1 Product Positioning

Trends and Challenges


With the rapid development of 5G and the advent of the cloud era, all-new
business models are continuously emerging, and enterprises have begun to move
towards cloudification and digitalization. As an enabler of digital and cloud
transformation in various industries, the telecom industry faces many new
opportunities and challenges presented by massive connections, all-cloud, and
intelligence of everything.

● Increasingly complex networks: A large number of sites need to be built or


reconstructed on 5G networks, and 5G will double to triple base station
density with comparison to 4G. Complex cross-domain and cross-network
service scenarios lead to high planning and deployment costs.
● High O&M costs: Site visit costs remain stubbornly high. Analysis and
decision-making rely on manual efforts and other tools, which are not only
costly but also error-prone.
● Difficulty in business monetization: Differentiated products and service
capabilities are insufficient for the cloudification of millions of enterprises,
and SLAs cannot be monetized. In addition, service provisioning takes too
long due to a low level of automation.

To cope with these challenges, carriers must fundamentally change the way they
operate networks and solve network O&M issues through architectural innovation
rather than just tinkering with the traditional architecture.

Industry Direction
At the beginning of 2020, Huawei released ADN Solution White Paper. The ADN
solution aims to research the impact of AI technologies on future network
architectures, O&M modes, and business models by integrating multiple intelligent
technologies, such as SDN, NFV, cloud, big data, AI, and knowledge graph. It
solves structural TCO problems on telecom networks and drives the intelligent
upgrade of the telecom industry through architectural innovation. It enables
Huawei to proactively participate in and promote the development of intelligent
society, and share the dividends of service innovations in intelligent society. This
will revitalize the telecom industry, attract more talent, and promote healthy and
sustainable development of the industry.

iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 1 Product Positioning

ADN consists of three layers: smart devices, management and control platform,
and cloud-based applications. ADN transforms the existing network architecture in
the following aspects:
● Replaces inefficient repetitive work with automated processes to cope with
the heavy O&M pressure caused by massive connections and large network
scale, greatly shortening the network construction and service provisioning
time.
● Shifts from complaint-driven O&M to proactive O&M (proactively identifying
and resolving problems and then notifying customers), and achieves
predictive O&M through in-depth analysis of massive data.
● Explores the advantages of AI machine learning and massive data to provide
assistance or even make decisions under human supervision, significantly
improving response speed, resource efficiency, and energy efficiency for
network services.
● Shares data throughout network planning, construction, maintenance, and
optimization to achieve closed-loop autonomy.
IP networks have evolved from manually executing command lines to an SDN
+Automation era, and then an ADN <Autonomous> era.

Product Positioning
In the three-layer ADN architecture, iMaster NCE-IP is located at the management
and control platform layer. It uses network as a service (NaaS) interfaces to
intelligently translate upper-layer services and application intents into network
behaviors. The compliance with 70+ standard protocols enables it to dynamically
detect IP network status and implement intent-driven automation.

Product Description (x86,enterprise) 2 Product Features

2 Product Features

NCE-IP leverages the intelligent cloud-map algorithm to associate network


resources, services, and status data and build a complete digital map of the IP
network. It integrates network data collection, network awareness, network
decision-making, and network control to help enterprises transform their IP
network O&M.
● Automation: SR/SRv6 control-plane capabilities are integrated to
automatically discover network topologies and optimize paths.
● Intelligence: Telemetry and IFIT are used to collect network data in real time.
Then through intelligent data analysis, proactive O&M becomes a reality.
● Open programmability: YANG models are used to implement the intent-
driven APIs needed for cloud-network convergence. The workflow engine
enables onsite programming.

2.4 Energy View

2.1 Network Digital Map


Network Digital Map in iMaster NCE-IP is an innovative solution that manages the
physical network world through a digital world. It operates similar to a
transportation navigation map and is capable of multidimensional visualization
and path navigation from networks to applications.
Network Digital Map possesses the following five features:
● Multidimensional visualization: Network Digital Map provides views —
physical, slicing, and network. Interconnected through standard protocols such
as TWAMP, BGP-LS, and telemetry, Network Digital Map collects link protocol
status, delay, packet loss, bandwidth utilization, and more information in real
time in order to draw multidimensional views including real-time delay,
bandwidth utilization, and packet loss views. The big data engine processes
massive data in seconds, including multidimensional indicators (such as real-
time delay, bandwidth, and packet loss) of 100,000 links on 30,000 NEs, truly

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 4


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 2 Product Features

achieving "one map for the entire network". Network-wide status changes,
originally invisible, can now be perceived in milliseconds, helping customers
identify network problems like service detours and accurately plan network
paths.
● Navigation-like path computation: Network Digital Map is integrated with GIS
so that devices can be accurately located based on GIS information. It also
supports path precomputation and multiple path selection policies, such as
bandwidth balancing and minimum delay. When automatically planning
network paths for services, it computes the optimal paths that best match
customers' service intents.
● Differentiated path bearer: The adoption of the self-developed cloud-map
algorithm enables Network Digital Map to compute paths based on
combinations of 20+ factors, including bandwidth, delay, traffic, and
availability. All the factors can be combined flexibly to compute the optimal
paths according to service intents. This also helps carriers with refined
classification of services and opens up more possibilities for provisioning
diversified network products.
● Automatic traffic scheduling: Network Digital Map monitors network quality
indicators, including delay, packet loss, and bandwidth utilization, and detects
network congestion and delay/packet loss deterioration in real time. Based on
this information, paths are automatically adjusted — which takes mere
minutes — to provide continuous service SLA assurance.
● Management of millions of tunnels: Network Digital Map supports millions of
tunnels and takes mere minutes to compute paths network-wide, even
meeting future requirements of large-scale network management. E2E
network management is truly achieved through just one map.

2.2 Network Open Programmability Platform (AOC)


Service-oriented network operation is one of the goals pursued by carriers and
large enterprises during network evolution. It involves full-lifecycle management
of network services, spanning design, provisioning, adjustment, and O&M. iMaster
NCE-IP provides flexible model-driven full-lifecycle management of network
services, supports drag-and-drop service design, and opens service models for
flexible extension of custom parameters, shortening the service rollout time to
weeks. In terms of service provisioning, the automation engine of NCE-IP supports
atomic service orchestration in various single-domain and cross-domain scenarios,
one-click service provisioning in minutes, and bandwidth on demand (BoD) and
bandwidth calendaring (BC) capabilities. Moreover, NCE-IP abstracts services at
three levels (NE, network, and service). Its intent-oriented NBIs significantly
simplify OSS integration and accelerate service innovation.

2.3 Incident View


Network O&M is synonymous with high cost and low efficiency, which is largely
due to the fact that O&M activities (such as alarm monitoring, and fault locating,
analysis, and handling) rely heavily on manual work.

Incident View offers intelligent incident management and network risk analysis to
forecast risks, detect faults within 1 minute, and diagnose faults within 3 minutes,

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 5


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 2 Product Features

reducing the cost of handling invalid and correlative events and improving
troubleshooting efficiency.
● Intelligent incident management: builds a fault propagation model based on
O&M big data and expert knowledge, conducts continuous online self-
learning, aggregates correlative alarms into network incidents, and outputs a
fault propagation diagram to accurately locate root events, reducing the cost
of handling invalid and correlative events, improving troubleshooting
efficiency, and reducing dependency on experts.
● Network risk analysis: builds a two-layer AI architecture (AI in the network
management and control system and embedded AI in devices) to detect
anomalies in massive device KPIs, forecast device resources, and analyze and
train network-wide KPI data, configuration data, and performance data
online, implementing proactive detection and analysis of network risks.

2.4 Energy View


As the global energy price surges, energy saving becomes urgent and people are
accelerating their journey to carbon neutrality. Currently, IP transport devices
consume about 20% of energy on the communications network, second only to
base stations.
Energy View provides a way to visually manage and optimize the network energy
consumption from multiple dimensions. The energy consumption of devices on the
transport network is no longer a "black-box;" instead, it is visualized at the device,
network, and carrier levels with the help of industry-leading energy-saving
technologies. The multidimensional energy consumption visualization provides the
energy-saving trend and overview, which show the energy consumption
distributions and trends in real time. The ability to dynamically identify idle
resources and forecast service trends enables Energy View to hibernate or wake up
resources as needed. Through what is described above, it makes carriers closer to
their energy conservation and emission reduction targets and the goal of "green
site, green network, and green operation."

Figure 4-1 Architecture of the NCE enabling cloud-based network solution

The functions of each layer are as follows:

● IT/OSS/application layer
The IT/OSS/application layer is a platform that helps carriers transform to
digital operations. In addition to traditional OSSs and BSSs, the IT/OSS/
application layer includes service orchestrators, policy generators based on big
data analysis and artificial intelligence, and e-commerce portals that support
self-service. The IT/OSS/application layer provides functions that allow for
end-to-end operation of the network, including network infrastructure
resource presentation, service path presentation, and service policy
management. Carriers provide application services to customers through this
layer, including traditional services such as broadband, video, and B2B
enterprise private line services and emerging services such as cloud
computing and vertical industry IoT. This layer provides ways for carriers to
monetize their network infrastructure.
● NCE implements centralized management, control, and analysis of network
infrastructure, cloudifies resources, and automates the entire network lifecycle
based on business and service intents. Moreover, it provides intelligent closed-
loop management driven by data analysis. It also provides open network APIs

Product Description (x86,enterprise) 4 Architecture

and quick IT integration to help carriers accelerate service innovation and


implement e-commerce operations.
From top to bottom, NCE consists of the following layers:
– Open API catalog & gateway
The unified API gateway provides a secure and reliable entry point for
access.
It provides open NBIs to integrate with external systems such as the
traditional OSS, orchestrator, and third-party applications. It supports
backward compatibility of traditional interfaces such as CORBA/MTOSI
and SNMP, and new interfaces such as REST/RESTCONF to adapt to
future solutions and development.
– Scenario-based apps
Provides application packages for automating business scenarios. Users
can simply define service requirements based on their business intentions
without worrying about how the network implements them or what
resources are utilized. NCE converts these service requirements into
network configurations and delivers them. It provides application
packages for network operation and maintenance automation, which
covers the full E2E lifecycle for automated management.
– Intent engine (innovated planning)
Provides lifecycle management and driving capabilities based on
networks, services, and business intentions, supports intent planning,
design, conversion, verification, activation, decision-making, and
optimization, and implements flexible service innovation through model
driving and open model and policy assembling.
– NCE Manager
Provides traditional management capabilities (FCAPS) for device
configuration, alarms, performance, links, and QoS, and provides E2E
automated service provisioning capabilities for traditional networks.
– Controller
Provides capabilities for single- and multi-domain control (including IP
cross-domain, optical cross-domain, and IP+optical cross-layer control) of
SDN networks. Optimizes routes, delivering related configurations
through multi-factor global route computation.
– NCE Analyzer
Provides real-time data collection, status awareness, in-depth analysis,
and intelligent prediction capabilities for network traffic and
performance. Proactively identifies faults and potential risks via big data
analysis and generates warnings.
– Southbound Collection Framework
The southbound collection architecture is decoupled layer by layer.
Plugins can be injected to quickly extend capabilities such as adding new
protocols for data collection, adding device types, and defining new data
outputs.
– Southbound collection
Provides model-driven device data collection capabilities, shields the
application layer from differences in protocols used for collection (such as
telemetry, SNMP, and Qx) and device version differences, and filters

Product Description (x86,enterprise) 4 Architecture

duplicate collection tasks from multiple apps. In this way, data can be
collected once and used for multiple purposes.
– Cloud platform
NCE's unified cloud platform provides a unified user portal, network
planning and IP address planning tool, installation, deployment, upgrade,
system monitoring, and common services such as alarms, security,
topology, and inventory. With its cloud microservice architecture, NCE can
be deployed independently and adapt to any user scenario. As it utilizes
virtualization, NCE supports cloud-based deployment, reducing CAPEX.
● Network infrastructure
The network infrastructure layer (physical layer) is the layer that belongs
mostly to carriers, and includes devices on the transport, IP, and access
networks. It implements the most fundamental of communication and
connection services. Consisting of traditional networks and new SDN
networks, an NCE-enhanced infrastructure layer provides connections
everywhere, and is constantly evolving. It provides high-bandwidth and low-
delay communication services, and abstracts devices at the connection layer
into a shared model to form a network resource pool that can achieve a given
business intent.

4.2 Software Architecture


NCE is a cloud-based system that uses a service-oriented software architecture. It
is deployed on the virtualization platform and can be scaled flexibly. NCE
implements three logical modules (network management, network control, and
network analysis) and various application scenarios as services and components
that allow for flexible, modular deployment to meet customer requirements.

Number of 4
concurrent The maximum invocation concurrency of the CORBA NBI is
interface 4. If the number of invocations exceeds 4, the invocations
requests are queued.
For interfaces that involve a large amount of data, such as
getAllEquipment and getHistoryPMData, it takes a long
time for the NCE server to process the interface invocations.
A small number of concurrent interface invocations are
supported. Therefore, single-thread serial invocation is
recommended. Otherwise, an error indicating a fully loaded
task may be reported.

NOTICE

● The alarm handling capability of the CORBA NBI depends on many factors,
such as the alarm quantity on the live network, and CPU performance and
memory size of the server. At the same time, the CORBA NBI sends alarms
synchronously, that is, another alarm will not be sent until the OSS receives the
previous alarm and responds to the CORBA NBI. Therefore, the network
stability between NCE and the OSS and the handling capability of the OSS will
affect the alarm handling capability of NCE.
● If an alarm storm occurs, the CORBA NBI will possibly reach its handling limit.
The CORBA NBI can report a maximum of 1,000,000 alarms within 1 hour. For
system stability purposes, the CORBA NBI will discard some alarms if the alarm
quantity exceeds 1,000,000. You are recommended to handle network faults
instantly if an alarm storm occurs. In addition, the OSS is suggested to
synchronize alarms actively at proper time, for example, when the system is
idle.

Using southbound interfaces (SBIs), NCE can interconnect with physical-layer
network devices to implement management and control functions.
The IP NEs that NCE-IP can manage include NE series routers, CX series routers,
Ethernet switches, BRASs, ATN devices, and security devices.

Table 4-13 SBI functions supported by NCE-IP


SBI Type Description Supported IP NEs

SNMP SNMP is a TCP/IP-based network management protocol All IP NEs


at the application layer. SNMP uses the UDP protocol at
the transmission layer. Through the SNMP SBI, NCE can
manage network devices that support agent processes.
NCE supports the SNMP SBI that complies with
SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3. Through the SNMP
SBI, NCE can connect to devices. The SNMP SBI
supports basic management functions such as discovery
of network devices, service configuration data
synchronization, fault management, and performance
management.

Telnet/STelnet The Telnet and STelnet SBIs are a basic type of interface All IP NEs
used for remote login to and management of NEs. The
Telnet and STelnet SBIs address the disadvantages of
the SNMP SBI and allow NCE to provide more
management functions.
● Through the Telnet SBI, users can log in to an NE in
the CLI and run commands directly in the CLI to
maintain and configure the NE. Telnet is a TCP/IP-
based network management protocol at the
application layer. Telnet uses the TCP protocol at the
transmission layer and provides services for network
communication. Telnet transmits communication
data in plain text, which is not secure.
● STelnet provides secure Telnet services based on SSH
connections. Providing encryption and
authentication, SSH protects NEs against attacks of
IP address spoofing.

SBI Type Description Supported IP NEs

TFTP/FTP/SFTP TFTP, FTP, and SFTP are TCP/IP-based network All IP NEs
management protocols at the application layer and are
dependent on the UDP protocol.
● TFTP is a simple and low-overhead protocol (as
compared with FTP and SFTP) used to upload and
download files. TFTP does not support password
configuration and transfers file contents in plain
text.
● FTP is a set of standard protocols used for
transferring files on networks. FTP transfers
passwords and file content in plain text.
● SFTP uses the SSH protocol to provide secure file
transfer and processing. For data backup using SFTP,
passwords and data are encrypted during
transmission.
Routers and switches whose VRP version is 5.7 or later
use the TFTP, FTP, or SFTP SBI to synchronize data with
NCE. IP NEs use NE Software Management to
implement functions such as NE upgrades, backup, and
patch installation.

Syslog The Syslog SBI serves as an interface for NCE to receive All IP NEs
system logs from NEs. With the Syslog SBI, NCE can
manage NE logs. IP NEs support Syslog running logs.

ICMP ICMP is a network-layer protocol. It provides error All IP NEs


reports and IP packet processing messages that will be
sent back to the source. ICMP is usually used as an IP-
layer or higher-layer protocol and ICMP packets are
usually encapsulated in IP packets for transmission.
Some ICMP packets carry error packets that will be sent
back to NEs.

NETCONF ● NETCONF is used to manage network data device VRPv8-based routers


configurations. This protocol is designed to (NE, NetEngine, and
supplement the SNMP and Telnet protocols for CX series)
network configuration.
● NETCONF defines a simple mechanism for installing,
manipulating, and deleting the configurations of
network devices. NETCONF uses XML-based data
encoding for the configuration data and protocol
messages. In an automatic network configuration
system, NETCONF plays a crucial role.

NetStream NetStream is a network traffic collection protocol based ATN, CX, ETN, ME,
on UDP transmission, which reports network traffic NE, NetEngine, and
collection results to Analyzer. By using this protocol, PTN series NEs
Analyzer can be aware of the volume, source, and
destination of network traffic.

bandwidth, and packet loss using IGP (such as OSPF
and IS-IS), and then sends the information to the SDN
controller using BGP-LS. Then the SDN controller
computes service paths based on the information.

BGP FlowSpec BGP FlowSpec routes are new BGP routes and carry
traffic matching rules and actions. The SDN controller
delivers BGP FlowSpec routes to forwarders to
implement traffic optimization.

BGP RPD BGP-Route Policy Distribute (RPD) is used by the SDN


controller to send traffic optimization policy routes to
forwarders in inbound traffic optimization scenarios.

4.4 Southbound DCN Networking


NCE and each managed device communicate with each other through the internal
data communication network (DCN) or external DCN. The two modes can also be
used together for DCN networking.

NOTE

For details about the bandwidth requirements of the southbound DCN, see 6.6 Bandwidth
Configurations.

Internal DCN Networking


In internal DCN networking, NCE uses the communication channels provided by
managed devices to transmit management and control information and
implement network management and control.

In this mode, the managed network is generally divided into multiple DCN
subnets. NCE directly communicates with one NE in each subnet called the
gateway NE (GNE). The communication between NCE and the other NEs in the
subnet is forwarded by the GNE. If NCE and the GNE are in the same equipment
room, they can be connected through LAN; otherwise, they need to be connected
through private lines.

Product Description (x86,enterprise) 4 Architecture

Figure 4-4 Internal DCN networking

Internal DCN networking has the following characteristics:


● Advantages: Internal DCN networking is flexible, device-independent, and
cost-effective.
● Disadvantages: When a network fault occurs and the communication channel
between NCE and the managed network is interrupted, NCE cannot maintain
the related devices.

External DCN Networking


In external DCN networking, NCE uses the communication channels provided by
intermediate devices on an external DCN network to transmit management and
control information to managed devices and implement network management
and control. Generally, the managed devices connect to the external DCN through
the management ports on their system control boards.
In this mode, the NCE is connected to the devices on the managed network
through the DCN consisting of other devices. Generally, the managed devices
connect to the external DCN through the management ports on their system
control boards.

Figure 4-5 External DCN networking

External DCN networking has the following characteristics:


● Advantages: External DCN networking allows NCE to connect to the managed
network through other devices. When a managed device is faulty, the device
will not be unreachable from NCE due to the fault of the managed device.
● Disadvantages: External DCN networking requires the construction of an
independent maintenance network that provides no service channels, which
makes network deployment expensive.

5 Deployment Schemes

Based on whether Huawei provides E2E support for software and hardware, NCE
supports two deployment modes: on-premises and private cloud.

5.1 On-Premises Deployment


In on-premises deployment scenarios, Huawei provides both software and
hardware. In other words, Huawei delivers the hardware and software required for
NCE deployment and completes E2E software and hardware configuration.
Depending on whether a virtualization platform is required, on-premises
deployment can be further classified into physical machine deployment and VM
deployment. Generally, factory installation has been completed for NCE before
delivery.
5.2 Deployment on Private Clouds
Deployment on private clouds means that customers prepare the bottom-layer
deployment environment according to the NCE configuration requirements and
Huawei installs the OS and NCE in this environment.
5.3 EasySuite Deployment Tool
In the on-premises and private cloud scenarios where factory installation is not
performed, EasySuite is used to install and deploy NCE.

5.1 On-Premises Deployment


In on-premises deployment scenarios, Huawei provides both software and
hardware. In other words, Huawei delivers the hardware and software required for
NCE deployment and completes E2E software and hardware configuration.
Depending on whether a virtualization platform is required, on-premises

5.1.1 Deployment on Physical Machines


NCE Manager or NCE Manager+Controller+Analyzer (centralized) can be directly
installed and deployed on physical machines (bare metal).

System Networking
Based on different system protection expectations, deployment on physical
machines can be divided to two modes: single site and disaster recovery (DR).
● Single site: A complete set of NCE is deployed in a place with internal
protection enabled.

CAUTION

Table 5-1 lists the comparison of the protection solutions between the single-
site system and the DR system. The DR system is recommended to ensure the
reliability and continuity of NCE.
The table contains the following columns:
● Local Hardware Protection: implements hard disk RAID and hardware
redundancy, such as power supply and fan redundancy, NIC 1+1 bond, and
switch redundancy.
● Local Application Protection: deploys VM nodes in active/standby or cluster
mode.
● Site Protection: implements the DR solution.

● Do not configure CPU, memory, or storage overcommitment. Otherwise, NCE
performance will deteriorate.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 46


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 6 Configuration Requirements

NOTE

Overcommitment is a virtualization technology that allocates more virtual resources


than physical resources to VMs. For example, if the physical memory size is 32 GB,
more than 32 GB memory can be allocated to VMs through overcommitment.
● VM resources must be exclusively occupied. NCE VMs cannot share resources
with other applications.
● Reliability protection must be configured for storage resources. For example,
RAID is configured for disks.
● The management network must be isolated from the service network to
improve network security. For example, VLANs are used to isolate networks.
● NCE has high requirements on input/output operations per second (IOPS) and
I/O delay of storage devices. You are advised to use high-performance storage
for database nodes, for example, centralized SSD all-flash storage. Do not use
distributed storage solutions (such as FusionStorage) or SATA HDDs.
● If HDDs are used, the rotational speed must be greater than or equal to
10000 revolutions per second, and the distributed storage solution is not
recommended.

Type Requirements

Bandwidth The Manager, Analyzer, and Controller have different


between the bandwidth requirements. The required minimum bandwidth
server and NEs is the sum of bandwidths for deploying the Manager,
Analyzer, and Controller.
● Controller Committed Information Rate (CIR): N x 2 kbit/s
(at least 4 Mbit/s)
Peak Information Rate (PIR): N x 10 kbit/s (at least 10
Mbit/s)
● Manager CIR: N x 0. 5 kbit/s (at least 2 Mbit/s); PIR: N x 5
kbit/s (at least 10 Mbit/s) (In different networks, the 2
Mbit/s bandwidth may not meet the bandwidth
requirement of the live network.) In this case, you can use
formulas to determine the CIR and PIR. Network-wide
data synchronization, performance data collection, and
batch upgrade require high bandwidth. Therefore, it is
recommended that the live network bandwidth meet the
PIR requirement.
● Analyzer bandwidth
– (1) Basic performance collection: CIR = N x 0.002
Mbit/s (minimum: 4 Mbit/s), PIR = N x 0.01 Mbit/s
(minimum: 20 Mbit/s)
– (2) SNMP+Telemetry performance collection in NCE-IP
Manager+Controller+Analyzer (excluding PTN): CIR =
N x 0.015 Mbit/s, PIR = N x 0.15 Mbit/s
– (3) Basic performance collection in mobile transport
service assurance of NCE-IP Manager+Controller
+Analyzer:
The IP RAN uses the management plane: CIR = M x
0.008 Mbit/s, PIR = M x 0.08 Mbit/s
The PTN uses the control plane: CIR = M x 0.0112
Mbit/s, PIR = M x 0.336 Mbit/s
– (4) NetStream collection in NCE-IP Manager
+Controller+Analyzer (excluding PTN): If the sampling
ratio is 1000:1 and the live-network traffic is 1 Tbit/s,
the CIR needs to be 200 Mbit/s.
– In the hybrid collection scenario, the bandwidth of the
used collection protocols needs to be accumulated. For
example, in the IP RAN with the mobile transport
service assurance feature of Analyzer, SNMP+Telemetry
performance collection of Analyzer and basic
performance collection of mobile transport service
assurance are used, and therefore the total bandwidth
is (2)+(3). In the PTN with the mobile transport service
assurance feature of Analyzer, the basic performance
collection of Analyzer and that of mobile transport
service assurance are used, and therefore the total
bandwidth is (1)+(3).

Management complex and have wider connections and higher O&M
requirements, a two-layer AI architecture is constructed
between NEs and NCE, and online NCE training and real-
time inference are adopted to provide E2E intelligent
O&M capabilities, such as incident management,
transforming traditional passive O&M based on
complaints into proactive O&M for prevention.

7.2 System and Common Functions

7.2.1 System Settings


NCE connects to southbound systems and O&M interfaces of different systems,
and supports functions such as license management and remote notification.

Interconnection With Southbound Systems


NCE is integrated with Huawei or third-party systems to quickly access NEs and
obtain the NE resources, alarm and performance data, and virtual resources
required for NCE service provisioning or assurance, which improves interconnection
efficiency.
● Configuring and managing a southbound driver: Before interconnecting NCE
with a southbound system, users can import external drivers by means of
management and configure SNMP drivers to quickly adapt to NEs and service
models (resources, alarms, and performance) of the peer system. This
achieves quick driver development and access and improves interconnection
efficiency. Users can also query driver types and monitor and delete driver
instances to achieve unified driver management.
● Interconnecting with a southbound system: Users can interconnect NCE with a
Huawei or third-party system and update certificates to manage NEs or
virtual resources. After login, users can obtain basic information of the NEs,
such as NE and port resources, alarms, and performance data, and collect VM
images, networks, and firewalls.

License Management
Updating and maintaining a license allows the system to properly run based on
the features, versions, capacity, and validity period authorized in a license file.
License management allows users to initially load, update, and routinely maintain
licenses.
● Initially loading a license
After the system is deployed, users need to load a license by importing license
files so that they can use the system properly.
● Updating a license

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 61


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

During O&M, users need to update a license file under any of the following
conditions:
– The license is about to expire.
– The license has expired.
– The license is invalid.
● Routine license maintenance
Users need to query license information in the system from time to time, such
as the expiration time, consumption, and capacity, so that they can quickly
identify and resolve problems (for example, a license is about to expire or its
capacity on resource control items or sales information items is insufficient).

Remote Notification
The notifications feature applies to scenarios where network O&M personnel
cannot view alarms or events in a timely manner during non-working time or
business trips, and where O&M personnel need to send notifications to relevant
personnel.
● If network O&M personnel cannot view alarms or events onsite in a timely
manner during non-working time or business trips, the alarms and events are
sent to them in the form of emails or SMS messages.
After setting notification parameters, O&M personnel set the message content
and message sending rules. Then, the system automatically sends alarms and
events to relevant personnel in the form of SMS messages or emails through
its interconnected SMSGW or mail server.
● O&M personnel need to send some notifications to relevant personnel.
O&M personnel can manually edit message contents to be sent or use set
notification templates after setting notification parameters. O&M personnel
can manually enable the system to send SMS messages and emails to
relevant personnel so that they can obtain information about the alarms and
events.
Figure 7-1 shows the principles of the notifications feature.

● Automatic and manual modes are supported.


– Automatic mode: O&M personnel set the message content and message
sending rules. Then, NCE automatically sends alarms and events to
relevant personnel in SMS messages or emails through the SMSGW or
mail server connected to NCE.
– Manual mode: O&M personnel manually edit message contents to be
sent or use preset notification templates, and trigger NCE to send SMS
messages and emails to relevant personnel so that they can obtain
information about the alarms and events.
● The notifications can be sent by SMS message or email.

Broadcast Messages
Broadcast messages are the foreground notifications of the system. Broadcast
messages provide the event and message channel between the client and server
applications.
● Event: data processed by application code.
● Message: text visible to users.

Certificate Management
Certificate management involves service certificate management, CA
interconnection configuration, and certificate application. Service certificates can
be managed (including preconfiguration, import, deletion, and periodic validity
check) in a centralized manner, and you can quickly apply for and use the
certificates.

CA Service
The CA service provides functions such as configuring and managing CAs,
certificate templates, and CRLs, and supports the standard certificate management
protocol (CMP) and privacy CA protocol. Through the CA service, users can quickly
apply for and use certificates, which reduce the cost of certificate application.

CA Proxy Service
The CA proxy service is used to connect NCE with the CA or CRL server.
The CA proxy service provides functions such as CA server connection and CRL
server connection.

Table 7-4 Functions of the CA proxy service

Function Description

CA server Used for connection with a CA server. After the connection is


connection successful, users can apply for certificates from the CA server.

CRL server Used for connection with a CRL server. After the connection is
connection successful, users can obtain CRL files from the CRL server.

as Manufacture Date, Starting Point Date, Session (Month), and Status.

In the current version, the lifecycle information about NEs, boards, and local hosts
can be managed. The local devices refer to the NCE software or hardware.

Online Help
NCE provides a layered design for the GUI help adapting to user needs in diverse
scenarios. An online help system is established supporting on-demand learning
anytime and anywhere. A variety of help forms such as tips, panels, F1 or question
mark windows, and Information Center are provided. All necessary information is
directly displayed on the GUI. Information that is closely related to the current
operation is folded. You can expand the information if necessary. Systematic
learning information is placed in an independent help system.

7.2.2 Alarm Management


Alarm Management enables O&M personnel to centrally monitor NE, system
services, and third-party system alarms and quickly locate and handle network
faults, ensuring normal network operation.

Alarm Severity
The alarm severity indicates the importance and urgency of a fault. It helps O&M
personnel quickly identify the importance of an alarm, take corresponding
handling policies, and change the severity of an alarm as required.

Alarm severities can also be redefined, as shown in Table 7-5.

Alarm Handling Mechanism


Alarm management provides three alarm handling mechanisms. For details, see
Table 7-10.

Table 7-10 Alarm handling mechanisms


Mechanism Description

Alarm merging To help users improve the efficiency of monitoring and


rule handling alarms, alarm management provides alarm merging
rules. Alarms with the same specified fields (such as location
information and alarm ID) are merged into one alarm. This
rule is used only for monitoring and viewing alarms on the
Current Alarms page and takes effect only for current alarms.
The specific implementation scheme is as follows:
● If a newly reported alarm does not correspond to any
previous reported alarm that meets the merging rule, the
newly reported alarm is displayed as a merged alarm and
the value of Occurrences is 1.
● If the newly reported alarm B and the previous reported
alarm A meet the merging rule, alarm B and alarm A are
merged into one alarm record and are sorted by clearance
status (uncleared alarms are displayed first) and occurrence
time in descending order.
If alarm A is displayed on top, it is still regarded as a
merged alarm, and the Occurrences value of the merged
alarm increases by one. Alarm B is regarded as an original
alarm.
In the alarm list, click Occurrences of an alarm, you can
view the detailed information about the merged alarm and
original alarm.
● If a merged alarm is cleared, it will be converted into an
original alarm. The previous original alarms will be sorted
by clearance status (uncleared alarms are displayed first)
and occurrence time in descending order.
● If a merged alarm or original alarm is cleared and
acknowledged, the alarm will be converted to a historical
alarm and the value of Occurrences decreases by one.

Mechanism Description

Processing of To prevent excessive current alarms from deteriorating system


the full current performance, alarm management provides a full-alarm
alarm cache processing rule. When the number of current alarms in the
database reaches the upper threshold, alarm management
applies the following rules to move some alarms to the
historical alarm list. When the number of alarms falls to 90%
of the upper threshold, alarm management stops the
processing of the full current alarm cache.
1. Alarms are moved to the historical alarm list in the
following sequence: original alarms in the maintenance
state, alarms that do not match any merging rules and are
in the maintenance state, original alarms in the normal
state, and alarms that do not match any merging rules and
are in the normal state.
2. Alarms in the same maintenance state and merging state
are moved to the historical alarm list in the following
sequence: cleared and acknowledged alarms, cleared and
unacknowledged alarms, and acknowledged and uncleared
ADMC alarms.
3. Alarms of the same type are moved to the historical alarm
list in ascending order of alarm severity.
4. Unacknowledged and uncleared alarms are moved to the
historical alarm list in sequence based on the preceding
rules.
5. For the alarms that meet the preceding conditions, the
earlier alarms are moved to the historical alarm list first.
6. In a distributed system, when the NE alarms are reported to
different nodes and the processing of the full current alarm
cache is triggered, the alarms are moved to the historical
alarm list in descending order of the node alarm quantity.
The more alarms are reported to a node, the higher the
priority of the node is. For example, if an NE is connected to
node A and node B, and the alarm quantity on node A is
more than node B, the processing of the full current alarm
cache is performed only on node A.

Mechanism Description

Alarm dump To avoid excessive alarm database data, the system dumps
rule events, masked alarms, and historical alarms every 2 minutes
according to the following rules. The dumped alarms or events
cannot be queried in the alarm or event list.
● If the database space usage reaches 80%, alarm
management dumps the data in the database to files
according to the sequence of occurrence time and data
table type (event, masked alarm, or historical alarm). When
the space usage after dumping reaches 80% of the usage
before dumping, the dumping is stopped.
● If alarm management detects that the data in the database
table is generated 90 days ago, it dumps the database
table.
Dumped files that meet any of the following rules will be
deleted:
● The dumped file will be deleted after 180 days.
● If the total size of the dumped files exceeds 1 GB or the
total number of files exceeds 1000, the system deletes the
earliest files.

Alarm Management Function


Alarm management provides a variety of monitoring and processing rules. You can
configure alarms or events to reduce the number of alarms, implement real-time
alarm notification, and meet personalized monitoring requirements. Multiple
monitoring pages provide users with various and convenient monitoring and
processing methods. For routine maintenance of alarm data, a configurable
assurance mechanism is provided to prevent the reporting of new alarms from
being affected when the database is full.
For details about the alarm or event rules that can be configured, see Table 7-11.

Table 7-11 Configuring alarm or event rules


Function Description

Configuring Alarm management provides visualized pages for managing


alarms or alarm rules and settings. In a DR scenario, alarm rules are
events synchronized between the active site and standby site every
hour. After a DR switchover, the synchronization of all alarm
rules is complete within 5 minutes.
● Masking rule
During maintenance, test, or deployment, the system or MO
generates predictable alarms or events that require no
attention or handling. You can set rules to mask these
alarms or events so that they are not displayed on the
Current Alarms, Historical Alarms, or Event Logs page.
When setting a masking rule, you can choose to discard
masked alarms or events, that is, these alarms or events are
not saved to the alarm database, or display the masked
alarms on the Masked Alarms page.
● Severity and type redefinition rule
To ensure the smooth running of network devices or key
devices in a region, you can set redefinition rules to change
the severity and type of alarms or events. For example, if an
alarm is considered important, its severity can be set to a
higher one, so that O&M personnel can handle it
preferentially to provide high-quality network assurance
services.
● Name redefinition rule
Some alarm or event names are professional, which do not
conform to user habits or are too technical to understand.
You can redefine alarm or event names as required.
● Correlation rule
A correlation rule defines correlative relationships between
alarms. Correlated alarms are the alarms with related
causes. Among correlated alarms, one alarm is the root
alarm of the others, and other alarms are correlative alarms
of the alarm. You can customize correlation rules, and
enable and disable default correlation rules as required.
When monitoring or viewing alarms, you can filter out
correlative alarms and focus on only the root alarms that
you need to handle.
● Intermittent/Toggling rule
When the interval between generation and clearance of an
alarm is less than a specific period, the alarm is considered
as an intermittent alarm.
If the number of times an alarm (with the same ID) is
reported by the same alarm source in a specified period
reaches the trigger condition, toggling handling is started.
After an intermittent/toggling alarm handling rule is set, the
intermittent alarms or alarms that are generated during the

iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

Function Description

toggling can be discarded or masked to reduce interference


caused by repeated alarms.
● Aggregation rule
Repeated alarms or events are the alarms or events (with
the same ID) reported by the same alarm or event source for
multiple times. After an aggregation rule is set, the system
automatically aggregates the repeated alarms or events
reported within the specified period into one alarm or event.
O&M personnel can view the aggregated alarms on the
alarm details page.
● Setting events as ADMC alarms
If events require more attention, you can set them to auto
detected manually cleared (ADMC) alarms. This type of
alarms cannot be automatically cleared.
● Auto acknowledgement rule
After an auto acknowledgment rule is set, alarm
management automatically acknowledges the current
alarms in the cleared state according to the specified rule
and moves the acknowledged alarms to the historical alarm
list.
● Northbound filtering rule
On the live network, the upper-layer NMS often receives a
large number of alarms. Network congestion and breakdown
may occur due to overload, and you cannot quickly locate
concerned alarms. To resolve this problem, you can set alarm
northbound filtering rules to determine whether to report
the alarms that meet the rules to the upper-layer NMS.

Alarm By using the alarm notification function, alarm management


notification can send the alarm or event information to users in real time
by SMS message or email. In this way, the users can learn
about the alarm or event information in real time and handle
important alarms or events in a timely manner.

severities and colors for selected alarms or events to easily
identify alarms or events.
● Alarm sounds: You can set sounds for alarms at different
severities so that you can identify the importance of alarms.
● Font colors: You can set font colors for read and unread
alarms to distinguish alarms.
● Highlight: If alarms at a severity are not handled, that is, the
alarm status remains unchanged, within the specified period
of time, the alarms are highlighted in the alarm list
according to the highlight settings.
● Alarm display mode: You can set alarm display modes for
alarms at different severities and in different states so that
you can quickly identify concerned alarms.
● Global alarm indicators: You can enable global alarm
indicators so that you can learn about the overall situation
of alarms in real time on different web client pages.
● Alarm box: The alarm box can use indicators in different
colors and play different sounds based on NE alarm
severities. You can set filter criteria for the alarm box. Alarms
that match the criteria are sent to the alarm box and you
are notified of the alarms by indicators and sounds.
● Emergency maintenance notification: By setting the
emergency maintenance notification function, you can
determine whether to display the Emergency Maintenance
Notification panel to remind O&M personnel to handle
alarms in a timely manner.

● Browsing alarms by status or severity


A page is divided into four areas to display current alarms
by status or severity.

Handling You can use alarm management to handle alarms to


alarms facilitate troubleshooting. For example, you can specify alarm
handlers and acknowledge or clear alarms. Alarm handling
functions are as follows:
● Viewing alarm details
Obtains key alarm information, including alarm names,
repair recommendations, and location information, to
facilitate fault diagnosis and troubleshooting.
● Manually acknowledging alarms
Acknowledging an alarm indicates that the alarm is traced
by a user, and other users can ignore it. If you want other
users to focus on the alarm again, you can unacknowledge
the alarm. Manual alarm acknowledgement and
unacknowledgement, and automatic acknowledgement by
severity are supported in alarm management.
● Recording maintenance experience
After handling an alarm, the O&M personnel can record
the handling experience in a timely manner for future

7.2.3 Security Management


Security management involves management of user permissions, user policies, and
logs, as well as security situation analysis of products. Security management helps
protect NCE against unauthorized user logins, ensuring system data security.

7.2.3.1 User Management


User Management ensures the security of user information and the system. By
attaching users to roles and managing the permissions of each role, resource
allocation is optimized and permission management is simplified, improving O&M
efficiency.
● Role-based authorization minimizes permissions and optimizes resource
allocation.
● The permissions and resources in a region are managed by the region
administrator, ensuring prompt maintenance of user permissions.
● Most users use the Authentication, Authorization, Accounting (AAA) system
to implement centralized user management, authentication, and
authorization. After interconnecting with the AAA system though remote
authentication configuration, the system authenticates users to ensure that
only those authorized can log in.

User Management
● User
A user refers to a person who uses the system. Information about a user
includes their username, password, and permissions.
Users can be classified into the following types:
– Local users: users who are authenticated and log in to the O&M plane
– Third-party users: users (machine-machine accounts) that interconnect
the O&M plane with third-party systems
– Remote users: users that interconnect with Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP) or Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS)
servers
A system administrator can be configured during the system installation. The
system administrator has all permissions on all managed objects, and is
attached to both the Administrators and SMManagers roles.

NOTICE

● The system administrator has the highest permission for the system and all
managed objects. Exercise caution when performing operations as this
user, and avoid any actions that might affect system security. For example,
do not share or distribute the username and password of the system
administrator.
● The system administrator user can be renamed. For details, see "Disabling,
Enabling, or Renaming Default Web Users" in Administrator Guide.

The system defines two types of special users:

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 78


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

– Security administrator: a user attached to the SMManagers role


– Administrator: a user attached to the Administrators role
● Role
Users attached to a role have all the permissions granted to that role. You can
quickly authorize a user by attaching the user to a role, facilitating permission
management. Figure 7-3 shows role information.

Figure 7-3 Role information

Users attached to a role have all the permissions granted to that role and can
manage all the resources managed by the role. A user can also be attached to
multiple roles, whereby the user has all the permissions granted to those roles
and can manage all the resources managed by the roles.
Default roles cannot be deleted and their permissions cannot be modified as
these permissions are granted by the system. The system provides the
following default roles:

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 79


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

NOTICE

Users attached to the Administrators or SMManagers roles have operation


rights for all resources in the system. As such, exercise caution when
performing operations with these user accounts, and do not take any action
that might affect system security. For example, do not share or distribute
these user names and passwords.

Role Name Description

Administrators Has all the permissions except User Management, Query


Security Log, and View Online Users.

SMManagers Has the User Management, License Management, View


Online Users, Query Security Log, and Update ACL
Policy permissions.

NBI User The user group has permission to configure northbound


Group interfaces such as SNMP, RESTful, CORBA, XML, OMC, and
TEXT NBIs.

Guest The domain of this user group is All Objects, and it has
operation rights for default monitor operation sets. They
can perform query operations, such as querying statistics,
but cannot create or configure objects.

Maintenance The domain of this user group is All Objects, and it has
Group operation rights for default maintenance operation sets. In
addition to the rights of the Guests and Operator Group
groups, users in this group have the rights to create
services and perform configurations that affect the
running of NCE and NEs. For example, they can search for
protection subnets and trails, delete composite services,
and reset boards.

Operator The domain of this user group is All Objects, and it has
Group operation rights for default operator operation sets. In
addition to the rights of the Guests group, users in this
group have the rights to modify on NCE (rights to perform
potentially service-affecting operations are not involved).
For example, they can change alarm severities.

Analyzer User Analyzer user group.


Group

HOFS Group Has the File Management Operation Set permission.

● Operation rights and operation set


Operation sets are used to assign a set of operation rights to roles. Users
attached to a role have the operation set of that role.
User Management provides two types of operation sets:
– Application operation set: a collection of operation rights for system
functions, such as querying system logs and creating users.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 80


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

The system provides the default application operation set All Application
Operations. For security purposes, this operation set contains the
operation rights for all system functions except User Management,
Auditlog Manager, and License Manager.
– Device operation set: a collection of operation rights for devices, such as
starting and stopping switches.
The system provides the default device operation set All Device
Operations, which contains the operation rights for all devices.

Permission Management
A permission defines what operations a user can perform on what objects.
Permission elements include an operator, operation objects, and operations as
shown in Figure 7-4.

Figure 7-4 User Management permission

● Permission
– Users act as operators.
– Operation objects include the system and resources (physical and virtual
resources, such as servers, network devices, and VMs) where users
perform operations.
– Operations include application operations and device operations.
Application operations are performed on the system. Device operations
are performed on resources.
● Authorization mechanism
Authorization is the process of granting permissions on certain objects to
users. The authorization mechanism of User Management is as follows:
– To authorize a user with an object on which this user needs to perform
operations, add this object to the managed objects of the role that this
user is attached to.
– To authorize a user with an operation that they are required to perform,
add it to the operations for which the user's current role has operation
rights.
Figure 7-5 shows the authorization principles of User Management.

iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

Figure 7-5 User authorization principles of User Management

NOTE

● Users can perform application operations and device operations. If only managed
objects are configured for a role but no device operation is configured, users of this
role can view the managed objects after logging in to the system but do not have
the operation rights for the managed objects.
● If Assign rights to users directly is selected, permissions can be directly granted to
users.
● Authorization method
The authorization method of user management grants permissions by
attaching a user to a role. After the security administrator sets role
permissions (including managed objects and operation rights), they attach the
user to a role in order to grant them access to the role's permissions. If Assign
rights to users directly is selected, permissions can be granted to users
directly.
User authorization allows security administrators to implement authorization
for all users in a post at the same time. When employee posts are changed,
security administrators can delete the original user from the role and add the
new user to authorize them.
● Secondary authorization
Secondary authorization policies are required to ensure that users can
cautiously perform dangerous operations or those that will have a major
impact. After a secondary authorization policy is enabled, users are not
allowed (prohibition or suspension occurs) to perform these operations when
the criteria set in the secondary authorization policy are met, even if they
have operation rights for these operations. If an operation is suspended, users

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 82


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

can only proceed with the operation after they are authenticated by a user
that has the operation rights for Secondary Authorization Authentication.

Region Management
Regions can be classified by geographic location or resource usage, and users can
be authorized based on regions.
Security administrators can create different regions based on service requirements
to implement regional rights-based management. After a region is created, the
system automatically creates a region administrator role Region
name_SMManager for the new region. Security administrators need to set
parameters on the Mandate-Operation Rights and Mandate-Managed Objects
tab pages for the region administrator to enable them to manage the users, roles,
objects, and operation sets in this region based on the settings.

● Security administrator permissions and region administrator permissions


Security administrators have all the permissions in the system. Region
administrator permissions are set by security administrators based on service
requirements.

User Maintenance and Monitoring


During user permission maintenance, you can view and modify user, role, and
operation set information, and monitor user sessions and operations in real time,
ensuring system security.
● Common operations for user information maintenance include viewing,
exporting, and modifying user information, as well as deleting users.
● Common operations for role information maintenance include viewing,
exporting, and modifying role information, as well as deleting roles.
● Common operations for operation set information maintenance include
viewing and modifying operation set information, as well as deleting
operation sets.
● You can modify user information (such as Max. online sessions and Login
time policy) in batches to improve system security.
● Personal settings involve periodically changing personal data such as the user
password, telephone number, and email address, to ensure optimal user
security.
NOTE

● When modifying your personal information (for example, mobile number or email
address), you are obligated to take appropriate measures in compliance with the
laws of the countries concerned and the user privacy policies of your company to
ensure that your personal data is fully protected.
● To ensure the security of personal data such as mobile numbers and email
addresses, such data is anonymized on the GUI, and HTTPS encryption
transmission channels are used.
● Resetting a user password: If a user forgets their password or is unable to
change it, they must contact security administrators to reset it. If a security
administrator forgets their password, they must contact the system
administrator to reset it.

NOTICE

● If the admin user forgets the password, the password must be reset by
referring to "Resetting the Password for the admin User of the
Management Plane or O&M Plane" in Administrator Guide.
● For account security purposes, it is recommended that third-party system
access users contact the security administrator to periodically reset their
passwords.

● User monitoring: This refers to the monitoring of users' resource access


behaviors, including session monitoring (online status) and operation
monitoring. If a user performs an unauthorized or dangerous operation, the
system allows security administrators to forcibly log out the user. This
function allows security administrators to prevent user access and ensure
system security.

User Policies
User Policies allow you to set access control rules for users. During the initial
installation of the system, you must plan and configure user policies and adjust

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 84


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

the configurations based on management requirements. This prevents


unauthorized users from intruding into the system, ensuring system security. User
policies involve account policies, password policies, client IP address policies, and
login time policies.

● Account policies: These include the minimum username length and user login
policies. Appropriate setting of an account policy improves system access
security. The account policy is set by security administrators and takes effect
for all users.
● Password policies: A password policy includes the password complexity,
change interval, and character limitation. Appropriate setting of a password
policy prevents users from setting weak passwords or using the same
password for extended periods, improving system access security. The
password policy is set by security administrators and takes effect for all users.
A new password policy does not affect the configured password.
● Client IP address policies: A client IP address policy provides a control
mechanism for checking the accessibility of the IP address used by an external
access request during system operation. After a client IP address policy is set
and applied, users are only allowed to log in to the system using IP addresses
within the specified IP address range.
● Login time policies: A login time policy provides a control mechanism for
checking the validity time of an external access request during system
operation. After a login time policy is set and applied, users are only allowed
to log in to the system within the specified period. The system administrator
is not restricted by the login time policy.

7.2.3.2 Log Management


Log management records logs and allows user to query and export logs, as well as
create, export, and import operation log templates. In this way, users can obtain
information about operations they perform in the system and the system running
status in real time. Log forwarding settings report audit logs as well as logs
reported by other applications to the Syslog server for users to query and analyze.

Usage Scenario
Log management is used when you need to perform routine maintenance, locate
and troubleshoot faults, trace historical logs, and query operation logs across
systems.

● Routine maintenance
It is necessary to view logs during routine maintenance. If logs exist recording
failed, partially successful, or unknown operations, or logs in the risk level,
analyze the exception causes and troubleshoot the faults.
● Fault locating and troubleshooting
To locate and troubleshoot faults occurring during system running, you can
analyze logs to detect whether risk-level operations or operations that affect
system security are performed.
● Historical log tracing
Logs are stored in the database after being generated. The system periodically
dumps logs from the database to a hard disk to ensure sufficient database

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 85


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

space. To ensure the integrity and traceability of logs, you can forward these
logs to the Syslog server.
● Cross-system operation log query
If you need to query operation logs meeting the same criteria on different
systems, you can set filter criteria on one of the systems, save these criteria as
a template, and import the template to other systems.

Log Types
Log management allows the system to automatically record information regarding
the system's running status and operations performed by users.
Table 7-14 describes the log types recorded in log management.

management records logs and saves the logs to the log management database. To
prevent logs from exhausting the database space, the system automatically dumps
logs meeting the requirements from the database to the hard disk of a server. The
dumped logs are automatically deleted from the database.
Logs can be dumped by means of integrated task management and log
management. Logs that have been dumped to the hard disk are automatically
deleted from the database. To prevent log files from exhausting the hard disk
space, the system periodically checks log files on the hard disk and deletes log
files meeting the requirements from the hard disk. For details, see Table 7-15.

Log Forwarding
Log forwarding settings are used when users need to trace the logs recorded by
log management, or query and analyze the logs recorded by log management as
well as the logs of other functions (such as NE Syslog run logs and NE Syslog
operation logs) in real time.
● Users need to permanently store the NCE system logs recorded by log
management so that they can trace the logs to locate problems or rectify
faults.
● For the logs of other functions (such as NE Syslog run logs and NE Syslog
operation logs), log forwarding settings allow users to centrally query and
analyze these logs on Syslog servers.

7.2.3.3.1 Security Situation Awareness


Situational awareness provides visualized threat detection and analysis. It classifies
and aggregates the detected attack events, threat alarms, and attack sources, and
displays visualized reports and attack situation for users, providing a basis for
decision-making on security event handling.

Related Concepts
● Assets: objects on which Security Situational Awareness performs security
detection and analysis. You can set detection rules to detect real-time or
historical events on an asset. The internal assets of Security Situational
Awareness are in a two-layer model. The first layer consists of NEs and the
NMS, and the second layer consists of NE VMs, NMS VMs, and FusionSphere
physical machines.
– Business assets: OSS and NEs.
– Hosts: NE VMs, NMS VMs, and FusionSphere physical machines.
● Security events: events that may pose threats to asset security. Security
Situational Awareness allows you to view and handle security events.
● Security Situational Awareness provides two detection modes: offline
detection and real-time detection.

7.2.3.3.2 Remote Attestation


Remote attestation is one of the key technologies in the trusted computing
solution and is used to verify the trust relationship of devices. Remote attestation
obtains relevant measurement data (including the measurement values and
measurement logs of PCRs) from a device, compares the data with baseline
values, and displays the trust relationship of the device based on the comparison
result.

Description
Remote attestation verifies the trust status of the device, including the integrity of
the device in the boot phase and running phase. During verification by remote
attestation, the boot phase needs to be used together with the measurement boot
phase, and the running phase needs to be used together with the IMA
measurement phase.

In the measurement boot process, the measurement values of software running


on the device in each boot phase are extended to the platform configuration
register (PCR) of the HTM or TPM. After the device is booted successfully, remote
attestation initiates a challenge to the device to be verified, obtains the
measurement value, measurement logs, and other information of the PCR, and
compares the measurement value with the baseline value to verify whether the
device is trusted. The device is trusted only when the integrity of all software
meets expectations.

Remote attestation provides the following functions:

● Allows users to manually verify the trust relationship of a device, or enables


the system to automatically do so at a scheduled time.
● Verifies the integrity of files loaded during device boot and running.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 94


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

● Displays the overall device trust relationship and the trust relationship of the
board.
● Reports an alarm when a device is untrusted.

Usage Scenario
During device boot and operation, attackers may exploit vulnerabilities to tamper
with programs and implant Trojan horses. Remote attestation obtains integrity
measurement data during device boot or operation, provides device identity and
integrity verification reports, generates alarms when a device is untrusted, and
prompts you to handle file tampering attacks.

7.2.3.3.3 Dynamic Trust Assessment


Dynamic Trust Assessment assesses the security status of users based on security
detection events. O&M personnel can adjust dynamic policies in real time based
on assessment results to improve network security.

Basic Concepts
● Trust score: dynamic trust assessment result. A higher score indicates higher
security. The default initial score of a user is 100.
● Security detection event: basis for trust assessment by Dynamic Trust
Assessment. Dynamic Trust Assessment scores the security status of each user
based on the impact values of all security detection events.
● Risk event impact period: Events that occurred during this period are used as
the basis for trust assessment.
● Risk event storage period: Events whose risk event impact period expires but
risk event storage period does not expire are not used as the basis for trust
assessment.

Function

7.2.3.3.4 Dynamic Policy Management


Dynamic policy management executes policies based on the user trust score. If a
user performs a risky operation, the trust score of the user decreases. If the trust

iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

score of the user is less than or equal to the trust score required by a policy, the
policy will be implemented to improve the system security.

Related Concepts
Understanding related concepts such as the policy trust score helps you
implement the functions of dynamic policy management.

The trust score is the result of dynamic trust assessment. A higher score indicates
higher security. The default score of a user is 100.

Policy: A policy controls measures taken on users based on their trust scores,
including reporting an alarm, enabling two-factor authentication, restricting high-
risk operations, logging out sessions, and warning.

Usage Scenario
If a user performs a risky operation, the trust score of the user decreases. For
security purposes, if the trust score of the user is less than or equal to the trust
score required a policy, the policy will be implemented to take measures, such as
logging out the user session and reporting an alarm.

Dynamic Policy Management


The dynamic trust assessment service gives a trust score for the reported security
logs and operation logs, and then delivers the trust score to dynamic policy
management. Dynamic policy management matches a policy based on the trust
score and implements the matched policy.

Figure 7-9 shows the principles of dynamic policy management.

7.3.1.2 DCN Management


NCE communicates with NEs and manages and maintains network nodes through
DCNs.

On the DCNs, NCE and NEs are considered as nodes. These nodes are connected
through Ethernet or DCCs. The DCN between NCE and the managed network is
divided into two parts:

● DCN between the NCE server and NEs: The NCE server communicates with
NEs through a local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). In
practice, NCE and NEs may be located on different floors, in different
buildings, or even in different cities. Therefore, NCE and NEs are usually
connected through an external DCN with switches and routers.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 109


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

● DCN between different NEs: Inband or outband networking is established


between NEs and NCE. As the DCN between the NCE server and NEs is
external, the DCN between NEs is referred to as an internal DCN.
Huawei's NEs support DCN networking through the following communication
protocols:
● TCP/IP (IP over DCC). Data transmitted in the DCC is encapsulated through
the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
● OSI (OSI over DCC). Data transmitted in the DCC is encapsulated through
Open Systems Interconnection (OSI).
NOTE

● IP and OSI are standard communication protocols, which can function in networks using
devices from different vendors. In addition, these two standard protocols can be
adopted on networks consisting of only Huawei devices. In the case of a hybrid network
consisting of optical network NEs from different vendors that do not support IP or OSI,
Huawei provides solutions such as transparent transmission of DCC bytes and Ethernet
service channels' transparent transmission of management information.

DCN Functions Supported by NCE-IP


The following DCN management functions are provided for ATN and CX series
NEs:
● Automatically add non-gateway NEs to NCE in batches. Users do not need to
plan data before ATN series NEs are powered on and added to NCE for
management.
● Show the running status and connection status of NEs in the DCN view.

7.3.1.3 Performance Management


When the network is running properly, internal and external factors may affect
network performance and cause network faults. To ensure sufficient network
performance at low costs and to prepare for future performance requirements,
users need to plan, monitor, and measure aspects of network efficiency, such as
throughput, usage, and error rate. Through performance management, tendency
towards deterioration can be noticed early and solved before a fault occurs. In
addition, high-precision (10-6) performance measurement based on service
packets is implemented to collect performance indicators, including the packet
loss rate, delay, and jitter.
NCE provides a GUI for monitoring network KPIs and displaying statistics about
collected performance data.

for specific performance indicators. NCE also provides default global settings
for batch configuration. The following thresholds can be set: The following
thresholds can be set:
– Upper and lower threshold
– Alarm thresholds
● Maintaining data. With this function, users can:
– Save performance data
– Age performance data

Performance Data Collection Capability


NCE supports the following performance collection modes:

● Collection based on SNMP


NOTE

● NEs must respond in 0.05s to collection requests sent from NCE. Otherwise, the actual
performance collection capability is compromised.
● The preceding collection capabilities are applicable only to SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c. For
SNMPv3, only 2/3 of the data collection capabilities are reached. For example, on a
large-scale network, the performance collection capability for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c is
150,000 equivalent NEs, and the performance collection capability for SNMPv3 is
100,000 equivalent NEs when max/min data aggregation is disabled. SNMPv1 and
SNMPv2c are insecure protocols. A more secure SNMPv3 protocol is recommended.
● Bulk collection based on a file transfer protocol, which is usually used for
large-capacity performance management.
● Collection based on Qx, a protocol developed by Huawei, which can be used
for MSTP, WDM, RTN, PTN, and OTN equipment.

Performance Monitoring Policy


● Customize the performance threshold template. Specifically, users can
customize a maximum of 16 performance threshold templates in addition to
the default template.
● Select the performance threshold template for an NE and set the performance
thresholds.
● Customize the RMON performance attribute template.
● Set the performance thresholds for a specified board.
● Set the NE performance monitoring time.
● Set whether to prompt unavailable time and threshold-crossing events in a
timely manner.
● Set the start and end time for monitoring Ethernet performance.
● Set the monitoring status of Ethernet performance events.
● Set the ATM performance monitoring time.
● Set the ATM performance monitoring period.
● Set the monitoring status of ATM performance events.
● Set real-time ATM performance monitoring.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 112


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

● Set performance thresholds by ports or channels.

Performance Data Aging


The storage duration of performance data varies depending on the collection
period. If the collection period is 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, or 30
minutes, performance data generated only in the last day is saved by default. If
the collection period is 1 hour or 1 day, performance data generated only in the
last 8 days or 30 days is saved by default.
Performance data can be aged in the database in either of the following ways:
● Automatic aging: Performance data is deleted automatically based on the
preset lifecycle values, such as the number of days for different granularities
and the database usage.
● Manual aging: Performance data is aged based on the user-defined
conditions, according to the aging type within the end date.

Performance Monitoring Template Management


Each performance monitoring template is a collection of performance indicators in
different indicator groups. Users can manage a performance monitoring task
easily by setting such a template.
There are different types of performance monitoring templates. Some may contain
indicators and indicator groups of network resources, while others may contain
both indicators and indicator thresholds.

SLA Template
This function enables users to configure SLA parameters in a template. This saves
operation time for configuring SLA parameters when creating an instance.

Monitoring Instance Management


Instance: Resource + Template = Instance. An instance collects data on some
indicators of a specific performance resource. A template can contain multiple
indicator groups.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 113


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

NOTE

● Resource: A resource is a telecommunication resource model, for example, NEs, boards,


ports, or links in a performance management domain. A resource can be either a
physical or logical entity. Logical resources contain physical resources. A resource has
specific performance indicators. A performance monitoring system collects indicator
values for resources.
● Profile: A profile is a set of performance data collection indicators. Indicators are
presented in indicator groups. Users can configure templates to manage performance
monitoring tasks easily.
● Indicator group: An indicator group is a set of statistics indicators of performance
measurement. Each indicator group contains one or multiple indicators with similar
properties.
● Indicator: Indicators are related with resources. It indicates an aspect of the performance
of a monitored resource, for example, CPU usage and memory usage. Performance
indicator values are calculated based on the performance data collected from the
monitored resource. A performance indicator has properties, such as the data type,
precision value (only for float), maximum value, and minimum value.

By creating a monitoring instance, users can collect resource performance data of


a specified device based on the pre-configured templates and scheduled policies.
One monitoring instance collects data for only one resource.
Users can perform the following operations about monitoring instances:
● Create a monitoring instance for the IP SLA from resources such as NEs,
boards, ports, and links to PTN and third-party equipment.
● Modify a monitoring instance.
● View a monitoring instance.
● Delete monitoring instances.
● Suspend a monitoring instance.
● Resume monitoring instances.
● Synchronize instance resources.
● Query and rectify monitoring instance exceptions.
● Query the threshold.
● Query the VPN SLA test result.
● Export instance information.
● Collect statistics about instances.
● View KPI values in the Performance Monitoring Management window.

Scheduled Policy Management


For performance instances using the SNMP collection protocol, a scheduled policy
specifies the time segments and interval at which the data needs to be collected.
Users can apply scheduled policies to the resources while creating or modifying a
monitoring instance.

Historical Performance Data Query


Users can collect network performance data within a specified period and save the
data in multiple formats. This provides reference for predicting changes in network
performance.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 114


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

NCE can query performance data by parameters such as the NE name, time, and
performance data type. Currently, 5-minute, 10-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, 1-
hour and 1-day historical performance data can be queried. Users can view the
historical performance data of a network in a line chart or table. Line charts allow
the query result to be saved in .csv format, while tables allow the query result to
be saved in .csv, .html, .pdf, .txt, and .xml formats. For example, if performance
data is saved in .csv format, the result will be similar to Figure 7-20.

Figure 7-20 Saving the result

In addition, users can compare performance data in different periods in a line


chart or bar chart or compare the indicators of different resources in a chart.
Users can choose whether to view the historical performance of a resource in one
chart or multiple charts.

Real-Time Performance Data Query


Users can view real-time performance data in a table, line chart, or bar chart, and
save performance data in .csv, .html, .pdf, .txt, and .xml file format.
Users can also set the default display mode to line chart, bar chart, or table.

Network Performance Monitoring


Users can view the performance data of NEs, interfaces, IP links, Layer 2 links,
static tunnels, dynamic tunnels, and test cases on the same network by network
group. In addition, users can perform various tests on a network, such as a UDP
jitter test and FTP ping test, to evaluate the quality of networks and services and
analyze the correlation between the two.
● Create a network group.
Users can group the monitoring instances of resources of different types on
the same network according to customized rules, such as an area-based rule
or service-based rule. This facilitates performance data browsing and
comparison.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 115


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

● Analyze interface performance trends.


When network interface indicators are set, a performance trend graph of the
current time or of the past 12 hours can be generated for analysis.
● View the results of network monitoring instances.
Users can view the results of network monitoring instances to obtain
information about network-related indicators, evaluate network performance,
and analyze the correlation between indicators and network performance.

TCA Threshold Setting


NCE allows users to set thresholds for performance indicators using a threshold
crossing alert (TCA) monitoring template. When creating a performance statistics
task, users can use a data monitoring template to collect performance data, use a
TCA monitoring template to set the upper and lower thresholds, and use a
scheduled policy to collect performance data in a specified period or based on a
repetition period. NCE generates a TCA when the performance indicator value
exceeds a defined threshold in the TCA monitoring template, informing users of
network performance deterioration.

Database Size Calculator


NCE can calculate the required database space based on the number of collection
instances (number of interface resources), collection period, lifecycle, and the
number of indicators of each instance. In addition, NCE can calculate the
performance data lifecycle based on the number of collection instances (number
of interface resources), collection period, number of indicators of each instance,
and available database space.

7.3.1.4 Inventory Management


NCE provides the functions to collect, query, and export network-wide physical
resources (including virtual NEs and third-party NEs) and service resources. The
resources can be exported to XLS, XLSX, TXT, HTML, or CSV files. This helps users
obtain resource information on the entire network in a convenient, quick, and
accurate manner to support service planning, routine maintenance, NE warranty,
and network reconstruction.

● Physical resources (such as equipment rooms, NEs, ports, optical/electrical


modules, and passive devices) and logical resources on the entire network can
be managed or maintained in unified and hierarchical mode. Users can easily
view and export multi-layer attributes of various types of resources. Users can
also customize filter criteria to query data on the live network, improving
resource maintenance efficiency.

7.3.1.5 NE Software Management


NE Software Management is used to manage NE data and upgrade or downgrade
NE software. Managing NE data includes data saving and backup as well as policy
management. Upgrading or downgrading NE software includes loading, activation,
restoration, task management, and software library management. To ensure
security, use SFTP for data transmission between NCE and NEs.

The main functions are listed as follows:

● Saving: After the configuration is complete, the configuration data is saved in


the flash drive or hard disks of NEs so that the data will not be lost once the
system is restarted. The following saving methods are supported:
– Manual
– Automatic (by creating a task)
– Automatic (by creating a policy)

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 123


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

● Backup: Backs up NE data (such as configuration data or databases) to


storage devices other than NEs. The backup data is used for restoring NE
data. If NCE has permission to manage the NE and no loading, backup, or
restoration operation is being performed on the NE, the NE accepts the
backup request and transfers the contents to be backed up to the backup
path on the NCE server through the file transfer protocol. The contents can
also be transferred to the client or to the third-party server. The number of
backup files depends on available space in the backup path. The following
backup methods are supported:
– Manual
– Automatic (by creating a task)
– Automatic (by creating a policy)
● Policy management: Backup policies enable automatic NE backup (periodic or
triggered) for routine NE maintenance. The policy method is used periodically,
and is mainly used for frequent operations, such as data saving and backup.
Users can select a policy based on the scenarios at the sites.
● Loading: Software is loaded for NE upgrade. If NCE has permission to manage
NE upgrade and no other loading, backup, or restoration operations are being
performed on an NE, the NE will accept the loading request. NCE then
transmits the contents to be loaded to the NE by using the transfer protocol.
The following loading methods are supported:
– Creating a task for automatic loading
– Creating an automatic upgrade task for automatic loading
● Activating: New NE software needs to be activated by restarting NEs. If NCE
has permission to manage NE upgrade and no other loading, backup, or
restoration operations are being performed on an NE, the NE will accept the
activation request. The following activation methods are supported:
– Creating an automatic upgrade task for automatic activation
● Restoration: An NE can be restored using the backup NE data. If NCE has
permission to manage NE upgrade and no other loading, backup, or
restoration operations are being performed on an NE, the NE will accept the
restoration request. NCE then transmits the contents to be restored to the NE
by using the transfer protocol. The following restoration methods are
supported:
– Manually restoring the data
– Creating a task for automatic restoration
● Task management: NCE encapsulates all operations into tasks. By creating an
upgrade task or a downgrade task for software or a patch, users can upgrade
or downgrade the software or patch in one-click mode or at the scheduled
time. The task method is not periodic. It is mainly used for non-frequent
operations, such as upgrade. Users can select a task based on the scenarios at
the sites.
● Software repository management: NE software is managed in a repository. For
example, users can upload NE software from the NCE client or NCE server to
the software repository for centralized management and efficient loading.
● NE license management: allows users to query, apply for, install, and adjust
NE licenses (in case of capacity or a server change). The license controls the
validity period or functions of an NE. Therefore, users need to view the license
status and change the expired license. Otherwise, services will be affected.

● NE upgrade wizard: During the upgrade preparation, the wizard provides


guidance through the process of creating an upgrade project and upgrade
tasks. During the upgrade, functions such as filtering and search, status
statistics, and batch operations are optimized to provide more user-friendly
upgrade operations.

7.3.2 IP Network Management

7.3.2.1 IP NE Management

Basic Capabilities
NCE is able to manage the following series of IP NEs: PTN, NE, ATN, CX, service
gateway, R/AR router, switch, voice gateway, security, and iCache, covering VRPv5-
based, VRPv8-based, and YANG NEs.

NOTE

If users need to configure and manage BGP private network instances in the YANG NE
management process, enable the YANG management mode (bgp yang-mode enable) on
devices first. For details, see the command description provided by devices.

PnP
PnP helps engineers remotely commission and deliver basic configurations to a
large number of NEs at the same time, freeing engineers from going to sites and
greatly improving the deployment efficiency.

Usage Scenarios

PnP is used for making scripts and bringing NEs online during deployment. It
provides a rich set of predefined templates, where users need to set only a few
parameters for generating basic NE configuration scripts. Remote DCN
commissioning eliminates the need for planning before NE power-on, and NEs are
automatically added to NCE for management.

During deployment, PnP is mainly used for remotely commissioning newly added
NEs and bringing them online so that NCE can manage these NEs. PnP delivers
basic configurations to NEs in different networking scenarios to complete batch
NE deployment.

Automatically Available DCN

● PnP based on network planning/design (tools): Automatically available DCN


is leveraged to automatically establish connections between NCE and NEs and
generate scripts based on plans.
● Tool-free PnP: Network planning is performed after devices go online, and
scenario-specific custom templates are offered to facilitate planning.
a. Custom templates are offered for the L2+L3 and HVPN service scenarios.
b. Management IP addresses, NNI IP addresses, and IGP parameters are
automatically allocated to online devices.

Custom Deployment Solutions

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 125


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

Users can flexibly customize a group of deployment templates (including


parameter IDs and expressions) based on the site scenarios and typical
configurations.
● Based on deployment templates, users export and fill in a service planning
table. They can import planned NE configurations (such as NE addresses and
interface IP addresses) in batches and adjust the sequence of parameters in
the planning table.
● Users can also customize scenario-specific deployment templates by
importing device command scripts and correlating parameters across device
role templates.
● Basic and service configuration scripts are generated at the same time. With
the DCN online function, configurations are delivered instantly when devices
go online.

IP Network Assurance
NCE provides various network assurance functions, such as health check,
intelligent troubleshooting based on path visualization, automatic locating of top
N typical alarms, and network-level alarm correlation. This greatly reduces skill
requirements for fault locating, shortening the average fault locating time from
more than 1 hour to 10 minutes.
IP NE health check: This check is performed automatically so that it takes only
seconds to check a single NE (including its optical power and IP address).
Engineers no longer need to check configurations manually, resulting in a
significant increase in the check efficiency while also reducing the potential faults
linked with inappropriate basic configurations.
PTN network health check: Network running indicators are centralized on one
page where users can compare the current and historical PTN network statuses
during routine maintenance to find and rectify exceptions in advance.
Intelligent troubleshooting based on path visualization: NCE supports
protection path discovery, covering five protection schemes (primary/secondary
PW, VPN FRR, VRRP, E-APS, and TE HSB) on the live network. It can also discover
and display primary and backup paths to facilitate the locating of faults related to
service path switching. In addition, NCE clearly shows specific fault locations in
hierarchical paths (at the service, tunnel, route, and link layers). It is also able to
discover paths in the VPLS and HVPLS scenarios and visualize path
troubleshooting. The diagnosis process is automatically determined based on MBB
scenarios and fault types (such as interruption, deterioration, and clock switching).
The 300 check items cover key MBB features, improving accuracy and efficiency.
Automatic locating of top N typical alarms: For top N alarms, NCE
automatically packages detection means, thereby providing one-click diagnosis
and handling suggestions.
Network-level alarm correlation: By analyzing the alarms reported by IP NEs
within a period, NCE identifies root and correlative alarms based on rules and
displays them to maintenance personnel.

● Composite service functions:
Composite services fall into three categories: custom, H-VPLS, and
PWE3+MBGP L3VPN. Their creation methods are different.
– Custom: Custom services include VPLS+PWE3, VPLS+L3VPN,
PWE3+L3VPN, Option A VPLS, Option A PWE3, Option A L3VPN, and
PWE3+PWE3. Users need to manually create or select individual services,
and add connection points to combine them into a composite service.
– H-VPLS: Users only need to add related nodes (such as VPLS, PWE3, or
PW switching nodes). NCE then automatically creates an H-VPLS
composite service.
– PWE3+MBGP L3VPN: Users only need to set a gateway IP address, select
an MBGP L3VPN service, and add a PWE3 service. NCE then
automatically creates a PWE3+L3VPN composite service.
● CBR service functions:
– Configure CBR services.

Service Discovery
The E2E service or tunnel data deployed on the network can be restored to NCE
through service discovery so that these services can be managed in an E2E
manner. This not only saves time but also avoids the impact of misoperation on
the original services.

● Static tunnels as well as static L3VPN, VPLS, PWE3, aggregation, and


composite services can be automatically discovered based on preset policies.
● Dynamic tunnels, EVPN services, and MBGP L3VPN services can be
automatically discovered based on service templates.

360-Degree Service View


This view makes service status and service object relationships clear and visible to
users. Specifically, it associates services with tunnels, and tunnels with routes. It
also clearly presents the hierarchical object and bearing relationships, which
facilitates fault locating and troubleshooting.

7.4 Service Provisioning

7.4.1 Network Slicing

7.4.1.1 Background
Driven by ever-increasing mobile and fixed network service requirements, carriers
may run different services on the same network. To prevent services from taking
bandwidth from others, carriers want to isolate service bandwidth. The transport
network carries various services with distinct traffic characteristics. For example, it
is difficult to assess the bandwidth of individuals' fixed broadband services; bursty
Internet traffic, in particular, requires high bandwidth and is insensitive to latency
(up to 50 ms). Enterprise services — some are latency-sensitive, some are not —
generally have clear Service Level Agreements (SLAs) regarding bandwidth and
latency. For latency-sensitive and latency-insensitive services on the mobile
transport network, one distinct difference is convergence ratio.

To address this issue, Network Slicing uses FlexE or channelized interfaces to


divide one physical network into multiple slices. These slices achieve hard
bandwidth isolation and deploy services independently, enabling customers to use
one network for multiple purposes.

7.4.1.2 Feature Introduction


Network slicing needs to streamline adaptation interfaces among usage scenarios,
network functions, and network resources, and support on-demand customization
and provisioning. For each type of service, resources are exclusive, but they
actually share the same physical infrastructure. This ensures the economies of
scale, improves the utilization of physical resources, reduces CAPEX and OPEX, and
enriches network operating models.

Network slicing provides tailored network functions and performance assurance


for specific scenarios, achieving on-demand networking. Network slicing has the
following highlights:

● Secure: Network resources are isolated among slices. Overload, congestion,


and configuration adjustment in one slice will not affect other slices. This
improves network security, reliability, and robustness.
● Dynamic: Network slices can dynamically allocate resources to meet
spontaneous service requirements.
● Elastic: Network slices may be elastically and flexibly scaled (for example,
through convergence and reconstruction) to adapt to dynamic changes in
user quantities and service requirements.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 132


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

● Optimal: Network functions can be tailored and flexibly deployed based on


service scenarios to achieve optimal service processes and data routes.
The network slicing solution of NCE uses FlexE or channel subinterface technology
to slice the bearer network in an E2E manner. NCE can uniformly orchestrate and
manage network resources and support visualized slice creation, management,
query, and cancellation. Simplified slice creation and one-click scale-up/down
further improve network O&M efficiency and experience.

Table 7-23 Slice features


Feature Description

Slice deployment FlexE interfaces are supported.


MTN channels (that is, FlexE channels) and
MTN FG channels are supported.
Slices can be deployed over channel
subinterfaces embedded in FlexE (including

Slices can be deployed over channel/
channelized subinterfaces (including Eth-Trunk
channel subinterfaces) (PTN devices and
routers).
On-demand slices are supported (flexible sub-
channels on routers).
The entire network or any subnet can be

7.5 Analysis and Assurance

7.5.1 Network Performance Analysis


This section describes the features provided by Network Performance Analysis.

7.5.1.1 Telemetry Collection


Telemetry is a technology developed to fast collect data from physical or virtual
devices remotely. Devices periodically send information such as interface traffic
statistics, CPU data, and memory data to the collector in push mode. Compared
with the traditional pull mode (question-answer interaction), the push mode
provides more real-time and high-speed data collection.

Compared with other collection methods, Telemetry collection can be used on


larger networks and completed in a shorter period.

TWAMP Test Description


Basic Concepts

TWAMP: Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol, used to test the network quality
indicators such as jitter, packet loss rate, and delay from the source to the
destination.

Principles

The TWAMP test process on NCE is as follows:

● An SNC-capable Huawei NE or PTN NE can function as the TWAMP test client


and controller to start a test and collect statistics.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 183


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

● A TWAMP-capable device can function as the TWAMP server, which responds


to test packets only.

Table 7-33 Indicator description

Indicator Description

Two way Rate of the number of discarded packets to the total number of
Packet packets transmitted within a period.
Loss Ratio

Two way Time used by a packet to be transmitted from the source end to
Delay the sink end.

Two way Difference between two consecutive delays for packets to reach
Jitter the same sink end.

One-way Rate of lost packets to transmitted packets on a link from the


Packet source end to the sink end or from the sink end to the source end
Loss Ratio within a period.

One-way Time required from sending a packet by the source end to


Delay receiving the packet by the sink end or from sending an
acknowledgment packet by the sink end to receiving the
acknowledgment packet by the source end.

One-way Delay change from the source end to the sink end or from the sink
Jitter end to the source end.

MOS A test to obtain users' view of the network quality. The MOS
provides a numerical indication of the perceived quality from the
users' perspective of received media and is expressed as a single
number in the range of 0 to 5, where 0 indicates the lowest
perceived quality, and 5 indicates the highest perceived quality.
The voice quality is determined based on E-Model calculation.

R-Value A 100-score system to measure the voice quality based on E-Model


calculation, considering the network impairment factors. The R-
Value is a number ranging from 0 to 100, where 0 indicates the
lowest voice quality, and 100 indicates the highest voice quality.

Error Number of error packets detected during data transmission.

● Supporting one-time test, continuous test, and large buffer test


– One-time test only supports real-time collection and viewing of
performance data. If a probe functions as the test source, TWAMP test
results are collected at an interval of 30s by default. If an NE functions as
the test source, TWAMP test results are collected at an interval of 15s by
default.
– Continuous test supports test period configuration as well as collection
and viewing of historical performance data.
– Large buffer test is a high-precision TWAMP test initiated by a PTN 7900
to test performance (packet loss rate and number of lost packets) of a
device transmitting heavy traffic. A PTN 7900 supports only one large
buffer test at a time, with the packet sending interval of 0.1 ms and
sending period of less than 3 minutes. Loop detection can be enabled
only when the destination is a Huawei PTN device.
● Supporting TWAMP payload check parameter configuration for PTN 7900
V100R007C10
If a PTN 7900 V100R007C10 serves as the source of a TWAMP test, four types
of payloads (0x00, 0xff, 0x55, and 0xaa) can be configured. In this case, the
test result will contain the number of error packets.
● Supporting unified alarm management
For various indicators, users can set thresholds for different severities of
alarms. If the values of network or service indicators exceed the preset
thresholds during the TWAMP test, alarms are generated.
● Exporting TWAMP performance data through the performance text NBI
The data dictionary is provided, allowing TWAMP performance data to be
exported through the performance text NBI for interconnection with a third-
party system.

7.5.1.11 ICMP Quality Monitoring


NCE can proactively send packets to simulate an ICMP jitter test, which helps
users obtain network quality in real time and demarcate faults. A TWAMP test is
preferentially used for quality monitoring. If this test is not supported, use an
ICMP test.

Typical Networking
ICMP tests apply to various scenarios and feature easy deployment. NCE brings
the following benefits to carriers by working with NEU200s to perform ICMP jitter
tests:

● Monitors base station quality in an E2E and real-time manner to obtain base
station E2E quality as well as quality on the wireless and transmission sides.
● Monitors the link quality of important base stations in real time to obtain
network quality of important sites.
● Assists network fault demarcation and locating, including demarcation of
faults to the wireless side or transmission side.

Figure 7-23 shows the typical networking schemes.

and viewing of historical performance data.
● Supporting unified alarm management
For various indicators, users can set thresholds for different severities of
alarms. If the values of network or service indicators exceed the preset
thresholds during the ICMP jitter test, alarms are generated.

7.5.1.12 Trace Test


NCE supports a trace test, during which the hop-by-hop path from the source to
the destination can be detected on a specific network, helping users detect or
restore a service path.

Function Overview
During a trace test, packets with different time to live (TTL) are sent to the
destination to determine the IP address, packet loss rate, and delay of each hop
on the path.
The following tables describe the related indicators, source and destination ends,
and version mapping of trace tests.

Table 7-40 Trace test indicators


Indicator Description

Packet loss Ratio of the number of lost packets on each hop to the total
rate number of packets transmitted on the forwarding path from the
source to the destination within a period of time.

Delay Time required for each intermediate device to respond when a


packet is sent along the forwarding path from the source device to
the destination device.

To learn the quality of a service path, users can view the historical
performance data and check the IP address, packet loss rate, and average
two-way delay of each hop.
● Supporting periodical testing
The test period can be set to 5min, 10min, 15min, 20min, or 30min to
facilitate periodical tests of a service path.

7.5.1.13 Network Path Restoration and Auxiliary Fault Demarcation

7.5.1.13.1 ATN+CX Network Path Restoration and Auxiliary Fault Demarcation


In ATN+CX networking mode, alarms displayed in the physical topology trigger
path restoration from the source interface to the destination interface. After hop-
by-hop diagnosis is performed for the restored paths, the TWAMP/ICMP indicators
(delay, jitter, and packet loss rate) of devices are obtained for auxiliary fault
demarcation, helping O&M personnel learn the alarm conditions and locate faults.

Function Overview
NCE utilizes the path restoration function triggered by TWAMP tests and ICMP
jitter tests to help carriers achieve the following:

● Discover and restore hop-by-hop service paths from the alarm source to the
alarm destination.
● Based on the restored service paths, read indicators of existing or on-demand
TWAMP tests or ICMP jitter tests hop by hop; implement hop-by-hop fault
diagnosis based on the test results.

7.5.2 Network Path Optimization

7.5.2.1 Background
With the development of networks, services occupy more and more network
resources, and the network becomes increasingly complex and large. The
traditional MPLS TE technology cannot meet the requirements of the live network.

MPLS TE enables the establishment of label switched path (LSP) tunnels with
specified paths based on reserved resources and preempts bandwidth resources of
LSPs with lower priorities to control traffic paths when resources are insufficient.
Although MPLS TE substantially improves bandwidth resource efficiency, it is
difficult to plan paths in a large topology. In addition, MPLS TE path computation
depends on Interior Gateway Protocol Traffic Engineering (IGP TE) topology
information, but IGP TE floods only the topology information of IGP domains and
consequently cannot compute or establish end-to-end (E2E) TE tunnels across IGP
domains or even autonomous systems (ASs).

In addition, the constrained shortest path first (CSPF) algorithm used for MPLS TE
path computation can only be determined by the source nodes of tunnels, and this
distributed computation and management approach cannot coordinate bandwidth
resources, leading to problems such as bandwidth resource waste and even tunnel
establishment failure.

Network Path Optimization computes the optimal E2E forwarding paths and
optimizes the paths as required. It centrally configures and manages network
topology information to leverage the full potential of network resources.

7.5.2.2 Feature Introduction


Network Path Optimization is a technology dedicated to service path optimization
and therefore plays an important role in network service quality assurance.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 209


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

Network Path Optimization has the following technical advantages:


● Visualized global tunnel topology
Network Path Optimization enables visualized monitoring of the entire
network topology and monitors network-wide link bandwidth utilization
based on the collected traffic statistics. This topology allows administrators to
detect traffic path changes in real time and optimize traffic accordingly to
prevent network faults.
● Centralized global multi-domain path computation
The controller establishes BGP peers with routers to collect the topologies of
multiple ASs. After combining and processing these topologies, it computes
inter-AS tunnel paths based on one uniform topology. It can also interconnect
with other AS controllers to collect the topologies of multiple ASs in order to
establish inter-AS service paths. Centralized path computation enables
collaborative management of network resources, maximizes network
bandwidth utilization, and reduces the bandwidth resource conflicts caused by
distributed computing.
● Intelligent maintenance during a fixed period of time
During a maintenance window, traffic automatically bypasses maintained
nodes or links. After the maintenance is complete, traffic switches back to the
original paths. If faulty nodes or links exist, traffic can also automatically
bypass these nodes or links.
● Multiconstraint-based path computation for various tunnels
– Path computation is available for both traditional services (RSVP-TE) and
other types of tunnels, including SR-TE (SR-MPLS TE), SR Policy (SR-MPLS
TE Policy and SRv6 Policy), and service paths (inter-AS tunnel over SR
Policy). For the new technology SRv6 Policy, Network Path Optimization
supports both unequal cost multipath (UCMP) load balancing based on
multiple segments and DSCP-based traffic steering to provide
differentiated SLA assurance for applications. The segments that UCMP
depends on are dynamically computed by the path computation unit and
can be split based on service requirements to ensure service quality.
– Multiconstraint-based path computation refers to the act of setting
primary/backup path, availability, and disjoint tunnel constraints to
maintain high network reliability; (2) setting explicit/excluded paths, co-
routing, path pinning, switchback, and other constraints to maintain high
network controllability; or (3) setting reserved bandwidth, real-time
bandwidth, delay, and other constraints to satisfy SLAs.
– Network Path Optimization also supports SRv6 Policy group deployment.
Bandwidth is reserved so that the planned SRv6 Policies can be quickly
deployed upon network changes.
● Higher packet processing efficiency thanks to generalized SRv6
Generalized SRv6 (G-SRv6) is an SRv6-compatible SRH compression solution.
SRH compression helps reduce the overheads of SRv6 packet headers. In
addition, G-SRv6 SIDs and conventional SRv6 SIDs can be programmed in the
same SRH, enabling SRv6 to smoothly evolve from non-compression solutions
to a compression solution.
A complete SID is 128 bits long and consists of three parts: Locator, Function,
and Arguments (optional). Locator can be divided into B (prefix) and N (node
ID). B is redundant because it is a common prefix of SIDs on an SRv6 network.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 210


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

If B is placed in a shared location, N and Function constitute shorter


generalized SIDs (G-SIDs) for forwarding packets, thereby enhancing SRv6
packet processing performance and facilitating large-scale SRv6 deployment.
● Slice-centric optimization
During optimization, you can specify a slice to optimize paths for tunnels
within the slice. The paths of tunnels in other slices will remain unchanged.
● Multiple optimization mechanisms
Network Path Optimization provides different trigger mechanisms for
different usage scenarios to ensure optimal service paths. The automatic
optimization mechanism provides the automatic approval function. You can
determine whether to directly deliver path computation results by enabling or
disabling automatic approval. Manual approval is required if automatic
optimization is disabled, automatic approval is disabled, or manual
optimization is used.

Table 7-53 Optimization mechanisms


Optimization Description
Mechanism

Automatic Automatic optimization and automatic approval


optimization If a network is too large for manual optimization, use
automatic optimization (triggered periodically or upon link
threshold crossing) and automatic approval. The path
computation results are directly delivered, reducing
manual intervention and OPEX. However, this mechanism
is risky. Exercise caution when using this mechanism.

Automatic optimization and manual approval


Path computation results can be delivered only after being
manually approved. This mechanism allows you to have
more control over the network.

Manual Local optimization


optimization When a link is congested, you can optimize the specified
tunnel or link.

Global optimization
If traffic imbalance exists on a large number of tunnels,
you can perform global optimization to optimize network-
wide service paths.

● Flexible selection of optimization policies


Optimization aims to maximize network throughput and minimize path costs,
that is, to make more services run in shorter and lower-weight paths. In
practice, however, some services are sensitive to delay. Therefore, the delay
attribute is provided for such services. Considering that some links may
become faulty frequently, link availability is also introduced to ensure that
services are running over the links with the minimum fault rate.

7.5.3 VPN Service Assurance

7.5.3.1 Trends and Status Quo


This section describes the trend and O&M status quo of VPN services.

Service Trend
New technologies, such as SRv6, are ready for commercial use. Agile provisioning
of VPN services requires intelligent diagnosis and in-line monitoring in VPN
scenarios to implement SLA quality visualization.

O&M Status
VPN services cannot be measured hop by hop, and the service status in the fault
occurrence period cannot be played back. As a result, it is difficult to accurately
demarcate faults. The fault locating period is as long as several days or even
weeks, and the efficiency is low.

7.5.3.2 Solution Overview


Based on technologies such as In-situ Flow Information Telemetry (IFIT), Two-Way
Active Measurement Protocol (TWAMP), and Y.1731, NCE meets the service level
agreement (SLA) assurance and O&M requirements of VPN services, implements
proactive and visualized SLA awareness of services, and proactively and quickly
demarcates and locates faults, ensuring good user experiences.

Measurement Technology
From the perspective of technologies, the existing network performance
measurement technologies in the industry each have defects, so none of them can

meet the requirements of VPN networks on measurement precision, hop-by-hop


measurement, service scenario, and performance. Based on the advantages and
disadvantages of the existing performance measurement technologies, Huawei
launches IFIT. IFIT is an extension to in-band OAM (iOAM) while integrating the IP
flow performance measurement (IP FPM) and RFC 8321 coloring technologies to
directly measure packets. IFIT cooperates with Telemetry as well as unified
management, control, computation, and visualization to enable real-time

IFIT Process
This part uses the IP RAN scenario as an example to describe the IFIT process. The
IFIT process in the SPN scenario is similar. Users need to start the IFIT E2E
measurement on the first node of a VPN (for example, PE1 in the path PE1 ->
PE2). PE1 inserts the IFIT E2E measurement header into the flow from VRF100 to
PE2. PE1 and PE2 report the measurement results separately, and NCE calculates
and displays the E2E SLA of the service. For services that deteriorate in quality, the
system automatically triggers the IFIT trace hop-by-hop measurement mode on
the first node (for example, PE1) of the service. PE1 inserts the IFIT trace hop-by-
hop measurement header into the flow from VRF100 to PE2, and then hop-by-hop

7.5.3.4 Technical Principles


This section describes the technical principles of performance measurement
technologies (IFIT, TWAMP, and Y.1731) and the congestion view solution.

7.5.3.4.1 IFIT
As IP services pose increasingly strict requirements on committed and
differentiated SLAs, Huawei proposes the innovative IFIT solution by integrating
the advantages of all existing performance measurement technologies. For
example, it combines telemetry (a seconds-level data collection protocol), a data
analysis platform, and AI algorithms (for mass faults) to visualize service SLAs in
real time (precision improved from the link level to the service level), aggregate
mass poor-QoS faults (quantities reduced from thousands to tens), and fast
demarcate and locate faults (time shortened from hours to minutes). In addition,
this solution allows on-demand fault playback. These effectively improve IP service
O&M efficiency.

7.5.3.4.1.1 Measurement Mechanisms


This section describes how the Congestion View app uses IFIT to measure packet
loss and delay, and detect base station interruption.

IFIT Packet Header


The IFIT packet header encapsulates the packet loss and delay measurement flags
and a measurement mode flag (specifying the E2E or trace mode) to measure the
packet loss and delay of service packets in E2E or hop-by-hop mode.

Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

Table 7-57 Components in the IFIT packet header


Component Description

Flow ● Flow ID (20 bits): uniquely identifies a service flow. This ID


instruction must be unique across the measurement domain. NEs
header (FIH) identify flows based on flow IDs.
● L flag: packet loss measurement flag. It can be set to 0 or 1.
If it is set to 0 for packets in a measurement period, it will
be set to 1 for packets in the next period. For example, if the
number of L flags collected at the previous hop is 10 but
drops to 9 at the next hop in a measurement period, it is
considered that one packet is lost.
● D flag: delay measurement flag. The value 1 indicates that
delay measurement is required, whereas the value 0
indicates that delay measurement is not required.
● R: reserved
● R/S flag: If the FII label is not the last in the stack, the S
(bottom-of-stack) flag is carried. If the FII label is the last in
the stack, the R (reserved) flag is carried, and the default
value is 1.
● Header type indicator (HTI): an 8-bit FIH. The 8 bits are
described as follows:
– 0: reserved
– 1: basic E2E FIH
– 2: basic hop-by-hop FIH
– 3: extended E2E FIH (for FIEH)
– 4: extended hop-by-hop FIH (for FIEH)
– 5: packet-by-packet delay FIH (E2E), supported by SPN
V100R012C00SPC700 and later versions
– 6: packet-by-packet delay FIH (hop by hop), supported by
SPN V100R012C00SPC700 and later versions
– 7: reserved

Mechanism of Packet Loss Measurement


Packet loss measurement refers to the act of calculating the difference between
the number of packets entering a network and the number of packets leaving the
network within a measurement period.
1. The ingress sets the L flag to 0 or 1 by period (the two values are used
alternatively between consecutive periods). The forwarding chip at each hop
counts packets within a period.
The measurement period on the receive end is T – 1/3T to T + 2/3T, which is
2/3T later than that on the transmit end. This prevents out-of-order packets
from affecting packet measurement and ensures that the number of packets
in each period is correctly collected. For example, in the following figure, a
green packet is missing at T[0] but received at T[0] + 1/3T. The delay (1/3T) is

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 221


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

within the designed range (2/3T); therefore, the packet, though out of order,
can still be counted at T[0].
2. Each node sends their counting results to NCE through telemetry.
3. NCE compares the packet counts of hops. If the count decreases at a point, it
determines that packet loss occurs.

Mechanism of Delay Measurement (Sampling)


In IFIT, delay measurement refers to the act of sampling packets on NEs and
recording the times when the packets are sent and received.
1. The ingress sets the D flag to 1 in only one packet in each period. The
forwarding chip of each node records the arrival and departure timestamps of
the sampled packets.
2. Each node sends their recorded results to NCE through telemetry.
3. NCE calculates the delay of each hop based on the received data.

Mechanism of Delay Measurement (Packet-by-Packet)


Packet-by-packet delay measurement efficiently measures the delay of each
service.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 222


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

1. The ingress does not report time. Other nodes use telemetry to report the
time of each packet to NCE based on the measurement period.
2. NCE calculates the delay of each node and aggregates the result at an
interval of 1 minute. For example, if the measurement period is 10 seconds,
the maximum value of the six maximum delays and the average value of six
average delays are used for the corresponding minute.

Mechanism of Base Station Flow Interruption Detection


A base station flow is a set of packets with the same source IP address, source
mask, sink IP address, sink mask, and flow ID.

Base station flow interruption is detected based on the number of lost packets
and the changes of flow rates. If the maximum packet loss rate of a flow is 100%
and the flow rate drops below the configured threshold (20% by default) after
several suppression periods, the flow is considered interrupted.

Mechanism of Base Station Interruption Detection


A base station is considered interrupted if all flows using the base station as the
source or sink are interrupted.

Base station flow interruption detection depends on complete IFIT measurement


results from devices. It applies to individual base station flows. If all flows of a
base station are interrupted, that is, the base station is interrupted, IFIT alone
cannot determine whether the base station is interrupted. To address this, the
Congestion View app combines IFIT with OAM. It initiates OAM detection from the
NPE to the base station to locate the fault point.

Taking the SPN scenario as an example, the detailed process is as follows:

1. IFIT is used to collect base station inventory data and automatically identify
potentially interrupted base stations based on the following criteria:
a. The maximum flow rate is 0.
b. There is no flow.
c. There is only a signaling flow, and its packet loss rate is 100% or invalid.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 223


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

2. Potentially interrupted base stations are clustered by UPE, SPE, and NPE to
generate a potential mass interruption fault.
3. NPEs and base station IP addresses are selected from the potential mass fault.
Each of the selected NPEs initiates OAM detection to base stations. If the
detection fails, the mass interruption fault exists in the base stations.
4. Initiate segment-by-segment OAM detection from the NPEs to the base
stations to demarcate the fault.

7.5.3.4.1.2 Measurement Modes


IFIT is a technology that measures the packet loss and delay of service flows. It
aims to obtain the packet loss rate and delay when the service flows pass through
a transport network. That is, it measures the packet loss rate and delay at the
ingress and egress of the transport network and then calculates the target
performance indicators. Performance indicators can be directly measured on each
NE to obtain the per-hop performance indicators of service packets. However, such
process is at a performance cost. If only E2E network indicators are needed,
network indicators do not need to be measured hop by hop, reducing performance
consumption. To sum up, IFIT has two measurement modes: E2E and hop-by-hop
measurement.

?.1. E2E Measurement Mode


The E2E measurement mode of IFIT applies to routine proactive O&M, which
measures performance at the ingress and egress of service flows. NCE aggregates
and analyzes the measurement results to calculate E2E service SLAs, and displays
the SLAs in reports or visual charts.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 224


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

Implementation Details
1. To achieve accurate measurement, high-precision time synchronization within
microseconds is deployed at both the ingress and egress to ensure that the
packet loss measurement periods of the ingress and egress of the E2E flow
match and the delay measurement periods are synchronous.
2. Global IFIT monitoring, telemetry subscription, and base station flow
monitoring are configured on NCE.
3. NEs identify service flows, record the number of packets and timestamps at
the ingress and egress based on packet or measurement flag, and measure
packet loss, delay, and real-time traffic to obtain E2E SLAs.
4. NEs periodically report packet loss and delay statistics to NCE through
telemetry.
5. NCE periodically calculates the packet loss and delay at the ingress and egress
of service flows. In addition, it displays the packet loss, delay, and real-time
traffic in the base station flow, data flow, and signaling flow reports based on
different periods.
– One-way link delay = Time of packet receiving on the egress – Time of
packet sending by the ingress
– Number of lost packets = Number of packets received by the ingress –
Number of packets sent by the egress
– Visualization through network-wide E2E base station flow, data flow, and
signaling flow reports

?.2. Hop-by-Hop (Trace) Measurement Mode


When any E2E indicator exceeds the threshold, NCE automatically enables IFIT
hop-by-hop measurement for fault diagnosis. (You can also enable this mode
manually.) When a service flow passes an NE, the NE uses telemetry to collect and
report data of each hop in seconds. NCE calculates indicators such as the delay
and packet loss rate of each hop of the service flow. If any indicator of a hop
exceeds the specified threshold, the hop is considered faulty. In this way, the faulty
NE or link can be located.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 225


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

Implementation Details
1. To achieve accurate measurement, high-precision time synchronization is
deployed on all nodes to ensure that the packet loss measurement periods of
all nodes through which a service flow passes match and the delay
measurement periods are synchronous.
2. For base station flows, to reduce the impact on performance, a hop-by-hop
monitoring policy is configured on NCE to identify threshold-crossing flows
and start hop-by-hop monitoring for them. An IFIT packet header is added to
threshold-crossing flows to enable NCE to learn the hop-by-hop path of each
real-time service flow and enable hop-by-hop diagnosis. For PTN static flows,
you can specify the IP 5-tuple (source IP address, sink IP address, source port,
sink port, and protocol) to create a PTN static flow monitoring instance and
enable hop-by-hop measurement.
3. At the ingress and egress of each NE through which a service flow passes, the
numbers of packets and timestamps are recorded based on packet or
measurement flag, and packet loss, delay, and real-time traffic are measured
to obtain the real-time SLAs of each NE and link on the service path.
4. NEs periodically report the packet loss and delay statistics of each NE, port,
and link to NCE through the Telemetry protocol.
5. NCE periodically calculates the packet loss and delay of each NE port based
on the hop-by-hop path of the threshold-crossing flow. In addition, it displays
the hop-by-hop path, packet loss, and delay information of base station flows
by period.
– One-way link delay = Time of packet receiving on the local node – Time
of packet sending by the previous node
– Number of lost packets = Number of received packets on the local node –

diagnosis rules, fault locations and possible causes can be quickly located.
In addition, the transport network can prove its innocence and the 24-
hour SLA data of the last 7 days can be played back.

7.5.3.4.1.3 Mass Fault Aggregation Algorithm


When a node on the network is faulty, all service flows passing through the node
become poor-QoS. In this case, performing hop-by-hop diagnosis on all poor-QoS
service flows will consume a large number of performance resources, which is,
however, unnecessary. As such, the Congestion View app uses the mass fault
aggregation algorithm to calculate the similarity among poor-QoS flow paths and
among poor-QoS parameter features in a period. Higher similarities indicate a
higher probability that the faults are caused by the same root cause. If the
algorithm threshold is reached, the faults are aggregated into one incident.

7.5.3.4.2 TWAMP
TWAMP is a standard measurement protocol defined in RFC 6038. It is compatible
with most routers and base stations on live networks. TWAMP measures IP

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 227


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

performance indicators such as the packet loss, delay, and jitter of links to monitor
network service quality in real time and facilitate fault demarcation.

Measurement Mechanism

1. NCE selects two TWAMP-capable devices (device A as the sender and device B
as the reflector) to create a TWAMP test case and initiates IP performance
test.
a. Sender: initiates a test, collects data, and collects statistics. The TWAMP
sender can be an NEU200, IP device, or PTN device.
b. Reflector: only replies test packets to the sender. The TWAMP reflector
can be an NEU200, base station, IP device, PTN device, or destination
device IP address.
2. Device A initiates a test session to device B.
3. Device B reflects the test session to device A.
4. NCE collects indicators in processes 2 and 3 from device A and calculates two-
way performance indicators.

Fault Demarcation and Locating Principles


1. Test case creation: A probe is deployed on the core network as the TWAMP
sender to send test packets and collect data. A base station and a CSG work
as the TWAMP reflector and respond to test packets.
2. Indicator collection: The probe collects performance indicators between the
core-side GW and CSG and between the core-side GW and base station in real
time, measures the packet loss rate, delay, and jitter of links on the transport
network and transport network to wireless segment, and reports the
indicators to NCE.
– Two-way packet loss rate: ratio of lost packets on a link to the total
number of transmitted packets over a period of time.
– Two-way delay: time used by a packet to be transmitted from the source
end to the sink end.
– Two-way jitter: difference between two consecutive delays for packets to
reach the same sink end.
3. Fault demarcation: NCE periodically calculates the average two-way packet
loss rate, two-way delay, and two-way jitter. Based on the configured alarm

thresholds, the threshold-crossing indicators and related links are colored red.
This helps determine the quality of links between the core network and CSG
and between the core network and base station, quickly identify faulty links,
and determine whether the fault occurs on the core network or transport
network. For example, if the link between the core-side GW and CSG is
displayed in green and the link between the core-side GW and base station is
displayed in red, the link quality of the transport network is normal and
congestion occurs on the RAN.

7.5.3.4.3 Y.1731
Y.1731 is an OAM protocol proposed by ITU-T. It is used for performance
monitoring and fault management on Ethernet networks. This section describes

7.6 Agile Open Container

7.6.1 Challenges in Network O&M


This section describes the challenges in network O&M.

Industry Trends
In the 5G era, network O&M is facing growing challenges. Network O&M is more
like traffic operations as its value objectives are changing from lowering costs to
generating benefits. Traditional network O&M uses a typical manual mode
requiring both human efforts and process assistance. It is semi-manual and semi-
automatic, and is evolving towards full automation. Network O&M evolution first
requires a change in the traditional thinking pattern, that is, from separation of
development and O&M to integration of them. To achieve this, the carriers' O&M
department must have Development and Operations (DevOps) capabilities that
can transform network O&M from traditional CT O&M into diversified ICT O&M.

In the era featuring rapid development of cloud computing, the design concept of
using the cloud-native architecture to ensure cloud service experience as adopted
for OTT services has a profound impact on the network construction mode of
carriers. Regardless of whether to follow carriers' bottom-up practice of "network
first, cloud later" or OTT service providers' top-down concept of "one network

iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

above cloud", the common factor driving the selection is that enterprises' digital
transformation is accelerating the requirements for cloud-network synergy. Cloud-
based network resource migration and cloud-network integration require both
carriers and enterprises to offer on-demand customization, so as to support future
service scenarios.

Customer Pain Points


In the traditional manual O&M model featuring "people + process", carriers or
enterprises have the following pain points:
● Carrier or enterprise networks are in the dilemma of multi-vendor device
management. Using devices from multiple vendors is a long-term strategy for
carriers and enterprises to avoid vendor lock-in. However, controllers of a
single vendor can only manage its own network devices, and there is no
unified interface standard for integration with the OSS system. The efficiency
in adapting to a new device depends on the vendor's capability and response
speed, which restricts the evolution in automatic provisioning of end-to-end
network services. The adaptation efficiency remains low for a long time and
has become an industry-recognized bottleneck.
● It takes a long time — usually half a year, or even one to two years — to roll
out a new service, which obviously cannot be able to meet the requirements
of the new era. Among the numerous reasons for low rollout speeds, the
typical one is that the development and O&M of new services are separated.
That is, based on the new service requirements raised by carriers or
enterprises, device vendors develop and release versions, which will then be
accepted and used by carriers or enterprises. This means a long process.
● To complete tasks such as network device adaptation and network cutover, an
engineer needs to manually execute a large number of command scripts,
which is error-prone. As the scripts increase in scale, their maintainability
keeps decreasing, making network O&M a high-risk task.
Obviously, this network management and control model that centers on single-
vendor configurations and baselines cannot meet increasingly flexible and agile
O&M requirements of carriers and enterprises. This is where multi-vendor-oriented
open and programmable network management and control solutions can help.

7.6.2 Introduction to AOC


Facing severe challenges in network O&M, Agile Open Container (AOC) provides a
multi-domain and multi-vendor open programmability platform for network
automation, on the basis of YANG models.

YANG Model
AOC is a network automation platform based on the YANG model. This means it
can better interconnect with the southbound and northbound YANG protocol
standard ecosystem, building a low-code platform for network automation.
NETCONF/YANG has become a mainstream network management protocol, ideal
for replacing traditional methods such as CLI and SNMP. It has the following
advantages over traditional methods:
● Machine-machine interfaces: NETCONF provides structured machine-
machine interfaces, enabling network automation.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 241


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

● Simplified network management: NETCONF defines a transaction


mechanism for devices, simplifying network management.
● Efficient management: NETCONF defines standards such as YANG Push and
Get Schemas, making network O&M more efficient.
● Standardization: Standards organizations and vendors have defined YANG
standards, and carriers and enterprises have helped promote YANG
standardization.
AOC can quickly manage NETCONF/YANG devices that are based on the YANG
model and manage CLI-based devices that are not based on the YANG model.

Multi-Domain and Multi-Vendor


Multi-domain: AOC supports multiple domains, such as carriers' data center
networks, metro networks, backbone networks, and mobile backhaul networks as
well as enterprises' data center networks, campus networks, and WANs. It also
manages diverse network devices. These devices include physical and virtual
network devices from the physical form perspective and include firewalls, switches,
and routers from the device type perspective.
Multi-vendor: AOC supports network devices from mainstream vendors, including
Huawei, Cisco, and Juniper, and supports fast integration of devices from other
vendors.

Network Automation

AOC is a network automation platform, which can combine device-level APIs into
abstract network service APIs for cross-device automatic orchestration.
By automating cumbersome, repetitive manual tasks, AOC frees up network
administrators and engineers for more in high-value tasks. It not only improves
employee satisfaction, but also improves productivity and reduces manual
configuration errors.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 242


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

Unlike traditional automation tools, such as Ansible, AOC is a dedicated network


automation tool that provides out-of-the-box network automation capabilities.
This is implemented through the YANG model, EasyMap mechanism, and
transaction mechanism of AOC. With AOC, you only need to focus on service code,
letting you quickly roll out services.

Open Programmability
AOC provides network open programmability capabilities, which allow you to
quickly define and deliver both multi-vendor management and network service
application development capabilities.

Figure 7-33 Open programmability

Similar to drivers and applications on Windows, AOC provides application and


driver openness capabilities.
Driver: AOC provides fast device driver programming capabilities to quickly
manage new devices.
Application: AOC supports the quick programming of service applications to
rapidly develop new applications.
By opening these capabilities and leveraging plug-and-play capabilities, you can
quickly roll out new services.

7.6.2.1 Application Scenarios


This section describes the main application scenarios of AOC.

Quick Adaptation to Multi-vendor Devices


Carrier and enterprise networks usually have devices from multiple vendors,
typically in scenarios such as automatic 5G site densification and multi-vendor CPE
configuration. However, these devices cannot be centrally managed. In addition,
slow integration of new devices, low automation, and long service provisioning
periods have become bottlenecks in end-to-end service delivery. AOC is a perfect
choice for improving device adaptation efficiency. It can automatically identify and
read YANG model files of devices through YANG interfaces, generate specific NE
driver (SND) packages, and load the packages to the system. In this way, a new

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 243


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

device can get managed within one day, improving the adaptation efficiency by
90%.

Rapid Service Rollout


New service rollout depends on the OSS system and controller version update. It
takes a long time to roll out a new service due to problems such as insufficient
API integration and high customization costs. Such a service rollout speed cannot
support flexible service scenario changes. AOC allows users to customize service
YANG models and service logic, and can automatically generate northbound APIs
to quickly integrate with the OSS system, so that users can add, delete, modify,
and query devices and network services. The version development time is
shortened from 6-9 months to only 1 month (agile and on-demand release), and
the service rollout period is reduced by 80%.

Reliable Network Change Mechanisms


Legacy network O&M involves migration and modification of a large number of
services. These changes are achieved by manual operations or command scripts,
which are error-prone. It is difficult to maintain massive numbers of scripts,
leading to high risks in network changes. To resolve these difficulties, AOC
provides secure and reliable mechanisms such as dry run, rollback, transaction,
and concurrency, improving the network change accuracy to 99.9%.

Full-Stack Programmability for Management, Control, and Analysis


In the 5G network slicing and intelligent O&M scenarios, AOC not only
implements programmable service provisioning, but also provides path
computation and intelligent analysis programmability based on user-defined
network service models, maximizing the support for future network evolution of
carrier and enterprise services.

7.6.2.2 Customer Benefits


AOC can meet the following requirements of carriers and enterprises:

● Agile automation: New service rollout depends on the OSS and controller
version update. It takes a long time to roll out a new service due to problems
such as insufficient API integration and high customization costs. Such a
service rollout speed cannot support flexible service scenario changes. AOC
accelerates service rollout and provides on-demand service customization
capabilities, enabling enterprises to quickly launch 5G and cloud applications
to meet ever-changing requirements.
● Open programmability: AOC provides end-to-end network open
programmability capabilities to enable DevOps and digital transformation for
enterprises.
● Full-lifecycle network automation: AOC provides cross-device network
automation from the service perspective, enabling automated deployment.
This simplifies network operations and achieves quick and reliable execution
of service change requests.
● Network configuration consistency assurance: AOC provides device- and
service-level configuration consistency assurance capabilities to reduce the

iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 7 Functions and Features

Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) and quickly detect and rectify faults for
enterprises.
● Network infrastructure as code: AOC supports code-based automated
network management as well as template, service package, and parameter
management, minimizing errors caused by manual operations.
● Low-code platform: AOC supports YANG models, EasyMap algorithm, and
codeless driver generation, maximizing operational efficiency.

Product Description (x86,enterprise) 8 Usage Scenarios

8 Usage Scenarios

8.1 CloudWAN

8.1 CloudWAN
Background and Challenges
A wide area network (WAN) is an interconnection network used for long-distance
communication between enterprises or organizations. With coverage ranging from
tens to thousands of kilometers, WANs enable information and resource sharing
over vast distances. Typically, enterprises lease links from carriers or build their
own links for long-distance communication. WANs connect enterprise factories,
branches, cloud platforms, intelligent products, and users. At the same time, they
break data silos, support quick implementation of innovative services and
applications, and enable efficient collaboration between various fields. While
enterprise digital transformation improves production efficiency, it also brings the
following challenges to WANs:
● Segment-based O&M of traditional WANs results in inefficient network
provisioning and non-agile enterprise cloudification.
Traditional enterprise applications are mostly deployed on local servers in the
headquarters. In this case, WANs only need to implement communication
between branches and the headquarters, typically adopting the point-to-point
(P2P) connection mode. As enterprise applications are deployed on clouds,
WANs are used to connect branches and the headquarters to these clouds in
point-to-multipoint (P2MP) or multipoint-to-multipoint (MP2MP) mode.
Traditional WANs typically use MPLS technology, and their maintenance is
conducted by multiple departments. Service deployment is based on manual
segment-by-segment configuration, which is time-consuming and cannot
match the cloud deployment speed.
Due to the lack of a unified WAN backbone network, an enterprise needs to
lease multiple site-to-cloud private lines based on the deployment locations
of different clouds. Building a new cloud data center means that all network
and cloud connections need to be established from scratch. This results in
complex connections, difficulty in segment-based deployment, and long time
for service monetization.

Issue 03 (2023-08-15) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 249


iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 8 Usage Scenarios

● The adoption of IP on production networks makes it difficult to guarantee


network SLAs.
As core production systems are migrated to the cloud, carrying various
services on one IP WAN will become an inevitable trend for enterprise digital
transformation, especially when we factor in construction cost, O&M, and
rapid service expansion. Different services have distinct requirements on
network latency and bandwidth. How to carry various services on a single
network while meeting their SLA requirements is also a key challenge facing
WANs.
● Cloud and network resource utilizations are unbalanced, and capacity
expansion is mostly carried out passively.
Traditional WANs forward packets through the shortest path, leading to an
imbalance between cloud and network resource utilizations. Specifically, on
some nodes, resources are exhausted, but on others, most or even all of
resources are left idle. As the overall network traffic increases year by year,
enterprises passively invest in capacity expansion of some nodes or links,
leading to waste. Furthermore, cloud data center construction leads to a
sharp increase in traffic between enterprises and cloud data centers and
between cloud data centers, exacerbating this problem.
● In the cloud era, the number of network connections increases by hundreds of
times. Complex connections create difficulties in O&M.
Traditional O&M lacks E2E automation capabilities and instead responds
passively to customer complaints. Manual fault locating, segment-by-segment
troubleshooting, and path adjustment are time-consuming and labor-
intensive, resulting in low O&M efficiency. Massive terminal connections make
services more diversified and network connections more complex, posing
severe challenges to the traditional O&M mode. How to improve O&M
efficiency and implement intelligent O&M is a must for WANs.

The CloudWAN solution is a next-generation agile, intelligent, and secure WAN
solution developed based on an intelligent foundation — the IPv6 Enhanced
digital infrastructure. The CloudWAN solution uses key technologies such as SRv6,
network slicing, intelligent cloud-map algorithm, and In-situ Flow Information
Telemetry (IFIT) to meet the requirements of enterprise cloudification and IP-
based production networks. It helps build future-oriented intelligent WANs,
accelerating enterprise digital transformation. This solution solves the following
problems faced by enterprise WANs:

● Non-agile cloud connection


The CloudWAN solution builds a unified WAN cloud backbone network to
which various cloud resources are preconnected through cloud PEs and
enterprise campus egresses are preconnected through network PEs, that is,
cloud-network connections are predeployed. As part of this solution, iMaster
NCE-IP, under the support of the seamless cross-domain technology SRv6,
takes just minutes to generate cloud paths with different QoS, latency, and
bandwidth based on customers' business requirements. That, coupled with
self-services such as cloud path and SLA assurance, truly achieves agile cloud
connection and multi-cloud access upon network access.
● Deterministic SLAs non-guaranteed

Product Description (x86,enterprise) 8 Usage Scenarios

The CloudWAN solution uses the industry's first hierarchical slicing technology
to implement one fiber for multiple purposes. To prevent mutual impact,
different services are carried on different slices that are hard isolated from
each other. This solution not only implements converged transport on a single
network, but also meets the SLA requirements of different services. As such,
the solution eliminates the need to construct multiple networks, thereby
significantly reducing costs.
● Heavy investment in passive capacity expansion
In the CloudWAN solution, network-wide traffic is reported to iMaster NCE-IP
in a unified manner. iMaster NCE-IP uses algorithms, such as the intelligent
cloud-map algorithm, to perform cloud-network optimization based on both
network factors (bandwidth and latency) and cloud factors (cost and
computing power), maximizing the utilization of cloud-network resources.
● Low O&M efficiency
The CloudWAN solution uses IFIT to collect KPIs such as network latency and
packet loss rate in real time. The KPIs are then reported to iMaster NCE-IP,
making service experience visible and manageable. Huawei's proprietary
knowledge graph algorithm is used to quickly locate the root causes of faults
and automatically rectify faults.

Solution Scenarios
Huawei's CloudWAN solution deploys key technologies (such as SRv6, network
slicing, intelligent cloud-map algorithm, and IFIT) on the network, and uses
iMaster NCE-IP for unified control to implement automatic deployment of
enterprise cloud services, SLA assurance for key services, intelligent optimization of
network traffic, service visualization, fast O&M, and more. The CloudWAN solution
is mainly applied on the backbone networks between enterprise campuses and
clouds, between enterprise campuses, and between clouds. Its applications are
divided into three scenarios:
● Scenario 1: enterprise services agilely carried on the cloud
● Scenario 2: industrial interconnection between enterprise campuses
● Scenario 3: inter-cloud interconnection

Key Features
The CloudWAN solution has the following key features:
● SRv6, enabling network automation
Based on native IPv6, SRv6 integrates the network programming capability of
segment routing. SRv6-TE Policy leverages the source routing mechanism of
segment routing to guide packet forwarding based on an ordered list of
segments encapsulated by the headend. Thanks to iMaster NCE-IP and SRv6-
TE Policy, provisioning end-to-end services in enterprise cloudification
scenarios does not require any manual intervention. Consequently, the
configuration process can be based entirely on the cloud and SDN. According
to enterprises' business requirements, iMaster NCE-IP can generate cloud
paths with different QoS, latency, and bandwidth in mere minutes, thereby
implementing quick deployment of cloud services.
● Network slicing, providing deterministic SLA assurance
Using hierarchical slicing, the CloudWAN solution enables multiple logical
networks to be created over one physical network for multi-service transport
and deterministic SLA assurance. Network SLAs mainly involve latency and
bandwidth, which network slicing can control and guarantee, respectively, to
safeguard mission-critical services.
● Intelligent cloud-map algorithm, improving resource utilization
The intelligent cloud-map algorithm is a vital part of the CloudWAN solution.
In this solution, iMaster NCE-IP is used to collect network-wide information
(such as path latency and bandwidth), compute E2E optimal forwarding paths
based on the collected information, and steer traffic to these paths. In

Product Description (x86,enterprise) 8 Usage Scenarios

addition to network factors such as bandwidth and latency, the intelligent


cloud-map algorithm considers cloud pool load factors. Based on SRv6 and
SDN technologies, the algorithm can quickly match and schedule services to
the most appropriate cloud pool. The intelligent cloud-map algorithm
implements cloud-network load balancing and efficient resource utilization,
helping enterprises effectively reduce TCO.
● IFIT, building a closed-loop intelligent O&M system
IFIT directly measures network performance indicators such as the latency,
packet loss rate, and jitter by adding IFIT headers to real service packets. It
uses telemetry to report measurement data in real time to iMaster NCE-IP,
which then displays network performance indicators through its GUI. After
IFIT is deployed on a network, the actual forwarding path of packets can be
restored. Thanks to telemetry enabling the collection of data within seconds,
network SLAs can be visualized in real time and faults can be quickly
demarcated and automatically rectified, building a closed-loop intelligent
O&M system.

site and secondary site are switched over.
In other scenarios, the floating IP address for interconnection between sites cannot be
configured.

Manual Switchover
Solution Introduction
The primary site and secondary site communicate with each other through
heartbeat links and detect the status of the peer site in real time. The active site
synchronizes product data to the standby site in real time through the data
replication link to ensure product data consistency between the primary site and
secondary site.
When a disaster occurs at the primary site, perform the takeover operation at the
secondary site. The secondary site becomes the active site and provides services
externally. The primary site becomes the standby site.
Manual Switchover Trigger Conditions
● A disaster such as an earthquake, fire, or power failure occurs at the primary
site caused the system as a whole to be unable to provide services.
● The primary site is faulty, causing some key nodes to be damaged and unable
to provide services. For example, database node (DB) corruption, platform
service node (Common_Service) corruption, management domain service
node (NMS) corruption, or control domain service node (Controller or
TController) corruption.

Automatic Switchover (No Arbitration)


Solution introduction:
The primary and secondary sites use heartbeat links to detect the status of the
peer site in real time. The primary site synchronizes data to the secondary site in
real time through the data replication link to ensure data consistency between the
primary and secondary sites.
If the primary site encounters a power failure, hardware failure, or system down
event and the fault is not rectified within the specified time, the secondary site
automatically enters the active state and the primary site switches to the standby
state after fault rectification.
If only the heartbeat link between the primary and secondary sites is interrupted
and the heartbeat interruption duration exceeds the configured threshold (5
minutes by default), service takeover occurs, causing dual active and generating
dual active alarms. When the heartbeat recovers, the dual active state changes to
active/standby 3 minutes later.
● If the heartbeat recovers within two hours, the active site before the
heartbeat link is interrupted remains active, and the other site switches to

iMaster NCE-IP
Product Description (x86,enterprise) 9 High Availability

standby. After the heartbeat link is normal and the active/standby state is
stable, the system automatically synchronizes full data of the product at the
active site to the standby site to restore the product. In addition, the product
data at the primary site is consistent with that at the secondary site.
● If the heartbeat recovers two hours later, considering both sites may have
been operated, the system does not automatically change the dual active
state to active/standby. Instead, users determine the active and standby sites
based on site requirements and perform manual switchover to prevent data
loss.
Trigger conditions of automatic switchover:
● A disaster such as an earthquake, fire, or power failure occurs at the primary
site, and the fault is not rectified within the specified time.
● In NCE Manager and other specific scenarios:
– If local protection is not configured for microservices, when any of the
default key microservices of the system is faulty, an automatic switchover
is triggered to ensure proper service running. For the key microservice list,
see the Pivotal Microservice column in the Processes and Services sheet
of NCE Process and Service List.
– If local protection is not configured for service nodes, when a southbound
or northbound network interface on a service node is faulty, which causes
the southbound or northbound network to be faulty, an automatic
switchover is triggered.
– If local protection is not configured for databases, when a default key
relational or Redis database instance on a service node is faulty, an
automatic switchover is triggered.

Automatic Switchover (with Third-Party Site Arbitration)


Solution introduction:
The arbitration service periodically checks the connectivity between the primary,
secondary, and third-party sites, and shares the check results through the
arbitration node communication link. If the arbitration heartbeat is abnormal due
to a network exception or site fault, the arbitration service uses an internal
algorithm to provide the optimal site on the current network to implement
automatic switchover between the primary site and secondary site.
Trigger conditions of automatic switchover:
● A disaster such as an earthquake, fire, or power failure occurs at the primary
site, and the fault is not rectified within the specified time.
● The heartbeat link between the primary and secondary sites is interrupted,
and the communication link between the arbitration nodes on the active and
third-party sites is interrupted.
● In the NCE Manager, centralized Manager+Controller+Analyzer, or compact

servers, the third-party site must use Arm servers.
NOTE

If the CPU architectures of the primary and secondary sites are different, contact
Huawei R&D engineers to determine whether the DR system can be created.
● If the third-party site is provided by the customer, it must be exclusively used
for the arbitration service but cannot be shared with other services.
● One NCE DR system corresponds to one arbitration service at the third-party
site. If multiple NCE DR systems exist on the live network, the corresponding
arbitration services can be deployed at the same third-party site to reduce
costs. A maximum of 10 arbitration services, for different software versions,
can be co-deployed at a third-party site. If the third-party site is faulty, all
arbitration services at it will fail to run and must be reinstalled.
NOTE

The OS of a third-party site can trace only one external clock source. When multiple
arbitration services are deployed at a third-party site, the clocks of their corresponding
DR systems must be the same to ensure that the time of the third-party site is
consistent with that of all the primary and secondary sites.
● In the NCE distributed Manager+Controller+Analyzer scenario, the arbitration
service is deployed in 2+2+1 mode on five nodes of the three sites.

– Two arbitration nodes (Common_Service) are deployed at each of site A


(the primary site) and site B (the secondary site) for mutual protection.
One arbitration node is deployed at the third-party site.
– ArbiterRaft is deployed on the five arbitration nodes to form an
ArbiterRaft cluster. Monitor is deployed on the four arbitration nodes at
site A (the primary site) and site B (the secondary site) to monitor the
network connectivity between the two sites and save the results in the
ArbiterRaft cluster.
NOTE

The arbitration service consists of the ArbiterRaft and Monitor processes.


● ArbiterRaft is a self-developed distributed key-value storage system. It
provides data consistency read and write capabilities when no more than half
of the nodes are faulty. In the NCE DR system with third-party arbitration, it
stores key switchover decision-making data and configuration parameters to
ensure automatic application-level DR switchover.
● Monitor checks the network connectivity between sites and saves the check
results in the ArbiterRaft cluster.

communication IP address ● The DR network can reuse the inter-node
link communication network or northbound
network or use an independent network.
● It is not recommended that the arbitration
node communication link reuse the
northbound network. If the arbitration
node communication link reuses the
northbound network and both of them
break down, the arbitration service cannot
run properly, causing an exception during
automatic switchover. In this case, the NCE
management plane that is connected
through the northbound network is
inaccessible and manual switchover cannot
be performed. As a result, the DR system
cannot be restored in time.

Automatic Switchover (with NE Arbitration)


Solution Introduction
To prevent the dual-active state when the network between sites is abnormal, the
DR service periodically initiates a request for querying the southbound arbitration
NE status and determines the status of the primary site and secondary site based
on the query results. When the DR heartbeat is abnormal due to a network
exception or site fault and the connection between the active site and southbound
arbitration NE is abnormal, the primary site and secondary site are automatically
switched over.

CAUTION

● NAT is not supported between NCE and the southbound arbitration NE.
● The number of arbitration NEs must be an odd number and ranges from 3 to
11.
● To ensure system reliability:
● Separate the southbound network from the DR network to reduce the
probability that both networks are faulty at the same time.
● Select arbitration NEs from different subnets to reduce the probability of
multiple points of failure during NE upgrade.

Automatic Switchover Trigger Conditions


● A disaster such as an earthquake, fire, or power failure occurs at the primary
site, and the fault is not rectified within the specified time.
● The heartbeat link between the primary site and secondary site is interrupted,
and the connection between the active site and southbound arbitration NE is
abnormal.

Southbound Performance Collection Capabilities


NOTE

● An equivalent instance is a basic unit to describe the performance collection capability


of the PMS.
● Number of equivalent instances = Total number of indicators of each instance (15-
minute period)/50. If the number of equivalent instances is less than one, it is
regarded as one. If the period is not 15 minutes, the value is calculated based on
the proportion of the period to 15 minutes. For example, the number of equivalent
instances of a one-hour period can be 0.25. Note that the total number of
instances cannot exceed the maximum capability of Manager+Controller+Analyzer.
● The preceding collection capabilities are applicable only to SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.
For SNMPv3, only 2/3 of the data collection capabilities are reached. For example,
the collection capability based on SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c is 150,000, and that
based on SNMPv3 is 100,000. SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c are insecure protocols. A
more secure SNMPv3 protocol is recommended.
● NEs must respond in 0.05s to collection requests sent from NCE. Otherwise, the
actual performance collection capability is compromised.
● Bulk (Access) collection generates only NBI data and does not support PMS
instance creation.
● The equivalent instances of different collection protocols are as follows: 1
equivalent instance = 50 indicators of 1 instance (15-minute period)
Protocol Equivalent Instance
SNMP 1
QX 1
Bulk (IP) 1
Bulk (Access) 0.5
BULKOverQX 2
SNMP-EX 5
SNMPV3 1.5
● If multiple collection methods are used, conversion is required. For example, if SNMP
+Bulk is used for collection and X records are collected in SNMP mode, the number of
records Y collected in Bulk mode can be calculated as follows:
Y = Maximum collection capability – X
● The BulkOverQx collection mode applies to the following NEs: ATN905(V8),
ETN500(V8), OptiX PTN 930, OptiX PTN 905D, OptiX PTN 7900E-32, OptiX PTN 910E-F,

12.4 Equivalent Coefficient


Equivalent coefficients are the ratios of the resources occupied by physical NEs or
ports to the resources occupied by equivalent NEs.

Definition
● Equivalent NE: a uniform criterion used to describe and calculate the
management capabilities of NCE. This criterion is needed because different
types of NEs occupy different system resources to support different functions,
features, cross-connect capacities, and numbers of boards, ports, and
channels. Therefore, different types of NEs and ports must be converted to
equivalent NEs based on the number of system resources they occupy. An
equivalent NE occupies as many system resources as an STM-1 transport NE.
● Equivalent coefficient: Resources occupied by physical NEs or ports/Resources
occupied by equivalent NEs

Calculation
The number of equivalent NEs that NCE can manage is calculated according to
the following rules:
● Basic unit of equivalent NEs: OptiX OSN 1800 I
● The equivalent coefficient of third-party NEs is 1. The equivalent coefficient of
OEM devices is the same as that of Huawei devices.
● Number of equivalent NEs = Number of NEs of type 1 x Equivalent coefficient
of type 1 + ... + Number of NEs of type n x Equivalent coefficient of type n

The following table lists the R/AR series NE supported.

NOTE
NCE is insensitive to the software versions of R/AR series products (VRPv5 only). As long as a
software version of these products has been supported earlier, NCE inherently supports all
subsequent versions unless these versions involve incompatible changes.

The following table lists the switch NEs supported.

NOTE

● NCE is insensitive to the software version of S switches. If the old software version of
the S switch is matched, the new software version of the S switch is supported.
● Pay attention to the following for decoupled devices:
1. If NCE needs to support the new functions provided in new device versions, check
and upgrade NCE to the corresponding version.
2. If NCE needs to support the new alarms provided in new device versions, check and
upgrade NCE to the corresponding version.
3. If new device versions involve command line changes, check and upgrade NCE to the
corresponding version. Otherwise, the interaction between NCE and the devices may
be disrupted.
4. If new boards are added in new device versions, there is no need to upgrade NCE.

originated from digital movies produced by Hollywood movie
makers. 4K has become the common name for ultra high
definition or ultra HD, and its resolutions include 3840 x 2160
and 4096 x 2160. Compared with 1080p full HD content, 4K
content provides more refined details and greater texture,
bringing subscribers a better cinematic experience.
802.1Q in A VLAN feature that allows the equipment to add a VLAN
802.1Q (QinQ) tag to a tagged frame. The implementation of QinQ is to add
a public VLAN tag to a frame with a private VLAN tag to
allow the frame with double VLAN tags to be transmitted
over the service provider's backbone network based on the
public VLAN tag. This provides a layer 2 VPN tunnel for
customers and enables transparent transmission of packets
over private VLANs.

asymmetric in that it uses most of the channel to transmit
downstream to the user and only a small part to receive
information from the user. ADSL simultaneously
accommodates analog (voice) information on the same line.
ADSL is generally offered at downstream data rates from 512
kbit/s to about 6 Mbit/s.

Hypertext An application-layer protocol used for communications


Transfer between web servers and browsers or other programs. HTTP
Protocol adopts the request-response mode. A client sends a request
(HTTP) to the server. The request consists of two parts: request
header and MIME-like message. The request header contains
request method, uniform resource locator (URL), and
protocol version. The MIME-like message contains request
modifiers, client information, and possible body content.
Upon receiving the request, the server responds with a status
line. The status line includes the message's protocol version,
a success or error code, and a MIME-like message, which
contains server information, entity meta-information, and
possible entity-body content. For details about HTTP, see
RFC2616.The protocol used to carry requests from a browser
to a Web server and to transport pages from Web servers
back to the requesting browser. Although HTTP is almost
universally used on the Web, it is not an especially secure
protocol.Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) - a networking
protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypermedia
information systems. HTTP is the foundation of data
communication for the World Wide Web.
Hypertext An HTTP protocol that runs on top of transport layer security
Transfer (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) for secured
Protocol Secure transactions. It is used to establish a reliable channel for
(HTTPS) encrypted communication and secure identification of a
network web server. HTTPS consists of communication over
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) within a connection
encrypted by Transport Layer Security, or its predecessor,
Secure Sockets Layer. The main motivation for HTTPS is
authentication of the visited website and protection of the
privacy and integrity of the exchanged data.
hash-based In cryptography, a keyed-hash message authentication code
message (HMAC) is a specific type of message authentication code
authentication (MAC) involving a cryptographic hash function (hence the
code (HMAC) 'H') in combination with a secret cryptographic key. As with
any MAC, it may be used to simultaneously verify both the
data integrity and the authentication of a message. Any
cryptographic hash function, such as MD5 or SHA-1, may be
used in the calculation of an HMAC; the resulting MAC
algorithm is termed HMAC-MD5 or HMAC-SHA1 accordingly.
The cryptographic strength of the HMAC depends upon the
cryptographic strength of the underlying hash function, the
size of its hash output, and on the size and quality of the key.

Media Access A protocol at the media access control sublayer. The protocol
Control (MAC) is at the lower part of the data link layer in the OSI model
and is mainly responsible for controlling and connecting the
physical media at the physical layer. When transmitting data,
the MAC protocol checks whether to be able to transmit
data. If the data can be transmitted, certain control
information is added to the data, and then the data and the
control information are transmitted in a specified format to
the physical layer. When receiving data, the MAC protocol
checks whether the information is correct and whether the
data is transmitted correctly. If the information is correct and
the data is transmitted correctly, the control information is
