Understanding Optical Transport Network (OTN)

Use this topic for overview information about Optical Transport Network support provided by specific line cards and devices.

10-Gigabit Ethernet OTN Options Configuration Overview

MX240, MX480, MX960, MX2010, MX2020, T320, T640, T1600, PTX3000, and PTX5000 routers support Optical Transport Network (OTN) interfaces, including the 10-Gigabit Ethernet DWDM OTN PIC, and provide ITU-T G.709 support. Use the set otn-options statement at the [edit interfaces if-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level to configure the OTN options.

MX2020, MX2010, MX960, MX480, and MX240 routers support OTN interfaces on MPC5E and MPC6E. MPC5E-40G10G and MPC5EQ-10G40G support OTN on 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces but not on 40-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. The OTN MIC MIC6-10G-OTN on MPC6E supports OTN on 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces on MX2020 and MX2010 routers.

Note:

The MIC6-10G-OTN line cards support dual rate (10GE or OTU4). To configure OTN on the MIC6-10G-OTN line card, you must configure the rate on the port to OTU4 by using the rate rate statement. If you do not configure the rate to OTU4, OTN mode is not supported on the line card and the interface does not come up.

OTN support on the specified MX Series routers includes:

  • International Telecommunications Union (ITU)-standard OTN performance monitoring and alarm management

  • Transparent transport of 24 10-Gigabit Ethernet signals with optical channel data unit 2 (ODU2) and ODU2e framing on a per-port basis

  • Pre-forward error correction (pre-FEC)-based bit error rate (BER). Fast reroute (FRR) uses the pre-FEC BER as an indication of the condition of an OTN link.

To configure the OTN options on the specified MX routers, use the set otn-options statement at the [edit interfaces interfaceType-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level.

100-Gigabit Ethernet OTN Options Configuration Overview

PTX Series routers support optical transport network (OTN) interfaces, including the 100-Gigabit DWDM OTN PIC, which supports:

  • Transparent transport of two 100-Gigabit Ethernet signals with Optical Channel Transport Unit 4 (OTU4) framing.

  • International Telecommunications Union (ITU)-standard OTN performance monitoring (PM) and alarm management.

  • Dual polarization quadrature phase shift keying (DP-QPSK) modulation and soft-decision forward error correction (SD-FEC) for long haul and metro applications.

  • Pre-forward error correction (pre-FEC)-based bit error rate (BER) monitoring. Pre-FEC BER monitoring uses the pre-FEC BER as an indication of the condition of an OTN link. See Understanding Pre-FEC BER Monitoring and BER Thresholds for more information.

For more information about the 100-Gigabit DWDM OTN PIC, see 100-Gigabit DWDM OTN PIC in the PTX Series Interface Module Reference.

PTX Series routers also support the 100-Gigabit Ethernet OTN PIC (P2-100GE-OTN), which provides four 100-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, independently configurable in LAN PHY framing mode or in optical channel transport unit 4 (OTU4) mode. See Understanding the P2-100GE-OTN PIC for more information.

See Supported OTN Options on PTX Series Routers for a comparison of the features supported on PTX Series OTN PICs.

MX2020, MX2010, MX960, MX480, and MX240 routers support OTN interfaces on MPC5E and MPC6E. MPC5E-100G10G and MPC5EQ-100G10G support 100-Gigabit Ethernet OTN interfaces and 10-Gigabit Ethernet OTN interfaces on MX240, MX480, and MX960 routers. The OTN MIC MIC6-100G-CFP2 on MPC6E supports OTN on 100-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces on MX2020 and MX2010 routers. OTN support on the specified MX Series routers includes:

  • International Telecommunications Union (ITU)-standard OTN performance monitoring (PM) and alarm management

  • Transparent transport of two 100-Gigabit Ethernet signals with optical channel transport unit 4 (OTU4) framing.

  • Generic forward error correction (Generic FEC)

To configure the OTN options for PTX Series routers and specific MX Series routers, use the set otn-options statement at the [edit interfaces interfaceType-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level.

Use the set optics-options statement at the [edit interfaces interfaceType-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level to configure the optics options.

Use the show interfaces extensive, show interfaces diagnostics optics (Gigabit Ethernet, 10-Gigabit Ethernet, 40-Gigabit Ethernet, 100-Gigabit Ethernet, and Virtual Chassis Port), and show interfaces transport pm commands to view optics and OTN PM information. To display the current time interval and clear the channel service unit (CSU) alarm and defect counters, use the clear interfaces interval command.

Interface Mapping and Modulation format for ACX6360

ACX6360 routers supports 8 CFP2-DCO optical modules. For each CFP2-DCO optical module, 1 ot interface is created. Hence, 8 ot interfaces are created for ACX6360 routers. ACX6360 routers support only 100GE et interfaces and up to 2 et interfaces can be mapped to 1 ot interface, depending on the configured CFP2-DCO rate- 100G or 200G.

The optical interface to et mapping is displayed in the following table:
