OBJECTIVE:
To provide Native Ethernet for 3G- IP based for Trial sites for NOWRAS Project.

Above Flow diagram shows how our traffic node works for Native Ethernet.
We just have to follow Steps given in above flow diagram

Step 1)

Configure Hybrid link (E1 and packet)

Step 2) Assigning packet link(s) to Radio Link Inverse Multiplexer for Ethernet (RL-
IME)

1. In the Management Tree, expand NPU3 B.

2. Right-click a RL-IME 1/7/100 and click Configure.
3. Click on Packet Link 1/2/1 and shift it from Available Packet Links to
Assigned Packet Links as shown in figure below.

Step 3) Activating Ethernet Switch

1. In the Management Tree, expand Ethernet.

2. Right-click Ethernet Switch.
3. Click Configure and then click General.
4. In the Switch Mode list, click 802.1Q.
5. Set the other parameters. For more information about the parameters, see

Step 3^*) Configuring LAG (If required)

Link Aggregation Group (LAG) is supported by NPU3 B. LAG aggregates several external Ethernet links
into one logical link, and provides line protection.

Note:
Only switch ports that have no VLANs connected can be included in the LAG.

1. In the Management Tree, expand Ethernet.

2. Right-click Ethernet Switch.
3. Click Configure and then click LAG.
4. Click to add a new row.
5. In the Master Port column, click and select the port that should be the master port. The master
port carries (here port 3) the configuration for the LAG.
6. In the Member Ports column, click and select the ports that should be included. The master port
(here port 4) cannot be excluded from this group.
7. On the File menu, click Save to apply changes.
8. Configure LAN and WAN according to the setup.

For more information, see the following diagrams

Step 4) Configuring WAN

After assigning packet link, WAN is created automatically that needs to be connected to switch port.

1. In the Management Tree, expand Ethernet and WAN Interfaces.

2. Right-click a WAN interface.
3. Click Configure and then click General.
4. In the Connect To list, select a switch port. (Here it is port 2 in diagram)
5. Set the other parameters. For more information about the parameters, see the following diagram
6. On the File menu, click Save to apply changes.

Configuring switch port for WAN

1. In the Management Tree, expand Ethernet and Ethernet Switch.

2. Right-click a Switch Port and click Configure.
3. In the Port Role list, select I-NNI . I-NNI is selected by default if the port is
connected to a WAN interface.
4. On the File menu, click Save to apply changes.
5. Set the parameters. For more information about the parameters, see the
following diagram
6. On the File menu, click Save to apply changes.

STEP 6) Connecting LAN to Switch port (here port 9)

The LAN interface can only be connected to a switch port if the Ethernet Switch is
active,

1. In the Management Tree, expand Ethernet and LAN Interfaces.

2. Right-click a LAN interfaces and click Configure.
3. In the Connect To list, select a switch port.
4. In the Admin Status list, select up.
5. Set the other parameters. For more information about the parameters, see

Step 7) Configuring LAN switch port (here port 1)

1. In the Management Tree, expand Ethernet and Ethernet Switch.

2. Right-click a Switch Port and select Configure.
3. If the Port Role is not already set to UNI, select it in the list and click Save
on the File menu. UNI is selected by default if the port is connected to a LAN
interface but we should verify it.
4. Set the parameters. For more information about the parameters, see
following diagram
