ZIC overview
Overview
The Zero Installation Craft (ZIC) terminal is a project in charge of the local management
of single network elements, providing ITU-compliant Information Model Interface to the
Network Element.
The ZIC can be integrated to products in charge of the management of networks and
network elements. The Network Element (NE) provides the web server while the user
only needs to start a standard available web browser to access the ZIC application.

Figure 2-1 ZIC authentication window

The Authentication dialog window displays the product name and release number. It also
contains the following fields:
• User - Specifies a unique user identifier.
• Password - Specifies the user login password. According to the specification, it is a
sequence of case-sensitive alphanumeric characters.
• Local Time - This check-box allows to select the local PC time.
• Language - Allows to select the language. Default is English.
• Login - Allows to login to the home page of the NE.

Menus
Description
This section describes an important aspect of the user interface. The user constantly has to
open Pages, select icons and navigate through the different functionalities of the Zero
Installation Craft (ZIC) terminal. A menu consists of a title, that usually identifies the
nature of the actions that can be undertaken, and a list of options associated with actions.
Menu types can be classified as:
• Menu bars
• Pull-down menus
• Cascading menus
• Pop-up menus

Pull down menu

A pull-down menu is pulled down from a menu item present in a menu bar. To open a
pull-down menu, click on the title of the menu you need to open with the“Select” mouse
button.
Note: A menu option followed by “...” means that selecting this option opens another
view. For example the Open... or Save As... menu options in the File pull-down
menu.

Cascading menus
Cascading menus are derived from pull-down menus and represent additional options for
the pull-down menu item selected. Cascading menus are indicated if the “>” sign follows
an option in a pull-down menu.
To open a cascading menu, click on the menu option with the “>” sign in the pull-down

When to use
This procedure is to be used as a guideline for a set of instructions to create, configure,
activate and delete a traffic descriptor.
A Traffic descriptor is the set of Committed Information Rate (CIR), Committed Burst
Size (CBS), Peak Information Rate (PIR), and Peak Burst Size (PBS) parameters used by
the System for bandwidth checks related to port bit rate or Virtual Transport bit rate on
which tunnels and pseudowires are defined. Main use is metering and policing operations.

CBS [KBytes] Committed Burst Size - This is the maximum burst size (byte) with high
priority guaranteed for delivery.
PBS [KBytess] Peak Burst Size - This is the maximum burst rate allowed (byte).

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

3 The Traffic Descriptor tab displays the table that contains different traffic descriptor
entries.

Table 5-2 Service type parameters

Parameter Description
Service type Indicates the Traffic codification, according to international standard
conversion:
bestEffortService - serves Low priority traffic, which relies on transport
layer protocol to recover from loss and tolerates large delay; for
example: E-mail and file transfer applications. Best Effort denotes BW
(PIR > CIR = 0 in 100kbps increments), which may or may not be
available per network operator’s reservation for Best Effort policy. It
may therefore be unavailable under congestion conditions.
backGroundService
regulatedService - serves Medium priority traffic, which relies on
transport layer protocol to recover from occasional loss and requires
moderate delay; for example, client–server applications. Regulated
service denotes BW (PIR > CIR >0 in 100 Kbps increments), which may
be overbooked per network operator’s overbooking policy. The portion
of bandwidth between CIR and PIR (EIR) may therefore be partially
available under congestion conditions.
Grouped
regulatedService1
regulatedService3
regulatedService4
guaranteedService - serves High priority traffic for mission critical
applications that require loss–less delivery and minimal delay.
Guaranteed SLA denotes BW (CIR = PIR > 0 in 100 Kbps increments),
that is always available regardless of any congestion conditions. Traffic
delivered using Guaranteed BW, is policed to the CIR value with a burst
window equal to the CBS.
guaranteedService2

Parameter Description
CIR [Kb/sec] This is the normal medium rate (expressed in kb/sec) of the data flow
(Effective Bandwidth) and it ranges from 0 to PIR value. It can be set
only if the RegulatedService has been selected; in BestEffortService
case it is set to 0 by the system; in GuaranteedService case it is set equal
to PIR value.
PIR [Kb/sec] This is the maximum rate (expressed in kb/sec) up to which the source
can transmit for a short time period and it ranges from 3 to
physical-linerate of the relative Port.
CBS [Kbytes] This is the committed number of bytes for which the source may
transmit the PIR; it ranges from 0 to 64 MB. It can be set only if the
RegulatedService traffic has been selected; in BestEffortService case it
is set to 0 by the system; in GuaranteedService case it is set equal to PBS
value. A value greater than MTU (e.g. 2000) is advisable.
PBS [Kbytes] This is the number of bytes for which are allowed to be sent above PIR
or CIR before the colour (drop eligibility) of the packet changes; it
ranges from 1 to 64 MB (this max value cannot be greater than the
minimum value of 64 MB or 256xCBS. I.e.: if CBS=2000, then
PBS<512 kB). A value greater than MTU (e.g. 2000) is advisable.

Procedure 5-2: Resource Availability

When to use
This procedure is used to monitor and to count the amount of dynamic NE resources,
where dynamic NE resources (for example, ETS Classifier, ETS Inflow, ETS Outflow
and so on..) are mapped inside NE internal resources.
This features allows you to perform the following functions:
• to report the “Used” amount of entries and the “Available” amount of entries
(associated to each dynamic NE resource) to a Management operator, informing the
Management Operator when available resources are exhausted
• to support Resource management feature to track Resources limitations (“on per-NE
basis”) through dedicated Resource Management pools (see Figure 5-2, “Resource
Management Pools” (p. 5-6) ). Each Resource Management Pool allows the
monitoring of a resource, relying on the following retrieved information (for each
resource):
– used entries
– available entries
• to keep aligned the values inside Management Pools with Packet processor CAM

Procedure 7-7: Housekeeping support

When to use
The NE will be able to receive and process three separate customer-defined inputs for
fault conditions arising externally to the NE. The fault conditions will be processed and
reported as for internally detected fault conditions.
It will be possible to disable the reporting from any input if not used. The inputs will be
capable of interfacing to a dry relay contact, that is, an input will comprise two wire
interfaces capable of detecting an open or closed circuit condition between the two
connections. Each user alarm input is separately configured to accept either a closed
circuit or open circuit state as the active alarm condition. The inputs from the dry contacts
are normally used for site specific alarms such as open door, high temperature, high water
level, and so on. The polarity of an external input control determines the relationship
between the declaration of an environmental condition and the physical signal. The NE
shall drive one separate output station controls for customer defined, site specific
facilities external to the NE, such as air conditioning, generators, and so on. Operating an
external control means that a relay is activated to control some external device. Releasing
an external control means deactivating the relay. The polarity of an external output
control determines the relationship between the control state (CONTSTATE) value and
the physical signal. Provisioning of housekeeping alarms and controls is persistent
Customer access to the Housekeeping (HKP) connections is through 25 pin D-Sub
connector on the NE user access panel.

Procedure 10-11: Administer NTP

When to use
This procedure provides the instructions to retrieve the Network Time Protocol (NTP)
server IP address, provision NTP servers, and delete NTP servers. It also provides
instructions to enable and disable the NTP synchronization.
NTP servers are used for time-of-day synchronization when the NTP protocol is enabled.
If no NTP server is entered and the NTP protocol is enabled, the time-of-day clock
synchronizes with the last known internal clock frequency.
When NTP is enabled, the NE internal time-of-day clock uses the calculated Coordinated
Universal Time (UTC) from the selected NTP server, which is modified by the
user-provisioned offset. All messages, event reports, logs, and events that carry time
stamps use the following time of day: NTP UTC time + provisioned offset.

1 Select System Management → Network Time Protocol option from the menu bar.

Procedure 10-18: LAG management

When to use
The Link Aggregation function is an extension of the MAC layer which allows grouping
of a set of physical Ethernet interfaces into one logical interface with greater capacity and
reliability. The Link Aggregation Group (LAG) is valid only as a link between two
systems (called the Partners). Grouping of more interfaces linking one system with two or
more Partners is not allowed.
Permitted port rates to be aggregated are 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps (10 Mbps and 100 Mbps
are for future release). The max number of ports (LAG-size) to be aggregated is 16; (LAG
stands for Link Aggregation Group). Links may be anytime added or removed to/from the
bundle. Ports to be aggregated can be either located on the same board and also on
different boards.
Its management in the network is based upon the communication, between the aggregate
partner pieces of equipment, of LACP messages (Link Aggregation Control Protocol).
The LACP packets transport information about set-up, aggregation capability, links
failures, automatic reconfiguration after failure, etc.
