MINI-LINK LH

[spatkad]

Hi all,

Does any one of you have Alex library and software baseline for mini-Link M11A(MINI-LINK TN 4.4FP) or M11B(MINI-LINK TN 4.5), please share them with us because i think the library has more details about the Mini-Link LH.

Thanks

[Wizeguy]

I think you are a bit ahead in time.
I have not heard of any TN4.4FP, TN4.5 nor MINI-LINK LH being released yet.
Possibly you will be able to find documentation and such, but no HW or software belonging to any of the mentioned releases.

Only available now in R4-track are TN4.4.
It is also likely to come a MINI-LINK Craft aligned with the TN4.4FP.
The one used for TN4.4 are 2.10.

Dear Wizeguy,

In the E******* microwave release overview, it is clearly indicated that MINI-LINK TN4.4FP (M11A) was released in the first quater of this year(between 2010 and early 2011).
M11A also marks the first release of MINI-LINK LH. It is also indicated In the E******* microwave release overview that in the middle of 2011 M11B will be released.

Please be informed that there is Mini-Link craft 2.11 that works for TN4.4 too.

I believe some Alex libraries of the new MINI-LINK releases are out there some how.

Thanks

[Charlie123]

Sorry forget psw for Eric portfolio - psw is E*******.

Just something more for transmission guys in next attachment, maybe you know about it.
Looks from attached, this is the future for high capacity transmission, even E/// is not the first one. No psw.

Note, that I'm not E/// employee :p

Hi Charlie123,

i have downloaded the attached Eric_portfolio_04-2011.zip but i requires a password. i entered MiniLink_LH but it cannot unzip the document. Can you provide us with a password for the Eric_portfolio_04-2011.zip

Dear All MW specialists,
The first - thx for shared,
the second - sorry for offtop, could you please provide us a similar portfolio or roadmap by Ceragon
thx in advance

[spatkad]

Hi,

please specify what you need more precisely.

Anyway check attachment.


Dear Charlie123,

What i need specifically are the Alex libraries for the following:

-> MINI-LINK TN 4.4FP
-> MINI-LINK TN 4.5
-> Software baseline for MINI-LINK TN 4.4FP
-> Software baseline for MINI-LINK TN 4.5
-> MINI-LINK 4.4 for MINI-LINK CN 210 1.0, MINI-LINK CN 500 2.1 and MINI-LINK CN 1010 1.1
-> M11B for compact Node 510
-> M11A for MINI-LINK LH 1.0
-> M11B for MINI-LINK LH 1.1

I believe the above releases are already out.

If you also have software baselines for the above releases, then we will be very grateful if you shared them with us


Thanks,:handshake

spatkad:victory:

[harrypotter]

I agree.. Also dont forget the ceragon please...

[Charlie123]

Hello guys,

unfortunatelly I don't have doc's you requested.
ML TN 4.4FP should be already released, for 4.5 I'm not sure.

Regarding Ceragon, I have only doc's from 2009 :( which are old.

However if I will have something newer, for sure will be shared.

Yes, I know ML-Craft 2.11 works for TN4.4 too, the 2.10 was the one released with TN4.4.
2.11 is backwards compatible wit TN, but released for CN support.

You are right about the planned releases, but fact remains. You will not find any TN4.4FP nor LH SW or HW yet since the have not been released.

TN 4.4FP is released.

[Wizeguy]

The GA will have R22B, so you are right but won't find the R22A as downloadable SW.

[spatkad]

Wizeguy,

you are sure of what you are saying. the " we won't find the R22A as downloadable SW" is from your confident sure mind. it is like you are the guy who configured security on the e******* storage server.

Don't be surprised when you see what am looking for in due time.

:rolleyes:

[prle]

The GA will have R22B, so you are right but won't find the R22A as downloadable SW.

Really?
If I tell you, that my company got it (from E*******) one week ago, you will still claim that it can't be downloaded?

[spatkad]

The GA will have R22B, so you are right but won't find the R22A as downloadable SW.

Man it is like Wizeguy works for e******* and he over sees what is released. it seems he is the e******* storage server gate keeper. that is why he assures us"The GA will have R22B, so you are right but won't find the R22A as downloadable SW."

Wizeguy, be assured that there back doors to all systems:rolleyes:

[ramy911us]

so,long story short,will someone be kind enough to share this new release with us?

[harrypotter]

Please share... everyone will be happy to have it and gain your thanks and rep... lets help...

[Wizeguy]

Eh, I confess I was wrong.
There seem to be a R22A available for some after all.
I am looking forward to see what will appear next....my information source don't seem trustworthy though.

[spatkad]

Dear all,

If any one has Alex library and software baseline for mini-Link TN 4.4FP, please share it with us

Sorry to disapoint you, but R21D is the TN4.4 something, not TN4.4FP.
TN4.4FP will be R22Bxx or even a higher letter...

You can take your time as you explain. To speed up the explanation, you can use video tutorials. The DCN over Vlan you already explained in the forum.

if possible append the e******* video tutorials. they will make your explanation quick

Hi,
I do not have any videos available.
I will try to make this as a very short an simple guide.
Let me know if it is too simple:

Basic Layer 1 setup in TN4.4FP.
All other settings are considered to be done already.
(DCN, IP-addresses, RL config etc)

This guide is without using wizards.
Remeber to click save after each operation.

1. Expand the Node and then the Ethernet level of the Management tree in MINI-LINK Craft,
by clicking on the "+" signe beside node and then Ethernet.
2. Expand LAN insterfaces and right click on the LAN interface of your choice and select "configure" from the menu.
3. Inteface usage -> connect to layer 1, check that admin status is set to up.
4. Expand your NPU tree and right click on one RL-IME -> select configure
(Alternative for PDH-IME, do the same for PDH-IME under ETU3B/2B)
5. Configure your IME group, RL: add Radio links to be used and PDH: E1:s to be used.
6. Expand the WAN interfaces and right click on the WAN to be used -> select configure general.
Interface usage -> Layer 1. check that admin status is set to up.
7. Click in "Layer 1 connection" under Ethernet in Management tree and then on "add button" at the rightmost corner.
Now select the LAN and WAN interfaces to connect.
8. Done, connection should be up.
Remaining now is to configure QoS, etc.

Good luck

Ah, but I was planning for the L2 customer bridge setting next time.
When I have assembled enough time and will :)

[Wizeguy]

To follow up on my previous guide for L1 confige, here comes:

2. Right click on Ethernet Switch -> General select customer bridge switch mode
3. Expand LAN insterfaces and right click on the LAN interface of your choice and select "configure" from the menu.
4. Inteface usage -> connect to port 1, check that admin status is set to up.
5. Right click on switch port 1 and select UNI or I-NNI, suggest to use UNI.
6. Expand your NPU tree and right click on one RL-IME -> select configure
(Alternative for PDH-IME, do the same for PDH-IME under ETU3B/2B)
7. Configure your IME group, RL: add Radio links to be used and PDH: E1:s to be used.
8. Expand the WAN interfaces and right click on the WAN to be used -> select configure general.

Hi,
This is my hardware: AMM 20P, NPU1 C with 3 lan ports( 1 lan and 2 SFP),MMU2 H with XPIC on a 2+0 config using dual polarized antenna
Bandwith needed : 88 mbps. My problem now is how am i going to transfer the ethernet which will pass through 3 hops.
Two sites on the center to reach the destination.
Experts, I really need your help.

Are we talking MINI-LINK LH or a MINI-LINK TN system here?
For TN I would guess that you will have the two repeater hops configured inside the same TN AMM.
You will the just have to do VLAN config where WAN ports are interconnected with the same VLAN id for L2.
L1 you just interconnect WAN:s via L1 connection instead.

MINI-LINK LH repeater sites will most likely be configured with two AMM:s that need to be interconnected vis Ethernet cable.

For the remaining L1 or L2 config, just view my previous replies in this thread.

Ping end to end using laptop is fine. Lan Tester at a speed of 100 is ok but when using 1000, no tx/rx.

There are very large number of combinations of settings and configurations possible here and you don't give much to go on.
But I will try to help you.
Do you have this problem for all your LAN interfaces, I would guess that 1/11/6 is an electrical interface and you have optical SFP:s in 1/11/4 and 1/11/5, right?

What version of TN are you running?
And what equipment do you have, is it really LH or is it a TN?

Yes,i encounter same problem for all 3 ports. Were using TN ,4.4FP. Am still on the process of trying every combinations and as of now,none of them works.
I was given the deadline until Monday:confused: to fixed everything. God Bless.

To help you, I need you to answer my q:s.
Was I correct in assuming that you use both electrical and optical LAN interfaces?
Have you changed any thing from default on the interfaces?
I mean they should be auto-negotiation mode etc. as default.
What settings on the instrument and router?
Have you tried fixed mode also on both ends, you should never have auto in on end and fixed in the other on a Ethernet cable link.

On the start,i did not touch anything on the default values,but later changed some values to experiment. I have a conversation with the guy incharge of the router. And this is what i was told about,that what ever settings i input will always be transparent on the router.Seems to act like a mirror, which i doubt so,because if that is the case then, we should not be expriencing problems like this. Maybe this guy is just too lazy to act accordingly.
For the settings,what ever settings on one end is just the same on the other end.
No alrms are generated on both Lan and Wan interface. All seems to be fine.iT is just that,traffic cant pass though.
Got to go,hopefully all will be fixed:):):)...

Hello everybody!
As I see this thread is stacked ...

I heard that on 4.4FP is many bugs in Traffic routing/handling part. So don't think that it's good idea to use it.

P.S. Any explanation's via ICQ or Skype.

BR
vimcma

[Wizeguy]

The issues you refer to regarding Traffic routing/handling, is most likely a known bug in MINI-LINK Craft.
So it is not the Node Software according to my sources....
Upgrade to MINI-LINK Craft 2.19 or later.

[shabeeh]

Dear
Do you have Mini-link craft 2.19 or later

[vimcma]

to Wizwguy

no it is exactly regarding traffic handling by node with 4.4FP especially for that were written 4.4FP2 by the way ... I heard it from real sources.

[Wizeguy]

So is it solved in the latest TN4.4Fp.3 Then?
And do you mean that 4.4FP.2 is the same as LH?

[vimcma]

Dear Wizeguy I didn't test it by my self yet, I mean 4.4FP3.
4.4FP2 is for ML TN.

[boza]

Mini-link craft 2.19 is the latest upgrade version up till now.
Can get it on:
