1 Introduction

1.1 Purpose

This document lists the BTI Services Access Series features in releases 1.2, 1.2.1, and

1.2.2, and the known and resolved issues from Release 1.2 to Release 1.2.3.

1.2 BTI Service Access features

The BTI Service Access 810 is a compact, modular, multiservice, carrier-grade platform

designed to deliver both Ethernet and TDM interface connectivity in support of mobile

backhaul and Ethernet business services.

Its 1 RU form factor, low power and industrial temperature hardware design allows for

deployment in the outside plant cabinets, cellular tower sites, central offices and

enterprise wiring closets. With the modular design, the base system addresses the entire

requirements of a Carrier Ethernet access site and with optional TDM modules the device

can address TDM access requirements.

The Service Access 810 is a Certified MEF2.0 platform delivering Ethernet Private Line,

Ethernet Virtual Private Line and Ethernet LAN based connectivity for business and 4G

mobile backhaul services. Based upon the latest generation of switching technologies

the platform delivers on the promise of Carrier Ethernet technologies such as ITU-T

G.8032v2 with sub 50ms protection switching, ITU-T Y.1731 messages at 3.3ms and the

MEF abstraction layer of Ethernet Services. With each sequential software release this

advanced switching platform will further evolve to support E-TREE and E-ACCESS

services.

With dedicated hardware for traffic performance monitoring the Service Access 810

delivers on today’s requirement for hardware based Y.1731 latency, jitter and frame lose

ratio measurements. With MAC address swapping and station loopback the platform

eliminates the need for remote test loopback equipment or dedicated NIDs during service

turn-up or troubleshooting. Based upon field programmable hardware technologies, the

platform is also positioned to evolve to support protocols such as ITU-T Y.1564 for out-of-

service Ethernet service activation testing and Latching Loopback as being currently

defined by MEF.

To address legacy PDH interfaces (specifically T1 and E1 interfaces) and SONET/SDH

interfaces (specifically OC3/STM1) the product enables and transport the PDH data

streams across the Carrier Ethernet network using industry standard circuit emulation

service (CES) as defined by MEF. With dedicated hardware for 1588v2 clock recovery

the Service Access 810 provide 1 Pulse per Second (1PPS) and Time of Day (ToD) GPS

Minimum Recommended Data sentence (GPRMC) outputs for phase and clock

synchronization. The system’s synchronization source can be derived from any of the

following: SyncE Ethernet interfaces, BITS In, Any SONET/SDH interface, Any T1/E1

interface and the embedded 1588v2 slave clock. Once locked the system clock meets

the accuracy, stability, and holdover specifications required for stratum 3 timing (ANSI

T1.101).



1.3 Release 1.2 Feature Introduction

Software release 1.2 adds support for the following:

Active / Standby LAG

Ethernet Fault Propagation Shutdown

ERPS (G8032v) over LAG

1.4 Release 1.2.1 Feature Introduction

Software release 1.2.1 adds support for the following:

OC-3/STM-1 Hybrid Protection Switchover


Software release 1.2.2 adds support for the following:

AC Power Supply Module

One way delay and delay variation measurements (requires 1588 firmware update)

Increased CBS and EBS maximum settings from 98kbytes to 640kbytes

Commands to enable or disable ADMIN/ALARM of VC11/VC12 circuit

22586 Description: UNI port LAGs are not supported.

23618 Description: Port Mirroring: CPU in-bound packets are not mirrored.

24488 Description: Closing a telnet session during an upgrade activity

interrupts the upgrade process. This may leave some tasks suspended resulting in a customer support call to recover. Workaround: During the upgrade procedure, do not remove the NE

connection until the upgrade is complete.

24482 Description: ERPS is not support over LAG.

24449 Description: Enabling CCM for a MEP on a TDM module port causes

packet loss in TDM traffic.

24450 Description: The “config system factory-default” command does not

reset the TDM module to the default configuration.

26328 Description: Cannot add MEP to 1588 Port 4/1.

26629 Description: The 10-second Interface Average Rate statistic may show

an impossibly large number for the first 10 seconds. The next 10-second interval collection will read correctly. This is only an issue for the first 10-second statistic collection.

3 Known product limitations

The following table lists known product limitations in this release:

Issue Number

Description

22119 Description: SyncE synchronization reference support is provided for a single NNI on

the main chassis. If a secondary SyncE reference is desired it must be from an GigE interface on an Optional 4GE module. Workaround: Dual SyncE input synchronization reference support requires the

optional 4GE module

23934 Description: Optional module detection is polled every second. When an optional

module is pulled and re-inserted in a very short period of time, the optional module provisioning my not get applied. Workaround: When pulling optional modules, allow at least 5 seconds to finish the

slot insert or remove action.

24384 Description: The data traffic load-balance for a LAG interface is not even when the

number of links is three. Load balance is more uniform with even port groups Workaround: None.

25939 Description QoS is not supported for LAG interfaces Workaround: None.

26540 Note

Description: The system supports a maximum of 8 local users accounts. Workaround: If more user accounts are required RADIUS authentication may be

used. Previous release configuration files should not be restored to a unit which is operating a later release.



4 Known issues

The following table lists known issues in this release:

Issue Number Description

Software upgrade Description: Forward compatibility from Release 1.0/1.0.1 to

release 1.1/1.2 may require an additional SW installation procedure to maintain the configuration files. Workaround: Release 1.1/1.2 documentation includes a SW

upgrade document providing instruction on this procedure. Upgrades for NEs running 1.0 or 1.1 default configuration can go directly to Release 1.2.

24153 Description: Multicast and Broadcast packets are not load-

shared across multiple LAG links. These packets will flow on one link. Workaround: None.

28036 Description: There is no “dropped traffic stats” for E-Service. Workaround: None

27020 Description: The current release cannot tunnel LACP packets. Workaround: None

28041 Description: The SNMP interface does not respond any SNMP

request while performing a “upgrade-iimage”. Workaround: Try to avoid PSM operation against the node

when doing upgrading system.

26449

Description: EFPSD does not function on copper SFPs with

FULL100/FULL1000 mode. Workaround: For EFPSD to work with copper SFPs, auto-

negotiation mode should be enabled.

26711

Description: Forced switch/Manual Switch ERPS commands do

not work after upgrading from release 1.0/1.1. In 1.0/1.1. Workaround: Modify the the ERPS version from V1 to V2 after

upgrade the system from 1.0/1.1.

27274

Description: Downgrades on line cards may generate spurious

error messages. These messages are harmless but indicate a compatibility issue between the software the line card is running and the system software. Workaround: Always try to upgrade or keep all of the system

running software from the same packaged release.

28327

Description: Signal degrade on OC3/STM-1 does not trigger a

hybrid protection switch. Workaround: None




25989

Description: The order of operation is important when disabling

learning of LAG group. To disable learning the users should: 1> Add UNI, NNI (LAG), EVC. 2> Add lag member 3> Disable the the learning of LAG Then, the learning disabling will take effect. The mac cannot be learned at the LAG point. Workaround: Follow the prescribe order of operations.

26110

Description: Modifying the in-band management IP to an IP

which is on the same subnet as the out of band management IP will result in an error message but will cause the default gateway to be disabled. This could result in a loss of IP management connectivity to the NE. Workaround: None

26164

Description: No alarm will be raised when LAG interface is

'ADMIN-Up' but in an 'OPER-Down' state. Workaround: Port state will display correctly using CLI.

25994

Description: A port that is assigned to a LAG can also be added

to another LAG. Workaround: Users should ensure ports are only assigned to a

single LAG .

30273

Description: Station loopback does not loop back frames with

DEI/CFI set. Workaround: None

5 Known proNX Service Manager issues

The following table lists known proNX Service Manager issues in this release:


24329/24502 Description: : The creation, modification, or deletion of multiple Ethernet services

within a short period (less than ~5 seconds) using the proNX Service Manager is not supported. Workaround: When using the proNX Service Manager to delete Ethernet

services or to “auto-provision CFM” services, wait for the proNX SM to return with a “Finished” message in the task window.

6 Special upgrade instructions
