Note With the TDM2TDM service profile the TDM Clock source is fixed to Differential (RTP - Real Time Protocol is used); with the TDM2Eth service profile the TDM Clock source can be Differential (RTP - Real Time Protocol is used) or Adaptive (RTP is not used). In the unit it is not possible to have mixed configurations with service profiles using RTP and other service profiles not using RTP. Example: if in the unit only one E1 has service profile TDM2TDM it is possible to configure other E1 with service profile TDM2Eth only with the Differential clock source (not with the Adaptive clock source). If the Adaptive clock source is requested the E1 must be connected to another PDH unit. Figure 572. E1 Configuration 3DB18809AAAA Issue 1 809/980

When the NE is configured in this mode (default configuration), the Ethernet traffic is switched according to the destination MAC address without looking the VLAN. The packets from the user Ethernet ports having the VLAN ID out the allowed range (0 and 2-4080) are dropped. The packets having a VLAN ID already used for a TDM flow are accepted. Figure 590. 802.1D management 3DB18809AAAA Issue 1 827/980
VLAN 1 Management VLAN-ID 1 is automatically defined by the NE when the 802.1Q bridge type is selected. VLAN-ID 1 is shown to the operator, but it cannot be neither changed nor deleted. All the user Ethernet ports (enabled and disabled) and all the radio ports are members of the VLAN 1. In egress VLAN-ID 1 is always removed from all the ports. When the NE is configured in this mode, the management of Ethernet traffic looking the VLAN is enabled. In this mode, one VLAN will be assigned to all Ethernet frames inside the MPR network. ADD VLan: to create a new VLAN (refer to Figure 592 - VLAN management) EDIT VLan: to change the parameters of a VLAN (VLAN name, VLAN member ports, VLAN untagged ports in egress). By clicking Next the Port VLan configuration screen opens (Figure 593). DEL VLan: to delete a VLAN-ID. It is possible to remove a VLAN-ID from the VLAN-ID table even if this VLAN-ID has been already configured on one or more user ports as Port VLAN to be added in ingress to untagged frames. As consequence, the VLAN-ID=1 and PRI=0 are added to the untagged frames received on this port. Before applying this deletion, a confirmation of the operation is shown to the operator. Figure 591. 802.1Q management 828/980 3DB18809AAAA Issue 1
[1] VLAN ID field: Enter the VLAN ID (the configurable values must be in the range 2-4080) N.B.: The VLAN IDs already defined to cross-connect internal flows (i.e. TDM2TDM, TDM2ETH) cannot be used. [2] VLAN Name field: Enter the VLAN Name: a text string of up to 32 characters. N.B.: There is no check on unambiguity name. [3] VLAN Ports field: Select the ports members of this VLAN by putting a check mark on the relevant check box. All the user Ethernet ports and all the Radio directions can be considered. Both enabled and disabled user Ethernet ports (radio ports when declared are implicitly enabled) can be member of a VLAN. This means that a disabled port can be configured as a member of a VLAN and a port already member of a VLAN can be disabled continuing to be a member of the same VLAN. [4] Untagged Ports field: Select, among the ports belonging to this VLAN (members), the untagged ports (in egress the VLAN will be removed from the frames). Only the user Ethernet ports, enabled and disabled, are manageable. The VLAN cannot be removed from the radio ports (with the exception of the VLAN 1). N.B.: The VLAN-ID values allowed are in the range 2-4080. By default, for the VLAN IDs defined, all the ports are members and the Untag flag is set to False, which means all the frames are transmitted with Tag. N.B.: Tagged frames If one tagged packet with VLAN-ID X is received on a port which is not member of the VLAN- ID X, the packet is dropped. Figure 592. VLAN Management 3DB18809AAAA Issue 1 829/980
The untagged frames, received on each user Ethernet port (port 1 to 4, and port 5 if the optical SFP plug-in has been installed and configured), can be Accepted or Discarded. If the untagged frames are accepted, the VLAN-ID and Priority fields must be configured. Only VLAN-ID values already defined (in the VLAN management menu) can be configured for this purpose. The Priority values allowed are in the range 0-7. The default Port VLAN-ID and Priority values are: VLAN-ID=1; Priority=0. VLAN 1 is always removed, when the frame is forwarded. Figure 593.

6 Maintenance and Trouble-clearing 6.1 Introduction This section contains information and procedures to aid in restoring the equipment to its proper operating condition after it has been determined that a problem exists. The following warnings and cautions apply while operating, performance testing, troubleshooting, or repairing the 9500 MPR-E series radios. Short circuits in low-voltage, low-impedance dc circuits can cause severe arcing that may result in burns or eye injury. Remove rings, watches, and other metal jewelry while working with primary circuits. Exercise caution to avoid shorting power input terminals. Units with the electrostatic-sensitive (ESS) symbol contain ESS devices. Store these units in an antistatic container when not in use, and anyone handling a unit should observe antistatic precautions. Refer to the Special Precautions pages in the front of the instruction book for detailed handling information. Note Ensure that all antennas are properly aligned and waveguide is in good physical condition. Note Before performing procedures that might in any way affect transmission, it is recommended that the person performing the procedure understand the Rules and Regulations pertaining to the equipment and be properly authorized to operate the equipment.
