Chapter 17 CE-100T-8 Ethernet Operation
CE-100T-8 Ethernet Features
The pause frame instructs the source to stop sending packets for a specific period of time. The sending
station waits the requested amount of time before sending more data. Figure 17-2 illustrates pause
frames being sent and received by CE-100T-8 cards and attached switches.
Figure 17-2 Flow Control
This flow-control mechanism matches the sending and receiving device throughput to that of the
bandwidth of the STS circuit. For example, a router might transmit to the Ethernet port on the CE-100T-8
card. This particular data rate might occasionally exceed 51.84 Mbps, but the SONET circuit assigned
to the CE-100T-8 port might be only STS-1 (51.84 Mbps). In this example, the CE-100T-8 sends out a
pause frame and requests that the router delay its transmission for a certain period of time. With flow
control and a substantial per-port buffering capability, a private line service provisioned at less than full
line rate capacity (STS-1) is efficient because frame loss can be controlled to a large extent.
Ethernet Link Integrity Support
The CE-100T-8 supports end-to-end Ethernet link integrity (Figure 17-3). This capability is integral to
providing an Ethernet private line service and correct operation of Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocols on the
attached Ethernet devices.
End-to-end Ethernet link integrity means that if any part of the end-to-end path fails, the entire path fails.
It disables the Ethernet port on the CE-100T-8 card if the remote Ethernet port is unable to transmit over
the SONET network or if the remote Ethernet port is disabled.
Failure of the entire path is ensured by turning off the transmit pair at each end of the path. The attached
Ethernet devices recognize the disabled transmit pair as a loss of carrier and consequently an inactive
link or link fail.
Figure 17-3 End-to-End Ethernet Link Integrity Support
Note Some network devices can be configured to ignore a loss of carrier condition. If a device configured to
ignore a loss of carrier condition attaches to a CE-100T-8 card at one end, alternative techniques (such
as use of Layer 2 or Layer 3 keep-alive messages) are required to route traffic around failures. The
response time of such alternate techniques is typically much longer than techniques that use link state as
indications of an error condition.
