This chapter introduces PM (Performance Management) application, which is provided with ViewlinX Manager, and

describes the major functions and features of the PM.

Overview


Overview

PM (Performance Management) is a performance management application that monitors and manages the

performance of the equipment in your network. The performance management program monitors

equipment to collect the performance data, analyzes the collected performance data, and saves the data in

database. The program also provides statistics information inquiry function that enables inquiring saved

data based on various conditions.

The PM function provided by ViewlinX basically collects data through monitoring the traffic between

equipment registered in PM. The PM function can collect the information according to the user’s need.

Users can inquire the traffic information collected by PM based on desired period of time or interval. The

inquiry result can be displayed on screen in graph or table, can be saved in file, or can be printed using

printer.

Even if equipment is not registered in PM, users can inquire performance data through real-time

monitoring function. The real-time monitoring function shows inquired performance data in table or

graph, and saves the data in file, but the function does not saves data in database. This function is usually

used to grasp the performance of equipment in real-time.

Redundancy Guide


Redundancy Guide

Redundancy is the redundant processor for preventing problem by operating 2 servers when server has some

problem. In ViewlinX, it separates Active Server and Standby Server by applying redundancy of 1 by 1.

Only Active Server is processing and Standby Server is standing by. If Active Server occurred problem,

Standby Server would sub for the role.

The direction is below Steps Procedures

1. Turn on Server1

2. ViewlinX>Redundancy

3. Put remained IP on ACS Server IP Address and assign Subnet mask

SNMP Community

A SNMP community is used to authenticate a network manager and its agents. For authentication, the

SNMP community of the network manager and the agent must be identical and encrypted. After the

process of authentication, they can send/receive management information.

There are two kinds of communities, read community and write community. The following table shows

the access right given to each community.

SNMP Community

Community Access Right

Read community When used, the value of an object is read-only. It is used to read the

value of a specific object saved in a MIB file.

Write community When used, the value of an object can be read and written. It is

used to change the value of a specific object saved in a MIB file.

MIB

A Management Information Base (MIB) is a collection of network objects that can be managed through

SNMP, i.e., a database of network management information. Network management is processed by

sending/receiving information on network objects between the network manager and the agents.

The NMS, the network manager, gets the status information for a specific object by retrieving the relevant

information from the MIBs provided by network devices and equipment on the network and controls

them by changing the values of objects. By changing the value of an object, it can not only change a

string and value in the MIB but also change the state of the network device or equipment and perform an

operation on the device or equipment. For example, it can block the entire communication through a

network device or equipment, block data transmission through a specific port of a device or equipment, or

reset a specific device or equipment by changing the corresponding MIB.

A MIB is logically composed in the format of a hierarchical tree structure, as shown in the following

figure. A location on the tree at which paths are branched is called ‘node’. A node has a parent node and it

can have one or more child nodes. When a node has no child node, it is called ‘leaf node’. Leaf nodes is

actual MIB object and has a value, thus, the read and write operations are possible on it.

Each node in MIB is identified by an Object Identifier (OID), which is in the format of ASN.1 (Abstract

Syntax Notation one). An OID consists of the names (or numbers) of all nodes from the top-most root

node and dotted decimals (.). For example, the OID of the sub-tree ‘mgmt’ is iso.org.dod.internet.

mgmt.mib-2 and also can be represented as ‘1.3.6.1.2.1’ simply. The OID of the ‘enterprise’ object is

‘1.3.6.1.4.1’.

The standard definitions of MIB-I and MIB-II are registered in the mib-2 (1) sub-tree. The mib-2 (1) sub-

tree is basically used to manage TCP/IP-based networks through SNMP protocols.

The MIB provided by Corecess itself is defined at the Corecess (2971) node under the ‘private (4)

enterprises (1)’ tree. Its OID is represented as ‘iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.corecess’ or

‘1.3.6.1.4.1.2971’.

MIB

User

User 8-11

When created, some MIB objects can be created with different values. In this case, each individual

creation of the MIB object is called ‘instance’. For example, the ‘iso.org.dod.internet.

mgmt.mib2.interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifDescr’ object is created for each interface of the network

equipment, thus, the number of instances of this object is same with that of interfaces of the network

equipment. While, only one instance of the ‘iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system. sysContact’ object

is created for each network equipment.

An instance number is used to read or write the value of an object. If there is only exists one instance for

an object, its instance number becomes ‘0’, as shown in the following line.

iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysContact.0

If there exist more than one instance for an object, the instance number is given starting from ‘1’, as

shown in the following line.

iso.org.dod. internet.mgmt.mib-2.interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifDescr.1

Chapter 9 ACS and AMR

This chapter describes ACS(Auto Configuration Server) and AMR(Automatic meter reading)

Corecess ACS


Corecess ACS

ACS function is to manage the firmware image and the configuration of Corecess’s equipments and it

offers users convenience for equipment’s operation and management.

The following is the brief on the ACS function.

The policy on Firmware image upgrade

The policy on the upgrade of configuration

Management on the configuration and the users

The administrator must be careful to apply the ACS function because this function has a plan to operate

the equipment. Also, the supported function may differs according to the Corecess’s products.

Ask Corecess technical support team for further more information

Corecess 3900 products’ recognition of the ACS server

CC3900 products are assigned the IP thorough the DHCP server. They regard the TFTP server’s address,

DHCP option field as the ACS server.

ACS server’s recognition of the target equipment to manage

Like the management of the general network, NMS(ACS server) should recognize the information on the

target equipment in advance(ex management IP). Like the SNMP protocol, an IP is used to access the

target equipment to manage in the IP-based network. ACS also uses an IP to access the target equipment

like this way.

Registration Packet

Corecess 3900 series products connected to ACS based on registration packet. To be managed by ACS

RG transmits the ‘Registration packet’ to the ACS server. In this case the Registration packet includes the

information that RG informs of the ACS server. The ACS server will manage the RG according to the

management policy after receiving the Registration packet.

Corecess 3900 transmits the Registration packet to the server in the following situation.

Booting up RG

Changing the IP information of RG

RG have to inform the RG’s configuration change of ACS server, etc

ACS receive the replicated ACS packet from already registered equipment or the equipment to register.

Comparing the information of the Registration packet with the existing one of the ACS server the ACS

server executes the configuration policy according to the policy set in the ACS server.

Corecess ACS

ACS and AMR 9-3

Operating ACS Server

Registration packet includes default properties of RG briefly. Comparing the existing information with

that of registration packet the server is operated as following procedures. Server receives registration

packet. ACS server works by following procedure after compare it with stored information.

ACS server can upgrade boot image and startup config file in specification equipment. With this

function ACS server can manage the startup config and boot image of registered

equipment.( keeping by version that aim startup config and boot image to equipment.)

The server verifies the information of RG coincident with MAC of registration saved in itself. If the

information of boot image differs, ACS server tries to do image upgrade of RG which transmits the

registration packet. If the information of boot image saved in the server coincide with that of

registration packet, the server correct only the revised information of registration packet. If new

boot image and saved boot image are different with testing registration packet, ACS server do

update new boot image.

After the comparative operation of information between registration packet and boot image is done,

the ACS server compares the information of registration packet with that of Startup config. If the

information of the server differs from that of the registration packet, ACS server updates startup

config to coincide startup config with that of the server.

If ACS server is set as above procedures, the administrator should configure startup config and boot

image of RG in the server. The following shows how to configure it

Starting ACS manager



If you choose ACS->RG list in the menu of ViewlinX, the following screen will show up.

1. Click the RG group to manage in the ACS tree.

2. Click the right button on the RG group(OLT name, port, module)

3. Click the Manage RG and the following window will show up.

Updating Configuration File

The initial configuration file name of the registered CC3900 series is ‘Startup config version’

(It may differ slightly depending on the products. Verify the initial configuration name of the product.)

Step by step

1. If you upload firmware image or startup configuration file, you choose files.

(If you choose the correct file is displayed in green text box)

2. Check RG update.

3. If you need to reset after updating check ‘upload & reset’ button.

4. Press Update button.

The above screen shows that 1 ea of CC3900 series registers to ACS connecting initially to the network.

If you check it with the file name in the Startup_config file, it’s not updated yet as running config file

name that the administrator set.

RG boots up the system according to the contents of the file described in the Startup_config. According to

administrator’s needs, the administrator may change startup_config_version with another file choosing

the reinitializing configuration file.

The newly set file is saved as the specified RG in ACS server, and ACS server check the RG periodically.

Above Startup_config management policy can be set in ACS server.



Change the startup_Config of 3900 series manually

1. Choose the equipment having a revised startup_config file in the list panel.

2. Click the button ‘select_config’ to choose the new startup_ config file that administrator has set.

3. Click ‘update config’ button to apply startup_config of the equipment.

4. In a while, if startup_config is applied to the server, the startup_config name of the equipment will be

saved as applied file name of the server.

Change the startup-config of CC3900 series manually In some cases, even though there is already an existing startup_config file, it’s necessary to revise this.

To do so, it’s necessary to send ACS server the information of applying the revised startup-config. The

‘Force’ check button in the right side of config file is used to give notification of applying revised startup-

config file to ACS server even though the startup_config is not default_config. To update the file of the

equipment already applied startup-config, choose the startup_config and click the ‘Force’ button.


ACS and AMR 9-7

Pre-Regist RG Startup Config RG can define beforehand startup-config regardless of registration packet. Procedure that define

beforehand RG ‘Startup config’ is as follows;

1. Click the RG to update and choose the check box.

2. Choose the Start Config File

3. To reset after uploading click the upload&reset.

4. Click the Update button.

Offset value of EPON MAC that is inquired RG's MAC and RG's high position equipment that is inquired

in ACS is difference. Difference of two MAC values is 8 and the MAC value that is inquired in ACS

increases 8.

The below picture is the information linked to port2 OLT slot 1in the ACS server.

The above information is displayed according to the information of registration packet such as boot image

information. The contents registered by registration packet are marked about ACS file, and operator can

manage cc3900's boot image and startup configuration.

User can check the boot image and startup config of equipment with using ACS server. and also

equipment different version administration is available .



1. Execute the command ‘boot image’ clicking ‘slot’ or ‘port’ with right button in ACS tree. If you click

the slot, you can see the list of RG linked to the slot. If you click the port, you can see the list of RG

linked to the slot-port.

2. Choose the RG of the list to revise boot image in the check box.

3. Execute the file dialogue box choosing the boot files text box.

4. Choose the boot file to be revised in the file dialogue box

5. Click the button ‘apply boot image’

As above procedures the ACS server saved RGs to upgrade the boot image and boot files in itself. The

sever upgrades the boot image if the information of registration packet differs from that of RG list and

boot file.

As you can see in the below picture, RGs which is checked in check box is not upgraded and RGs which

is not checked in check box is complete to be upgraded. The RGs which is not complete to be upgraded

starts to be upgraded after the server receives the registration packet. If upgrade is done correctly,

‘Upgradable’ item is cleared automatically.

The following screen is that apply Registration packet's information that send to ACS server when RG

boots.

To update Boot image, you follow the steps and procedures.
