ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
PWE3 (Pseudo Wire Emulation Edge-to-Edge) provides a transparent transport channel
for various services in PSN (Packet Switching Network). In the channel user services are
isolated from each other and service attributes keep unchanged in the transport.
PWE3 integrates the original access modes and the existing IP backbone network to
reduce CAPEX and OPEX.
3.2.1
TDM service
ZXCTN 6110 supports TDM service via TDM E1 interface and supports Structure-aware
and Structure-agnostic Emulation of TDM service.

Structure-aware Emulation has the following functions:

The equipment is aware of frame structure, framing mode and timeslot
information in TDM circuit.

The equipment processes TDM frame overheads, extracts payloads and
put the timeslots into packet message payloads in a certain sequence, so
each service in the message is fixed.

Its latency is longer than Structure-agnostic Emulation, as TDM service
need to be processed in PE (Provider Edge) node, but Structure-aware
Emulation saves the bandwidth of backbone network.

Structure-agnostic Emulation has the following functions:

The equipment is agnostic about any structure in TDM signal. It treats
TDM signal as constant-rate bit stream and emulates the TDM signal.

Overheads and payloads in TDM signal are transmitted transparently.

Its latency is shorter than Structure-aware Emulation, but it needs larger
bandwidth of backbone network than Structure-aware Emulation.
ZXCTN 6110 supports flexibly configuration of TDM CES. Each E1 interface can be
configured as Structure-aware or Structure-agnostic independently.

3.2.2
ATM service
ZXCTN 6110 supports ATM service via IMA E1 interface. The equipment accesses ATM
service via ATM interface at PE node, extracts ATM cell from IMA, conducts PWE3
encapsulation of ATM cell, maps it to the tunnel for transmission and forwards it to
destination node through external tunnel label. The above process is the transparent
transmission of ATM service.
ZXCTN 6110 encapsulates ATM cell to PW in One-to-One Cell or N-to-one Cell mode.
IMA E1 transfers high-speed ATM cell message via several low-speed E1 physical-layer
interfaces. Several IMA E1 links transferring ATM cell are called an E1 group. Each IMA
board of ZXCTN 6110 has at most 16 IMA E1 interface and supports 1~16 E1 groups.

ZXCTN 6110 can divide VLAN based on port and provide multiple interfaces according to
encapsulated VLAN Tag of the message received by ports. ZXCTN 6110 is connected to
user host via Access interface, to other ZXCTN equipment via Trunk interface, and to
user host or other ZXCTN or Ethernet switch via Hybrid interface. ZXCTN 6110
equipments connected via Trunk interface form VLAN Trunk connection bearing data
stream of several VLANs, so as to implement VLAN interconnection in the whole metro
network.
In 802.1Q VLAN protocol 12-bit VLAN ID will limit VLAN number to 4096. In order to
extend VLAN ID address space and improve security, ZXCTN 6110 extends VLAN on

ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
the basis of IEEE802.1Q, that is, QinQ. QinQ is also called Stacked VLAN or Double
VLAN, which encapsulates VLAN Tag of private network into VLAN Tag of public
network so that the packets go through backbone network (public network) of the carriers
with two layers of VLAN Tag. Because it has two layers of tag, it extends VLAN range of
metro backbone network.
3.3.3
Link aggregation function
ZXCTN 6110 supports link aggregation which binds a group of physical interfaces, thus
the interfaces logically look like a link.
Link aggregation is an approach to increase bandwidth and improve reliability by binding
physical links. It increases remarkably the bandwidth of peer physical links between
different devices. Therefore, it is an important technology to create link transmission
resilience and redundancy. Meanwhile, link aggregation has good protection. When a
fault occurs, some links in a group of aggregation links will switch quickly to normal links,
thus service transport will not be broken.
Link aggregation can be divided into manual aggregation and static aggregation
according to implementation mode. Manual aggregation does not need LACP (Link
Aggregation Control Protocol), but static aggregation does.
Link aggregation can also be divided into two categories: load-sharing and
non-load-sharing. After link aggregation group is set, if load-sharing mode is adopted, the
equipment automatically shares the traffic load among several physical ports of the
group. When a fault occurs to one physical port, its traffic will be shared by other ports.
After the fault is resolved, the traffic will be reallocated so that the ports share the traffic
load. If non-load-sharing mode is adopted, only active link has traffic and standby link is
in the standby status, which is actually a backup mechanism. When active link fails,
standby link will work as active link to shield link failure.
ZXCTN 6110 supports manual load-sharing link aggregation and LACP defined by IEEE
802.3ad. It can bind FE and GE interfaces and support link aggregation across service
boards based on MAC, VLAN and IP load balancing.

3.3.4
STP function
ZXCTN 6110 supports STP complying with IEEE802.1D, RSTP complying with
IEEE802.1w, and MSTP complying with IEEE802.1s.
As it has no authentication mechanism, STP cannot authenticate and limit new switch
and BPDU packets, which will affect network topology. If the network is attacked, it will
not provide good service.
ZXCTN 6110 uses BPDU protection, Root protection and ring protection to stabilize L2
switching network topology.
When STP simple network (e.g., small network composed of several switches) or special
port (e.g., port connected to PC), is not needed, STP can be closed manually to meet the
network and management requirements. ZXCTN 6110 provides the function based on
port and MSTP closing protocols.
3.3.5
DHCP Relay function
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) automatically allocates IP address to the
host using TCP/IP to log in the server. After getting the IP address, the host initiates IP
communication via IP address. It is required in the LTE stage that DHCP dynamically
allocates the address to eNB to enhance network automatization.
ZXCTN 6110 supports DHCP Relay. DHCP Server is usually deployed in user
convergence layer or core layer equipment, thus it is required that DHCP packet of user
host can penetrate different subnets to reach DHCP Server. In order to support the
penetration, ZXCTN 6110 needs to snoop and relay DHCP packet, which is the function
of DHCP Relay.
3.3.6
802.1x NAC authentication
ZXCTN 6110 supports 802.1x NAC authentications. As the network is added with
automatic deployment, it is required in the LTE stage to carry out NAC authentication to
eNB access bearer network port to prevent eNB from illegal access. The commonly
used authentication method is to use 802.1x authentication protocol to control access
port.

3.3.7
Multicast
IGMP proxy/snooping is the L2 multicast restriction mechanism managing and controlling
multicast group. The equipment running IGMP proxy/snooping analyzes the received
IGMP packet to set up the mapping relation between ports and MAC multicast addresses
and forward multicast data according to the relation.
IGMP proxy/snooping uses L2 multicast to forward the information only to the receiver
that needs it. The practice has the following advantages:

Reduce the broadcast messages in L2 network and save network bandwidth.

Enhance the security of multicast information.

Facilitate independent charging of each host.

MPLS
3.5.1
MPLS Overview
Multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) was proposed first to increase the forwarding
speed of router. Currently MPLS is developing towards backbone router and VPN
solution.
ZTE Confidential & Proprietary
33
ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
MPLS combines powerful L3 routing function of IP network and efficient forwarding
mechanism of traditional L2 network and adopts connection-oriented mode in the
forwarding plane, which is similar to existent L2 forwarding mode. This enables MPLS to
easily realize seamless convergence of IP and L2 network, such as ATM and Ethernet.
MPLS can also provide better solutions for Traffic Engineering (TE), Virtual Private
Network (VPN) and Quality of Service (QoS). Therefore, MPLS has become an important
standard for data network scale expansion and operability improvement.
3.5.2
MPLS Network Architecture
The typical MPLS network architecture is as shown in Figure 3-8. The basic element of
MPLS network is Label Switching Router (LSR) ZXCTN 6110 equipment. The network
domain formed by LSR is called MPLS Domain.
The LSR located at the edge of MPLS domain and connecting other networks is called
Label Edge Router (LER); the LSR inside MPLS domain is called Core LSR. Is an LSR
has one or more adjacent nodes that do not run MPLS, this LSR is LER. If all the
adjacent nodes of an LSR run MSLS, this LSR is a core LSR.
ZXCTN 6110 equipment can work as LSR and LER equipment.

MPLS Basic Functions
The MPLS system architecture of ZXCTN 6110 complies with the standard: Multiprotocol
Label Switching Architecture (RFC 3031).
The label stack architecture of ZXCTN 6110 complies with the standard: MPLS Label
Stack Encoding (RFC 3032).
ZXCTN 6110 equipment supports the following MPLS functions:

Per-platform label space management function
Per-platform label management function includes creation and deletion of label
space, and distribution and advertisement of dynamic labels.
Distribution and advertisement of labels support the following label types:


LSP label of RSVP-TE

PW label distributed by LDP

Distribution of network management label

Distribution of VRF label of L3VPN
Domain management of static/dynamic labels
Dynamic and static labels are distributed in unified label space, but they can be
managed in different domains.

Inlet node service and label processing function
In the inlet node of LSP, perform Push operation for data messages by service
binding or layered LSP binding.

Outlet node service and label processing function
In the outlet node of LSP, perform label Pop operation for messages.

Intermediate node label processing function
ZTE Confidential & Proprietary
35
ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
In the intermediate node of LSP, perform label SWAP operation for messages.
3.5.4
LDP
MPLS system has multiple label distribution protocols. LDP (Label Distribution Protocol)
is one of the basic signaling of MPLS, mainly completing establishment and maintenance
of LSP/PW. It is the most commonly used LSP/PW signaling protocol in the current
network. In case of hybrid network of the equipment and traditional IP/MPLS router, the
LSP of LDP is established by interconnection of LDP and IP/MPLS router in the current
network.
LDP specifies various messages and related processing procedure during label
distribution. It is mainly used for LSR to negotiate session parameters and distribute
labels and established label switching path (LSP). LSR connects the incoming label,
next-hop node and outgoing label corresponding to a certain FEC in the local forwarding
table together and thus forms the label switching path that crosses the whole MPLS
domain.
3.5.4.1
LDP LSP Label Advertisement and Management
After LDP session is established, LDP protocol begins to switch information such as label
mapping to establish LSP. RFC5036 defines label advertisement mode, label distribution
control mode and label retention mode to decide how LSR advertise and management
labels.
For ZXCTN 6110, we recommend the following combination: Downstream Unsolicited
(DU) + Independent label control mode + Liberal label retention mode.
3.5.4.2
LDP LSP Label Advertisement Mode
In MPLS system, the downstream LSR distributes the labels to specific FEC and then
notifies the upstream LSR. That is, the label is designated by the downstream LSR and is
distributed in the direction from downstream to upstream.
Label Advertisement Mode can be divided into two types:

36
Downstream Unsolicited
ZTE Confidential & Proprietary
ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
DU (Downstream Unsolicited) means for a specific FEC, LSR performs label distribution
without getting label request message from upstream.

distribution after getting label request message from upstream.
Figure 3-10
Downstream on Demand
When the downstream LSR feed back label mapping message depends on the
label control mode used by this LSR.

When ordered mode is adopted, only when receiving label mapping
message returned from the downstream, or when this LSR is the outlet
node of this FEC, it will sends label mapping message to the upstream.

When Independent mode is adopted, whether receiving label mapping
message returned from the downstream or not, it will send label mapping
message to the upstream immediately.
3.5.4.3
LDP LSP Label Distribution Control Mode
Label Distribution Control Mode refers to the processing mode when LSR distributes
labels during the establishment of LSP.
ZTE Confidential & Proprietary

ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
Label Distribution Control Mode can be divided into two types:

Independent Label Distribution Control
Independent Label Distribution Control means the local LSR can distribute a label to
bind with an FEC freely and notify it to the upstream LSR, without waiting for
downstream label.

Ordered Label Distribution Control
Ordered Label Distribution Control means for the label mapping of an FEC on an
LSR, only when this LSR has the next-hop label mapping message of this FEC, or
when this LSR is the outlet node of this FEC, this LSR can send label mapping of
this FEC to the upstream.
3.5.4.4
LDP LSP Label Retention Mode
Label Retention Mode refers to the processing mode for label mapping received by LSR
that will not be used for the time being.
Label Retention Mode can be divided into two types:

Liberal Label Retention Mode
Liberal Label Retention Mode means the LSR will retain the label mapping received
from the adjacent LSR no matter whether this adjacent LSR is its next-hop.
Figure 3-11

Liberal Label Retention Mode
Conservative Label Retention Mode

ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
Conservative Label Retention Mode means the LSR will retain the label mapping
received from the adjacent LSR only when this adjacent LSR is its next-hop.

3.5.4.5
Conservative Label Retention Mode
LDP LSP Establishment
The procedure of establishing LSP on ZXCTN 6110 equipment is to bind FEC and label
and notify this binding to the adjacent LSR on LSP. This procedure is realized by LDP.
Below is a description of the major procedure for Downstream Unsolicited Advertisement
Mode and Ordered Label Distribution Control Mode:

When the network route changes, if an edge node finds a new destination address
in its route table, and this address does not belong to any existing FEC, this edge
node needs to establish a new FEC for this destination address.

If the outlet node of MPLS network has labels to be distributed, it distributes a label
to the FEC and sends label mapping message to the upstream initiatively. The label
mapping message includes the label distributed and the bound FEC.

The LSR receiving label mapping message adds a corresponding item in its label
forwarding table and sends label mapping message of the specified FEC to the
upstream LSR initiatively.

When the LSR in the inlet node receives label mapping message, it also needs to
add a corresponding item in its label forwarding table. At this time, LSP
establishment is completed. Next the data packet corresponding to this FEC can be
forwarded.

LDP MD-5 Certification
To increase the safety of LDP protocol, some safety measures should be taken for it.
One of the measures is MD-5 certification.
MD-5 certification is encryption certification. A key and a key ID are configured on each
piece of equipment. LDP transmits messages using TCP protocol which calculates the
digest by MD-5 algorithm and adds the digest to the end of the message. TCP protocol at
the receiving end also calculates digest by MD-5 algorithm and them compares it with the
digest calculated at the transmit end. If the two are consistent, LDP passes the
certification, otherwise, it fails.
The control plane configures TCP MD-5 configuration options separately for each LDP
peer. The options include:

Whether support TCP MD-5 encryption;

If TCP MD-5 encryption is supported, configure encryption password.

Support separate password configuration by each neighbor.
LDP TCP MD-5 encryption design of ZXCTN 6110 should comply with the requirements
of RFC 3036.
3.5.4.7
LDP GR Function
For the label data forwarding problems caused by restart of LSR control plane, especially
those caused by restart of LDP control plane, ZXCTN 6110 solves them by LDP Graceful
Restart mechanism.

Configuration mechanism: The user can enable and disable LDP GR (disabled by
default) and relevant timer.

LSR can remain forwarding state upon session restart, node restart or LDP
signaling restart.

40
Other non-LDP faults such as board reset and interface down will not trigger GR.

3.5.5
RSVP-TE
Resource ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP) is designed for integrated service model, used
for resource reservation on the nodes of an LSP. RSVP works on the transport layer but
does not participate in application data transport. It is a network control protocol, similar
to ICMP.
Simply speaking, RSVP has the following major features: receiver-oriented; the receiver
originates the request for resource reservation and maintains resource reservation state;
“soft state” mechanism is used to maintain resource reservation information.
The extended contents of RSVP-TE from RSVP include:

Introduce Label Request object in the PATH message of RSVP to support
originating label request; introduce Label object in RSVP Resv message to support
label distribution. In this way, CR-LSP can be established.

The extended message can not only carry label binding information but also
limitation information, so as to support the constrained routing function of CR-LSP.

Besides, RSVP-TE supports related attributes of MPLS-TE by extending object to
enable it to have resource reservation function.
RSVP of ZXCTN 6110, after extension, can support distribution of MPLS labels and carry
resource reservation information while transporting label binding information. The
extended RSVP is called RSVP-TE, used to establish LSP tunnel as a signaling protocol.
It can implement:

Establishment and maintenance of TE LSP

Removal of TE LSP

Error notification

For basic functions of RSVP-TE, the following functions defined in relevant
standard should be supported:


Explicit Path Function
RSVP –TE message supports designation function of LSP node and can establish
explicit path. By explicit path technology, it can specify the paths that must be passed
and those that are not passed to arrive at a destination. The LSP paths planned can be
calculated dynamically by taking explicit path as a constraint.
For explicit path function, ZXCTN 6110 supports the following modes:

Strict explicit path: the next hop and the previous hop are connected directly.

Loose explicit path: loose mode can specify which node the path must pass, but
there can be other nodes between this node and the previous hop.

3.5.5.2
Combination of strict mode and loose mode
RSVP MD5 Certification Function
The interface with RSVP-TE enabled supports multiple message digest algorithms. The
major ones are hmac-md5 and hmac sha-1, which can be selected by the administrator.
The default one is md5. The certification is only directed for the interface and not for the
neighbour. Each interface supports one key.

Constrained Path Calculation Function
IGP extension (OSPF-TE/ISIS-TE) can collect interface bandwidth resource information
of the whole network, form TE link database, calculate CSPF by constrained path and
calculate LSP path information required by the customer so as to drive RSVP-TE to
establish corresponding LSP.
ZXCTN 6110 supports the following constrained path calculation functions:

Support constraint: ordinary bandwidth, prioritized bandwidth, classified bandwidth,
explicit path, destination address
3.5.5.4


Interface TE Bandwidth Management Function
The interface bandwidth resource can be partly or fully distributed to TE for LSP
establishment. This information need be managed and spread in the network via
OSPF-TE/ISIS-TE.
ZXCTN 6110 supports the following functions:

For interface type, only ordinary physical interface supports this function. Interface
TE bandwidth management is not required for VLAN sub-interface and bound
interface.


Cross-Domain RSVP-TE
In the application of ZXCTN 6110, in some case, cross-domain (AS) service dispatching
may be needed. For example, if the service of NodeB needs to be transported to the
remote RNC via the core layer router network, and if the core layer network also supports
cross-domain RSVP-TE, RSVP-TE can be used to establish cross-domain (AS) E2E
LSP.
Figure 3-13
Cross-domain RSVP-TE
When the service of NB1 needs to be dispatched to the remote RNC2, E2E RSVP-TE
LSP need be established, the path is PE1->PE3->SR1->SR2->PE4.
RSVP-TE can specify cross-domain edge node and define loose ER-Hop, and calculate
path using CSPF in the domain, and establish an E2E cross-domain LSP in this way and
thereby provide PW service between PE1 and PE4.

RSVP-TE GR
Restart of RSVP-TE control plane will cause LSR restart and data flow interruption of its
neighbour. RSVP-TE Graceful Restart mechanism can be used to reduce the impact of
RSVP-TE control plane restart.
ZXCTN 6110 supports the following functions:

Configuration mechanism: The user can enable and disable RSVP-TE GR and
relevant timer.

LSR can remain forwarding state when RSVP-TE control plane is restarted.


also be triggered. Other non-LDP faults such as board reset and interface down will
not trigger GR.

The head node, intermediate node and end node of the link established by
RSVP-TE all support RSVP-TE GR.

In case of co-networking of GR and FRR, make clear of the operation sequence
when restarting nodes and auxiliary nodes to avoid irrecoverable faults.

MPLS L2 VPN
MPLS L2 VPN is divided to VPLS and VPWS. VPWS is applicable to point-to-point
networking mode; VPLS can realize point-to-multipoint and multipoint-to-multipoint
networking mode. From the angle of the user, the whole MPLS network is a L2 switching
network through which L2 connection can be established between different sites. ZXCTN
6110 equipment supports complete VPWS and VPLS functions.

QoS feature
3.7.1
QoS function
ZXCTN 6110 provides standard-based support for DiffServ, including traffic classification,
policing, shaping, congestion control, queue scheduling, etc. Network carrier sets
different QoS for access services to provide DiffServ.
The equipment supports 8 PHBs (Per-hop Behavior) defined in the standards, e.g., BE,
AF1, AF2, AF3, AF4, EF, CS6 and CS7, to enable network carrier to provide DiffServ for
users and bear data, voice and video services at the same time.
If QoS or traffic classification is not needed or there is no matched rule for the message
in traffic classification, the message will be processed in the BE (Best-Effort) way.

Traffic classification
ZXCTN 6110 supports the classification based on port, L2, L3 and L4 packet head,
e.g., physical interface, source address, destination address, MAC address, IP or
applications port No.

Policing
ZXCTN 6110 supports traffic policing and CAR (Committed Access Rate), uses
ACL to control service access, and implement traffic-based CIR, CBS, EIR and EBS.
Certain message can be discarded or colored under some conditions. It also
supports ingress and egress policing.

Congestion avoidance and control
Congestion control can discard few packets in network congestion:
ZXCTN 6110 congestion avoidance and control:

Support WRED (Weighted Random Early Detection) and queue
congestion control

ZTE Confidential & Proprietary
Support TD (Tail Drop) cache policing.
49
ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description

Queue scheduling
ZXCTN 6000 employs mixed queue scheduling which has the following functions:


Each port supports at least 8 priority queues.

Each queue supports the minimum/maximum bandwidth management.

Support WRR (Weighted Round Robin) scheduling.

Support SP (Strict Priority) scheduling.

Support SP+WRR mixed scheduling
Shaping
Traffic shaping limits the traffic and burst of a connection out of a network so that
the messages are transmitted at a much even rate.
ZXCTN 6110 supports priority-queue-based and port-based traffic shaping.
3.7.2
MPLS QoS feature
ZXCTN 6110 supports the MPLS QoS based on DiffServ model. MPLS QoS fulfills
priority mapping among MPLS, IP and Ethernet messages and differentiates data flows
of different services according to EXP value in the label to provide DiffServ and assure
QoS of voice, video, etc. ZXCTN 6110 supports two types of carrier MPLS QoS tunnels:

Uniform Tunnel

Pipe Tunnel
MPLS QoS based on DiffServ model supports good scalability and implements ETE QoS
via tunnel. The congestion certainly leads to delay and packet loss, which will affect QoS
of some services sensitive to delay and packet loss. MPLS-TE efficiently manages
bandwidth resources to improve network QoS, so as to prevent out-tunnel congestion
from affecting in-tunnel service. But the bandwidth management and MPLS-TE tunnel
can implement the scheduling based on CoS. For example, when EF, AF and BE
services are in one MPLS-TE tunnel, EF and AF services will be affected seriously.
50
ZTE Confidential & Proprietary
ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
ZXCTN 6110 combines MPLS-TE and DiffServ to enable IP/MPLS core network to
identify different services and create tunnels accordingly, so as to assure the bandwidth
of high-priority service. ZXCTN 6110 supports the QoS scheduling in MPLS VPN and the
Diff-Serv scheduling in VPN, so as to forward VPN key services in priority.
ZXCTN 6110 maps user service to PW and PW to the corresponding MPLS tunnel to
implement service-based ETE QoS. It supports simple and easy deployment and
bandwidth planning & management to offer differentiated multiservice management and
operation.
3.7.3
Ethernet QoS feature
As metro network provides Ethernet-based service, DiffServ is needed. ZXCTN 6110
dispatches service and controls congestion according to VLAN frame priority. It can map
IP message priority or MPLS message EXP priority to Ethernet message VLAN priority
for unified service scheduling.
3.8
OAM Features
ZXCTN 6110 provides multiple OAM mechanisms. It supports MPLS/MPLS-TP, Ethernet
OAM, Ethernet link OAM, BFD. It can implement fast failure detection to trigger
protection switching and guarantee carrier-class service quality of service in packet
transport network.
3.8.1
MPLS OAM
3.8.1.1
Tunnel OAM
MPLS Tunnel OAM provides MPLS network with complete failure detection and
positioning mechanism and network performance monitoring at Tunnel layer.
MPLS Tunnel OAM mechanism can effectively detect, confirm and position the defects
and network performance monitoring within MPLS layer. The equipment can use OAM
detection status to trigger protection switching and realize fast failure detection and
service protection.
ZTE Confidential & Proprietary
51
ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
PTN series equipment supports MPLS Tunnel OAM functions such as Ping and
Traceroute etc.

LSP BFD
LSP Ping expands the checkout of data layer. While BFD defines a light-load
checkout measure of data layer (the fixed frame length of BFD suits implementation
by hardware).
BFD for LSP carries BFD packets on the detected LSP tunnel. The gone-through
BFD packets data must be exactly the same with that for LSP path. When it goes
out at the LSP egress, submit BFD packets to the upper layer module for checkout.
When we use BFD to detect LSP, if LSP adopts FRR to implement protection, BFD
detection period should be set larger than FRR protection speed. When FRR
protects LSP, it may cause BFD packet jitter or even loss, and now that FRR
completes LSP protection, so it’s not necessary for the upper layer to detect LSP
failure. Otherwise it may leads to frequent switching between upper and lower
layers.
If BFD for LSP is not used with LSP Ping, parameters in BFD setup process should
be manually specified.
3.8.1.2
PW OAM
PW OAM provides complete failure detection, positioning mechanism and network
performance monitoring at PW layer.
PW OAM mechanism can effectively detect, confirm and position the defects and
network performance monitoring within PW layer network. The equipment can use OAM
detecting status to trigger protection switching and implement fast failure detecting and
service protection.
PTN series equipment supports PW OAM functions such as Ping, and Traceroute.


PW BFD
ZTE Confidential & Proprietary
ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
The specific requirements and processing process of BFD for PW is similar to BFD
for LSP. The major difference lies in the fact that BFD is encapsulated under PW.

LSP failure message is delivered to ingress router, the traffic will be switched to
Hot-standby path LSP. When main tunnel LSP recovers, the traffic will be switched back.
The protection process is shown in Figure 3-18:

MPLS Tunnel 1:1 protection
Owing to permanent Merge dual-receiving at destination end for path protection based
on single directional MPLS tunnel, it’s unnecessary to implement APS protocol switching.
Sending from which port is determined at source end based on the failure status of work
path and protection path.

FRR Protection
FRR (Fast Reroute) is a protection implemented by reserving extra resource. Its feature
is fast local protection. It’s usually deployed in network with high reliability requirement.
When there’s local failure in network, FRR can quickly switch the traffic to Bypass Tunnel
with little impact on data service.

Basic concept of FRR

Bypass: Facility Backup. Using one protection path to protect multiple
LSP. The protection path is called Bypass LSP.

PLR: Point of Local Repair. Head node of Bypass LSP. It must be on the
main LSP path, not the tail node.

MP: Merge Point. Tail node of Bypass LSP. It must be on the main LSP
path, not the head node.

Link protection: there’s a link directly connecting PLR and MP. Main LSP
goes through this link. When the link fails, traffic can be switched to
Bypass LSP.

Node protection: PLR and MP are connected by a node. When main
Tunnel goes through this node, traffic can be switched to Bypass LSP.
FRR protection conforms to RFC 4090 protocol.

FRR protection mode
FRR is a kind of protection for local. It protects the link or node connected to PLR
between PLR and MP. The basic principle of FRR is to use a pre-setup Tunnel to
protect one or multiple Tunnel. The equipment supports Bypass mode.
Bypass Tunnel is a Tunnel without FRR attribute. When the tunnel is designated to
protect other Tunnels go through a physical interface, the Tunnel becomes Bypass
Tunnel. Bypass Tunnel setup is triggered by manual configuration on PLR. That is
to say, Tunnel cannot be embedded and protected by FRR.

Figure 3-19
FRR protection
Bypass is shown in the above figure. The blue one is main LSP and the red one is
Bypass Tunnel. FRR protects link and node connecting to PLR. When the link or
node fails, data on main Tunnel will be switched to Bypass Tunnel. After the
switching, the original LSP path information will be deleted.

FRR protection parameters

ZXCTN 6110 supports FRR at the following interface types: 100M
Ethernet interface, GE interface, 10GE interface and CPOS interface.

Supporting node protection and link protection

Providing protocol layer and physical layer failure detection

Performance indexes: when the protected LSP fails, user traffic is
switched to backup tunnel within 50ms.

Head node can configure multiple optional paths for protection LSP and
permit re-optimization of LSP. The principle of path optimization is less
hops, more available resource, and smaller metric.

Supporting two types of backup bandwidth: finite backup bandwidth, and
infinite backup bandwidth. With finite backup bandwidth, backup tunnel
provides bandwidth protection and the sum of required bandwidth for all
protected LSP using this backup tunnel should not exceed backup
bandwidth. While with infinite backup bandwidth, backup tunnel doesn’t
provide bandwidth guarantee.

MPLS-TP Network-Level Protection
3.9.3.1
MPLS-TP Tunnel/PW 1+1 and 1:1 Protection
In Tunnel 1+1 protection, services are transmitted simultaneously in both working and
protection channels and received selectively. When a fault occurs to working channel,
the receiving end selectively receives the services from protection channel for service
switching.
Figure 3-20
Unidirectional 1+1 protection switching
In 1+1 architecture, the protection tunnel is private for each working tunnel. The working
tunnel bridges the protection tunnel at the source end of the protection domain. 1+1
tunnel protection is a kind of unidirectional switchover, which means only the links under
affection switches over to the protection tunnel. To avoid single-point fault, the working
tunnel and protection tunnel should use independent route.
62
ZTE Confidential & Proprietary
ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description

Unidirectional 1+1 Tunnel Protection Switching (Working Link Fault)
Tunnel 1:1 protection reserves unidirectional service sending and receiving. Extension
APS protocol is transferred via the protection tunnel, sending mutual protocol status and
switchover status. Devices of both sides implement service switchover as per protocol
and switchover status.
Figure 3-22
Bidirectional 1: 1 Tunnel Protection Switching Architecture)
In 1:1 architecture, the protection tunnel is private for each working tunnel. The
switchover of 1:1 path protection is bidirectional switchover. In other woods, the affected
connections and unaffected connections are switched over to the protection tunnel. To
avoid single-point, the working tunnel and the protection tunnel should follow
independent routes.

When ZXCTN 6110 configures PW 1+1/1:1 protection, it supports services with the sink
source but different sinks. According to customer service failure signal, it implements
protection switchover.
When ZXCTN 6110 configures 1:1 protection, it usually allows the protection tunnel to
bear services.
3.9.3.2
Ring Protection
Ring protection saves fiber and network resource, and fulfills protection switching within
50ms in compliance with strict requirements for protection time of transport network.
ZXCTN 6110 supports Wrapping and Steering ring protection

Wrapping Protection
When network node is found failed, the neighbor node of the fault will send
switchover request to the neighbor node via APS protocol. When one node inspects
fault or switchover request, common services sent to the invalid node will be
switched over to another direction (far from the invalid node). When the network
recovers or APS protocol request disappears, services will go back to the original
path. The protection principle is as shown in Figure 3-24.

Steering Protection
When network node detects network failure, it will send switchover request to all
nodes on the ring via APS protocol. All source nodes in end-to-end connection will
implements the switchover. All MPLS-TP that are influenced by invalid network will
be switched over from the working direction to the protection direction. When the
network recovers or APS protocol request disappears, all affected services will go
back to their original paths. The protection principle is as shown in Figure 3-25

Dual-Homing Protection
Dual homing is such a network topology in which base station services go through the
bearer network and then terminate at two service access point equipments, both of which
connect the RNC. Based on this network topology, dual homing protection is
implemented by employing some related technique to provide protection for the service
access point equipments and access links. And in this protection when failures occur in
the main access point equipment or access link, service frames can be transported to the
RNC through the redundant access point device or access link.
66
ZTE Confidential & Proprietary
ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
Figure 3-26
Dual-Homing Protection
As shown above, bearer networks connect to the main and redundant GE/STM-1
interfaces of the RNC through two access devices, of which one is working (device B
here) and the other is redundant (device C here). In normal state, the working path is
shown as red real line by NodeB-A-B-RNC. When a failure occurs at device B or on the
access link between device B and the RNC, related OAM frames will sent to device A ,
dual homing protection works and switchover happens at device A. Meanwhile the RNC
detects the failure and switches to device C for transmitting and receiving service frames.
The working path now is shown as the red dashed line.
3.9.3.4
DNI (Dual Node Interconnection) Protection
In the case bearer networks employ ring protection mechanisms, two architectures can
be deployed when two rings interwork with each other, one of which is single node
interconnection and the other one is dual-node interconnection. There is only one
interworking node in the single node interconnection case, so this architecture is fragile
and the interconnection services will interrupt when the interworking node fails. Therefore
dual-node interconnection (DNI) is more deployed to enhance the reliability of the
interconnection services, and in this architecture two rings interwork through dual nodes,
one working and the other redundant, ensuring that the interconnection services between
the two rings be transported through the redundant interconnection node in case the
working one fails.

Other Protection Manners
3.9.4.1
Ethernet LAG Protection
Link Aggregation binds a group of same-rate physical Ethernet interfaces as a logic
interface (link aggregation group) to increase the bandwidth and provide link protection.
ZXCTN 6110 supports LAG protection of UNI-side Ethernet port
Ethernet LAG protection will or will not share port load. In load sharing mode, the device
will share services to multiple physical ports of the aggregation group automatically.
When one physical port goes wrong, services on the port will go to other physical ports
automatically. When the failure recovers, traffic will be redistributed to make sure the
load shared by all aggregated ports. In non-load sharing manner, services only exist in
the active link in the aggregation group. Actually it is a backup mechanism. As when the
active link fails in the aggregation, the system will activate the standby link to shield the
invalid link.

Ethernet Spanning Tree Protection
STP (Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol) can eliminate network loop. STP blocks some
redundant paths with certain algorithms and tailors loop network into no-loop tree
network to prevent messages from growing and unlimitedly recycling in loop network, so
as to avoid broadcast storm. What is MSTP different from STP and RSTP is that MSTP
can carry out the forwarding according to VLAN message and balance VLAN load.
3.9.4.3
IMA Protection
IMA (Inverse Multiplexing for ATM) distributes ATM cell flow to several low-rate links and
combines the links at remote end to recover the cell flow in the original order, so as to
multiplex several low-rate links flexibly and easily. IMA is often employed to transmit ATM
cell on E1 interfaces and a transparent channel is provided for ATM layers which ignores
service types and other high-level information. The mechanism if shown as follows:
Figure 3-28
3.9.4.4
IMA Transmission
ML-PPP Protection
Multilink PPP bids multiple PPP channels to one logical interface, which accordingly
increases bandwidth, reduces latency, shares load and enables backup. ML-PPP follows
RFC1990 (The PPP Multilink Protocol (MP) strictly. Focusing on the interconnection
between E1, STM-1 boards to mobile devices, ML-PPP enables network-side services to
be transferred in multiple bound PPP channels, which realizes load sharing and
protection over the port of the board at the network side.
E1 ML-PPP protection is as shown in Figure 3-29:

ML-PPP Protection Principle
After arriving at the service processing module via switching module, service signals will
be transferred through multiple bound links. This mechanism on one hand realizes load
sharing and protection over the port of network-side board, on the other hand eliminates
active/standby links.
Inspection method:

Physical layer inspection, it inspects signal loss LOS, port link status. The
inspection is based upon ns.

Link layer inspection. By using ML-PPP protocol message, it inspects link layer
status. The inspection is based upon millisecond.

Synchronization Ethernet clock
ZXCTN 6110 supports synchronization Ethernet clock at physical layer in compliance
with G.8261.
Synchronization Ethernet extracts clock from physical-layer serial bit stream to obtain
SDH-like clock precision for network clock synchronization rather than precise time
synchronization.
Synchronization Ethernet clock precision is related to physical layer,
but unrelated to Ethernet link-layer load and packet forwarding delay.
3.10.3
IEEE 1588 v2 clock
ZXCTN 6110 supports IEEE 1588 v2 protocol for clock and time synchronization.
IEEE 1588v2 is a precise time synchronization protocol (PTP protocol for short). It is a
master/slave synchronization system. In system synchronization, master clock

71
ZXCTN 6110 V2.0 Product Description
periodically releases PTP protocol and time information and slave clock port receives the
time stamp information from master clock port. Accordingly the system calculates
master/slave line time delay and master/slave time difference and adjusts local time
according to the difference so that slave equipment time is consistent with master
equipment time in the frequency and phase.
3.10.4
Time synchronization Ethernet function
Most vendors in the industry use IEEE 1588v2 for time synchronization. With deep
research into clock and data networks, ZTE experts think that after going through
complex data network, 1588 message has uncontrolled jitter and asymmetry, which
causes some difficulties in restoring clock and time precision. Combining several packet
synchronization technologies, ZTE proposes unique “time synchronization Ethernet”
solution, that is, carry out 1588V2 time synchronization over synchronization Ethernet
and insertion & extraction of 1588 protocol precise time stamp over hardware so as to
improve time synchronization precision.

In the packet transmission network applications, due to lack of time source, there is much
inconvenience in field tests and project deploying. Meanwhile, difficult to synchronizing to
GPS, frequency synchronization equipments, such as Rubidium clock or BITS, are
needed to achieve external clock signal reference. In some scenarios, these limits make
the deployment of packet transmission equipments difficult. To facilitate the project
deploying and field tests, clock/time source is needed to integrate on the transmission
equipment.

network. And it can control unnecessary broadcast to increase network throughput.
IP VPN based on IP/MPLS MPLS-TP can isolate services very well with good QoS,
scalability and manageability.
3.11.2.2
Against Ethernet VLAN/MAC spoofing and attack
ZXCTN 6110 filters illegal messages with “VLAN+MAC” to improve network security. The
administrator adds static table item to MAC address table and binds a specific MAC
address to an interface to prevent the attack based on MAC address spoofing.
ZXCTN 6110 can filter illegal MAC. When the maintenance staff is aware of the
possibility of the attack by the message of a MAC address, the MAC will be configured
manually to illegal MAC. When the equipment receives a message, it will compare the
source or destination MAC address of the message with the items in the MAC address. If
the MAC is illegal MAC in the table, the message will be discarded and the source will not
be notified.
In addition, ZXCTN 6110 applies ACL to port. By analyzing such information as VLAN, IP
address, port number and protocol number, it can automatically filter illegal messages to
prevent network attack.

Working principle of hardware system
ZXCTN 6110 adopts the centralized switching structure. For ordinary service flow, after
processed by physical-layer chip, packets are directly sent to the switching chip of SCCU
and then to the corresponding board ports via the switching network. For some special
service messages, e.g., 1588 PTP message or OAM message, before sent to the
switching network, packets are pre-processed by the boards and then sent to the
switching chip of SCCU for termination or forwarding.
ZXCTN 6110 hardware system consists of boards and SMC. Board function involves UNI
unit, Ethernet service processing module (Ethernet board), protocol processing module
(E1 board) and service processing module (E1 board). SMC function involves packet
switching unit, Ethernet OAM unit, Ethernet processing unit, clock unit, CPU unit, power
