Challenges of CE for Service Providers
• Turn-up services quickly and efficiently – be competitive, get revenues ASAP
• On/Off-Net services – footprint and more revenue
• Reliability/Up-time (99.999%) - enable SLAs and keep revenues
• Quality – customer satisfaction – retention – keep revenues coming
• Efficient operation - keep costs down – be competitive and profitable
11
Response to Challenges
• New Protocol Solutions– Point-to-Point Link OAM (802.3ah)– End-to-End Service Connectivity Fault OAM (802.1ag)– End-to-End Service Performance Monitoring (Y.1731)
• Enable quick turn-up – Acct acquisition/revenue • Increase reliability/up-time – Acct retention/revenue• Enables SLA commitments – Keep revenue• Enable efficient service operation / maintenance
(man/machine/time/energy) – reduce OPEX

• Link and Service OAM– OAM Components and Protocols – OAM Hierarchies and Testing

Ethernet OAM / CFM
Ethernet OAM / CFM provides a critical feature to Provider Ethernet networks to ensure they are “Carrier Grade”. OAM and E-LMI are included in the UNI Type 2 MEF standard.
“Link OAM”:– IEEE 802.3ah Clause 57– EOAM “Ethernet in the first mile” –
used on access links. • Provides four key mechanisms:
– Remote loopback– Remote failure indication– Link monitoring– Loopback Control
• Good for single links, but does not monitor across EVC
15
Ethernet OAM / CFM
“Service OAM”– IEEE 802.1ag – “Connectivity Fault Management (CFM)” –
used over EVC. • Mechanisms include
– Continuity Check (CC)– Loopback– Linktrace– Also provides the ability to monitor at specific service
levels (including customer, service provider, operator, section) and support for maintenance domains.
– ITU-T Y.1731 – “OAM Functions and Mechanisms for Ethernet based networks”
• Provides all of the 802.1ag functionality with additions including:
– Delay Measurement (DM)– Delay Variation Measurement (DVM)– Loss Measurement (LM)– Automatic Protection Switching (APS)
16
OAM Layer Components
• Each layer support OAM capabilities independently• OAMs interoperate • Component responsibilities are complementary
17
Protocol Positioning
• “Link OAM” 802.3ah is run on a point-to-point L2 Ethernet link. It is a common requirement for the access link
• “Service OAM” CFM 802.1ag/Y.1731 is run over a L2 Ethernet service end-to-end. It can traverse many L2 Ethernet hops, but is tunneled over MPLS along with the other customer traffic
18
802.3ah Ethernet OAM Test Challenges
• Functional Protocol Validation– Test Discovery
• Verify capability exchange• Test Active/Passive roles• Change capabilities and verify change
– Test Loopback• Put remote port in loopback, ensure state change• Transmit data to test link
– Test Faults• Dying Gasp, Critical Events, Link Errors, Link Fault• Configure DUT to take action on fault and verify action
– Verify all counters and logs– Verify state machine stability (enable/disable/state changes)– Test OUI and Optional TLVs – (transmit and verify receive)
• Integrate OAM in Higher Scale and Performance Testing– Enable OAM on ports and run traditional tests (like RFC 2544)
• Standardized testing will be defined as part of UNI Type 2 MEF specification
19
Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) Example
This example shows Maintenance Associations (MAs) between Maintenance End Points (MEPs) at three levels within a Maintenance Domain (MD). Maintenance Intermediate Points (MIPs) can be associated per MD or per MA which depends on the visibility the administer has configured.

Ethernet Service OAM Test Challenges
• Basic Protocol Functionality– Ethernet CFM are new protocols and basic functionality and operation needs to
be verified and exercised in the lab
• Scalability and Performance– Generating and responding to CFM PDUs puts additional strain on network
elements. Within a single Maintenance Domain there could be over 8,000 Maintenance Associations concurrently running. Each participating Maintenance Point needs to examine and process each PDU. CC intervals can be configured as low as 3.33ms which may have performance impacts. Test hundreds of ports concurrently.
• Interoperability– Ethernet CFM standards (especially 802.1ag) have recently been updated
causing all Network Equipment Manufactures to update their implementation. Significant testing is required to ensure interoperability between various products and vendors.
• Inter-working– Testing and validating inter-working with other Carrier Ethernet technologies is
required for successful end to end service delivery

Ethernet Service Demarcation Points
• UNI (User-to-Network Interface)– Demarcation point between
• Ethernet Service Provider/Access Network Provider and Subscriber– Ethernet Service (EVC) starting/ending point
• E-NNI (External Network-to-Network Interface)– Demarcation/peering point between:
• Ethernet Service Provider (ESP) and Access Network Provider• ESP and Transport (Long Haul) Network Provider

E-NNI Constructs: Component EVC (CEVC)
• MP-to-MP EVC1 associates UNI4, UNI5 and UNI6
• EVC1 decomposed into 3 CEVCs
– CEVC A1 within Operator A’s network
– CEVC B1 within Operator B’s network
– CEVC C1 within Operator C’s network

E-NNI Constructs: Tunnels, VUNIs and RUNIs
• Tunnels– Transit Tunnels (associates two E-NNIs)– Terminating Tunnels (associates a VUNI and an RUNI)
• VUNI (Virtual UNI)– Logical interface at endpoint of E-NNI side of Terminating Tunnel– Maps CEVC(s) to its Terminating Tunnel
• RUNI (Remote UNI)– Logical interface at end point of UNI side of the Terminating Tunnel

MEF E-NNI, VUNI and CEVC Service Attributes- A comparison to MEF UNI and EVC Service Attributes
• E-NNI and VUNI Service Attributes modeled after UNI Service Attributes– Ingress/Egress Bandwidth Profiles– MTU Size– Identifier
• CEVC Service Attributes modeled after EVC Service Attributes– S-VLAN ID Preservation vs. C-VLAN ID Preservation– Max. Number of VUNI Endpoints vs. Max. Number of UNIs– MTU Size
These similarities will facilitate and accelerate implementation and deploymentThese similarities will facilitate and accelerate implementation and deployment

VUNI1 at E-NNI1 with Transport Network Provider
• Transport Network Provider– Provides CEVC2 connection between E-NNI1 (VUNI2) and E-NNI2
(VUNI3) with Ethernet Service Provider

32
Why relevant for Mobile Backhaul?
• Mobile services need Coverage
• Leasing backhaul services is a common practice
• High capacity, low cost creates new opportunities– Wholesale– RAN sharing– Converged operations A better way to do business
in Mobile Backhaul
33
Mobile Backhaul Market Survey
• Evaluate network planning assumptions and integrate the derived needs from the MEF Implementation Agreement (IA)
• 41 operators/worldwide coverage (APAC 20%, EMEA 49%, NA 27% and LA 5%)
• Independent research commissioned by the MEF
34
Mobile Backhaul Market Survey- Highlights
Will you require Ethernet Service OAM (IEEE 802.1ag, ITU-T Y.1731)?
Will you require UNI at the RAN BS will need to support Link OAM (IEEE 802.3ah)
Will you require UNI at the RAN NC will need to support Link OAM (IEEE 802.3ah)
Require (78%) Likely
Likely (91%) Not
Likely (85%) Not
35
SOAM - A Major Industry Education Challenge
• Will you require Ethernet Service OAM (IEEE 802.1ag, ITU-T Y.1731) to perform connectivity and fault management?
36
Ethernet OAM
• Collectively refers to Link OAM and Service OAM• Ethernet OAM requirements are not specified in any
current mobile standards from 3GPP, 3GPP2 or IEEE – And normally not implemented on mobile equipment…
• Link OAM– For UNI-N and UNI-C for the RAN NC and RAN BS are
recommended.
• Service OAM– For UNI-N and UNI-C for the RAN NC and RAN BS are a must

• A scenario for future Mobile backhaul IA work• RAN BS and the RAN NC are not likely to reside on

38
Further Reasons for E-t-E E-NNI and OAM
• Business models:– In the mobile world dictate local optimization– ENNI and SOAM enables a lower cost backhaul network
• Scale: – An Ethernet service should be delivered to 000s base stations – Self own Vs. lease parts of the network need to interconnect– Different groups handle aggregation and access backhaul
• Cost:– Leverage existing networks
serving residential DSL and business services
– Lease of substantial parts of the network
– Use of multiple technologies
– Concurrent traffic delivery over different network
• E.g. DSL and Lease lines (Legacy split access)
