Configuring Controllers

This chapter describes the Optics Controller and Coherent DSP Controller for the 6-port Coherent Line Card (NC55-6X200-DWDM-S). This chapter also describes the procedures used to configure the controllers.


Note

When you plan to replace a configured optical module with a different type of optical module, you must clear the configurations of the old module before installing the new optical module.


Note

When two MACsec enabled Cisco NCS 5500 routers with Coherent Line Cards are connected, there is no compatibility between Coherent Line Cards of IOS XR Release version 6.5.x (or lower) and 6.6.1 (or higher).

Optics Controllers

Controllers are represented in the rack/slot/instance/port format (r/s/i/p); for example, 0/3/0/1. Each port has an optics controller that is created on startup.


Note

You must shut down the optics controller before you perform any of the following tasks:

  • Configure the controller

  • Restore a saved configuration

  • Upgrade the DSP processor or CFP2 optics module Field Programmable Device (FPD)


Note

When there are dualrate optics on NCS-57C3-MOD-S/-SE-S + NC57-MPA-12L-S, and while configuring lower speed, you may see a few initial link flaps, after that the link stabilizes and no further flaps will be seen.

CFP2 DCO Optics Support

There are two hardware versions of the CFP DCO optics (A0 and B0). You can identify the version A0 and B0 using a show coherent driver internal location 0/0/CPU0 command and looking at "VID".

A0 = V01

B0 = V02

The CFP2 DCO version A0 optics support the following traffic types:

The 100G/Staircase FEC traffic-type is supported with CFP2 DCO version B0 optics.

Maintenance Mode

Coherent DSP controllers can be placed in maintenance mode. Use the controller coherentDSP secondary-admin-state maintenance command to place controllers in maintenance mode.

Use the show controllers optics r/s/i/p command to view optics parameter values, laser state, controller state, admin state, and trunk alarms on the card, and threshold values for the different optics parameters.

Use the show controllers coherentDSP r/s/i/p command to view the DSP controller state and alarm status and statistics.


Note
In maintenance mode, all alarms are suppressed and the show alarms command does not display alarm details. However, traffic is not affected in maintenance mode.

Note
The FEC is disabled for 25G and 50G optics in NC57-MPA-12L-S MPA when connected on 55A2-MOD-SE-S/-SE-H-S router, and in Line card NC57-MOD-S while verifying the FEC status using show controllers { TwentyfiveGigE | FiftyGigE }

Performance Monitoring

Performance monitoring (PM) parameters are used by service providers to gather, store, set thresholds for, and report performance data for early detection of problems. The user can retrieve both current and historical PM counters for the various controllers in 30-second, 15-minute, and 24-hour intervals.

PM for optical parameters include input signal power and transmit power, optical signal-to-noise ratio, chromatic dispersion, polarization dependent loss, second order polarization mode dispersion, differential group delay, and transmitter laser bias current.

PM for DSP parameters include:

  • FEC: error corrected bits, uncorrectable blocks, pre-FEC BER (block errors ratio)

  • OTN: errored seconds, severely effected seconds, unavailable seconds, failed counts

These parameters simplify troubleshooting operations and enhance data that can be collected directly from the equipment.

How to Configure Controllers

This section contains the following procedures:

Configuring Optics Controller

You can configure parameters such as performance monitoring, high power threshold, and wavelength for Optics controller.

To configure the Optics controller, use the following commands:

Before you begin

You must shut down the optics controller before you perform any of the following tasks:

  • Configure the controller

  • Restore a saved configuration

  • Upgrade the DSP processor or CFP2 optics module Field Programmable Device (FPD)

    • N540X-ACC-SYS

    • N540-ACC-SYS

    • N540-28Z4C-SYS

  • The 25Gbps mode is divided into four quads (0-3). Each quad consists of the following ports:

    • Quad 0 - Ports 24-27

    • Quad 1 - Ports 28-31

    • Quad 2 - Ports 32-35

    • Quad 3 - Ports 36-39

  • 10Gbps mode supports both 1Gpbs and 10Gbps port speed.

  • 25Gbps mode is the default mode set on the quad.

  • Port speeds of 1Gbps and 10Gbps are incompatible with a 25Gbps port speed within the same quad. They cannot be configured to operate simultaneously.

Configure Port Mode Speed

Each port on the 6-port Coherent Line Card can support 100 Gbps (DWDM QPSK), 150Gbps (DWDM 8 QAM), or 200Gbps (DWDM 16 QAM) WDM signals.


Note

You might rarely see up to five syslog messages mentioning that the recovery mechanism got triggered to recover the port. These messages are about a port in down state due to auto-negotiation mismatch with the peer port and other port-down scenarios. You can ignore such syslog messages as they will not affect the functionality of the ports.


Note

The line card has three Digital Signal Processors (DSPs), one for each pair of ports:

  • Ports 0 and 1 – DSP0

  • Ports 2 and 3 – DSP1

  • Ports 4 and 5 – DSP2

When you configure the port-mode speed for 150Gbps (8 QAM), the port pairs belonging to a DSP are coupled. Ensure that you configure the port-mode speed on each port of the port pair that belongs to the same DSP.

To configure the port mode speed, use the following commands:

Before you begin

Ensure that you shut down the controller before you configure the controller or restore a saved configuration.

If you need to change the port-mode speed, ensure that you remove the existing port mode speed configuration by entering the no port-mode command. You can then change the port mode speed.

The following example shows how to change the port mode speed to 100Gbps.


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# controller optics 0/3/0/0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-Optics)# shutdown
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-Optics)# commit
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-Optics)# no port-mode
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-Optics)# commit
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-Optics)# port-mode speed 100G mod qpsk fec 15sdfec diff enable
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-Optics)# commit
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-Optics)# no shutdown
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-Optics)# commit
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-Optics)# exit
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#

To modify the default 25Gpbs mode into 10Gbps mode, perform the below configuration:

Before Cisco IOS XR Release 7.5.1:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# hw-module quad 0 location 0/0/CPU0

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-quad-0x0)# mode 10g

From Cisco IOS XR Release 7.5.1:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# hw-module quad 0 location 0/0/CPU0 instance 1 mode 10g

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-quad-0x0)# mode 10g


Note

A quad number always starts from 0 to the maximum supported number. The number of quads supported varies from platform to platform and the CLI validates it. For example, the NCS 540 Series Router supports two quads (0 and 1). If you enter X=3, the CLI returns an error.

Here, instance indicates the MPA card instance. It can range from 0-5. For Cisco NCS 540 Series Routers, it is always 0. Whereas, for Cisco NCS 5500 Series Routers, the instance can be between 0-5, adding 1 for every MPA instance. The default value is 0.

Starting with Cisco IOS XR Release 24.2.1, you can configure 50Gpbs mode only on NC-57-48Q2D-S and NC-57-48Q2D-SE-S line cards.


Note

A quad number always starts from 0 to the maximum supported number. The number of quads supported varies from platform to platform and the CLI validates it. For example, the NCS 540 Series Router supports two quads (0 and 1). If you enter X=3, the CLI returns an error.

Here, instance indicates the MPA card instance. It can range from 0-5. For Cisco NCS 540 Series Routers, it is always 0. Whereas, for Cisco NCS 5500 Series Routers, the instance can be between 0-5, adding 1 for every MPA instance. The default value is 0.


Note

To revert to the default 25Gbps mode, use the no form of the hw-module quad command.

After you configure the port-mode speed, you can configure the following interfaces:

  • 100G – Each optics controller configuration creates a single 100GE port:

    • interface HundredGigE r/s/i/p/0 (wherep = CTP2 port 0-5)

      0/3/0/0/0

      0/3/0/1/0

      0/3/0/2/0

      0/3/0/3/0

      0/3/0/4/0

      0/3/0/5/0

  • 200G – Each optics controller configuration creates two 100GE ports:

    • interface HundredGigE r/s/i/p/0, r/s/i/p/1 (wherep = CTP2 port 0-5

      0/3/0/0/0, 0/3/0/0/1

      0/3/0/1/0, 0/3/0/1/1

      0/3/0/2/0, 0/3/0/2/1

      0/3/0/3/0, 0/3/0/3/1

      0/3/0/4/0, 0/3/0/4/1

      0/3/0/5/0, 0/3/0/5/1

  • 150G (coupled) – Coupled optics controller configuration creates three 100GE port:

    • interface HundredGigE r/s/i/p/0, r/s/i/p/1, r/s/i/p+1/0 (wherep = CTP2 port: 0, 2, 4 [port p and p +1 are coupled])

      0/3/0/0/0, 0/3/0/0/1, 0/3/0/1/0

      0/3/0/2/0, 0/3/0/2/1, 0/3/0/3/0

      0/3/0/4/0, 0/3/0/4/1, 0/3/0/5/0

For more information, see the Configuring Ethernet Interfaces chapter.

Configuring Wavelength

To configure wavelength, use the following commands:

Before you begin

  • Before configuring the wavelength, use the show controllers opticsr/s/i/p dwdm-carrrier-map command to display the wavelength and channel mapping for optics controllers.

  • You must shut down the controller before you configure the controller or restore a saved configuration.

Replace Optical Module

In this example, we are replacing QSFP-100G-SR4-S QSFP optics configured for 4x25 breakout with QSFP-40G-SR4 optics and configure it for 4x10 breakout.

  1. Delete the optical module configuration using the no breakout command. 

    Router# configure
Router(config)# controller optics 0/2/0/35
Router(config-Optics)# no breakout 4x25
Router(config-Optics)# commit

  2. Replace the QSFP-100G-SR4-S QSFP optical module with QSFP-40G-SR4 optical module.

  3. Configure 4x10 breakout for QSFP-40G-SR4 optical module.

    Router# configure
Router(config)# controller optics 0/2/0/35
Router(config-Optics)# breakout 4x10
Router(config-Optics)# commit
