System Architecture
Working Principle
ZXMSG 5200 operating principles are shown in Figure 3, the dotted line frames present the card functions. The whole system includes two switching networks: TDM switching network is used for traditional POTS, ISDN and DDN applications Ethernet switching network is used for IP packet switching and multiplexing.
Figure 3
IP network
ZXMSG 5200 working principle is as follows: Narrowband traffic from POTS interface enters TDM switching module of main control card (i.e. ICS). TDM switch performs circuit-switching on the voice signals and send them to voice compression module. MPRB board which performs voice compression function converts voice traffic into IP packets and send them to Ethernet switching module. Ethernet switching chip switches the IP packets and send them to CNIC sub-card for network address translation. After network address translation, IP packets enter the IP network through an uplink interface after Ethernet switching. Broadband data from xDSL or xPON interface enters main control card Ethernet switching chip and directly goes to IP network through an uplink interface.

LC: Line Card, including narrowband line card and broadband line card TSLC: Test Subscriber Line Card ICS: Control and Switch board, including EICS, GIS, GISX, etc MPRB: Packet processing and resource board CNIC: Network address translation module
The system can either receive the BITS clock signal or extract a clock from the E1 interface of V5. Then the Control Switch board provides 8KHz or 2MHz clock to each board and the TSLC. The TDM bus performs narrowband voice multiplexing and DDN service multiplexing. The two Control Switch boards use an active/standby mode to connect with each board and the TSLC.

EMS provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) access. Web provides a web access to MSG5200. CLI provides a command line access to MSG5200.
6.1
GUI
ZTE develops the NetNumen N31 Integrated Element Management System that adopts the advanced EMS architecture, provides a complete set of Java-based trans-platform development tools, modules and APIs. As a highly customized, carrier-class, transplatform integrated EMS with the bottom-to-up design, the NetNumen N31 can be easily integrated with multiple third-party systems, and provides a comprehensive solution for network management purpose. ZTE owns the complete intellectual property of this NetNumen N31 system, and has adopted multiple patent technologies to improve its functions. As required, the system can fast, flexibly, conveniently and economically manage different NEs, bringing about good social and economic benefits for the operators. Its flexible expandability ensures smooth system upgrade during system expansion or during addition of new network equipment so that it has the minimum impact on the existing system. The NetNumen N31 EMS is an integrated EMS that currently manages different data equipment of ZTE in the backbone layer, the convergence layer, and the access layer.
6.1.1
6.1.1.1
System Structure
Distributed Processing Structure
The NetNumen N31 EMS adopts the 3-level client/server structure, which is a typical distributed application system, composed of three parts: The database server, the EMS server and the EMS client, as shown in Figure 15. The EMS client exchanges information with the managed EMS equipment and accesses the database via the EMS server.
63
The Java application client provides all EMS functions and has good user friendly feature. The system server adopts Java and can run on multiple OS platforms, such as Windows and UNIX ones. The system provides support for multiple database systems (such as Oracle and SQL Server) via the standard database access interface JDBC. The database system can run on the same server platform together with the EMS server, or it can run on an independent server platform. The information flow of the system starts from the time when user information is received from the client. After operation rights authentication and input check, it is transferred to the server for processing. The server exchanges information with the NE and then is synchronized to the database data or directly accesses the database before returning the results to the client. Therefore, the client and the server cover all the system management functions.

EMS Networking
EMS Data Channels
To ensure that the EMS can stably manage the equipment in it, reliable EMS channels must be provided for the EMS. The EMS channels generally fall into two kinds: Inband EMS channels and outband EMS channels. Since the TCP/IP is adopted as the transmission EMS protocol between the EMS and the managed equipment, the only standard for judging the effectiveness of the EMS channels is to check if TCP/IP links are established between the EMS (the EMS server) and the managed equipment, whether the inband or outband channels. A simple method is to use the ICMP Ping tool to judge so. In-band EMS
The NetNumen N31 manages data products, these products themselves can provide inband data channels for EMS information, therefore, the SNMP-based management information does not need the establishment of a DCN network, and instead, EMS data are transmitted together with service data in the same data network. Since there is no need to establish a special DNC network for the EMS, the inband EMS brings low cost and is easy to construct, but its stability varies with the reliability of the equipment itself because it uses the channels provided by the equipment. In addition, if the network structure is complex with too many layers in the case of inband EMS, many
69
factors will affect the transmission of EMS information and may cause the instability of the EMS channels. Because the EMS adopts the centralized management mode, the EMS data of all the managed equipment are converged at the EMS, where the data volume is tremendous. Therefore, we can consider configuring a standalone router in the EMS center to transmit all the EMS data and avoid affecting the backbone equipment. Outband EMS
In many application cases, standalone data channels (outband) are needed for the equipment configurations to ensure the reliability of the equipment configurations. The outband management mode improves the reliability of the EMS. Because the EMS data are transmitted through the data network established by the managed equipment in the case of using the inband channels, the fault information will not be able to be reported timely and the EMS thus cannot timely monitor the network and send personnel to repair the faults when faults occur to some node equipment to cause the link break of the data channels. In contrast, in the outband management mode, users can log in to each node to observe the running status of the node equipment and configure it to shoot the troubles once the network performance is found abnormal. Since the outband channels are separated from the data network, the inband management channels are mutually complementary to the outband management channels to ensure the reliability of the EMS. The outband channels are generally implemented via the existing data network, for example, the DCN network in the 97 Project. Or the EMS can also connect the serial port of the managed NE via MODEM through the dialup network to implement remote configuration based on man-machine commands.
6.1.4.2
Centralized Management
The NetNumen N31 is an EMS constructed over the data communication network. It can maintain and manage all kinds of network equipment in a centralized manner in a broad area and complex application environment. The centralized management mode is generally used for the networking, that is, the EMS manages plenty of equipment distributed in the managed network in a centralized manner. In the centralized management mode, the EMS is composed of the client and the server and the whole managed network has only one server that exchanges management information with all the managed equipment. In contrast, there may be multiple clients and they connect with the server to implement man-machine interactions with users but cannot directly connect the equipment. The client configurations may take the following two modes: Local client and remote client. Local client: Both the client and the server are located in the same LAN and they implement the centralized management of the entire network together. Remote client: The client is connected with the server via the WAN and can be located in the remote equipment room to manage the local equipment by dividing management domains. Also, the remote client does not directly connect the managed equipment.
70
The remote client networking can implement hierarchical management in the centralized management mode, as shown in Figure 16. When the system manages a network across multiple domains, the network is split into several subnets (generally these subnets are divided according to the areas or the equipment type) and all the equipment in the network are connected to the upper-level EMS to exchange management information with the EMS. In the upper-level EMS center, administrators can monitor the running status of the entire network (including several subnets) through the local terminals. The lower-level EMS center for managing the subnets is extended from the remote client in the upper-level EMS center to the local client to monitor the local subnet. In the lowerlevel EMS center, no EMS server is configured but there are only management terminals to exchange management information with all the equipment in the local subnet via the EMS sever in the upper-level EMS center. In the EMS server, management rights can be set according to the management area and content, so that the management terminals in the lower-level EMS can only access the subnets within its management right scope after login to the EMS server. The lower-level EMS client can both monitor the network through graphical interactions and output a variety of reports, so this is equivalent to the Manager-Agent mode in terms of management content. When the remote client mode is used to implement hierarchical management, the management rights of different subnets are assigned by the upper-level EMS and the data are uniformly maintained by the upper-level EMS, thus ensuring that the upperlevel EMS can monitor the entire network and correct & reliable data are obtained.
Figure 16 Centralized Management Mode
Two issues exist when the remote client mode is used to implement hierarchical management: The server needs higher performance. Since there is only one EMS server in the entire network to exchange information with all equipment in the network, it has
71
heavy processing load and so its configurations must be quite high. When the server is faulty, the management of the entire network will be affected. It is necessary to provide data transmission channels for the remote clients with high bandwidth requirement (at least 2M).
6.1.5
EMS Interfaces
NBI and SBI in NetNumen N31 are shown as below.
Figure 17 NBI and SBI in NetNumen N31
SBI
NetNumen N31 could manage many type of NE. Base on different requirements, there are many kinds of SBI. SNMP, TR069 and MML are the most usually used SBI. For MSG5200, SBI is based on SNMP. 2 NBI
NBI in NetNumen N31 supports TL1, Syslog, SNMP Trap, etc. Any of these NBI could be interact with OSS easily. When NBI is defined by OSS, usually NetNumen N31 will customize NBI accordingly. NetNumen N31 could customize special NBI for special OSS.
72
At the same time, NetNumen N31 supports some basic NBI functions. These NBI functions could be used in many OSS without any modifications.
6.2
CLI
CLI is another mechanism for interacting with MSG5200 by typing commands to perform specific tasks. Operators can type in a command on a specified line, receive a response back from MSG5200, and then enter another command, and so forth. The CLI of MSG5200 has two login modes and four user modes.
6.2.1
Login Modes
CLI has two login modes: HyperTerminal and Telnet. HyperTerminal provides a convenient way of logging into ZXMSG 5200. ZXMSG 5200 comes with a cross-over serial port cable for accessing HyperTerminal. Telnet is another simple way to access ZXMSG 5200.

User Modes
The NetNumen N31 EMS is an integrated EMS that currently manages different data equipment of ZTE in the backbone layer, the convergence layer, and the access layer. ZXMSG 5200 supports the following access modes: 1 Common User Mode
Common user mode provides the least set of privileges and allows execution of most common commands. Usually, a command able to be executed in Common User Mode is necessarily also available (for execution) in higher modes. This command manual specifies the least-privileged mode for command execution. 2 Management Mode
Management mode provides management operations. Management mode provides higher level of privileges than Common User Mode. Management mode is divided into following two sub-modes: 3 Super Mode
Super Mode is the mode with all privileges. All commands can be executed under Super Mode. 4 Debug Mode

Integrated Access Application
ZXASG5200 is a new generation of multi-service access network and access gateway based on ZTEs Fixed-line 3G@NGN solution, which is located at the edge of NextGeneration Network (NGN). ZXMSG5200 uses a multi-service trunk framework and built-in multi-service transmission platform (MSTP) module with resilient packet ring (RPR) functions to provide efficient access, transmission and convergence of different communications types into a single packet-based form. It is an NGN-oriented access system that is also compatible with the PSTN network thus providing carriers with greater flexibility in constructing fixed-line networks while greatly lowering the risks in implementing next generation networks. It is therefore becoming many carriers first choice for the construction of fixed-line networks, Figure 18 shows the ZXMSG 5200 Integrated Access application in NGN.

PWE3 Application
Pseudo wire is a technology developed (and standardized by the IETF, ITU-T and MEF) for carrying E1, T1, ATM, Frame Relay or Ethernet across the Packet Switched Network (PSN), transparent to all protocols and signaling. Pseudo Wire Emulation Edge-to-Edge (PWE3) is used to integrate multi networks into one. The PWE3 technology can emulate the virtual line on the MPLS edge equipment, put the TDM/ATM services into the MPLS tunnel and transmit them over the MPLS network. ZXMSG 5200 provides PWE3 interface to terminate the low-speed TDM services and adapts the services to the IP/MPLS network. Figure 20 shows the PWE3 application in ZXMSG 5200.
