MPR User Guide
Service management with NEtO
You can use the NEtO to manage services on the 9500 MPR. The use of an external
element manager to change key network management information usually managed
by the 5620 SAM (such as service IDs, SAP or site information, or VLAN
information) could result in data loss or corruption. To avoid this problem, site
information is persisted so that management actions (such as moving service access
from one DS1 port to another) do not result in data loss. The 5620 SAM only takes
the following additional actions to accommodate service changes made using the
NEtO:
• A move between ports by the NEtO generates an alarm. The new port attachment
is discovered and the deleted port is retained. The user can copy provisioning
information to the new port in the 5620 SAM or manually reverse the change, if
required.
• A move between radio backhaul paths by the NEtO generates an alarm and is
accepted. The alarm message retains the old and new path information, allowing
the user to change the service back to its original form, if required.
• A move between radio and Ethernet backhaul paths by the NEtO generates an
alarm and is accepted. The alarm message retains the old and new path
information, allowing the user to change the service back to its original form, if
required.
• When using the NEtO to change VLAN IDs for a service, the new service is
discovered and alarms are generated for both services. An informational alarm is
generated for the new service, and a major alarm is generated for the old service.
• A clean up on the service deletes all new discovery alarms and old SAPs, and
accepts the new SAPs.
9500 MPRe support
The 9500 MPRe is the standalone, outdoor application of the MPT-MC and
MPT-HCv2 ODU, without a shelf unit. The 9500 MPRe provides fixed or mobile
Ethernet site backhauling and supports converged MPLS metro networks.
The 5620 SAM supports native management of the 9500 MPRe, R3.3 or later. As a
native NE, the 9500 MPRe appears on 5620 SAM maps and equipment managers.
All standard SNMP-based features, including discovery and alarms, are supported
with the same naming as the rest of the 9500 MPR family. Some features require a
cross-launch of the NEtO external element manager. See “9500 MPR/9500 MPRe
NEtO support”.
See Procedure 7-7 for information about configuring ports on the 9500 MPRe.
Note — The service changes from the NEtO in the preceding list are
not supported for ERPS (radio or fiber).
