All entities are characterized by a number of parameters, or attributes. The Management Data Guide lists all attributes that may be displayed on the Config, Info
and Fault pages in the management tools Craft Console, Web Console and EM.
Thus, the procedures in the Element Manager User Manual do not always
explain the attributes you can select for the fields, instead you are referred to the
Management Data Guide.
The parameters in the Management Data Guide are organized per module type.
For equipment and facilities there are tables containing parameters, faults and
performance information.

management via the Managed Element pane. This allows you to keep a long list
of NEs, without needing to connect to other ones than the ones you wish to
manage at the moment. When the number of activated NEs is large, this results
in a high memory consumption. Reducing the number of activated NEs reduces
the memory consumption.
When the memory consumption passes 90% of the memory allocated to the
Element Manager, a warning window appears. The window will provide guidance on recovering from this situation. A warning message will also appear in
the Response Log, and the Status bar memory indicator will turn red.
There are two ways to add IP connections in the Element Manager. Either by
adding a specific, known IP address or by letting the Element Manager discover
all NEs in an address range. The latter is practical if you need to add several
NEs.
The NEs send traps using the NEs system IP address as the trap sender identity. The Element Manager disregards traps with sender identities that do not
match any of the NEs that it is connected to. Therefore, the Element Manager
must connect to NEs using the NEs system IP addresses.

This section gives an introduction to the Element Manager, by providing a general description of it, the main features it offers, its architecture and how it operates.
The following topics are provided:
FSP 3000R7 R10.3 80000014705 Issue: B, 2011 ADVA Optical Networking ADVA Confidential
Overview, which describes briefly how the Element Manager works, the features
it offers and how it communicates with the NEs.
About the Graphical User Interface, which describes the Element Managers
graphical user interface (GUI) in detail. It describes each component of the GUI,
which information it displays and how to customize the display.
About Communicating with NEs, which describes how the Element Manager
communicates with the NEs.
Getting Help, which describes how you get help when working with the Element
Manager.

Overview
The Element Manager provides remote configuration and monitoring of one or
more SNMP Network Elements (NEs). The operator may manage NEs in a simple and intuitive way using the Element Manager point-and-click graphical user
interface.
Graphical components representing NEs, ports, power and fan may be selected
with the mouse. The appropriate management functions for a selected component are available in the Main Menu or the context sensitive popup menu. When
alarms occur, the graphical view gives an overview over these by outlining the
affected graphical component in color. This color reflects the most severe of all
current alarms of any of the underlying components.
The Element Manager can be used:

Overview
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used. SNMP defines how
a network management system shall communicate with an NE.
Figure 1:

This icon indicates that no event messages are sent from the NE to the Element Manager. This occurs when the IP address of the computer running
the Element Manager has not been entered in the NE trap table. To enter
the NE trap table see Accessing Trap Recipients on p. 53.
This icon indicates that lost traps are detected. The Element Manager has
not been able to recover lost traps from the NE. This could be due to DCN
problems or a heavily loaded NE. It is recommended to resynchronize the
NE to make sure the management data is up to date. The icon is removed
when the NE is resynchronized.
The NE name shown is the sysName (according to RFC 1213) of the NE. If the
Element Manager cannot get the NE name information, it displays the IP
address of the NE instead. To toggle between display of the NE name and the
NEs IP address, select View -> Name or View -> Address from the Main Menu.
NEs in the Network Element View are selected by pointing and clicking. When
an NE is selected, Element Manager indicates this by displaying an outline border on the NE symbol.

About Security
FSP 3000R7 R10.3 80000014705 Issue: B, 2011 ADVA Optical Networking ADVA Confidential
In order to avoid unauthorized access to the NEs, you must log on to the Element Manager.
Each Element Manager user has a unique name for identification and a password for authentication. Authentication will be done either against the local
password file, or by centralized authentication using Remote Authentication Dial
In User Service (RADIUS). If RADIUS authentication has been enabled for the
Element Manager, this authentication method is tried first (first priority), the local
password file is tried next.
Each user is assigned to a specific security level, defining the user's rights.
The following sections are provided:
Security Levels on p. 77
Local Authentication on p. 78
Centralized Authentication on p. 78
Security Levels
The following security levels are provided:
Administrator
Users with this security level have access rights to the entire functionality of the
Element Manager, including adding and deleting users from the Element Manager. Upon initial logon to the Element Manager this is the security level for the
default user.
Operator
Users with this security level have the same rights as the Administrator, with
exception of the commands to add or delete a user.
User Manual
77
About Security
Monitor
Users with this security level have the same rights as the Operator with exception of the commands to change settings on the NE.
Local Authentication
Initially, one user account is defined on the Element Manager. This is the user
name ADMIN with the password CHGME.1 and the security level Administrator.
The Administrator user can manage user accounts from the User Manager window, see Working with Element Manager User Accounts on p. 57.
PS
Note
Password requirements:
The Element Manager supports the Remote Authentication Dial In User Service
(RADIUS) protocol based on RFC2865 for centralized authentication. RADIUS
allows authentication of users by communicating with a central server using the
RADIUS protocol. The user profiles are maintained in a central database, and
RADIUS automatically recognizes the properties that are assigned to each
RADIUS user. Each user only needs one user name and one password for all
network elements. This makes RADIUS authentication a flexible authentication
method.
In combination with RADIUS authentication, the Element Manager uses one or
more SNMP access profiles when accessing the SNMP agents of the NEs that
are managed by the Element Manager.
Up to 3 RADIUS severs can be configured, and any RADIUS server application
can be used. If RADIUS authentication has been enabled, the Element Manager
will attempt to use the first listed RADIUS server for authentication. If this fails, it
will attempt to use the second and then third RADIUS server, if any have been
defined. It these too fail, the Element Manager will use the local password file.
This sequence of priority is not user-configurable.
In order to use RADIUS authentication and SNMP access profiles, the following
requirements must be met:

About Provisioning
About Provisioning
The basis for FSP3000R7 management, is the Network Element database. This
database is a virtual representation of the actual equipment and the facilities
that this equipment supports. Thus, this database reflects the actual equipment
and facilities present in the NE, or the equipment and facilities that are planned
for the NE.
The generic term that is used for equipment and facilities is entity. The database
recognizes each entity in an NE, by means of their Access Identifier (AID)
address and their entity type. Table 2 shows a few examples of AID addresses.
The Equipment Pane on p. 72 gives more details about AID addresses.
Example of AID addresses
AID address
example
MOD-1-3
PL-1-3-NE
CH-1-3-C1
Defining equipment and the facilities that they support, is called provisioning.
You provision each entity by creating it in the internal database, specifying the
relevant parameters for the entity in the process. You start by creating and configuring equipment: the shelf, the modules and any pluggable transceivers on
the modules. Then you create ports and configure the channels on these ports.
Thus the principle is to start at the bottom and then add entities that are supported by the existing entity. In the same manner, deletion must be done from
the top. You must first delete a channel before you can delete the port of module
that supports that channel.
The parameters that are provisioned into the internal database are stored and
can be used for future backup procedures. Any configuration after provisioning,
operates on the internal database, which again transfers these settings to the
actual equipment.
Provisioning may be done manually or automatically. Regardless of provisioning method, the entity is set to a default administrative state when provisioning
is finished. For manual provisioning the administrative state is Management. The
exception is if the supporting entity has administrative state Disabled, then the
provisioned entity is set to Disabled too. For automatic provisioning the administrative state is equal to that of the supporting entity. The exception is if the supporting entity is Maintenance, then the provisioned entity is set to Management.
When automatic provisioning is used, the FSP3000R7 detects the equipment,
and depending on the equipment, some of the entities. This equipment and
these facilities are provisioned with default parameter values. The default
administrative state is set equal to that of the supporting state.
If required, the default administrative state can be overruled. Then the Automatic
In Service administrative state is set, when the supporting entity state is In Service or Automatic In Service.

If you are not familiar with FTP or SCP, see About FTP and SCP on
p. 459 for a brief overview.
Step 15
During a file transfer, the NE's FTP or SCP client identifies itself with
an IP address. In a bi-directional IP communication the two IP hosts
involved need to be able to reach each other. Since both IP hosts
identify each other by the IP addresses in the IP header of the IP
packets, a successful IP communication relies on the availability of
routes for these IP addresses in all the routers along the path
between the IP hosts.
Some network operators may configure their network in such a way
that only the IP range in which the System IP addresses reside will be
routed through their network. In this case it must be made sure that
the FSP 3000R7 NE uses the System IP to identify itself as the
source in the IP header of packets it is sending.
If the network operator has configured his network to route the IP
range in which the IP addresses of the physical IP interfaces reside,
the default IP address as chosen by the IP stack can be used.
Use the Own IP drop-down list to specify the IP address to use in the
IP header as follows:
136
User Manual
FSP 3000R7 R10.3 80000014705 Issue: B, 2011 ADVA Optical Networking ADVA Confidential
The options are FTP or SCP. SCP is a more secure protocol. If the
SCP host is unknown, the transfer will fail. The user must therefore
ensure that the known hosts table includes the SCP host.

It is not advisable to delete user accounts which are in use.The network element
considers a user account to be in use in the following situations:
When a user has logged on to the network element with this user account.
This includes connections using http (Web Console), Telnet (Craft Console), SSH (Craft Console), SCP, and FTP. The network element will deny
deletion of a user account when a user has logged on with it.
When a management application (for example an NMS system) has a virtual SNMPv3 session with the network element, using this user account
(see Figure 17). The network element considers a session to be active for
10 minutes after it was terminated. It is possible to delete this user account
even though a virtual SNMPv3 session uses it, but the user will be warned
that the account is used by an active SNMPv3 session. The user will also
have the option to cancel the deletion.

The system IP address is the loopback IP address for the NE, and is used as the
SNMP trap sender address, the OSPF router ID, and for ring group switching.
The Element Manager uses the System IP Address for connecting to the NE, so
if you change this address, the Element Manager will lose contact with the NE.
The system IP address is always OSPF enabled.
User Manual
225
Procedure
Step 1
PS
Note
If the NE shall use OSPF: Ensure that the planned IP addresses for
the system IP address, the Ethernet IP interfaces and the PPP IP
interfaces are unique. If the IP addresses are not unique, the DCN will
be non-functional because OSPF will not announce multiple IP interfaces with the same IP address. The default values for the system
and Ethernet IP addresses are not unique, so they must be changed
in this case.
The system IP address is used as the SNMP trap sender address, so
this is the IP address that should be entered in the Element Manager,
if the Element Manager shall be used for management of the NE.
If the NE shall not use OSPF: The system IP address and the Ethernet address may be the same. Likewise the PPP IP addresses may
be the same.

b) Enter the OSPF cost for this interface in the Routing Metric field.
The default OSPF costis 100, which is independent of the IP
interface's bandwidth.
The higher the OSPF Cost, the less likely the OSPF routing protocol will enter routes to the attached network which go via this
interface into the routing tables of the OSPF routers.
c) Select the OSPF area ID for this interface.
The area ID may be different for different IP interfaces on a network element. If multiple area ID's are configured, the NE operates as an area border router. An NE configured as an area
border router must have at least one IP interface assigned to the
backbone area ID 0.0.0.0.
Step 6
End of Procedure
This procedure describes how to add or delete a static route to the routing table.
Static routes can be configured to be able to reach new destinations (destinations that are not immediately reachable through the configured IP interfaces).
Static routes must point out the next hop or gateway to reach the new destination, as well as the IP interface over which the gateway can be reached. A gateway in a static route must therefore always be in the same IP subnet as the IP
interface towards the gateway in that static route. For a static route using a PPP
IP interface towards the gateway, the gateway IP address must be equal to the
local/near-end IP address of that PPP IP interfaces. In the case of an unnumbered PPP IP interface, use the local System IP address as the default gateway.
The DCN plan should give you the needed information to configure static routes:
for each new destination the gateway and IP interface towards the gateway
must be defined.
A static route will become active immediately (i.e. no reboot is required), but
only if its IP interface towards the gateway is operationally up. You can view
both the active and the inactive routes. Viewing the inactive routes allows you to
delete static route configurations that are not currently active.
To define static routes, a user account of ADMIN level is required.

A default route is just a special case of a static route, namely for the destination
"0.0.0.0". If no other, more specific static routes are present for the destination
being looked up, the default route will always apply as a last resort. Configuring
a default static route is the easiest way to perform static routing, and can still be
useful in combination with dynamic routing, namely as a fall-back solution in
case OSPF would fail.
There is one special option for configuring a default route using an Ethernet
interface: see Assigning a Default Gateway via the IP Ethernet Interface on
p. 237. This method provides a very simple way of configuring a default route,
and this configuration will be taken into account by the Linux system and be
operational independently of the ADVA specific NE software. This default route
will have metric 0, and thus have the highest priority. However, by design, this
default route cannot be advertised by OSPF. Activating this configuration
requires a reboot. Consider whether this option is relevant.
To define static routes, a user account of ADMIN level is required.

Client Only mode. The NE will operate as an NTP client and receive its timing information from some remote NTP server.
Relay mode. The NE will operate as an NTP client, receiving its timing information from some remote NTP server, and will simultaneously operate as
an NTP server, distributing time to other NTP clients. NEs operating as NTP
clients can therefore configure this NE as their remote NTP server. This
mode is typically used for a gateway NE, receiving time information from a
remote NTP server in the external network, and distributing it further to the
NEs in the internal network.
Server Only mode. The NE will operate as an NTP server, distributing time
to NTP clients. NEs operating as NTP clients can therefore configure this
NE as their remote NTP server. In this mode, the NE receives its time information from the local hardware clock. Date, time, and time zone must therefore be set manually for this NE.
Because the local hardware clock of the NE is not very precise, only use Server
Only mode if no other remote NTP servers (with a precise clock) are available,
or use it as a back-up in case such more precise remote NTP servers fail. When
used as a back-up, any other remote NTP server will be prioritized over an FSP
3000R7 NTP server, as the latter's stratum is set to the highest possible value.

Step 5
a) Enter the IP address for the remote NTP server in the IP Address
field.
b) When the NE communicates with the NTP server, it identifies
itself with its IP address. In a bi-directional IP communication the
two IP hosts involved need to be able to reach each other.
Because both IP hosts identify each other by the IP addresses in
the IP header of the IP packets, a successful IP communication
relies on the availability of routes for these IP addresses in all the
routers along the path between the IP hosts.
Some network operators may configure their network in such a
way that only the IP range in which the System IP addresses
reside will be routed through their network. In this case it must be
made sure that the NE uses the System IP to identify itself as the
source in the IP header of packets it is sending.
If the network operator has configured his network to route the IP
range in which the IP addresses of the physical IP interfaces
reside, the default IP address as chosen by the IP stack can be
used.
Use the Own IP drop-down list to specify the IP address to use in
the IP header as follows:
Select Default-IP if the IP address that the IP stack would
choose by default should be used (this is the IP address of
the interface through which the packet is sent)
Select System IP if the system IP address should be used

Scheduled equalization is specified on a network basis, thus all NEs in the network must be scheduled for equalization at the same time, date, and interval.
Scheduled equalization must be completed within 41 minutes. The designated
scheduled equalization start time is based on coordinated universal time (UTC).
Once a UTC time value is entered, the system displays the local NE time automatically.
The date and time you define in the schedule are in the NEs time
zone, which can be different from the Element Managers time zone.
PS
Note
If all nodes in the network are not in the same time zone, you must
take this into consideration to schedule equalization at the same date
and time.
Requirements
Observe these rules when setting the parameters for a scheduled equalization:
User Manual
If the NE is operating as an NTP client or relay, that NE must be synchronized with at least one remote NTP server. If it is not, the scheduled equalization process stops, and an alarm condition is raised. As soon as NTP
synchronization is achieved, scheduled equalization restarts, and the alarm
clears. For more information about operating NTP on a node in client or
relay mode, see How to Add a Remote Syslog Server on p. 292.
Scheduled equalization start time and interval must be the same for all
nodes in the network. All scheduled equalizations are based on UTC.

Span equalization automates the gain provisioning of variable gain pre-amplifiers, boosters, and line-amplifiers between network elements, on a span basis.
Span equalization and ROADM channel power equalization automatically perform overall network equalization and simplify the management of complex optical networks.
Note
In addition to the three primary functions, dynamic span equalization adds the
ability to constantly monitor the span loss in an operational network and dynamically compensate for span loss drift, by adjusting the gains of the appropriate
amplifiers.
User Manual
297
Span equalization does not set the gain of Raman amplifiers in a node. After
a Raman amplifier has been installed and successfully provisioned, span
equalization provisions the gain setting of qualified EDFA amplifier modules, accounting for the Raman amplifier gain.
Span equalization does not operate on nodes that contain more than one
pre-amplifier on a span.
Span equalization does not support networks with VSM or RSM modules
protecting the network interfaces.
Configuration Procedures
This section describes how to turn-up span equalization for two example linear
networks. In addition the section contains supporting procedures for the central
sub-tasks required during this turn-up.

Procedure
Step 1
In the TIM Mode field, specify whether the TIM Alarm shall be raised
upon detection of a mismatch between Expected and Received trace
message. If you select Enabled_AISDisabled, a TIM Alarm will be
raised upon detection of a mismatch between Expected and
Received message, but there will not be sent any Alarm Indication
Signal. By default, TIM Mode is disabled.
Step 2
Select the message format in the Format field. The trace byte may
contain a whole message, or successive bytes may be concatenated
to contain a longer message. The supported message length
depends on the mapping type. You can choose 1 Byte, 16 Byte or 64
Byte. See Step 4 for more information on these values.
Step 3
Select the code to enter the message in, ASCII, Hex (hexadecimal) or
G.831.
Step 4
User Manual
In the Expected field, write the trace message you expect to receive
back.
The 1 byte frame shall contain one of the codes 0-255 for Decimal
format, or a hexadecimal code for the Hex format.
In the 16 byte frame, the first byte should consist of a CRC-7 calculation over the previous frame, and the following 15 bytes
transport the Source Access Point Identifier (SAPI), expressed in
T.50 characters. This gives you 15 characters to compose your
message.
In the 64 byte frame the last two bytes are carriage return (0x0d)
and a line feed (0x0a). This particular combination of values must
not be used in other places in the message. The 64 byte format
thus gives you 62 characters to compose your message.
319
Step 5
In the Transmitted field, write the trace message you want to send.
PS
The sender and receiver should agree upon the Transmitted and
Expected trace messages before starting the Trace process.

Physical termination point (PTP) entities are automatically created when port
entities for a module are created. These PTPs represent each point in the NE to
which a cable can be connected, including network internal cables. The access
identifier of a physical termination point is derived from the AID of the port entity.
For example: PTP-1-9-N is the physical termination point for the port CH-1-9-N.
Network fiber endpoints are represented by Optical Line (OL) entities, and physical termination point (PTP) entities are automatically created for these as well.
In this case an optical line can have access identifier OL-1, and the physical termination point is PTP-1A fiber jumper is represented in the database by an interconnection between the
PTP entities of the two ports that it interconnects. Therefore, a connection is created in the database between the relevant PTP entities for each fiber jumper in
the NE. A connected network fiber endpoint is modeled by an interconnection
between the PTP of its OL entity and the PTP of the network port it is connected
to.

The alarm profile resides together with the data base, and is backed-up together
with the data base when a data-base backup is done. An alarm profile created
on one NE, can be exported, stored, and imported to another NE, and applied to
that NE.

Handling of Files
The NE software and database files are stored in two areas on the NCU: in the
active and in the standby area.
Overview of Software and Database File Handling
The NE software in the active or standby area consists of one NCU software file,
the FWP files for each module type, and the configuration file. In addition, the
active or standby area contains a database framework with default values.
These files all originate from an NE software package. The database file in the
active area contains the current configuration of the running system. The
standby area originates from the default factory installation or from a restoration
of a backed up database.
The active area contains the files that are currently used by the NE. The standby
area is used to prepare a change in software and/or database versions by
installing the new file versions to the standby area. The NE starts using the new
versions when the contents of the standby area are activated, which means that
the standby area becomes the active area, and the active area becomes the
standby area. Thus, the previously active version is contained in the standby
area until a different file version is installed in the standby area. The standby
software files and database files can be activated individually.
The file area is an intermediate storage area located on a RAM disk (RDISK) on
the NCU, and is cleared on reboot. It is used to download software and database files from external storage to the NE, and to upload backup database files
to external storage.

Downloading and uploading files may be done using File Transfer Protocol
(FTP) or Secure Copy (SCP). SCP uses Secure Socket Layer (SSH). NEs with
an NCU including a 1 GB CompactFlash (CF) installed have an FTP and SSH
server on board. The NCU-II is an example of this. For all other NEs, an external
FTP or SSH server is required to upload files to the NE. An external FTP server
must support passive FTP mode.
Database backup files can alternatively be stored in a file area on the SCU, and
restored from this area on the SCU. This requires an SCU with hardware revision 2.01 or higher.
FSP 3000R7 R10.3 80000014705 Issue: B, 2011 ADVA Optical Networking ADVA Confidential
The NE software and database that shall be activated on an NE must have the
same version. When a software update is performed, which is a valid update
path, the version of the database is automatically updated to the version of the
NE software. Otherwise, a situation in which functionality of the software is not
supported by the database could arise, and vice versa. Services could be
affected by this.
In order to prevent a database from making service affecting (SA) changes to
the installed modules, the NCU detects when it is inserted into a new network
element, as well as when a new CompactFlash (CF) has been inserted. It then
switches to an auxiliary database. This auxiliary database functions as a security mechanism, in which the settings of the equipment are not altered by it. It will
therefore not have an impact on a running system. The auxiliary database uses
the default IP address, and thus management contact with the NE will be lost.
You will have to be on site, and reconnect to the NE via a serial connection, to
restore contact. Refer to the FSP 3000R7 User Guide for help on fixing the problem.
During activation of a software update, the first step taken by the system is to
preserve the former software database. This is done by copying the former
database to the active area and migrating its format to the new software version
in the process. The format update is necessary for the database to match the
features of the new software version. In addition, the first time a software update

If you decide to use the former software after already using the new software,
the former software including its database file is fully intact. In other words, after
a software update you can switch back to the former software by activating it
(activate STBY). Figure 26 illustrates this.
Switchback to Previous NE Software and Database
However, when the software versions in the Active and Standby areas are
switched, it is possible to keep the currently used database (in the Active area)
for the new software while not touching the database in the Standby area.

For all NE software files, the XXYYZ in the file name indicates the version of that
file, and uses the same syntax as for the release number.
The release number of the NE software package is updated when the version

c) During a file transfer, the NE's FTP or SCP client identifies itself
with an IP address. In a bi-directional IP communication the two
IP hosts involved need to be able to reach each other. Since both
IP hosts identify each other by the IP addresses in the IP header
of the IP packets, a successful IP communication relies on the
availability of routes for these IP addresses in all the routers along
the path between the IP hosts.
Some network operators may configure their network in such a
way that only the IP range in which the System IP addresses
reside will be routed through their network. In this case it must be
made sure that the FSP 3000R7 NE uses the System IP to identify itself as the source in the IP header of packets it is sending.
If the network operator has configured his network to route the IP
range in which the IP addresses of the physical IP interfaces
reside, the default IP address as chosen by the IP stack can be
used.
Use the Own IP drop-down list to specify the IP address to use in
the IP header as follows:
Select Default-IP if the IP address that the IP stack would
choose by default should be used (this is the IP address of
the interface through which the packet is sent).
Select System IP if the system IP address should be used.

In the Login and Password fields, enter the user account name and

Whether the case (lower/upper) of a user name or password as
entered is taken into account depends on the remote server.
If this remote server is running on an FSP 3000R7 NE (e.g. acting as
a GNE), it will not take the case of the user name and password as
entered into account. Instead, due to TL1 standards restrictions, the
user names and passwords for accounts on an FSP 3000R7 NE are
converted to all uppercase before they are saved or validated.
For most other remote servers, account user names and passwords
are case-sensitive. Please refer to the manual of the remote server in
question.

The Element Manager allows you to conditionally update. You can, for example,
specify that the FWP for a module shall be updated as long as this update does
not affect any services on the module. This means you can allow a FWP update
that will affect services, to be done only on the modules with services that are
out of service. This allows you to quickly update FWPs on a number of modules
and control whether this process will affect service or not, without having to
check specifically the effects each new version update has on services.
Modules that have not been assigned to the database (administrative state

All types, which means that FWP for all modules in the NE will be
updated, if their current version differs from the version in the
Standby Area. The SCUs will be updated last.
<module types>, for example VSM, which indicates that FWP for
all modules of this type will be updated, if their current version differs from the version in the Standby Area. It is recommended that
you update FWP for SCUs after you have updated FWP for other
modules.

The files that shall be uploaded from the NE can be destined to three
different places, depending on the file type. Use the Destination
drop-down list to specify this.
If the file is destined for an external FTP or SCP server: Select the
option Remote File Server. This is relevant for a database backup
file or an alarm profile file.
If the file is destined for an external FTP client: Select the option
Use FTP Server on NE. This option is only available for database
backup files, and only if the NE has an NCU with a 1 GB CompactfFash (CF) installed. In this case there is a local FTP server
on board the NE, which can organize the transfer to the external
FTP client. The NCU-II is an example of this. The FTP server on
an NE is by default disabled, and must be enabled for this option
to be available.
If the file is destined for the SCU: Select the option SCU. This
option is only available for database backup files, and only if the
NE has an SCU with hardware revision 2.01 or newer.

During a file transfer, the NE's FTP or SCP client identifies itself with
an IP address. In a bi-directional IP communication the two IP hosts
involved need to be able to reach each other. Since both IP hosts
identify each other by the IP addresses in the IP header of the IP
packets, a successful IP communication relies on the availability of

routes for these IP addresses in all the routers along the path
between the IP hosts.
Some network operators may configure their network in such a way
that only the IP range in which the System IP addresses reside will be
routed through their network. In this case it must be made sure that
the FSP 3000R7 NE uses the System IP to identify itself as the
source in the IP header of packets it is sending.
If the network operator has configured his network to route the IP
range in which the IP addresses of the physical IP interfaces reside,
the default IP address as chosen by the IP stack can be used.
Use the Own IP drop-down list to specify the IP address to use in the
IP header as follows:

Administrative States, which describes the administrative states for the network
element and which implications these states have.
Operational States, which describes the operational states for the network element and which implications these states have.
Administrative States
The administrative state is user settable and controls configuration and operation of each entity. When the administrative state changes to any state other
than In Service, an informative condition is raised, indicating that the administrative state has changed. These condition names all begin with OOS, indicating Out of Service.
In Service
While in this administrative state (IS), normal surveillance can take place. You
may not perform any operation or configuration that affects service. You can
only set an entitys administrative state to In Service if the entity that supports it
is also In Service.
Automatic In Service
When equipment is set to this administrative state (AINS), alarms are not
reported. You may not perform any operation or configuration that affects service. Transition from this state to In Service takes place automatically, when all
alarms on the module or any pluggable transceiver causing the Outage or
Supporting Entity Outage operational states are cleared. You can only set a
the administrative state of a piece of equipment to Automatic In Service if any
equipment that supports it is also Automatic In Service or In Service and the
entity that it supports is not In Service.
User Manual

Administrative States
When facilities are set to this administrative state (AINS), alarms are not
reported and performance monitoring records are invalid. You may not perform
any operation or configuration that affects service. Transition from this state to
In Service takes place automatically, when all alarms causing the Outage or
Supporting Entity Outage operational states have been cleared for a specific
time period. You can only set an entitys administrative state to Automatic In
Service if the entity that supports it is also Automatic In Service or In Service
and the entity that it supports is not In Service.
Management
While in this administrative state (MGT), you may perform service affecting configurations. That is, it might lead to payload traffic loss in which alarms are not
reported, and performance monitoring records are invalid. Therefore, consider
the consequences when using this state. Contact your local technical support
team if there is any uncertainty.
You can only set an entitys administrative state to Management if the entity
that supports it is not Disabled and the entity that it supports is not In Service
or not Automatic In Service.
While in this administrative state (MT), you may perform service affecting operations. That is, it might lead to payload traffic loss in which alarms are not
reported, and performance monitoring records are invalid. Therefore, consider
the consequences when using this state. Contact your local technical support
team if there is any uncertainty.
You can only set an entitys administrative state to Maintenance if the entity
that supports it is not Disabled and the entity that it supports is not In Service
or not Automatic In Service.
Disabled
While in this administrative state (DSBLD), all alarm notifications from the entity
are stopped. Performance monitoring is disabled. If traffic on the entity is
affected then this is shown by a corresponding "OOS Tx Disabled (OFF)" or
"OOS Rx Disabled" condition. You may perform service affecting configurations.
You can only set an entitys administrative state to Disabled if the entity that it
supports is Disabled or Unassigned.
Unassigned
You enter this administrative state (UAS) automatically when an entity is
installed, but not provisioned to the internal database. As a consequence, only
inventory information is available for this entity. In the management tools, the
administrative state is therefore displayed in parentheses behind the entity
name in the list of entities.

A number of IP subnets can be added to the list, but if the use of restricted IP
subnets has not been enabled, they will have no effect. Any change to the list of
restricted IP subnets after this feature has been enabled, requires a re-start of
the Element Manager to take effect.

Appendix D
Configuring a RADIUS Server
This appendix describes how to configure a RADIUS server that can be used for
remote authentication of Element Managers. It also describes how to test that it
works for authentication.
FSP 3000R7 R10.3 80000014705 Issue: B, 2011 ADVA Optical Networking ADVA Confidential
In principle any RADIUS server application can be used, this appendix is based
on using the FreeRADIUS server application for Windows. The FreeRADIUS
server application is available from http://freeradius.org/. It is one of the most
widely deployed RADIUS servers in the world.
This procedure describes how to configure a RADIUS server so it can be used
for authentication of users.
Procedure
Step 1
Step 2
In the RADIUS server, specify the privilege levels that are supported
by the FSP 3000R7s (clients) that will use this RADIUS server.
Step 3
If necessary, modify the port that the RADIUS server uses to communicate with the Element Manager.
Step 4
Define the IP address for the Element Managers (clients) that will use
this RADIUS server and the shared secret that the RADIUS server
and Element managers (clients) will use.
Step 5
End of Procedure
The following supporting sections are provided:
Installing and Starting a RADIUS Server on p. 492
Specifying Privilege Levels on p. 493
Modifying the Port for RADIUS Authentication on p. 494
Defining the Element Manager IP Addresses on p. 495
User Manual
491
PS
Note
You must stop and restart the server whenever changes are made to
the RADIUS servers configuration file. This is necessary because the
daemon must build a memory table of all default attributes contained
in the configuration files.
Procedure
Step 1
Run the installer Setup Wizard on a computer that is reachable for the
network elements.
Step 2
Start the RADIUS server application. An icon will appear in the system tray of your taskbar to show it is running.
The default directory structure created by the installer looks like the
following:
