Configuring Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing Controllers on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router

This module describes the configuration of dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) controllers on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers.

DWDM is an optical technology that is used to increase bandwidth over existing fiber-optic backbones. DWDM can be configured on supported 10-Gigabit Ethernet (GE) line cards. After you configure the DWDM controller, you can configure an associated 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface.

Prerequisites for Configuring DWDM Controller Interfaces

You must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. The command reference guides include the task IDs required for each command. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Before configuring a DWDM controller, be sure that you have installed one of the following cards that support DWDM:

•Cisco 8-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Line Card

•Cisco 2-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet + 20-port Gigabit Ethernet Combination Line Card

Information About the DWDM Controllers

DWDM support in Cisco IOS XR software is based on the Optical Transport Network (OTN) protocol that is specified in ITU-T G.709. This standard combines the benefits of SONET/SDH technology with the multiwavelength networks of DWDM. It also provides for forward error correction (FEC) that can allow a reduction in network costs by reducing the number of regenerators used.

To enable multiservice transport, OTN uses the concept of a wrapped overhead (OH). To illustrate this structure:

•Optical channel payload unit (OPU) OH information is added to the information payload to form the OPU. The OPU OH includes information to support the adaptation of client signals.

•Optical channel data unit (ODU) OH is added to the OPU to create the ODU. The ODU OH includes information for maintenance and operational functions to support optical channels.

•Optical channel transport unit (OTU) OH together with the FEC is added to form the OTU. The OTU OH includes information for operational functions to support the transport by way of one or more optical channel connections.

•Optical channel (OCh) OH is added to form the OCh. The OCh provides the OTN management functionality and contains four subparts: the OPU, ODU, OTU, and frame alignment signal (FAS). See Figure 33.

Figure 33 OTN Optical Channel Structure

Information about IPoDWDM

Cisco IOS XR software includes the IP over Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (IPoDWDM) feature.

IPoDWDM is supported on the following hardware devices:

•Cisco 8-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Line Card

•Cisco 2-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet + 20-port Gigabit Ethernet Combination Line Card

IPoDWDM currently provides the following software features:

•Proactive Maintenance

Proactive Maintenance

Proactive maintenance automatically triggers Forward Error Correction-Fast Re-Route (FEC-FRR). Proactive maintenance requires coordinated maintenance between Layer 0 (L0) and Layer 3 (L3).
L0 is the DWDM optical layer. FEC-FRR is an L3 protection mechanism. FEC-FRR detects failures before they happen and corrects errors introduced during transmission or that are due to a degrading signal.

System administrators can configure the following IPoDWDM features:

•Optical Layer DWDM port, see Configuring the Optical Layer DWDM Ports.

•Administrative state of DWDM optical ports, see Configuring the Administrative State of DWDM Optical Ports.

•FEC-FRR trigger threshold, window size, revert threshold, and revert window size, see Configuring Proactive FEC-FRR Triggering.

FEC-FRR Triggering

FEC-FRR can be configure to be triggered by the following alarms:

•ais - Alarm Indication Signal (AIS)

•bdi - Backward Defect Indication (BDI)

•*bdiO - Backward Defect Indication - Overhead (BDI-O)

•*bdiP - Backward Defect Indication - Payload (BDI-P)

•*deg - Degraded (DEG)

•lck - Locked (LCK)

•lof - Loss of Frame (LOF)

•lom - Loss of Multi Frame

•los - Loss of Signal (LOS)

•*losO - Loss of Signal - Overhead (LOS-O)

•*losP - Loss of Signal - Payload (LOS-P)

•oci - Open Connection Indication (OCI)

•plm - Payload Mismatch (PLM)

•*ssf - Server Signal Failure (SSF)

•*ssfO - Server Signal Failure - Overhead (SSF-O)

•*ssfP - Server Signal Failure - Payload (SSF-P)

•tim - Trace Identifier Mismatch (TIM)

Signal Logging

DWDM statistic data, such as EC, UC and alarms, are collected and stored in the log file on the DWDM line card.

How to Configure DWDM Controllers

The DWDM controllers are configured in the physical layer control element of the Cisco IOS XR software configuration space. This configuration is done using the controller dwdm command, and is described in the following task:

•Configuring G.709 Parameters

Note All interface configuration tasks for Gigabit Ethernet interfaces still must be performed in interface configuration mode.

Configuring G.709 Parameters

This task describes how to customize the alarm display and the thresholds for alerts and forward error correction (FEC). You need to use this task only if the default values are not correct for your installation.

Prerequisites

The loopback, and g709 fec commands can be used only when the controller is in the shutdown state. Use the admin-state command.

DETAILED STEPS
Command or Action

Purpose

Step 1

configure
Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router# configure

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 2

controller dwdm interface-path-id
Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router(config)# controller dwdm 0/1/0/0

Specifies the DWDM controller name in the notation rack/slot/module/port and enters DWDM configuration mode.

Step 3

admin-state maintenance
or

admin-state out-of-service
Example:

Disables the DWDM controller. You must disable the controller before you can use the DWDM configuration commands.

Step 4

commit
Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router(config-dwdm)# commit

Saves configuration changes. This performs the shutdown from the previous step. When the controller has been shut down, you can proceed with the configuration.

Step 5

loopback {internal | line}
Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router(config-dwdm)# loopback internal

(Optional) Configures the DWDM controller for loopback mode.

Step 6

g709 fec {disable | standard}
Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router(config-dwdm)# g709 fec disable

(Optional) Configures the forward error correction mode (FEC) for the DWDM controller. By default, enhanced FEC is enabled.

Step 7

g709 {odu | otu} report alarm disable
Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router(config-dwdm)# g709 odu bdi disable

(Optional) Disables the logging of selected optical channel data unit (ODU) alarms or optical channel transport unit (OTU) alarms to the console for a DWDM controller. By default, all alarms are logged to the console.

Step 8

g709 otu overhead tti {expected | sent} {ascii | hex} tti-string
Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router(config-dwdm)# g709 otu overhead tti expected ascii test OTU 5678

Configures a transmit or expected Trail Trace Identifier (TTI) that is displayed in the show controller dwdm command.
Step 9

end
or

commit
Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router(config-dwdm)# end
or

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router(config-dwdm)# commit
Saves configuration changes.

•When you issue the end command, the system prompts you to commit changes:
Uncommitted changes found, commit them before 
exiting(yes/no/cancel)? [cancel]:
–Entering yes saves configuration changes to the running configuration file, exits the configuration session, and returns the router to EXEC mode.

–Entering no exits the configuration session and returns the router to EXEC mode without committing the configuration changes.

–Entering cancel leaves the router in the current configuration session without exiting or committing the configuration changes.

•Use the commit command to save the configuration changes to the running configuration file and remain within the configuration session.
Step 10

admin-state in-service
Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router(config-dwdm)# admin-state in-service

Places the DWDM port in In Service (IS) state, to support all normal operation.

Step 11

show controllers dwdm interface-path-id g709
Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Router# show controller dwdm 0/1/0/0 optics

Displays the G.709 Optical Transport Network (OTN) protocol alarms and counters for Bit Errors, along with the FEC statistics and threshold-based alerts.
What to Do Next

All interface configuration tasks for the Gigabit Ethernet interfaces still must be performed in interface configuration mode. Refer to the corresponding modules in this book for more information.

How to Perform Performance Monitoring on DWDM Controllers

Performance monitoring parameters are used to gather, store, set thresholds for, and report performance data for early detection of problems. Thresholds are used to set error levels for each performance monitoring parameter. During the accumulation cycle, if the current value of a performance monitoring parameter reaches or exceeds its corresponding threshold value, a threshold crossing alert (TCA) can be generated. The TCAs provide early detection of performance degradation.

Performance monitoring statistics are accumulated on a 15-minute basis, synchronized to the start of each quarter-hour. They are also accumulated on a daily basis starting at midnight. Historical counts are maintained for thirty-three 15-minute intervals and two daily intervals.

Performance monitoring is described in the following task:

•Configuring DWDM Controller Performance Monitoring
