10-2 Appendix A: Data communications planning

The Data Communications Network Planning Guide, NTR710AM provides
information on DCN planning for some OSI-based Nortel Networks products.
This guide includes general information on OSI data communications and
addressing and can be used as a reference for OSI data communications
information.

Introduction

OME6130 is an IP managed optical network element (NE), which has the
capabilities to communicate through both TCP/IP Internet Protocol (IP) and
OSI Connectionless Network Protocol (CLNP) based networks.
Connectivity of the OME6130 network element to its management system can
be achieved through:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Depending on the network topology, the OME6130 can be configured to
operate as either:
•
•
The OME6130 can use integrated IS-IS (iIS-IS) protocol with auto-tunneling
in order to establish communications with OSI based network elements.
OME6130 supports Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) which can tunnel
IP management communications into OSI Protocol Data Units (PDU). The
GRE tunnel can be terminated on an OME6130, other GRE capable NE, or a
dedicated router to extract the IP management communications before being
forwarded to the management system.

an IP router: IP communications are routed using static and/or dynamic
routing protocol to subtended NEs
an IP host: IP communications are not forwarded to other NEs with static
routing entries providing default routing to the connected IP router.
