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 transmit power and the set value is more than 2 dB when the ATPC is disabled. The relevantalarms and performance events are as follows:
l RADIO_TSL_HIGH
l RADIO_TSL_LOW
l TSL_CUR
l TSL_MAX
l TSL_MIN
NOTE
For a detailed description of the range of the transmit power, refer to the OptiX RTN 950 Radio TransmissionSystem Product Description.
In the following two cases, the RSL is abnormal. The one case is that the receive power is lowerthan the ideal value (Ideal value = Planned value - 3 dB). The second case is that the receivepower is lower than the receiver sensitivity or higher than the free space receive power due tofading. The relevant alarms and performance events are as follows:
l RADIO_RSL_HIGH
l RADIO_RSL_LOW
l RSL_CUR
l RSL_MAX
l RSL_MIN
NOTE
For a microwave link on which the AM function is enabled, the receiver sensitivity refers to the receiversensitivity that guarantees the capacity.
For a detailed description of the receiver sensitivity, refer to the OptiX RTN 950 Radio Transmission SystemProduct Description.
Generally, external interference is classified into co-channel interference and adjacent channelinterference.
l Co-channel interference is crosstalk from two different radio transmitters reusing the samefrequency channel. Therefore, the entire spectrum may be impaired.
l Adjacent channel interference is signal impairment to one frequency due to presence ofanother signal on a nearby frequency. Therefore, a part of the spectrum is impaired.
Because interference is closely related to the frequency in use, the transmission over a microwavelink may be faulty in one direction only.

Fault Causes
Table 3-3 Causes of microwave link faults
Fault Common Fault Causes
The transmit power is abnormal. The ODU is faulty.
The receive power is always lower than theideal value.
l The antenna direction is not properlyadjusted.
l The antennas have different polarizationdirections.
l There is a mountain or obstacle in thetransmit direction.
l The antenna is faulty or the antenna and theODU are connected abnormally. Forexample, the waveguide interface on theODU is wet, or the flexible waveguide isloose.
l The ODU is faulty.
The receive power is abnormal due to slowup-fading.
There is an external interference.
The receive power is abnormal due to slowdown-fading.
The fading margin is not sufficient.
The receive power is abnormal due to fastfading.
The multipath fading is fast.
The receive power is always normal, but themicrowave link becomes faulty occasionally.
There is external interference.
NOTE
Depending on the received level, there is up fading and down fading.
l Up fading
The received level is higher than the value after free space fading. The difference can be 10-odd decibels.
l Down fading
The received level is lower than the value after free space fading. The difference can be tens of decibels.
Depending on the fading time, there is fast fading and slow fading.
l Fast fading
The fading duration time ranges from several milliseconds to tens of seconds.
l Slow fading
The fading duration time ranges from tens of seconds to several hours.
Because slow down fading and fast fading are imposed by the propagation paths, the microwave link may befaulty in both directions.

Note Description
④ Handlethe anomalythat thereceivepower issmaller thanthe idealvalue.
Follow the steps below:1. If the RSL decreases dramatically and does not recover, check the
installation of the antenna. Check whether the azimuth angle of the antennameets the requirement.
2. If the RSL difference between the main and standby ODUs on one end ofa 1+1 HSB microwave link exceeds the range 0 to 9 dB (for the unbalancedhybrid coupler) or the range 0 to 5 dB (for the balanced hybrid coupler),determine the faulty part by replacing the ODU or hybrid coupler.
3. If the RSL difference between the receive and transmit ends exceeds 10dB, determine the faulty ODU by replacing the ODU.
4. Check the antenna direction. Check whether the received signal is from themain lobe.If the antenna direction does not meet the requirement, adjust the antennain a wide range.
5. Check whether the setting of the polarization direction of the antenna iscorrect. Adjust wrong polarization direction.
6. Determine the faulty part by replacing the ODU or hybrid coupler.7. Check whether the antenna gain at both the transmit and receive sides meets
the indexes. Replace unqualified antennas.8. Check whether there is a mountain or obstacle in the transmit direction.
⑤ Handlethe up slowfading fault.
Follow the steps below:1. Check whether there is co-channel interference.
1. Mute the opposite ODU.2. Check the RSL at the local end. If the RSL exceeds –90 dBm, you can
infer that there is co-channel interference that may impair the long-termavailability and performance of the system.
2. Use a spectrum analyzer to analyze the interference source.3. Contact the spectrum management department to clear the interference
spectrum or change plans to reduce the interference.
⑥ Handlethe downslow fadingfault.
Contact the network planning department to make the following changes:l Increase the installation height of the antenna.
l Reduce the transmission distance.
l Increase the antenna gain.
l Increase the transmit power.

Note Description
⑦ Handlethe fastfading fault.
Contact the network planning department to make the following changes:l Adjust the position of the antenna to block the reflected wave or make the
reflection point fall on the ground that has a small reflection coefficient,thus reducing the multipath fading.
l Adjust the RF configuration to make the links in the 1+1 SD configuration.
l For the links in the 1+1 SD configuration, adjust the height differencebetween two antennas to make the receive power of one antenna muchstronger than that of another.
l Increase the fading margin.
⑧ Handletheinterferencefault.
The handling procedure is as follows:1. Check whether there is co-channel interference.
1. Mute the opposite ODU.2. Check the RSL at the local end. If the RSL exceeds –90 dBm, you can
infer that there is co-channel interference that may impair the long-termavailability and performance of the system.
2. Check whether there is adjacent channel interference.1. Mute the opposite ODU.2. Adjust the microwave working mode at the local end and use the
minimum channel spacing.3. Decrease the received frequency at the local end by a half of the channel
spacing.4. Test and record the RSL.5. Increase the received frequency at the local end, with a step length of
0.5 MHz or 1 MHz, and record the RSL accordingly until the receivedfrequency is equal to the original received frequency plus a half of thechannel spacing.
6. Compare the recorded RSLs, and check whether the RSL in a certainspectrum is abnormal if the received frequency is within the permittedrange.
3. Use a spectrum analyzer to analyze the interference source.4. Contact the spectrum management department to clear the interference
spectrum or change plans to reduce the interference.
⑨ Use theloopbackmethod tolocate a fault.
Follow the steps below:1. Perform the inloop on the IF port.
If the fault is not cleared after the loopback, replace the IF board.2. Check whether the cable connector is made in accordance with
specifications. If not, make the connector again. For details, refer toQuickly Installation Guide.
3. Check whether the IF cable is soggy, broken or pressed. If yes, replace theIF cable.
4. Replace the ODU.If the fault is cleared after the replacement, the original ODU is faulty.

Impact on the Systeml When the NE fails to communicate with the T2000, other NEs that communicate with the
T2000 through this NE become unreachable to the T2000, if they cannot be connected tothe T2000 in other manners. The other NEs are not affected.
l If the physical channel that carries the inband DCN is faulty, the other services carried inthis physical channel are affected.
Possible CausesAs shown in the troubleshooting flowchart, the inband DCN faults may be due to the followingcauses:
3 TroubleshootingOptiX RTN 950 Radio Transmission System
Maintenance Guide
3-26 Huawei Proprietary and ConfidentialCopyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
Issue 02 (2009-06-30)
l Cause 1: The physical connection between the faulty NE and the T2000 is interrupted.
l Cause 2: The inband DCN port of the faulty NE is not enabled.
l Cause 3: The received signals of the faulty NE are lost, or the received optical power isexcessively low, and thus the DCN packets cannot be extracted.
l Cause 4: The board is faulty.
l Cause 5: The bandwidth configured for the inband DCN channel is excessively small.
l Cause 6: The board on the faulty NE is being reset or the active/standby switching of boardsis performed, and thus the inband DCN packets cannot be responded.
Tools, Instruments, and Materials
T2000
Precautions
CAUTIONBefore locating the faults, you should check whether each board on the NE is of the mappingversion. If a board is not of the mapping version, replace the board in time.
NOTE
When handling the inband DCN faults, perform the following operations:
l If the NE communication is interrupted, you should handle the faults of the gateway NE, and thenhandle the faults of the non-gateway NEs.
l If the NE communication is not interrupted, handle the faults of the non-gateway NEs first, and thenhandle the faults of the gateway NE. Hence, the non-gateway NEs are prevented from being unreachableto the T2000.
Procedurel Cause 1: The physical connection between the faulty NE and the T2000 is interrupted.
1. Check whether the network cables or fibers of the faulty NE are disconnected fromthe ports. If the network cables or fibers are disconnected from the ports, insert thenetwork cables or fibers again.
l Cause 2: The inband DCN port of the faulty NE is not enabled.
1. Check whether the ports, which support the DCN function by default, are connectedwith the fibers or cables. If not, change the present port to a port whose DCN functionis enabled by default. Availability provides the information about the ports of OptiXRTN 950 whose DCN function is enabled by default.
2. Check whether the ports at the two ends of the link are enabled. If not, enable theinband DCN port. For details, see Enabling the Port DCN in the FeatureDescription manual.
l Cause 3: The received signals of the faulty NE are lost, or the received optical power isexcessively low, and thus the DCN packets cannot be extracted.
OptiX RTN 950 Radio Transmission SystemMaintenance Guide 3 Troubleshooting
Issue 02 (2009-06-30) Huawei Proprietary and ConfidentialCopyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
3-27
1. Check whether the ETH_LOS, or IN_PWR_ABN alarm exists on the boardconfigured with the inband DCN channel. For details, see 8.2 Querying CurrentAlarms of a Board. Clear these alarms.
l Cause 4: The board is faulty.1. Check whether the HARD_BAD alarm exists on the board configured with the inband
DCN channel.2. If the alarm exists, replace the board that reports the alarm. For details, see 5 Replacing
Components.l Cause 5: The bandwidth configured for the inband DCN channel is excessively small.
1. When the number of services configured on the port exceeds a certain number, partof the query information may be lost. In this case, you should properly increase thebandwidth configured for the inband DCN channel. For details, see Setting the VLANID and Bandwidth Used by an Inband DCN in the Feature Description manual.
l Cause 6: The board on the faulty NE is being reset or the active/standby switching isperformed, the inband DCN packets cannot be responded.1. Observe whether the PROG indicator on the system control board is blinking in green.
If the indicator is blinking in green, it indicates that the system control board is in thereset state. After the PROG indicator is always on in green, the reset of the systemcontrol board is complete and the DCN connection is automatically recovered.
NOTE
If the active/standby switching occurs on the system control board, a warm reset is performedon Active Board.
2. If the DCN response does not recover, check whether the protection switching occurson other boards. If other boards are switched, the inband DCN packets are in thererouting state. For details, see 8.23 Querying Protection Configuration.
3. If the protection switching occurs on the boards, after the DCN rerouting is complete,the response is automatically recovered.
l If any problems occur during the troubleshooting, contact Huawei engineers. For thecontact information, see 3.15 Fault Notification and Technical Support.

Backing up and Restoring All Data in the T2000 DatabasesThe T2000, when initially installed, automatically creates five databases, that is, the T2000databases.
l T2000DB, which stores the core data of the server, including all MO data and static data.This database can be accessed using the Ems Server process.
l iMapAlarmDB, which stores alarm data, including data about current and history alarms.This database can be accessed using the Ems Server process.
l iMapTopoDB, which stores topology data in the T2000 client. This database can beaccessed using the Topo Server process.
l iMapLogDB, which stores operation logs.
l iMapSecurityDB, which stores security data. This database can be accessed using theSecurity Server process.
To back up the T2000 databases is to save these five databases as OS files. The data for backupcovers customization on the T2000, network-layer trail, NE configuration, alarms, andperformance events. In addition, the complete database structure, tables in the databases (systemtable and user table), table structure, and storage process are also backed up.
NOTE
Backup of the T2000 databases excludes the following data:
l Data not stored on NEs, that is, data not uploaded
l User preferences of the system
Backing Up and Restoring Script-Based T2000 Network Configuration DataExport the data stored in the database as script files. Export or import the script files to back upor restore the T2000 network configuration data. The script files are basic data for script importand export. When the T2000 is upgraded, importing and exporting scripts is one way to achievesmooth upgrade of the configuration data. Table 4-1 lists the types of script files supported bythe T2000 and data contained in each script file.

NOTE
You can also specify a remote server for restoring the NE databases. For specific operations, see the OptiXiManager T2000 Operation Guide for RTN NE Management.
NE DatabaseNE configuration data is stored in the NE databases on the system control board. The types ofNE databases are as follows:
l Memory database (MDB): The data in this database varies with the configurationinformation, and is lost when the system control board is reset or powered off.
l Dynamic random database (DRDB): This database automatically stores data that is verified.
l Flash database (FDB): FDB is divided into FDB0 and FDB1. The data in FDB is copiedfrom DRDB and can be stored permanently.
The NE configuration data, when delivered, is first stored in MDB. Then, the data is verified. Ifthe data passes the verification, the system control board automatically copies data from MDBto DRDB and delivers the generated configuration data to other boards. Data needs to be copiedfrom DRDB to FDB, which then backs up DRDB.
When the NE restarts upon a power failure, the system control board checks for configurationdata in DRDB. In the case of any configuration data in DRDB, the system control board restoresdata from DRDB; in the case any damage to the configuration data in DRDB, the system controlboard restores data from FDB0 and FDB1.
NE Configuration DataThe NE configuration data refers to the information in DRDB of the NE, such as the boardconfiguration, clock configuration, and protection relations of the NE. The NE configurationdata is the instruction file of the NE and the key for the NE to normally operate in the entirenetwork.
NE Database PackageThe NE database package indicates a collection of all database files on an NE. A file list definesand manages those files in the package.
The NE database package contains the same data as the NE configuration data. The data is calleddifferently for different NE releases. In the case of an NE of release 5.00.06 or later, you canback up and restore the NE database package.
4.2.2 Backing Up the NE Database to the System Control BoardDuring routine maintenance, back up the NE database for restoring data when the system controlboard loses data or the equipment power-off is unexpectable. To back up the NE database to thesystem control board is to back up the NE data to the flash of the system control board. Whenthe NE restarts after a power failure, the system control board automatically reads theconfiguration data from the flash and delivers the configuration data to other boards.
Prerequisitel You must log in to the NE as an NE user of the system level.
l You must be a T2000 user with "NE and Network Operator" authority or higher.

6.1 Software Package UpgradeIn the case of the NE software upgrade, you can perform the software package upgrade toupgrade, activate, and manage the NE software in a centralized manner, and thus to simplify theoperations to upgrade the NE software.
6.1.1 Definition and FeatureIn the case of software package upgrade, the NE-level software is upgraded, activated andmanaged in a centralized manner. With the help of the software package upgrade, the processof upgrading software of an NE is simplified and the availability of upgrade operations isimproved. In addition, the system checks whether the board software versions match, andupdates the unmatched board software versions automatically.
6.1.2 State ModelThis section describes the state model of software package upgrade.
6.1.3 Realization SchemeThis section describes the flow for implementing the software package upgrade.
6.1.4 Creating a Package Upgrade TaskThis section describes the operations for upgrading the software package in details.
6.1.1 Definition and FeatureIn the case of software package upgrade, the NE-level software is upgraded, activated andmanaged in a centralized manner. With the help of the software package upgrade, the processof upgrading software of an NE is simplified and the availability of upgrade operations isimproved. In addition, the system checks whether the board software versions match, andupdates the unmatched board software versions automatically.
Software package upgrade has the following features:
l The object of software package upgrade is the NE. A uniform interface is available to loadthe software.
l The complete software package is stored on the CF card of the CXPR for upgrading theentire NE. The NE software files are stored on the target directory, and the board softwarefiles are buffered on the CF card. Hence, after a board is newly housed, the board softwareis automatically updated. If any board software file is lost, the CXPR restores the file.
l An NE can be automatically managed. The software of a newly housed board isautomatically updated if the software does not match the software in the software packagefor the NE.
l Software package upgrade is an incremental upgrade process in which only the new filesare updated.
Software package upgrade applies to the following scenarios:
l Upgrade of NE software
l Replacement of the CXPR board
6.1.2 State ModelThis section describes the state model of software package upgrade.

l After the software is delivered, the software state changes from the file copy ending stateto the software delivery ending state. In this way, the software package is dispensed. Fordetails on the implementation, see Step 3 and Step 4 in 6.1.3 Realization Scheme.
l After the software is activated, the software state changes from the software delivery endingstate to the active state. In this way, the NE is activated. For details on the implementation,see Step 5, Step 6, and Step 7 in 6.1.3 Realization Scheme.
l After the software state changes from the active state to the normal state, the software issubmitted. For details on the implementation, see Step 8 and Step 9 in 6.1.3 RealizationScheme.
l If any problem occurs before the software package is submitted or after the operation foreach state is completed, perform the rollback operation to revert software to the normalstate. In this way, the software package is rolled back.
NOTE
The rollback operation means that all the board software files on the entire NE are restored to the originalstate if any problem occurs. The rollback operation cannot be performed after the software package issubmitted. After the rollback operation is performed, the NE is in the to-be-steady state. In this case, youcannot load the software package. Instead, you need to wait for some time to perform other operations untilthe system becomes steady.If you want to stop the upgrade of the software when delivery of the software is in process, you can manuallyperform rollback.

NOTE
Numbers 1~9 in Figure 6-2 indicate the steps in the main flow of upgrading the software package.
PrecautionsNOTE
During software package upgrade, services maybe interrupted. The upgrade time depends on the numberof NEs and boards. Normally, upgrading a software package for an NE takes five to ten minutes.
Procedure
Step 1 Start the package upgrade procedure on the T2000.
Step 2 The sub-system of the software on the system control board downloads the new software packagefrom the software package server.
Step 3 The standby system control board then updates its software package to keep consistent with theactive system control board. (If only one system control board is configured, skip this step.)
Step 4 The active system control board then loads the new software onto the boards that support thesoftware package upgrade and require updated software.
Step 5 Activate the standby system control board. (If only one system control board is configured, skipthis step.)
Step 6 Switching the active CXPR to the standby CXPR. (If only one system control board isconfigured, skip this step.)
Step 7 Activate all the boards.
Step 8 The standby CXPR and other boards are then required to replace the software stored in thebackup area with the software stored in the working area.
NOTE
The working area and backup area refer to the areas where the software package is stored on the board.
Step 9 The software backup is complete and the result is reported.
----End
6.1.4 Creating a Package Upgrade TaskThis section describes the operations for upgrading the software package in details.
Prerequisitel You must be a T2000 user with "NE and network operator" authority or higher and enter
the Main Topology.l Make sure that the active and standby CXPR boards are of the same type, and NE software
versions are consistent. Otherwise, the database cannot be synchronized and services aredelivered abnormally during the package upgrade. As a result, the package upgrade maybe rolled back. For details, see 8.3 Querying the Board Information Report.
l Make sure that the protection switching can be performed normally for boards configuredwith 1+1 protection switching.

l If an NE is configured with only one CXPR board, a cold reset on the CXPR board mayresult in an automatic cold reset of all the service boards. As a result, services areinterrupted. Thus, prepare a spare board during the upgrade.
l Before upgrading the software package, perform "Precheck" to check the NE health. Loadthe software package if all the items pass the check.
l You would better clear all the alarms of the NE, but the alarms in Table 6-1 must be cleared,because the alarms may cause service interruption or rollback of the package upgrade. Thealarms that cannot be cleared may affect the services during switching or reset. It isrecommended to request Huawei technical support engineers to confirm the impact.

l Normal state. No diffusion information is set on the node, or the diffusion is completed.
l Initialization state. Diffusion information is successfully set on the NE. This state isessential for later diffusion.
NOTE
l The source node receives the information, indicating that the files are ready, from the applicationmodule.
l A node rather than the source node receives the information, indicating that the files are ready,from the upstream node.
l Pending state. The local node is waiting for file data from the upstream node.
l Transmission state. The local node is receiving file data from the upstream node.
l Completion state. In this state, the local node waits until the diffusion on the downstreamnode is completed.
l Suspension state. In this state, the local node informs the upstream and downstream nodesof updating diffusion information.
6.2.3 Realization SchemeCertain rules should be observed when using the software package diffusion technology.
Precautions
Observe the following rules when using the software package diffusion technology.
l The diffusion network should not contain any NE of the type that is not supported by thesoftware package for diffusion.
l On all NEs involved in the diffusion, the FLASH on the CXPR board should have sufficientspace for the software package, and the file system in the memory can hold the file of themaximum size in the software package.
l All NEs involved in the package diffusion must be in the same diffusion network and thecommunication between every two NEs must be available.
l In one diffusion network, only one software package can be diffused at a time.
l Only one source node is present in a diffusion network. Except the source node, each nodeshould have a maximum of one upstream node. One upstream node should not repeat anydownstream node. Downstream nodes should not repeat each other.
l In a diffusion network, the quantity of nodes allowed is 100.
6.2.4 Creating a Package Diffusion Upgrade TaskThis section describes how to upgrade the software package by means of diffusion.
Prerequisitel You must be a T2000 user with "NE and network operator" authority or higher and enter
the Main Topology.l The target NEs and the gateway NE for them must be created and logged into. The T2000
server can normally communicate with NEs.l At least two target NEs supporting the package diffusion must be present. NEs in the same
diffusion group to be created must be of the same type and no diffusion group is created.

l Make sure that the active and standby CXPR boards are of the same type, and NE softwareversions are consistent. Otherwise, the database cannot be synchronized and services aredelivered abnormally during the package upgrade. As a result, the package upgrade maybe rolled back. For details, see 8.3 Querying the Board Information Report.
l Make sure that the protection switching can be performed normally for boards configuredwith 1+1 protection switching.
l If an NE is configured with only one CXPR board, a cold reset on the CXPR board mayresult in an automatic cold reset of all the service boards. As a result, services areinterrupted. Thus, prepare a spare board during the upgrade.
l Before upgrading the software package, perform "Precheck" to check the NE health. Loadthe software package if all the items pass the check.
l You would better clear all the alarms of the NE, but the alarms in Table 6-2 must be cleared,because the alarms may cause service interruption or rollback of the package upgrade. Thealarms that cannot be cleared may affect the services during switching or reset. It isrecommended to request Huawei technical support engineers to confirm the impact.

2. If there is only one NE, refer to 6.1.4 Creating a Package Upgrade Task.l During the process of the data backup, software rollback, and software submission, the active/
standby switching for the CXPR boards should not be performed.l During the package diffusion upgrade, do not insert, remove any board, configure any service,
and reset any board by using commands. Otherwise, the loading fails and rollback occurs.l During the package diffusion upgrade, do not modify any configuration. Otherwise, rollback
may occur or the modified configuration is lost.l When the board loaded with software is in service, the board automatically matches the
loaded software. In this case, if you query the software version, the query result may showthat the software is of the original version. The version information is updated only after theboard finishes writing the flash and the resetting.
NOTE
In the following cases, perform other operations five minutes later.
l The working board restarts after resetting.
l The active and standby boards are switched.
l Matched loading is performed for the active and standby boards, and the loading operation is complete.
l The rollback is completed.
l The software is submitted.

ConceptsWhen faults or anomalies occur in the network, a series of alarms are reported. Some of thealarms are crucial to fault locating and these alarms are considered as key alarms. Some alarmsinterfere in the fault locating and these alarms are considered as interference alarms. Then, thekey alarms and the interference alarms have the alarm correlation.
Alarms with correlation have the following features:l Alarms (root alarm) directly caused by faults or anomalies can generate some other alarms
(non-root alarms). The root alarms and non-root alarms have the alarm correlation.l If multiple alarms result from the same fault or anomaly, these alarms have the alarm
correlation.
To make the alarm information facilitate the fault locating in a more effective manner, you canset the alarm correlation rules on the T2000 and enable the alarm correlation analysis function.Then, you can make the NE only report the key alarms, that is, make the key alarms suppressthe relevant interference alarms.
RulesThe alarm correlation rules for the OptiX RTN 950 are as follows:l The alarm suppression is realized in the same equipment.
l The root alarm suppresses the non-root alarm.
l The alarm resulting from the fault at the lower layer of the service hierarchical modelsuppresses the alarm resulting from the fault at the upper layer of the service hierarchicalmodel.
Layers, from the lower to the upper in the service hierarchical model, are physical, data link,tunnel, PW and emulated service. In the model, the upper layers depend on the services providedby the lower layers. When a lower layer and a upper layer have faults at the same time, to removethe fault at the upper layer, the fault at the lower layer must be removed first. At this time, thealarm resulting from the lower-layer fault suppresses the alarm resulting from the upper-layerfault.
NOTE
l Be cautious to set the alarm correlation rules, because they are the basis of the alarm correlation analysisand can affect the result of the analysis.
l Normally, use the default correlation rules on the T2000.
l The alarm correlation analysis function is disabled by default. To use the alarm correlation rules toperform the alarm correlation analysis, you need to manually enable the analysis function.
As show in Figure 9-2, the alarm correlation rules are illustrated based on the Ethernet servicescarried at the Ethernet port.

IllustrationAs shown in Figure 9-3, an E-Line service is configured between NE1 and NE3, and NE2 isinvolved. Each segment of the service is over the FE link. In addition, the alarm correlationanalysis function is enabled for NE1, NE2 and NE3.
Figure 9-3 Illustration of the alarm correlation analysis
NE 1 NE 2 NE 3
ETH _LINK_ DOWN ETH_LINK _ DOWN MPLS_TUNNEL_FDI
When the receive working mode is inconsistent with the transmit working mode on the FE linkbetween NE1 and NE2, the ETH_LINK_DOWN alarm is reported at the relevant ports on NE1and NE2. Because the alarm correlation analysis function is enabled for the three NEs, theETH_LINK_DOWN alarm suppresses the MPLS_TUNNEL_BDI, LAG_MEMBER_DOWN(if there is an LAG), MAC_FCS_EXC and ETH_EFM_DF alarms. In the meantime, NE2transmits the MPLS_TUNNEL_FDI notification packet to NE3. After NE3 receives thenotification packet, the MPLS_TUNNEL_LOCV alarm is suppressed.
According to the previous illustration, if all the NEs in the network are enabled with the alarmcorrelation analysis function, when faults occur in the network, the NEs only need to report thekey alarms to the T2000. This can facilitate the fault location.
9.1.3 Alarm CategoryAccording to the standards and functions of the T2000, alarms are classified into severalcategories.
The six types of alarms are listed as follows:l Communication alarm, which indicates anomalies in NE communication and optical signal
communication, such as interruption of NE communication and loss of optical signals.l Processing alarm, which indicates anomalies in software processing, such as failure to back
up database, and failure to perform protection switching.l Equipment alarm, which indicates anomalies in equipment hardware, such as failure of the
laser and loopback of the optical interface.l Service alarm, which indicates anomalies in service status and network QoS, such as MS
performance over-threshold.l Environment alarm, which indicates anomalies in the power supply system and the
equipment room environment (temperature, relative humidity, access control, and so on),such as excessively high temperature of the power supply module.
l Security alarm, which indicates anomalies in security of the T2000 and NE, such as logoutof the NE user.

9.1.4 Alarm SeverityThe alarm severity always indicates the importance, impact and urgency of an alarm. Alarmsare classified into four categories by the severity, that is, critical alarms, major alarms, minoralarms and warning alarms.
Table 9-1 lists details on how to handle alarms at different severity levels.
Table 9-1 Alarm severity
Alarm Severity Definition Handling Principle
Critical alarm The critical severity levelindicates that a serviceaffecting condition hasoccurred and an immediatecorrective action is required.Such a severity can bereported, for example, whena managed object becomestotally out of service and itscapability must be restored.
Handle it immediately.
Major alarm The major severity levelindicates that a serviceaffecting condition hasdeveloped and an urgentcorrective action is required.Such a severity can bereported, for example, whenthere is a severe degradationin the capability of themanaged object and its fullcapability must be restored.
Handle it urgently.
Minor alarm The minor severity levelindicates the existence of anon-service affecting faultcondition and that correctiveaction should be taken inorder to prevent a moreserious (for example, serviceaffecting) fault. Such aseverity can be reported, forexample, when the detectedalarm condition is notcurrently degrading thecapacity of the managedobject.
Find the alarm cause, handleit correctly, and remove thepotential trouble.

Alarm Severity Definition Handling Principle
Warning alarm The warning severity levelindicates the detection of apotential or impendingservice affecting fault, beforeany significant effects havebeen felt. Action should betaken to further diagnose (ifnecessary) and correct theproblem in order to prevent itfrom becoming a moreserious service affectingfault.
Analyze the alarm cause, andremove the potential trouble.
9.1.5 Alarm NotificationInstant awareness of alarms is very important for handling alarms and maintaining the network.The equipment and the T2000 provide different means of notifying alarms to the user.
Alarm Notifying Means of the T2000The T2000 has the following means of notifying alarms.l Alarm color
l Alarm browsing interface
l Alarm box
l Sound box
l Remote alarm notification
Alarm Notifying Means of the EquipmentThe equipment mainly uses the alarm indicators on the cabinet and boards to notify alarms atdifferent severity levels.

Impact on SystemWhen the AM_DOWNSHIFT alarm occurs, the transmission capacity is reduced.
Possible CausesThe possible cause of the AM_DOWNSHIFT alarm is the degradation of the working channels.l The external factors (for example, the climate) cause the degradation of the working
channels.l There are interferences around the working channels.
l The ODU at the transmit end has abnormal transmit power.
l The ODU at the receive end has abnormal receive power.
Handling Procedure
Step 1 Check whether the external factors (for example, the climate) cause the degradation of theworking channels.
If... Then...
Yes The downshift is a normal phenomenon and there is no need to handle it.
No Proceed to next step.
Step 2 Check whether there are interferences around the working channels.

Impact on Systeml When the COMMUN_FAIL alarm occurs, the configuration data on the system control
board cannot be delivered to the board or the board fails to work. As a result, the servicecannot be configured or the equipment-level protection switching fails.
l The COMMUN_FAIL alarm will be suppressed when the HARD_BAD alarm occurs.
Possible CausesIn the case of the COMMUN_FAIL alarm, first check whether one board or multiple boardsreport the COMMUN_FAIL alarm. The possible causes of the COMMUN_FAIL alarm are asfollows:
l Cause 1 for one board reporting the alarm: The board is undergoing cold reset.
l Cause 2 for one board reporting the alarm: The board is faulty.
l Cause 1 for multiple boards reporting the alarm: The EXT interface on the system controlboard is directly connected to a hub or switch.
l Cause 2 for multiple boards reporting the alarm: The CXPR board is off service or is faulty.
l Cause 3 for multiple boards reporting the alarm: The PIU board is improperly inserted orfaulty. As a result, the power supply to the backplane is insufficient.
Handling Procedurel Cause 1 for one board reporting the alarm: The board is undergoing cold reset.
1. On the T2000, Check whether the working status of the board is displayed in blue inthe Running Status basic slots. If yes, the board is undergoing cold reset.
2. Wait for three to five minutes and the working status of the board turns green and isalways on. Then, check whether the COMMUN_FAIL alarm ends.
l Cause 2 for one board reporting the alarm: The board is faulty.1. Replace the board that reports the HARD_ERR alarm. For details, refer to 5 Replacing
Components.
l Cause 1 for multiple boards reporting the alarm: The EXT interface on the system controlboard is directly connected to a hub or switch.1. Check whether the EXT interface on the system control board is directly connected
to a hub or switch. If yes, the VLAN of the equipment may be lost, and thus the EXTinterface on the local NE is interconnected to the ETH ports of other transmissionequipment on the network. As a result, the IP addresses of the boards on differentequipment conflict.
2. Disconnect the EXT interface from the hub or switch, or connect the EXT interfaceindirectly to the hub or switch.
NOTE
l The VLAN of the equipment isolates different NEs on the network to ensure thatcommunication on each NE does not affect each other.
l The main subrack and extended subrack are connected through the EXT interface, whichtransfers the management information and thus cannot be connected to any hub or switch.
l Cause 2 for multiple boards reporting the alarm: The CXPR board is off service or is faulty.1. Check whether the CXPR board reports the BD_STATUS or BUS_ERR alarm.

Impact on System
During the HSB protection switching, services are interrupted. After the HSB protectionswitching is complete, the services become normal.
During the HSM protection switching, no bit errors are generated, and services are not affected.
Possible Causesl The possible causes of the HSB protection switching are as follows:
– 1. The external switching triggered by the switching command that is issued by theNMS software, occurs.
– 2. The automatic switching triggered by equipment failure or a service defect, occurs.
– 3. The reverse switching occurs. When the reserve switching of the HSB protectiongroup is enabled, the HSB protection switching occurs if both the protection and theworking IF boards report the MW_RDI alarm.
l The possible cause of the HSM protection switching is as follows: The working pathdegrades.
Handling Procedure
l Determine the type of the protection switching based on the alarm parameters.
l Cause 1 of HSB switching: External switching occurs. That is, NMS issues a command totrigger the switching.Follow the steps:
1. Select the NE from the Object Tree in the NE Explorer.
2. The IF 1+1 protection group dialog box is displayed. Choose Configuration > IF 1+1 Protection from the Function Tree.
3. Click Query. Query Equipment Switching Status in Protection Group.If Equipment Switching Status in Protection Group is set to Forced switching orManual switching, the NMS issues a command to perform external switching.
4. Identify the cause of the forced switching, and clear the external switchingimmediately.In Slot Mapping Relation, select the working unit or the protection unitof a protection group. Right-click and choose Clear switching from the shortcut menu.Click OK in the displayed dialog box.
l Cause 2 of HSB switching: Automatic switching occurs. That is, the equipment is faulty,or the service is defective.Follow the steps:
1. Check whether any of the following faults or alarms occur. If any of the followingfaults or alarms occur, rectify the faults or clear the alarms.
– The IF board hardware is faulty, or the ODU hardware is faulty, focus on the alarmssuch as HARD_BAD and TEMP_ALARM.
– POWER_ALM, VOLT_LOS (IF board)
– RADIO_TSL_HIGH, RADIO_TSL_LOW or RADIO_RSL_HIGH
– IF_INPWR_ABN or CONFIG_NOSUPPORT
– R_LOC or MW_LOF

NOTE
l If the switching is non-revertive, the services are not automatically switched to the workingpath when the working path is restored to normal, and the RPS_INDI alarm persists. In thiscase, you need to manually switch the services from the protection path to the workingpath. The RPS_INDI alarm is cleared only when the switching is successful.
l If the switching is revertive, the services are automatically switched to the working pathonly when the specified wait-to-restore (WTR) time expires after the working path isrestored to normal. The RPS_INDI alarm is cleared only when the switching is successful.
l Cause 3 of HSB switching: Reverse switching occurs. If the reverse switching function ofthe HSB protection group is enabled, the switching is triggered when the MW_RDI alarmis reported by the working and protection IF boards.For the handling procedure, see MW_RDI.
l Switching cause of the HSM: The working path degrades. This symptom is normal withoutany impact on services. Hence, no measure is required to handle the symptom.

10.1 Basic Concepts Related to Performance EventsYou can use the performance management function to find out the potential risks of the networkrunning and thus to minimize the network failure risks. Understand the basic concepts beforeperforming any operation to monitor the performance.
10.1.1 Performance Reporting FlowThe performance reporting flow indicates the entire process from the detection of performanceevents on the board to notification on the T2000. The performance reporting consists of theperformance monitoring enabling, performance automatic reporting, and over-thresholdperformance event notification.
10.1.2 Performance Event CategoryWhen the optical transport network is running normally, internal and external factors, such asnoise sources, dispersion, and fiber break, may affect the transmission quality in the forms ofbit error, jitter, drift, and delay. The influence is called transmission impairment. On the T2000,the performance events reflect the transmission impairment.
10.1.3 Performance ThresholdThe user can set the performance threshold to mask the performance events that vary within thenormal range. In this way, the user can focus on the performance events that are severelydegraded.
10.1.1 Performance Reporting FlowThe performance reporting flow indicates the entire process from the detection of performanceevents on the board to notification on the T2000. The performance reporting consists of theperformance monitoring enabling, performance automatic reporting, and over-thresholdperformance event notification.

NOTE
For details on the specific operations at each phase of the performance reporting flow, see the OptiXiManager T2000 Online Help.
Performance Monitoring
The board monitors the performance. By default, the performance monitoring function of a boardis enabled. For example, in the case of the 15-minute performance, the board detects a spareperformance register and clears the data in the register at the beginning of each period, and thencounts the performance events. At the end of a period, the statistics performance data is refreshedand then stored in the register.
NOTE
The data in the performance register supports wrapped storage.

10-3
Automatic ReportingIf the automatic reporting function is enabled, the system control board automatically reportsthe performance events to the T2000 at the end of each monitoring period.
NOTE
The performance data and NE management information are reported in the same DCC channel. In the caseof large-volume performance data, the network communication is affected. Hence, do not modify theconfiguration of the performance monitoring, unless required. By default, you can enable the performancemonitoring in the entire network, but only need to set performance automatic reporting for the ports wherefaults are likely to occur.
Performance Over-Threshold ReportingIf detecting performance over-threshold, the T2000 reports an abnormal event accordingly. Theperformance over-threshold abnormal event is different from the ordinary abnormal event,because the T2000 processes the former exceptionally and supports exclusive settings. In thecase of such an event, the T2000 displays a dialog box, reminding the user of the event.
10.1.2 Performance Event CategoryWhen the optical transport network is running normally, internal and external factors, such asnoise sources, dispersion, and fiber break, may affect the transmission quality in the forms ofbit error, jitter, drift, and delay. The influence is called transmission impairment. On the T2000,the performance events reflect the transmission impairment.
In the case of the OptiX RTN 950, there are SDH performance events and RMON performanceevents.
l SDH performance events, which mainly indicate the state of equipment point justificationcaused by the bit error and jitter.
l RMON performance events, which mainly indicate communication quality at the ports thatcarry data services.
SDH Performance EventThe SDH performance events are classified into the following categories:l Management layer performance event
l E1 performance event
RMON Performance EventThe RMON performance events are classified into the following categories:l Ethernet performance event
l CES performance event
l L2VPN performance event
l QoS performance event
l ATMoPWE3 performance event

10.1.3 Performance ThresholdThe user can set the performance threshold to mask the performance events that vary within thenormal range. In this way, the user can focus on the performance events that are severelydegraded.
Threshold, also called tolerance, indicates the extreme performance value for the transportnetwork to operate normally. The performance threshold is used to determine whether theequipment is working normally. If a performance specification crosses the expected performancethreshold, this indicates a performance degrade trend. In this case, the user should highly regardand handle the performance.
Normally, some margin should be reserved to set the performance threshold, and thus to findout problems beforehand.

SD Space Diversity. Two or more antennas separated by a specific distancetransmit/receive the same signal and selection is then performed betweenthe two signals to ease the impact of fading. Currently, only receive SDis used.
SDH Synchronous Digital Hierarchy. A hierarchical set of digital transportstructures, standardized for the transport of suitably adapted payloadsover physical transmission networks.
SNCP Subnetwork connection protection. A working subnetwork connection isreplaced by a protection subnetwork connection if the workingsubnetwork connection fails, or if its performance falls below a requiredlevel.
STP The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), defined in the IEEE Standard 802.1D,is an OSI layer-2 protocol that ensures a loop free topology for anybridged LAN.
T
T2000 A subnet management system (SNMS). In the telecommunicationmanagement network architecture, the T2000 is located between the NElevel and network level, which can supports all NE level functions andpart of the network level management functions.
Tunnel A secure communication path between two peers, such as two routers.
U
Unicast The process of sending data from a source to a single recipient.
