ANI ATM Interfaces Anthony Alegrete Product Line Manager
Agenda • Why ATM? • Hardware • Software Features • Configuration Examples • Competitive • CMM Memory • Ordering Information • Summary
Why ATM? • ATM Backbones • Provide connectivity for Ethernet networks over ATM • Easy migration solution from existing ATM network to Ethernet • Alcatel benefits • Provides embedded ATM uplink capability for OS7000 • Utilizes carrier class system availability • Lowers transition costs (no need for separate ATM to GigE chassis) • Less boxes to manage • Standards based • Takes full advantage of integrated security solution • Integral part of Alcatel management solution
HardwareChassis • CMM memory • Redundancy requires 128M flash memory upgrade • Upgrade kit • New 128M bundles • New 128M CMMs • Primary CMM failover will not interrupt established PVCs • Hot-swapping and insertion same as current NIs • Module type, module revision level, part number, can be determined via SNMP, CLI and/or WebView
HardwareInterface Modules OS7-ANI3-U4 OS7-ANI12-U1 • OS7-ANI12-U1 • Single port OC-12c/STM-4 module • OS7-ANI3-U4 • Four port OC-3c/STM-1 module • LEDs • Standard OK1 and OK2 • Single LED per ATM port (No Link, Link Activity) • Bi-directional, wire-speed operation on all ports • Full line rate on all ports • Interoperates with: • Alcatel’s XOS ATM • Alcatel’s 7670 • Cisco • SONET interfaces supported: • SONET • SDH

HardwareOC12 Optics • OC12-SFP-LX • MOD, XCVR, OPT, SFP, OC-12c/STM-4 (622Mbps), IR, SM, DD, LC, 3.3V • Compliant with SONET / ITU-T and IEEE or FC • SFP transceivers fully compliant w/ SFP-MSA Spec. • OC12-SFP-LH • MOD, XCVR, OPT, SFP, OC-12c/STM-4 (622Mbps), LR-1, SM, DD, LC, 3.3V • Compliant with SONET / ITU-T and IEEE or FC • SFP transceivers fully compliant w/ SFP-MSA Spec.
Software FeaturesFunctional Support • ATM software provides the following main functions: • Configuring and deleting ATM PVCs • Configuring encapsulation type on VCs • Configuring ATM service categories on VCs • Administratively enabling/disabling VCs • Collecting cell statistics • Per VC • Configuring applications (services) on a VC • Routing Application Over ATM • Bridging Application Over ATM • Multicast Routing Over ATM
Software FeaturesAAL5 and Virtual Connection • Maximum 48 VCs per ATM blade. • VCs are configured as Routed or Bridged (not both simultaneously) • VPI valid range is 0-255 • VCI valid range is 0-65535 • Maximum 128 VCs per system • Ethernet to ATM integration: • VLAN mapping per VC • Maximum 4K VLANs per VC using 802.1q • Multiple VLANs supported per VC • Single VLAN will span multiple VCs • RFC2684 encapsulation used to support multiple VLANs over a VC • Classes of service supported: • UBR • UBR+ (UBR with MCR)
Software FeaturesServices • RFC2684 “Point to Point” Ethernet bridging and routing (IPv4) • Layer 2 services supported: • STP • 802.1D • 802.1w • 802.1s • UDP relay • Transparently transported GMAP & AMAP (next release) • Layer 3 services supported: • RIP & RIP II • OSFPv2 • IPX • VRRP • IP multicast bridging and IPMS supported: • Multicast routing supported over L2 bridge only • IP multicast routing protocols • DVMRP • PIM-SM
Software FeaturesQoS • ATM OC3/OC12 blades perform QoS for UBR, UBR+ & strict priority traffic • No Traffic Policing or Shaping is implemented in this release • There are 16 queues for UBR+ and one queue for UBR traffic • The classification is based on the 802.1p priority values. • Priority mapping: • 6 & 7 are mapped to Strict priority traffic which get the best QoS treatment • 5 is mapped to UBR+ traffic with a guaranteed rate of (xx) Meg per OC3 port and (xx) Meg per OC12 port • In the presence of UBR+ and strict priority traffic, there is no guaranteed treatment for UBR • Scheduling of priority based queues per port is done using SPWRR (strict priority weighted round robin) scheme.
Software FeaturesManagement • Three management interfaces supported: • Command Line Interface (CLI) • Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) • WebView • Text-Based Configuration supported • ATM and packet statistics gathered per VC basis • Cell Statistics (VC only) • 32 bit statistics, can be user cleared • Traps supported
Application ExamplesEthernet Bridging • Two VLANs at different remote sites connected through ATM • ATM PVCs are configured between OS1 and OS2 with bridged LLC/SNAP encapsulation • VCs associated to both VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 • Tagged or untagged packets entering OS1 from VLAN1/2 are switched with layer 2 bridging to ATM • Packets egress with LLC/SNAP encapsulation indicating Ethernet and with any appropriate tags • Packets switched via ATM arriving at OS2 where ANI reassembles packet and de-encapsulates LLC/SNAP • OS2 will bridge packets to interfaces VLAN 1 or VLAN2 as appropriate
