1 Interface Overview

1.1 Interface Types


Interfaces on the router are used to exchange data and interact with other network devices, and are classified into physical interfaces and logical interfaces.

Physical Interfaces
Physical interfaces exist on boards. Physical interfaces are classified into the following types: l l LAN-side interface: is used by the router to exchange data with network devices on LANs. WAN-side interface: is used by the router to exchange data with devices on external networks.

Table 1-1 Physical interface types Type LAN-side interface Sub-type Fast Ethernet (FE) interface Description A LAN-side FE interface works at the data link layer, provides a maximum of 100 Mbit/s transmission rate, processes Layer 2 protocol packets, and implements Layer 2 forwarding. A WAN-side FE interface works at the network layer, can be assigned an IP address, provides a maximum of 100 Mbit/s transmission rate, processes Layer 3 protocol packets, and provides the routing function. An ADSL interface provides asymmetric transmit and receive rates and implements fast data transmission over copper twisted pairs by employing high frequencies that are not used by regular telephone lines.
NOTE Only the AR207-S supports ADSL interfaces.

FE interface

WAN-side interface

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) interface

Logical Interfaces
Logical interfaces are manually configured interfaces and can be used to exchange data but do not exist physically.

1 Interface Overview

Table 1-2 Logical interface types Type LAN-side interface Sub-type LAN-side Eth-Trunk interface Virtual template interface Virtual Ethernet interface Description A LAN-side Eth-Trunk interface has Layer 2 features and is formed by binding multiple Layer 2 Ethernet interfaces to provide more bandwidth and higher transmission reliability. A virtual template interface is used when PPP needs to transmit packets of other link layer protocols. A virtual Ethernet interface is used when the Ethernet needs to transmit packets of other link layer protocols. An MP group interface is dedicated to MP applications, can be used to perform MP binding, and is usually used in scenarios requiring dynamic bandwidth. A dialer interface implements the dialer control center (DCC) function. A physical interface can be bound to a dialer interface to inherit the configuration of the dialer interface. A WAN-side Eth-Trunk interface has Layer 3 features and is formed by binding multiple Layer 3 Ethernet interfaces to provide more bandwidth and higher transmission reliability. A tunnel interface has Layer 3 features, transmits packets, and identifies and processes packets transmitted over a tunnel. A VLANIF interface has Layer 3 features and enables VLANs to communicate after being assigned an IP address. A sub-interface is configured on a main interface to allow the local device to communicate with multiple peer devices. An MFR interface is formed by binding multiple physical interfaces including channelized serial interfaces to provide more bandwidth. A loopback interface is always Up and can be configured with a 32-bit subnet mask. A null interface is used to filter routes because any data packets received by the null interface are discarded.

Description A bridge interface has Layer 3 features and enables users on different network segments on a transparent bridge to communicate after being assigned an IP address.

1.2 Interface Numbering


This section describes the interface numbering scheme on the AR200-S. On the AR200-S, interfaces are numbered in the format of slot ID/subcard ID/interface sequence number. l Slot ID The slot ID specifies the ID of the slot where a card resides. When slots need to be combined into one slot, the greater slot ID is used as the new slot ID. For example, when slot 1 and slot 2 are combined, slot ID 2 is used as the new slot ID. l Subcard ID The subcard ID specifies the ID of a subcard. The cards of AR200-S series routers do not support subcards. Therefore, the subcard ID of the AR200-S is fixed as 0. l Interface sequence number The interface sequence number indicates the number of each interface on a card. There is only one row of interfaces on the interface card. These interfaces are numbered from left to right starting with 0.

There are two rows of interfaces on the interface card. These interfaces are numbered from bottom to top and left to right starting with 0.

3 Ethernet Interface Configuration

3.1 Introduction to Ethernet Interfaces


Ethernet is flexible, simple, and easy to implement, and therefore it becomes an important local area network (LAN) networking technology. The AR200-S provides two types of Ethernet interfaces: l l Layer 2 Ethernet interface (LAN-side Ethernet interface): works at the data link layer to process Layer 2 protocol packets. Layer 3 Ethernet interface (WAN-side Ethernet interface): works at the network layer to process Layer 3 protocol packets and provide routing capabilities. A Layer 3 Ethernet interface can be assigned an IP address.

Layer 2 Ethernet interfaces on the AR200-S include fast Ethernet (FE) interfaces. Layer 2 FE interfaces are electrical interfaces. Table 3-1 lists attributes of the Layer 2 Ethernet interfaces supported by the AR200-S. Table 3-1 Attributes of Layer 2 Ethernet interfaces Interface Type Rate (Mbit/ s) Auto-Negotiation Full Duplex Yes Yes Half Duplex Yes Yes Non-Auto Negotiation Full Duplex Yes Yes Half Duplex Yes Yes

Layer 3 Ethernet interfaces on the AR200-S include fast Ethernet (FE) interfaces. Layer 3 FE interfaces are electrical interfaces. Table 3-2 lists attributes of the Layer 3 Ethernet interfaces supported by the AR200-S.
NOTE

By default, Ethernet0/0/0 is a Layer 2 Ethernet interface. On the AR200-S, you can use the undo portswitch command to change the working mode of Ethernet0/0/0 from Layer 3 mode to Layer 2 mode.

NOTE

3 Ethernet Interface Configuration

By default, an Ethernet interface works in auto-negotiation mode. The default mode is recommended. If auto-negotiation succeeds, interfaces on both ends work at the same duplex mode and rate.

3.2 Ethernet Interface Features Supported by the AR200-S


This section describes the ethernet interface features supported by the AR200-S.
NOTE

All Ethernet interfaces on the AR200-S are FE interfaces.

Port Group
The port group function of the AR200-S allows you to configure multiple interfaces in a port group at the same time. A command executed in the port group view applies to all the interfaces in the port group.

Auto-Negotiation
The auto-negotiation function allows interfaces on both ends of a link to select the same operating parameters by exchanging information. In auto-negotiation mode, interfaces negotiate their operating parameters, including the duplex mode, rate, and flow control. If the negotiation succeeds, the two interfaces use the same operating parameters.

Port Isolation
The simplest method of isolating interfaces on the AR200-S is to add different interfaces to different VLANs, but this wastes VLAN resources. The port isolation function allows you to add interfaces to a port isolation group so that these interfaces can be isolated from each other. Therefore, this function helps implement secure and flexible networking schemes.

3.3 Configuring General Attributes of Ethernet Interfaces


This section describes how to configure general attributes of Layer 2 and Layer 3 Ethernet interfaces.

3.3.1 Establishing the Configuration Task


Before configuring attributes for an Ethernet interface, familiarize yourself with the applicable environment, complete the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain the data required for the configuration. This will help you complete the configuration task quickly and accurately.

Applicable Environment
The configuration task is required in the following cases:

3 Ethernet Interface Configuration

l l l

You can configure the description for an Ethernet interface to facilitate identification, maintenance, and configuration of the interface. By default, an Ethernet interface automatically identifies the network cable type. If the interface cannot identify the cable type, set the cable type manually. You can configure the auto-negotiation mode, duplex mode, rate, and bandwidth utilization parameters on an interface.
NOTE

All parameters in this section have default values, and these default values are recommended.

Pre-configuration Tasks
Before configuring attributes for an Ethernet interface, complete the following task: l Powering on the router and starting the router

Data Preparation
To configure attributes for an Ethernet interface, you need the following data. No. 1 Data Number of an Ethernet interface

3.3.2 (Optional) Configuring a Port Group


By configuring a port group, you can configure interfaces in batches.

Context
To perform the same configurations on multiple interfaces, add these interfaces to a port group. In the port group view, you only need to run configuration commands one time, and the configurations apply to all the interfaces in the port group. This reduces the configuration workload.

Procedure
l Create a permanent port group 1. Run:
system-view

The system view is displayed. 2. Run:


port-group port-group-name

A permanent port group is created and the port group view is displayed. 3. Run:

Run the display port-group all command to check the configurations of all port groups.
<Huawei> display port-group all Portgroup: group1 Ethernet0/0/0 Ethernet0/0/1

3.3.3 Configuring the Auto-Negotiation Mode


The auto-negotiation function allows interfaces on both ends of a link to select the same operating parameters by exchanging information.

Context
In auto-negotiation mode, interfaces negotiate their operating parameters, including the duplex mode, rate, and flow control. If the negotiation succeeds, the two interfaces use the same operating parameters. In non-auto negotiation mode, the operating parameters must be set manually.

Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view

The system view is displayed. Step 2 Run:


interface { ethernet | gigabitethernet } interface-number

The Ethernet interface view is displayed. Step 3 Run:

Huawei AR200-S Series Enterprise Routers Configuration Guide - Interface Management


NOTE

3 Ethernet Interface Configuration

Interfaces on both ends of a link must work in the same negotiation mode.

----End

3.3.4 Setting the Duplex Mode for an Ethernet Interface


Ethernet interfaces on both ends of a link must work in the same duplex mode.

Context
An Ethernet interface works in either half duplex or full duplex mode: l l In half duplex mode, an Ethernet interface only receives or sends data at a time, and the transmission distance is limited. In full duplex mode, an Ethernet interface can receive and send data at the same time, and the maximum throughput is double that in half duplex mode. There is no limit on the maximum transmission distance.

You can set the duplex mode for an interface in either auto-negotiation or non-auto negotiation mode. l In auto-negotiation mode, interfaces on both ends of a link negotiate their duplex mode. If the negotiated duplex mode is not the required mode, you can set the duplex mode for the two interfaces. For example, two interfaces negotiate to work in half duplex mode, but they are required to work in full duplex mode (they both support full duplex), run the auto duplex full command to set the full duplex mode for the two interfaces. In non-auto negotiation mode, you can set the required duplex mode for interfaces.

Procedure
l Setting the duplex mode in auto-negotiation mode 1. Run:
system-view

The system view is displayed. 2. Run:


interface { ethernet | gigabitethernet } interface-number

The Ethernet interface view is displayed. 3. Run:


auto duplex { full | half }*

The duplex mode is set for the Ethernet interface. By default, the duplex mode of an Ethernet interface depends on the negotiation between this interface and the peer when auto-negotiation is enabled on the interface l Setting the duplex mode in non-auto negotiation mode 1. Run:
system-view

The system view is displayed. 2. Run:


interface { ethernet | gigabitethernet } interface-number

duplex { full | half }

The duplex mode is set for the Ethernet interface. By default, an Ethernet interface in non-auto negotiation mode works in full duplex mode. ----End

3.3.5 Setting the Rate for an Ethernet Interface


Ethernet interfaces on both ends of a link must work at the same rate.

Context
In auto-negotiation mode, interfaces on both ends of a link negotiate their rate. If the negotiated rate is not the required rate, you can set the auto-negotiation rate range to limit the negotiated rate. For example, if two interfaces negotiate to work at a rate of 10 Mbit/s, but they are required to work at a rate of 100 Mbit/s, you can run the auto speed 100 command to set the rate of the interfaces to 100 Mbit/s. In non-auto negotiation mode, you must set the rate for interfaces so that devices of the interfaces can communicate.

Procedure
l Setting the rate in auto-negotiation mode 1. Run:
system-view

The system view is displayed. 2. Run:


interface { ethernet | gigabitethernet } interface-number

The Ethernet interface view is displayed. 3. Run: auto speed { 10 | 100 }* The auto-negotiation rate range is set for the Ethernet interface.

The rate is set for the Ethernet interface. In non-auto negotiation mode, an Ethernet interface works at the maximum rate by default. The rate of an FE interface cannot be set to 1000 Mbit/s. ----End

3.3.6 Configuring the Outbound and Inbound Bandwidth Utilization of an Ethernet interface
After the bandwidth usage is configured for the incoming and outgoing traffic on an Ethernet interface, the system sends a trap to the NMS when the actual bandwidth usage exceeds the upper threshold. When the bandwidth usage falls below the upper threshold, the system sends a clear alarm to the NMS.

Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view

The system view is displayed. Step 2 Run:


snmp-agent trap enable

The outbound and inbound bandwidth utilization alarm function is enabled on all Ethernet interfaces. Step 3 Run:

3.4 Configuring Layer 2 Ethernet Interface


This section describes the configurations supported only by Layer 2 Ethernet interfaces, including port isolation and traffic control.

3.4.1 Establishing the Configuration Task


Before setting parameters for a Layer 2 Ethernet interface, familiarize yourself with the applicable environment, complete the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain the data required for the configuration. This will help you complete the configuration task quickly and accurately.

Applicable Environment
The AR200-S provides two types of Ethernet interfaces: Layer 2 Ethernet interface and Layer 3 Ethernet interface. A Layer 2 Ethernet interface works at the data link layer, processes Layer 2 protocol packets, and implements Layer 2 forwarding.
NOTE

For details about other configurations on the Layer 2 Ethernet interface, see 3.3 Configuring General Attributes of Ethernet Interfaces.

The configuration task is required in the following situations: l l Port isolation can be configured to isolate interfaces in a VLAN. Traffic control can be configured to prevent packet loss caused by network congestion.

Pre-configuration Tasks
Before setting parameters for a Layer 2 Ethernet interface, complete the following tasks:

3.5 Configuring Port Isolation


Port isolation isolates interfaces in a VLAN.

Applicable Environment
Table 3-3 shows the port isolation methods and application scenarios. Table 3-3 Port isolation methods and application scenarios Port Isolation Method Configure unidirectio nal isolation on interfaces Application Scenario

l When multiple hosts connect to different interfaces of a router and a host sends many broadcast packets to the other hosts, isolate the interface connected to host from other interface unidirectionally. Then the other hosts do not receive packets from the host. l Interfaces in a port isolation group are isolated from each other, but interfaces in different port isolation groups can communicate. To isolate interfaces in different port isolation groups, configure unidirectional isolation between these interfaces. To implement Layer 2 isolation between interfaces, you can add different interfaces to different VLANs. This wastes VLAN resources. To save VLAN resources, you can enable port isolation to isolate interfaces in a VLAN. That is, you can add interfaces to a port isolation group to implement Layer 2 isolation between these interfaces. Port isolation provides secure and flexible networking schemes for customers.

3.5.1 Configuring Flow Control


Flow control prevents packet loss caused by network congestion.

Context
Network congestion causes packet loss. Flow control is a method of avoiding packet loss. After flow control is enabled on an interface, the interface sends a data frame to inform its remote interface when the received traffic rate reaches or exceeds its capacity. If the remote interface also supports flow control, it then sends data at a lower rate to prevent packet loss.

4 ADSL Interface Configuration

4.1 ADSL Overview


Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is a data communications technology that enables fast data transmission over copper twisted pairs by employing high frequencies that are not used by regular telephone lines.

Background
Depending on transmission media, network access modes include wired access, wireless access, and combination of wired and wireless access. Wired access includes twisted pair access, fiber access, and access by using both twisted pairs and fibers. Traditional copper twisted pairs are widely used for access, so ADSL becomes the most competitive access mode. ADSL uses the frequency division multiplexing (FDM) technology to classify telephone lines into regular telephone lines, upstream channels, and downstream channels, avoiding interference. ADSL can provide channelized data services (including E1/Tl, FR, IP, and ATM services) and transmit data, voice, and video signals at a high rate.

ADSL Evolution
The first ADSL standards (G.992.1 G.DMT and G.992.2 G.Lite) supported the upstream transmission rate of 640 kbit/s to 2 Mbit/s, downstream transmission rate of 1 Mbit/s to 8 Mbit/ s, and transmission distance of 3 to 5 km. Since the release of ADSL in June 1999, the ITU has been improving the ADSL transmission performance, anti-attenuation and anti-interference capabilities, line diagnosis, and operation maintenance. In 2002, the ITU released ADSL2, which comprises two new ADSL standards (G.992.3 and G.992.4). In 2003, the ITU defined G.992.5, which is referred to as ADSL2+. Compared with the first ADSL technology, ADSL2/2+ has the following advantages: 1. ADSL2 improves performance in long-distance transmission, anti-attenuation, and antinoise. ADSL2 also improves the frame structure, so it can provide a maximum of 1 Mbit/ s upstream transmission rate and 12 Mbit/s downstream transmission rate. Expanding the frequency spectrum used, ADSL2+ greatly improves transmission performance and provides a maximum rate of 1 Mbit/s upstream and 24 Mbit/s downstream. In addition to providing higher rates, ADSL2/2+ improves transmission performance in long-distance transmission and anti-interference by improving the modulation rate and coding gain, reducing the frame overhead, and using enhanced signal processing methods. Currently, ADSL provides a transmission distance of 3 km, whereas ADSL2+ achieves a maximum of 6 km transmission distance. ADSL2/2+ saves energy. The first ADSL technology provides the same transmission rate regardless of whether data is being transmitted. ADSL2/2+ enables a transmitter to enter the sleep state when the data transmission rate is low or no data is being transmitted, reducing power consumption and heat dissipation.

4 ADSL Interface Configuration

A CPE provides interfaces for users, modulates and demodulates data signals, and uploads user data to a DSLAM.
NOTE

An AR200-S functions as a CPE.

In the ADSL system, downstream transmission refers to data transmission from a DSLAM to a CPE, and upstream transmission refers to data transmission from a CPE to a DSLAM. ADSL interfaces on the AR200-S are upstream interfaces. Figure 4-1 ADSL system

4.2 ADSL Features Supported by the AR200-S


To enable the AR200-S function as a CPE to transmit services on an ADSL line, deactivate an ADSL interface on the AR200-S, set parameters for the interface, and then activate the interface to make configurations take effect.
NOTE

Only the AR206, AR207, AR207V, and AR207V-P support ADSL interfaces.

Interface Activation
Activation of a G.SHDSL interface refers to the training between a DSLAM and a CPE. During the training, the two devices check the line distance and status and negotiate parameters such as the transmission standard, upstream and downstream line rates, and specified noise margin. If the training succeeds, the G.SHDSL interface on the CPE is activated and can transmit data. After an AR200-S starts, its G.SHDSL interface is automatically activated. The G.SHDSL interface remains activated as long as its G.SHDSL line works properly. To set line parameters, deactivate the G.SHDSL interface on the CPE. After setting parameters, activate the interface to make configurations take effect.

Transmission Standard
Parameters for an ADSL interface include the transmission standard, bit exchange status, seamless rate adaptation status, and trellis coding status. Transmission Standard Table 4-1 lists the transmission standards supported by the AR200-S. The AR200-S functions as a CPE and must be configured with the same transmission standard as the DSLAM. It is recommended that you configure the AR200-S to automatically adapt to the transmission standard of the DSLAM. Table 4-1 Transmission standards supported by the AR200-S Transmission Standard G.DMT (G992.1) Description Provides an upstream frequency band from 25 kHz to 138 kHz, a downstream frequency band from 138 kHz to 1.104 MHz, a maximum of 1 Mbit/s upstream transmission rate, and a maximum of 8 Mbit/s downstream transmission rate. Provides faster transmission rates by improving the modulation rate, coding gain, and initialization state machine, reducing the frame overhead, and using enhanced signal processing methods. ADSL2 can provide a maximum of 1 Mbit/s upstream transmission rate and 12 Mbit/s downstream transmission rate. Reach extended ADSL2 (AnnexL for short) is defined in ADSL2 recommendation. It uses a narrower frequency band and optimizes the power spectral density (PSD) mask to provide long-distance transmission. Expands the frequency band to 2.208 MHz and provides a maximum of 1 Mbit/s upstream transmission rate and 24 Mbit/s downstream transmission rate. Expands the upstream frequency band of ADSL2 or ADSL2+ and provides a maximum of 2 Mbit/s upstream transmission rate.
NOTE NOTE Only the AR207, AR207V, and AR207V-P support this parameter.

4 ADSL Interface Configuration

NOTE

The performance of an ADSL interface depends on external factors, such as DSLAM line card types, DSLAM software version, line noise, line length, and temperature.

Bit Exchange During line activation, every sub-channel calculates the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the number of bits to be transmitted. After the line is activated, the SNR may change because the external environment changes. For example, the SNRs of some sub-channels decrease, whereas the SNRs of others increase. After a long period of time, the line may disconnect. The bit exchange function addresses this issue in the following ways: l l Allows sub-channels with low SNRs switch some bits that they cannot transmit to subchannels with higher SNRs. Reduces the transmit power of sub-channels with higher SNRs to increase the sending rate and SNRs of sub-channels with lower SNRs. These measures reduce the bit error rate without triggering line negotiation. Seamless Rate Adaptation To prevent the line disconnection when the external environment changes, the bit exchange function adjusts bit distribution or the power among sub-channels without deactivating the line. However, the bit exchange function cannot change the line rate. When the line environment worse, the bit exchange function just allows the line to be activated at a smaller rate. When the line environment becomes better, the bit exchange function cannot adjust the rate and therefore, wasting line resources. Seamless rate adaptation solves this problem by dynamically adjusting the line rate without reactivating the line. Trellis Coding Trellis coding increases the SNR by using an algorithm with a high coding efficiency. After trellis coding is enabled, the line activation rate is significantly increased.

5 Logical Interface Configuration

5.1 Introduction to Logical Interfaces


Logical interfaces do not exist physically. They are manually configured for data exchange. Logical interfaces on the AR200-S include Eth-Trunk interfaces, VLANIF interfaces, subinterfaces, loopback interfaces, null interfaces, MP group interfaces, dialer interfaces, tunnel interfaces, virtual Ethernet interfaces, and virtual template interfaces.

5.2 Features of the AR200-S Logical Interfaces


This section describes the applicable environment of logical interfaces. The AR200-S mainly supports the following types of logical interfaces: l l l l l l l l l l Eth-Trunk interface: includes Layer 2 and Layer 3 Eth-Trunk interfaces, which increase bandwidth and improves transmission reliability. VLANIF interface: has Layer 3 features and enables VLANs to communicate after being assigned an IP address. Sub-interface: used to implement communication between a physical link and multiple remote ends. Loopback interface: used when the status of the interface needs to be always Up or the interface needs to be configured with 32-bit subnet mask. Null interface: used in route filtering because any network packets sent to this interface are discarded. MP group interface: used to perform MP binding. MP group interfaces are dedicated to the MP application and usually used in scenarios requiring dynamic bandwidth. Dialer interface: used to implement the Dialer Control Center (DCC) function. A physical interface can be bound to a dialer interface to inherit the configuration of the dialer interface. Tunnel interface: has Layer 3 features, transmits packets, and identifies and processes packets transmitted over a tunnel. Virtual-Template (VT) interface: used in the MP binding or when other data link layer protocols need to be transmitted over a PPP link. Virtual-Ethernet (VE) interface: used when other data link layer protocols need to be carried by the Ethernet protocol.
NOTE

l For the configurations of Eth-Trunk interfaces and VLANIF interfaces, see the Huawei AR200-S Series Enterprise Routers Configuration Guide - LAN. l For the configurations of MP group interfaces, MFR interfaces, and dialer interfaces, see the Huawei AR200S Series Enterprise Routers Configuration Guide - WAN. l For the configuration of the tunnel interface, see the Huawei AR200-S Series Enterprise Routers Configuration Guide - VPN.
