Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Overview Egate-100 is a Gigabit Ethernet over TDM aggregation gateway that combines Ethernet traffic carried over PDH (E1/T1) into a Gigabit Ethernet MAN (Metropolitan Area Network). Egate-100 can aggregate up to 126 remote LANs over fractional E1/T1 or up to 42 links using standard bonding protocols.
PAGE 34
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual Egate-100 can be managed via Telnet and the Web-based management application for inband configuration and management, as well as an ASCII terminal for out-of-band management. The unit is supplied as a compact standalone 1U high enclosure, with an optional 19-inch rack mounting kit.
PAGE 35
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction Figure 1-1. Typical Egate-100 Application Features Egate-100 is an Ethernet concentrator grooming Ethernet traffic carried over PDH (E1/T1) over SDH into a Gigabit Ethernet LAN. The unit includes the following interfaces: • Two Gigabit Ethernet ports • Two STM-1/OC-3c ports or three channelized T3 ports • Fast Ethernet port for management • Terminal control port for out-of-band management.
PAGE 36
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual STM-1/OC-3 Egate-100 supports two channelized STM-1/OC-3 interfaces (with APS support) for SDH mapping (E1s over VC-12 over VC4) or SONET mapping (T1s over VT1.5 over STS1 over STS3). Either port can be configured as the active port. SDH/SONET mode is user-configurable. Jitter output and tolerance comply with G.825 requirements.
PAGE 37
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction The internal bridge operates in VLAN-unaware or VLAN-aware modes (with or without VLAN double tagging). The VLAN-aware bridge mode allows you to create a subgroup of bridge ports within the bridge. Each such subgroup is associated with a unique VLAN ID. Frames can be forwarded only between bridge ports that are members of the same VLAN, thus enabling a total separation between different VLAN users within the same bridge.
PAGE 38
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual Simple Network Time Protocol The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) provides the means of synchronizing all managed elements across the network to a reliable clock source. The Egate-100 clock can be automatically synchronized to an accurate time from an NTP server at user-selectable intervals.

PAGE 41
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction Incoming traffic from the Ethernet ports is processed by the Network processor, which performs bridging, forwarding and QoS based queuing, which results in an egress bridge to a logical port. The packets are marked with a bridge port ID and forwarded over the high speed bus to the FPGA. The FPGA maps the packets of each bridge port to the associated E1/T1 group according to the associated encapsulation method.

Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual SONET Mapping The following figure illustrates the mapping of T1s over SONET. Figure 1-6. Low Order: OC-3 / STS-1 SPEs / VT Group / VT1.5s / T1s Gigabit Ethernet Link Aggregation The two Gigabit Ethernet ports can be configured to operate independently as two separate Ethernet interfaces, or as a single Ethernet interface with link aggregation mode in accordance with IEEE 802.3ad (without LACP).
PAGE 43
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction Bridge Egate-100 has a multiport bridge with up to two Ethernet bridge ports and up to 130 bridge ports over the CH-STM-1/OC-3 interface. The bridge supports two modes of operation: VLAN-aware and VLAN-unaware. VLAN-Aware Mode This mode enables creation of subgroups of bridge ports within the bridge. Each subgroup is defined per VLAN and is associated with a unique VLAN ID.
PAGE 44
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual Ingress Process The ingress process is composed of three subprocesses: frame admission, ingress filtering and PVID assignment to untagged/priority only tagged frames. • • Frame admission – has two modes of operation (configurable per bridge): Admit all frames – all frames arriving from the port are admitted and proceed to the Ingress Filtering process.
PAGE 45
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction and default priority tag are assigned to the frame before it passes to the forwarding process. If tag stacking is enabled, the user can select the priority according to the received priority tag or the default priority tag.
PAGE 46
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual actual aging time that can reach up to twice the value that was configured by the user. Forwarding Process The forwarding process is performed based on the frame destination MAC-VID pair. The frame is forwarded to the bridge port that was specified in the MAC table for this MAC-VID pair entry. Untagged frames are forwarded according to the PVID that was attached to the frame during the ingress process.
PAGE 47
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction VLAN-Unaware Mode In this mode the bridge forwarding ignores the VLAN ID of VLAN-tagged frames. Each Ethernet packet received from each bridge port (Gigabit Ethernet or E1/T1s) is forwarded according to its destination MAC address.
PAGE 48
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual Frames are forwarded, dropped, or flooded at this stage for the following reason: • Forwarded – A frame will be forwarded according to its DA, to the bridge port where its DA was learned • Dropped – Local filtering: if the port for that DA entry in the MAC table is the port on which the frame was received, the frame will be dropped • Flooded – If there is no information regarding the DA in the MAC table then the frame is flooded to all ports
PAGE 49
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction Flows Egate-100 supports up to 253 unidirectional flows. Flows are defined by ingress and egress ports, a classification profile and a priority. The flow traffic can be passed, dropped or policed. Figure 1-8. Data Flow – Network GbE to E1T1/SDH Interface Figure 1-9. Data Flow – E1T1/SDH Interface to Network GbE Classification The ingress user traffic is mapped to the Ethernet flows using classification types.

Installation and Operation Manual • Chapter 1 Introduction Allow on-the-fly addition/deletion of group members. Up to 100 ms differential delay. GFP Technical Overview TX Traffic Path In this direction, the ETHERNET packet with the CRC32 is encapsulated into GFP. The encapsulation can be divided into two main sections: a Core Header and a Payload Area. The Core Header contains the packet length and a CRC16 result of the length.
PAGE 54
Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual The Payload Area contains between 4 and 64 bytes, according to the following: Figure 1-15. GFP Encapsulation – Payload Area • PTI – Payload Type Identifier – indicates the content of the GFP frame: user frame or management frame (Egate-100 does not generate management frames in the Tx direction) • PFI – indicates whether the packet includes PFCS • EXI – indicates the type of extension header encapsulated in the frame.
PAGE 55
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction RX Traffic Path The traffic received from TDM ports is assumed by Egate-100 to be traffic arriving from a non-LCAS GFP transmitter. Egate-100 hence treats the data according to the following: • VCAT header extraction: The VCAT header is extracted from the first timeslot of each multiframe. • Frame Delineation: The frame border is recognized by synchronization on the core header which contains the frame length & CRC16 on the length.

Chapter 1 Introduction Installation and Operation Manual Figure 1-16. Management Traffic in a VLAN-Aware Application Loop Detection Egate-100 functions as a VLAN-aware bridge (L2 Ethernet switch) with PDH links (E1/T1s) as the bridge ports. E1/T1 loops are quite common in PDH networks (for diagnostic purposes, among others). These can in turn produce Ethernet loops, resulting in Ethernet network problems.
PAGE 61
Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction bridge port is shut down. Egate-100 continues to send loop detection frames, and detects the end of the loop after three consecutive loop detection frames do not return, upon which transmission resumes at the bridge port. Diagnostics Several types of diagnostics and troubleshooting procedures are available: • Ping test and self-test • E1/T1 PRBS tests for E1/T1 • Events/traps. Alarms and traps can be masked by user configuration.
