3.2.17.3.1 Single NE Management
MWA allows the 7705 SAR-8 or 7705 SAR-18 and the MPR-e radios to which it is
connected to be integrated and managed as a Single NE. The following features are
part of Single NE management:
• One Management IP Address
• MPR-e Radio Configuration Management
• MPR-e Radio Alarm Management
• MPR-e Radio Software and Upgrade Management
• MPR-e Radio Configuration Database File Management
• MPR-e Radio Inventory and Microwave Link Performance Statistics
• MPR-e Radio Reset Control
• MPR-e Radio Mute Control
One Management IP Address
The individual management and IP address of the MPR-e radios are no longer
required for network management. When managing a microwave network
(consisting of a 7705 SAR-8 or 7705 SAR-18 that is connected to one or more
MPR-e radios) using an element/network manager, only the IP address of the
7705 SAR-8 or 7705 SAR-18 needs to be entered. This capability optimizes the
microwave network’s IP addressing plan.
MPR-e Radio Configuration Management
For an MPR-e configuration, the required MWA-specific parameters are configured
on the 7705 SAR side using the CLI and the required non-MWA parameters are
configured on the MPR-e side using the MCT.
The following MWA-specific parameters are configured on the 7705 SAR side:
• 1+1 HSB parameters
• Epipe VLAN SAP parameters (in a mixed microwave link scenario, where there
is interworking between a 7705 SAR MPR-e system and an MSS 9500 MPR
system using a TDM2Ethernet service, specific MPR-e system parameters are
configured under the Epipe VLAN SAP; for more information, refer to the
7705 SAR Services Guide, “Configuring Epipe SAP Microwave Link Parameters
for Interworking with TDM2 Ethernet”).
