Configure the external port of the Ethernet board

Required

When a network element accesses Ethernet services through the external port of the Ethernet single board, it is necessary to configure various attributes of the external port in order to cooperate with the data communication equipment on the customer side to realize normal access to Ethernet services.

Configuring the internal ports of the Ethernet single board

Required

When a network element transmits Ethernet services to the SDH side through the internal port (i.e., VCTRUNK) of the Ethernet board, various attributes of the VCTRUNK port need to be configured in order to cooperate with the Ethernet single board on the opposite side of the network element to realize the transmission of Ethernet services in the SDH network.

Creating Ethernet Private Line Services

Required.

• Use the Ethernet passthrough veneer and skip directly to ④. This is because the Ethernet passthrough veneer already creates all EPL service connections from external ports to internal ports by default.
• Using an Ethernet switching processing veneer, you must create EPL service connections between external ports and internal ports.

Creating SDH Services

Required

In order for an Ethernet service to be transmitted over a specified time slot on a transmission line, a cross-connection between the VCTRUNK-bound channel and the corresponding time slot on the line board needs to be created.

Test Ethernet service channel

Required

After completing the Ethernet service creation, the connectivity of the Ethernet service needs to be verified.

Set the performance monitoring parameters of the network element

Required

Start the performance monitoring of the specified network element to obtain the detailed performance record of the network element during operation, which is convenient for the maintenance personnel to monitor and analyze the operation status of the network element.

Required

Ensure that the main control board of the network element can automatically resume operation after losing data or powering down the device by backing up the network element database operation.
