3 Disabling Service-Affecting Settings Automatically
Disabling Service-Affecting Settings Automatically
This section describes how to disable the service-affecting settings automatically. Serviceaffecting operations, such as loopback and laser shutdown, can be automatically disabled. That is, when the time for performing a service-affecting operation exceeds a certain period, the operation is disabled automatically.
Prerequisites You are an NMS user with "Maintenance Group" authority or higher.
Impact on System l
If a port is the only way that an NE communicates with the U2000, performing loopback or laser shutdown at the port will result in loss of communication. Before performing loopback or laser shutdown, you must set automatic disabling for this NE. Otherwise, after the communication is lost, you cannot use the U2000 to log in to the NE to disable loopback or laser shutdown.
l
The IPA function is used to shut down lasers on OA boards and Raman boards when a fiber is cut, so as to avoid personal injuries. For security reasons, Auto Disabling for IPA Disable can only be set to Enabled.

Background Information The OAU1 is the optical amplifier board with tunable gain. In actual use, calculate the gain range that can be set according to the intermediate insertion loss. The nominal gain refers to the gain of only signal light, that is, the difference between the nominal output and input optical power of signals of the board. The actual gain is the difference between the measured output and input optical power of the board. Hence, the actual gain includes both the gain of signal light and the gain of noise light. In normal cases, the actual gain is slightly greater than the nominal gain according to the number of added wavelengths.

Querying the FEC Mode
This section describes the basic method for querying the FEC type. There are two FEC types: FEC and AFEC.
Prerequisites You are an NMS user with "Maintenance Group" authority or higher. The board must be created.
Impact on System None
Tools, Equipment, and Materials U2000
Background Information The OTU board or line board uses FEC and AFEC (Advanced FEC) technology to perform the following functions: l
Decrease the requirements on the receiver optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) in order to extend the transmission distance between optical amplifiers or between REGs.
l
Provide a greater system margin and guarantee a lower BER rate in the line transmission to improve the quality of service (QoS) in the DWDM network.
The AFEC is a new error correction technique. It adopts two-level encoding, increases encoding gain, and equally distributes the burst errors. AFEC is more powerful than FEC.

Setting Alarm Masking
Alarm masking refers to that the alarms that are set to be masked are not reported to the NMS any more or the U2000 does not monitor unimportant alarms. In the case of equipment maintenance, test, or deployment, you can set alarm masking conditions to mask the alarms that do not need to be observed. Or you can set alarm masking on the U2000 to enable that the U2000 does not monitor unimportant alarms, improving the fault locating efficiency.
Prerequisites You are an NMS user with "Operator Group" authority or higher.
Background Information l
The function of masking alarms does not take effect for the alarms that are already reported. That is, after you set a masking policy, only the newly reported alarms that meet the mask conditions are masked.

Setting Alarm Reversion
In the process of deployment, certain alarms that are reasonable but meaningless occur. For example, when you configure a board for a service but not connect cables, the corresponding LOS alarm is generated. After the alarm reversion is set, the alarm is not displayed. This does not affect the network monitoring that is performed by maintenance engineers.
Prerequisites You are an NMS user with "Operator Group" authority or higher.
Background Information The setting of alarm reversion is applicable to only LOS alarms, including the R_LOS, MUT_LOS, OTS_LOS, OTS_LOS-O, OTS_LOS-P and OSC_LOS alarms. If you set alarm reversion for a port, the status of all alarms at this port is displayed as "no alarm" even though the alarms occur.
Impact on System l
When you set the alarm reversion for a port, the alarm status on this port is opposite to the actual situation. That is, alarms are not reported even if they exist.

Creating NEs in Batches
When the U2000 or Web LCT communicates properly with a GNE, you can search for all NEs that communicate with the GNE by using the IP address of the GNE or the network segment to which the IP address is associated. Then, you can create NEs in batches. This method is quicker and more accurate than manual creation. Therefore, the method of creating NEs in batches is recommended.
Prerequisites l
You are an NMS user with "Administrators" authority.
l
The U2000 must communicate properly with the GNE.
l
The NE Explorer instance of the NEs must be created.
For Web LCT, only NEs that use the Ethernet port to communicate can be searched out and the IP address of the Web LCT and that of the NE to be created are in the same network segment.

Precautions
NOTICE After changing the NE IP by U2000: l
If the IP address of the NE and the IP address of the NMS server are in the same network segment, the communication between the NMS and the NE is normal. In this case, you only need to re-log in to the NE.
l
If the IP address of the NE and the IP address of the NMS server are in different network segments, the communication between the NMS and the NE stops. In this case, set a new IP address for the computer where NMS is installed to restore the communication. Ensure that it is in the same IP subnet segment as the original NE IP. Because of the restriction of the SQL database, after you have changed the IP address of the computer, you must shutdown the NMS client/server, restart the computer and start the NMS client/server again.
After changing the NE IP by Web LCT: l
If the IP address of the NE and the IP address of the Web LCT are in the same network segment, the communication between the Web LCT and the NE is normal.
l
If the IP address of the NE and the IP address of the Web LCT are in different network segments, the communication between the Web LCT and the NE stops.

57 Modifying the NE ID
57
Modifying the NE ID
The ECC protocol uses the NE ID as the unique identifier of an NE. Hence, you need to assign a unique NE ID to each NE when planning a network. If an NE ID conflicts with another NE ID, it causes an ECC route conflict and the NMS cannot manage certain NEs. During the commissioning or expansion process, when you need to adjust the original network planning and change NE IDs, you can use the U2000 or Web LCT to change NE IDs.
Prerequisites You are an NMS user with "Operator Group" authority or higher.
Tools, Equipment and Materials U2000 or Web LCT
Background Information The master and slave subracks are displayed as one NE on the U2000. They share one NE ID and one NE IP.
Precautions
NOTICE l
Changing the NE ID is a dangerous operation, which may interrupt NE communication.
l
Before changing the NE ID, delete the service and function connected with the NE ID, for example, the protection group, IPA, ALC, fiber connection and so on. After changing the NE ID, reconnect the fiber connection and re-configure the protection group, IPA, ALC and other function connected with NE ID on the U2000.
l
Before changing the NE ID, delete the manually added monitoring relation between the WMU board and the OTU or line board on the NE. After changing the NE ID, restore the deleted monitoring relation on the U2000.

98 Creating OCh Trails by Trail Search
Creating OCh Trails by Trail Search
After you create fibers and configure services for WDM equipment on the U2000, the trail information does not exist at the network layer of the U2000. To manage OCh trails, search for the cross-connections and fiber connections data over the network to generate end-to-end WDM trails at the network layer of the U2000.
Prerequisite l
You are an NMS user with "Operator Group" authority or higher.
l
Fiber connections must be correctly created for the WDM equipment.
l
If certain cross-connections exist, you can create an optical-layer trail by using any of the following methods:
Precautions
– Delete the original cross-connection and create the optical-layer trail by using the trail function. This method affects services. – Complement cross-connections on NEs and search for the trail. l
You can create only single-NE optical cross-connections from the AM port to the OUT port of the RMU9 board and from the IN port to the DM port of the WSMD9/WSMD4/ WSMD2 board. In this case, the board optical cross-connection is not supported. These types of single-NE optical cross-connections do not impact services. You need to create these types of single-NE optical cross-connections and search for trails if you want to manage the services transmitted in the cross-connections by using the trail management function.
Tools, Equipment, and Materials U2000
Procedure for the U2000 1.
In the Main Topology view, choose Service > WDM Trail > Search for WDM Trail from the main menu.

In the searching by subnet mode, the selected subnet range should be independent from the networking. That is, no fiber connection exists between the selected subnet range and the area beyond the selected subnet range.
3.
Click Next to begin the search for trails. The U2000 takes a while for searching, depending on the number of services. NOTE
l If there are cross-connections that are collisions and these cross-connections cannot form end to end trails, the U2000 shows the conflicting trails after you perform the search operation. l The principles of verifying a conflict trail are as follows: If the networking changes, the trail may cause interruption of service flow. For example, the key information for the trail, including deleting a cross-connection or fiber, is verified.
4.
Click Next after searching, you can browse all trails found. If you want to set a trail management flag, right-click it and select the management flag. NOTE
Skip this step if you selected the "Automatically create trails after searching" policy in Step 2.
5.
Click Next to view all discrete services in the network. NOTE
If Step 4 is performed, the U2000 deletes trails that do not have the management flag from the network layer. This does not affect services for the actual NE or the data for an individual NE on the U2000.

99 Creating Single-Station Optical Cross-Connection
Creating Single-Station Optical CrossConnection
Optical cross-connection defines the routes of wavelengths. Through the creation of singlestation optical cross-connection, the routes of inter-board services are configured.
Prerequisite You are an NMS user with "Operator Group" authority or higher. The logic fiber connection inside a single station has been set up on the U2000/Web LCT. The edge port must be configured. When creating an optical cross-connection of a single station, make sure that the optical crossconnection of a board in this single station does not occupy the wavelength that the optical crossconnection of the single station uses.
Tools, Equipment, and Materials U2000 or Web LCT
Background Information When you create an optical cross-connection, the optical power can be adjusted automatically or manually. If you select Auto, the dynamic optical add/drop multiplexer board automatically adjusts the attenuation range of the optical attenuator in the board. If you select Manual, you need to manually adjust the attenuation range of the optical attenuator in the dynamic optical add/drop multiplexer board. The Auto option is available for the several types of optical crossconnection trails. For details, see Feature Description. NOTE
The WSMD4/WSMD2 can be used to replace the WSD9 or the WSM9. OA indicates the optical amplifier boards such as OAU1 and OBU1. The FIU can be added before or after the OA. In drop networking, the demultiplexer boards such as D40, D40V and MR2 can be added between the WSD9 and OTU. In add networking, the multiplexer boards such as M40, M40V and MR2 can be added between the OTU or line board and WSM9.

136 Inspecting and Cleaning the Optical Fiber Connectors
136.1 Overview Overview of the purpose and procedure of cleaning optical fiber connectors, the items that may cause pollution to optical connectors are also described here. Cleaning optical components is to remove dust or other dirt to avoid performance degradation of optical transmission systems. Here describes how to inspect and clean fiber connectors used in fiber optic connections. Figure 136-1 shows the optical fiber connector. Figure 136-1 Optical fiber connector
The following items should be removed because they pollute optical connectors that are extensively adopted in optical transmission systems: l
Dust
l
Oils (frequently from human hands)
l
Film residues (condensed from vapors in the air)
l
Powdery coatings (left after water or other solvents evaporate)
Dust is the most common dirt in optical connectors. Even small dust that can be seen only under a microscope can affect the quality of optical signals, degrade the system performance and cause potential instability in network operation. A one-micrometer dust granule on an optical connector of a single mode fiber can block 1% light and cause 0.05 dB lost. A nine-micrometer dust granule that cannot be seen by human eyes can block an entire fiber core. Therefore, small dirt even that cannot be seen by human eyes should be removed. NOTE
Before you connect any optical component, make sure that you have inspected and cleaned the component.
General Procedure Table 136-1 below describes the general procedure of how to inspect and clean the optical fiber connectors. Issue 02 (2013-12-31)
