin the reserved memory. Hence, the data in the DRDB is not lost when a warm reset isperformed on the system control unit. The data, however, is lost when a cold reset isperformed on the system control unit or when the NE is powered off.
l Flash database (FDB)The FDB includes FDB0 and FDB1. The FDB is resident in the flash memory on the board.Hence, the data in the FDB is permanently stored.
After being delivered to the system control unit, the NE configuration data is stored in the MDB.After checking the NE configuration data successfully, the system control unit automaticallycopies the data from the MDB to the DRDB and delivers the board configuration data generatedafter successful check to the relevant board.
The NE backs up the DRDB database into the FDB0 and FDB1 databases of the flash memoryat an interval of 30 minutes.
After the NE is restarted because of power-off, the system control unit checks whether theconfiguration data in the DRDB is available. If yes, the system control unit restores the data. Ifthe configuration data in the DRDB is damaged, the system control unit restores the data fromFDB0 or FDB1.
On the CF card, NE databases, system parameters (including NE-IP, NE-ID, and subnet mask),software packages, and NE logs are stored. After the CRV button on the system control,switching and timing board is pressed and held for 8 seconds, the data stored on the CF card isloaded to the board. To synchronize the data on the CF card with the NE databases, systemparameters, and NE logs on the system control, switching and timing board, the regular backupfunction needs to be enabled. By default, the data is backed up every 24 hours.
NOTE
The software packages on the CF card are updated with those on the system control, switching and timing boardduring package diffusion. Therefore, no automatic or manual operation is performed to synchronize the softwarepackages.
The system control, switching and timing board and the CF card must have same software packages. If theyhave different software packages, the SWDL_CHGMNG_NOMATCH alarm is reported.

Impact on the Systeml When this alarm occurs, the alarmed IMA link is unavailable. Therefore, the number of
available links in the IMA group decreases. If the bandwidth of the services configured forthe IMA group exceeds the total bandwidth of available IMA links, congestion occurs onthe IMA port, causing loss of cells.
l After this alarm is cleared, the affected IMA link becomes available.
Possible Causesl Cause 1: The path that carries the IMA link reports the SDH alarms, such as R_LOS,
R_LOF, and MS_AIS.
l Cause 2: The IMA protocol negotiation fails between the two ends.
l Cause 3: The IMA link is faulty.
Procedure
Step 1 Cause 1: The path that carries the IMA link reports the SDH alarms, such as R_LOS,R_LOF, and MS_AIS.
If... Then...
The path reports any SDH alarm Handle the relevant alarms first.
The path does not report any SDH alarm Go to Cause 2.
Step 2 Cause 2: The IMA protocol negotiation fails between the two ends.
1. Disable the IMA protocol at the two ends.
2. Check the IMA group configuration at the two ends and ensure that the configuration isconsistent.
3. Enable the IMA protocol at the two ends.
4. Then, check whether the alarm clears.
If... Then...
The alarm is cleared End the alarm handling.
The alarm persists Go to Cause 3.

Alarm Severity Alarm Type
Minor Communication alarm
ParametersNone.
Impact on the SystemWhen the CHCS alarm occurs, the services are not affected. The alarm only indicates that somecells with a bit error are detected during cell delimitation at the ATM port.
Possible Causesl Cause 1: A few bit errors occur in the receive tunnel corresponding to the alarmed ATM
port.l Cause 2: The ATM physical-layer processing chip of the board is faulty.
Procedure
Step 1 Cause 1: A few bit errors occur in the receive tunnel corresponding to the alarmed ATM port.1. On the NMS, check whether the receive tunnel reports any alarms about excessive bit errors,
such as B1_SD, B2_SD, and B3_SD.2. On the NMS, check whether the service is looped.3. If yes, modify the service configuration to release the loop, and then check whether the
alarm is cleared.
Step 2 Cause 2: The ATM physical-layer processing chip of the board is faulty.1. Perform a cold reset on the board that reports the CHCS alarm and check whether the alarm
is cleared. For details, see 8.6.1 Cold Reset.2. Optional: If the CHCS alarm persists after the cold reset, replace the alarmed board and
check whether the alarm is cleared. For details, see 6.5 Replacing the Smart E1 Board.NOTE

Impact on the Systeml During the HSB protection switching, services are interrupted. After the HSB switching is
complete, the services are restored to normal.l During the HSM protection switching, no bit errors occur and the services are not affected.
Possible Causesl The possible causes of the HSB protection switching are as follows:
– Cause 1: An external switching event occurs– Cause 2: An automatic switching event occurs.– Cause 3: A reverse switching event occurs.
l The possible causes of HSM protection switching are as follows:The quality of the main channel degrades.– In the case of Hybrid radio, the automatic switching condition of the HSM is that the
quality of the main channel degrades.– In the case of SDH/PDH radio, an alarm that triggers the HSM switching is reported on
the radio link.
Procedure
Step 1 Determine the type of the protection switching based on the alarm parameters.

Step 2 Cause 1 of HSB switching: An external switching event occurs. That is, the NMS issues acommand to trigger the switching.1. Check whether the switching is the forced switching or manual switching. For details, see
Querying the IF 1+1 Protection Status.
If... Then...
The switching is the forced switching ormanual switching
Find the cause and release the switchingimmediately.
The switching is not the forcedswitching or manual switching
Go to Cause 2 of HSB switching.
Step 3 Cause 2 of HSB switching: An automatic switching event occurs. That is, the equipment is faulty,or the service is defective.1. Check whether the following faults or alarms occur. If yes, rectify the faults or clear the
alarms.l The hardware of the IF board or the ODU is faulty.l VOLT_LOSl RADIO_TSL_HIGH, RADIO_TSL_LOW, or RADIO_RSL_HIGHl IF_INPWR_ABN or CONFIG_NOSUPPORTl R_LOC, R_LOF, R_LOS, or MW_LOF
NOTE
l If the switching is non-revertive, the services are not automatically switched to the working pathwhen the working path is restored to normal, and the RPS_INDI alarm persists. In this case, youneed to manually switch the services from the protection path to the working path. The RPS_INDIalarm is cleared only when the switching is successful.
l If the switching is revertive, the services are automatically switched to the working path onlywhen the specified wait-to-restore (WTR) time expires after the working path is restored tonormal. The RPS_INDI alarm is cleared only when the switching is successful.
Step 4 Cause 3 of HSB switching: A reverse switching event occurs.1. Query whether the active and standby IF boards report the MW_RDI alarm. If yes, take
priority to clear the MW_RDI alarm.
Step 5 Cause 1 of HSM switching: In the case of Hybrid radio, the quality of the main channel degrades.1. Check whether the AM_DOWNSHIFT alarm is reported by an IF board. If the alarm is
reported by an IF board, refer to AM_DOWNSHIFT to rectify the fault that causes thequality of the main channel to degrade. If the alarm is not reported by an IF board, thequality of the main channel degrades possibly due to the weather. In this case, you do notneed to handle the problem, because this is a normal situation.
Step 6 Cause 2 of HSM switching: In the case of SDH/PDH radio, an alarm that triggers the HSMswitching is reported on the radio link.1. Check whether any alarm that triggers the HSM switching is reported by an IF board of the
IF 1+1 protection group. If yes, take priority to clear the alarm.HSM switching may be triggered by any of the following alarms:l R_LOC, R_LOF, R_LOS, or MW_LOFl MW_BER_EXC, MW_BER_SD, MW_FEC_UNCORl B1_SD or B2_SD

– The fiber performance is degraded, and the fiber has extremely high attenuation.– The fiber connector is dirty or incorrect.– The equipment is improperly grounded.– A strong interference source is present near the equipment.– The working temperature is extremely high or extremely low, and the opposite
equipment cannot tolerate such temperature.l Equipment problems:
– The service code types are incorrect.– The board becomes faulty, or the performance of the board is degraded.
Procedure
Step 1 First eliminate external causes, such as poor grounding, too high operating temperature, too lowor too high the receiving optical power of the line board.
Step 2 Check whether the correct E1 service code is selected. If not, modify the code of the servicesreceived by a board by setting the code type of the board.

Possible CausesWhen the AM function is enabled, the transmission modulation scheme that the IF port on theIF board uses varies according to the quality of the link. Accordingly, the system counts theperformance events of the modulation scheme shift. When the low-efficiency modulationscheme is shifted to the high-efficiency modulation scheme, an upshift is recorded and oneFB_AMUCNT event is counted. Similarly, when the high-efficiency modulation scheme isshifted to the low-efficiency modulation scheme, a downshift is recorded and one FB_AMDCNTevent is counted.

E Alarm Management
The alarm management on the OptiX RTN 910 is classified into the NE alarm management andboard alarm management.
E.1 NE Alarm ManagementThe NE alarm management function set by user is applicable to all the boards on the NE.
E.2 Board Alarm ManagementThe board alarm management function is only applicable to the board on which users haveconfigured this function.

E.1 NE Alarm ManagementThe NE alarm management function set by user is applicable to all the boards on the NE.
The equipment supports the following NE alarm management functions:
l Settings of the alarm storage model Setting of the alarm delayl Setting of the alarm reversion mode
For details about these functions, see the manuals or online Help of the NMS.
E.2 Board Alarm ManagementThe board alarm management function is only applicable to the board on which users haveconfigured this function.
E.2.1 Setting the Alarm SeverityAlarms are classified into four levels: critical, major, minor, and warning, according to theirseverities. The maintenance personnel can change the alarm severity by using the NMS.
This function is supported by all the boards.
l Critical alarm: A critical alarm indicates a critical problem with the network. A criticalproblem can be the failure, overload, or system restart of mission-critical boards. It mustbe cleared immediately. Otherwise, system breakdown may occur.
l Major alarm: A major alarm indicates failure of certain boards or links, such ascommunication links. Urgent action is required to rectify the fault as this type of alarmsaffects the QoS of the system.
l Minor alarm: A minor alarm indicates a non-service affecting problem that needs to besolved, for example, fan speed exceeds threshold alarm. This type of alarms does not affectthe QoS of the system, but you need to locate and remove these faults in time.
l Warning alarm: A warning alarm indicates a potential error that may affect the QoS of thesystem, for example, License file expiring precaution alarm. This type of alarms needs tobe handled based on actual conditions.
Critical alarms and major alarms need to be handled immediately to avoid system failures andservice interruptions.
E.2.2 Alarm SuppressionThe maintenance personnel can change the alarm monitoring attribute by setting the alarmsuppression function. A board detects only the alarms that are not suppressed. The alarmsuppression function helps users to ignore their unconcerned alarms.
This function is supported by all the boards.
E.2.3 Alarm Auto-ReportIf Alarm Auto-Report is set to Reported, all the detected alarms are reported to the NMS in atimely manner. If Alarm Auto-Report is set to Not Report, the alarms are reported only when
OptiX RTN 910 Radio Transmission SystemMaintenance Guide (U2000) E Alarm Management
Issue 01 (2011-10-30) Huawei Proprietary and ConfidentialCopyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
723
alarm query is performed on the NMS. The maintenance personnel can change the setting onthe NMS.
This function is supported by all the boards.
E.2.4 Alarm ReversionIn the case of a port that is not configured with services, certain alarms may be reported. To filterthe alarms that users are not concerned, set these alarms to be reversed. In this manner, the alarmstatus at this port is the opposite to the actual case. That is, the status is displayed as normalwhen an alarm is actually reported.
The alarm reversion function is available in three modes, namely, non-reversion, automaticreversion, and manual reversion.
l Non-revertiveIn this mode, the alarms are monitored by default and alarm reversion cannot be enabledfor a port.
l Auto reversionIn this mode, alarm reversion can be enabled for a port where alarms are reported. Afteralarm reversion is enabled at a port, alarms are not reported. When the current alarm iscleared, the alarm reversion automatically changes to the disabled status. That is, it changesto the non-reversion mode. Then, the alarm reporting status at the port is the same as theactual status.
l Manual reversionIn this mode, alarm reversion can be enabled for a port regardless of whether any alarmsare reported at the port. After alarm reversion is enabled, the alarm reporting status at theport is opposite to the actual status. After alarm reversion is manually disabled, the alarmreversion status changes to the non-reversion mode. Then, the alarm reporting status at theport is the same as the actual status.
Pay attention to the following points when you set the alarm reversion function:
l Alarm reversion does not change the actual status of alarms on the board, as well as theindication status of the alarm indicators.
l Alarm reversion is realized on the NE software. The alarm data is the same on the NE andthe NMS, which indicates the status after the alarm reversion. If you directly query thealarm data of a board, however, the actual alarm status is returned.
l Alarm reversion is set based on ports. It is supported by each port on the SL1D, SP3S,SP3D, IFX2, IFU2, IF1, ISU2, ISX2, EM6X, MP1, EM4T, EM4F, EM6TB, EM6TA,EM6FA, SL1DA, EM6T, and EM6F boards.
E.2.5 Setting of the Bit Error Alarm ThresholdWhen the number of bit errors detected by a board exceeds a specified number, the boardgenerates a bit error alarm. This specific number is the bit error alarm threshold, and the settingof this threshold is supported by all the bit error threshold-crossing and degrading alarms on theNE.

access control list A list of entities, together with their access rights, which are authorized to have accessto a resource.
ACL See access control list
adaptive modulation A technology that is used to automatically adjust the modulation scheme according tothe channel quality. When the channel quality is favorable, the equipment adopts a high-efficiency modulation scheme to improve the transmission efficiency and the spectrumutilization of the system. When the channel quality is degraded, the equipment adoptsthe low-efficiency modulation scheme to improve the anti-interference capability of thelink that carries high-priority services.
ADC See analog to digital converter
add/drop multiplexer Network elements that provide access to all or some subset of the constituent signalscontained within an STM-N signal. The constituent signals are added to (inserted), and/or dropped from (extracted) the STM-N signal as it passed through the ADM.
Address ResolutionProtocol
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is an Internet Protocol used to map IP addresses toMAC addresses. It allows hosts and routers to determine the link layer addresses throughARP requests and ARP responses. The address resolution is a process in which the hostconverts the target IP address into a target MAC address before transmitting a frame.The basic function of the ARP is to query the MAC address of the target equipmentthrough its IP address.
adjacent channelalternate polarization
A channel configuration method, which uses two adjacent channels (a horizontalpolarization wave and a vertical polarization wave) to transmit two signals.
ADM See add/drop multiplexer
administrative unit The information structure which provides adaptation between the higher order path layerand the multiplex section layer. It consists of an information payload (the higher orderVC) and an AU pointer which indicates the offset of the payload frame start relative tothe multiplex section frame start.

alarm automatic report When an alarm is generated on the device side, the alarm is reported to the NetworkManagement System (NMS). Then, an alarm panel prompts and the user can view thedetails of the alarm.
alarm cascading The shunt-wound output of the alarm signals of several subracks or cabinets.
Alarm Filtering An NE reports the detected alarm to the element management system (EMS). Based onthe filter state of the alarm, the EMS determines whether to display or save the alarminformation. If the filter state of an alarm is set to Filter, the alarm is not displayed orstored on the EMS. The alarm, however, is still monitored by the NE.
alarm indication signal A code sent downstream in a digital network as an indication that an upstream failurehas been detected and alarmed. It is associated with multiple transport layers.
alarm suppression A function used not to monitor alarms for a specific object, which may be thenetworkwide equipment, a specific NE, a specific board and even a specific functionmodule of a specific board.
AM See adaptive modulation
analog to digitalconverter
An electronic circuit that converts continuous signals to discrete digital numbers. Thereverse operation is performed by a digital-to-analog converter (DAC).
APS See automatic protection switching
ARP See Address Resolution Protocol
assured forwarding One of the four per-hop behaviors (PHB) defined by the Diff-Serv workgroup of IETF.It is suitable for certain key data services that require assured bandwidth and short delay.For traffic within the bandwidth limit, AF assures quality in forwarding. For traffic thatexceeds the bandwidth limit, AF degrades the service class and continues to forward thetraffic instead of discarding the packets.
AsynchronousTransfer Mode
A protocol for the transmission of a variety of digital signals using uniform 53 byte cells.A transfer mode in which the information is organized into cells; it is asynchronous inthe sense that the recurrence of cells depends on the required or instantaneous bit rate.Statistical and deterministic values may also be used to qualify the transfer mode.

Capability of a transmission system to detect a failure on a working facility and to switchto a standby facility to recover the traffic.
automatic transmitpower control
A method of adjusting the transmit power based on fading of the transmit signal detectedat the receiver
available bit rate A kind of service categories defined by the ATM forum. ABR only provides possibleforwarding service and applies to the connections that does not require the real-timequality. It does not provide any guarantee in terms of cell loss or delay.

Synchronization StatusMessage
A message that carries quality levels of timing signals on a synchronous timing link.Nodes on an SDH network and a synchronization network acquire upstream clockinformation through this message. Then the nodes can perform proper operations on theirclocks, such as tracing, switching, or converting to holdoff, and forward thesynchronization information to downstream nodes.
synchronous digitalhierarchy
A transmission scheme that follows ITU-T G.707, G.708, and G.709. It defines thetransmission features of digital signals such as frame structure, multiplexing mode,transmission rate level, and interface code. SDH is an important part of ISDN and B-ISDN. It interleaves the bytes of low-speed signals to multiplex the signals to high-speedcounterparts, and the line coding of scrambling is used only for signals. SDH is suitablefor the fiber communication system with high speed and a large capacity since it usessynchronous multiplexing and flexible mapping structure.
synchronousequipmentmanagement function
The SEMF converts performance data and implementation specific hardware alarms intoobject-oriented messages for transmission over DCCs and/or a Q interface.
synchronous transportmode-1
Synchronous Transfer Mode at 155 Mbit/s.
SynchronousTransport Module
An STM is the information structure used to support section layer connections in theSDH. It consists of information payload and Section Overhead (SOH) information fieldsorganized in a block frame structure which repeats every 125. The information is suitablyconditioned for serial transmission on the selected media at a rate which is synchronizedto the network. A basic STM is defined at 155 520 kbit/s. This is termed STM-1. Highercapacity STMs are formed at rates equivalent to N times this basic rate. STM capacitiesfor N = 4, N = 16 and N = 64 are defined; higher values are under consideration.
synchronous transportmodule of order N
A STM-N is the information structure used to support section layer connections in SDH.See ITU-T Recommendation G. 707 for STM modules of order 1, 4, 16 and 64.
T
tail drop A type of QoS. When a queue within a network router reaches its maximum length,packet drops can occur. When a packet drop occurs, connection-based protocols such asTCP slow down their transmission rates in an attempt to let queued packets be serviced,thereby letting the queue empty. This is also known as tail drop because packets aredropped from the input end (tail) of the queue.
Tail drop A congestion management mechanism, in which packets arrive later are discarded whenthe queue is full. This policy of discarding packets may result in network-widesynchronization due to the TCP slow startup mechanism.

TIM trace identifier mismatch
time divisionmultiplexing
A multiplexing technology. TDM divides the sampling cycle of a channel into time slots(TSn, n=0, 1, 2, 3, ...), and the sampling value codes of multiple signals engross timeslots in a certain order, forming multiple multiplexing digital signals to be transmittedover one channel.
time to live A technique used in best-effort delivery systems to prevent packets that loop endlessly.The TTL is set by the sender to the maximum time the packet is allowed to be in thenetwork. Each router in the network decrements the TTL field when the packet arrives,and discards any packet if the TTL counter reaches zero.
TMN See Telecommunication Management Network
ToS priority A ToS sub-field (the bits 0 to 2 in the ToS field) in the ToS field of the IP packet header.
TPS See tributary protection switch
traffic engineering A technology that is used to dynamically monitor the traffic of the network and the loadof the network elements, to adjust in real time the parameters such as traffic managementparameters, route parameters and resource restriction parameters, and to optimize theutilization of network resources. The purpose is to prevent the congestion caused byunbalanced loads.
traffic engineeringdatabase
TEDB is the abbreviation of the traffic engineering database. MPLS TE needs to knowthe features of the dynamic TE of every links by expanding the current IGP, which usesthe link state algorithm, such as OSPF and IS-IS. The expanded OSPF and IS-IS containsome TE features, such as the link bandwidth and color. The maximum reservedbandwidth of the link and the unreserved bandwidth of every link with priority are ratherimportant. Every router collects the information about TE of every links in its area andgenerates TE DataBase. TEDB is the base of forming the dynamic TE path in the MPLSTE network.
Traffic shaping It is a way of controlling the network traffic from a computer to optimize or guaranteethe performance and minimize the delay. It actively adjusts the output speed of trafficin the scenario that the traffic matches network resources provided by the lower layerdevices, avoiding packet loss and congestion.
Transmission ControlProtocol
The protocol within TCP/IP that governs the breakup of data messages into packets tobe sent via IP (Internet Protocol), and the reassembly and verification of the completemessages from packets received by IP. A connection-oriented, reliable protocol (reliablein the sense of ensuring error-free delivery), TCP corresponds to the transport layer inthe ISO/OSI reference model.

two rate three colormarker
The trTCM meters an IP packet stream and marks its packets based on two rates, PeakInformation Rate (PIR) and Committed Information Rate (CIR), and their associatedburst sizes to be either green, yellow, or red. A packet is marked red if it exceeds thePIR. Otherwise it is marked either yellow or green depending on whether it exceeds ordoesn't exceed the CIR.

unspecified bit rate No commitment to transmission. No feedback to congestion. This type of service is idealfor the transmission of IP datagrams. In case of congestion, UBR cells are discarded,and no feedback or request for slowing down the data rate is delivered to the sender.
upload An operation to report some or all configuration data of an NE to the NMS(NetworkManagement system). The configuration data then covers the configuration data storedat the NMS side.
User DatagramProtocol
A TCP/IP standard protocol that allows an application program on one device to send adatagram to an application program on another. User Datagram Protocol (UDP) uses IPto deliver datagrams. UDP provides application programs with the unreliableconnectionless packet delivery service. Therefore, UDP messages can be lost, duplicated,delayed, or delivered out of order. UDP is used to try to transmit the data packet, that is,the destination device does not actively confirm whether the correct data packet isreceived.
user network interface The interface between user equipment and private or public network equipment (forexample, ATM switches).
V
