When the button Refresh is pressed, the messages shown hereafter will be displayed. • Hardware type conversion: The operator saved a configuration file with a MSS1c 10 E1. Later he replaces the MSS-1c 10 E1 with a MSS-1c 16 PDH and wants to load this saved configuration on the new MSS-1c. As the MSS-1c hardware is different, a conversion of the data is needed to adapt the configuration to the new MSS-1c 16E1. This message is displayed to warn the operator: Figure 7 Hardware type conversion warning If the operator cancels the conversion, this message is displayed, the loading and conversion are then stopped and the data displayed in the MSS-1c screens stay unmodified. Figure 8 Conversion canceled • MAC address conversion: The operator saved a configuration file on a NE. He wants to load this configuration on another NE, with the same type of MSS-1c. As the MAC address of the NE (used to create cross-connections) is different, a conversion of the data is needed to adapt the configuration to the new NE. This message is displayed to warn the operator: Figure 9 MAC address conversion warning If the operator cancels the conversion, this message is displayed, the loading and conversion are stopped and the data displayed in the MSS-1c screens are unmodified. Issue 01 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA 29 MSS-1c provisioning MPT Craft Terminal User Manual • Both conversions may be applied on the same file, one after the other. This is the case when the file has been saved with a MSS-1c 10E1 on another NE. 1.2.1.3 Conversion error It is not possible to load a configuration file saved in a MSS-1c 16 E1 topology on a MSS-1c 10 E1. There is no conversion provided and this message will warn the operator in this case.

Start the WebEML following the procedure in Log in to and out of system. Depending on the WebEML version you are using and the Software Package version (NE release) loaded in the MPT, you can experience different situations: − Situation 1: the main screen of the MPT opens. You need to check whether the Software Package version must be updated. If needed, proceed as described in the 9500 MPR Software Installation and NE Upgrade Manual. − Situation 2: A popup message is displayed as shown in Figure 12. Figure 12 NE Type or Release not supported This means that the MCT/TCO could not locate a path associated with the Software loaded in the MPT. This can be caused by an installation error. You must use an MCT/TCO version higher or equal to the current software release. First, upload this MCT/TCO version from the OLCS server to your laptop and then run it. You will then face situation 1 or situation 3 in which it will be possible to downgrade the Software in the MPT to align with the SW Release used in the network. − Situation 3: You are not able to click on the Show button of the NEtO and a popup message indicating a version mismatch is displayed: 32 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Figure 13 MSS-1c provisioning Version mismatch This means that the MCT/TCO version used is not compatible with the Software loaded in the MPT. The software on the MPT is likely an earlier release than the MCT/TCO. You must use MCT/TCO version higher or equal to the current software release. First, upload this MCT/TCO version from OLCS server to your laptop and then run it. You will then face situation 1 in which it will be possible to downgrade the Software in the MPT to align with the SW Release used in the network. Note: Nokia regularly introduces new NE release in production that may be not the one you are using on your network. 7. In such case, press the Yes button in the Version mismatch to have access to the Show button in the NEtO window. 8. Click on the Show button. The message in Figure 14 will be displayed.

Auto negotiation: a. check the box: the port will negotiate speed and duplex mode with its peer b. do not check the box: speed and duplex mode are selected by the operator (Forced mode) Note: Forced mode setting is not recommended for a definitive configuration. Autonegotiation should be chosen. iii. If Auto negotiation is selected, for Speed select one or several check boxes, the same for duplex mode 36 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual MSS-1c provisioning iv. If Auto negotiation is not selected, for Speed select only one value, the same for duplex mode. v. If Auto negotiation is selected, the Flow Control can be configured. • To configure a SyncE electrical port as user 2, proceed the same way as for user 1. In addition configure the Network synchronization. a. Auto, if you do not use the syncE property of the port b. SyncE IN, if you use the port as synchronization input. MSS-1c receives clock from external equipment. c. SyncE OUT, if you use the port as a synchronization output. MSS-1c sends its clock to external equipment. Note: this feature is authorized only if the port is set in Auto negotiation mode with speed 1000 Mbit/s and full duplex only. • With SFP connected to the relevant slots, user ports 3 and 4 can be configured in electrical or optical mode. When the Port Enable Check box is selected, you can choose the type of SFP in the SFP list (Disabled, Electrical, or Optical) − In the Electrical mode, the configuration is like user 1. − In the Optical mode, the Port configuration can be set to Auto negotiation or not (forced mode).

Verify on the PC, that the WebEML application has been installed (if not, see the 9500 MPR Software Installation and NE Upgrade Manual to install it). 3. Configure the PC network card interface. See the 9500 MPR Software Installation and NE Upgrade Manual. 4. Start the WebEML following the procedure in Log in to and out of system. Depending on the WebEML version you are using and the MPR-e Software Package version (NE release) loaded in the MPR-e, you can experience different situations: − Situation 1: the main screen of the MPT opens. You need to check whether the Software Package version must be updated. If needed, proceed with a software upgrade as described in the 9500 MPR Software Installation and NE Upgrade Manual. − Situation 2: A popup message is displayed as shown in Figure 34. 62 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Figure 34 MPR-e provisioning NE Type or Release not supported This means that the MCT/TCO could not locate a path associated with the Software loaded in the MPT. This can be caused by an installation error. You must use an MCT/TCO version higher or equal to the current software release. First, upload this MCT/TCO version from the OLCS server to your laptop and then run it. You will then face situation 1 or situation 3 in which it will be possible to downgrade the Software in the MPT to align with the SW Release used in the network. − Situation 3: You are not able to click on the Show button of the NEtO and a popup message indicating a version mismatch is displayed: Figure 35 Version mismatch This means that the MCT/TCO version used is not compatible with the Software loaded in the MPT. The software on the MPT is likely an earlier release than the MCT/TCO. You must use MCT/TCO version higher or equal to the current software release. First, upload this MCT/TCO version from OLCS server to your laptop and then run it. You will then face situation 1 in which it will be possible to downgrade the Software in the MPT to align with the SW Release used in the network. Note: Nokia regularly introduces new NE release in production that may not be the one you are using on your network. 5. In such case, press the Yes button in the Version mismatch to have access to the Show button in the NEtO window. 6. Click on the Show button. The message in Figure 36 will be displayed.

Adaptive Modulation in a point-to-point system is to adjust the modulation as well as a range of other system parameters based on the near-instantaneous channel quality information perceived by the receiver, which is fed back to the transmitter with the aid of a feedback channel. The switching between the modulation schemes is hitless and maintains the same RF channel bandwidth. The system can operate with different types of ODUs according to the RF band and to the channel arrangement. There are ODUs that can manage only one shifter or several predefined shifters. 13.3 Procedure To configure the radio Note: 2048 QAM modulation is supported only on MPT-HCHQAM/XP-HQAM in frequency bands up to 23 GHz and for Channel Spacing above or equal to 14 MHz. 1. From the Commissioning or Maintenance perspective, choose Configuration → Radio from the Navigator panel. The Radio Configuration tab panel opens. Issue 01 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA 117 Radio configuration MPT Craft Terminal User Manual 2. From the Telecommunications standard panel, select the ETSI or ANSI market. 3. The operation mode can be with Fixed Modulation (FCM) or with the Adaptive Modulation (ACM). a. For operation with Fixed Modulation (FCM) (Figure 86 and Figure 87) perform the following in the Modulation panel: i. In the Coding Modulation Type field, select Fixed (FCM). ii. In the Channel Spacing field, select the channel spacing to be used: ETSI: up to 56 MHz for MPT-HC/HC-HQAM/MC/XP/XP-HQAM ANSI: up to 60 MHz for MPT-HC/XP/HC-HQAM/XP-HQAM/9558HC/ HLC iii. For MPT-HC-HQAM only: check the MPT-HC compatibility check box if needed. If the MPT-HC compatibility check box is checked, MPT-HC HQAM and MPT-HC can be mixed on both sides of a radio hop. iv. Select the Modem Profile Option: Current Mask Standard Profile or New Mask Standard Profile In the ETSI market: Current mask standard profile or New mask standard profile In the ANSI market: Choose Standard Profile v. In the Reference Modulation field, select the Modulation scheme: In the ETSI market: up to 256 QAM for MPT-HC, MPT-MC, and MPT-XP up to 2048 QAM for MPT-HC-HQAM (if the compatibility with MPT-HC box is unchecked) In the ANSI market: up to 256 QAM for MPT-HC, MPT-XP, and 9558HC up to 2048 QAM for MPT-HC- HQAM (if the compatibility with MPT-HC box is unchecked) vi. Based on the selected Channel Spacing and the Reference Modulation, the relevant capacity will appear in the Net Radio Capacity field. b. For Operation with Adaptive Modulation (ACM) (Figure 88), perform the following in the Modulation panel: i. In the Coding Modulation Type field, select Adaptive (ACM). ii. In the Channel Spacing field, select the channel spacing. 118 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Radio configuration iii. For MPT-HC-HQAM only: check the MPT-HC compatibility check box if needed. If the MPT-HC compatibility check box is checked, MPT-HC HQAM and MPT-HC can be mixed on both sides of a radio hop. iv. Select the Modem Profile Option: In the ETSI market: Choose Current mask standard profile or New mask standard profile In the ANSI market: Choose Standard Profile v. In the Reference Modulation field, select the reference modulation. For MPT-HC/MC/XP this modulation scheme is the lowest one. For MPT-HLC or MPT-HC-HQAM/XP-HQAM, the lowest modulation can be lower than the reference modulation. vi. In the Allowed Modulation field, select all the modulation schemes to be used with the Adaptive Modulation. The modulation schemes (from the lowest to the highest scheme) must be contiguous. Modulation is limited to 256QAM for MPT-HC, MPT-MC and MPT-XP. For MPT-HC HQAM/XP-HQAM modulation up to 2048 QAM is available if the compatibility with MPT-HC is unchecked. Warning: If the changes increase the current radio bandwidth, the warning message (Figure 85) will be raised to the operator. The new setting must be validated with Nokia. Figure 85 Warning screen 4. Configure Frequency: i. In the Shifter field, select the suitable shifter. ii. In the Tx frequency field, enter the suitable Tx frequency (the Rx frequency is automatically calculated by using the entered Tx frequency and the shifter). iii. The Rx frequency field will displays the calculated Rx frequency, but, by selecting the Issue 01 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA 119 Radio configuration MPT Craft Terminal User Manual iv. Allow Rx Frequency Tuning check box this frequency can be changed in ±+5 MHz increments to implement the Exotic shifter configuration, if required. 5. To mute the transmitter, select the Mute check box. 6. Select the Transmit Power Control Mode: RTPC or ATPC. 7. Configure RTPC settings: a. Tx power without Adaptive Modulation If the ATPC is disabled, the Tx Power field is available. The Tx Power range is displayed in the screen. In this field, enter the new value within the allowed transmitted power range. b. Tx Power with Adaptive Modulation You can modify only the Tx power relevant to the lowest modulation scheme. In this field you must enter the constant power, which will be used with the lowest modulation. Note: The same power value will be used by the other modulation schemes. 8. Configure ATPC settings: i. ATPC Remote RSL Threshold The value of the low power threshold can be changed by writing the new value in the field. When the Rx power is equal to this power the ATPC algorithm starts to operate. The set point of the ATPC regulation (ATPC RSL threshold) must be chosen considering the link budget. For example if the set point is too high, the remote transmitter will permanently remain at maximum power. It is recommended to choose a value at least 15 dB above the 10-6 BER threshold. In ATPC+ACM the RSL threshold must be set correctly in order to ensure that the maximum throughput capacity is met while ATPC is working. The typical minimum margin compared to the highest modulation 10-6 BER Threshold, is somewhere between 7dB (low modulation) to 11dB (high modulation). These values are for information only and are radio configuration dependent. ii. Min ATPC Tx power and Max ATPC Tx power 120 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Radio configuration The Min Tx power and Max Tx power, within the Tx Range in the ATPC management, can be written in the relevant field.

If the link identifier is Enabled, the following fields can be filled in: • Tx Radio Link Identifier: This field is the link identifier entered on the transmitting NE (1 to 255) • Expected Rx Radio Link Identifier: This field is the link identifier expected at the receiving NE (0 to 255). Note: If the Expected Rx Link Identifier is "0", there is no link identifier mismatch management. • Packet Throughput Booster: In order to improve the use on air bandwidth, the MPT can compress the packet applying the following principle: whenever a packet is received with a known packet header at remote site, the MPT saves bandwidth by not transmitting this header each time. Only some learning bytes allow to index the corresponding known packet header. When activated the MPT will compress, when possible, the packet to save air bandwidth. To activate the Packet Throughput Booster, select the check box. Note: The remote NE must have also enabled its Packet Throughput Booster feature for decompression capabilities. • Latency Optimization: for latency-sensitive applications, latency optimization can be enabled to minimize latency. This is applicable to TDM and Ethernet traffic. The latency improvement is in the range of about 0.15 ms.

In the TMN RF panel, select a check box to obtain access to the NE in the remote radio station. TMN RF can be set up over PPP protocol or through an In-Band management. In-Band management is used to inter-operate with NEs that do not support PPP, such as NEs in Single NE mode with 7705 SAR. a. For the TMN RF over PPP, select “TMN RF PPP” (as shown in Figure 100) b. For the In-band management, tick the “TMN RF In-Band”. Then configure the IP address, the network mask and the VLAN ID [range 2..4080] allocated to the TMN RF in-band interface. This IP address and the remote NE TMN RF In-band IP address must be in the same subnet. Figure 100 TMN RF field Note: The TMN RF in-band Van ID must be different from the one configured for User Ethernet TMN in-band. You need to ensure the consistency of the TMN RF configuration at both ends of the radio interface, otherwise the TMN RF in-band link will not set up. 4. For the MSS-1c only, in the NMS1/NMS2 fields, assign the IP parameters to the 10/100Base-T 2 Ethernet ports (if required) for NMS application. 138 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Network interface configuration Note: In case of change of NMS1 (or 2) IP address previously used for NMS2 (or 1), proceed in 2 steps: disable NMS2 (or 1) and apply the configuration then change NMS1 (or 2) and apply the configuration.

By default LLDP is disabled. The lower part of the tab displays the following for MPR-e: • The radio neighbor of the MPT. The neighbor is unique. It is discovered using an Nokia proprietary discovery protocol. If a radio failure occurs, the shows the current known radio neighbor until a new one is discovered. • The LLDP neighbor of the MPT. The LLDP neighbor is also unique; see Automatic link discovery in the 9500 MPR Product Information Manual. However, because a neighbor may announce several management IP addresses in its LLDP PDU, the table may contain several rows, one per IP address. See Figure 116.

The menu has the following sub-menus: • Performance history file upload • Normalized • Adaptive modulation • Ethernet QoS • RSL history • Monitoring (see Viewing alarms and Power and modem measurements) 25.2.1.1 Performance history file upload This menu allows you to export a .csv file with data regarding the performance counters. This operation is done through an FTP (by default) or SFTP session, see Figure 145 and Figure 146. For the QoS Ethernet Counter history and MPR-e Traffic Port Ethernet Counters file upload the counter period duration can be adjusted from 5 to 3600 s. It can be modified by typing the in the History Period field and applying the value. Issue 01 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA 177 Performance monitoring 25.2.1.2 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Normalized The MPR-e supports normalized Hop PM for 1+0 configuration. When in 1+1 HSB configuration, Link PM is also provided by the EPS active MPR-e. The EPS standby MPR-e reports only Hop PM and no data for Link PM. Whenever an EPS switch occurs (automatic or issued by operator), the current period is declared suspected and PM link monitoring continues on the new EPS active MPR-e. 25.2.1.2.1 Counters thresholds In the Counters Thresholds screen the Low Threshold and High Threshold can be changed for each G.826 parameter (BBE, ES, SES). The high threshold will cause the activation of a Threshold exceeded alarm during the Performance Monitoring period and the low threshold will cause the deactivation of the same alarm. Note: For the 24-hour report only the High Threshold can be changed. 25.2.1.2.2 15Min counters The upper part of the screen will show the values of the current 15-min period; the lower part will show the last elapsed 15-min period.

The following warnings and cautions apply while operating, performance testing, troubleshooting, or repairing the 9500 MPR series radios. Danger: Short circuits in low-voltage, low-impedance dc circuits can cause severe arcing that may result in burns or eye injury. Remove rings, watches, and other metal jewelry while working with primary circuits. Exercise caution to avoid shorting power input terminals. Caution: Units with the electrostatic-sensitive (ESS) symbol contain ESS devices. Store these units in an antistatic container when not in use, and anyone handling a unit should observe antistatic precautions. Refer to the Special Precautions pages in the front of the instruction book for detailed handling information. Note: Ensure that all antennas are correctly aligned and waveguide is in good physical condition. Note: Before performing procedures that might in any way affect transmission, it is recommended that the person performing the procedure understand the Rules and Regulations pertaining to the equipment and be correctly authorized to operate the equipment. Issue 01 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA 217 Alarm clearing and maintenance 27.2 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Maintenance philosophy This section provides information and procedures for equipment maintenance down to the Card level. Card repair is not covered in this manual. The use of maintenance procedures in this section may result from failure of a periodic check, an alarm indication, or unacceptable performance. This document addresses only the 9500 MPR maintenance. For information about Maintenance on an MPT directly connected to a 7705 SAR system, see the 7705 SAR documentation. In addition, considering the level of integration between two systems and their joint behavior, maintenance operation must always involve people with knowledge of both the 9500 MPR and the 7705 SAR. 27.3 Personal computer (PC)/laptop If the MSS-1c is in use, connect the RJ45 Interface cable between craft terminal connector on the MSS-1c and the PC. For MPR-e, connect the PC to the FE port of the Ethernet generic device. 27.4 Troubleshooting This section provides guidance on: • Before going to site checklist • Network supervision troubleshooting for MSS-1c • PC troubleshooting • Troubleshooting basics • Relationship between the alarms on MCT and SNMP traps • Troubleshooting with MSS-1c electrical or optical connection • Troubleshooting path problems • Troubleshooting configuration problems • Troubleshooting MSS-1c Ethernet problems • Troubleshooting MSS-1c TMN problems 218 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual 27.4.1 Alarm clearing and maintenance Before going to site checklist Where possible, before going to site obtain the following information: • Does the fault require immediate attention? • Determine who is the best-placed person to attend the fault. • Confirm the nature and severity of the reported fault, its location, MPT type, frequency band, high/low end MPT, capacity modulation and configuration (non protected, protected, diversity). Ask: − Is just one link affected, or a number of links in the same geographical area? − Is the path down completely or is traffic passing but with a BER alarm? − Could the fault be in the equipment connected to MPT, rather than in MPT? Are there alarms on other, connected equipment? − Is it a hard or intermittent fault? − Do alarms confirm which end of an alarmed link is faulty? • Could the weather (rain, ice, high wind, temperature) be a factor in the reported fault? Note: If the fault suggests a rain fade or other weather related fade condition and it matches the prevailing weather conditions, do not take any action until the weather abates. • Does link history suggest any fault trends? − Does the fault history for the link indicate a likely cause? − Is the link newly installed? − Has there been any recent work done on the link? • Ensure that you have with you: − Appropriate spares. Where an equipment failure is suspected, these should include replacement of the MSS-1c (if present) and MPT. If an MPT is suspected then local/national climbing safety requirements must be adhered to. − A laptop PC loaded with craft terminal, and an Ethernet cable. If an Ethernet connection is to be used, you need the IP address and also the addresses for any remote sites to be accessed. − If login security has been enabled, you need the password for the local and also any remote sites to be accessed. − Any special test equipment that may be needed, such as a BER tester. − Toolkit. − Keys for access to the site. Issue 01 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA 219 Alarm clearing and maintenance MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Warning: Before any I&C (Installation & Commissioning) for a new link or during Maintenance with an ODU repaired by Nokia, if the MPT-MC/HC/XP is received with the current release software and this is not the correct SW version used on the network, the ODU must be downgraded to the correct SW Release using MCT / TCO ≥ R5.0.0. The correct MCT/TCO must be first uploaded from OLCS server to a laptop, where the downgrade can be performed. 27.4.2 Network supervision troubleshooting for MSS-1c If the following message error is raised when you start the supervision: Figure 168 Message error 1. Check that you have added a static route (see Static route configuration). 2. Check the MSS-1c variant you are using. In case of MSS-1c 16PDH, the root cause could be the MPT SW which is not at the minimum version required. It is mandatory to up-grade the MPT SW. Two solutions can be used: a. Up-grade of MPT SW using an MSS-1c tool: In that case, the MSS-1c 16PDH is temporary replaced by a MSS-1c (3DB18613AA) used as a tool during the time of the SW up-grade. The procedure is as follows: 1. Replace the MSS-1c 16PDH by the MSS-1c 2. Up-grade the MPT SW to MPR version 3. Come back to the MSS-1c 16PDH b. Up-grade of MPT SW through the MPT traffic port: The procedure consists to connect directly the PC on the MPT electrical traffic port as described in the MPR-e User Manual. 220 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Alarm clearing and maintenance The PC must have a GbE interface and capability to tag VLAN. Depending on the MPT type and the connection between MSS-1c 16PDH and MPT (electrical or optical), additional materials may be needed as follows: 1. MPT-MC: - a Power Injector box (3CC50129AA) must be used as a tool to merge the data from the PC and the DC. This composite signal is sent to the MPT-MC - a RJ45/RJ45 cable to connect the PC to the Power injector box 2. MPT-HC/HC-HQAM: - a Power Injector box (3CC50129AA) or MPT Extended Power Unit (3CC50174AA) must be used as a tool to merge the data from the PC and the DC. This composite signal is sent to the MPT--HC v2/HCHQAM - a RJ45/RJ45 cable to connect the PC to the Power injector box 3. MPT-XP/XP-HQAM: - an MPT Extended Power Unit (3CC50174AA) must be used as a tool to merge the data from the PC and the DC. This composite signal is sent to the MPT-XP/XP-HQAM - a RJ45/RJ45 cable to connect the PC to the MPT Extended Power Unit 27.4.3 PC troubleshooting If the NE is not displayed in the NEtO screen, MCT has to be launched directly through MctStarter.jar located under the path created by the operator during the local copy and under \\WebEML MPR TCO Rx.y\9500MCT_V0X.0X.XX\MctStarter.jar 27.4.4 Troubleshooting basics This section provides general guidance on troubleshooting. Issue 01 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA 221 Alarm clearing and maintenance 27.4.4.1 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Check MSS-1c front-panel LED indications These provide summary alarm indications, which can help narrow down the location and type of failure. 27.4.4.2 Check the basics first • For example, if multiple alarms are present, and these include power supply voltage or hardware alarms, always check their cause before looking at resultant down-stream path failure or path warning (signal) alarms. • Similarly, if a path-related failure is indicated (no hardware or software alarms), investigate the path. Go to the craft terminal History screen (15 minute view) to check supporting data, such as low RSL and incidence of intermittent pre-failure BER alarms, which if present are evidence of a path-related failure. 222 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual 27.4.4.3 Alarm clearing and maintenance Check if symptoms match the alarm. Alarms reflect the alarm state, but in exceptional circumstances an alarm may be raised because of a failure to communicate correctly with the alarm source, or a failure in alarm management processing. Always check to see if symptoms match the alarm, using LED indications and the craft terminal. 27.4.4.4 Check if recent work may be a cause. Recent work at the site may be a cause or contributing factor. Check for a configuration change, software upgrade, power recycling (reboot), or other site work: • Many hardware alarms are only initiated as a loss-of-communications alarm during a reboot, software upgrade, or reconfiguration. By not being able to communicate with the MSS-1c, their settings cannot be loaded. The fault may be at the hardware device (most likely), or communications to it. 27.4.4.5 MSS before an ODU If there is doubt about whether a fault is in the MSS or ODU, always replace the MSS first; it is quicker and easier.

Generally, if you are experiencing only a one-way problem, it is not a path problem. Note: A path extends from the MPT antenna port to MPT antenna port. • Normally a path problem is signaled by a reduced RSL, and depending on its severity, a high BER. • Only in worst case situations, such as an antenna knocked out of alignment, will a path fail completely, and stay that way. • For weather-related problems, such as rain or ducting, the path problem will disappear as the weather returns to normal. 27.4.7.1 Path problems on a commissioned link A path problem on an existing link, one that has been operating satisfactorily may be caused by one of the following: • Weather-related path degradation If BER alarms are fleeting/not permanent and RSL returns to its normal, commissioned level after the alarm is cleared, rain, diffraction, or multipath fading is indicated. Rain fade is the likely cause of fade for links 13 GHz and higher. Diffraction and multipath/ducting for links 11 GHz and lower. If these alarms are persistent, there could be a problem with the link design or original installation. Issue 01 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA 239 Alarm clearing and maintenance MPT Craft Terminal User Manual • Changed antenna alignment or antenna feed problem If RSLs do not return to commissioned levels after a period of exceptionally strong winds, suspect antenna alignment. Also, check the antenna for physical damage, such as may occur with ice-fall. For a remote-mounted MPT, check its antenna feeder. • New path obstruction Where all other parameters check as normal, and the path has potential for it to be obstructed by construction works, view/survey the path for possible new obstructions. • Interference from other signal sources Interference usually affects traffic in just one direction. Unlike other path problems, RSL is not affected. If suspected, check for new link installations at, or in the same geographical area, as the affected site. Ultimately, a spectrum analyzer may have to be used to confirm interference, which is not an easy task given the need to connect directly to the antenna port, after removing the MPT. 27.4.7.2 Path problems on a new link For a new link, potential problems can extend to also include: • Incorrect antenna alignment One or both antennas incorrectly aligned. Refer to the Antenna alignment procedure in the 9500 MPR Hardware Installation and Replacement Manual. • Mismatching antenna polarizations Given a typical polarization discrimination of 30 dB, for most links it is not possible to capture a signal to begin the antenna alignment process. • Incorrect path calculations If the RSLs are too low or too high, antenna alignment is correct, and Tx power settings are correct, check the path calculations used to determine the link performance. A good calculation match is ± 2 dB. Disagreements in excess of 3 dB should be investigated. • Reflections Reflection (path cancellation) problems may not have been picked up at the path planning stage, particularly if the survey was a simple line-of-sight. If suspected, resurvey the path. 240 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual 27.4.8 Alarm clearing and maintenance Troubleshooting configuration problems Configuration problems should only occur during the setup of a new link, or reconfiguration of an existing link. The more common problems may be broadly categorized as: • Incorrect circuit connections No alarms are activated for incorrect circuit connections. An incorrect assignment means the expected end-to-end circuit connectivity will not happen. Re-check circuit assignments for all nodes carrying the lost circuit(s). Take extra care when configuring ring circuits. • Incorrect ID naming and commissioning All traffic-carrying circuits must have a unique flow ID for the cross-connect capability to operate. • Incorrect/incompatible trib settings Trib line interface settings incorrect, or line levels incompatible. While no alarm activates for an incorrect setting, its effect may result in line levels being too low (LOS alarm), or too high, resulting in a high BER. 27.4.9 Troubleshooting MSS-1c Ethernet problems This section gives general guidance on troubleshooting problems related to the four Ethernet ports on the MSS-1c. The most common Ethernet problems are network and connectivity related and therefore always check the following first: • for User and NMS ports, verify link partner capability, provisioning, and connection • for Radio ports, verify the cabling between MPT and MSS-1c In order for the green Link LED to light: • Cable must be connected to Ethernet port • Ethernet port must be enabled (provisioned Enabled). Applicable for User and NMS ports • Speed and mode must be provisioned the same as the link partner. The yellow LED opposite the green on the connector indicates activity only. The flashing yellow LED is not an indicator of signal type or quality. Issue 01 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA 241 Alarm clearing and maintenance 27.4.10 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Troubleshooting MSS-1c TMN problems This section gives general guidance on troubleshooting TMN problems related to NMS Ethernet ports 1 and 2 on the MSS-1c. The most common TMN problems are network related and first alert is normally observed by incorrect operation at the SNMP master. Always check the following first: • Verify master is correctly registered in NE to receive traps. • Verify SNMP version matches system requirements • Verify correct community string and privileges • Verify correct network routing. Refer to Table 17 for detail TMN network troubleshooting. Table 17 TMN network troubleshooting for MSS-1c Problem Possible Cause Possible Solution Unusually slow communication in radio network 1. Normal network management traffic is saturating the communications channel. 1. There may be too many radios being managed within a single region. Split the radio network management into different regions and backhaul the traffic for each region through separate channels. 2. Polling radios for PM data or missed alarms too rapidly 2. Poll the radios more slowly. 3. Multiple remote software downloads in process 3. Download to fewer radios at a time. 4. IP traffic other than network management traffic being routed through radio network 4. Configure external routers to allow only network management related traffic through the Management network of the radios. Dynamic route updates (OSPF) may attempt to reroute high speed traffic through the TMN network if a high speed ink fails. To perform control operations, the Manager must be registered as a craft device. Register the Manager as a craft device. Manager registration type can be changed as needed to type ‘ct’ to allow control operation and then be changed back to ‘nml’ for normal operation. Unable to operate controls using SNMP 242 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual Alarm clearing and maintenance Table 17 TMN network troubleshooting for MSS-1c (Continued) Problem Possible Cause Possible Solution Can Read SNMP objects but cannot Write to SNMP objects 1. Incorrect community string 1. Use the correct community string. 2. If the TMN Interface is configured for SNMPv2, the write community string is probably wrong. 2. Use the correct write community string. No traps being received from NE 1. Manager not registered in NE to receive traps 1. Register Manager with NE. 2. Communication failure in network 2. Check network connectivity. Check redundant network paths and routing. Traceroute (tracert) is useful for locating path or routing faults. Unable to communicate with the NE through the radio network (unable to ‘ping’ the NE). Possible communication path failure or routing failure within the radio network. Use traceroute (tracert) to help locate for communication path or routing problems. Can ‘ping’ the TMN Interface but cannot communicate with the NE using SNMP, or can only see a few SNMP objects in the NE. If using SNMPv2, using the wrong community string. Verify community string or username/passphrase. Can “ping” the TMN interface, but cannot open MCT Another MCT session is already open on another machine Close the other MCT session 27.5 Equipment removal and replacement Warning: Never install, change or remove an unit without first connecting to the shelf with an ESD grounding cable. Failure to do so may cause ESD damage to the cards. 27.5.1 MSS-1c removal and replacement Turn off the power supply, disconnect all the cables and connect them to the spare MSS-1c and turn on the power supply.

If an MSS-1c is in use, perform the following: 1. Reconfigure the MPT by using the WebEML (menu Commissioning > Configuration) or if a backup file is available, restore the MPT configuration using the WebEML (menu Commissioning > Configuration > Backup/Restore). 2. Connect the WebEML to the CT port of MSS-1c and configure the PC to “Get automatically an IP address” (because the NE is configured as DHCP Server with default IP address 192.168.30.1 and subnet mask 255.255.255.252). Warning: The MPT-HC can be used to replace a MPT HC-HQAM only if the MPT HC-HQAM is working in MPT-HC Compatibility mode (see Radio configuration). Note: The MPT-HC V2 can also be used to replace the MPT-HC V1. The 23 GHz MPT-HC V2 is a Tx High Power version vs. MPT-HC V1. Take in account it when MPT-HC V2 is used as spare of MPT-HC V1. 27.5.4.1 Replacement of an MPT-HC/HC-HQAM/XP/XP-HQAM in XPIC configuration To replace an MPT-HC/HC-HQAM/XP/XP-HQAM in XPIC configuration it is mandatory to follow the following procedure: 1. Power off the MPT-HC/HC-HQAM/XP/XP-HQAM Issue 01 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA 245 Alarm clearing and maintenance MPT Craft Terminal User Manual 2. Disconnect the XPIC cable 3. Disconnect the RPS cable 4. Uninstall the failed MPT-HC/HC-HQAM/XP/XP-HQAM 5. Install the spare MPT-HC/HC-HQAM/XP/XP-HQAM 6. Connect the RPS cable 7. Connect the XPIC cable 8. Power on the MPT-HC/HC-HQAM/XP/XP-HQAM 27.5.5 MPT-MC removal and replacement Disconnect the cables and connect them to the spare MPT-MC. If an MSS-1c is in use, perform the following: 1. Reconfigure the MPT by using the WebEML (Commissioning → Configuration) or if a backup file is available, restore the MPT configuration using the WebEML (menu Commissioning → Configuration →Backup/Restore). 2. Connect the WebEML to the CT port of MSS-1c and configure the PC to “Get automatically an IP address” (because the NE is configured as DHCP Server with default IP address 192.168.30.1 and subnet mask 255.255.255.252). 246 3DB 19289 ADAA TQZZA Issue 01 MPT Craft Terminal User Manual 27.6 Alarm clearing and maintenance Cleaning Warning: Do not use acid, alcohol, or brushes to clean the equipment because damage to the silk-screen labeling and antistatic coating can result.
