1.9 Operation Precautions

It is forbidden to modify the system time of the server during the T2000 operation. Please set the system time during the T2000 installation. To modify the system time of the server, do exit from the T2000 server first and then restart it after the modification. Do not modify the name and IP address of the computer as T2000 server randomly. Log in the Solaris CDE as t2000 on the UNIX platform. While on the Windows platform, you must use the user name and password in the T2000 installation for login. Make sure the data at NE side is consistent with that at the NM side. When the NE data configuration is finished and runs normally, please update the data at the NM side manually or with auto synchronization function. Backup the T2000 database periodically to minimize the loss caused by system abnormity. If the login user has the authority of system administrator, the operation of Shut Down Server can be implemented. Be cautious to execute this operation to avoid shutting down the running server by mistake. It is recommended to query the latest data from the NE side before settings parameters. Usually, when a dangerous operation is going to be implemented, the T2000 will give a confirmation message to remind the operator.

Logically the whole Ethernet LAN domain can be regarded as a huge switch. A user can access the switch from any ports in the domain. The port of this switch supports Layer 2 protocols, such as spanning tree and Internet group management protocol (IGMP Snooping). The Ethernet private LAN (EPLn) is a simple application of the Ethernet LAN service. In this case, the VCTRUNK port cannot be shared.

8.3 Configuring Ethernet Service at Single Station

8.3.1 Creating Transparently Transmitted Ethernet Service Purpose
The transparent transmission of Ethernet service is implemented through setting static routes by:

Port Port + VLAN.
The port here can be either the MAC (media access control) port or VCTRUNK port of the Ethernet board. Usually, the transparent transmitted Ethernet service is applied to point-to-point or point-to-multipoint connection. The transparent transmission of Ethernet service enables each set-up route to have a fixed bandwidth and performance. When one more service is created, connections must be created between the nodes on the trail. The transparent transmission of Ethernet service is applicable to simple networks. The network performance can be improved through reasonable settings and the use of static route. Moreover, bandwidth can be reserved for important services.
Prerequisites
