Chapter 5 EVPLAN Service Configuration using Station by Station Method
5.1 Laboratory Network Topology Introduction
The network topology diagram is as follows, the network elements (NEs) consist of 5 OptiX OSN 3500. The basic topology is form from a four NEs two-fiber bidirectional multiplex section protection ring with a non-protection chain. Pair slot of slot #7 and #12 is used in each NE in the ring network; slot
#7 is connected to slot #12 in the next NE. A non-protection chain is form from NE A slot #6 connected to NE E slot #12. The GNE and board slot number can be changed according to the actual situation during the configuration. One N2EFS4 board is configured in every NE and the actual slot number for each board is shown as follows. The slot number can be flexibly adjusted according to actual configuration situation.

5.2 Service Requirement
Headquarters of company H, H1 is located at NE A while branches of company H, H2 and H3 are located at NE B and NE D respectively. This is the same for company G, headquarters G1 is located at NE A and its branches G2 and G3 are located at NE B and NE D respectively. The headquarters need to have Ethernet service communication with their respective branches; furthermore the branches need to have Ethernet service communication between branches within the same company. Each of the company needed a bandwidth of 6Mbits/s.
5.3 Parameters Description
The Ethernet services of the convergence node are received from an external port and tagged with the corresponding VLAN IDs. After the services are forwarded to an internal port through Layer 2 switching, the VLAN IDs are stripped and then the services are transparently transmitted in the SDH network. In this way, the node communicates with a remote node.
The Ethernet LAN services of company G:
− The Ethernet LAN services of company G occupy the first to third VC-12 timeslots of the first VC-4 (VC4-1:VC12:1-3) on the SDH link from NE A to NE B and first to third VC-12 timeslots of the first VC-4 (VC4-1:VC12:1-3) on the SDH link from NE A to NE D.
− The Ethernet LAN service between NE A and NE B is added and dropped by using the first to third VC-12 timeslots of the first VC-4 (VC4-1:VC12:1-3) on the N1EFS4 board of NE A and the first to third VC-12 timeslots of the fourth VC-4 (VC4-4:VC12:1-3) on the N1EFS4 board of NEB.

− The Ethernet LAN service between NE A and NE D is added and dropped by using the fourth to sixth VC-12 timeslots of the first VC-4 (VC4-1:VC12:4-6) on the N1EFS4 board of NE A and the first to third VC-12 timeslots of the fourth VC-4 (VC4-4:VC12:1-3) on the N1EFS4 board of NE D.
The Ethernet LAN services of company H:
− The Ethernet LAN services of company H occupy the fourth to sixth VC-12 timeslots of the first VC-4 (VC4-1:VC12:4-6) on the SDH link from NE A to NE B and the third to sixth VC-12 timeslots of the first VC-4 (VC4-1:VC12:4-6) on the SDH link from NE A to NE D.
− The Ethernet LAN service between NE A and NE B is added and dropped by using the seventh to ninth VC-12 timeslots of the first VC-4 (VC4-1:VC12:7-9) on the N1EFS4 board of NEA and the fourth to sixth VC-12 timeslots of the fourth VC-4 (VC4-4:VC12:4-6) on the N1EFS4 board of NE B.
− The Ethernet LAN service between NE A and NE D is added and dropped by using the tenth to twelfth VC-12 timeslots of the first VC-4 (VC4-1:VC12:10-12) on the N1EMS4 board of NE A and the fourth to sixth VC-12 timeslots of the fourth VC-4 (VC4-4:VC12:4-6) on the N1EFS4 board of NED.

adopts the SVL learning mode, all the VLANs share the same MAC address table. That is, the bridge learns and forwards the packets according to the MAC address of the user packets only. The information in the VLAN tags of the user packets, however, is not considered in the learning and forwarding process.) Take note that the VB name must be set, the VB name “AB_LAN” was set as shown below. Select the correct parameters and click “Configure Mount”.
