VLAN TAG Attributes

1. In L2 ETH switching, L2 traffic can be engineered using the VLAN TAG

attributes

2. L2 traffic is controlled by defining port membership: Access or Trunk

3. Together, port membership + L2 traffic engineering convert

connectionless to connection-oriented network

4. In such networks, services are better deployed and maintained

5. VLAN TAG attributes include:

• VLAN ID (12 bits)
• Priority Bits (3 bits)

5. Additional attributes may be used to engineer traffic:

• MAC DA
• Port number

3 Proprietary and Confidential

Access Port

• Access Port is a port which is aware of a single VLAN only

• Ingress traffic is expected to be Untagged, e.g. – no VLAN

information exists within the received Ethernet frame

• All frames that are received through this port are tagged with
default VLAN (VID + P bits)

• All frames that exit through this port towards customer devices are
untagged (VLAN is removed)

• Users can configure the L2 switch to assign different tagging

scenarios to different ports

significantly with time and environment.

This phenomenon indicates that static transmission power

power, transmission range

ATPC – Adaptive Transmission Power Control

To address this issue, online transmission power control that adapts to
external changes is necessary.

In ATPC, each node builds a model for each of its neighbors, describing the
correlation between transmission power and link quality.

With this model, we employ a feedback-based transmission power control

algorithm to dynamically maintain individual link quality over time.

MRMC Adaptive TX Power

MRMC Adaptive TX Power

Designed to work with ACM in certain scenarios to allow higher Tx power
available at lower order modulation schemes for a given modulation scheme.

When Adaptive TX is disabled:

Maximum TX power is limited by the highest modulation configured in the MRMC ACM
script.

In other words, when link suffers signal degradation, modulation may change from
256QAM to QPSK. However, Max. power will be limited to the value corresponding as
Max. TX in 256QAM.

When Adaptive TX is Enable:

When link suffers signal degradation, modulation may change from 256QAM to QPSK.
However, Max. power will increase to compensate for the signal degradation.

“Automatic State Propagation” ("GigE Tx mute override") enables propagation of radio
failures back to the line, to improve the recovery performance of resiliency protocols
(such as xSTP).

The feature allows the user to configure which criteria will force GbE port (or ports in case
of “remote fault”) to be muted / shut down, in order to allow the network find alternative
paths.

ii. Enable WEB CA certificate.

• 4. Set WEB Protocol parameter to HTTPS

Proprietary and Confidential

HTTPS – Public Key Upload

The public key should be uploaded by the user for generating the IDU’s
digital certificate:

• The upload will be done by using FTP/SFTP (s

• The public key file will be in PEM format.
• Click “Upload Public Key”
• The status of the “upload” operation can be monitored. The returned status

HTTPS – Certificate Download (1)

Download IDU server certificate and/or IDU CA certificate (optional) :

• Download is done by using FTP/SFTP.

• PEM and DER certificate formats are supported.
• For downloading the IDU server certificate and/or IDU's CA certificate to the system, the
following steps must be fulfilled for each file type:

Determine certificate file name (“Admin” privilege).

Determine the certificate file type (“Admin” privilege): “Target Certificate” (for WEB
server digital certificate) or “Target CA certificate” (for WEB CA digital certificate).

Determine certificate file format (“Admin” privilege): Format could be PEM (for PEM
formatted file), or DER (for DER formatted file).

Determine whether to include the
CA certificate into the WEB configuration
definitions. This is an optional configuration
and is recommended for adapting the
WEB interface to all the WEB browsers
applications (“Admin” privilege).

Proprietary and Confidential

HTTPS – Certificate Download (2)

After setting the above configurations, a “Download Certificate” command
should be issued.

The status of the download operation can be monitored. The returned status
values are: “ready”, “in-progress”, “success”, “failed”.

It is recommended to “refresh” the WEB page when certificate download

operation is terminated.

To apply the new certificate, the WEB server should be restarted (“Admin”
privilege). WEB server will be automatically restarted when it is configured to
HTTPS.

(cannot be both at the same time).

While switching to HTTPS mode, the following must be fulfilled:

• WEB server certificate file exist.
• Certificate public key is compatible to IDU’s private key.
• If one of the above tests fails, the operation will return an appropriate error
indication.
• Open WEB Browser and type the URL ”https:\\<IP of target IDU>”.

General
This guide explains how to work with the FibeAir® IP-10 web based License Management System.
The system enables authorised users to obtain license-related information and perform license-related
operations.

Getting Started
To start the management application:

1. In your web browser, go to the address http://80.74.99.83/LMManage/login.aspx

2. To log in to the system, enter your user name and password, and then click Login.
Note the following user name rules:

FibeAir® IP-10 License Management System Page 206 1

 For Demo OEM, the first five digits must be 00001. The next four digits after the first five should
be numbered starting with 0001 for end users. For example, the number 000010001 would mean
that Demo OEM end user 0001 is entering the system.
For users other than Demo OEM, the user name must start with 00000. For example, the number
000000001 would mean that non-Demo OEM user 0001 is entering the system.

For OEM Users

3a. If you enter as an OEM user, the following web page appears:

One of two modes can be selected:

Administrator (Demo OEM option) - The administrator can assign licenses and devices to
customers, who can be either another OEM customer or Demo OEM. In this mode of operation,
the OEM admin can assign licenses/devices to end users (including themself) and can generate
license keys for the devices.
End User (Customer option) - The OEM end user, or the OEM itself can generate keys for self
use. In this mode, the user can only generate licenses based on the available device database.
The user can only view his/her own devices (that were assigned to that user) and licenses.

FibeAir® IP-10 License Management System Page 207 2

 End users that belong to that channel cannot see devices or licenses that belong to the OEM or other
customers.
After you select the operating mode, the following web page appears:

CeraView® User Guide Page 208 3

For Non-OEM Users

3b. If you enter as a non-OEM user the following web page appears:
Note that a channel or OEM user can also enter as one of their customers. In this case, the system
identifies the user as a channel/OEM user and will display a drop-down list to enable entry under the
user's name. This will be done to allow operations for devices that the user sent to his/her customers.

FibeAir® IP-10 License Management System Page 209 4

How to Use the System
The menus that you can select from are grouped according to their functions. Simply click the item you want
within a menu group (such as the Devices or Settings group).

When you select an item within a group, the relevant web page will open with the details concerning that
item.

At the top of the web page for the item, a line appears with buttons that you can click to perform a particular
operation.
