2 Prepare for Installation This section contains warnings, information about tools and parts, site preparation information, and information for workbench or tabletop installation and rack-mount installation. Warning This warning symbol means danger. You are in a situation that could cause bodily injury. Before you work on any equipment, be aware of the hazards involved with electrical circuitry and be familiar with standard practices for preventing accidents.
Table 2-1 SCE Platform Model Information Model number SCE 1010 2xGBE Link Type Gigabit Ethernet Number of Ports 2 Number of Links 1 Site Preparation and Unpacking • Lift the SCE 1000 platform safely out of the packing container. • Ensure the power service at the site is suitable for the SCE 1000 platform. • Check the packing slip to ensure that all the proper components are present. • Locate and have accessible the Site Log for recording information about this installation.
Workbench or Tabletop Installation Figure 1: Installing the System on a Flat Surface For a workbench or tabletop installation, verify the following before installing the SCE 1000 platform: • The SCE 1000 platform is off the floor and has adequate ventilation. • An adequate chassis ground (earth) connection exists for the SCE 1000 platform. • The SCE 1000 platform has at least 2 inches (5 cm) of clearance at each side and at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) of clearance at the rear to allow proper air flow.
3 Rack-Mount the SCE 1000 This section provides information for rack-mounting the SCE 1000 platform. There are two standard types of equipment racks, and the appropriate brackets for each are provided in the enclosed kit. • 19” rack with front rack posts: the mounting kit includes two mounting brackets as illustrated below • 19” rack with front and back rack posts: in addition to the mounting brackets illustrated below, the mounting kit includes two crossrail supports that the unit slides onto.
Attach the Brackets to the SCE 1000 Before installing the SCE 1000 in the rack, you must first install an appropriate rack-mount bracket on each side of the front of the SCE 1000, as illustrated in the following figures.
To install the rack-mount brackets on the SCE 1000 chassis, complete the following steps: Before installing the SCE 1000 in the rack, you must first install a rack-mount bracket on each side of the front of the SCE 1000. Step 3 Align the rack-mount bracket to the side of the SCE 1000. Choose the proper bracket for your installation (2- post rack or 4-post rack) as illustrated in Rack-Mount the SCE 1000 (on page 7). Step 4 Insert and tighten three screws.
Attach the Crossrail Supports to the Rack Figure 5: Attaching the Crossrails to the Rack Step 1 Align the crossrail supports with the side of the rack, parallel to the floor. Step 2 Insert and tighten two screws to the front posts or mounting strips of the rack Step 3 Insert and tighten two screws to the Back posts of the rack. Step 4 Repeat steps 2 through 4 on the other side of the rack, keeping the brackets flush against the posts and parallel to the supporting bracket on first side of the rack.
Mount the System to the Rack When the appropriate mounting brackets are securely installed, the SCE 1000 can be installed into the rack. Figure 6: Sliding the SCE 1000 into the Rack Step 1 Make sure that the rack brakes are locked or that the rack is otherwise stabilized. Step 2 Position the SCE 1000 so that the front end is closest to you, and lift it carefully to place it into the rack. To prevent injury, avoid sudden twists or moves.
Step 4 While keeping the brackets flush against the posts or mounting strips, align the holes in the brackets with the holes on the rack or mounting strip. Figure 7: Securing the SCE 1000 to the Rack Step 5 For each bracket, insert and tighten two appropriate screws to the rack. Note 12 Since the brackets support the weight of the entire SCE 1000 chassis, be sure to use all four screws to fasten the two rackmount brackets to the rack posts.
4 Connect the Power Supply Units This section provides information for grounding the SCE 1000 platform and connecting the AC or DC power supply units.
Figure 9: Grounding the Unit (DC) A Grounding kit is provided with each SCE 1000. Use this Grounding kit to properly ground the SCE 1000 chassis. Warning When installing the unit, the chassis ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last. Step 1 On the rear panel of the SCE 1000, locate the chassis grounding connector (refer to the appropriate figure for an AC- or DC-powered SCE 1000 above).
Connect the Power The following sections describe how to reconnect the AC or DC power: • Connect the DC-Input Power Supply Unit (on page 15) • Connect the AC-Input Power Supply Unit (on page 17) Connect the DC-Input Power Supply Unit Figure 10: Connecting the DC Power Warning Before completing any of the following steps, and to prevent short-circuit or shock hazards, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit.
Step 1 Ensure that the DC power line input leads are disconnected from the power source. Step 2 Using the number 2 Phillips screwdriver, remove the protective plate from the terminal block. Step 3 Insert one receptacle screw into the hex or loop connector on one power line input, insert the screw with the connector into the corresponding lead receptacle and tighten the receptacle screw using the number 2 Phillips . Repeat for the remaining power line input lead.
Connect the AC-Input Power Supply Unit Figure 11: Connecting the AC Power Step 1 Plug the AC-input power cable into the AC-input power receptacle on the AC-input power supply Note For AC-input power, we recommend powering the SCE 1000 platform from a 120 VAC, 15A receptacle U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international) at the power source. 15 A branch circuit protection is recommended. Step 2 Plug the AC power supply cable into the AC power source. Step 3 Turn the on/off switch to the on (⏐) position.
5 Connect the Management Interfaces and Perform Initial System Configuration This section explains how to connect the SCE 1000 platform to a local console and perform the initial system configuration via the setup wizard that runs automatically. Additionally, this section contains instructions for cabling the Fast Ethernet Management interface. Note When installing a cascaded system, it is extremely important to follow the sequence of procedures outlined in the section Installing a Cascaded System.
The above SCE 1000 port parameters are fixed and are not configurable. Step 1 Plug the RS-232 serial cable provided with the SCE 1000 into the CON port on the front panel of the SCE 1000. Step 2 Connect the other end of the serial cable (with an attached DB-9 connector) to the VT100 compatible local (serial) terminal. Step 3 At the console. press Enter several times until the Cisco logo appears on the local terminal and the setup configuration dialog is entered.
Setup Command Parameters Table 5-1 Setup Command Parameters Parameter Definition IP address IP address of the SCE 1000. subnet mask Subnet mask of the SCE 1000. default gateway Default gateway. hostname Character string used to identify the SCE 1000 admin password Admin level password. Character string from 4-100 characters beginning with an alpha character. root password Root level password. Character string from 4-100 characters beginning with an alpha character.
Parameter Definition Access Control List number How many ACLs will be necessary? What IP addresses will be permitted/denied access for each management interface? You may want ACLs for the following : • Any IP access • Telnet access • SNMP GET access • SNMP SET access list entries (maximum 20 per list) IP address, and whether permitted or denied access. IP access ACL ID number of the ACL controlling IP access. telnet ACL ID number of the ACL controlling telnet access.
Following are some general instructions regarding the setup dialog: • All default values appear in square brackets [default]. If no value appears in the brackets [], or more than one option appears [yes/no], then this parameter does not have a default value. • To accept the default value, press Enter. • If you need more information about any parameter, type ? and press Enter. A help message will appear describing the expected format of the parameter and any other requirements.
• To accept the displayed value, press Enter. • To change the value, type the desired value in the format “x.x.x.x” and press Enter. EXAMPLE: The following example displays a typical configuration of the IP address (10.1.5.109), subnet mask (255.255.0.0), and default gateway (10.1.1.3). Since the IP address and the subnet mask are related, when the IP address is changed, there is no longer a default value of the subnet mask, and it must be entered explicitly. Enter IP address [10.1.1.201]:10.1.5.
• May contain only printable characters Note Passwords are case sensitive. Note The default password for all levels is “cisco”. To change the passwords, complete the following steps: Step 1 The default User password is displayed. • To accept the displayed value, press Enter. • To change the value, type the desired string and press Enter. Step 2 The default Admin password is displayed. • To accept the displayed value, press Enter. • To change the value, type the desired string and press Enter.
You must enter the time setting menu in order to configure SNTP settings. You may choose to skip the time settings menu if you wish to accept all default values. Note Unlike all other settings defined in the system configuration, setting the time is done immediately and not at the end of the setup process. To configure the time settings, complete the following steps: Step 1 Enter the time settings menu. Would you like to enter the Time settings menu? [no]: y Type y and press Enter.
• To change the value, type the desired number of seconds (64 through 1024) and press Enter. Enter time interval in seconds between unicast updates [1024]: Step 8 You may enter an IP address for the SNTP unicast server. Type in the hostname or the IP address in the form x.x.x.x, and press Enter Would you like to configure SNTP unicast servers? [no]: y Enter IP address or hostname of SNTP unicast server: 10.1.1.1 EXAMPLE: Following is a sample time setting dialog.
Note that there is no default domain name. You may accept the default domain name or enter a new one. Enter default domain name []: Step 4 Type the IP address of the primary domain name server and press Enter. Enter Primary DNS IP address: Note that there is no default for this parameter. Step 5 You may configure up to three domain servers. Would you like to add another Name Server? [no]: • To exit the DNS settings dialog, press Enter. • To add another domain server, type y and press Enter.
Step 3 Type the TCP port number of the RDR-formatter destination and press Enter. Note that there is no default for this parameter. Enter RDR-formatter destination’s TCP port number: EXAMPLE: Following is a sample RDR-formatter configuration dialog, assigning the IP address and TCP port number. Would you like to enter the RDR-formatter configuration menu? [no]: y Enter RDR-formatter destination’s IP address: 10.1.1.
• Individual IP address: Type the desired IP address, then enter the wildcard bits 0.0.0.0. Each individual IP address can be configured to be permitted or denied access. Table 5-2 IP address/Wildcard bit examples Initial IP address Wildcard bits Range 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255 10.1.1.0–10.1.1.255 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.63 10.1.1.0–10.1.1.63 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.0 10.1.1.0 (individual entry) Order of Entries The order of the entries in the list is important.
Step 4 Begin adding entries to the selected list. Indicate whether this entry is permitted access or denied access. • To permit access, press Enter. • To deny access, type n and press Enter. Does this entry permit access? [yes]: Step 5 Type the IP address to be added to this list, and press Enter. Type “any” and press Enter to include any IP address in the ACL. Note that there is no default for this parameter.
To accept the default ACL, press Enter. Enter Telnet access-class [0]: 2 EXAMPLE: This example illustrates a common access control scenario. Let us assume the following: • We want to permit every station to access the SCE on the management port (e.g. ping, SNMP polling etc.). • We want to restrict Telnet access to only a few permitted stations. We therefore need to create two access control lists: • For general IP access: permit access to all IP addresses.
Step 8: Configuring SNMP Managing the SCE 1000 is possible also via a Network Management System (NMS) that supports SNMP. By default, SNMP is disabled on the SCE 1000. To enable SNMP management you must configure the following basic SNMP parameters: • SNMP traps status and managers. • Community strings (where an SNMP community string is a text string that acts like a password to permit access to the SNMP agent on the SCE 1000).
Enter SNMP SET community name: Note that there is no default for this parameter. Step 7 Assign an access list to restrict the SNMP management stations that may use this SET community. Type a number (1 through 99) or type “0” to permit access to all IP addresses, and press Enter. Enter Access list number allowing access with this community string, use ‘0’ to allow all: Step 8 The maximum number of SET communities is 20.
• To disable the SCE enterprise traps, type n press Enter. • To enable the SCE enterprise traps, type y and press Enter. Enable the SCE enterprise traps []: Step 16 Type the name of the system administrator and press Enter. Note that there is no default for this parameter.
• • Cascade: two cascaded SCE 1000s are deployed on two SCAS BB Console links, working as a fully redundant solution. Physically connected link (cascade topology only): In a cascade topology, the user must assign an index to each of the links. This index is used to identify the services per link.
• To define receive-only connection mode, type 2 and press Enter. Enter Connection mode: 1- inline 2- receive-only Enter your choice [1]: Step 3 Specify the deployment type. • To specify a Single-SCE Platform deployment, press Enter. • To specify a Cascade deployment, type y and press Enter. Is this a cascade deployment? [no]: Step 4 Specify the physically-connected-link index. • To specify link-0, press Enter. • To specify link-1, type 1 and press Enter.
The following examples present the procedure for configuring the topology-related parameters for various topologies.
EXAMPLE #3: Following is a sample topology configuration for a secondary SCE 1000 in a redundant inline topology. In this topology there are two SCE 1000s that are cascaded via the cascade GBE ports (ports 3 and 4). Each SCE 1000 is connected inline to both sides (subscribers/network) of one GBE link. In this case, the user must specify the physically-connected-link index (link-0 in our example), the priority of the SCE 1000, and the on-failure link behavior.
Found errors in the new configuration, would you like to view them? [yes]: The following errors were found: Warning - RDR formatter destination 10.1.1.1 is not allowed in the IP access-class. Step 3 You are asked whether to apply and save the configuration. Apply and Save this configuration? [yes/no]: • To apply and save the configuration, type y and press Enter. • To abort the setup procedure without applying or saving the configuration (recommended if there are errors), type n and press Enter.
This completes the procedures for initial configuration of the SCE 1000 platform. EXAMPLE #1: Following is an example of a configuration that the user aborted due to errors detected in the configuration. Note that no confirmation is requested for the decision to abort the setup. Had there been no errors, confirmation would have been requested before aborting. Data collection for the system configuration is completed.
Connect the Management Interface Figure 13: Cabling the Management Port Note By default, the management port is configured to auto-negotiation enabled. The SCE 1000 has two management ports, labeled Mng1 and Mng 2. Use the Mng 1 port. Step 1 Plug the Ethernet cable provided (with attached RJ-45 connector) into the Mng 1 port on the front panel of the SCE 1000. Step 2 Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable into your management network. The Link LED on the SCE 1000 management port should light up.
EXAMPLE: The following example displays a typical ping response where the target IP address is 10.1.1.201. C:\>ping 10.1.1.201 pinging 10.1.1.201 ... PING 10.1.1.201: 56 data bytes 64 bytes from host (10.1.1.201): icmp_seq=0. time=0. 64 bytes from host (10.1.1.201): icmp_seq=1. time=0. 64 bytes from host (10.1.1.201): icmp_seq=2. time=0. 64 bytes from host (10.1.1.201): icmp_seq=3. time=0. ----10.1.1.
6 Cable the Line Ports This chapter provides instructions for cabling the Gigabit Ethernet ports and for configuring Gigabit Ethernet (GBE) interface parameters. Note When installing an External Optical Bypass module, the SCE 1000 line ports are connected to the module. See Appendix A in the SCE 1000 2xGBE Installation and Configuration Guide for complete instructions.
Single Link: Receive-only Topology In this topology, an external optical splitter resides physically on the GBE link between the subscriber side and the network side. The external splitter is connected to the SCE 1000 via Rx links only. In this topology, the traffic passes through the external splitter, which splits traffic to the SCE 1000. The SCE 1000, therefore, is in receive-only topology, having only traffic monitoring capabilities. Note Receive-only topologies can also be implemented using a switch.
Step 1 To enter the Global Configuration Mode, at the SCE 1000# prompt, type configure, and press Enter. The SCE 1000(config)# prompt appears. Step 2 To enter the desired GBE port interface, type interface GigabitEthernet 0/portnumber, and press Enter, where portnumber is the number of the selected port (1 or 2). The SCE 1000(config if)# prompt appears. Step 3 Type auto-negotiate and press Enter. The SCE 1000(config if)# prompt appears.
Refer to Cabling Diagrams (on page 43) to find the appropriate cabling diagram for the topology of your system for the specific connections required. The following table presents the fiber specifications. The SCE 1000 may be ordered with either Multimode or Single Mode transceivers. The transceiver type is indicated on the front panel under the ports. Note that both transceivers on any individual SCE 1000 are the same, either 850nm Multimode OR 1310nm Single Mode.
7 Completing the Installation This section discusses how to verify link connectivity and how to install a Service Control application. Examining the LEDs The GBE Link LED must be green in order to verify that an active connection exists. The GBE Rx and Tx LEDs (if flashing green) indicate that traffic is being received or transmitted by the SCE 1000, respectively. Note that in an inline topology, the Rx and Tx LEDs indicate that packets are being received/transmitted by the SCE 1000.
Viewing the User Log Counters View the user log for errors that occurred during the installation process. To display the user log device counters, complete the following steps: Step 1 At the SCE 1000# prompt, type show logger device User-File-Log counters and press Enter. EXAMPLE: The following example shows the current User-File-Log device counters.
To view the running configuration, complete the following steps: Step 1 At the SCE 1000# prompt, type show running-config. The system shows the running configuration. SCE 1000#show running-config #This is a general configuration file (running-config). #Created on 15:50:56 CET MON February 11 2002 #cli-type 1 #version 1 clock timezone CET 1 snmp-server community “public” ro snmp-server host 10.1.1.
To show the version information for the SCE 1000 software and hardware, complete the following steps: Step 1 At the SCE 1000# prompt, type show version. The system shows the version information. SCE 1000#show version System version: Version 2.5.2 Build 240 Build time: Jan 11 2005, 07:34:47 Software version is: Version 2.5.2 Build 240 Hardware information is: rx : 0x0075 dp : 0x1808 tx : 0x1708 ff : 0x0077 cls : 0x1721 cpld : 0x0025 Lic : 0x0176 rev : G001 Bootrom : 2.1.0 L2 cache : Samsung 0.
To show the system uptime for the SCE 1000 software and hardware, complete the following steps: Step 1 At the SCE 1000# prompt, type show system-uptime. The system shows how long the system has been running since the last reboot.
EXAMPLE: The following example shows the running configuration file. SCE 1000#show running-config #This is a general configuration file (running-config). #Created on 15:50:56 CET MON February 11 2002 #cli-type 1 #version 1 clock timezone CET 1 snmp-server community “public” ro snmp-server host 10.1.1.253 traps version 1 “public” interface LineCard 0 connection-mode active no silent no shutdown flow-aging default-timeout UDP 60 interface FastEthernet 0/0 ip address 10.1.5.109 255.255.0.
Loading and Activating a Service Control Application The SCE 1000 platform provides the basic functionalities of Service Control analysis and enforcement. A Service Control solution requires that a Service Control application be loaded into the platform, to take advantage of the unique SCE platform capabilities. Loading and activating an application includes the following stages: • Downloading the application provided as an SLI file to the SCE 1000 disk. • Activating the SCE 1000 application.
8 Troubleshoot Startup Problems SCE 1000 Operational Status The following table lists the operational states of the SCE 1000. The Status LED on the SCE 1000 Front Panel reflects the current SCE 1000 operational status. The operational status can be displayed using CLI command show system operation-status.
Identifying Startup Problems Startup problems are commonly due to the source power or to a poor cable connection. When you start up the SCE 1000 platform for the first time, you should observe the startup sequence described in the Starting the SCE 1000 Platform. This section contains a more detailed description of the normal startup sequence and describes the steps to take if the system does not perform that sequence as expected. LEDs indicate all system states in the startup sequence.
