13.1.1 What Is MPLS?
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is the technology that scales IP networks for service providers. MPLS is a technique that allows the forwarding of packets based on labels. In a normal IP network, the packets are switched based on the destination IP address. In an MPLS network, the packets are switched based on labels.
MPLS provides mechanisms for IP Quality of Service (QoS) and IP traffic engineering (TE). MPLS is the industry standard on which label switching is based. The label identifies where to forward the packets and instructs the routers and switches in the network. Forwarding of MPLS packets is based on pre-established IP routing information.
MPLS enables service providers to offer additional services, including VPNs, improved TE, QoS, Layer 2 tunneling, and multiprotocol support, to their enterprise customers. There are two ways to set up an MPLS infrastructure:
•LDP
•MPLS-TE
LDP differs from MPLS-TE in terms of the protocol used to distribute the labels along the path. LDP uses Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) whereas MPLS-TE uses Resource Reservation Protocol-Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) to distribute the labels. LDP and RSVP-TE uses Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) as the routing protocol.
13.1.2 What Is MPLS-TP?
MPLS-TP is a carrier-grade packet transport technology that enables the move from SONET and SDH time-division multiplexing (TDM) to packet switching. MPLS-TP enables MPLS to be deployed in a transport network and to operate similarly to existing transport technologies. MPLS-TP enables MPLS to support packet transport services with a degree of predictability that is similar to the existing transport networks.
The goal of MPLS-TP is to provide connection-oriented transport for packet and TDM services over optical networks leveraging the widely deployed MPLS technology. Operations, administration, and maintenance (OAM) and resiliency features are defined and implemented in MPLS-TP to ensure:
•Scalable operations
•High availability
•Performance monitoring
•Multidomain support
•Carrier-grade packet transport networks
MPLS-TP can be carried over the existing transport network infrastructure. MPLS-TP defines a profile of MPLS targeted at transport applications and networks. This profile specifies the MPLS characteristics and extensions required to meet the transport requirements.

13.1.3 What Is the CPT System?
The CPT System is the first Packet-Optical Transport System (P-OTS) built on standards-based MPLS-TP technology. The CPT System unifies both packet and transport technologies, giving a strong foundation for next-generation transport. The CPT System is designed to support transport applications so that service providers can continue to offer existing transport services while enabling new packet services.
The existing transport networks must be migrated from TDM networks to packet transport networks because the packet-based services dominate the overall network traffic. Next-generation transport networks enable and support new mesh, multipoint, and multidirectional services. By deploying packet transport networks, you can benefit from:
•Statistical multiplexing
•Dynamic bandwidth allocation
•QoS
Note CPT System is displayed as "PT System" in the Prime Optical user interface.
The CPT System provides the following benefits:
•Ensures a smooth and efficient transition from TDM networks to packet transport networks
•Enables you to deploy new packet transport networks
•Provides architectural flexibility with support for:
–MPLS-TP
–IP/MPLS
–Carrier Ethernet transport
•Provides data plane and control plane flexibility in network deployments
•Enables service providers to provide the following for residential and business customers:
–Mobile back-haul
–Ethernet services
–TDM services

13.1.4 What Is Pseudowire?
A pseudowire (PW) is an emulation of a Layer 2 point-to-point, connection-oriented service over a packet-switching network (PSN).
Cisco Prime Optical 9.3.1 supports only the forwarding of the Ethernet frames from customer networks under Any Transport over MPLS (AToM).
Pseudowire is the technique used to transport these types of frames. It is the emulation of a native service over the MPLS network.

13.1.4.1 What Is an L2VPN Pseudowire?
A Layer 2 VPN (L2VPN) pseudowire is a tunnel established between two provider edge (PE) routers across the core carrying the Layer 2 payload encapsulated as MPLS data, as shown in Figure 13-1. This architecture helps the carriers migrate from Layer 2 networks such as Ethernet over MPLS (EoMPLS) to an MPLS core.
Dual-homed pseudowire is a pseudowire-protected circuit on which the destination point is split into two different nodes.
Figure 13-1 L2VPN Pseudowire
13.1.4.2 What Is L2VPN Multisegment Pseudowire?
An L2VPN multisegment pseudowire (MS-PW) is a collection of two or more PW segments that function as a single PW. It is also known as switched pseudowire. MS-PWs span multiple cores or autonomous systems of the same or different carrier networks. An L2VPN MS-PW can include up to 254 PW segments.
The L2VPN MS-PWs feature enables you to configure two or more Layer 2 pseudowire segments that function as a single pseudowire. The end routers are called terminating provider edge routers (T-PEs) and the switching routers are called switching provider edge routers (S-PEs). The S-PE router terminates the tunnels of the preceding and succeeding PW segments in an MS-PW. The S-PE router can switch the control and data planes of the preceding and succeeding PW segments of the MS-PW. An MS-PW is declared to be up when all single-segment PWs are up.
Figure 13-2 Multisegment Pseudowire
13.1.5 What Is an EVC?
An Ethernet Virtual Circuit (EVC) is a logical relationship between Ethernet User-Network Interfaces (UNIs) in a provider-based Ethernet service. An EVC is the service offered and is carried through the service provider network. Each EVC is configured by its unique name across the service provider network.
An EVC is an end-to-end representation of a single instance of a Layer 2 service that a service provider offers and represents the different parameters based on which the service is offered. An EVC prevents data transfer between sites that are not part of the same EVC. The instance of a specific EVC service on the physical interface of each network device through which the EVC passes is called an Ethernet Flow Point (EFP).
An EVC is the A-Z circuit that enables you to pass customer VLANs from one port on a node to another port on another node in the network. In the CPT System, an EVC represents a Carrier Ethernet service and is an entity that provides an end-to-end connection between two or more customer endpoints.
The global EVC attributes are:
•EVC ID—EVC ID is the associated EVC which the EFP is part of.
•EVC Type—E-Line, E-LAN, or E-Tree.
•List of associated EFPs that belong to an EVC.

•How Do I View or Modify an EVC?
•How Do I Delete an EVC?
•How Do I Trace an EVC?
•Understanding the EVC Cross-Connections Table
13.1.6 What Is CPT System QoS?
CPT System QoS classifies each packet in the network based on one of the following:
•Ethernet Class of Service (CoS)
•IP precedence
•IP Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP)
•MPLS experiment (MPLS EXP) bits.
After the packets are classified into class flows, additional QoS functions can be applied to each packet as it traverses the CPT System.
Policing provided by the CPT System ensures that the attached equipment does not submit more than a predefined amount of bandwidth into the network. The policing feature can be used to enforce the committed information rate (CIR) and the peak information rate (PIR) available to a customer at an interface. The policing action is applied per classification.
Marking can set the Ethernet CoS, IP precedence, or IP DSCP bits when packets enter the CPT System. For MPLS traffic, marking sets MPLS EXP bits when the packets leave the system. The marking feature operates on the outer IEEE 802.1p tag, IP precedence, or IP DSCP bits and provides a mechanism for tagging packets at the ingress. The subsequent NEs can provide QoS based only on this QoS indicator.
Per-class queuing allows various queuing applications to support service-level agreements. The CPT System uses a combination of Strict Priority Queuing (SPQ) and Weighted Round Robin (WRR) scheduling to guarantee throughput and latency requirements and to provide fair access to excess network bandwidth.

•How Do I Provision QoS Objects in the CPT System?
13.1.7 What Is an LSP?
A Label Switched Path (LSP) is the path that a label takes to pass through a network. An LSP consists of a unidirectional sequence of hops in which a packet travels from one network device to another by means of label switching mechanisms. LSPs can be established statically and dynamically.
In Prime Optical 9.6.3, only static LSP can be established.

•How Do I Modify an LSP?
•How Do I Trace an LSP?
13.1.8 What Is BFD?
Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is a path-failure detection protocol that provides a low-overhead, short-duration method of detecting failures in the forwarding path between two adjacent routers. BFD is enabled at the interface level; it detects failures on interfaces, data links, and forwarding planes and notifies the MPLS-TP server. Prime Optical supports BFD asynchronous mode, which depends on sending BFD control packets between two systems to activate and maintain BFD neighbor sessions between routers.
To create a BFD session, you must configure BFD on both systems (or BFD peers). After you enable BFD on the interfaces:
•A BFD session is created.
•BFD timers are negotiated.
•BFD peers begin sending BFD control packets to each other at the negotiated interval.
BFD provides continuity checks to enable MPLS-TP LSPs to detect forwarding failures between two adjacent routers. When BFD is enabled on the MPLS-TP tunnel interface, the MPLS-TP client creates separate BFD sessions for working and protect LSPs. A single set of BFD timers is configured on the tunnel that applies to both the working and protect LSPs.

13.1.9 What Is an EFP?
Traffic for a service must pass through several switches in the service provider network to connect customer sites across that network. An instance of a specific EVC service on the physical interface of each network device through which the EVC passes is called an Ethernet Flow Point (EFP). An EFP is a logical demarcation point of an EVC within a node on an interface, and it can be associated with a bridge domain.
The main purpose of configuring an EFP is to recognize the traffic belonging to a specific EVC on an interface. Configuring the EFP also applies forwarding behavior and features specific to that EVC, because multiple EVCs can pass through one physical interface.
The CPT System can have EFPs on all ports of the PTF_10GE_4 card, PT_10GE_4 card, or PTSA_GE panel. The EFP administrative state (Up or Down) maps to the EFP administrative state in the Cisco IOS Software.
The key attributes of an EFP are:
•Encapsulation string—Defines the classification criteria for an incoming packet.
•Forwarding operation—Defines the forwarding operation to be applied on frames that belong to the EFP.
•Ingress rewrite operation—Defines the rewrites to be performed on the frames that belong to the EFP before proceeding with the forwarding operation.
•Egress rewrite operation (outgoing encapsulation)—Defines the rewrites to be performed on the frames being transmitted out of the EFP.

•How Do I Add a Drop?
13.1.10 What Is a Bridge Domain?
A bridge domain is an Ethernet broadcast domain internal to a device. The bridge domain enables you to decouple a VLAN from a broadcast domain. The bridge domain has one-to-many mapping with EFPs. All EFPs in a node for a specific EVC are grouped using the bridge domain. If EFPs belong to the same bridge domain and have the same bridge domain number, the EFPs receive traffic even if they have different VLAN numbers.
The bridge domain number is local to the node. Different nodes of an EVC can have the same or a different bridge domain number. However, the bridge domain number is unique for an EVC within a node. For an EVC, the bridge domain number range is from 1 to 16384.

•How Do I View or Modify an EVC?
13.1.11 What Is IGMP Snooping?
As networks increase in size, multicast routing becomes critically important as a means to determine which segments require multicast traffic and which do not. IP multicasting enables IP traffic to be propagated from one source to a number of destinations or from many sources to many destinations. Rather than one packet being sent to each destination, one packet is sent to the multicast group identified by a single IP destination group address.
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping restricts flooding of multicast traffic by sending multicast traffic only to the interfaces that are subscribed to a particular multicast group. The CPT System can use IGMP snooping to constrain the flooding of multicast traffic by dynamically configuring Layer 2 interfaces, so that multicast traffic is forwarded to only those interfaces associated with the IP multicast devices. IGMP snooping requires the CPT System to snoop on the IGMP transmissions between the host and the router and to keep track of multicast groups and member ports.
When the CPT System receives an IGMP report from a host for a particular multicast group, the CPT System adds the host port number to the forwarding table entry. When it receives an IGMP leave group message from a host, it removes the host port from the table entry. It also periodically deletes entries if it does not receive IGMP membership reports from the multicast clients.
The CPT System forwards periodic general queries received from the multicast router in the bridge domain where IGMP snooping is enabled. All hosts interested in this multicast group send join requests and are added to the forwarding table entry. The CPT System creates one entry per bridge domain in the IGMP snooping IP multicast forwarding table for each group from which it receives an IGMP join request.
The IP multicast groups learned through IGMP snooping are dynamic. If a port interface, EFP, or bridge domain state changes, the IGMP snooping-learned multicast groups from this port, EFP, or bridge domain are deleted.

•How Do I View or Modify an EVC?
13.1.12 What Is MVR?
Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) is a Layer 2 IP network protocol that enables multicast traffic from a source VLAN to be shared with subscriber VLANs. MVR is designed for applications using wide-scale deployment of multicast traffic across an Ethernet ring-based service provider network; for example, the broadcast of multiple television channels over a service provider network. MVR allows a subscriber on a port to subscribe to (and unsubscribe from) a multicast stream on a network-wide multicast bridge domain. It allows the single multicast bridge domain to be shared over the network while subscribers remain in separate bridge domains.
MVR provides the ability to continuously send multicast streams to subscribers on the multicast bridge domain. It also isolates the streams from the subscriber bridge domains for bandwidth and security reasons. MVR assumes that the subscriber ports subscribe (join) and unsubscribe (leave) these multicast streams by sending out IGMP join and leave messages. These messages can originate from an IGMP version 1-, version 2-, or version 3-compatible host with an Ethernet connection. Although MVR operates on the underlying mechanism of IGMP snooping, the two features operate independently of each other. One feature can be enabled or disabled without affecting the behavior of the other feature. However, if IGMP snooping and MVR are both enabled, MVR reacts only to join and leave messages from multicast groups configured under MVR. IGMP snooping manages join and leave messages from all other multicast groups.
The CPT System identifies the MVR IP multicast streams and their associated IP multicast group in the forwarding table. It intercepts the IGMP messages and modifies the forwarding table to include or exclude the subscriber as a receiver of the multicast stream, even though the receivers might be in a different bridge domain from the source. This forwarding behavior selectively allows traffic to cross between different bridge domains.
The CPT System supports the dynamic mode of MVR operation. In the dynamic mode, multicast data received by MVR source EFPs on the CPT System is forwarded only to those MVR receiver EFPs that have joined through IGMP reports. You must configure EFPs as MVR receiver and source EFPs. Receiver EFPs and source EFPs can be on different CPT cards. Multicast data sent on the multicast bridge domain is forwarded to all MVR receiver EFPs across the CPT System. By default, a CPT System has no source or receiver EFP. If a CPT card fails or is removed, only those receiver EFPs belonging to that CPT card will not receive the multicast data. All other receiver EFPs on other CPT cards continue to receive the multicast data.

13.1.13 What Is LACP?
Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is a control protocol over link aggregation (LAG) that enables checking for LAG misconfigurations. LACP is part of the IEEE 802.3ad standard that enables you to bundle several physical ports together to form a single logical channel. LACP enables a network device, such as a switch, to negotiate an automatic bundling of links by sending LACP packets to the peer device.
LACP enables you to form a single Layer 2 link automatically from two or more Ethernet links. This protocol ensures that both ends of the Ethernet link are functional and agree to be members of the aggregation group. To be operational, LACP must be enabled at both ends of the link.

Ingress Policing
|
Allows you to configure ingress policing.
Policing provides a means to limit the amount of bandwidth that the traffic traveling through a given port or a service instance can use. Policing works by defining an amount of data that the router is willing to receive in kilobytes per second (KB/s). When policing is configured, it limits the flow of data through the router by dropping or marking down the QoS value.
When policing is configured, traffic is placed in one of the following categories:
•Conform
•Exceed
•Violate
You can decide the action to be applied from the following three categories:
•Packets that conform can be configured to be transmitted.
•Packets that exceed can be configured to be sent with a decreased priority.
•Packets that violate can be configured to be dropped.
|
Egress Shaping
|
Allows you to configure egress shaping.
Traffic shaping allows you to control the traffic going out of an interface in order to match its flow to the speed of the remote target interface and to ensure that the traffic conforms to policies contracted for it.
You can use shaping to meet downstream requirements, thereby eliminating bottlenecks in topologies with data-rate mismatches. Shaping is the process of delaying packets in queues to make them conform to a specified profile.

This section describes the following:
•Understanding CPT Cards
•Overview of the CPT System Property Sheet
•Understanding the CPT System Alarms
13.9.1 Understanding CPT Cards
Note CPT System is displayed as "PT System" in the Prime Optical user interface.
The CPT System is supported on the CPT 200 and CPT 600 chassis. The CPT 200 chassis consists of two service slots and has a 160-GB switch capacity. The CPT 600 chassis consists of six service slots and has a 480-GB switch capacity.
The following are the CPT cards:
•PTF_10GE_4—See Slot Properties—PTF_10GE_4.
•PT_10GE_4—See Slot Properties—PT_10GE_4.
The PTSA_GE panel is a standalone unit and can be connected to the PT System. The PTSA_GE panel enables the number of ports to be scaled on the CPT System. For more information, see Slot Properties—PTSA_GE.
PTF_10GE_4 and PT_10GE_4 cards are supported on the CPT 200 and CPT 600 platforms. The CPT System complies with RoHS-6 standards.
The following system configuration is recommended on the CPT 200 shelf:
•Standalone PTF_10GE_4 card
•Standalone TNC, TNCE, TSC, or TSCE card
•One or more PTSA_GE panels
The following system configuration is recommended on the CPT 600 shelf:
•Redundant PTF_10GE_4 cards
•One PT_10GE_4 card
•Redundant TNC, TNCE, TSC, or TSCE cards
•One or more PTSA_GE panels
The CPT System integrates DWDM, OTN, Ethernet, and standards-based MPLS-TP in a single system. The CPT System also integrates with other Cisco platforms such as the ONS 15454, and Carrier Routing System to deliver a combined IP/MPLS and MPLS-TP solution under a single control plane, forwarding mechanism, and NMS. This solution enables you to interoperate with existing IP/MPLS networks.
The CPT System works in the metro edge and access portion of the network, providing an integrated packet and transport solution. The CPT System significantly reduces rack space and power consumption.

13.9.2.9 Timing
A separate external TDM circuit is required to provide synchronized timing to multiple remote NEs for packet transport networks such as the CPT System. The Synchronous Ethernet (SycnE) feature addresses this requirement by providing effective timing to the remote NEs through a packet network without using an external circuit for timing.
The Timing property allows you to configure SyncE ports.
