AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires review by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI B

6、oard of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be

7、made towards their resolution. The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming

8、to the standards. The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name

26、ation (4.3); Maintenance of the Customer Installation (4.4). 4.1 Customer Access A variety of configurations can be used for BRA transport. The ISDN user may be served from the local central office (i.e., interoffice facilities are not used), or from a remote central office (i.e., interoffice facili

27、ties are used). In transporting the access line, it is possible to utilize Digital Subscriber Lines (DSLs), Digital Loop Carrier (DLC) (used to access the local central office), D channel banks (used to access the remote central office via interoffice facilities), or a combination of these. Figure 3

28、 shows typical configurations that represent the ISDN maintenance models for BRA transport. Each configuration (including the network view as provided via performance monitoring) is further discussed below. Figure 3 - ISDN models for Basic Rate Customer Access ATIS-0300216.2013 7 Figure 3(a) shows l

29、ocal access using a simple DSL. Performance monitoring occurs on the DSL between the LT and NT. Figures 3(b) through 3(e) show BRA configurations having one or more transmission links or segments in tandem. For BRAs made up of several segments, performance monitoring at layer 1 can, at the providers

30、 option, be accomplished using either a “segmented monitoring” or a “path monitoring” approach (as de-scribed in 5.2.1). Figure 3(b) shows local access using Integrated Digital Loop Carrier (IDLC). Note that the IDLC portion of the access line need not have dedicated time slots for the B or D channe

31、ls. When dedicated time slots are assigned, either path or segment monitoring may be provided for the 2B+D path between the ET and the NT. When the timeslots are not dedicated, only the DSL between the LULT and NT is monitored and thresholded. To provide an overall view of the BRA, this information

32、must be combined with performance information for the DS1 facility between the ET and Remote Digital Terminal (RDT). This can be done by an OS within the Administration Management Complex (AMC). Figure 3(c) shows local access using Universal Digital Loop Carrier (UDLC). Note that the UDLC portion of

33、 the access line need not have dedicated time slots for the B or D channels. When dedicated time slots are assigned, either path or segment monitoring may be provided for the 2B+D path between the ET and the NT. When the timeslots are not dedicated, the DSL between the LULT and NT and the DSL betwee

34、n the LT and LUNT are monitored and thresholded independently. To provide an overall view of the BRA, this information must be combined with performance information for the DS1 facility between the Central Office Terminal (COT) and RDT. This can be done by an OS within the AMC. Figure 3(d) shows rem

35、ote access using D-banks. Note that the DS1 portion of the access line need not have dedicated time slots for the B or D channels. When dedicated time slots are assigned, either path or segment monitoring may be provided for the 2B+D path between the ET and the NT. When the timeslots are not dedicat

36、ed, the DSL between the LULT and NT and the DSL between the LT and LUNT are moni-tored and thresholded independently. To provide an overall view of the BRA, this information must be combined with performance information for the DS1 facility between the D-banks. This can be done by an OS within the A

37、MC. Figure 3(e) shows remote access using UDLC and D-banks. Note that neither the UDLC portion nor the D-bank portion of the access need have dedicated time slots for the B or D channels. When dedicated time slots are assigned, either path or segment monitoring may be provided for the 2B+D path betw

38、een the ET and the NT. When the timeslots are not dedicated, performance monitoring occurs on the DSL between the LULT in the RDT and NT, the DSL between the LULT in the D-bank and the LUNT in the COT, and the DSL between the LT and the LUNT in the D-bank. To provide an overall view of the BRA, this

39、 information must be combined with performance information for the two DS1 sections of the access. This can be done by an OS within the AMC. 4.2 Maintenance of Customer Access Figure 4 shows a model for the maintenance of the Customer Access (CA). Maintenance of the CA may use the following function

40、al interfaces: Surveillance OS Network Element (NE); Surveillance OS TSC/RTU (for surveillance of the TSC/RTU); Testing OS TSC/RTU (and/or NE); and TSC/RTU NE. ATIS-0300216.2013 8 The TSC/RTU-to-NE relationship consists of a control link and a test access link. The control link is used by the TSC/RT

41、U to control test access functions in the NE and may be provided via a data communications network. Tests are performed via the test access link. 4.3 Customer Installation The wide variety of user application equipment attaching to a Basic Rate Interface (BRI) will require a range of maintenance fun

42、ctions. Equipment may range from devices with no maintenance capabilities to devices with multiple maintenance capabilities. For this reason, the maintenance requirements at the S and T reference points are optional. Examples of user equipment realizations for basic access are shown in Figure 5. Fig

43、ure 5(a) shows a simple point-to-point connection between the NT1 and a single TE1. Figure 5(b) shows a passive bus between the NT1 and a TE1 and a Terminal Adaptor (TA). Figure 5(c) shows a star configuration with a TE1 and a TA connected to the NT1 via separate cabling. Figure 5(d) shows a simple

44、customer installation that combines the NT1 and TE1 functionality into one piece of equipment. Figure 5(e) shows a customer installation where the NT1 and NT2 functionality are combined into one piece of equipment. Figure 5(f) shows an NT2 connected to multiple NT1s and multiple TE1s. In Figures 5(e

45、) and 5(f), the NT2 and the NT1+NT2 may provide switching among TE1s. Maintenance at the U and S/T reference points is covered by this standard. Maintenance at the R reference point shown in Figures 5(b) and 5(c), between the TE2 (non-ISDN entity) and the TA is beyond the scope of this standard. In

46、most cases, the NI is located on the network side of the NT1. In certain cases, the NI may be located at a point that is functionally equivalent to a T-Reference Point. 4.4 Maintenance of the Customer Installation The maintenance of the Customer Installation (CI) is to allow the isolation and testin

47、g of customer-specific components and interfaces up to the Network Interface (NI). Two approaches used for maintenance of the CI are continuous monitoring and event-driven maintenance procedures. These procedures make use of physical layer overhead channels as specified in ATIS-0600605. The channels

48、 are referred to as S in the direction from the NT to the TE, and Q in the direction from the TE to the NT. Continuous monitoring includes the decoding by the customer equipment of monitoring information passed across the NI by the NT1. This monitoring information includes performance indicators and

49、 status indi-cators of the S/T and U Reference Point operation, and of the NT1 component, where present. The structure and organization of the S channels follows the organization shown in Figure 6. SC1 and SC2 are functionally independent maintenance sub-channels. SC1 is used to convey real-time information about status, performance, and maintenance functions (see Table 3). SC23is used to convey the U Reference Point operation mapping information (see Table 4). The maintenance uses of SC3, SC4, and SC5 are for further study. Event-driven maintenance pr
