New Features in Releases 9.3.40 to 9.3.53

No new features were introduced in releases 9.3.40 to 9.3.53.

New Features in Release 9.3.40

This section describes the following new features included in Release 9.3.40:

Virtual Trunk Bandwidth Oversubscription

Feeder VCI Restriction Removal

Display Connection Counts

VC Merge

NTM Subrate Trunk Encryptor Synchronization

UXM Trunk and Line Loopback

Single-Ended FCES and Policing

Line and Port Alarm Masking

Trunk VC Shaping

Virtual Trunk Bandwidth Oversubscription

Virtual trunking defines multiple trunks within a single physical trunk interface. Virtual trunking allows the user to allocate as much bandwidth as needed instead of the full T3, E3, OC3, or OC12 bandwidths. Virtual trunking bandwidth refers to the service rate.

Prior to Release 9.3.40, the bandwidth of a virtual trunk (VT) is limited by its allocated portion of the total physical bandwidth at the interface. If a VT on a single interface is not utilizing its allocated share of bandwidth, other VTs cannot use this available bandwidth when their traffic exceeds the configured level. Each of the VTs on a physical interface has a fixed bandwidth which leads to inefficient use of the total bandwidth.

In Release 9.3.40 the purpose of oversubscribing is to allow a VT to utilize up to a maximum configured bandwidth on the physical interface. The sum of individual maximum bandwidths of the VTs on a single physical interface can exceed the actual physical bandwidth available on that interface. If a VT is not utilizing its share of bandwidth, another VT can use the bandwidth.

VT bandwidth oversubscription is applicable to AutoRoute (AR) and PNNI. This feature is available on the BPX switch with the BXM-E card. This feature is not supported on any other BPX card or on the IGX switch.

Functionality

The VTs on a physical interface can be configured with minimum and maximum service rates. The maximum service rate can be oversubscribed. If some connections on one VT burst traffic, they are allowed through on the oversubscribed VT up to the maximum service rate.

By default oversubscription on a VT is disabled, and the minimum and maximum service rates are set to the same value. Whenever the minimum and maximum values are changed by the user to be not equal, oversubscription is implicitly enabled.

By default the minimum and maximum service rates on a VT are set to 3000 cps or to the maximum bandwidth available on the physical interface, whichever is smaller.

VT oversubscription is disabled by making both the minimum and maximum service rates equal.

Configuration Requirements

The trunk on which this feature is to be enabled must be up. The remote end can be a BPX or IGX.

The following restrictions apply to VT oversubscription:

Minimum service rate is less than or equal to the maximum service rate for each VT.

Sum of the minimum service rates of all VTs on a physical interface is less than or equal to the total bandwidth of that physical interface.

Maximum service rate is less than or equal to the total bandwidth of the physical interface for each VT on that physical interface.

The sum of the maximum service rates of all VTs on a physical interface can be greater than the total bandwidth of that physical interface.

AutoRoute Connections

When routing connections over a VT, AutoRoute (AR) searches for the VT which has maximum available bandwidth and routes the connection over that VT. When a connection is routed over an oversubscribed VT, AR uses the minimum service rate to check for available bandwidth.

VSI Partitions

A VSI partition on a VT can be oversubscribed since the VSI partition shares the same virtual interface (VI) as that of the VT on which VSI partition is configured. The VI now has a minimum and a maximum service rate. Thus, connections on a VSI partition can burst up to the maximum VI rate with enough bandwidth on the interface. This maximum VI rate is configured through the cnftrk CLI command.

CLI Additions and Modifications

This section contains the commands that have been modified to support VT bandwidth oversubscription.

cnftrk

The cnftrk command has been modified to allow configuration of minimum and maximum service rates.

VT oversubscription is considered enabled if at least one VT on a active BXM is oversubscribed.

Redundancy

SWSW 9.3.40 uses the following guidelines for Y-cable redundancy (Y-red):

Allow Y-red if only one card supports the feature, and the feature is disabled.

Do not allow Y-red if one card supports the feature, the feature is enabled, and the second card does not support the feature.

Do not enable this feature if Y-red is configured between a card supporting VT bandwidth oversubscription and a card not supporting this feature.

Feeder VCI Restriction Removal

STI cells used by Cisco WAN switches and ATM standard UNI/NNI cells have different header formats. ATM standard cells use a 16-bit VCI address field; whereas, STI cells use a 12-bit VCI field. In STI cells the higher 4 bits of octet 4, which contain the last 4 bits of VCI address in ATM standard cells, contain ForeSight information. Therefore, UNI/NNI cells support 65535 VCI addresses while STI cells can support only 4095 VCI addresses.

Since BNI cards use only STI cells, an ATM network with BNI and non-BNI modules must ensure that VCI address translation occurs whenever a cell moves from an ATM (non-BNI) segment to an STI (BNI) segment and vice-versa. Otherwise, the lower 4 bits of VCI information in the UNI/NNI cell are overwritten with ForeSight information when the cell enters the STI segment. This translation is achieved by shifting the lower twelve VCI bits of an ATM cell left or right when it enters or exits an STI segment.

This feature allows VCI shift to be turned on or off on BXM feeder trunks, enabling them to use the full 65535 VCI UNI/NNI address range. This feature also applies to MPLS which requires a VCI range greater than 4095.

This feature is available on the BPX switch with BXM trunks.

Usage

VCI shift operations perform the following functions:

Shift/no-shift operation is configured using the cnffdr command. The same setting should be chosen at both ends of a connection. When a connection is added, a difference in setting causes a mismatch warning to display.

When the shift option is enabled on a feeder trunk, the VCI value is shifted left by four bits for cells entering the feeder trunk and shifted right by four bits for cells leaving the feeder trunk.

Via nodes get the shift/no-shift configuration from the master and program the trunks accordingly.

If the VCI is less than or equal to 4095 in a VPC, then the connection does not need to be rerouted.

To get the VCI unchanged in a VPC connection, shift must be disabled on all nodes in the path of the connection. The no-shift option must be selected at the master and slave nodes of the connection. Via nodes take on the same shift configuration as the master and must be no-shift if the master node configuration is no-shift.

This feature also works with local connections.

Configuration

By default in Release 9.3.40 BXM feeder trunks have VCI shift disabled. The feeder trunks that exist prior to Release 9.3.40 have the VCI shift enabled by default.

To pass VCI without shift on a connection, the master and slave nodes should be configured as no-shift. The connection should not route over a BNI trunk.

For an existing connection, a change in the shift/no-shift setting is effective after the connection is rerouted. For example, if a node is upgraded from a version of SWSW that does not provide cnffdr support to one that does, any existing connections over BXM feeder trunks shift the VCI for cells passing over the connection.

Use the following guidelines for changing the shift/no-shift setting on a feeder trunk:

All existing connections over this feeder trunk must be manually rerouted for the change to be effective. The shift/no-shift setting should be configured before adding new connections. However, the connection continues to have data continuity if this setting is not configured.

If the feeder at one end is changed to no-shift, then the feeder at other end also should be changed to no-shift.

For a routing trunk, the cnfport command is used to turn shift on or off. For a feeder trunk, shift has to be configured using the cnffdr command or through SNMP.

When new feeder trunks are added on a node running SWSW software with this feature, the trunks come up with shift turned off.

To ensure that the VCI is not changed on a VPC connection, BNI trunks must not be in the path of the connection since BNI trunks use only 12-bit VCI (STI cells).


Note Since the system does not automatically avoid routing over BNI trunks, configure the VPC connections in the network with directed preferred routes over BXM-only paths. If these paths are lost, the connection fails rather than rerouting over a path with a BNI.


CLI Additions and Modifications

This section contains the commands that have been modified to support VCI restriction removal.

cnffdr

The cnffdr command is used to configure shift/no-shift on a BXM feeder trunk. The cnffdr command configures the shift/no-shift setting only under the following conditions:

Trunk must be a BXM trunk.

Trunk must be up.

Trunk must be added as a feeder.

If any of the above conditions are not true, the system displays an error message and prompts for another trunk number.

Syntax:

cnffdr <trunk number> <H|N>

Parameter
Description

<trunk number>

Specifies the slot.port of the feeder trunk.

[H|N]

Enable or disable shift.

H = Shift VCI

N = No-Shift (default)


The following example shows the cnffdr display screen The Feeder trunk field displays the trunk number followed by the type of shelf.

Example 5 cnffdr Command

node TN Cisco BPX 8620 9.3.40 June 12 2002 10:09 PST

Feeder trunk: 1.1 [AAL/5]

Shift: SHIFT ON HCF

This Command: cnffdr 1.1


'H'=SHIFT ON HCF,'N'= NO SHIFT, <H>:N

dspfdrcnf

The dspfdrcnf command displays the shift/no-shift setting on feeder trunks.

Syntax:

dspfdrcnf <trunk number>

Parameter
Description

<trunk number>

Specifies the slot.port of the feeder trunk.


The following example shows the dspfdrcnf display screen:

Example 6 dspfdrcnf Command

node TN Cisco BPX 8620 9.3.40 June 12 2002 10:13 PST

Feeder trunk: 1.1 [AAL/5]

Shift: NO SHIFT

Last Command: dspfdrcnf 1.1

Next Command:

For BNI feeder trunks, the VCI field is copied to an STI cell. The shift/no-shift setting is not applicable. Therefore, for BNI feeders the dspfdrcnf command displays a [-] in the Shift field, shown in the following example.

Example 7 dspfdrcnf Command for BNI Feeders

node TN Cisco BPX 8620 9.3.40 June 11 2002 17:00 PST

Feeder trunk: 3.2 [AXIS]

Shift: -


Last Command: dspfdrcnf 3.2

Next Command:

MIB Addition

This section contains the addition to the atmTrkTable in the switch MIB to support VCI restriction removal.

Table 6 atmTrkTable Addition

MIB Object
Description
Values

atmTrkHcfShift

Value to indicate whether VCI shift is enabled on the trunk.

For no-shift of VCI the value of the SET operation should be disable(2) and for shift the value should be enable(1). The default value is no-shift for BXM feeder trunks.

The object is applicable only for BXM feeder trunks. For ATM ports on other cards this object is not applicable, and the value -1 is returned.

This object is not applicable for routing trunks.

If a SET operation is tried without giving a value, the default value is set for BXM feeder trunks. The request is ignored for routing trunks.

If a SET operation with a given value is tried on a routing trunk, an error is returned.

Access: read-write

1 = enable

2 = disable


SNMP Error Messages

The following error messages are generated under the specified conditions:

Error code -1 (There is no such variable name in this MIB) is returned when SNMP GET or SET is tried on an invalid trunk or on a trunk that is not up.

Error code -1 is returned when SNMP GET is tried on a trunk which is not a feeder trunk.

Error code -2 (A general failure occurred) is returned when SNMP SET is tried on a trunk which is not a feeder trunk.

Redundancy

This section contains redundancy requirements of this feature.

Controller Card Redundancy

Standby updates are applicable for the shift/no-shift parameter setting. The same configuration is available after executing a switchCC. If a switchCC (automatic) occurs when the configuration is changed but the connections are not rerouted, the configuration is available in the new active controller card. For the configuration to be to be effective, a manual reroute must be done after the switchCC.

Y-redundancy and APS

The shift/no-shift configuration is available on redundant cards.

Display Connection Counts

In SWSW Release 9.3.40 the CLI command, dspconcnts, is modified to include the following connection counts:

Number of connection endpoints terminated on the cards and lines.

Number of connection endpoints terminating on ports. The display includes the endpoint counts of the CBR, VBR, ABR, UBR, and Frame Relay connection types that terminate on each active port. The number of VPC and VCC connection endpoints on each port are also displayed.

Number of connections passing over trunks for the node.

CLI Addition

This section contains the command that has been added to support connection counts.

VC Merge

The VC merge feature is already supported on BPX nodes. For more information on this feature, refer to the BPX Installation and Configuration documentation at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/wanbu/bpx8600/9_3_3/iandc/index.htm

On the IGX VC merge feature is supported only on UXM-E cards running firmware ACJ or higher.

This feature allows multiple incoming VCs to be merged in to a single outgoing VC. A UXM enhanced card with the VC merge capability can be configured to allow the merging of frame-based connections into a merged VC. The merged VC is controlled by the VSI controller.

The VC merge feature allows scalability of MPLS networks since one VC is allocated to each destination of each link.

The SWSW allows the configuration of VC merge for an enhanced UXM card through the cnfcdparm command. VC merge can be enabled only if the card supports this feature.

The support of VC merge on a card can be verified using the following commands:

dspcd

dspcdparm

The VC merge feature is supported only for frame-based connections. These connections carry AAL5 frames consisting of multiple cells. The cells from a particular frame must be in an uninterrupted sequence when the frame goes out after merging.

After the node is upgraded to Release 9.3.40, VC merge can be enabled on the UXM-E cards by using the cnfcdparm command. The VC merge configuration parameters are saved in BRAM and are sent to the standby processor card.

Availability of Contiguous LCNs

The UXM card requires 550 contiguous logical channels (LCNs) in the AutoRoute (AR) partition to support this feature. The VC merge configuration request is denied if 550 LCNs are not available on the AR partition. The user is prompted to allocate LCNs on the card if the feature needs to be enabled.

The traffic on the VCs might get affected when this feature is enabled where 550 non-contiguous LCNs are available on the card. A trap is sent to indicate that the card needs to be deactivated and reactivated to enable the feature support. Since deactivation of the card disturbs the traffic, the user is prompted with a Y/N to proceed with the request. After the user enters Y to proceed, the SWSW configures the VC merge feature by sending appropriate commands upon card activation. The user is prompted before the interruption of any data traffic.

Redundancy

The VC merge feature is supported on the Y-cabled UXM-E pair.

Graceful mismatch is supported. A mismatch condition is declared if the VC merge feature is in use, and Y-redundancy is attempted using a card that does not support the feature. In such cases, feature mismatch is declared (see Table 7).

NTM Subrate Trunk Encryptor Synchronization

This feature toggles the DTR lead on an NTM subrate interface backcard for a preconfigured ON and OFF cycle in the case of a disturbance to the trunk. This toggling continues until the trunk alarms clear.

Functions

This feature provides the following functions:

Enables and disables the toggling of the NTMs DTR lead through the cnftrk command.

Configures ON and OFF durations of the NTMs DTR lead through the cnftrk command. The ON and OFF values are in the range of 1 to 128 seconds.

When this feature is enabled, the NTM firmware detects a loss of synchronization by monitoring the following alarms:

Clock loss

Signal loss

Packet loss

Yellow packet received

The firmware then toggles the DTR lead periodically as specified by the ON and OFF times until all the above alarms are cleared. When the alarms are cleared, the firmware restores the state of the DTR lead.

CLI Modifications

This section contains the commands that have been modified to support NTM subrate trunk encryptor synchronization.

cnftrk

DTR toggling is enabled and disabled using the cnftrk command. A DTR toggle on alarm field is displayed for an NTM subrate trunk. Valid values are Y or N.

Fields for configuring ON and OFF duration are DTR secs ON and DTR secs OFF. Valid values for both fields are in the range of 1-128 seconds. Default for DTR secs ON is 29 seconds. Default for DTR secs OFF is 1 second. See the display screen in Example 12.

dsptrk

The dsptrk command is extended to display state of DTR toggling (enabled or disabled) and the ON/OFF durations.

Example 12 dsptrk Command

SNMP supports enable/disable toggling and configures the ON/OFF toggling parameters.

SNMP OIDs are partitioned into two sets, legal_fprtetrkcnfg_tbl and legal_fptrkparm_tbl. Each table has a separate access function, corresponding to cnftrk and cnftrkparm CLIs. These OIDs are contained in the fpRoutingTrunks table.

UXM Trunk and Line Loopback

This feature provides the loopback commands on a UXM physical interface that is configured for physical, virtual, or feeder trunk(s) in trunk mode and configured for an UNI or NNI ATM port in line mode.


Note This feature already exists on the BPX.


When a physical loopback is added on a UXM physical interface, all the traffic on the physical interface is looped back.

The physical loopback configuration is stored in BRAM and updated to the standby NPM. The configuration is retained after a rebuild, switchcc, or software upgrade. SWSW does not broadcast the physical loopback information on a UXM physical interface to the other BPX/IGX nodes in the network.

Local Loopback (addlnloclp)

When a UXM port interface is put in local loopback state, the traffic that comes into the cell bus from the local cable is looped back on the cell bus and sent back out the cable. This traffic is passed into the network.

The traffic that comes from the remote end through the network is not sent to this interface. This traffic is dropped and is not mixed with the traffic being looped back.

For local loopback on normal trunks the node which has the trunk-end in local loopback state goes into Comm-Fail state while the remote node goes into loopback state. The traffic from the remote node is looped back by the local node.

The symbol "]" always indicates local loopback for both lines and trunks. The loopback behavior on IMA lines/trunks, IMA virtual trunks, and feeder trunks is similar to that of normal lines/trunks. The user can reduce the number of retained links (to ensure that IMA group status is OK using cnfln or cnftrk commands) and safely put a local loopback on one or more of the individual physical IMA links. The test traffic entering the looped IMA links is looped back while the main user traffic remains unaffected (as long as a sufficient number of retained links remain).

Local Remote loopback (addlnlocrmtlp)

For local remote loopback on normal lines, the node that has its line interface in the local remote loopback state loops back the traffic coming from the cell bus. The traffic is looped back and is not passed to the cable. Traffic from the ports on the local node is not sent on to the network. Traffic is dropped at the local node and is not mixed with the traffic being looped back.

For local remote loopback on normal trunks, the node that has its trunk-end in local remote loopback state loops back the traffic coming from the cell bus. The remote node does not receive this traffic.

The traffic being received from the remote node is dropped and is not passed on to the CPE attached to the local node. This traffic is not mixed with the traffic being looped back.

The symbol "[" always indicates local remote loopback for both lines and trunks. The loopback behavior on IMA lines/trunks, IMA virtual trunks, and feeder trunks is similar to that of normal lines/trunks. Local remote loopback on individual IMA links is not supported.

Delete Local/Local Remote loopback (dellnlp)

The dellnlp command deletes either local or local remote loopback on a line or trunk interface.

The displaying (output) screens of the following existing IGX user commands include the loopback indicators on all the trunks or lines on the UXM physical interface:

dsptrks

dsplns

dspphyslns

Table 9 lists the expected behavior upon using the loopback commands on a single (isolated) node and other nodes in a network. The behavior at both the local and remote nodes is shown. All loopback commands are executed on local nodes.

Limitations

The physical loopback commands on IGX can be executed on the UXM physical interface only, not on an individual virtual interface.

Local remote loopback on individual IMA physical links (either lines/trunks) are not supported. Either all or none of the individual IMA physical links might be put into loopback. This loopback behavior is a firmware limitation. However, for local loopbacks either one or more (including all) of the individual IMA physical links can be put into local loopback.

Traffic loopback behavior on feeder trunks is the same as on normal physical trunks. However, the display is different, as shown in Table 9. Feeder trunks do not have an alarm state called Looped Back. For loopbacks on feeder trunks, both local and remote ends are in major alarm and go into communication-failure state. The states are different because feeder trunks use LMI/ILMI protocol for communication failure tests while normal physical trunks use AutoRoute protocol.

SWSW does not support these loopback commands on the SNMP interface.

Redundancy

If Y-redundancy is configured on a UXM card that supports hot-standby the line loopback configuration on its physical interface, if SET, is also programmed to the standby UXM.

Single-Ended FCES and Policing

Functions

Single-ended FCES and policing provide the following functions:

Allows FCES to be enabled or disabled independently on two endpoints of a connection.

Allows policing to be enabled or disabled independently on two endpoints of a connection.

Supports the configuration from CWM, CLI, and SNMP.

Requirements

These features require the BXM-E and UXM-E cards.

FCES

Independent values for FCES provisioning can be configured for the following reasons:

Connections with type ABRSTD, ABRFST, or ATFST (between two ATM endpoints) are added using addcon if both endpoints support FCES (VSVD needs to be enabled for ABRSTD connection).

The above connections are configured using the cnfcon CLI command.

ATM classes are configured using cnfcls or cnfatmcls commands.

The dspcon is used to display the above connections,

The parameter for FCES takes one of the following values:

D/D (or D). FCES is disabled at both endpoints.

E/E (or E). FCES is enabled at both endpoints.

E/D. FCES is enabled at the local endpoint only.

D/E. FCES is enabled at the remote endpoint only.

The default value for FCES is disable.

The following example shows the CLI prompt.

FCES [Disable/Disable]:

In the following cases FCES is specified for only one end of a connection:

A connection with type ATFST, ATFXFST, or ATFTFST is added between ATM and FR endpoints. Enabling or disabling FCES is applicable only to the ATM endpoint. FCES is ignored at the FR endpoint.

If one endpoint is acting as a feeder trunk, FCES is not applicable and displays a [-].

For a local connection which uses one channel, only one endpoint for this connection exists.

In these cases, the parameter for FCES is in the following format:

D. FCES is disabled at the ATM endpoint.

E. FCES is enabled at the ATM endpoint.

The CLI prompt in these cases is

FCES [Disable/-]: or FCES [-/Disable]: or
FCES [Disable]: (for onelcn dax connection)

MIB

To integrate with CWM, the switch MIB atmEndptOeBCM object for FCES is read-write.

Policing

When a connection is added using addcon, configured using cnfcon, or displayed using dspcon CLI commands, the parameter for policing takes one of the following value combinations:

[1-5]/[1-5] or [1-5]

If the endpoint is a feeder trunk, the policing is shown as

[1-5/- or -/[1-5]

For UBR connections, CLP tagging is used and corresponds to the following input values:

D/D (or D when inputting). CLP tagging is disabled at both endpoints.

E/E (or E when inputting). CLP tagging is enabled at both endpoints.

E/D. CLP Tagging is enabled at the local endpoint only.

D/E. CLP Tagging is enabled at the remote endpoint only.

If the endpoint is a feeder trunk, the CLP tagging is shown as

D/-, E/-, -/D or -/E

The policing type has a range from 1 to 5. Table 10 shows how these policing types are defined. The value to the left of [/] is the local endpoint policing type and the value to the right of [/] is the remote endpoint policing type. The two endpoints are provisioned independently using these two input values.

Note Single-ended policing for VBR connections is not supported.


To configure policing based on endpoints rather than connections, use the addcon and cnfcon CLI commands.

The addcon command allows users to configure policing on the two endpoints differently.

The switch MIB definition for remote endpoint policing allows independent SNMP SET operations on the objects of both endpoints.

Compatibility

These features have the following compatibility capabilities:

Provisioning from existing CWM is supported. If the request has only one endpoint value, copy this value to the other end to keep the new feature compatible with the existing CWM. Do not use the default for the other end.

Because the robust message payload definition has not changed, these features function with the CWM 10.5.

MIB

A new MIB object atmEndptOePolicing supports policing type on the other end.

Redundancy

Network Interoperability

When connections are added from a node with this feature to another node without this feature, the endpoint-based provisioning can be achieved. On the node the display without this feature, the dspcon command displays only one local endpoint value.

The dcct, dvc, and dvcparms commands display the values on both endpoints.

When an ATM class is configured from a node with this feature to have two different values for FCES or policing, the CWM Connection Manager (CM) updates this ATM class definition on all the nodes in the network including nodes without this feature. If a connection is added from an old revision node using this updated class, the connection uses the two different values to provision the connection.

With an upgraded CWM and mixed revisions on a switch, single-ended FCES is supported if the master node is an upgraded node.

If the switch is upgraded before CWM, the following results occur:

The format of robust message sent from switch is not changed. Only the values of the connection object are changed.

The FCES and policing values cannot be configured differently on CWM, and the display on the CWM is incorrect.

If CWM is upgraded before the switch, the following results occur:

CWM blocks configuring two values differently from the GUI if the switch does not support this feature.

If mixed revisions exist in the network, configuring two values differently is supported if the master node is an upgraded node.

Line and Port Alarm Masking

Alarms on a line or port can be masked so that they are not propagated to the network. This masking allows the known alarms in the network to be hidden from the new alarms.

Line and port alarms can be masked through CLI and SNMP interfaces. Activation and deactivation of the interface alarms are logged in the local event log.

This feature is supported in both IGX and BPX platforms.

Functions

Line and port alarm masking mirrors the existing trunk alarm masking and provides the following functions:

The cnflnalm and cnfportalm commands mask out the line and port alarm on the specified line or port. However, if any connections exist on those lines or ports, the connections on the affected line or port still fail and cause the node to be in MAJOR alarm. The line and port alarms are enabled by default.

The Port Alarms and Line Alarms entries in the dspalms screen are modified to reflect any active and disabled port alarms.

The existing integrated line alarm related command, cnflnalm, is renamed to cnfintalm to reflect the integrated alarm configuration. The display command dsplnalmcnf is renamed to dspintalmcnf.

Line Alarms

The line alarms on a node are caused by physical line failures which result in failure of all of the connections on the line interface.

Line alarm masking is supported on the following cards:

IGX

FRM-E

UFM-C

CVM

UVM

UXM

BPX

BXM

ASI

BNI

Port Alarms

The port alarms in a node can be caused by a failure on the end device (CPE) connected to it. These alarms can be caused by an LMI/ILMI failure to restrict communication between the interface card and the CPE. This failure results in a port communication failure that causes a minor alarm on the node.

Port alarm masking is supported on the following cards:

IGX

FRM-D

FRM-E

UFM-C

UFM-U

CVM

UVM

UXM

URM

BPX

BXM

ASI

BNI

In addition to port communication failures, the serial port interface card, UFMU, can have port configuration, port over speed, and cable mismatch failures. These failures result in minor alarms on port interfaces.

An IGX Frame Relay NNI port can go in to major alarm only when an NNI failure occurs, and the debug flag is enabled.

Trunk VC Shaping

This feature provides the capability to enable VC shaping on UXM and BXM trunks, virtual trunks, and feeder trunks per Qbin or QoS.

Compatibility

On the BPX, the BXM card must support the trunk VC shaping feature for VC shaping to be enabled on the trunks.

On the IGX, the UXM card must support traffic shaping for VC shaping to be enabled on the trunks.

This feature is compatible only with firmware releases supporting traffic shaping. Additionally, PCR shaping can be disabled per QBin only if the firmware release supports trunk VC shaping. Otherwise, PCR shaping cannot be disabled.

Limitations

The capability to enable and disable VC shaping is available only on AutoRoute Qbins (1-9). VC shaping cannot be enabled on the high priority Qbin (2) since this Qbin services the CC traffic. VC shaping cannot be enabled on other Qbins (Qbin 0, VSI Qbins 10-15).

The maximum rate at which a VC can transmit is limited by its PCR value if PCR shaping is enabled.

Enabling VC Shaping (or disabling from previous enable state) on a trunk applies only to new connections routed over the trunk. VC shaping can be applied to all the connections belonging to a Qbin by performing a reroute.

Functionality

The feature provides the following functions:

Enables PCR-shaping on BXM trunks, virtual trunks, and feeder trunks on a per-QoS basis.

Enables weighted fair queuing (WFQ) on BXM trunks, virtual trunks, and feeder trunks on a per-QoS basis.

Enables VC shaping (WFQ and PCR shaping) on UXM trunks, virtual trunks, and feeder trunks on a per-QoS basis.

The VC shaping capability can be turned on per QoS on the BXM card by configuring the appropriate Qbin to enable the function. When VC shaping is enabled on a Qbin, egress cells are placed on their respective VC queues before they are scheduled into the Qbin. Cells are scheduled from different VC queues into the Qbin using WFQ to ensure fairness among the different VCs.

On the UXM card, VC shaping can be turned on per trunk. The configuration is then applied to relevant Qbins.

Traffic from a VC queue into the Qbin is limited to the PCR. When VC shaping is enabled, both PCR-shaping and WFQ are in effect. However, PCR-shaping can be removed by programming the PCR of the connection to a large value, leaving only WFQ in effect.

The user can enable VC shaping for a particular Class of Service (CoS) on a trunk or virtual trunk using the cnftrkqparm command, cnftrk command on the IGX, or SNMP.

On the BXM, depending on the CoS, the user is provided with the following options:

D = Disabled (default)

E = Both WFQ and PCR-shaping

W = WFQ only

On the IGX the options are

E = Both WFQ and PCR-shaping

D = Disabled

CLI Modifications and Additions

This section contains the CLI modifications to support the trunk VC shaping feature.

cnftrk

The cnftrk command on the IGX was used to enable VC shaping on a per trunk basis before this feature. Since the feature moves the capability to a per-QoS basis, the VC shaping parameter in the cnftrk command is removed.

cnftrkq

The cnftrkq command enables and disables VC shaping for trunks, virtual trunks, and feeders on a per-Qbin basis.


Note The cnftrkq command is a new command applicable only to BXM cards.


VC shaping can be enabled only on the AutoRoute Qbins using this command. Enabling VC shaping on VSI Qbins is not supported. The default values for all the Qbins is disabled.

VC shaping can be enabled on a QBin only if that card supports VC shaping. If a card does not support VC shaping the following error message displays: VC shaping not supported on the card.

The following example shows the cnftrkq command display.

Special Installation/Upgrade Requirements

This section contains the installation procedures and upgrade requirements.

General Upgrade Procedure


Note Consult a Support Representative before performing any software upgrade.


The earliest release supported for a graceful upgrade is 9.2.23.

Before upgrading the switch software, make sure the cards have the minimum firmware revision per the compatibility matrix.

Procedure for Upgrading BXM cards to the 9.3 Firmware Release

See Appendix A for instructions on upgrading the BXM firmware.

See the Compatibility Matrix for the tested/supported versions of other firmware and software that work with this release.

Procedure for Upgrading UXM cards to the 9.3 Firmware Release


Note For the VSI/MPLS feature, upgrade the UXM firmware to revision ACC or later. The upgrade procedure has changed.


If the switch software version on the node is Release 9.2.x, the following steps are required to upgrade the UXM firmware to revision ACC or later:


Step 1 Execute a graceful upgrade to Release 9.3.30.

Step 2 Upgrade the UXM boot code to boot 8.

Step 3 Upgrade the run-time UXM firmware to revision ABJ or greater.

Step 4 After the card comes up, upgrade the run-time firmware to revision ACC or later.



Warning If these procedures are not followed, the card might enter a state from which it can NOT be recovered. See Appendix B for more information about loading the new firmware.


If a Switch Software Release 9.3.x has already been loaded onto the node, the following steps are required to upgrade the UXM firmware to revision ACC:


Step 1 Execute a graceful upgrade to Release 9.3.30.

Step 2 Upgrade the run-time UXM firmware to revision ACC.


Procedure for Adding New BCC Cards as a Part of Upgrading to Release 9.3

If new BCC cards are to be installed as part of the upgrade to Release 9.3, then the physical card upgrade procedure described below must be completed as a separate activity from the Switch software upgrade.

If upgrading to BCC-4 cards on BPX 8600 nodes, perform the software upgrade, followed by the BCC-4 physical card upgrade.

If BCC-4 is already installed, then upgrade as normal.

If any other type of BCC cards are being physically upgraded, complete the physical upgrade of the cards first, followed by the software upgrade.

Revision Interoperability Supported

The Revision Interoperability feature allows a mixed/ heterogeneous network of 9.2.x and 9.3.x (where "x" equals any GA version of 9.2 and 9.3) nodes to coexist and interoperate. This capability allows users to upgrade their networks from 9.2 to 9.3 in multiple steps.


Note It is not recommended that users operate in this state for extended periods of time.


Normal network maintenance and operations such as provisioning, trunk reroutes, card insertions and removals, and normal network alarming, are supported in the mixed revision network. Normal alarms can be received while upgrading a node to Release 9.3.

In a mixed-revision network, functions that are implemented in 9.3 but not in 9.2 are disabled. For example, features that are supported in both Releases 9.2 and 9.3 function at their 9.2 level. New features developed in 9.3 are automatically enabled when all nodes are upgraded to the 9.3 revision level.

Specifically, connection provisioning, connection rerouting, alarming, and CWM support for these features are supported but function at their 9.2 capabilities, and not at their 9.3 levels until all nodes are upgraded. The dspblkdfuncs command displays blocked (disabled) features.

For 9.3.30 and above, the following features are blocked in a mixed network. These features require that all nodes of the network are running 9.3.30.

URM Remote Router Configuration

TFTP Configuration Save and Restore

Concurrent Routing


Note The URM card cannot be activated in a network with mixed switch software releases.

With the new version of NPM boot code (RxS), upgrading does not require physical card resetting with the following steps:


Step 1 Burn the boot code on the active NPM(1).

Step 2 Execute the switchcc command. Wait until the NPM(1) becomes standby.

NPM(2) is now active.

Step 3 Execute the resetcd command to reset the standby (resetcd 1 h). Wait until the reset card NPM(1) becomes standby.

Step 4 Burn the boot code on the active NPM(2).

Step 5 Execute the switchcc command. Wait until the NPM(2) becomes standby.

NPM(1) is now active.

Step 6 Execute the resetcd command to reset the standby (resetcd 2 h). Wait until the reset card NPM(2) becomes standby.


The latest version of the NPM boot code (RxT) incorporates the fixes for the following defects:

CSCdx37714—After runrev IGX hangs when performing a non-graceful upgrade.

CSCec35229— Auto re-initialization (reset) of boot upon reconfiguration of LAN IP address.

Control Card Compatibility Requirements

Each redundant pair of BCC cards in a given BPX 8600 node must be of identical type and memory configuration. For example, if the active card is a BCC-3-64, then the standby card must be the same. BCC-3 cards with 64 MB of RAM cannot be mixed with BCC-4 cards.

Each redundant pair of NPM cards in a given IGX 8400 node must be of identical type and memory configuration. For example, if the active card is an NPM-32, then the standby card must be the same. NPM cards with 32 MB of RAM cannot be mixed with NPM cards with 64 MB of RAM. Also, NPM-64 cards cannot be mixed with NPM-64B cards.

These requirements apply to all software upgrade procedures. These requirements do not apply to the physical card upgrade procedure, as described below.

Control Card Physical Card Upgrade Procedure

When performing a control card (CC) upgrade, the following procedure must be used on all BCC and/or NPM processors:


Step 1 Remove the current standby CC front and back cards. (Removal of back card only applies to BCC.)

Step 2 Replace with new CC front and back cards that are identical to the current active CC. (Replacement of back card only applies to BCC.)


Note After Step 2, the node contains a mix of an old type CC and the new type CC. This condition is permitted only while the standby updates to the new CC are in progress, which takes less than one hour. The time during which this mixture of CC types exists must be kept to a minimum by immediately replacing the second old type CC with the matching one of the new type.


Step 3 Wait for the standby updates on the newly installed standby CC to complete.

Step 4 Issue a switchcc command to utilize the newly installed CC.

Step 5 Verify that the network is stable.

Step 6 Remove the current standby CC front and backcard. (Remove back card only applies to BCC.)

Step 7 Replace with new CC front and back cards that are identical to the current active CC. (Replace back card only applies to BCC.)

Step 8 Wait for the standby updates on the newly installed standby CC to complete.

The CC physical upgrade is now complete.

Step 9 With the secondary card in the standby state, cause a switchover using the switchcc command. This command tests that the hardware is working correctly.


To take advantage of the dual SIU when upgrading to the BCC-4, the BPX 8600 node must have a new backplane that has dual traces incorporating with the BCC-4.

The dspbpnv command can be issued to verify if the node has the new backplane or the old backplane. The following table details the bit fields for the BCC backplane NOVRAM format. The display of word 2 describes the backplane type.

IGX 8400 Firmware Compatibility


Note For the VSI/MPLS feature, the UXM firmware needs to be upgraded to revision ACC or later. The upgrade procedure has changed.


If the switch software version on the node is Release 9.2.x, the following steps are required to upgrade the UXM firmware to revision ACC or later:


Step 1 Execute a graceful upgrade to Release 9.3.53.

Step 2 Upgrade the UXM boot code to boot 8.

Step 3 Validate that boot code 8 is running.


Caution Upgrading the run-time firmware to ACC without boot code 8 can damage the UXM card.

Step 4 Upgrade the run-time UXM firmware to revision ABJ or greater.

Step 5 After the card comes up, upgrade the run-time firmware to revision ACC or later.



Warning If these procedures are not followed, the card might enter a state from which it can NOT be recovered. See Appendix B for more information about loading the new firmware.


If a Switch Software Release 9.3.x has been loaded onto the node, the following steps are required to upgrade the UXM firmware to revision ACC:


Step 1 Execute a graceful upgrade to Release 9.3.53.

Step 2 Upgrade the run-time UXM firmware to revision ACC or later.

Table 21 Known Anomalies in Release 9.3.53 

Bug ID
Description

CSCdp48861

Headline: Polling for voice conn and line stats results in high TRNS RT usage.

Symptom: The customer might notice slow UI response or a difficulty logging into the node using the normal VT session. The dspprfhist command shows high RT usage in the TRNS process. The thstats shows high RT usage by state machine 55 (0x33).

Conditions: This symptom is due to statistics updates for voice connections. The problem might be seen on nodes with a high number of voice cards and voice connections (IGX with CVMs and/or UVMs).

Workaround: The command off1 17 can be performed. Using this command will stop the collection of voice connection statistics (for all connections, not just voice), as well as the operation of the debug command dspchstats.

If statistics must be collected, limit the number of statistics. Frame Relay statistics are collected at 5 minute intervals (configurable up to 15 minutes). Most voice statistics are reported at 1 minute intervals. However, the following statistics are reported at 3 second intervals:

Seconds V.25 Modem On

CSCdx33468

Headline: dspcons shows connections but dspcon shows connection does not exist

Symptom: dspcons shows all connections but dspcon shows "connection does not exit"

Conditions: The network has the following software configuration:

SWSW is 9.3.51

BXM FW is MFR

Workaround: Use the rbldlogepdb command to rebuild the logical endpoint databases.

CSCdx33733

Headline: swerror 398 on a 9.3.40 IGX node in upgrades network

Symptom: swerror 398 on a 9.3.40IGX node.

Conditions: After a flash non-graceful upgrade.

Workaround: None

CSCdx69339

Headline: 103 logged on IGX when run overnight jobs.

Symptom: A swerr 103 is logged on UXM when running overnight jobs.

Conditions: Run overnight jobs such as switchcc, resetcd on IGX nodes.

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCdx69838

Headline: 3M abort message logged on BPX, then BPX to degraded mode.

Symptom: 3000000 abort message logged on BPX causes a switchcc.

Conditions: This particular 3000000 abort occurs because of a card failure that is causing the card to continually log software error 105's.

Then the messages are queued up. If sufficient memory is not available, the node runs out of memory and then does a 3000000 abort. For the case where this was observed, the node had 15,947 connections—a very heavily populated node.

Workaround: Periodically, the slot that is continually logging the software error 105 that is causing the memory accumulation will clear the queued messages for that slot.

Or, remove the card.

Further Problem Description: This memory fault is occurring because a BXM was continually encountering a buffer full errors for more than 15 continuous hours. 105's are typically caused by faulty firmware, and are not expected to occur regularly. If so, this fault certainly does not occur at the level as encountered by this defect.

CSCea83465

Headline: BXM suspected of failure

Symptom: BPX-8620 system log shows "BXM 4 SUSPECTED OF FAILURE" messages, then after an hour the "BXM 4 SUSPECTED OF FAILURE IS NOW CLEAR" message appears. The switch never goes down and there is no indication of lost connections.

Condition: These log messages occurred in system running 9.3.3.6 and having over 12,000 terminating connections. It was first discovered after upgrading from 9.2.31 to 9.3.36 swsw release.

Workaround: None.

CSCec72834

Headline: Error returned when disabling HCS masking on BXM using snmpset

Symptom: Using snmptool, unable to set the values for HCS Masking on BXM lines and trunks.

Conditions: cnftrk and cnfln allows user to set the values for HCS masking on BXM E3 and T3 cards. But the same functionality is not available from snmp tool snmpset.

Workaround: None

CSCei74018

Headline: Trunk stays in Path Parity Error and sometimes cleared using cnftrk command

Symptom: BXM trunk shows path parity error

Conditions: Trunk with Path parity errors.

Workaround: Change the cable length parameter using cnftrk command to clear the alarm on this trunk

CSCej64267

Headline: BCC mastership - suspected of failure

Symptom: BCC4V refuses to accept mastership when switchcc is issued. The card logs a swerr52 (watchdog timeout)

Conditions: SWSW version 9.2.34

Workaround: None.

CSCin34948

Headline: swerr 586 on BPX node running 9.3.36

Symptom: swerr 586 on BPX node

Conditions: After upgrade from 9.3.24.

Workaround: None

CSCin36516

Headline: swerrors 923, 614,529 and 9000 on IGX feeder running 9.3.11

Symptom: swerrors 923, 614,529 and 9000 on IGX feeder.

Conditions: After loading 9.3.11 on node.

Workaround: None

CSCin98403

Headline: Syncup issue between MGX and BPX over ENNI/XLMI enabled trunk

Symptom: AIS on connections on BPX side ENNI port.

Condition: After a few basic APS-related tests were performed on the ENNI segment.

Workaround: Enter dspchstats on BPX for connections having AIS. This clears the AIS alarms.

Table 23 Anomalies Fixed in Release 9.3.51 

Bug ID
Description

CSCef19285

Control the RT Stats(from SNMP GET) through on/off3 (SNMP Gets causing high CPU use)

Symptom: CPU Usage seen to be very high when the node is processing multiple SNMP GET requests for statistics counters for trunks, lines and connections.

The requests are being sent to node via SNMP scripts from a third party software.

Conditions: Behavior seen only on 9.3.47 release of SWSW onwards.

Workaround: Redesign SNMP scripts to reduce polling on the node.

Further Problem Description: Problem is seen because SNMP GET on statistics causes real time polling on the node. This can increase CPU usage when there are a series of such multiple GET requests issued to a node in quick succession. The impact of these requests is higher when the counters retrieved are actually polled on the node.

Real Time Statistics are polled for under three cases:

1. enabling interval statistics - enable using cnfstatparms/cnfchstats/cnftrkstats/cnfportstats

2. summary statistics -no enabling required. Can be seen using dsptrkstats, dspportstats, dspchstats

3. Real time counter statistics - no enabling required, can be seen using dspcntrstats

Of these three cases, this problem can be observed only for options 1 and 3 which will update the counters retrieved by SNMP GET at real time.

Option 1 will show problems when counters are enabled using any of the above commands and multiple OID SNMP GETs are issued for these counters.

Option 3 does not require any statistics enabling to be explicitly done on the node. The RTC counters are a subset of the available interval statistics. For every SNMP GET involving these RTC counters, the card is polled at real time and the CPU utilisation can be seen going up for multiple OID SNMP GETs involving these counters also.

Note The new ON3 parameter that can be used to disable real time polling for statistics (parameter 8) will work transparently in the case of Option 1. But if Option 3 was being used, interval statistics for the corresponding counters have to be enabled on the node, to continue the statistics collection.

RTC statistics was not controlled before. But by introducing the new ON3 parameter this feature is now controlled.

Special Installation/Upgrade Requirements

This section contains additional installation and upgrade requirements.

BXM-622DX Upgrade Issue

The issue in this section applies only to the BXM-622DX (enhanced single port OC12) card.

Firmware revisions MFE through MFL have incorrect queue sizes. When you upgrade from lower revisions, mismatches can occur. And, the card might not recover.

This problem has been corrected in MFM. Therefore, use MFM or higher revisions when you upgrade.

A similar problem exists in Model E firmware for revisions MEJ and MEK. You must upgrade to Model F firmware, using MFM or higher.

APS Issues

Upgrading from MEK and lower firmware to MFZ when feeder trunks are utilized with APS while the BPX node does not have APS requires the following procedure:


Step 1 Change the PXM1-based MGX feeder to use APS1+1 unidirectional AND disable K1K2 processing (might need to delete and then add back APS).

On the BPX temporarily configure to use unidirectional mode.

Step 2 After PXM1-based MGX dspapsln shows both lines OK, delete the APS line on the BPX.

Step 3 Proceed to upgrade the BXM cards as if Y-red.

Step 4 After both cards are MFZ, add back the APS on the BPX.

Step 5 Reconfigure both PXM1-based MGX and BPX to use the appropriate APS configurations.


BXM cards with MCB/MDA firmware or later can be smoothly migrated to the MFA or above version of firmware by using Y-cable redundancy.

To upgrade a BXM card pair in Y-red configuration, complete the following steps:


Step 1 Upgrade the standby card with the MFA or above firmware version.

Wait for all of the configuration to be downloaded to the card.

Step 2 Do a switchyred to switch to the card with firmware MFA or above version.

Step 3 Burn the other card with the desired version MFA or above firmware.

Follow the standard firmware upgrade procedure for downloading and burning the firmware to the cards.

Step 4 If BCC SWSW version is 9.1.18 and dspnovram shows 0 or 4 for Number of Channel Stats, go directly to MFC or above versions from MCC.


For APS (1+1) MEx or MFA image versions are not to be treated as compatible with MFZ (minus MFA) image versions. During an upgrade procedure from MEx or MFA image to MFZ (minus MFA) image, both cards must be upgraded to the MFZ (minus MFA) image with minimal interval between them. Any intra-MFZ (minus MFA) or intra-MEx upgrades are fine.

The incompatibility is due to APS intercard messages from one end not being recognized by the other end. See bug CSCdu67053 for the symptoms caused by this incompatibility.

Channel Statistics Issues

While upgrading from firmware, on OC3, 1 port OC12 BXM cards, if stats level on BXM is greater than 1, use one of the following upgrade procedures listed below.

Upgrade From Firmware Revision MEA or Higher


Step 1 Upgrade SWSW to 9.2.30 or higher.

Step 2 Upgrade the firmware to MFZ.


Upgrade From Firmware Revisions Lower Than MEA.

This procedure avoids card mismatch.


Step 1 Upgrade firmware to MEC.

Step 2 Upgrade the SWSW to 9.2.30 or higher revision.

Step 3 Upgrade the firmware to MFZ.

A firmware burn must not be interrupted. A card reset in the middle of burn firmware results in the BXM being maintained in the core state (identified by blinking yellow LED) or failed state (identified by a solid red LED). In this case the dspcds screen reports the card as FAILED. This state can be recovered by reburning the firmware into the card.


Features Obsoleted

The following features have been obsoleted:

1. VSI 1.0 is obsoleted by VSI 2.2 in the MDA release and higher.

2. From versions MFJ to MFN channel statistics level 0 is no longer supported for BXM-155-4, BXM-155-8, BXM-622, BXM-622-2, BXM-T3-8, BXM-T3-12, BXM-E3-8, BXM-E3-12 models. In MFN and higher conditional support for statistics level 0 is revoked. See the Notes, Cautions, and Clarifications section point 13 for more details.

3. In all other models channel statistics level 0 is supported by all firmware versions (BXM-155-8DX, BXM-155-8D, BXM-155-4DX, BXM-155-4D, BXM-622-2DX, BXM-622-2D, BXM-622-DX, BXM-T3-12EX, BXM-T3-12E, BXM-T3-8E, BXM-E3-12EX, BXM-E3-12E, BXM-E3-8E).

Notes, Cautions, and Clarifications

1. BXM Model F firmware is intended for use with 9.3 switch software. BXM Model F firmware can be used to upgrade BXM cards during the upgrade process from SWSW Release 9.2 to 9.3. BXM Model F firmware has not been tested for compatibility with SWSW Releases 8.4, 8.5, and 9.1. BXM Model F firmware is compatible with IOS version 12.05t2 or greater for MPLS.

2. MFE is a not on Cisco.com because it is an SES specific release.

3. Protection Switching based on BER on BXM might not comply to standards. The GR-253 and ITU-T G.783 requires that switching be completed within 60 msec from the time the error starts. BXM is unable to detect BER threshold crossing until the next poll, which occurs every 250 msec. Thus, switching time can be up to 250 msec under certain circumstances.

4. In APS 1+1 default configuration, both back card LEDs show green when primary card is active and selection is from PROT line. When primary card is active and it is selecting from PROT, PROT backcard should be green, since it is carrying traffic. WORK backcard should also be green since that is the physical path for the primary (and active) card to pass traffic. Backcard LED green means the backcard is directly or indirectly carrying traffic, and pulling the backcard causes traffic disruption (CSCdm53430).

5. In APS 1+1 default configuration and a manual W->P is on and a switchyred is issued, a manual W->P event is logged. By default, on switchyred the new active card comes up in "clear" state. But in this case since there is a manual W->P on, the APS line switches to PROT and the switching is logged (CSCdm53404).

6. In APS 1+1 default configuration if the selected line is PROT and last user request is clear and a switchyred is issued, line switches to WORK. If the last user request is "clear", full automatic APS switching is in effect with the working line being active by default. When there is no last user switch request to switch to any particular line, the working line becomes active. (CSCdm53420)

7. When APS Annex B is added to local end which has the secondary card active, the APS trunk goes into Comm Failure for few seconds and then clears. If the secondary card is active, do a switchyred to make the primary card active. Then, add APS Annex B (CSCdm46359).

8. MFK and higher versions support LCN CAC for Class of Services. The controller reserves some LCNs for control VC as default. These reserved LCNs cannot be used by any Class of Service in MFZ. If all the LCNs for the partition have been used in a version earlier than MFK, after the MFZ version is updated in the switch, some connections might not be added. These connections try to use LCNs reserved for control VC which is not allowed.

Configure more LCNs for the partition to make sure enough LCNs exist for all the connections.

9. The OC-3 MultiMode Fiber backcards do not support Y-cable redundancy.

10. APS 1:1 is not supported for VSI in versions before MFE (CSCdp42996). APS 1:1 must not be configured on ports intended to be used by PNNI or MPLS as after switchover traffic flow is stalled on the protection line for releases before MFE. However, in MFE and higher, this problem is fixed.

11. Total bandwidth allocated to all VSI partitions on a BXM must not be more that OC12 rate, 1412832 cps. BCC SWSW allows users to configure more than the OC12 rate, which all of the PNNI connection commit requests are NACKed by BXM.

12. In firmware versions prior to MFF signaling bandwidth for an SES controller was not guaranteed. In MFF and above the signaling qbin feature has been added (with SWSW 9.3.10 and higher and SES image 1.0.10 and higher) to guarantee signaling bandwidth.

13. Statistics level 0 for legacy BXM cards was obsoleted in Model F releases until MFN. However, in version MFP and higher conditional support statistics level 0 for legacy cards is revoked. Statistics level 0 is not supported if VSI configurations exist on the card.

If a card was configured with statistics level 0 with VSI enabled in a previous release of firmware (Model C or E), upgrading to MFP or above revisions causes a mismatch on legacy cards.

To avoid impacting VSI operations, reconfigure the card to statistics level 1 or above before upgrading.


Note BXME (enhanced cards) support all statistics levels unconditionally with all valid configurations, models, and releases.


14. Starting with MFP through this release of MFZ, excessive BIP-8 error rates (10-3) which escalate into unavailable seconds (UAS) are now reported to Switch Software as red alarms. This feature is not configurable, and might cause failed connections and rerouted trunks in configurations where APS is not enabled, alternate trunk routes do not exist or on UNI ports. This feature is not active when APS is configured and enabled.

Because this feature is not configurable at this point in time customers who do not want this behavior should not upgrade to MFP through MFZ but rather wait for a subsequent SWSW/BXM fw release where this feature can be turned on and off (default is off) via CLI command.

CSCee45765

Symptom: XLMI/LMI protocol remains in down state.

Conditions: When a switchover is done on an AXSM or remote end, XLMI/LMI on the BXM side might go down due to missing ACKs from the remote end. These ACKs are the responses to the UPDATE STATUS message BXM has been sending. XLMI/LMI might stay in down state.

Workaround: Unknown.

XLMI/LMI might recover if on the AXSM side you execute dnlmi /uplmi or any event to trigger UPDATE STATUS message sent to the BXM.

Note dnlmi and uplmi do not affect traffic.

CSCea08808

Symptom: In a BPX/SES PNNI scenario, SVC/SPVC connections do not route over PNNI virtual interface (VNNI, virtual trunk) when using different VPIs in both ends of the Virtual Path Connection.

Connections fail with cause code #35: Last Fail Cause: requested VPCI/VCI not available.

Conditions: The scenario is similar to the following:

BXM_VNNI-----VPI1-----VPC_Cloud-----VPI2----BXM_VNNI

where VPI1 is different than VPI2

Workaround: Disable ILMI auto configuration using the command from the SES Controller.

With auto-configuration disabled, the ILMI slave does not start ATM layer parameter-negotiations while ports come up. Instead, the ILMI slave uses the local configuration parameters. The default state for auto-configuration is enabled.

Further Problem Description: If this problem is present, the command, dsppnport, shows a minSvccVpi greater than maxSvccVpi, and a minSvccVci greater than maxSvccVci in the end with higher VPI value.

This can be seen in the following example:

nodename.7.PXM.a > dsppnport 1:1.4:14
Port: 1:1.4:14 Logical ID: 16848910
IF status: up Admin Status: up

CSCea85590

Symptom: In an XPVC network, BXM at the edge of the AR network connects to an AXSM card in the SPVC network. The NodeStatus message that the BXM sends to AXSM, contains a field of Fdr_slot. This field is where the physical slot number is sent, while the logical slot number is needed for the consistency by the CWM.

Conditions: This symptom occurs when running the XLMI/LMI protocol.

Workaround: None.

CSCeb21297

Symptom: Pseudo AIS on path BIP-8 errors on BXM cards with SONET interfaces is not a configurable feature.

Conditions: This symptoms occurs always.

Workaround: None.

This DDTS makes configurable the customer-specific behavior where AIS-P is triggered from UAS. In previous releases starting with MFP, this was always ON. Now the default is OFF, and it must be turned ON via command, cnfndparm 61, using SWSW 9.4.00 or higher.

Description

CSCdw76023

Symptom: For APS 1:1 intracard configuration, dspapsln command keeps showing false and misleading alarm "APS missing card."

Conditions: APS 1:1 intracard setup using R (redundant) designated backcard.

Workaround: Do not use an R designated backcard when configuring APS 1:1 intracard setup.

Use the normal backcard. It is just a false alarm. All APS functionality should still be working correctly.

CSCdw95063

Symptom: "dspapsln" doesn't show "card missing" on standby even though the standby card has been removed. "dspapsln" shows OK even though standby BXM card is removed to cause a switchover to the newly active card.

Conditions: Remove the active BXM to cause the switchover to the newly active card in an APS 1+1 configuration setup.

Workaround: Insert back the standby BXM card.

CSCdx28781

Symptom: When bit errors happen on a line, all the connections provisioned on the line fail.

Conditions: MFM onwards (There is a code change went into firmware image MFM, which puts the line into Path AIS as long as UAS-P condition persists. This change is good for trunks as alternate routes could be chosen. But on lines, especially when they are error prone, there is no choice but to keep using the line, application might slow down but at least connection does not get failed).

Workaround: Use images before MFM or replace the buggy physical cable.

CSCdx40378

Symptom: When sending F5 OAM end to end flows through a DACS SPVC, only the "egress" counters of dspconstats increment. This true for F5 end to end AIS, or F5 end to end loopback.

Conditions: This affects OAM cell counting on all SPVC connections. It occurs with firmware MFW or lower revision.

Workaround: None.

CSCdx50089

Symptom: ILMI did not update its neighbor IP address and IfName to be "N/A", when its physical link on which it was running went down. dspnebdisc would show the previous neighbor IP address and IfName in this situation.

Conditions: The physical link on which ILMI was running went down.

Workaround: Reset the card will clear the old information.

CSCdx72292

Symptom: Commit connection request is failed due to NAK from BXM, while still a lot of available bandwidth at partition level.

Conditions: Single/multiple partitions on a interface enabled.

1. The bandwidth common pool of this interface is zero.

2. At least in one partition, sum of (cos_min_bw) > part_min_bw, due to the round up when applying the policy parameters -minbw to get cos_min_bw.

Workaround: Configuring the multiple partitions gives at least 20 cells in common pool. The work around for CSCdv03058 applies to this problem.

See CSCdv03058 for detail workaround explanation.

CSCdy16927

Symptom: BXM LMI clears Abit alarms on SPVC feeder after switchcc or switchyred.

Conditions: SPVC feeder1 === BPX1/SES1=== BPX2/SES2 === SPVC feeder **

1. The connection segment in the BPX/SES network is down.

2. The corresponding segment in the SPVC feeder is in Abit alarm.

3. After a switchcc or a BXM switchyred on BPX1, the BXM LMI session at "**" tells SPVC feeder1 to clear the Abit alarm on the segment corresponding to the downed VSI connection in the BPX/SES network.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy57435

Symptom: Fatal PRFD Pending error has been seen at BXM card. (SIMBA errors excess its threshold).

Conditions: Most likely, it happens during FW/SW upgrade.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy75277

Symptom: A pnport stuck is in down state after being added and configured.

Conditions: Add and configure pnport on a freshly added trunk/port. Delete all the configuration and down all interfaces, then newly add and configure the pnport from scratch.

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCdy80205

Symptom: When physical interface in alarm (LOS), dsppnport shows the operating status as up in SES.

Conditions: When SES is running 3.0(10.0) or later, even if the physical interface is in alarm (LOS), if ILMI is enabled, with out configuring signaling type (NNI or UNI) in SES, the operating status of interface is shown as UP. This issue occurs with BXM Image MFW or prior.

Workaround: Configure signaling type in SES.

CSCdy89521

Symptom: The AAL5 Feeder attached to the BPX routing hub becomes unreachable after a delshelf command was issued on the BPX, even though there are no existing connections on either the feeder or the BPX.

Conditions: BXM runs the LMI protocol.

Workaround: None

CSCdz49797

Symptom: Doing a switchyred on BXM causes AXSM connection to go into Abit/AIS alarm.

Conditions: A switchyred on BXM card running XPVC in a mixed MGX 8220 BPX MGX(PXM1) MGX(PXM45) network can go into alarm, and then the alarm will not clear. Typically a transition outside of the PNNI network (a switchyred on the BPX in this case) can cause the ingress port to generate an AIS alarm, which it sends into the PNNI network and is received by CPE at the other end. Because the AIS is incorrect, there's never any indication to the ingress port that it should clear the alarm.

Workaround: Executing dncon/upcon on the AXSM end which is generating switch side Tx AIS (if that is the master connection) If the problem is on the slave end need to delete and re-add the connection

CSCin33357

Symptom: After burn MFW image, the BXM enhanced card went to resetting.

Conditions: BXME card with statistics level 0 and VSI connections.

Workaround: Do not use statistics level 0 for BXME card.

Symptom: 1:1 APS allows manual/forced switchapsln P->WLine.

Conditions:

1. 1:1 APS with Bi-Dir configured; remote is AXSM/B.

2. Manual switchaps W->PLine from AXSM/B.

3. Forced switchaps P->WLine from BXM.

Workaround: None.

CSCdx45385

Symptom: BXM did not update SES with the latest available cos level LCN when there is cnfrsrc LCN resources (LCN) change on this partition (part_min_lcn, part_max_lcn).

Conditions:

1. A PNNI partition has been configured with some connections up. dsppnportrsrc reports the correct available lcn for each cos level.

2. Do cnfrsrc on this partition, to change the min_lcn and max_lcn at partition level. The available lcn at cos level in SES dose not get updated.

Workaround: Add a con or down a con to trigger the update.

CSCdx55794

Symptom: BXM incorrectly sends back LMI version 4 to IGX AAL5 feeder, while it does not support LMI version 4.

Conditions:

1. IGX AAL5 feeder is added to a BXM feeder trunk in the BPX.

2. IGX feeder LMI is running LMI version 4, and talk to BXM LMI.

Workaround: None.

CSCdx56537

Symptom: Setting cnftrkparm 9 2500/15000 causes trunk failure.

Conditions: BXM running MFU firmware. Found in lab environment but likely to also be found in a live network if these trunk parameter values are used and the trunk passes over another medium such as a TDAX or SDH backbone.

Workaround: Set cnftrkparm 9 2500/10000 which is the default for STM1. Do not use the values 2500/15000 for cnftrkparm 9. Tests have yet to show if this would effect other values but default settings have been confirmed problem free.

CSCdx59080

Symptom: Customer is performing tests of MFU firmware prior to deployment in live network and has found that when a BXM trunk is configured for loop clock yes at both ends it remains in a "Looped Back" state when the BXM is reset by command "resetcd ? h".

Conditions: BXME trunk needs to be configured for loop clock yes and the BXM card be reset. Tests showed that causing a LOS or resetting the card again would not recover the trunk.

Workaround: Issue cnftrk and change none of the parameters by stepping through them.

CSCdy01870

Symptom: SIMBA reset card errors logged due to PRFD Pending Errors

Conditions: BXM image MEE and SWSW image 9.3.00

Workaround: None.

CSCdy01951

Symptom: Unnecessary alarms are triggered when BXM sends slot errors to SWSW.

Conditions: The FW adds all slot errors before sending them to BCC. There are situations when the number of traffic related slot errors will trigger unnecessary alarms on SWSW. These alarms will be suppressed.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy05515

Symptom: Current BXM firmware only support a few statistics counters. In order to enhance customer operation and maintenance capability, a few new statistic counters have been added. The detail description about the new created statistics and associated CLI commands and MIBs can be found in the latest VSI document. See DDTS case CSCdy05597 (SES and MIBs).

Conditions: All previous FW do not support the new connection statistics.

Workaround: Not applicable.

CSCdy13987

Symptom: Newly added routed SPVC carries counter values of previously deleted SPVC.

Conditions: Delete routed SPVC. Then re-add the SPVC with same VPI/VCI values.

Workaround: Problem is fixed in MFW (MF20).

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCds20584

Symptom: BW change by cnftrk command does not change ER stamping BW.

Conditions: When the AR ABR STD connection is programmed and the bw of trunk is changed by the cnftrk command. The changed BW does not take effect.

Workaround: Manually reset the card.

CSCdu09831

Symptom: APS fails when working backcard (active or standby) is removed from chassis when working front card is active.

Conditions: The working front card has to be the active card when working backcard is removed. This occurs when APS 1+1 ITUT non-revertive bi-directional configuration SWSW 9.2.34BXM fw MFJ.

Workaround: In operational situations always have the protecting front card and protecting backcard as active. Any failures will then switch ok and either backcard can be swapped while protecting front card is active.

CSCdv86732

Symptom: Incorrect values for Path Unavailable Seconds statistics are displayed under dspplyslnstathist. The displayed counts maybe higher than expected. For example, over a 900 second period, 910 Path UAS counts may be displayed.

While Path UAS stats are referred to specifically, other duration statistic counts could be affected as well.

Conditions: The problem occurs under the following conditions:

BXM line or trunk

The line or trunk is in major alarm (e.g. LOS, AIS, YEL)

Statistics are collected on the line or trunk to report the duration of the alarm condition (e.g. UAS).

The automatic trunk/line loopback test is disabled using the cnffunc command.

Workaround: None.

CSCdw06552

Symptom: Conns should stop passing traffic when dnpnport on UNI port on SES.

Conditions: There were some SPVC connections including double-ended and single-ended SPVC connections between SES and MGX 8850 (PXM45) node.

Both UNI ports were connected to Adtech tester. Executed dnpnport on UNI port on SES, all the connections went to AIS state on MGX 8850 (PXM45) node. Started passing traffic on all those connections, the AIS state was cleared on all the connections, though AIS was still sent out from SES side, but the other end could not distinguish OAM cells from the data traffic.

When pnport is down, the connection on that interface should be programmed to set Inhibit Rx Data or send AIS out the UNI port, and stop passing traffic into the network, so that the other end can interpret OAM cells.

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCdw21798

Symptoms: Forced switchapsln when secondary section has failed is accepted.

Conditions: APS AnnexB between MGX 8850 (PXM45) and BPX (OC12), remove Tx and Rx cables on working section 1.

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCdw51601

Symptom: dspportstats on BXM shows Rx as Zero even the port has traffic passes in both directions.

Conditions: Not every single port has this problem. However we found multiple cards in the customer network have this issue. All the problem ports are T3 ports.

Workaround: None

CSCdw81944

Symptom: APS switch options 4,5,6 should not be allowed on AnnexB protocol.

Conditions: Upon switchapsln options 4, 5, 6.

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCdw83849

Symptom: APS 1+1 configured between AXSM/B and BXM running ITU-AnnexB protocol:

APS Lockout request (on BXM) doesn't keep selector position.

Conditions: APS Setup: MGX8850 (AXSM/B) ----> BPX (BXM)

APS 1+1, AnnexB Trigger:

1. On AXSM/B, apply APS force switch from Working section 1 (WS1) to WS2.

2. On BXM, apply lockout request, selector switches to WS1 which is incorrect. Lockout should indeed freeze selector position to WS2 in this scenario.

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCdw94327

Symptom: With 1:1 configuration; either WL or PL in LOS, BPX always sends RDI-P to AXSM/B.

Conditions:

1. Configured Intra 1:1 APS.

Forced switchaps W->PLine for both APS lines. Active on Plines.

2. Removed the WL-Rx from remote ends.

Active stayed on PLines, both lines in Minor alarms. Remote node receives RDI-P on the failed line.

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCdx05529

Symptom: Removing cable on protection line followed by switchyred card on remote node cause remote Yel major alarm on the trunk.

Conditions: It only happened with ITUT protocol with APS 1+1 mode

Workaround: Unknown.

Symptom: APS standby CD to active but no response to BCC after reset active BXM.

Conditions: Enable VSI partition for MPLS and with APS configuration on BXM on BPX.

Workaround: Manually reset BXM.

CSCdx69563

Symptom: Continuous 105 and CD errors logged on BXM cause spvc down on SES.

Conditions: Configure 100K SPVC on BPX with SES.

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCdx73291

Symptom: Fatal card error happened on BXM card in slot 9 after doing a full hitless rebuild on node. The card error should be a Non Fatal card error.

Conditions: A full hitless node rebuild was done on a node with many connections. This problem is related to a temporary HDLC queue overflow and should not be a fatal error.

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCin03340

Symptom: BXM sends ILMI trap with incorrect number of PVCs

Conditions: The SWSW 9.3.40 feature—configurable number of changes per ILMI trap—needs support from the FW when ILMI is run by the card.

Symptom: BXM card did not automatically switch to standby card

Conditions: This symptom occurs when Non Fatal Error "0xc000002" occurred on BXM trunk card, and the traffic worsened.

Workaround: None.

CSCdv31049

Symptom: BXM sets K1 Tx to Force Switch instead of Reverse Request even though remote had already been sending a Force Switch. BXM, however, maintains the correct line.

Conditions: Remote end already had a Force Switch to Working line in effect, and local BXM receives a user command to do a Force Switch to the Protection line.

Workaround: Clear the BXM Force switch command.

CSCdv89925

Symptom: ACR is only 10 when VC shaping is enabled for UBR con

Conditions: Trunk VC Shaping feature on BXM card is configured between two nodes. UBR connections are routed between the nodes.

Workaround: None.

CSCdv77996

Symptom: dspapsln reports wrong info w.r.t. aps when one of the yred cards is out.

Conditions: This bug fix is available in firmware release MFR, but swsw bug fix should be there in order to have the complete solution.

SWSW bug: CSCdw35862 9.3.30 MJ01

Further Problem Description: When one card of aps pair is removed, then reset dspapsln shows lines as ok. Should show card failed or missing.

CSCdw06552

Symptom: Conns should stop passing traffic when dnpnport on UNI port on SES.

Conditions: There were some SPVC connections including double-ended and single-ended SPVC connections between SES and MGX 8850 (PXM45) node. Both UNI ports were connected to Adtech tester. Executed dnpnport on UNI port on SES, all the connections went to AIS state on MGX Release 2 node. Started passing traffic on all those connections, the AIS state was cleared on all the connections, though AIS was still sent out from SES side, but the other end could not distinguish OAM cells from the data traffic.

When pnport is down, the connection on that interface should be programmed to set Inhibit Rx Data or send AIS out the UNI port, and stop passing traffic into the network, so that the other end can interpret OAM cells.

Workaround: None.

Note This is a partial fix and relies on a SES DDTS CSCdv48496 for resolution.

CSCdw21798

Symptoms: Forced switch when secondary section has failed is accepted.

Conditions: APS AnnexB between MGX 8850 (PXM45) and BPX (OC12), remove Tx and Rx cables on working section 1.

Work around: None.

CSCdw25074

Symptom: When inserting 1E-03 errors into the whole frame of STM-4 trunk 3.1 (errors inserted in the direction A to B) BPX A becomes unreachable i.e. cannot telnet to BPX A. VT to A from another BPX times out and there's an HPOV event stating that the link is down to A.

The other nodes in the network remain reachable. BPX node log shows that the BCC has a suspected failure (Which indicates corruption of the BCC self test)a few minutes after inserting the errors into the trunk at B.

Removing the errors from the trunk results in BPX becoming reachable. Same problem seen with the other BCC active. This is consistently reproducible. If reroutes on another trunk (e.g. trk 1.1) are taking place when the errors are being inserted into trk 3.1, the connections (which are pref 'd' onto trk 1.1) remain derouted until the errors are removed from trk 3.1.

Conditions: Errors inserted at 10 -3 in one direction from A to B cause A to go unreachable. Found in lab environment running 9.2.38 with MFN firmware on 155 and 622 optical card types.

Workaround: DNTRK to force a reroute.

CSCdw53395

Symptoms: Traffic disrupted in the via node. No ais is propagated to other master end if slave end port is down.

Conditions: This symptom mostly occurs when MGX 8850 (PXM45) is connected to SES.

Workaround: None.

CSCdw54957

Symptom: ENNI change EFCI to 0 when receive EFCI =1 from MGX (PXM45).

Conditions: This symptom occurs in 9.3.3i MFR.

Workaround: None.

Further Problem Description: When there is a congestion on MGX egress port, MGX 8850 (PXM45) sets EFCI=1 for all SPVCs/xpvcs on that port to the downstream.

CSCdw62999

Symptom: BPX sends a wrong value for K1.

Conditions: This symptom occurs in APS interop testing between BPX and AXSM/B OC-3.

Workaround: None.

Symptom: BXM sends RDI trap to SES which does a dnpnport

Conditions: Config is BXM UNI with aps 1+1, SW 9.3.35, FW MFR, SES SW 1.1.71.

Workaround: None.

CSCdw75999

Symptom: Dspconstats on an SES CLI for an SPVC connection shows that clp0 discards and clp1 discard counts are interchanged.

Conditions: This symptom occurs in SES 1.0(14), BXM FW MFR.

Discards, due to the policing action, are reported incorrectly in dspconstats cmd. Discards due to congestion are reported correctly.

Workaround: None.

Update BXM FW to MFU or later.

CSCdw88723

Symptom: Say BXM1 is a BME card. BXM2 is normal BXM card running fw image MFC-MFT. Multicast root connection runs from BXM2 to BXM1 and fans out to other connections at BXM1 port 2. We will see high number of ingress cell discards on the root connection at BXM2.

Conditions: This symptom occurs with BXM2 running f/w image between MFC to MFT.

Workaround: None.

Use firmware image MFU or later on BXM2.

Table 44 Anomalies Fixed in MFR 

Bug ID
Description

CSCdv90721

Symptom: The prevalent symptom is Tx BIP 16 and B-Frame Parity slot errors on BXM-622 or BXM-155 cards. Occasional SIU Phase and Rx BIP 16 errors may also occur on BXM-622 and BXM-155 cards depending on the severity of the problem.

Conditions: This symptom can occur with any version of BXM firmware on BXM-622 or BXM-155 cards. The aggregate cell transfer rate of the BXM card is 1,412,832 cells/second so the problem can occur on BXM-622 or BXM-155 cards even if the load on each line is well below line rate. The problem occurs during oversubscription when multiple high speed cards have traffic destined for a particular card through the switching fabric.

Workaround: To solve the BCC-4 software error 742 problem, upgrade switch software to 9.1.22, 9.2.31, 9.3.00 or later.

Symptom: The BXM card changed the state from active to empty for a particular slot and failed to communicate with the BCC.

Conditions: Switch Software was upgraded for the particular BXM and statistics were enabled before the current state. Now the particular slot is in empty state although both front and back cards are present for the slot.

This loop happened because of spvc statistics task. It happens when new spvc_config_stats command comes in the vsi message with more than currently configured stat ids. Due to this the data base will be updated. During this update some flag was not set properly and it leads to a loop.

Workaround: A workaround is not known other than the physical removal of the card. Or, use MFR or later images.

CSCdm50659

Symptom: Trunk alarms are not generated when random bit errors are injected onto a trunk using an Adtech Sx14 test set at a rate of 10E-3. There are trunk statistics generated but no trunk alarm because the statistics that cause alarms on do not meet the threshold for MAJOR or MINOR alarms.

Conditions: This was generated in a lab environment with test equipment that was set to inject bit errors randomly through the entire bandwidth. Some HCS errors were generated as well as Path unavailable and Path Farend unavailable.

Workaround: Lowering the alarm threshold for MAJOR and MINORHCS errors can help to generate a trunk alarm. Use the cnflnalm command and modify the Hcserr alarm thresholds to .01 for MAJOR and .0001 for MINOR.

These thresholds are as low as they can be set currently.

CSCdt82384

Symptom: APS trunk built on bxm-155-4d. sf and sd thresholds set to 5 and UNI-direction non-revertive switching with cnfapsln.

Random logic errors inserted into the working pair of the trunk to observe protection switch at sf threshold.

Good switch at 1 in 103 and 105 but when 1 in 104 inserted trunk goes unstable repeatedly switching from working to protection and vice versa.

Trunk continues to toggle until errors removed.

Conditions: This symptom occurs with BXM-155 enhanced cards using APS card cage and injecting 104 error rate into one of the working lines.

Workaround: None.

Description

CSCds47753

Symptoms: Card error will happen in standby "VrmDekConnEndPoint Try to delete".

Conditions: When standby syncs up with active, it tries to delete a not existing connection.

Workaround: The card error indicates that there is a invalid try of deleting a non-existing connection. It should not create any problem in existing or new connection.

CSCds75845

Symptom: There is no ER stamping cell generated from BPX in SES environment. Although, CI is set to be off and ER is on by using cnfabrparam, CI cells are still observed where there is congestion.

Conditions: This symptom occurs when the connection is routed by PNNI (created by using SES controller).

Workaround: None.

CSCdt55356

Symptom: After configured status of all nni links to dwon at SES node svcpop2, then configured all links up. while the 100k SPVC connections are derouting and rerouting. at bxm, slot 11, 12, 13 and 14 are reset by itself.

Condition: MGX nodes p2spvc4 and p2spvc3(via node) both have standalone PXM45-B card.

Initially 100K spvc connections have been established between p2spvc4 and SES node svcpop2 end points.

Workaround: It was found that a deadlock in the firmware code (SC_task and device's driver). In order to solve the problem, mutual-exclusion semaphore is selected for QE, SABRE, SIMBA and RCMP instead of binary semaphore.

CSCdu21842

Symptom: ILMI does not report correct status of the ATM PVCs when Protocol by card is enabled.

Conditions: When a BPX is connected to a router through a BXM card and ILMI Protocol is run by the card.

Workaround: None.

CSCdu04976

Symptom: Around 200 SPVCs stuck in Rx ais after resetting BCC.

Conditions: Resetting the BCC during resync with a SES controller causes this problem as the AIS bit-map is cleared.

PXM: 1.1(50.100)A1

BXM: MF15

SWSW: 9.3.3E

Workaround: Unknown.

CSCdu29758

Symptom: After power cycle BXM card send the OAM F4 Segment loopback from ADTECH test equipment to BXM received a different VCI value.

Conditions: The first couple of loopback cells received have incorrect VCI values.

BXM=MFJ, BPX 9.2.31

BXMa-BPX==BPX-BXMb<-> ADTECH (OAM F4Loopback)

Workaround: None.

CSCdu63175

Symptom: LOF and Bert_SD alarm uncleared on BXM.

Conditions: This symptom occurs with 1+1 aps with bi-dir on BPX and MGX.

Workaround: Perform a switchcdred/switchyred on BXM.

Conditions: Run XLMI and disable the polling.

Workaround: Enable the polling, then disable it.

CSCdv18519

Symptom: In reading MF* BXM MFM fw release notes, it was discovered the Stats collection level 0 is no longer supported in MFM and beyond. Ie, Stats level 0 supports 32k cons stats level 1 16k cons.

Conditions: This symptom occurs in 9.3.3V. MF21.

Workaround: See MFM release notes Stat level 0 no longer supported on Legacy BXM cards.

CSCdv21924

Symptom: By running XLMI, when the NodeStatus message didn't get ack back, it would retry every T396 (polling timer), instead of using the correct T393 timer.

Conditions: This symptom occurs when XLMI is configured and link/line is down. XLMI NodeStatus retry mechanism kicks in. But a wrong timer T396 was used for retrying interval.

Workaround: It does not cause any service interrupting or deteriorating and it won't show up under normal operating condition. If a specific NodeStatus retry interval is really needed, one can configure T396 to that value temporarily before the fix is in.

CSCdv21999

Symptom: BXM sends a port failure VSI msg to the controller after switchyred.

Conditions: This symptom occurs under yred configuration and running LMI on PNNI port on this card. Switchyred so the standby card become active and the port on standby card from failure state to OK.

Workaround: None.

CSCdv32466

Symptom: A enni port is still showing as failed after switchyred when it becomes OK.

Conditions: Yred and APS 1+1 are configured. XLMI is runng on the enni port. On the previous active card, the port was in a fail state. When the failure got recovered very quick during the switchyred, BXM missed the OK report to BCC, so BCC still shows this port as fail state.

SW and FW version: 9.3.30 MF25

Workaround: None.

CSCdv43448

Symptom: The command dsppnports shows the port in "LostConnectivity" state.

Condition: Disable ilmi on BPX using cnfvsiif.

Work Around: Reset the card. This problem happens only in MFN due to the chkin done in Aug 13 2001. Or use Firmware image newer than MFN.

CSCdv52437

Symptom: Comm Failure after Working line experiences Remote Yellow.

Conditions: APS 1+1 bidirectional mode GR-253 and ITU After remote experiences LOS on Protection line, the local active Working line will have a Remote Yellow alarm. This alarm eventually causes a Communications failure, and traffic will be rerouted.

Workaround: Use unidirectional mode.

CSCdv57400

Symptom: Customer removes commands under ATM interface or tears vc down and up again the router will send two traps to the BXM VSI port but only looks like it is re-acting to the first trap hence the remote router will receive AIS and then transmit RDI. The connection will never come out of this state unless the remote end from the SES is bounced.

Conditions: You must be attached to a PNNI VSI port on the BXM.

Workaround:

1. Switch ILMI off on the port.

2. Disable oam-manage on the routers.

CSCdv58157

Symptom: On BXM switchover, the VSI abr VP falls to MCR.

Conditions: This symptom occurs with BXM FW up to MFN (MF30). Standby BXM should collect this VP abr connection during initial data transfer phase. ie. Standby BXM is inserted later than active card or is reset after connection provisioning. Check with 'rsh slot# sabre GetSabreParams sabre# lcn#' and look for 'Path con' field. Switchover to stdby in this case will cause the problem.

Workaround: Reassert/resync all the connections. Use firmware later than MFN.

CSCdv62493

Symptom: BXM does not send Node status counters to BCC.

Conditions: XLMI is running on card.

Workaround: None. This is an enhancement.

CSCdv66806

Symptom: Dax conn does not get rerouted if added when slave interface is down; and later when slave interface is brought back up.

Conditions: This is applicable only for dax conns on SES - not on MGX (PXM45).

Workaround: Delete and re-add the dax conn when the slave interface is up. It will get routed.

CSCdv86166

Symptom: A feeder trk shows UNREACHABLE after switchyred, while it was actually uprunning without any communication problem.

Conditions: When running FDR-LMI in a yred pair, the FDR trunk was in a fail state. After switchyred, the FDR trunk changed its state to be OK, however, dspnode still shows this fdr trk was in the unreachable state.

Workaround: This is not service impacting, although the fdr trk shows as unreachable. To get the correct state, reset the card.

Symptom: When upgrade BXM firmware image to BXMMFH from images between BXMMFC-BXMMFF, if the network migration flag was enabled in a card before the upgrading, then after burning the new image to the card, the network migration flag becomes disabled mistakenly.

Conditions: The problem only happens to the card whose previous image is BXMMFC-BXMMFF, and the network migration flag was enabled before upgrading, and BXMMFH has to be the new image.

Workaround: Upgrading to image BXMMFH+ (not including BXMMFH), will not have any problem. network migration flag is always enabled, and no user command available any more to disable it.

Only for the situation you need to upgrade image to BXMMFH and your card's previous images is BXMMFC-BXMMFF, you may see the problem. The workaround is, issue either the "rsh <slot> cdcfg network dis" command before the upgrading, or "rsh <slot> cdcfg network ena" after the upgrading, to enable the network migration flag on BXMMFH.

CSCds59710

Symptom: Loss of traffic on a VPC connection added with VPI = 0.

Conditions: This symptom occurs with SWSW: 9.3.10.

BXM FW: MFF

The port on which the VPC connection has been added has a VSI ctrlr attached to it and the Ctrlr is usingVPI = 0 and VCI = x for its signalling channel.

Workaround: If a VPC connection exists with VPI = 0, on the port to which a Ctrlr is to be added, configure the signaling channel on the controller side to use a VPI other than 0.

CSCds63578

Symptom: SW errors 105 logged on BXM while adding VSI connections. Subsequent card errors saying CB_TASK restarted.

Conditions: This error sometimes happens when a VSI partition is enabled/disabled many times.

Workaround: Reset the BXM.

CSCds65105

Symptom: When pumping the ATM CBR traffic at the rate over = of port line rate (BXM-622), at the egress 'dspchstats' shown the number of cells 'From Network' twice larger than 'To Port'.

Conditions: This symptom occurs with DAX conn from BXM-622 port 1-2 on the same node with ADTECH generate traffic.

Workaround: None.

CSCds67854

Symptom: SPVC cannot be routed over the virtual trunk even when enough bandwidth and lcn are available. Routed connections discard some traffic.

Conditions: Route connections of different service types over the virtual trunks.

Workaround: None.

CSCds04137

Symptom: Channels remain mismatch after lockout is cleared

Conditions: In ITU-T Annex B protocol for APS, when a condition causes a switch to occur while a lockout request is present, the channel change will not resynchronize even after the lockout is cleared.

Workaround: No

CSCds53645

Symptom: ABR connections (PNNI) not programmed properly for redundant slave.

Conditions: This symptom occurs with switchyred.

When connection is added, redundant card is not there and inserted at later stage.

When connection is added, there is no redundant config; addyred at later stage.

Workaround: None.

CSCds14495

Symptom: Dynamic Partitioning and SPVC AIS generation would not work on a card until a rsh command is issued to enable the network migration flag and reset the card.

Conditions: When a card comes up and has never enabled the network migration flag for life time.This network migration flag is used for enabling dynamic partitioning and SPVC AIS, status report generations. By default, the flag is disabled.

Workaround: Use the "rsh <slot> cdcfg netmig en/dis" command to enable/disable the flag, then reset the card once in a lifetime.

Description

CSCds08448

Symptom: ERS (explicit rate stamping) is working only first virtual trunk and NOT for subsequent VTs (standard ABR)

Conditions: When ERS is enabled on a card basis using "cnfabrparm", the mapping is done on a port-by-port basis. The port_vi is used but for virtual trunks, this mapping does not hold true. Need to change the mapping to the physical port.

Workaround: On any physical port, just set up one virtual trunks. Or a physical trunk. Multiple VTs on the same physical port will cause a problem.

CSCdr79610

Symptom: Change booking factor for a class of service, get rejected.

Conditions: When there are some connections established, and some of the class of service have used bandwidth exceeding their reserved, change booking factor for any class of the service may get rejected.

This is because it fails the check which should only be called when cos_min_bw in the policy parameters is changed. This check should not be called when booking factor is changed.

Workaround: Disable that partition, change the booking factor, then enable the partition again. Or keep the used_bw for all cos under teh cos_min_bw, you will be able to change booking factor freely.

CSCdr76334

Symptom: Connect OC3 port on BXM with 7200 router, connect 2 OC3 ports back to back. enable ILMI on router, and ILMI, protocol on card cnfrsrc VSI part 1 disable NebDiscovery on ports.when running cnfnodeparm 56 0|1 and With VSI disabled, peer info is transmitted to peer. delcntrl, and cnfrsrc deleting VSI partition, fails to disable Peer information as well.

Conditions: ilmi_enable_from_contrl bit was not cleared when delctrlr, or vsi partition deleted, thus vsi code kept issuing get requests and responding to peer information.

In AR/VSI hybrid networks, and for backward compatibility either BXMs w/o NebDisc, or swsw versions. Topo traps are not sent to downrev'd swsw versions, and are controllable by sw software for versions including the feature.

Code was added to properly support disabling of VSI functionality using delctrlr or cnfrsrc @ Bcc in addition to existing dnpnport @ the vsi controller. support for backrev'd cards added, and corrections to logic in Ilmi FSM state machine to properly send TopoTrap to BCC.

Workaround: None

CSCdr79936

Symptom: Stats files not generated/missing on some 15 minutes intervals.

Conditions: System time is changed at 15 minutes boundaries.

Workaround: Minimize system time and card config changes.

CSCdr83144

Symptom: Card error of "N. Fatal from 0x17: 0x25120075 0x809b5f90 0x367e 0x1."

Conditions: This symptom occurs with switchyred, switchcc or reset PXM when there are spvc connections with stats enabled.

Workaround: None.

CSCds11484

Symptom: Available cell rate reported by BXM is incorrect.

Conditions: Sum of the minimum bandwidths of all the interfaces on a BXM reaches OC12.

Workaround: Reduce minimum BW on all interfaces by half.

CSCdr89217

Symptom: Software Error Log of 9098

Conditions: This symptom occurs with cnfrsrc of partition 3 using MEB firmware.

Workaround: None.

CSCdr89966

Symptom: Card Error of 0x41030006.

Conditions: PXM controller is upgraded/re-booted.

Workaround: None.

CSCdp89085

Symptoms: The total call count becomes negative on the BXM interface. However, this problem has not been reproducible.

Conditions: If this problem happens, the following card error is displayed:

'vsi_rsrc_pfns.c 483 VrmRetLcnResources 3, 16316'

Workaround: A related bug CSCdr86894 which reported an incorrect number of total call counts, has been found to be the result of an uninitialized variable in vsi_rsrc_conn_pfns.c: VrmRsrcClrRCMP().

The debugging information embedded in this function may be helpful in verifying the negative call count problem if it is reproduced.

CSCdp05098

Symptom: Cell discards occur for ABRFST/ABRSTD conns when the traffic burst is greater than the MBS

Conditions: This occurs when the traffic burst size is fixed to 140000 cells at 70000 cps. The conn are configured with PCR=72000/72000, MBS=1000/1000 and ICR 7200/7200. This is the expected behavior since the configured MBS < the actual burst size.

Workaround: Increase the MBS and ICR using cnfcon.

CSCdr59731

Symptom: Port 11.1 is connected to 11.2 and ILMI are up and running on both ports. Enable neighbor discovery on 11.1, then 11.2.

The 0x71 responses/traps from BXM fw is not predictable. At least two variations are observed:

1. Port 11.2 has it's neighbor's info but port 11.1 does not.

2. Both port 11.1 and 11.2 only know the IP addresses of their neighbors. The Neighbor's IFName are missing.

Problem was observed in MF17, but code changes in more recent builds had already repaired the problem.

Conditions: When ILMI session restarts, remnants of IfName, IpAddr from previous session left. Clr/reset IfName, IpAddr in MIB, on ILMI session restart In FMSStart, pIlmiProcessFsmStart () calls a new function IlmiClrPeerAndSendTopoTrap (pcb_ptr->session_id).

CSCdr79936

Symptom: Stats files not generated/missing on some 15 minutes intervals.

Conditions: This symptom occurs when system time is changed at 15 minutes boundaries.

Workaround: Minimize system time and card config changes.

CSCdm16800

Symptom: Card error 0xc000007 appears in the card error log.

Conditions: This error indicates that an unknown type of cell which is not expected has arrived in the egress QE.

Workaround: Engineering has done in-depth investigation into this case. We are convinced the problem does not affect user traffic or the node in any other way. Therefore, the symptom will not be reported as a card error. The fix has been incorporated into MEE firmware.

CSCdp22930

Symptom: N/A

Conditions: Cbus rd/wr operations set up in the PUUMBA chip when performing cbus rcv/xmit.

Workaround: None.

CSCdp74680

Symptom: Even if the interface is in LOS, the spvcs do not generate ingress AIS into the network.

Conditions: Connection is added after the interface goes into LOS.

Workaround: None.

CSCdr44250

Symptom: Private image did not allow as many OAM cells to flow as public image.

Conditions: This occurred by undoing a hardware fix in a private image.

Workaround: This was never introduced into the Public view and no workaround is required.

CSCdr45986

Symptoms: Standby and active block checksum value do not match and resync happens on switchover.

Conditions: Active card has many spvc connections derouted it happens.

Workaround: None.

CSCdr71473

Symptom: Unreachable BXM, sw errors and cd errors on the BPX.

Conditions: LMI is enabled when controller either slow to respond or un-reachable.

Workaround: Disable LMI.

CSCdp97307

Symptoms: Executed "rsh <slot> vsi cm VsiIs " without parameter. The card will crash.

Conditions: Always.

Workaround: Pull out the card and reinsert.

CSCdr86894

Symptoms: Many ports have VC failure because BXM has no resource to build the CVC.

Conditions: Intermittent.

Workaround: Reset BXM card.

CSCdr57712

Symptom: Multi_partition fails to report all virtual trunks.

Conditions: This symptom occurs in case of virtual trunks with different partition.

Workaround: Reset the BXM card.

CSCdr77238

Symptom: Switch General Info does not contain bulk set capability bit. With newer images of PXM bulk set will not work with BXM images prior to MFD.

Conditions: PXM images later than 07/06/2000 contain logic to identify the bulk set capability of the slave. BXM images prior to 07/06/2000 will not have this bit set because it is newly introduced parameter in VSI spec.

Workaround: No workaround. Need to upgrade to MFD.

CSCdr29278

Symptom: Originally the card used to get frozen not responding to any request from the controller, as the TCB database was corrupted. But it has been protected now. But whenever a null pointer is being inserted into the TCB list a card error is being flagged. It is a harmless card error (not service affecting)

Conditions: The cause is unknown.

Workaround: None.

CSCdp63445

Symptom: ABR and UBR connections loose traffic when VC shaping is turned on.

Conditions: Enabling of VC shaping on port terminating ABR and UBR connections.

Workaround: Leave VC shaping disabled.

CSCdr30454

Symptom: Connections (LCNs) can not satisfied because of insufficient memory

Conditions: Channel stat level is set to 0

Workaround: Use chan stat level (cnfcdparm) 1, 2 or 3.

CSCdr14247

Symptom: The correct state of an SPVC is not reflected in connection bulk traps for large number of connections (> 1000). Sometimes Connection states keep toggling between AIS and CLR state when the conns are actually in AIS state

Conditions: AIS cells generated by the RCMP on different connections arrive too close to each other in the same second. This sudden burst of cells overwhelm the Class of service buffers (QBINs) in the Egress direction and get discarded. This causes remote end of the trunk to detect a loss of AIS cells and declare connection a CLR.

Workaround: None.

CSCdr40204

Symptom: Service rate for VBR traffic when WFQ is enabled is at SCR (instead of PCR) even when there is no congestion for enhanced cards (1210 QE & Sabre)

Conditions: For enhanced cards, when WFQ is enabled, the local congestion is monitored at the Egress side by the hardware. In order to do this, a few variables that need to be initialized. There were some problems with the initialization routine, causing inaccurate tracking of the congestion level.

Workaround: None. Has been fixed.

CSCdr42885

Symptom: All the ports on a BXM slave go into provisioning state.

Conditions: Controller looses communication with the BXM. This happens when AAL5 driver in the BXM mal-functions and does not free the message buffers of the application processes (ILMI/VSI etc). Eventually BXM runs out of message buffers.

Workaround: Reset the BXM card.

CSCdr49056

Symptom: Invalid Part id in SPVC stats after controller is added.

Condition: This problem happens when SFM receives the vsi message before adding the controller. This is possible to happen when there is a delay between 52 and 61 message. Since 52 add the control vc it will receive the frame and give it SFM task. But SFM won't have any information for that partition and will report the error saying that invalid partition. Since this is possible to happen as per design, the card is removed now.

CSCdr40234

Symptom: Service rate for UBR traffic when WFQ is enabled much lower than PCR even when there is no congestion for enhanced cards (1210 QE & Sabre)

Conditions: For enhanced cards, when WFQ is enabled, the local congestion is monitored at the Egress side by the hardware. In order to do this, a few variables that need to be initialized. There were some problems with the initialization routine, causing inaccurate tracking of the congestion level.

Workaround: None. Has been fixed.

CSCdr49060

Symptom: When doing a cnfcon for ABR connection, service rate drops to MCR rate even when there is no congestion. This is when WFQ is enabled and the inherent VSVD is not used.

Conditions: There are a certain parameters associated with WFQ that are required in order for WFQ to work. However, for ABR connections, when a cnfcon is done, once it is detected that VSVD is not enabled, the structure (Sabre rate RAM) which holds all these parameters is cleared out. This would cause WFQ not to operate properly.

Workaround: No need. Fix is done.

CSCdr43012

Symptom: All the ports on a BXM slave go into provisioning state.

Conditions: Controller looses communication with the BXM as AAL5 driver in BXM gets stuck.

Workaround: Reset the BXM card.

CSCdr52195

Symptom: All the ports on a BXM slave go into provisioning state.

Conditions: Controller looses communication with the BXM as AAL5 driver in BXM gets stuck.

Workaround: Reset the BXM card.

CSCdr36963

Symptom: When PNNI controller goes down then comes up, it couldn't establish its control call to the BXM partition, thus VC failure is displayed in PNNI controller for that partition.

Conditions: This problem only happens under the following conditions:

1. The policy parameters for the partition have been configured as nonzero at some of the class of service,i.e. the reserved minimum bandwidth of some class of service are nonzero.

2. Delete/disable that partition. BXM suppose to release all resources. However, it only released resources at partition level, but leave the reserved resources at cos level unchanged. As result, when this partition is enabled again, the internal CAC calculation at partition level became negative. That caused the first control call setup request fail.

Workaround: Reset the BXM card will clear the VC failure.

CSCdr33867

Symptom: Connect OC3 port on BXM with 7200 router, enable ILMI on router, and ILMI, protocol on card and Neighbor Discover, Object 0x31, Peer's IfName is not null terminated.

Conditions: Some peer.ifName's are null terminated, some aren't a PDU containing valid nonzero length peer.ifName doesn't always include '\0'; and is stored accordingly in the MIB. added a test if peer.ifName is non-zero in length, and isn't null terminated, concatenate the '\0'char and bump peer.ifNameLen++ count Added logic CbIlmiStatsReport, ilmi_proc.c pIlmiFsmGetResponseEventAtS3, pIlmiFsmGetResponseEventAtS9, ilmi_fsm_evt.c to ensure TopoTrap, and ILMIStats report are correctly formatted.

Workaround: None.

CSCdp48306

Symptom: On NNI side, when cross connect is established with VPI>1000 (0x3e8) the first nibble is getting chopped off and traffic is flowing on VPI 0xe8 due to bad programming of connection.

Conditions: This happens if on NNI side VPI > 0xff.

Workaround: None.

CSCdr51875

Symptom: Virtual Trunking causing Unreachability

Conditions: At least two virtual trunks share a common port at one node, but their remote endpoints terminate on different nodes.

The virtual trunks are used to carry networking (rt_op) traffic.

The simplest example follows below:

node_A ---- vtrk ----  /---- vtrk ---- node_C

  /

  /

node_B

(vtrks share common port)

With this topology, "node_A" sees "node_C" as unreachable and vice-versa; however, "node_A" communicates to "node_B", and "node_B" communicates to "node_C".

Workaround: Customers who are already using VT wraparound should continue to do so under 9.2.3x until the fix is available.

BXM virtual trunking (no VT wraparound) can still be implemented using software release 9.2.2x.

If virtual trunks are not yet in use, the VT wraparound solution can be implemented in release 9.2.3x.

CSCdr57805

Symptom: Card errors show up indicating "CB_TASK is ready"

Conditions: CB_TASK gets busy processing VSI messages and this causes root task to incorrectly assume that CB_TASK is not in a sane state. Actually a firmware change incorrectly reduced the polling interval by the root task such that it was polling the states of tasks sooner than it is supposed to.

Workaround: None. Ignore these card errors as these are benign.

CSCdr56931

Symptom: After resetsys on PXM or bouncing the feeder/control port or reset of BXM card, some virtual trunks go into vc failure/building vc state.

Conditions: Resetting PXM or pulling out the cable connecting the BXM feeder port to the controller or resetting the BXM cause the interface set policy parameters to be sent to the BXM. This cause ingress BW to be recomputed. CB_TASK passes VI numbers 0 to 31 to the CAC module which expects the range 0 to 15. This caused the problem by overindexing the CAC structures.

Workaround: None.

CSCdr59241

Symptom: Building VC status on UNI ports after repeated enabling/disabling of partition with the control port

Conditions: Controller does not send policy parameters for control port upon enabling of partition. When disabling partition, COS max bandwidth was zeroed out. With no policy parameters from which to obtain the new values, COS max bandwidth is stuck at zero; thus not allowing ant control to be established.

Workaround: Older PXM image does send policy parameters even for the partition with the control port. Control port does not require policy parameters to be sent from controller. Default it to the max bandwidth configured for the partition.

CSCdr51970

Symptom: Change CAC policy parameters will cause the available BW for some cos to be negative.

Conditions: Current implementation does not validate the CAC policy parameter change. It will always take the value. However, in some cases, improper policy parameters change will cause the avail_bw at cos level go negative. In this particular scenario, the current used bandwidth of a cos is equal to its reserved minimum bandwidth.Then the user changed the policy parameter to make this cos min_bw to smaller number. Now current_used_bw for this cos is greater than its reserved, and it has to obtained bw from the common pool to maintain its currently used bw. However, the user changed the policy parameter again, to increase the reserved bw for another cos, which caused the common pool to be zero.Therefore, by normal calculation, the previous cos avail_bw becomes to negative. Decreasing cos_min_bw to be less than it is currently used_bw is an invalid operation and should get rejected, otherwise it will mess up the CAC.

Workaround: Delete some connections to release bandwidth before decreasing cos minimum bandwidth.

CSCdr66273

Symptom: The encoding is in the reverse of the expected value by UNI4.0 spec.

Conditions: This symptom occurs with STD ABR connections.

Workaround: No workaround.

CSCdm52254

Symptom: Random BIP-8 errors show up on T3 when running in direct map (HEC) mode. There is no such thing as a BIP-8 error in the direct map mode. But this counter should report 0 in this mode.

Conditions: This is totally random due to the fact that an uninitialized (don't care) counter variable is accumulated in every poll period. This counter is not even read from hardware in the HEC mode.

Workaround: Ignore BIP-8 errors when the T3 trunks are configured in the HEC mode.

CSCdm62817

Symptom: APS line switchover occurs upon card removal when lockout is set.

Conditions: None.

Workaround: Upgrade to MEF or newer version of firmware.

CSCdp20848

Symptom: SF switchover doesnot occur after dncd/upcd execution on Annex B 1+1 APS.

Conditions: When the dncd command is executed, SWSW sends 0x27 CBUS message. The handler for this message was putting the lines in loopback and shutting down the laser. Also it was changing the line state in SoCdDown() to DOWN state. This caused subsequent upcd (0x05/0x04) message to re-initialize the lines disabling the S/UNI interrupts in the process.

Workaround: None.Upgrade to MEF or newer version of firmware.

CSCdp24224

Symptom: WTR does not occur after LOS recovery on protection line

Conditions: The meaning of primary and secondary channels were changed immediately upon switchover instead of waiting for the expiry of WTR. This caused the clearing of the failure to be accounted against the secondary channel and thus there was no WTR. Fixed by introducing a Preparation switch mode where-in the current active channel will remain as the secondary until a WTR occurs or a primary section mismatch pre-empts that state. At the expiry of WTR, the preparation switch mode is complete and the current active channel becomes the primary.

Workaround: None.Upgrade to MEF or newer version of firmware.

Symptom: No RDI-P generated when loss of Cell Delineation occurs.

Conditions: The cell header so Loss of Cell Delineation occurs. The SONET "PATH RDI" indication is not transmitted as outlined in the UNI 3.1 specification.

Workaround: None.

CSCdp32646

Symptom: WTR Timer does not work and reversion occurs during SF switchover.

Conditions: Added a preparation switch mode where the current active channel is the secondary channel. At the expiry of WTR, the secondary channel is changed to the become the primary channel.

Workaround: Upgrade to MEF or newer version of firmware.

CSCdp35156

Symptom: BPX APS reverts back to the working line before WTR time has expired

Conditions: TR was being pre-empted by a spurious SD condition. Fixed by setting the right thresholds for SF/SD based on BER.

Workaround: None. Upgrade to MFB.

CSCdp57596

Symptom: CB_TASK on BXM goes into deadlock state causing VSI session to be lost

Conditions: This happens when both Ingress and Egress qe semaphore is taken by IDLE_TASK and it never released in an error condition.

CSCdp59729

Symptom: addlnlocrmt causes node unreachable.

Conditions: addlnlocrmtlp causes node unreachable even though there are other parallel trunks.

Workaround: No known workaround.

CSCdp60696

Symptom: Both lines fail when only one line in alarm.

Conditions: After the standby card comes out of reset, its S/UNI states are not reliable for a period of 1.5 seconds and the S/UNI reports LOS clear on the WORK line. This gets conveyed to the active card and then the Manual switch gets priority and becomes the current local request. This causes a switch back to WORK. When the active card's S/UNI monitors the WORK line, it discovers that the line is in LOS and immediately switches back. The oscillations continue and the line goes into LOCKOUT due to excessive switching. In the Lockout mode only the WORK line is active and thus the defect.

Workaround: None.Upgrade to MEF or newer version of firmware.

CSCdp62213

Symptom: Switching from bi-dir to uni-dir mode APS generates APS architecture mismatch error

Conditions: When APS pair is configured from bi-dir mode to uni-dir mode the other side indicates APS architecture mismatch error, and then the other side is also configured from bi-dir mode to uni-dir mode, the APS architecture mismatch error does not clear.

Workaround: Delete APS and then add APS again - it defaults to uni-dir.

Conditions: BXM slot has errors on a BCC3 node.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm04312

Symptom: The problem is a false failure is declared against the SIMBA Multicast Record RAM.

Conditions: The problem occurs when Self Test is activated against a Y-Redundant pair of BME Cards (BXM-622 cards loaded with the multicast BME firmware) that have more than 1000 connections programmed through them.

Workaround: Disable Self Test via the cnftstparm command.

CSCdm09295

Symptom: Reconfig of FCES from enable to disable does not work, as a result traffic burst is restricted to MCR.

Conditions: This symptom occurs every time changing an existing connection from FCES enable to disable.

Workaround: Delete the connection and add back a new one with FCES disable.

CSCdm09882

Symptom: Log non fatal message related to the RCMP errors.

Conditions: It is mainly seen in the heat chamber.

Workaround: Please make sure the TEST FREQUENCY and TIMEOUT variables under cnftstparm for BXM are set to 4000/3700 level.

CSCdm16505

Symptom: AIS not sent on VP ABRFST/ABRSTD connection.

Conditions: This symptom occurs when LOS on trunk between 2 nodes.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm31923

Symptom: AIS/YEL alarm doesn't go away even after the alarm is clear from the other end.

Conditions: It happens on the E3 when the LOOP TIME parameter is set to YESin the trunk or line configuration.

Workaround: None.

Symptom: Card fatal error occurred when running in standby mode under the heat condition. As a result, the card reset periodically.

Conditions: Card is running in standby mode under heat condition.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm50659

Symptom: Trunk alarms are not generated when random bit errors are injected onto a trunk using an Adtech Sx14 test set at a rate of 10E-3. There are trunk statistics generated but no trunk alarm because the statistics that cause alarms on do not meet the threshold for MAJOR or MINOR alarms.

Conditions: This was generated in a lab environment with test equipment that was set to inject bit errors randomly through the entire bandwidth. Some HCS errors were generated as well as Path unavailable and Path Farend unavailable.

Workaround: Lowering the alarm threshold for MAJOR and MINOR HCS errors can help to generate a trunk alarm. Use the cnflnalm command and modify the Hcserr alarm thresholds to .01 for MAJOR and .0001 for MINOR. These thresholds are as low as they can be set currently.

CSCdm52585

Symptom: DspVsiPartInfo shows very large Available LCN field.

Conditions: The sum of min-lcns is greater than the max (max lcns) on a port group.

Workaround: None.

When the protection line is taken out both the working and protection display LOS. When the protection line is put back in the LOS/Alarms on the protection should clear. They do not.

Conditions: Physically remove and add the rx or both rx and tx lines as follows:

1. Remove the working line.

2. Remove the protection line.

3. Add the protection line back.

Workaround: None.

CSCdp17741

Symptom: 2-portgroup card reports 1 port group at the channel stats level 2 and 3.

Conditions: When channel stats level 2 or 3 are configured on BXm-622-2 port and BXM-155 reports only one port group.

Workaround: Auto Route connections are not affected by this. But for VSI connections there is no work around.

CSCdp18840

Symptom: The CBR.2 Calls do not pass traffic above 50 Cells/second.

Conditions: VSI controller establishes CBR.2 connection and it does not fill in the PCR field.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm90997

Symptom: BXM-E trunk and port stats are always zero in TX direction.

Conditions: Port terminated on BXM-E card or trunk passing through BXM-E card.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm80991

Symptom: Unable to add 3 segment connections using CM GUI.

Conditions: Feeder is connected to BXM card of BPX routing node and for BXM trunk configuration, ILMI/LMI protocol is enabled as CARD based.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm82688

Symptom: Traffic Shaping problems with VT with and without rap around solution.

Conditions: Large deviations in CDV values.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm94372

(See explanation below.)

Symptom: Trunks sometimes drop cbr traffic.

Conditions: If a trunk is configured to full line rate on BXM cards, then traffic is dropped.

Workaround: None.

CSCdp00063

Symptom: Node unreachability is experienced on VTs (virtual trunks).

Conditions: Multiple VTs are configured on a trunk interface of the BXM/BXM-E.

Workaround: Configure only one VT per trunk interface.


Logic to Calculate Actual Cell Transmission Rate in a BXM card (CSCdm94372)

if (configured cell rate == full line cell rate) then
transmitted cell rate = full line cell rate
else
transmitted cell rate = from equation below or from table 1

For example:

If a trunk is configured at 100,000 CPS, the actual transmitted cell rate is then 98,013 CPS any traffic sent over 98,013 CPS would be discarded.

Only rates in the table or computed from the equation should be used. Otherwise, cell loss may be experienced.

Anomalies Fixed in MEB

Table 59 lists the anomalies that are fixed in MEB.

Table 59 Anomalies Fixed in MEB 

Bug ID
Description

CSCdm50469

Symptom: Software error 105 and mallet card errors happened continuously.

Conditions: When jobs that cause reroutes of connections (e.g. switchcc, hitless rebuild) are run for a long time, sometimes BXM card freezes with malloc card errors and software error 105.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm50723

Symptom: After deleting APS, switchyred causes temporary LOS when the other end still has APS.

Conditions: One end has APS 1+1, other end was added with APS 1+1 and line is up between the two ends. Then APS is deleted from one end. The primary card is active on non APS end. On switchyred on the non APS end there is a temporary LOS. If APS was never added to one end, then switchyred does not result in temporary LOS.

Workaround: Instead of deleting APS first and then doing a switchyred, do a switchyred first and then delete APS. This does not result in temporary LOS.

CSCdm63038

Symptom: BXM card fails with breakpoint error.

Conditions: When tx cell rate of a trunk is reduced to zero, BXM card fails with break point error (division by zero).

Workaround: None.


Anomalies Fixed in MEA

Table 60 lists the anomalies that are fixed in MEA.

Table 60 Anomalies Fixed in MEA 

Bug ID
Description

CSCdm09882

Symptom: Log non fatal message related to RCMP errors.

Conditions: It is mainly seen in the heat chamber.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm18186

Symptom: AIS status could be randomly be displayed in dspcon

Conditions: When the connection AIS signal is constantly changing, the dspcon/dspchstats OAM status will not be accurate for all the connections on the card.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm26380

Symptom: Software error 9098 occured during switchyred BXM

Conditions: This problem occurs on cards with the APS channels halved option set and then doing a cnfrsrc on a port that belongs to the second port group. Note that this fix will cause a card mismatch on active cards with channel halved option turned on.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm31923

Symptom: AIS/YEL alarm doesn't go away even after the alarm is clear from the other end.

Conditions: It happens on the E3 when the LOOP TIME parameter is set to YES in the trunk or line configuration.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm37519

Symptom: Trunks go to Communication Fail after burning firmware.

Conditions: MC10 is burnt into BXM-OC12 with trunks.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm37709

Symptom: APS line fails to clear channel mismatch after lockout.

Conditions: This symptom occurs with bi-direction APS 1+1. Local end has locked out of protection set. Then WORK cable is pulled out on local end to cause LOS. Lockout is then cleared and then the WORK cable is put back. This causes a channel mismatch on the far end and the mismatch never clears.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm38647

Symptom: This bug has been fixed in MEA such that the firmware reports the correct number of port groups. The side effect of this fix is that the Switch Software could mismatch the BXM card. If there is a card mismatch then down all the lines/trunks on the card and up them again.

Conditions: When the user loads the MEA firmware on the BXM card running MDA with APS halved channeled enabled, then the card will come up in mismatched state.

Workaround: None.

CSCdm46658

Symptom: switchapsln command does not work for APS AnnexB line.

Conditions: Annex B configuration if hitless rebuild is done when active line is PROT, then switchapsln does not work after hitless rebuild.

Workaround: None.

Appendix C—UXM Model B Firmware ABV Release

This section contains information about UXM Model B firmware.

Introduction

UXM ABV is Model-B firmware release for UXM card on IGX. Firmware is the same for UXM and UXM-E cards.

New Features

This section contains the new features in ABV.

Cell Bus Parity Diagnostic—CSCdy86516

This feature allows SWSW to detect parity errors on lanes 2-4 of the backplane. Lane 1 errors are detected by the NPM.

A dummy connection is added between two UXM cards in the node and is used to send a test packet from one end of the connection to the other. By observing the parity errors count before the packet is sent and after the packet is received, you can determine whether there are parity errors on the backplane.

Obsolete Features

None.

Compatibility

1. Software:

ABV is compatible with Switch Software Releases 9.1, 9.2, and 9.3.

2. Hardware:

ABV is compatible with all models of UXM and UXM-E hardware.

3. Previous versions of UXM firmware:

On IMA trunks this version is not compatible with UXMs Model B firmware versions ABA to ABD.

On IMA trunks Model B firmware (AB*) is not compatible with model A (AA*) because model B is Standards compliant and model A is not. Therefore, IMA trunks must be upgraded together.

Appendix D—URM Model B Firmware XBC Release Notes

This section contains information about the URM Model B firmware XBC.

Introduction

URM XBC is Model-B firmware release for URM card on IGX. The URM is an IOS-based routing module for the IGX. This release is an upgrade from XBB.

New Features

This section contains new features in XBC.

RCMP Parity Policing

CSCin32112—Implementation of Policing RCMP parity errors on URM.

This feature allows URM card to continue to be in service under low rate of parity errors while informing the user of parity event. The card will be reset if the error rate exceeds a threshold rate.

URM IOS CLI

This feature improves the management of the URM by allowing access to the IOS CLI running on the URM via the IGX CLI. This feature will also enhance Serviceability by further enabling remote recovery of the URM beyond the RRC feature introduced in 9.3.30 software.

This feature allows users to access the IOS CLI of the URM embedded router from the IGX CLI, so that users can access the router without having to be physically connected to the IOS Console port on the URM backcard

Obsolete Features

None.

Compatibility

1. Software

XBC firmware is compatible with Switch Software Release 9.3.47.

2. Hardware

XBC firmware is compatible with URM hardware.

Upgrade Instructions

No special upgrade instructions in upgrading the URM Admin firmware from XBB to XBC.

Boot Code Requirements

Boot Code revision boot_2 is needed for the XBC release.

Unsupported Configurations or Applications

The 0/1023 is a special VC used by URM for IPC between Admin Processor and IOS. When configuring MPLS network, do not commit any cross-connect or control-vc on the port. Otherwise, SWERRS or non-working configurations might occur.

Notes and Cautions

1. The URM back card is hot-swappable; however the IOS processor is held in reset when back card is removed.

2. Card Mismatch might occur since XBA supports both BC-2FE2V and BC-2FE. Card mismatch is declared if BC-2FE2V and BC-2FE are swapped out of an ACTIVE URM card. Back cards of two different types can be swapped only in a STANDBY URM card.

3. If Remote Router Configuration feature is used to burn the IOS configuration in the card, the burned configuration cannot be deleted but can be overwritten only by another configuration.

Reporting Security Problems in Cisco Products

Cisco is committed to delivering secure products. We test our products internally before we release them, and we strive to correct all vulnerabilities quickly. If you think that you have identified a vulnerability in a Cisco product, contact PSIRT:

For Emergencies only —  security-alert@cisco.com

An emergency is either a condition in which a system is under active attack or a condition for which a severe and urgent security vulnerability should be reported. All other conditions are considered nonemergencies.

For Nonemergencies —  psirt@cisco.com

In an emergency, you can also reach PSIRT by telephone:

1 877 228-7302

1 408 525-6532


Tip We encourage you to use Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) or a compatible product (for example, GnuPG) to encrypt any sensitive information that you send to Cisco. PSIRT can work with information that has been encrypted with PGP versions 2.x through 9.x.

Never use a revoked or an expired encryption key. The correct public key to use in your correspondence with PSIRT is the one linked in the Contact Summary section of the Security Vulnerability Policy page at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/products_security_vulnerability_policy.html

The link on this page has the current PGP key ID in use.

If you do not have or use PGP, contact PSIRT at the aforementioned e-mail addresses or phone numbers before sending any sensitive material to find other means of encrypting the data.

After you describe your situation, the TAC Service Request Tool provides recommended solutions. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your service request is assigned to a Cisco engineer. The TAC Service Request Tool is located at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/techsupport/servicerequest

For S1 or S2 service requests, or if you do not have Internet access, contact the Cisco TAC by telephone. (S1 or S2 service requests are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded.) Cisco engineers are assigned immediately to S1 and S2 service requests to help keep your business operations running smoothly.

To open a service request by telephone, use one of the following numbers:

Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)

Definitions of Service Request Severity

To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity definitions.

Severity 1 (S1)—An existing network is down, or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operations are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.

Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of the network is impaired, while most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.

Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
