1.0 OVERVIEW

The iConverter®Network Management Module (NMM) is the heart of the iConvertermanagement system.

It features a 32-bit, high performance RISC microprocessor executing a realtime operating system. It

supports the SNMP and Telnet protocols and is capable of controlling up to 19 managed chassis.

The NMM delivers Operations, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) services for carrier-class network

access with comprehensive provisioning and network monitoring. The NMM features IP-based and IP-less

management of iConverter modules within the management domain (modules and chassis connected to the

NMM). IP-less management includes IEEE 802.3ah OAM and Omnitron’s Secure IP-less OAM management

When managing high-density fiber connections in a Central Office or network core, the NMM clusters up

to19chassis into asingle IP address. In thisconfiguration, NMM moduleswithin each chassis areconnected

to each other over a daisy chain connection.

The NMM polls all converters and power supplies within its domain, continuously collecting status and

module information. It reports its collected status via the SNMP protocol to element management

applications, such as Omnitron’s SNMP-based NetOutlook™Management Software

NOTE: It is recommended that the revision of firmware on the NMM be the same or greater than

any other management module installed in the chassis or connected remotely to installed modules.

IMPORTANT

Thismanual provides informationon the installationandconfiguration ofthemodule using thecommand

line interface (serial console). For ongoing network management, Omnitron Systems recommends

NetOutlook, an SNMP-based Network Management Software.

NetOutlook provides an efficient, user-friendly way to configure, monitor and manage devices installed

on a single network or on a series of networks by providing an intuitive graphical display with real-time

status and alarm (trap) information. The user can easily manage iConverter equipment on a large

Enterprise network or Metropolitan Area network (MAN) from a single location without the need of

additional resources.

Release 3.4 supports SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3.

2.0 PORT STRUCTURE

2.1 OVERVIEW

The Network Management Module front panel provides the access to the Management ports. Management

can be accessed through the serial port or the UTPport. The module features a backplane Ethernet port for

connectivity to adjacent modules.

Serial Port

Daisy Chain Port

UTP Management Port

2.1.1 Serial Console Port

The NMM features a Serial RS-232 Console Port (aka Craft Interface) for the initial setup and configuration

described in this manual. The Serial Console Port is accessed through the DB9 female DCE interface.

2.1.2 Daisy Chain Ports (Multi-Chassis)

The NMM provides a pair of redundant ports to daisy chain (cascade) up to 19 chassis providing single IP

address management.

Multi-ChassisConfiguration

To configure a set of chassis for a multi-chassis configuration, the following requirements must be followed:

• Only one NMM per chassis

• No other management modules can be installed in the chassis (i.e. 10/100M, GX/TM, etc.)

• Each NMM must have a unique chassis number (see Section 3.4.1.3)

• Remote OAM must be disabled (see Section 3.4.3.2)

Page 4

The illustration below shows how multi-chassis are managed using Omnitron’s NetOutlook Management

Software. From the chassis view screen, each of the chassis are available.

NetOutlook Chassis View

Multi-chassisconfiguration can alsobemanaged through theserial console port. Fromthe ChassisSelection

section of screen, each of the chassis connected together are available. See Section 4.0 for detailed menu

screens.

2.1.3 UTP Management Port

The NMM features a front-panel 10Mbps Ethernet management port to facilitate SNMP management of

iConvertermodules in a2, 5 or19-Modulechassis. Front-panel (Out-of-Band)managementis accomplished

by attaching a Category 5 UTP or better cable to the Ethernet front-panel management port.

2.1.4 Ethernet Backplane Port

The NMM also features a 10Mbps Ethernet backplane port. The backplane port A allows Ethernet data

connectivitybetweenthe adjacent module inthechassis. The backplane port providesIn-Bandmanagement

connectivity between the NMM and the adjacent module when both have their backplanes enabled.

Management traffic from the adjacent module transverse the backplane to the NMM.

The backplane port can be disabled or enabled via an on-board slide switch. The NMM supports Backplane

Port A only.

The iConverter 19-Module, 5-Module and 2-Module Chassis backplanes provide ethernet data connectivity

between adjacent slots. The A and B backplane ports connect the slots as illustrated.

The backplane data bus supports Out-of-Band Management and In-Band Management configurations.

Out-of-Band Management

Out-of-Band Management is available by directly connecting the Network Management Station (NMS)

to the UTP port on the front of the NMM. This isolates the management traffic from the rest of the

traffic in the chassis.

In-Band Management

In-Band Management is supported by using the chassis backplane to provide connection between the NMM

and an adjacent module. The adjacent module provides access between the NMM and the NMS via the

backplane data bus. In order to provide a secure management connection, a management VLAN must be

configured (see section 3.4.3 on Management VLAN).

3.0 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

3.1 OVERVIEW

The following steps outline the installation and configuration procedures for the NMM. Refer to the

specified sections for detailed instructions.

• Configuring Switches (Section 3.2)

• Installing the Module and Connecting the UTP Cable (Section 3.3)

• Configure the Module via Command Line Interface (Section 3.4)

• Verify Operation (Section 3.5)

When the setup and configuration procedures are completed, the NMM has been configured for operation.

3.2 CONFIGURING SWITCHES

Board Mounted Switches

3.2.1 Ethernet Crossover Switch

The NMM has an on-board switch for the configuration of the device connecting to the front-panel UTP

management port. When connecting to a hub or switch, set the Ethernet Crossover Switch to “Switch”.

When connecting to a workstation, set to “Workstation” (factory default).

3.2.2 Backplane Enable Switch

The NMM provides an on-board switch to configure the module for In-Band or Out-of-Band management.

Whenthe BackplaneEnable Switchis inthe Frontposition (factorydefault),thefront-panel UTPmanagement

port is enabled and the backplane Ethernet port is disabled. This is defined as Out-of-Band management.

When the switch is in the Back position, the front-panel port is disabled and the backplane port is enabled.

This is defined as In-Band management. In this setting, the NMM module can communicate with an

adjacent module via the chassis backplane.

3.3 INSTALLING THE MODULE AND CONNECTING THE UTP CABLE

• Since the NMM only supports backplane portA, it is recommended that the NMM be installed in

Slot 1. Carefully slide the module into an open slot in the chassis. Align the module with the

installation guides and ensure that the module is firmly seated against the backplane. Secure the

module by fastening the front panel thumbscrew (push in and turn clockwise to tighten) to the chassis

front. Verify the “Pwr” LED is ON (indicating the chassis is powered).

• Connect the UTP port via a Category 5 cable or better to a 10BASE-T Ethernet device (Management

Station).

3.4 CONFIGURE THE MODULE VIA COMMAND LINE INTERFACE

To configure, attach the NMM to a DB-9 serial (RS-232) equipped computer with terminal emulation

software such as HyperTerminal. Using a standard serial cable, connect the serial port of the PC and the

Serial Console Port of the NMM. This is a standard asynchronous DCE serial interface. The pin-outs are

illustrated below.
