10.2.1. OpenScape 4000 LAN Segment Previous topic Parent topic Child topic Next topic

The OpenScape 4000 LAN segment is that part of the customer network in which the IP components of the central system and direct link (i.e. not via router) access points are installed.

Figure 177. OpenScape 4000 LAN segment

ag009af9-2.png
ADD-SIPCO:
NETADDR=192.168.1.0,
NETMASK=255.255.255.0,
 
IPMODE=IPV4,
DEFRT=192.168.1.254,
 
CCAADDR=192.168.1.1,
CCBADDR=192.168.1.2,
 
SURVNET=192.168.15.0;
At maximum capacity, a configuration requires a considerable number of IP addresses in this network, namely.
  • CC-A, CC-B, ADP:
3
  • OpenScape 4000 Assistant:
1
  • OpenScape 4000 CSTA:
1
  • HG 3500:
Up to 83
  • Directly linked HG 3575:
Up to 83
  • Survivability routers:
Up to 10
Therefore, it is advisable to configure a dedicated LAN segment for the central part of a large OpenScape 4000 installation and not permit any more nodes within that segment (particularly file servers, etc.)
For demo installations in which the OpenScape 4000 LAN segment remains isolated, IP addresses from the private address range pursuant to RFC 1597 can be used. These do not require international coordination. For example, the range from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.255 with netmask 255.255.255.0 can be recommended as the Class C address range.

Generation

Addresses (LSNET)

The first step in configuring IP distributed architecture involves the configuration of the OpenScape 4000 LAN segment.
Configuration:
assistant-2.gif
Configuration Management > System Data > IPDA > IPDA System Data
Click Search, enter the required IP addresses and Save.
comwin-2.gif
ADD-SIPCO:NETADDR=192.168.1.0,NETMASK=255.255.255.0, DEFRT=192.168.1.254,IPMODE=IPV4,CCAADDR=192.168.1.1, CCBADDR=192.168.1.2,SURVNET=192.168.15.0;
IMPORTANT:
Although the CCA/CCB address already had to be entered when the configuration was performed with the LAN Wizard, it has to be configured again here with AMO SIPCO.
If an isolated configuration is to be set up, the default router must be configured with the zero address 0.0.0.0. In this case, only “direct link“ access points can be configured (see Section 2.2.2, “Configuring a “Direct Link“ Access Point”). In Figure 12 “OpenScape 4000 LAN segment”, Router Ra is the default router.
If there is no second processor, the CCBADDR parameter need not be specified.
The SURVNET parameter can be dispensed with if signaling survivability is not required. If, however, the customer has purchased signaling survivability, i.e. if the corresponding license counter is greater than zero, then a survivability network address (see section Signaling Survivability) must be specified. This can also be achieved with a dummy entry (zero address 0.0.0.0), though the signaling survivability function is not available in this case.
The licenses for signaling survivability can be queried as follows:
assistant-2.gif
Configuration Management > HiPath Inventory Management
> HIM System Data > Feature > Marketing Units
Click Search > Sales Features tab > Signaling Survivability entry
comwin-2.gif
DISP-CODEW; “SIGNALING SURVIVABILITY“ entry
The values specified with ADD-SIPCO are immediately valid.
IMPORTANT:
Prior to ADD-SIPCO, use ping to check that the IP addresses given to you by the administrator are reachable. CCAADDR and CCBADDR must not be reachable as this would indicate that the corresponding address had already been assigned. DEFRT must be reachable (if not 0.0.0.0).
IMPORTANT:
Following ADD-SIPCO the active processor must be reachable in its network segment. The standby processor in duplex systems does not respond (as long as it is in standby mode). Since routes have not yet been configured, the active processor cannot answer ping requests from other network segments!

Change:

All parameters configured here can be changed later.

IMPORTANT:
Changing the IP address has multifarious effects on a running system. If changes are necessary, a strict change sequence must be complied with, or else the access points will be irrevocably disconnected. In this context, see Section 2.14, “IP Address Changes”.

Delete:

If, for instance, IPDA is to be completely removed from the system after a test, all access points and HG 3500, as well as the SIPCO configuration, also have to be deleted after the uninstall routine is completed. The links/LAN modules for the OpenScape 4000 LAN segment can then also be removed. You must restart the system.

d
Netzadresse des Survivability Netzes
Die Netzmaske für das Survivability Netz ist mit 255.255.255.0 ebenso fest vorgegeben wie die Adressierung der einzelnen Knoten. Die Survivability-Router 1..10 haben die Adressen 1..10, die Access Points 17..99 die Adressen 17..99 im letzten Byte. Die vorgegebene Netzmaske schränkt die Klasse (A,B oder C) der Netzadresse nicht ein. Das Survivability Netz kann ein Subnetz eines Klasse A Netzes mit Netzmaske 255.255.255.0 sein.
 
SURVNET
e
Network Address of the Survivability Network
The netmask for the Survivability Network is fixed to 255.255.255.0 as well as the individual node adresses. The survivability routers 1..10 are addressed 1..10, Access Points 17..99 have address 17..99 in the last byte. The given netmask does not limitate the class (A,B or C) of the network address. The Survivability Network can be a subnet of a class A network with netmask 255.255.255.0.

Quality of Service Parameters (DIFFSERV)

The following parameters can be set:
  1. For QoS support on Layer 2 to IEEE 802.1 q/q [VLAN, VLANID]
    • For QoS support on Layer 3 to IETF RFC 2474 (DiffServ) [TOSPL, TOSSIGNL]
    • the lowest port used for payload connections (UDP/RTP+RTCP) [UDPPORT]
    The Ethernet interface setting must be identical for all connected interface partners (CC-A and CC-B or LAN switches, routers).
    IMPORTANT:
    The setting of a fixed interface partner leads to problems with the “Autonegotiate“ setting of the other partner. Caution: Incorrect settings cannot normally be detected by the system and therefore go unreported. If one device is operating in full duplex and the other in half duplex mode, this is not immediately noticeable. Where there is a high payload, the device set to half duplex will report a higher number of late collisions and the packet delay will increase sharply. If the LAN ports with which CC-A and CC-B are connected do not support autone­gotiation, or if autonegotiation does not function reliably, the Ethernet interfaces of the central processors can be set to fixed values.
    VLAN tagging should only be activated when all routers in the network segment of the access point support VLAN tagging. The same applies for the DiffServ CodePoints. If the routers do not support DiffServ, the standard TOS values must be configured without DiffServ. If DiffServ is supported, but not the CodePoints, the values specified by the network carrier must be configured.
    Given that some network component vendors only support prioritization with VLAN ID > 0 pursuant to IEEE 802.1 p/q, the VLAN ID can also be set. The HG 3575 module generally sets the priority bits when the VLAN option is activated. For values, see Table 3 “TOS values” in document “Gateways HG 3500 and HG 3575”. According to the standard, the VLAN ID must then be set to zero, which also happens for the default setting.
    The parameters for configuring the TOS bytes for the various traffic types are provisioned with the DiffServ CodePoints pursuant to the company’s QoS Recommendation. VLAN tagging pursuant to IEEE 802.1 p/q is deactivated (VLAN=NO).
    If VLAN tagging pursuant to IEEE 802.1 p/q is supported in the OpenScape 4000 LAN segment, it can be activated as follows:
    assistant-2.gif
    Configuration Management > System Data > IPDA > IPDA System Data
    Click Search, activate the VLAN Tagging checkbox under Type of Service on the System Data tab, then Save.
    comwin-2.gif
    CHANGE-SIPCO:TYPE=DIFFSERV,VLAN=YES;
    If DiffServ is not supported, the TOS bytes must be configured with content pursuant to RFC 791 (see Table 3 “TOS values” in document “Gateways HG 3500 and HG 3575”).
    assistant-2.gif
    Configuration Management > System Data > IPDA > IPDA System Data
    Click Search, enter the TOS values under Type of Service on the System Data tab, then Save.
    comwin-2.gif
    CHANGE-SIPCO:TYPE=DIFFSERV,TOSPL=16,TOSSIGNL=20;
    If either the VLAN or VLANID parameter has been changed, an update must be performed on the hard disk and then the system must be restarted.

    EXEC-UPDAT:BP,ALL; EXEC-REST:SYSTEM,RESTART;

Note:

VLAN tagging changes the packet header. Many L2 switches or routers understand either packets with or without tagging. In other words,
  • the relevant switches/routers also have to be adjusted.
  • while the settings do not correspond, it is possible that packets will not be transmitted.
    • the conversion of the HG 3500 system interrupts payload connections
    • the conversion of the OpenScape 4000 CCs interrupts the contact to all access points
    A change of TOSPL is directly loaded on all HG 3500s and becomes effective immediately, without the operation of the modules having to be interrupted.
    The parameter TOSSIGNL does not become effective until the connection for which the TOS value is set has been cleared down and then set up again.
    The disconnection and re-establishment of the links between the OpenScape 4000 central system and access point can be realized through
  • a soft restart on the OpenScape 4000 system, which then affects all subscribers

The soft restart can only be performed in expert mode.

UDPPORT
d
Einstellung des Basis-Ports (niedrigste Portnummer) für Payloadverbindungen im IPDA-System
Für jede Payload-Verbindung werden an den beteiligten Gateways HG 3500 bzw. HG 3575 ein UDP Port für RTP und ein weiterer für RTCP benötigt. Die Portnummern werden in einem Bereich von [UDPPORT .. UDPPORT+247] vergeben.
RTP belegt dabei immer eine gerade Nummer, RTCP die nächst höhere ungerade.

Value range: [4352 .. 65038], only even numbers allowed.

Additional parameters

With ADD-SIPCO, additional system parameters are also set to default values which can be changed by means of CHANGE-SIPCO. These parameters are broken down into 2 groups.

System timing (TIMING)

Under TYPE=TIMING, central values of the system timing can be set for the monitoring of IP links. If the values set here are exceeded, the system switches the communication between OpenScape 4000 and access point to the “signaling survivability“ modem link or the access point is temporarily put out of operation.
In order to render the changed values in the affected access points effective, they all have to be restarted with

IMPORTANT:
Connections are cleared down without further warning. Prior to the EXEC-USSU:UPDATAP, the configuration must be updated on the system hard disk. Otherwise, the data on the system would conflict with the data on the HG 3575 when the system is reloaded and could only be synchronized again with EXEC-USSU:UPDATAP,LTU number,UL.

PINGTIME
d
Zeitdauer, während der nach einer schlechten VoIP Payload-Verbindung zwischen 2 HG 3500/HG 3575 die Verbindungsqualität getestet wird.
Ist die Verbindungsqualität bei Beendigung einer Verbindung zwischen 2 HG 3500/75 als schlecht markiert, wird für die Zeitdauer PINGTIME die Verbindung getestet. Fällt während dieser Zeit die Prüfung gut aus, wird die Prüfung abgebrochen und die Verbindung zwischen den betroffenen HG 3500/75 sofort wieder auf gut gesetzt. Ist das Ergebnis schlecht, wird während der gesamten Zeit weiter geprüft und erst nach Ablauf der PINGTIME die Verbindung auf gut gesetzt wird. Weitere Informationen siehe Figure 30 “Blocks the IP connection for payload due to „Bad Quality“”.
Der Wert wird in [s], Sekunden angegeben.
Wenn Payload Survivability konfiguriert ist, wird empfohlen, das Intervall des Parameters PINGTIME auf einen höheren Wert als den Standardwert von 60 Sekunden zu ändern.
Z. B. 15 Minuten ( 900 Sekunden)
 
PINGTIME
e
Time interval for testing the payload quality between 2 HG 3500/HG 3575 after a VoIP payload connection has been terminated with quality marked bad.
If the payload quality for a connection between 2 HG 350075 is marked as bad upon connection termination, the connection is going to be tested for the duration of PINGTIME. With positive test results during this time interval the test is stopped immediately and the connection is marked good again. With negative results the tests will be continued until PINGTIME expires. After that the connection will be marked good again. For further Information see Figure 30 “Blocks the IP connection for payload due to „Bad Quality“”
The value is entered in [s], seconds.
When Payload Survivability is configured, it is recommended to change the PINGTIME parameter interval to a value higher than the default 60 seconds.
E.g. 15 minutes (900 seconds)
 
RESTIME
d
Zeit zwischen einem Schnittstellenfehler aus dem “Keep Alive” der Signalisierungsverbindung und dem Rücksetzen des Access Points (Wartezeit bis AP-Restart).
Wird ein Schnittstellenfehler des “Keep Alive” der Signalisierungsverbindung gemeldet, startet das Zeitintervall RESTIME.
Nach dem Schnittstellenfehler können keine neuen Gespräche vom/zu den betroffenen AP aufgebaut werden; bestehende Verbindungen bleiben abhängig vom IP-Netzwerk bestehen, jedoch kann es zu Nullwegen (100% Paktetloss) kommen.
Nach Ablauf des Zeitintervalls wird der Access Point zurückgesetzt. Alle Payload-Verbindungen gehen verloren, es sind keine neuen Payload-Verbindungen möglich, bis es der OpenScape 4000 Zentrale wieder gelingt, Kontakt zum Access Point herzustellen.
Der Wert wird in [s], Sekunden angegeben.
 
RESTIME
e
Time between an interface fault specified in the "Keep Alive" message from the signaling link and the access point reset.
The RESTIME interval starts when an interface fault is reported in the "Keep Alive" message from the signaling link.
New calls cannot be set up from/to the relevant AP following the interface fault; existing connections are maintained depending on the IP network, but null paths can occur (100% packet loss).
The access point is reset when the time interval expires. All payload connections are lost and no payload connections are available until the OpenScape 4000 central system succeeds in establishing contact with the access point.
The value is specified in seconds [s].
 
SUPVTIME
d
Maximale Zeitdauer, während der auf ein Paket auf der Überwachungsverbindung (Supervisory-Verbindung) gewartet wird.
Nur bei aktivierter Signaling Survivability. Auf der Supervisory-Verbindung werden in sehr kurzen Intervallen “Keep Alive” Meldungen gesendet. Kommt für länger als SUPVTIME kein Paket an, wird der Weg über das IP-Netz als gestört betrachtet, die Modemverbindung zum Access Point aktiviert und dieser Weg für die Signalisierungsverbindung zwischen OpenScape 4000 und Access Point verwendet.
Der Wert wird in [s], Sekunden angegeben.
 
SUPVTIME
e
Maximum time waiting for a packet on the Supervisory connection
Only if Signaling Survivability is activated. On the Supervisory connection “keep alive” messages are sent in very short intervals. If SUPVTIME exceeds without a packet arrived, the way through the IP networks is considered as disturbed. The modem connection to the Access Point is activated. The signaling between OpenScape 4000 and Access Point is routed via the modem connection.
The value is entered in [s], seconds.
 
APESWDLY
d
APE Umschalteverzögerung
nur wirksam mit dem Leistungsmerkmal AP Emergency!
siehe “Access Point Emergency” > Section 2.10, “Defining the Switchover Delay”
Das Umschalten eines Access Points in den Emergency Mode kann um eine konfigurierbare Zeit verzögert werden.
Es ist entweder Null - “schalte sofort“ einzutragen, oder die Zeit, welche von der OpenScape 4000 Zentrale benötigt wird, um einen RELOAD durchzuführen.
Der Wert wird in Minuten angegeben. Wertebereich [0 .. 99].
 
APESWDLY
e
APE Switch Over Delay
only effective with the feature AP Emergency!
see “Access Point Emergency” > Section 2.10, “Defining the Switchover Delay”
The switch-over of an Access Point into Emergency Mode can be delayed for a configurable amount of time.
It shall either be set to zero - “switch immediately“, or to the amount of time which the central OpenScape 4000 system needs to perform a RELOAD.
The value is entered in minutes. Range [0 .. 99].
 
ALVTIME
d
Maximale Zeitdauer für den “Keep Alive” Mechanismus der Signalisierungsverbindungen zwischen OpenScape 4000 und den Access Points.
Vergeht diese Zeit ohne Antwort, wird ein Schnittstellenfehler gemeldet und der Access Point wird aus der ATTENDANCE LIST genommen (F5308, LTUC OUT OF ATTENDANCE LIST).
Der Wert wird in [s], Sekunden angegeben. Wertebereich [20 .. 90]
Hinweis:
Wenn Signaling Survivability konfiguriert ist, muss dieser Parameter auf einen Wert eingestellt werden, der größer ist als die Maximalzeit für den kompletten Aufbau der Signalisierungsverbindung über Modem!
 
ALVTIME
e
Maximum time interval for the “keep alive” mechanism of the signaling connections between OpenScape 4000 and the Access Points.
If there is no answer during this interval, an interface error will be reported and the access point is taken out of the ATTENDANCE LIST (F5308, LTUC OUT OF ATTENDANCE LIST).
The value is entered in [s], seconds. Range [20 .. 90].
Note:
When Signaling Survivability is configured, this parameter must be set to a value greater than the maximium duration of the complete setup of signaling connection via modem!

Payload Quality (PLQUAL)

Under TYPE=PLQUAL the limiting values for monitoring the payload quality, i.e. the voice links, are configured. If the upper limits are exceeded, additional voice links between the respective modules (HG 3500 and/or 3575) are established via the alternative route, provided one has been configured. If the lower limits are exceeded, the standard route is returned to the IP network.
The delay values only ever refer to one direction (A -> B or B -> A), and not to the “round-trip delay“ (A -> B -> A). They are derived from the Real Time Transmission Control Protocol.

e
Upper limit for the fraction of lost packets on VoIP payload connections between 2 HG 3500/HG 3575.
When the fraction of lost packets exceeds this value, the connection between the 2 involved HG 3500/75 is marked as bad. Future connections between these HG 3500/75 will be routed via an alternate path (if set up) until the connection is marked good again.
The value is the ratio of lost to sent packages in percent.
