    With the power of Service Control, service providers have the ability to analyze, charge for, and control IP network traffic at multi gigabit wire line speeds. The Cisco Service Control solution also gives service providers the tools they need to identify and target high-margin content-based services and to enable their delivery.
  • Page 16: Service Control For Broadband Service Providers

    • Cisco Service Control Capabilities The core of the Cisco Service Control solution is the purpose-built network hardware device: the Service Control Engine (SCE).

    Data Collection The Cisco Service Control solution generates usage data and statistics from the SCE platform and forwards them as Raw Data Records (RDRs), using a simple TCP-based protocol (RDR-Protocol). The Cisco Service Control Management Suite (SCMS) Collection Manager (CM) software implements the collection system, listening in on RDRs from one or more SCE platforms and processing them on the local machine.

  • Page 29: The Sce 2000 Platform

    This chapter describes the possible deployment topologies of the SCE 2000. The Cisco SCE solution offers a number of basic topology options that permit the user to tailor the SCE platform to fit the needs of a particular installation. An understanding of the various issues and options is crucial to designing, deploying, and configuring the topology that best meets the requirements of the individual system.
  • Page 30: Information About Topology Considerations

    • Number of links — The SCE 2000 may be connected to one or two GBE links. This is relevant for both Inline and Receive-Only topologies.
  • Page 31: Redundancy

    Note that when the SCE 2000 is connected to the network through an optical splitter, a failure of the SCE 2000 does not affect the traffic flow, as the traffic continues to flow through the optical splitter.
  • Page 32: Information About Asymmetric Routing Topology

    Alternatively, the user may decide that the SCE 2000 functionality is sufficiently crucial to require severing the link if the SCE 2000 platform fails. In this case, when the SCE 2000 detects a failure that requires a reboot process for recovering, it immediately switches to Cutoff mode, stopping all traffic flow.
  • Page 33: Information About Physical Topologies

    Single Link: Inline Topology Typically, the SCE 2000 is connected in a full duplex GBE link between two devices (such as a router, or BRAS). When the SCE 2000 is installed as an inline installation, it physically resides on the data link...
  • Page 34 Information About Topology Information About Topology Considerations Dual link: Inline Installation In this topology, one SCE 2000 is connected inline in two full duplex, GBE links (Figure 3-2). In case the two links are load-shared, asymmetrical routing might occur, and some of the flows may be split, that is, the upstream packets of the flow go on one link, and the downstream packets go on the other link.
  • Page 35: Single Link: Receive-Only Topology

    In this topology, an optical splitter resides physically on the GBE link between the subscribers and the network (Figure 3-3). The traffic passes through the optical splitter, which splits traffic to the SCE 2000. The SCE 2000, therefore, only receives traffic and does not transmit. Figure 3-3...

If the two links are load-shared, asymmetrical routing might occur, and some of the flows may be split, i.e.

    3-5). The two SCE 2000s are cascaded, so the primary SCE 2000 processes the traffic of the two links, while the secondary SCE 2000 only bypasses the traffic of its links to the primary SCE 2000 for processing, and then bypasses the processed traffic back to the link. The two SCE 2000s also exchange keep-alive messages and subscriber state information.

  • Page 41: On-Failure Mode Parameter

    The Forwarding mode enables control of traffic flow and is not compatible with the non-operational status. In a single SCE 2000 topology, the value of this parameter is determined by whether or not the link can be completely cut when the SCE 2000 fails, or whether traffic flow should continue across the link in spite of platform failure.

    For each bracket, insert and tighten two appropriate screws to the rack. Step 5 Note Since the brackets support the weight of the entire SCE 2000 chassis, be sure to use all four screws to fasten the two rack-mount brackets to the rack posts. How to Attach a Chassis Ground Connection Before you connect the power or turn on the power to the SCE 2000 platform, it is required that you provide an adequate chassis ground (protective earth) connection for the SCE 2000 chassis.

    Powering Down an AC-Input Power Supply To power down an AC-input power supply to the SCE 2000 platform, complete the following steps: Make sure that the power supply unit is switched off before replacing it (NO hot-swap). Note that one Note AC-input power supply can be running when the other power supply is being removed or replaced.
  • Page 60: How To Remove The Power Supply Unit

    Step 3 Note When inserting a power supply into the SCE 2000 platform, do not use unnecessary force; slamming the power supply into the chassis can damage the connectors on the rear of the power supply. Seat the power supply in the SCE 2000 platform by tightening the captive installation screw with a Step 4 1/4-inch flat-blade screwdriver.

    4-17). The fan drawer is a field-replaceable unit containing five fans, and is installed at the right rear of the SCE 2000 platform. When a fan malfunctions, the fan module should be replaced as promptly as possible. Although it is possible for the unit to function for some time with one non-functioning fan, this is not optimal or recommended.
  • Page 64: Replacing The Fan Module

    Note How to Replace the Battery The SCE 2000 has a lithium battery on its main circuit board. When the battery loses its charge, call Cisco Technical Support to replace the battery. Do not attempt to replace this battery yourself There is danger of explosion if the lithium battery is incorrectly replaced.
