  • Page 27: Topology

    Topology This chapter describes the possible deployment topologies of the SCE 2000. The Cisco SCE solution offers a number of basic topology options that permit the user to tailor the SCE Platform to fit the needs of a particular installation. An understanding of the various issues and options is crucial to designing, deploying, and configuring the topology that best meets the requirements of the individual system.

  • Page 28: Functionality

    Topology Considerations Number of links — The SCE 2000 may be connected to one or two FE links. This is relevant • for both Inline and Receive-Only topologies. • Redundancy — Must the system be designed to guarantee uninterrupted SCE 2000 functionality? If so, there must be a backup SCE 2000 Platform to assume operation in case of failure of the primary device.

  • Page 29: Link Continuity

    Chapter 3 Topology Link Continuity The bypass mechanism of the SCE 2000 allows traffic to continue to flow, if desired, even if the device itself is not functioning. Note that when the SCE 2000 is connected to the network through an external switch, a failure of the SCE 2000 does not affect the traffic flow, as the traffic continues to flow through the external switch.

  • Page 30: Physical Topologies

    Physical Topologies Physical Topologies Following are descriptions of a number of physical topologies that the SCE 2000 supports. Single SCE 2000 Topologies A single SCE 2000 supports both single FE link and dual FE link topologies. Single Link: Inline Topology Typically, the SCE 2000 is connected in a full duplex FE link between two devices (Router, BRAS, etc.).
  • Page 31 Chapter 3 Topology Single Link: Receive-only Topology In this topology, an external switch resides physically on the FE link between the subscribers and the network. The traffic passes through the external switch, which splits traffic to the SCE 2000. The SCE 2000, therefore, only receives traffic and does not transmit. Figure 3-2: Single SCE Platform Single Link: Receive-Only Topology When configuring the SCE 2000, an external switch topology is referred to as “receive-only”...
  • Page 32 Chapter 3 Topology Physical Topologies Dual link: Inline Installation In this topology, one SCE 2000 is connected inline in two full duplex, FE links. In case the two links are load-shared, asymmetrical routing might occur, and some of the flows may be split, i.e.

  • Page 33: Two Cascaded Sce 2000S For Dual Links

    Chapter 3 Topology Dual Link: Receive-Only Topology In this topology, one SCE 2000 is connected in receive-only mode to two full duplex, FE links using external switchs. If the two links are load-shared, asymmetrical routing might occur, and some of the flows may be split, i.e. the upstream packets of the flow go on one link, and the downstream packets go on the other link.

  • Page 34: Topology-Related Parameters

    Physical Topologies Two Cascaded SCE 2000s: Inline Topology This topology allows both control and monitoring functionality where redundancy is required and “inline” connection is used. The two SCE 2000s are cascaded, so the primary SCE 2000 processes the traffic of the two links, while the secondary SCE 2000 only bypasses the traffic of its links to the primary SCE 2000 for processing, and then bypasses the processed traffic back to the link.

  • Page 35: Sce 2000 Configuration

    Chapter 3 Topology SCE 2000 Configuration There are four topology-related parameters: Connection mode — Can be any one of the following, depending on the physical installation • of the SCE 2000 (Refer to Connection Mode Parameter (on page 3-9)): Inline — single SCE 2000 inline •...

  • Page 36: Physically Connected Links Parameter

    Physical Topologies Physically Connected Links Parameter If the system consists of more than one device, this parameter defines which link is connected to this SCE 2000. Currently the system supports a maximum of two links, which are designated link 0 and link 1. Priority In a cascade topology, the user must define the priority of each SCE 2000.
