Equipment and Port Configuration SFP Pluggable Modules
MiTOP, MiRIC and MiRICi SFP Management Access
ML supports RAD's MiTOP-E3/T3, MiRIC and MiRIC SFP modules. MiTOP-E3/T3 is a
finger-sized, small form pluggable module that enables transport of "TDM over PSN”
technology and requires comprehensive configuration of PWE data path. The MiTOP device
can be configured in one of two ways:
1. Full configuration using a Dongle SFP Configuration Adaptor (DSFP-CA) unit
2. Inserting MiTOP SFP to ML unit SFP socket and setting the IP address and VLAN
parameters via a local MetaASSIST View connection followed by a full attribute
configuration via Web access session (can be opened via the MetaASSIST View) (see
MiTOP Configuration via MetaASSIST View (on page 4-11)).
This section describes the IP Address configuration (without a Dongle) via MetaASSIST
View and provides a summary of the recommended MiTOP SFP and ML configuration
parameters for Actelis applications, along with a detailed example.
Note the following:
Remote management connection attributes can only be configured on MiTOP-E3/T3 SFP
module(s) for units plugged into the appropriate ML SFP socket (port should support
1000Full-duplex mode). These attributes cannot be configured in advance and are not
stored in the ML for retrieval if the module is removed.
If a (plugged in) MiTOP-E3/T3 SFP module is not configured properly (i.e. insufficient
PWE path, duplicated IP, or other incompatible setting), you can use the RESTART
button to reset the SFP module to factory setting (then SFP must be reconfigured from the
beginning) or reset the SFP module with current setting to refresh the PWE path.
MiTOP Configuration References
For Actelis recommended MiTOP or MiRIC settings, refer to the MiTOP Configuration
tables MiTOP Configuration Table or Appendix J - MiRIC Configurations Table
For detailed explanation on how to configure MiTOP/MiRIC SFP, refer to RAD’s UM
(included in ML CD)
For T3/E3 link monitoring and troubleshooting, refer to RAD’s UM.
ML Service Configuration for MiTOP Support (Relevant for SDU-400 Only) - apply the
following configurations to the service carrying the E3/T3 traffic:
Set the service Shaper to Enabled
Set service rules attributes as follows:
CBS: 60,000 kbps for T3; 45,000 kbps for E3.
NOTE: In case the payload size is lower than the MiTOP default value of 256 bytes
(not recommended), CBS value may need to be increased.
EBS: 100,000
EIR=100
EBS=1632
