Configuring SDH

SDH is a standard that defines optical signals as well as a synchronous frame structure for multiplexed digital

traffic. It is is used in Europe by the International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication

Standardization Sector (ITU-T). The SDH equipment is used everywhere except North America. The IM

supports the entire SDH hierarchy (except VC-2/C-2).

Overview of SDH

SDH was defined by European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and is now being controlled

by the ITU-T standards body. SDH standard is prevalently used everywhere outside North America and Japan.

The following are true for SDH:

with SONET

•One of the two options for the User-Network Interface (UNI) (the customer connection) and formally

the U reference point interface for support of BISDN

Basic SDH Signal

The basic format of an SDH signal allows it to carry many different services in its VC because SDH signal

is bandwidth-flexible. This capability allows the transmission of high-speed packet-switched services, ATM,

contribution video, and distribution video. However, SDH still permits transport and networking at the 2

Mbit/s, 34 Mbit/s, and 140 Mbit/s levels, accommodating the existing digital hierarchy signals. In addition,

SDH supports the transport of signals based on the 1.5 Mbit/s hierarchy.

SDH Hierarchy

SDH Frame Structure

The STM-1 frame is the basic transmission format for SDH. The frame lasts for 125 microseconds, therefore,

there are 8000 frames per second. The STM-1 frame consists of overhead plus a Virtual Container (VC)

capacity.

The SDH frame consists of 270 columns. The first nine columns of each frame make up the Section Overhead,

and the last 261 columns make up the VC capacity. The VC plus the pointers (H1, H2, H3 bytes) are called

the Administrative Unit (AU). Carried within the VC capacity, which has its own frame structure of nine rows

and 261 columns, is the Path Overhead and the Container. The first column is for Path Overhead; it is followed

by the payload container, which can itself carry other containers. VCs can have any phase alignment within

the Administrative Unit, and this alignment is indicated by the Pointer in row four. Within the Section Overhead,

the first three rows are used for the Regenerator Section Overhead, and the last five rows are used for the

Multiplex Section Overhead. The STM frame is transmitted in a byte-serial fashion, row-by-row, and is

scrambled immediately prior to transmission to ensure adequate clock timing content for downstream

regenerators.

Figure 2: STM1 Section Overhead

SDH supports a concept called VC. Through the use of pointers and offset values, VCs can be carried in the

SDH payload as independent data packages. VCs are used to transport lower-speed tributary signals. Note

that it can start (indicated by the J1 path overhead byte) at any point within the STM-1 frame. The start location

of the J1 byte is indicated by the pointer byte values. VCs can also be concatenated to provide more capacity

in a flexible fashion.

CEM Overview

Circuit Emulation (CEM) is a way to carry TDM circuits over packet switched network. CEM embeds the

TDM circuits into packets, encapsulates them into an appropriate header, and then sends that through Packet

Switched Network. The receiver side of CEM restores the TDM circuits from packets.

Modes of CEM

•Structure Agnostic TDM over Packet (SAToP) (RFC 4553) –SAToP mode is used to encapsulate

T1/E1 or T3/E3 unstructured (unchannelized) services over packet switched networks. In SAToP mode,

the bytes are sent out as they arrive on the TDM line. Bytes do not have to be aligned with any framing.

In this mode, the interface is considered as a continuous framed bit stream. The packetization of the

stream is done according to IETF RFC 4553. All signaling is carried transparently as a part of a bit

stream.

•Circuit Emulation Service over Packet (CEP) (RFC 4842) - CEP mode is used to encapsulate SDH

payload envelopes (SPEs) like VC11, VC12, VC4, or VC4-Nc over PSN. In this mode, the bytes from

the corresponding SPE are sent out as they arrive on the TDM line. The interface is considered as a

continuous framed bit stream. The packetization of the stream is done according to IETF RFC 4842.

SDH Multiplexing

The terms and definitions of SDH multiplexing principles are:

•Mapping –A process used when tributaries are adapted into VCs by adding justification bits and Path

Overhead (POH) information.

•Aligning –This process takes place when a pointer is included in a Tributary Unit (TU) or an

Administrative Unit (AU), to allow the first byte of the VC to be located.

•Multiplexing –This process is used when multiple lower-order path layer signals are adapted into a

higher-order path signal, or when the higher-order path signals are adapted into a Multiplex Section.

•Stuffing –As the tributary signals are multiplexed and aligned, some spare capacity is designed into

the SDH frame to provide enough space for all the various tributary rates. Therefore, at certain points

in the multiplexing hierarchy, this space capacity is filled with “fixed stuffing”bits that carry no

information, but are required to fill up the particular frame.

SDH Multiplexing

Modes of SDH

A Synchronous Transport Module (STM) signal is the Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) equivalent of

the SONET STS. In this document, STM term refers to both path widths and optical line rates. The paths

within an STM signals are called administrative units (AUs).

An AU is the information structure that provides adaptation between the higher-order path layer and the

multiplex section layer. It consists of an information payload (the higher-order VC) and an AU pointer, which

indicates the offset of the payload frame start relative to the multiplex section frame start.

The AU-3 pointer is composed of 3 bytes; the AU-4 pointer is composed of 9 bytes.

The payload of the STM-1 frame consists of one AU-4 unit or three AU-3 units.

Augment Mapping

An administrative unit group (AUG) consists of one or more administrative units occupying fixed, defined

positions in an STM payload. Augment mapping is supported at STM1 level.The following types of augment

mapping are supported:

•Augment Mapping AU-4

This is the default augment mapping mode.Note

•Augment Mapping AU-3

•Mixed (AU-3 and AU-4) Augment Mapping

The supported modes of SDH are:

•AU-4-16c (VC4-16c)

•AU-4-4c (VC4-4c)

•AU-4 (VC4)

•AU-4 —TUG-3 —VC-3 —DS3

Configuring AUG Mapping

This section describes the configuration of Administration Units Group (AUG) mapping.

Configuring AU-3 or AU-4 Mapping

To configure AU-3 or AU-4 mapping:

configure terminal

aug mapping [au-3 |au-4]

end

The aug mapping command is available only when SDH framing is configured.Note

The AUG mapping mode is AU-4 by default. AUG mapping is supported at STM-1 level.Note

Configuring Mixed AU-3 and AU-4 Mapping

To configure mixed AU-3 and AU-4 mapping:

configure terminal

aug mapping [au-3 |au-4]stm [1-1]stm1 number [1-4]

end

Use the following command to change the AUG mapping of a particular STM-1 to AU-3:

aug mapping au-3 stm [1-16]path number 1-16

After configuring this command for STM-4 the AUG mapping of path 2, 3, and 4 is AU-4 and for path 1

it is AU-3.

Note

Verifying AUG Mapping Configuration

Use show running-configuration command to verify the AUG mapping configuration.
