Highlights of NCE-T

Network visualization: Unified performance data collection and inventory management enable NCE to
detect network status in real time and support multi-dimensional data visualization and presentation in
reports.

Automatic deployment: NCE supports automatic deployment of CPE NEs and pre-provisioning of
service trails. Therefore, private line services can be provisioned quickly, like home broadband services.
The services are available 30 minutes later (most quickly) after CPEs are installed onsite, greatly
improving user experience in private lines.

Automated service provisioning: NCE provides the optical-connection bandwidth on demand (BoD)
function. Therefore, customers can perform agile provisioning of private line services, adjust bandwidth in
real time, specify the bandwidth calendar, multiple Service Level Agreements (SLAs), and application
latency policies.

Intelligent proactive O&M: NCE supports optical network survivability analysis, and allows you to
simulate network faults, analyze service robustness, identify network bottlenecks, and provide guidance
on precise network capacity expansion.

Scenario-specific interfaces: Based on the three-layer model (infrastructure layer, services layer, and
applications layer), NBIs provide multiple atomic services and a scenario-driven programmable platform,
support customized development of scenario-specific workflows, and implement automatic or semi-
8
automatic intent design, execution, and optimization processes.

Deployment Solution

Based on whether Huawei provides E2E support for software and hardware, NCE
supports three deployment modes:

In on-premises deployment scenarios, Huawei provides both software and hardware. In
other words, Huawei delivers the hardware and software required for NCE deployment and
completes E2E software and hardware configuration.

Generally, factory installation has been completed for NCE before delivery.

Deployment on private clouds means that customers prepare the bottom-layer
deployment environment according to the NCE configuration requirements and Huawei
installs the OS and NCE in this environment.

Deployment using EasySuite: In the on-premises and private cloud scenarios where factory
installation is not performed, EasySuite is used to install and deploy NCE.

42 Huawei Confidential
System Interconnection

Interconnecting with southbound systems: NCE is integrated with Huawei or
third-party systems to quickly access NEs or virtual resources and obtain NE
resources, alarm and performance data, and virtual resources required for
NCE service provisioning or assurance. This improves interconnection
efficiency.

SSO: an access control policy between NCE and its southbound systems or
between the upper-layer system and NCE. With a single login, users can
access all mutually trusted systems. This implements seamless O&M
interface interconnection between systems and improves O&M efficiency.

43 Huawei Confidential
System Settings

NTP time synchronization: NCE nodes are managed and maintained in a
unified mode. Therefore, the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) on each node
must be the same to ensure that NCE can properly manage services and
data on the nodes.

License management: Updating and maintaining a license allow the system
to properly run based on the features, versions, capacity, and validity period
authorized in a license file.

Remote notification: When O&M personnel are not on site due to business
travel or off duty and cannot query significant alarms and service reports,
remote notification is used to send SMS messages and emails to the O&M
personnel.
44 Huawei Confidential
System Monitoring

Global monitoring capability is supported to monitor NCE resource indicators
such as services, processes, nodes, and databases. This helps conduct
predictive analysis and detect potential risks in time. For key resources, the
O&M personnel can set thresholds to trigger alarms and handle exceptions
promptly.

45 Huawei Confidential
System Maintenance

System backup and restoration: Backs up and restores the dynamic data, OS, database,
management plane, and application software of NCE. Data is backed up in a timely manner. If
any backup object is abnormal, you can use the corresponding backup file to recover the
object to the normal state.

O&M management: Provides system maintenance and management functions to help O&M
personnel learn the health status of the system and reduce system risks. If a system fault
occurs, this function provides fault location information, which helps to rectify the fault and
reduce loss.

Online help: NCE provides a layered design for the GUI help adapting to user needs in diverse
scenarios. An online help system that supports anytime, anywhere, on-demand learning is
established. A variety of help forms such as tips, panels, question mark windows, and
Information Center are provided. All necessary information is directly displayed on the GUI.
Information that is closely related to the current operation is folded. You can unfold the


Optical network survivability
analysis is a process of simulating a
fault on a network resource to
check whether the remaining
resources meet service protection
requirements and identify the
services that will be interrupted or

98 Huawei Confidential
OVPN Overview (1)

Optical virtual private network (OVPN): Link resources on software-defined
networking (SDN) networks are sliced and specified link bandwidth is
reserved for users so that a logically independent private network can be
formed.

With the OVPN function, carriers can provide virtual private networks for
important enterprise customers. Without the need to construct their own
physical private networks, important enterprise customers can obtain high
security achieved by hard pipe isolation and sustainable service
development achieved by OVPN resource reservation. In addition, carriers
can use the OVPN function to flexibly sell link bandwidths, improving the
resource utilization of carriers' networks.

Basic Concepts of OVPN

Resource slicing

Resource slicing is resource division. Carriers allocate network-side resources to different OVPN users
based on OVPN user applications. The line-side resources allocated by carriers are ODUk resources,
and the minimum granularity is ODU0.

The line-side resources allocated to OVPN users are OVPN resources and can be used only by the
corresponding OVPN users. The line-side resources that are not allocated are shared resources (also
referred to as public network resources), and carriers can allocate these resources to other OVPN users
or services that do not use the OVPN function.

Resource adjustment

OVPN users apply for resources as required. If the resources that are applied for do not match the
actual resources, the resources can be dynamically adjusted.

When network resources of an OVPN user need to be expanded, the shared resources are allocated to
the OVPN user. When network resources of an OVPN user need to be reduced, the resources allocated
to this OVPN user are recycled as shared resources.

101 Huawei Confidential

Application Scenarios of OVPN

The OVPN function can virtualize transport networks to provide diversified bandwidth
services, improving user experience and bringing a new business mode for carriers.

OVPN Principles
Creating an OVPN
1. A carrier starts the OVPN app and allocates link resources to an OVPN
user according to the requirements of the OVPN user.
2. NCE delivers line-side resources planned by the carrier to a WDM device
using PCEP protocol messages.
3. The WDM device adds an OVPN ID for the corresponding link and floods
the OVPN ID to the entire network using the OSPF protocol.
4. After the carrier receives the resource adjustment request of the OVPN
user, steps 1 to 3 are repeated to adjust the network resources of the
OVPN user.
Provisioning services on the OVPN
1. A user starts the Optical Service Provisioning app and provisions services
on the specified OVPN.
2. NCE computes service routes based on the OVPN link resources and
delivers the computation result to the WDM device.
3. The WDM device generates the corresponding OVPN service.
