How to monitor Huawei DSLAM backup in U2000?

How to monitor Huawei DALSM MA5616 or MA5600T Backup in U2000?

You can check the backups from this path:

1170faecc5cc400c99a37a8073148337

You can also modify the backup policy and select the file type you want for the NE you choose:
2df8cb947fb1449785a93ca46f1e4303



For the backup result, you can check them only in U2000. For the backups failure, you can check the alarms if your U2000 version is R16C60 or higher.

Unfortunately, there is no function implemented yet to allow us to receive the failed backups alarms via email.

Huawei WDM 40G Line Board NS3 configuration instruction

Huawei 40G line board TN54NS3/TN55NS3 board for Huawei OptiX OSN 6800/OptiX OSN 8800 universal platform subrack only supports relay mode. TN56NS3 board for the OptiX OSN 8800 universal platform subrack only supports relay mode.
When the TN56NS3 board is used to receive SDH services, the SDH service license for universal line boards is required.

When the TN56NS3 board is installed in a general OptiX OSN 8800 T64 subrack, the XCT+SXH or XCT+SXM cross-connect boards must be used. When the TN56NS3 board is installed in an enhanced OptiX OSN 8800 T64 subrack, the XCT+SXH, XCT+SXM, or UXCT+USXH cross-connect boards must be used. When the TN56NS3 board is installed in an OptiX OSN 8800 T16 subrack to receive SDH services, the TN16UXCM cross-connect board must be used.

When SDH services are provisioned, the TN56NS3 board can be used only in an independent subrack, but not in a master or slave subrack. When OTN services are provisioned, the TN56NS3 board can be used in an independent subrack, a master subrack, or a slave subrack.

Which Priority Does an Interface Trust?

An interface can be configured to trust DSCP priorities and 802.1p priorities simultaneously,
or trust IP precedences and 802.1p priorities simultaneously. When an interface is configured
to trust DSCP priorities and 802.1p priorities simultaneously, or trust IP precedences and
802.1p priorities simultaneously, the interface:
Trusts DSCP priorities or IP priorities if L3 packets are received.
Trusts 802.1p priorities if L2 packets are received.

The DSCP priority and IP precedence use different bits of the ToS field; therefore, an interface cannot be configured to trust DSCP priorities and IP precedences simultaneously.
Huawei S5720-SI, S5720S-SI, S5720LI, S5720S-LI, S5710-X-LI, S1720GW-E, S1720GWR-E, S1720GW, and S1720GWR do not support the trust ip-precedence command.

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.

Block all DHCP packets to exit an interface S5720S-28X-LI-24S-AC

Issue Description
For some specific scenarios, we need to block DHCP broadcast packets (Discovery, Request) to exit a specific interface.
b43ae64853dc466c83083ba6cc9eb7a5
In this specific scenario, PC1 gets dynamic IP from DHCP server located on LSW2. LSW1 just forwards the discovery and request packets towards LSW2.
The requirement is to block these packets to exit GE0/0/3 on LSW1.
Solution
Solution: configure a traffic policy and apply it in outbound direction on S5720S-28X-LI-24S-AC interface where you want to block the packets (in this case GE0/0/3 of LSW1)
The traffic classifier will use an advanced ACL to match the DHCP traffic, which is UDP traffic for ports 67 and 68.
The traffic behavior will be set to "deny" and, optionally to "statistic enable" to check afterwards if packets are dropped.
Configuration is as bellow:
acl number 3000
rule 5 permit udp destination-port eq bootps
rule 10 permit udp destination-port eq bootpc
#
traffic classifier c1 operator and
if-match acl 3000
#
traffic behavior b1
deny
statistic enable
#
traffic policy p1
classifier c1 behavior b1
#
interface GigabitEthernet0/0/3
port link-type trunk
port trunk allow-pass vlan 2 to 4094
traffic-policy p1 outbound
dhcp snooping enable
