Network management is the general term used to define the process by which one (or more management systems) controls and manages a network e.g. composed of transport and access equipment. In order to accomplish the network management, the communication must be established between each network element and its corresponding management system. The collective term for all these communication paths is "DCN - Data Communication Network". The management data are transported via DCN communication paths. These management data are messages from management systems to network elements and vice versa. The data could be alarms protection switching events, performance data, configuration commands measurements
Purpose: This document describes the management features of the NSN IP Radio equipments in the most common DCN design scenarios. The DCN network scenarios of this document are typical and just shall illustrate the available DCN Network Elements. The NEs may be used in many other combinations and mixtures. Being dependent from different network topologies, it is impossible to describe all the inter-working cases. . Scope: The Scope of the guideline includes: Dimensioning: This document contains information about MW NEs and describes how they are connected. It explains their function within the DCN Scenarios. Inter-working: The goal of this document is to provide a short guideline for the inter-working between the different types of MW Network Elements
The following is not-within the scope of this guideline: Detailed planning aspects: The NEs may be used in many other combinations and mixtures. Being dependent from different network topologies, it is impossible to describe all the possible DCN Scenarios. Optimization
4. VBUS Interface: 128 Kbit/s (only for SRAL XD Plugin SVR 3.5 and onwards) 5. 6. SRAL Ethernet Interface: 10 Mbit/s SRALXD Ethernet Interface: 10/100 Mbit/s
In the common networks, the gateway/grooming stations are generally provided with Routers and Dual-Q Adapters, then the Ethernet Interface is used. In the remote stations no additional devices are commonly present, then the D-external or the V-BUS Interface will be preferred. F-interface is generally used for single spurs appended to existing Network Elements where no extra-hardware is required. For connection through Ethernet interface a HUB/LAN-Switch with both RJ45 and BNC interfaces should be provided (the SRAL must be equipped with a Q-Adapter/DualQ-Adapter card). For connection through D-Ext channel a V.11 cable (Siemens coded) should be used between the SRAL and the SRAL XD (the SRAL must be equipped with D-external card). For connection through F-interface a RS232 cable (Siemens coded) should be used between the SRAL and the SRAL XD (no need for extra hardware).
Here below some examples of Network Topology about the requirement to use in case of a station with or without Router/DualQ-Adapter and a final example for a general network topology.
Figure 1 - Station with Router/Dual Q-Adapter and Multiport Hub RJ45 BNC (1)
Router
SRAL XD and SRAL are connected through a HUB/LAN-Switch with both RJ45 and BNC interfaces. SRAL must be equipped with Q-Adapter/DualQ-Adapter card (or connected through V-Bus to a stand-alone DualQ-Adapter equipment). The IP Addresses of SRAL XD, Router and DualQ-Adapter Ethernet interfaces must belong to the same sub-network. The IP addresses of DualQ-Adapter V-Bus interface and SRAL controller must belong to the same sub-network, different from the Ethernet previous one. The IP Addresses of NEs connected through radio link must belong to different subnetworks
RJ 45 Cable
The following picture describes a connection through V-BUS cable that is not possible because of the use of the V-BUS and Ethernet Interfaces on the SRAL XD at the same time.

When no MultiPort HUB RJ45/BNC Converters are available, it is still possible to connect SRAL and SRAL XD (rel. 3.5) devices through a V-BUS cable as described in the following picture. This connection, however, is deprecated: SRAL directly connected to the RJ45/BNC Converter, in fact, must forward the traffic generated by the other device(s) and this could overload the SRAL.

Station 1
SRAL XD and SRAL are connected through a V-BUS cable (for SRAL XD 3.5 only).
SRAL must be equipped with Q-Adapter/DualQ-Adapter card (or connected through V-Bus to a stand-alone DualQ-Adapter equipment). The IP addresses of Router and DualQ-Adapter Ethernet interfaces must belong to the same sub-network. The IP Addresses of DualQ-Adapter V-Bus interface, SRAL and SRAL XD must belong to the same sub-network, different from the Ethernet previous one. The IP Addresses of NEs connected through radio link must belong to different subnetworks

Station 2
Connect SRAL XD and SRAL using a V11 cable (coded by Siemens). The SRAL must be equipped with the optional D-External card. This optional card is housed in the same slot of the DualQAdapter card. In the SRAL XD use one of the two D-Connectors (named User/Dext) available on the front of the shelf. The chosen channel must be configured via software using the IP SRAL Compatible option in the related NE Parameters field. The IP Addresses of SRAL XD and SRAL connected through the V11 cable must belong to different sub-networks as for the radio link rules. The IP Addresses of NEs connected through radio link must belong to different sub-networks.
Summary Management Centre: Default gateway or static routes are necessary on NetViewer server in order to manage the NEs.
Station 1: The IP Addresses of SRALXD, DualQ-Adapter (Eth. interface) and Router Ethernet interface must belong to the same sub-network. Station 4: The IP Addresses of SRALXD and SRAL, connected through V11 cable, must belong to different sub-networks as for the radio link rules. Station 6: The IP Address of the SRAL XD connected by F-interface to the SRAL must be equal to the SRAL IP Address plus one in case they are in same subnet. The Ethernet interface of the SRAL XD must be disabled. The speed of F interface must be set to 19.2 Kbit/s (both NEs). Station 8: The IP Addresses of SRALXD (rel 3.5) and SRAL must belong to the same sub-network.
