The Alcatel-Lucent 7705 SAR supports
RFC 5086 — Structure-Aware TDM
Circuit Emulation Service over Packet
Switched Network (CESoPSN) and also
RFC 4553 — Structure-Agnostic TDM
over Packet (SAToP) for the encapsulation
and transport of TDM traffic; for
example, from mobile 2G, TDM-attached
base stations. The use of circuit
emulation service (CES) ensures that
only the active time slots are trans-
ported, keeping bandwidth usage to
a minimum. Also, the Alcatel-Lucent
7705 SAR supports RFC 4717 — Encap-
sulation Methods for Transport of ATM
over MPLS networks; N:1 cell mode is
supported. Multiple access ATM ports
are bundled together to attain higher
speeds using IMA. The IMA protocol is
terminated on the Alcatel-Lucent 7705 SAR,
and only the cells containing user data
that belong to a virtual circuit/virtual
path (VC/VP) structure are trans-
ported. RFC 4448 — Encapsulation
Methods for Transport of Ethernet
over MPLS Networks is also supported.
To offer greater scalability, all the
traffic out of an Ethernet port can
becarried over a single Ethernet
pseudowire or, alternatively, apseudo-
wire can be created for each VLAN
that is assigned to a different service
or end customer. IP pseudowires are
supported and provide the ability
to deterministically carry IP traffic
between disparate media. For example,
IP traffic can be carried between a
Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) (or
Multi-Link Point-to-Point Protocol
(MLPPP)) access and an Ethernet
connection. The 7705 SAR product line
supports Border Gateway Protocol
(BGP)/MPLS Virtual Private Networks
(VPNs) to allow the separation of Layer 3
traffic between different groups of
users or organizations. Virtual Private
LAN Service (VPLS) is supported for the
delivery of Layer 2 VPNs. Analog voice
encoding and transport is available on
the 7705 SAR-8 and the 7705 SAR-18.
Voiceband analog traffic can be carried
over a modern network infrastructure
between two analog devices using either
traditional T1/E1 network interfaces or
over Ethernet or MLPPP interfaces.
Highly flexible network infrastructure
options include the use of MPLS, IP or
GRE(Generic Routing Encapsulation)
tunneling for aggregated traffic. When
dynamic MPLS signaling is deployed,
the end-to-end pseudowire is estab-
lished using targeted label distribution
protocol (T-LDP) and the MPLS tunnel
using LDP. In addition to efficient
LDP-based dynamic signaling, static
provisioning of both the MPLS tunnel
and the pseudowire is supported.
GRE or IP tunneling allows low-cost,
ubiquitous IP networks to be used
forbackhauling; for example, for the
transport of HSPA (High Speed Packet
Access) off-loaded traffic using DSL
access media.
Label switched routing
The 7705 SAR can be configured as
either a Label Edge Router (LER) or
a full Label Switched Router (LSR).
Label Switched Paths (LSPs) can be
signaled using either the Label
Distribution Protocol (LDP) or the
Resource Reservation Protocol with
Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE). The
7705 SAR brings a strong suite of
traffic engineering and resiliency
capabilities using functions such as
Constraint-based Shortest Path First
(CSPF) routing, Fast Reroute (FRR),
primary and secondary LSPs and
redundant pseudowires.
Quality of service and
traffic management
It is critical to maintain the end-to-end
quality of service (QoS) for packet
traffic. Not all types of traffic have the
same set of requirements. Voice traffic
in particular requires low latency and
jitter (latency variation) as well as low
loss, whereas data traffic often has less
stringent delay requirements but may
be very sensitive to loss, as packet loss
can seriously constrain application
throughput. To offer the required
treatment throughout the network,
traffic flows with different require-
ments are identified at the access and
marked in-line with the appropriate
QoS metrics. Traffic classification and
marking are carried out based on the
following categories:
Classification (Layer 1/Layer 2/Layer 2.5
and/or Layer 3 header):
t 5JNFTMPUQPSU
t &UIFSOFUQPSU7-"/
t "5.TFSWJDFDBUFHPSZ$#3SU7#3
nrt-VBR/UBR)
t "5.7$
t &UIFSOFUQ7-"/
t *1%4$1.1-4&91
Marking:
t -BZFSQ
t -BZFS&91CPUIGPSUVOOFM
and PWE3
t -BZFS%JGG4FSW
The Alcatel-Lucent 7705 SAR utilizes
extensive traffic management policies to
ensure fairness with detailed classification
and hierarchical scheduling including:
minimum/maximum, queue type-based
weighted round robin or strict priority
and profiled scheduling, as well as
multi-tier policing to differentiate and
prioritize individual services and flows.
Operations, administration
and maintenance
In order to ensure continuity of services,
the Alcatel-Lucent 7705 SAR has a full
set of operations, administration and
maintenance (OAM) features including:
