1 CHAPTER 2 Preparing FRSM and MPSM Lines and Ports for Communications This chapter describes how to bring up physical lines and add logical ports on the FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM, MPSM-8E1-FRM, FRSM-2CT3, FRSM-2T3E3, and FRSM-HS2/B cards by using the command-line interface (CLI). These topics describe how to bring up physical lines and add logical ports to the FRSM and MPSM cards installed in PXM45/PXM1E and PXM1 platforms: Preparing for Provisioning Quickstart Provisioning Procedures General FRSM and MPSM Provisioning Procedures FRSM and MPSM cards, lines, and ports can also be configured using the Cisco WAN Manager (CWM) application. For configuration instructions, refer to the Cisco WAN Manager User s Guide, Release Bringing up physical lines and adding logical ports on FRSM and MPSM cards is described in Table 2-1. Table 2-1 Line and Port Configuration on FRSM and MPSM Cards Configuration Task Bringing up physical lines Adding logical ports Description Lines establish physical layer connectivity between a FRSM/MPSM port and the same port type (T1, for example) on another device. Frame Relay ports establish Frame Relay communications over a line to Frame Relay customer premises equipment (CPE). To eliminate redundancy and to help experienced users complete configuration tasks efficiently, this chapter provides configuration quickstart procedures. The first time you configure a line or port, use the applicable quickstart procedure to get an overview of the tasks to be performed. Then, for more detailed instructions, consult the appropriate section(s) elsewhere in the document that are called out in the quickstart procedure. As you gain experience in configuring FRSM and MPSM lines and ports, referring to a quickstart procedure may suffice for performing a particular configuration task. 2-1

2 Preparing for Provisioning Chapter 2 Tip You can get information about most CLI commands by entering the command without parameters. Ordinarily, experienced users can configure FRSM and MPSM cards using just the quickstart procedures and the online help facilities. For a detailed description of the commands used in this chapter, refer to Chapter 6, FRSM and MPSM Command Reference. Preparing for Provisioning Before you begin configuring lines and ports on FRSM and MPSM cards, you need to initialize the cards you plan to provision. The MPSM card must be configured for the interface type and service type through the use of the PXM cnfcdmode command and also requires the management of feature licenses. Then you should develop and implement a plan for the card redundancy, line redundancy, and bulk distribution options available for each service module. This plan determines how service modules and their back cards must be installed in the chassis, and how lines must connect to the cards before software configuration starts. Without a plan developed for these services, a configuration change for any of these services has the potential to interrupt service and can require substantial configuration teardown. The FRSM-2CT3, FRSM-2T3E3, and FRSM-HS2/B cards support 1:1 card redundancy, and the FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM, and MPSM-8E1-FRM cards support 1:N card redundancy and bulk distribution through the support of Service Resource Module (SRM) cards. Line redundancy is available to those service modules that support bulk distribution through use of the SRME or SRME/B card with an optical back card. For an overview of the features that the SRM card provides to the FRSM and MPSM cards, see SRM Card Services in Chapter 1, Introduction. For instructions on displaying, moving, and allocating MPSM feature licenses and managing MPSM feature license alarms, see Managing MPSM Feature Licenses in Chapter 5, Managing FRSM and MPSM Cards. For instructions on initializing cards; configuring card redundancy, line redundancy, and bulk distribution; and managing MPSM feature licenses on the PXM processor card, refer to the Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1E/PXM45), Cisco MGX 8950, and Cisco MGX 8830 Configuration Guide, Release 5.1, the Release s for Cisco MGX 8230, Cisco MGX 8250, and Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1) Switches, Release , and the Cisco MGX 8850 Edge Concentrator Installation and Configuration, Release documentation. Quickstart Provisioning Procedures These quickstart tasks contain abbreviated procedures for selecting the MPSM interface and service type, moving MPSM feature licenses, and provisioning the line and port capabilities of FRSM and MPSM cards installed in Cisco MGX 8230, Cisco MGX 8250, Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1), Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1E/PXM45), and Cisco MGX 8830 switches: MPSM Interface and Service Configuration Quickstart Moving MPSM Feature Licenses Quickstart FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM, MPSM-8E1-FRM, and FRSM-HS2/B Line Configuration Quickstart 2-2

Bringing Up Lines Installing a FRSM or MPSM card can add up to 8 physical lines to your switch. You must bring up a line before you can configure it or before you can provision Frame Relay services on the line. Before a line is brought up, or after it is brought down, the switch does not monitor the line. Prior to bringing up a line, the FRSM or MPSM port status light for the line is unlit, and all line alarms are cleared. When you bring up a line on a FRSM or MPSM card, the switch starts monitoring the line. The FRSM or MPSM card port status light turns green when physical layer connectivity is established with a remote device. If a physical layer communications problem occurs, the port status light turns red and an alarm is reported. Tip To minimize the number of alarms reported and to reduce the frequency of failed port status lamps (which display red), it is recommended that you keep lines down until they are actually needed for communication. 2-10

11 Chapter 2 General FRSM and MPSM Provisioning Procedures To bring up a FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, FRSM-2T3E3, FRSM-2CT3, FRSM-HS2/B, MPSM-8T1-FRM, or MPSM-8E1-FRM line on a Cisco MGX switch, perform the following steps: Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP 1 privileges or higher. Select the FRSM or MPSM card on which you want to bring up a line by issuing the cc command, as shown below: PXM1E_SJ.1.7.PXM.a > cc <slotnumber> Replace the <slotnumber> parameter with the number of the slot in which the FRSM card is installed. Enter the dsplns command to check which lines on the card are available to bring up. To activate a line on the FRSM or MPSM card, enter the addln command as shown below: PXM1E_SJ.1.1.FRSM.a > addln <line> [<interface_type>] Replace the <line> parameter with the number corresponding to the back card port to which the line is connected. Table 2-4 lists the valid line numbers for the FRSM and MPSM cards. The optional <interface_type> parameter applies only when you are using the FRSM-HS2/B card with the 12IN1-8S back card. The default interface type for the 12IN1-8S back card is V.35. To specify the interface type as X.21, replace the <interface_type> with a value of 2.

Overview of Frame Relay Port Configuration The Bringing Up Lines section that appears earlier in this chapter describes how to bring up physical lines by specifying the correct line port number. Line ports correspond to the line connectors on the back cards of Cisco MGX 8230, Cisco MGX 8250, Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1), Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1E/PXM45), or Cisco MGX 8830 switches. Bringing up a line establishes physical layer connectivity between two network devices. When you add a Frame Relay port to a line, you enable Frame Relay communications by means of that line. Regardless of the card type or physical characteristics of a port (speed, timeslots, and so on), each port can be configured as the following: Frame Relay port. This is a port that sends and receives standard Frame Relay frames as defined by ITU-T Q.922. Multiple virtual circuits (VCs) can terminate on a single Frame Relay port and are differentiated by their data-link connection identifiers (DLCIs). Frame-based user-network interface (FUNI) ports. This is a port that sends and receives standard FUNI frames. Based on the three modes of ATM DXI, FUNI was developed to provide an ATM UNI in a frame format similar to Frame Relay frames. FUNI frames use the SAR functionality found in the ATM network and does not use the interworking function (IWF) for mapping and encapsulation functions. Like a Frame Relay port, a FUNI port supports SVCs, fractional T1s, multiple virtual circuits (VCs) terminating on a single Frame Relay port and are differentiated by their data-link connection identifiers (DLCIs). Unlike ATM DXI, an ATM CSU/DSU is not required. 2-17

18 General FRSM and MPSM Provisioning Procedures Chapter 2 Frame Forwarding port. This is a port that sends and receives frame-based traffic that is similar to Frame Relay frames such as HDLC, SDLC, and X.25 over Frame Relay interfaces. Application examples include routers interconnected by means of PPP, mainframes or hosts connected by X.25/HDLC, SNA/SDLC links, and video CODECs that use a frame-based protocol. Frame Forwarding is often used for the aggregation of point-to-point (PPP) traffic into an ATM network, then exiting the ATM network through an ATM interface over multiple VCs into routers supporting PPP over ATM. Frame Forwarding features include: No translation or mapping is attempted between the frame header bits and ATM layer EFCI and CLP bits. Because the port is unable to read the address and control information in the frame, all traffic must be forwarded to a single destination frame forwarding port. Only one frame forwarding VC is allowed per port. If a connection is set up, all frames are routed to and from that connection, otherwise the frame is discarded. A single set of Frame Relay traffic access parameters (for example, CIR) is configured for the logical port in frame forwarding mode. All arriving frames are treated as if they arrived without a set DE bit. If the frame is determined to exceed committed rate (exceeding CIR), the CLP of all cells associated with that frame is set to indicate low priority. If the frame exceeds the total rate allowed for committed and uncommitted traffic, the frame is discarded. Support for PPP encapsulation over AAL5 and frame is based on RFC 1483 and RFC The FRSM-8T1-C, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM, and MPSM-8E1-FRM cards support channelized T1 or E1 Frame Relay ports. The channelized 8-port FRSM or MPSM cards can support up to 24 DS0 Frame Relay ports per T1 line and up to 31 DS0 Frame Relay ports per E1 line. At the customer premises site, a Frame Relay Access Device (FRAD) is attached to a time-division multiplexer (TDM) that aggregates multiple subrate traffic streams onto a single T1 or E1 line. Channelized ports are associated with one or more consecutive timeslots on the line. The FRSM-2CT3 card supports both channelized DS3 lines and channelized DS1 lines. Each channelized DS3 line supports 28 channelized DS1 lines providing a total of 56 channelized DS1 lines per card. Although each channelized DS1 line can support up to 24 DS0 Frame Relay ports per T1 line, the maximum amount of Frame Relay ports that can be configured per FRSM-2CT3 card is 256 logical ports. The FRSM-8T1 and FRSM-8E1 cards support fractional Frame Relay ports. On a fractional (unchannelized) FRSM, each line can support only a single port. The end-user equipment either uses the entire bandwidth of the T1 or E1 interface, or uses multiple timeslots on the T1 or E1 line. Like channelized Frame Relay ports, fractional ports are defined by consecutive timeslots on the line. The FRSM-HS2/B card supports serial Frame Relay ports. A serial port is associated with a single line, and its speed is defined by the line rate. Although a T3 or E3 line is not strictly serial, the FRSM-2T3E3 card supports port provisioning like other serial ports. Adding Frame Relay Ports To add a Frame Relay port to a line, perform the following steps: Step 1 Step 2 Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1 privileges or higher. Determine the line number on which you intend to add the Frame Relay port. To do so, enter the dsplns command for FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM, MPSM-8E1-FRM, FRSM-2CT3, and FRSM-HS2/B cards, or enter the dspds3lns command for FRSM-2T3E3 cards. 2-18

19 Chapter 2 General FRSM and MPSM Provisioning Procedures Step 3 Verify that the port number you want to use is not already in use. To display a list of the configured ports on a FRSM or MPSM card, enter the following command: PXM1E_SJ.1.30.FRSM.a > dspports Port Ena/Speed EQServ SignalType T391 T392 N391 N392 N393 Type Alarm ELMI Ratio Add/1536k 1 NoSignalling framerel No Off Add/1536k 1 NoSignalling framerel No Off Add/1536k 1 NoSignalling framerel No Off Add/1536k 1 NoSignalling framerel Yes Off Number of ports: 4 PortDs0UsedLine1: 0x00ffffff PortDs0UsedLine2: 0x00ffffff PortDs0UsedLine3: PortDs0UsedLine4: PortDs0UsedLine5: PortDs0UsedLine6: PortDs0UsedLine7: 0x00ffffff PortDs0UsedLine8: 0x00ffffff PortNumNextAvailable: 3 This example shows the command display for a FRSM-8T1-C card. This command displays all the port numbers configured on the FRSM card in the Port column. The port numbers in the Port column appear in the format slot.line.port, so the port number is the number that appears after the last period. When you add a port, you must specify a unique port number. For example, if port number 2 is assigned to line 2, you cannot use port 2 on any other line on that FRSM card. The MPSM-8T1-FRM, MPSM-8E1-FRM, FRSM-8T1-C, FRSM-8E1-C, and FRSM-2CT3 cards support multiple ports on the same line. You can add just one port per line for the FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8E1, FRSM-2T3E3, and FRSM-HS2/B cards. Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 To add a Frame Relay port to a FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, or FRSM-2CT3 card, enter the following command: PXM1E_SJ.1.30.FRSM.a > addport <port_num> <line_num> <ds0_speed> <begin_slot> <num_slot> <port_type> [lmi_autosense] Table 2-8 lists and describes the addport command parameters. To add a Frame Relay port to an MPSM-8T1-FRM or MPSM-8E1-FRM card, enter the following command: PXM1E_SJ.1.30.MPSM8T1.FRM.a > addport <port_num> <line_num> <ds0_speed> <begin_slot> <num_slot> <port_type> [lmi_autosense] LMI autosense on the MPSM-8T1-FRM or MPSM-8E1-FRM cards applies to Release 5.1 and above. Table 2-8 lists and describes the addport command parameters.

20 General FRSM and MPSM Provisioning Procedures Chapter 2 Table 2-8 Parameters for the addport Command Parameter or Option port_num line_num ds0_speed Description Port number for the Frame Relay service. The port number range varies with the card type: FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM range: FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8E1-FRM range: FRSM-2T3E3 range: 1 2 FRSM-2CT3 range: (Channelized T1s) FRSM-HS2/B range: 1 2 with HSSI back card FRSM-HS2/B range: 1 8 with 12IN1-8S back card Tip Since the non-channelized FRSM-8T1 and FRSM-8E1 cards support only one port per line, you might want to limit the port numbers to 1-8 for easier identification. On the FRSM-2CT3, FREEDM chip resources are distributed across the two DS3 lines. Use the dspfdminfo command to monitor the allocation of these resources when adding ports to the channelized DS1 lines. Line number to which the port definition applies. To display the lines that have been added, enter the dsplns or dspds3lns command. You cannot add a port to a line unless the Status/Coding column shows that the line is enabled (Ena). The line number range varies with the card type: FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM range: 1 8 FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8E1-FRM range: 1 8 FRSM-2T3E3 range: 1 2 FRSM-2CT3 range: 1-56 (Channelized T1s) FRSM-HS2/B range: 1 2 with HSSI back card FRSM-HS2/B range: 1 8 with 12IN1-8S back card This option applies only to FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM, MPSM-8E1-FRM, and FRSM-2CT3 (channelized T1) ports and sets the bit rate as either 56 Kbps or 64 Kbps for the DS0: 1 = 56 Kbps 2 = 64 Kbps When adding a port to an E1 line configured with CLEAR signalling, use only the 64 Kbps option. 2-20

Valid time slot numbers are: FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM, FRSM-2CT3 range: 1 24 FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8E1-FRM range: Tip With CAS line signalling: 2 16, (Slot 1 is reserved for framing and slot 17 is reserved for signalling) With CCS line signalling: 2 32 (Slot 1 is reserved for framing) With CLEAR line signalling: 1 The non-channelized FRSM-8T1 and FRSM-8E1 cards support fractional frame relay ports and only one port per line. If you want to use the full bandwidth of the line, you should enter 1 (for the FRSM-8T1 or FRSM-8E1 with CLEAR signalling) or 2 (for the FRSM-8E1 with CAS or CCS signalling) for the starting time slot. This option applies only to FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM, MPSM-8E1-FRM, and FRSM-2CT3 (channelized T1) ports and determines the number of consecutive DS0 time slots for this port within the T1 or E1 frame. Valid time slot numbers are: FRSM-8T1, FRSM-8T1-C, MPSM-8T1-FRM, FRSM-2CT3 range: 1 24 FRSM-8E1, FRSM-8E1-C, MPSM-8E1-FRM range: Tip With CAS line signalling: 1-30 With CCS line signalling: 1-31 With CLEAR line signalling: 32 The non-channelized FRSM-8T1 and FRSM-8E1 cards support only one port per line. If you want to use the full bandwidth of the line, you should enter the maximum time slot number (either 24, 30, 31, or 32). (E1 lines with CLEAR line signalling support only the full 32 time slots.)

22 General FRSM and MPSM Provisioning Procedures Chapter 2 Table 2-8 Parameters for the addport Command (continued) Parameter or Option lmi_autosense Description LMI autosense. With LMI autosense enabled the frame relay port will detect and configure its LMI signalling type to that of the LMI signalling type configured on the attached CPE. If LMI autosense is set to manual, the user must configure the LMI signalling type by using the cnfport or xcnfport commands. 1 = Manual (default) 2 = AutoSense LMI autosense is supported only on UNI frame relay connections, and the range of DLCIs supported is LMI autosense is supported on MPSM-8T1-FRM and MPSM-8E1-FRM cards in switches running Release 5.1 or higher. The following addport command example defines Frame Relay port 1 on T1 line 1 in slot 11 with LMI autosense. Because this is a non-channelized card, slots 1 through 24 are assigned to this port. PXM1E_SF.1.11.FRSM.a > addport The next addport command example defines Frame Relay port 1 on the channelized T1 line 1 in slot 30 with LMI autosense. Slots 1 through 4 are assigned to port 1.

Configuring Frame Relay Ports When Frame Relay ports are added some of the port parameters are in a default configuration which may or may not be compatible with the Frame Relay device to which you are connecting. When configuring a Frame Relay port, you must ensure that the devices at both ends of the connection are using the same port configuration parameters in order for communications to be successful. When configuring a Frame Relay port the cnfport command is used. Configuring the LMI signalling type can either be done manually, or by use of the LMI autosense option. With LMI autosense enabled the frame relay port will detect and configure its LMI signalling type to that of the LMI signalling type configured on the attached CPE. LMI autosense is supported on MPSM-8T1-FRM and MPSM-8E1-FRM cards in switches running Release 5.1 or higher. 2-23
