Organization

The System Volume is organized as follows:

Features

Description

GR Overview

Graceful Restart ensures the continuity of packet forwarding when a routing protocol restarts.

l Basic concepts in GR

l GR communication procedure

l GR mechanism for several commonly used protocols

VRRP

Deploying VRRP on multicast and broadcast LANs such as Ethernet, you can ensure that the system can still provide highly reliable default links without changing configurations when a device fails and prevent network interruption due to a single link failure.

l VRRP configuration for IPv4

l VRRP configuration for IPv6

HA

High Availability (HA) feature can be used to achieve a higher degree of system availability.

l Introduction to HA

l HA configuration

Device Management

Through the device management function, you can view the current working state of a device, configure running parameters, and perform daily device maintenance and management.

l Device management configuration

NQA

Network Quality Analyzer (NQA) analyzes network performance, services and service quality through sending test packets, and provides you with network performance and service quality parameters.

l NQA server configuration

l Enabling the NQA client

l NQA test group configuration

l Collaboration function configuration

l Scheduling of NQA test group

NTP

Network Time Protocol (NTP) synchronizes timekeeping among distributed time servers and clients.

l NTP operation mode configuration

l Configuration of local clock as a reference source

l NTP optional parameters configuration

l Access-control rights configuration

l NTP authentication configuration

RMON

Remote Monitoring (RMON) provides an efficient means of monitoring subnets and allows SNMP to monitor remote network devices in a more proactive and effective way. It reduces traffic between network management station (NMS) and agent, facilitating large network management.

l RMON configuration

SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) offers a framework to monitor network devices through TCP/IP protocol suite. It provides a set of basic operations in monitoring and maintaining the Internet.

l SNMP basic functions configuration

l Trap configuration

File System Management

A major function of the file system is to manage storage devices.

l File system management configuration

l FTP configuration

l TFTP configuration

System Maintaining and Debugging

For the majority of protocols and features supported, the system provides corresponding debugging information to help users diagnose errors.

l Introduction to system maintaining and debugging

l System maintaining and debugging operations

l System maintaining examples

Basic System Configuration

l Basic system configuration

Information Center

Acting as the system information hub, information center classifies and manages system information.

l Information center configuration

User Interface

User interface view is a feature that allows you to manage asynchronous serial interfaces that work in flow mode. By operating under user interface view, you can centralize the management of various configurations.

l Asynchronous serial interface attributes configuration

l Terminal attributes configuration

l Modem attributes configuration

l Auto-execute command configuration

l User privilege level configuration

l Configuration of access restriction on VTY user interfaces

l Configuration of authentication mode at login

MAC Address Table Management

Each entry in the MAC address table indicates the MAC address of a connected device, to which interface this device is connected and to which VLAN the interface belongs.

l MAC address table management configuration

Clock Monitoring

Clock monitoring module is responsible for providing highly-precise, highly-reliable SDH (synchronous digital hierarchy) line interface 38.88 MHz clock signals for different LPUs (line processing unit). It implements such functions as input clock source automatic selection, software phase-lock, and real-time monitoring of the clock status of the interface card. The module supports hardware reset of the clock card.

l Configuration of clock monitoring module of the SRPU

l SSM reference source configuration

l Input port of the line clock configuration

Track

The Track module is used to implement collaboration between different modules. The collaboration here involves three parts: the application modules, the Track module, and the detection modules.

l Track overview

l Configuration of collaboration between the track module and the detection modules

l Configuration of collaboration between the track module and the application modules
