3. Check whether the power supply of the cabinet is normal.
4. Replace the original service board with a new service board and then check whether the new service board can start normally.

 NOTICE:

To facilitate fault report, save the results of the following steps.

When you remove and insert a service board, antistatic measures must be taken.

Procedure

1. Run the display board frameid/slotid command to query the name of the faulty board, check the type of the actual board inserted in the subrack, and check whether their types are the same.
   • If their types are the same, go to 4.
   • If their types are different, proceed to 2.
2. If it is confirmed that system configurations are correct, insert a board of the correct type into the slot and then proceed to the next step. If it is confirmed that system configurations are incorrect, run the board delete command to delete the original configurations, after the system displays a message indicating that the board is auto discovered, run the board confirm command to confirm the board and then proceed to the next step.
3. Wait five minutes and then check whether the fault is rectified.
   • If the fault is rectified, go to 11.
   • If the fault persists, proceed to 4.
4. Check whether the service board is firmly inserted.
   • If the service board is firmly inserted, go to 6.
   • If the service board is not firmly inserted, remove and insert the service board, and ensure that the service board is firmly inserted. Then, proceed to 5.
5. Check whether the fault is rectified.
   • If the fault is rectified, go to 11.
   • If the fault persists, proceed to 6.
6. Check whether the power supply of the cabinet is normal.
   • If the power supply of the cabinet is normal, go to 8.
   • If the power supply of the cabinet is abnormal, check the device supplying power and enable this device to supply power in the normal state. Then, proceed to 7.
7. Check whether the fault is rectified.
   • If the fault is rectified, go to 11.
   • If the fault persists, proceed to 8.
8. Replace the original service board, and then check whether the new service board can start normally.
   • If the new service board can start normally, it indicates that service board is faulty. In this case, replace the original service board with a new one. Then, go to 11.

What Are The Differences in the Ring Check Function Between Earlier-Version and Later-Version MA5600T?

• The processing mechanism of the ring check function of an earlier-version MA5600T has the following disadvantages:
  • After a loop is detected, Huawei MA5600T deactivates the ONT. In this way, live-network configurations are modified.
  • After Huawei ONT like HG8546M is deactivated, you need to manually activate the ONT (that is, re-configure services). This increases the workload.
• The processing mechanism of the ring check function of MA5600T V800R009 (or later versions) is optimized in terms of the following aspects:
  • After a loop is detected, the MA5600T makes the ONT go offline. In this way, live-network configurations are not modified but the ONT is stopped from transmitting services.
  • The MA5600T automatically makes the offline ONT go online after a period of time elapses. Note that the length of this period of time is configurable.
  • An easy-to-use query function is provided. With this function, you can query all ONTs that go offline because of loops.
• If you need to query all ONT deactivation records, run the display event history eventid command to query the information about events 0x2910000d and 0x29100026.

Event 0x2910000d indicates the PON port status; event 0x29100026 indicates the non-PON port status.

What is the System Architecture of Huawei MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T?

Huawei MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T uses the system architecture containing three modules: M1, M2, and M3.

• The M1 service port module provides various service access ports, such as PON, P2P, POTS, and Huawei xDSL service ports.
• The M2 core processing module implements CPU processing, Ethernet switching, and service processing.
• The M3 uplink port module transmits service flows upstream to network-side devices.

In the preceding figure:

• The M1 service port module and M3 uplink port module connect to different boards. For details of working principles of each module, see board description in the Hardware Description.
• For details of service flow directions in the M1 service port module, see board working principles in the Hardware Description.
• The service flows processed by the M2 core processing module are classified into two types: One type of service flows are transmitted upstream after they are processed by the Ethernet switching module and the M3 uplink port module; the other type of service flows are transmitted upstream after they are processed by the Ethernet switching module, service processing module, and then Ethernet switching module again.

How to Display IGMP Messages on Huawei MA5600T

When the multicast duplication point is on Huawei MA5600T, how to display the IGMP messages exchanged between the MA5600T and the upper-layer device and between the MA5600T and IGMP users?

EPBA board:

• To display the messages, do as follows:

  huawei#terminal debugging
  % Current terminal debugging is on
  huawei#terminal monitor
  % Current terminal monitor is on
  huawei(config)#debugging igmp all
  

• To cancel the function of displaying the messages, do as follows:

  huawei#undo terminal debugging
  huawei#undo terminal monitor
  huawei#undo debugging igmp

Boards other than the EPBA board:

• The messages can be displayed only based on the index of the IGMP service port. To display the messages, do as follows:

  huawei#terminal debugging
  % Current terminal debugging is on
  huawei#terminal monitor
  % Current terminal monitor is on
  huawei(config)#debugging igmp service-port 68
  

• To cancel the function of displaying the messages, do as follows:

  huawei#undo terminal debugging
  huawei#undo terminal monitor
  huawei#undo debugging igmp

• The preceding methods apply to V800R006C02 and V800R008.
• After the function of displaying IGMP messages is enabled, the device performance may be affected. Therefore, disable this function when it is not used.

How to Search Out the Resource License Fast in a PO?

Q:
Both the resource license for the U2000 software and the NE licenses for hardware devices are contained in a purchase order (PO). The numerous NE licenses in the PO make it difficult to search out the resource license fast.

Alarm Information

None

Handling Process

    A:
In the advanced search window of the FNO system, you can enter multiple search criteria, such as the PO, product name, product version and site information. In this manner, the required license can be located accurately.
Note:
NE licenses are licenses for network hardware devices. Currently, hardware devices can control functions by using NE licenses without executing license policies. Therefore, hardware devices need not use license files. The resource license is a license for the U2000 software used to manage specific NE or port resources on the U2000. Usually, the devices at a site share a PO. If capacity expansion is performed at the site, the NE licenses and the resource license that is used to manage those devices will be combined in one PO. As a result, a PO in the FNO system contains numerous NE licenses and one resource license for managing those devices.

Step 1  At the FNO website, click the button highlighted by the red oval as shown in Figure 1-1(check the attachment Figure 1-1 Manage entitlements).
Step 2  In the dialog box that is displayed, enter multiple search criteria as shown in Figure 1-2(check the attachment Figure 1-2 advanced search).

Ethernet configuration missing in NMS, already configured at both site. However, when do testing end to end, no faulty alarm at test gear. The services still exist, if not, test gear will show faulty alarm. 

Alarm Information

No Alarm.

Handling Process

1, Current version U2000 V1R3C00SPC100 is upgrading to V1R5C00SPC600 as recommended by R&D.
2, After NMS restart, all Ethernet configurations appear normally.

Root Cause

1, Configuration not seen at NMS, but when test it normal, mean at NE side services were normal.
2, Services only cannot see at NMS side, mean problem probably related to NMS.
3, NE can login and communicate normally, means NMS and NE can communicate normally.
4, Collect data and send to R&D.
5, Feedback from R&D, probably the current NMS version have some bug which cannot support some features of NE or the version of NE and NMS may not compatible. R&D recommended version V1R5C00SPC600 to upgrade.

Suggestions

1, for new version of NE, always uses the latest NMS version to avoid some operations and monitoring failure.

2, V1R5C00SPC600 version is the latest recommended by R&D to use.
