    OAM only works point-to-point over the fiber link. In addition to standard 802.3ah functions like loop back and dying gasp, FRM220-100M also implements OAM to provide complete provisioning of the remote fiber connected converter, without using Layer 3 IP protocol.

    <3> Gateway [ 10.1.1.254 ] The above shows the factory default TCP/IP settings for FRM220-100M(S). IP Address is the dotted/decimal format for the IPv4 address to remotely manage this device. The Subnet Mask defines the type of subnet the device will be on. The proper subnet setting will be defined by the network administrator.
  • Page 22: Converter Configuration

    <7> Unknown DA Unicast Storm Filter [ Disable ] The Converter configuration menu includes special features of FRM220-100M. This converter is capable of supporting Jumbo Frames (9k byte packets) when this option is enabled. Note that in order to support jumbo frames, the TP speed and duplex must match the FX.
  • Page 23 In Ethernet, QoS is dependent on VLAN tagged packets. This is because the QoS priority bits (3 bits) are included in the VLAN tag. Without VLAN tags, there are no priority bits, and no way to set QoS Priority. In FRM220-100M, QoS Priority is enabled by default, but if there are no VLAN tagged packets, the enabled setting is meaningless.
  • Page 24: Password Setting

    “p” from the main menu, next key in the old password and then key in the new password twice. If the password is lost or forgotten, FRM220-100M must be set to factory default by using the front panel push button. With the unit already fully booted, press the default pushbutton with a pencil or ball point pen tip and hold for 6 seconds, then release.

    3.2 Web Login 3.2.1 Introduction In an effort to make Networking devices easier to configure, many devices can now be configured via a Web Page, which should be familiar to all Internet users. The web page is accessed by the Default IP Address of the device from a Web Browser such as Internet Explorer or Firefox in the following way: 10.1.1.1/ (Assuming the Default IP Address is 10.1.1.1 ) Before accessing this device by web browser, the IP address must be known or it must be reset or changed to be used on the desired...

    3.2.4 System Information, Network Information The information displayed on this page gives specific device, network information, and port status for the local FRM220-100M and for any remote that is accessible via IEEE802.3ah OAM in-band management.
  • Page 28: System Information, Dd Information

    3.2.5 System Information, DD Information The DD or DDOM information is read from the MSA compliant SFP module and can be displayed via the web user interface. 3.2.6 Local Settings If you have reviewed section 3.1 of this chapter, then you will already be familiar with these settings and their actions. We will go through the settings here again, but not with as much detail.
  • Page 29 3.2.6.1 IP Configuration  Use this screen to set the TCP/IP configuration for the local unit. Note, that if you change the IP address you could lose remote management for this device. Remember to save settings under the “Tools” menu. 3.2.6.2 Password Setting  Key in the current password and type in the new password twice, then click the “Apply” button.
  • Page 30 3.2.6.3 Converter Configuration  All of these special functions are explained in Section 3.1.8 of this chapter. Select the proper radio buttons and the click the “Apply” button. Remember to save settings under the “Tools” menu.
  • Page 31 3.2.6.4 Port Configuration  This screen is for the configuration of the electrical Ethernet port (TP) and the optical port (FX). The options include enabling or disabling the port, setting auto or forced Ethernet mode, enabling 802.3X, and setting ingress and egress rate limiting. Note that rate limiting has a granularity of 64K so the rate can be set from 64k to 100M in 64K steps.
  • Page 32 3.2.6.6 RMON Counters  The counters have an accumulation of received bytes for each port (UTP, Fiber and Management) and more detailed distribution of those packets...
  • Page 33 3.2.6.7 VLAN Group Configuration  FRM220-100M supports up to 16 VLAN groups. By using the check boxes for each port, the access to different VIDs can be controlled.
  • Page 34 3.2.6.8 VLAN Per Port Configuration  In FRM220-100M there are actually three different ports, the external copper and fiber ports, plus the internal CPU port. The VLAN Per Port Setting page deals with how frames exit (egress) the copper, fiber and CPU (management). These are the Frame Egress Type. The following operations may be performed to the outgoing frames: <1>: Replace Tag The switch will remove VLAN tags from packets then add...
  • Page 35: Remote Settings

    3.2.7 Remote Settings When 802.3ah is active in both the local and remote unit (with fiber connection), the in-band management provides an embedded channel to control and configure the remote by using OAM (layer 2) Ethernet packets. The same settings available to the local unit are available under the Remote Setting menu, with the exception of password setting and Counters.
  • Page 36 3.2.8.1 802.3ah Configuration  To use the OAM functions, the 802.3ah Functions setting must be enabled. It is not enabled by default. The 802.3ah Mode is used to configure an OAM pair. In a pair, one unit must be ‘active’, while the other must be ‘passive’. We typically place the remote converter (CPE) in ‘passive’...
  • Page 37 3.2.8.2 Loop back Test  The loop back test is a non-intrusive test which uses OAM packets and will not affect normal transmissions. The number of OAM frames used (the number of times the loop back is done) is set by the Send Packet Number. The default is 1 packet. The Packet Length (Not including CRC) controls the packet size of the OAM frames used for loop back testing.
  • Page 38 3.2.8.3 802.3ah Status  The Global Config fields display the state of OAM, if OAM is enabled. We can also see the MAC addresses of the local and remote units in the OAM manageable pair. The Flags Field list the results of individual events based on the results of OAM protocol data units (OAMPDUs).
  • Page 39 Most information carried by OAMPDU is encoded using type-length-value (TLV) format. The first octet (or byte) of the OAMPDU indicates the type. This type is used to let the OAM client know how to decode the bytes containing the information. The next octet carries the length of the information.
  • Page 40: Tools

    One of the most critical problems in an access network for carriers is differentiating between a simple power failure at the customer premise and an equipment or facility failure. Dying gasp provides this information by having a station indicate to the network that it is having a power failure.
  • Page 41 3.2.9.1 System Reboot  When the converter is rebooted, all counters and registers are cleared and the converter starts fresh. If OAM is enabled, the discovery process will start. After selecting the System Reboot menu item, a confirmation dialogue box will pop up. Click “OK” to reboot the converter or click “Cancel”...
  • Page 42 3.2.9.3 Firmware Upgrade  If bugs are discovered, if functions are added, or if factory default settings are changed, the firmware in the converter will require upgrading. The only method to do upgrade for this converter is through the local Web (HTTP) user interface. The firmware image is uploaded from the browser (Post), it is checked for integrity, the flash is erased and then the flash is written with the new image.
  • Page 43: Logout

    3.2.10 Logout Logging out will ensure that the management session with FRM220-100M(S) is terminated. This is especially important if you are using a public computer to manage the device. Once logged out, a password must be entered to access FRM220-100M(S) again.
  • Page 44: Led Observations

    Fiber Port cage. Use a simplex patch cable (single fiber strand, LC to LC), route the SFP Tx back to the Rx optical connection. The FX LNK LED should light. For FRM220-100M, use a simplex patch cable (single fiber strand, SC to SC, ST to ST or FC to FC), route the Tx back to the Rx optical connection.
  • Page 45 With FRM220-100M reset to factory default, connect a PC and configure the PC to the 10.1.1.0 network (10.1.1.100 recommended). Use a PC to ping FRM220-100M at its factory default IP address of 10.1.1.1. With a direct connection to PC, there should be no time outs and ping latency should be less than 1 millisecond.
