Chapter 1 Overview
Chapter 1 Overview
1.1 Brief Introduction
Quidway AR 28 Series Routers are intended for use on enterprise-level networks, including seven models: AR 28-09, 28-10, 28-11, 28-30, 28-31, 28-40, and 28-80. Depending on the network size, Quidway AR 28 Series Routers can either be core routers on medium-and-small-sized enterprise networks, or access routers for network branches on some large-sized enterprise networks. Quidway AR 28 Series Routers adopt modular design and provide multiple MIMs (Multifunctional Interface Modules) and SICs (Smart Interface Cards). In addition, except for AR 28-09, they provide two host types: AC-powered and DC-powered. Therefore, Quidway AR 28 Series Routers are suitable for the application on the carrier-level networks, such as telecom management networks and billing networks. Quidway AR 28 Series Routers adopt high speed PowerPC microprocessor and the VRP (Versatile Routing Platform), a network operation system platform developed by Huawei Technologies. Besides the benefit of simple configuration, VRP provides rich network security features, and supports terminal access, SNA (Systems Network Architecture)/DLSw (Data-Link Switching), IP multicast, ATM, MPLS and abundant QoS (Quality of Service) features. Thereby, Quidway AR 28 Series Routers can operate together with other Quidway series routers and Ethernet switches to provide overall end-to-end network solutions for medium-and-large-sized enterprises. Quidway AR 28 Series Routers provide the following features:
I. High-performance processor
Quidway AR 28 Series Routers use high-performance processors to process all the integrated interface data integrated. All the performance indices, such as packet processing capacity, maximum traffic on interfaces, delay, frame drop rate, restoration period due to overloading of the system and system reset period, can meet users requirements.
II. Multiple interface card/interface module options

Quidway AR 28 Series provides SIC slots (only AR 28-09/28-10/28-11 provides SIC slots) and MIM slot, where you can install various types of SICs and MIMs. The available interfaces include synchronous/asynchronous serial interface, asynchronous serial interface, AM interface,T1/cT1/PRI interface, E1/cE1/PRI interface, E3/T3 interface, BRI S/T and U interfaces,, 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet interface (including
1-1
Chapter 1 Overview
circuit interface and fiber interface), ADSL interface, ATM interface, and so on. The user can change or extend SICs or MIMs as needed. Thereby, the investment that has been made can be protected to the maximum degree.
III. Supporting multiple channels of asynchronous serial interface access

Connected to PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) via the asynchronous serial interface, the router can work as a small Internet access server. With an analog Modem interface card (options: SIC-1AM/2AM and 6AM/12AM), the router can be directly connected to PSTN to serve as a small access server.
IV. Support ADSL/ATM/MPLS features

ADSL is a simple but highly-efficient broadband technology that achieves the maximum data transmission capacity over existing copper wiring by using the digital code modulation technology. The ADSL module for AR 28 Series allows the medium-to-small-sized enterprises to reach the DSLAM equipment via PSTN and then access the Internet. ATM transmits, multiplexes, and switches information in cells. AR 28 Series Routers provide 155 Mbps ATM module, support AAL5, and offer traffic services like CBR, VBR and UBR. Hence, such routers are well-suited to the high-speed data service, transmission of large packets, and interconnection between midsize or small enterprise networks and ATM networks. MPLS, a combination of IP and ATM technologies, replaces the traffic identified by IP header with a short and length-fixed label, based on which a router makes the forwarding decision. It can provide faster forwarding speed, get support from IP routed protocols, and control protocols, thus satisfying the requirements that various new applications put on the network. MPLS VPN is a VPN technology that implements the interconnection of private networks via Label Switched Paths (LSPs). As LSP is a tunnel across the public network on its own, MPLS has an inherent advantage in terms of VPN implementation. AR 28 series Routers usually act as Label Edge Routers (LERs) to implement service classification, label distribution, encapsulation, and multi-label peel-off by connecting an MPLS domain to a non-MPLS domain or connecting MPLS domains of different service providers.
V. Providing Ethernet access solution

By extending SICs and MIMs, Quidway AR 28 Series Routers can provide multiple forms of Ethernet interfaces, such as fiber interface/circuit interface, 10/100/1000Mbps interface. Thereby, the networking capability of the router can be significantly improved.
1-2
Chapter 1 Overview
VI. Data security

Supports ID authentication protocols, including PAP (Password Authentication Protocol), CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol), data RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial in User Service). Implements firewall to prevent invasions from external networks. Supports VPN (Virtual Private Network, including GRE, L2TP, Huawei dynamic VPN and MPLS L2/L3 VPN) and provides IPSec (IP Security) and IKE (Internet Key Exchange) technologies. Hence, the security of the user private network in the Internet environment can be guaranteed. Provides backup solutions based on the backup center technology.
VII. Online upgrading the software version

512 KB Boot ROM and 32 MB Flash memory provide the user with adequate physical carrier to upgrade the software online, add new features, and extend new functions according to market demands.
VIII. Chassis
Quidway AR 28 Series Router adopts integrated structure design. It performs excellently on heat dissipation, EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) and safety.

Chapter 3 Installation Preparation

3.1 Requirements on Environment
AR 28 Series must be used indoors. To ensure the normal operation and prolong their service life, the following requirements for installation site must be met.
3.1.1 Requirements on Temperature/Humidity

Certain requirements on temperature and humidity in the equipment room shall be met. If the relative humidity is too high, the insulation materials in it will deteriorate easily or even lead to electric leakage. Sometimes this will result in change to the mechanical performance of the materials and rusting of the metal components. If the relative humidity is too low, the fastening screw will become loosen due to shrinkage of the isolation spacer. In an environment with dry climate, static electricity may be produced, putting the CMOS of the router to risk. High temperature is of the greatest risk: for it will significantly degrade the routers reliability, speed up aging process of the insulating materials, and shorten the service life of the router. The requirements on the temperature and humidity for AR 28 Series are shown in Table 3-1: Table 3-1 Humidity requirements in the equipment room Temperature 0oC to 40oC 10% to 90% Relative humidity
3.1.2 Requirements on Cleanness

Dust is harmful to the safe operation of the Router. Dust on the chassis may result in static absorption, thus causing poor contact of the metal connection components or points. Especially under the condition of low indoor humidity, dust is easier to be absorbed, which not only shortens the operational lifetime of the equipment, but also results in communication failure. There should not be explosive, conductive, magnetic and corrosive dust in the equipment room where Quidway AR 28 Series Routers are located, and the dust concentration should meet the following requirements:
3-1
Table 3-2 Limitation on dust content in equipment room Mechanical active material Dust particle Note: Dust particle Diameter 5m Unit particle/m 3 x 104 (No visible dust on desk in three days) Content
Besides the dust specifications, the equipment room of the Router should also meet the rigorous requirements for the content of salt, acid and sulfide. These harmful gases could accelerate the metal erosion and aging process of some parts. The specific limits of these harmful gases are given in the following table. Table 3-3 Harmful gas limits in an equipment room Gas SO2 H2S NH3 Cl2 0.2 0.006 0.05 0.01 Max. (mg/m3)
3.1.3 Requirements on Electrostatic Discharge Prevention

Although many antistatic considerations have been given to AR 28 Series, damage to the routers circuit or even the whole equipment may still happen when the static electricity exceeds the tolerance threshold. In the communication network to which the routers are connected, static induction mainly comes from: External electric fields such as outdoor high voltage power line or thunder. Internal environment like flooring materials or the whole equipment structure. Thus, the following should be considered to safeguard the equipment against the ESD: Make sure that the equipment and the floor are well grounded. Make sure that dust-proof measures are taken. Maintain an appropriate humidity and temperature. Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap and uniform when contacting the circuit board. Place the uninstalled circuit board on the antistatic workbench, with its face upward, or put it into the static shielding bag.
3-2
When observing or removing the uninstalled circuit board, please touch the edge of the circuit board, and avoid contacting the devices on it.
3.1.4 Requirements on Electromagnetic Environment

The interference sources, no matter where they come from, affect the routers with capacitance coupling, inductance coupling, radiation of electromagnetic wave, common impedance (including the grounding system) or conducting line (power line, signal line and transmission line etc.). So the following should be considered: Take effective measures to prevent the power system from being interfered with by the power grid system. Keep the router far away from the radio launcher, radar launcher, and high-frequency devices working in high currents. Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary.
3.1.5 Requirements on Preventing Lightning

Although many measures have been taken to protect AR 28-30/28-31/28-40/28-80 Series from lightning, if the lightning intensity exceeds a certain range, damage to the router may still happen. To protect the router from lightning better, the following should be considered: Ensure the PGND wire of the chassis is well grounded. Ensure the ground point of the socket of AC power supply is well grounded. To enhance the lightning protection capability of the power supply, a lightning arrester could be installed at the input end of the power supply. As for the signal line outdoors to which the interface modules of AR 28 Series routers are connected, such as ISDN line, telephone line, E1/T1 line, etc, a special lightning arrester should be installed at the input end of the signal line to enhance the lightning protection capability.
3.1.6 Requirements on Workbench

No matter whether you are to install the router in the cabinet or directly place it on the workbench, it is necessary to ensure that: There is spacing reserved at the air inlet and outlet in the router so as to facilitate the radiation of the router cabinet. The cabinet and workbench have good radiation systems. The cabinet and workbench are firm enough to support the router and other installation accessories. The cabinet and workbench are well grounded.
3-3
3.2 Precautions
Routers play a key role in data communications network. Please pay attention to the following:
Warning: It indicates that this operation is incorrect and may seriously damage the router or endanger the operator. Please follow the correct operation procedures for sake of safety.
Caution: It indicates that during the installation and usage of the router, the operation needs attention. This operation is incorrect and perhaps will affect the normal operation of the router.
Please follow the following safety recommendations during the installation and use of the router: Keep the router away from any wet place or heat source. Make sure that the router is normally grounded. Please wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap before installation , and make sure one end of it well contacts your skin, and the other end is well grounded. Do not hot swap the interface modules of the router and any cable. Correctly connect the interface cable for the router. Do not connect the telephone cable (including the ISDN cable) to the AUX port or the console port. Always use Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS).

4.2.3 Installing the Router on a Workbench

In many circumstances, you may not own a 19-inch standard rack. Usually, the router will be installed on a clean workbench. The operations are very simple, but still, you should be aware of the following items: Ensure the stability and well-grounding of the workbench. Leave a space of 10cm around the router for heat dissipation. Do not place heavy objects on the router.
4.3 Connecting the PGND Wire
Warning: The normal connection of the PGND wire is an important guard against the lightning and interference. Therefore, the user must first correctly connect the PGND wire before installing and using the device.
The power input end of Quidway AR 28 Series Router is connected to a noise filter. The neutral point of the noise filter is directly connected to the chassis and is called protection ground (PGND). The PGND wire must be well grounded, so as to safely conduct the faradism and leaky electricity to the earth ground, and thereby improve the capability of the whole device to guard against the electromagnetic interference. This PGND wire can also protect the router against the lightning caused by the connection with the external network lines, such as E1/T1 line, ISDN/PSTN line. The grounding screw of Quidway AR 28 Series Router, which is marked with grounding label, is located near the AC power socket and its switch on the rear pannel of the chassis, as shown in the following figure:
Power switch AC input Grounding screw
Figure 4-5 Grounding screw of the router
4-5
Use a PGND wire to connect the screw to the earth ground, and the grounding resistance should not be greater than 5-ohm. Likewise, if the router is installed in a 19-inch standard rack, this rack is required to be grounded too.
Caution: When the router is in normal operation, it is required to be well grounded. Otherwise, the router cannot reliably avoid lightning, which may damage the router itself and even the peer device.
4.4 Connecting the power cord

The user is provided with two types of Quidway AR 28 Series Routers: AC-powered and DC-powered. Except for the input power, these two types have exactly the same features and functions.

4.6 Connecting Router to the LAN

I. Introduction to the Ethernet interface
Quidway AR 28 Series Routers provide fixed 100BASE-TX FE interface(s). In addition, the user can use slot 0 and slot 1 for 100BASE-TX FE interface extension. For the interface attributes, refer to Table 4-6.: Table 4-6 Attributes of the Ethernet interface Attribute Connector Interface Operating mode RJ45 MDI 10/100Mbps auto-sensing Full duplex/half duplex Description
Note: Ethernet MDI (Media Dependent Interface) is the typical Ethernet interface on ordinary network cards. MDIX is crossover media-dependent interface, which is generally used on Hubs or LAN switches.
II. Ethernet cable

100BASE-TX Ethernet interface usually uses Category-5 twisted pair as shown in the following figure:
Figure 4-10 Ethernet cable assembly

4-10
The Ethernet cables are classified into straight-through cable and crossover cable. They are introduced respectively as follows: The wire sequences of the twisted pair cable crimped by the RJ45 connectors at both ends of the cable are totally the same. It is used to connect the terminal equipment, such as PCs and routers to HUBs or LAN Switches. Straight-through cables are delivered along with the router. The wire sequences of the twisted pair wires crimped by the RJ45 connectors at both ends of the cable are different. It is used to connect the terminal equipment (such as PCs) to the terminal equipment (such as PCs). If needed, the user can make such cables by himself.
Caution: When making the cable, use the shielded cable to ensure EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility).
III. Connection of the Ethernet cable
Caution: Prior to connection, please identify the mark on the interface in order to plug correctly. While connecting the Ethernet cable to a LAN Switch, plug the cable into the 10/100BASE-T interface marked with MDIX.
Follow the steps below to connect the Ethernet cable (taking LAN0/1 as an example): Step1: While connecting the Router with a PC or a Router, please use the crossover cable, plug one end of the cable to an Ethernet interface of the Router, and plug another end to a PC or a Router.

4.7 Connecting Router to the WAN

Quidway AR 28 Series Routers provide multiple types of WAN interfaces, and the fixed WAN interfaces include an AUX port and a WAN interface (synchronous/asynchronous serial interface). This section describes the connection of the two interfaces. For the connection of WAN interface provided by the SIC/MIM, please refer to the Low-End and Mid-Range Series Routers Interface Card and Interface Module Manual.
4.7.1 Connecting the AUX port to the Modem

I. Introduction to the AUX port
As an RS232-compliant asynchronous serial interface, the AUX port can be used as the backup of other WAN interface in the dial-up mode. In the event that the console port fails, the AUX port can serve as a console port. For the attributes of the AUX port, please refer to Table 4-7. Table 4-7 Attributes of the AUX port Attribute Connector Interface standard Baud rate RJ45 RS232 300 to 115.2 kbps Modem dial-up Services supported Backup Operating as the console port when the CON fails Description
II. AUX cable

AUX cable is an 8-core shielded cable. One end of the cable is an RJ45 connector, which can be plugged into the AUX port of the device. The other end is furnished at the same time with a DB9 (male) connector and a DB25 (male) connector. The user can choose either of them to plug into the serial port of Modem as needed.
4-12
Figure 4-11 AUX cable assembly
III. Connecting the AUX cable

Follow these steps to connect the AUX cable: Step 1: Plug the RJ45 connector of the AUX cable into the AUX port of the router. Step 2: Connect the DB25 or DB9 connector of the AUX cable to the serial interface of the analog Modem. In general, the AUX port is used for remote configuration or dial-up backup. The local Modem is first connected to the remote Modem through PSTN, and then to the remote device.
4.7.2 Connecting the WAN interface to DSU/CSU

I. Introduction to the synchronous/asynchronous serial interface
The fixed WAN interface of Quidway AR 28 Series Router is a
synchronous/asynchronous serial interface, which is usually used for the connection with a WAN device, such as a Modem or CSU/DSU. It can operate in the synchronous/asynchronous mode or DTE/DCE mode, depending on the application. For the attributes of the interface, please refer to Table 4-8 Table 4-8 Attributes of the synchronous/asynchronous serial interface Attribute Connector type Interface standard and operating mode Minimum baud rate (bps) DB50 V.24 DTE, DCE 1200 V.35 DTE, 1200 DCE 1200 RS232 300 Description Synchronous Asynchronous

1)
Synchronous/Asynchronous mode
Synchronous/Asynchronous serial interface can work in either synchronous or asynchronous mode. Different signaling standards are supported in these two modes. V.35 and V.24 (RS232) support synchronous operating mode, while V.24 (RS232), support the asynchronous operating mode. The maximum transmission distance and baud rate of the signal vary with the operating mode. Table 4-9 Transmission rate and transmission distance of V.24 (RS232)/V.35 cable V.24 (RS232) Baud Rate (bps) 2400 4800 9600 19200 38400 64000 115200 60 60 30 30 20 20 10 Maximum Transmission Distance (m) Baud Rate (bps) 2400 4800 9600 19200 38400 56000 64000 2048000 V.35 Maximum Transmission Distance (m) 1250 625 312 156 78 60 50 30
Caution: The baud rate should not exceed 64kbps when the V.24 cable operates in synchronous mode.
2)
DTE and DCE
4-14
Synchronous serial interface can operate in both DTE and DCE mode. For two devices connected directly, one should operate in DTE mode, and the other should operate in DCE mode. The device at the DCE side provides a synchronous clock and specifies the transmission rate, while the device at the DTE side accepts the synchronous clock and communicates at the specified baud rate. Usually, the router serves as a DTE device. To determine whether the device connected to the router is a DTE or DCE, please refer to the manual that came with the device. Also the following table will be helpful in identifying DTE and DCE. Usually, the PC or Router serves as a DTE device and the Modem, Multiplexer or CSU/DSU serves as a DCE device. In general, the asynchronous serial interface is connected to an external Modem or a Terminal Adapter (TA) to work as the dial-up interface. In this case, it is unnecessary to determine whether the device is DTE or DCE, and just choose an appropriate baud rate. For the operating mode configuration of the synchronous/asynchronous serial interface, please refer to VRP3 Operation Manual.
II. Synchronous/Asynchronous serial interface cable

The WAN interface of the router is a DB50 receptacle. Proper connection cable needs to be selected for the protocol applied. By far, 4 types of synchronous/asynchronous serial interface cables are available. One end of all the 4 types of cables is DB50 connector, the other end (network end) varies with the cable type, which can be: V.24 (RS232) DTE cable: DB25 (male) connector V.24 (RS232) DCE cable: DB25 (female) connector V.35 DTE cable: 34PIN (male) connector V.35 DCE cable: 34PIN (female) connector
Caution: The above 4 types of cables are optional. The user must purchase the needed cables along with the router. Otherwise, they will not be provided.
The following figures show the cable assembly of all 4 types: V.24 (RS232) DTE cable assembly

Caution: Do not hot swap the synchronous/asynchronous cable. Otherwise, the router or the connected remote equipment may be impaired.
Follow the steps below to connect the synchronous/asynchronous cable (taking the connection from WAN to DSU/CSU as an example): Step 1: Check that a proper synchronous/asynchronous cable is shipped with the router. Step 2: Plug the DB50 connector of the cable into the interface WAN on the router. Step 3: Connect the other end of the cable to the CSU/DSU device. (If the WAN adopts dial-up line, connect the cable to the serial interface of the analog Modem.
4.8 Checking after the Installation

During the installation of the router, it is necessary to perform the following installation checks before powering on the router: Whether there is enough space around the router for heat-dissipation, and whether the workbench is stable enough. Whether the power supply that the power cord connects to is compliant with that required by the router. Whether the PGND wire of the router is correctly connected. Whether the router is correctly connected to other devices, such as the console terminal.
Caution: The check after installation is very important. The stability, grounding of the router and power supply will directly affect the operation of the router.

5.2 Configuration Fundamentals of the Router

5.2.1 Basic Configuration Steps
In general, the configuration steps are as follows: Step 1: Before configuring the router, the networking requirements should be made specific, which include networking purpose, the role of the router in the network, the division of subnets, WAN type and transmission medium, the network security policy and reliability. Step 2: Based on the above requirements, draw a clear and integrated networking diagram. Step 3: Configure the WAN interface of the router. First, configure the physical operating parameters (e.g., the operating mode of the serial interface, baud rate and synchronous clock) of the interface according to the transmission medium of the WAN. For the dial-up interface, the user also needs to configure DCC parameters. Then, configure the link layer protocol encapsulated on the interface and the related operating parameters according to the WAN type. Step 4: Configure the IP addresses or IPX network numbers of all the interfaces on the router according to the division of the subnets. Step 5: Configure the routes. If it is necessary to enable a dynamic routing protocol, the user should configure the related operating parameters of the protocol. Step 6: If special security is required, perform the security configuration for the router. Step 7: If special reliability is required, perform the reliability configuration for the router.
5-6
Please see VRP3 Operation Manual for the configuration details of the protocols or functions of the router.
5.2.2 Command Line Interface

I. Characteristics of the command line interface
The command line interface of Quidway Series routers provides a number of configuration commands, which can be used to configure and manage the router. The command line interface has the following characteristics: Performs the local configuration through CON port. Performs the local or remote configuration through telnet command, which can be used to directly log on and manage other routers. Configures the router through the terminal (herein refers to the asynchronous interface, including those connected to the AUX port and AS port). Configures the hierarchical user protection (includes guest, operator, administrator) . Only administrator users are authorized to configure and manage the router, so that unauthorized users would not be able to invade the router illegally. Users can enter <?> anytime to get online help. Provides network diagnostic tools, such as Tracert and Ping, to quickly diagnose the availability of the network. Provides all kinds of detailed debugging information to diagnose network faults. The command line interpreter adopts fuzzy search for the keywords of the command. If the user enters the conflict-free keyword for a command, the command will be interpreted accordingly. For example, for a display command, the user can just enter <dis>.
II. Command line interface

The command line interface of Quidway Series routers provides plenty of configuration commands. Hierarchical user protection is adopted to prevent unauthorized users from illegal invading. In the system view, to facilitate the management of the router, all commands are grouped. Each group corresponds to a view (please see VRP3 Operation Manual for details). The user can use these commands to switch between different configuration views. In general, only certain commands can be executed under a particular view. But some common commands (such as ping, display current-configuration, interface) can be executed in all views.
5.2.3 Naming and Arranging Interfaces

1) Slot numbering
5-7
The models of AR 28 Series Routers that have fixed interfaces, such as AR 28-09/28-10/28-11/28-30/28-31, are special in slot numbering, as shown in the following figure:
SLOT3 SLOT2
SLOT0
SLOT1
Figure 5-6 Sequence of the slots on AR 28-09 Router
Note: The slot for the fixed interfaces (including Ethernet 0 and Serial 0) is SLOT0 on AR 28-09 Router. AR 28-10/28-11 Router has the same slot numbering as AR 28-09.

Figure 5-8 Sequence of the slots on AR 28-31 2) Interface numbering
In VRP3.3, interfaces are numbered with the two-dimension approach, following the rules listed below: Interface number is represented in the form of interface X/Y, with interface indicating the interface type, which can be serial, asynchronous, Ethernet, or any other type, X indicating the slot number, and Y the interface sequence number. As shown in the above figure, the interfaces on the same interface module have the same slot number (X). The interfaces of each type are numbered starting at 0. These interfaces are numbered according to the sequence numbers on the interface module, from left to right. Suppose a 2SA module and a 2S1B module are respectively installed in SLOT0 and SLOT1 on AR 28-80. The serial interfaces will be sequenced as follows: The serial interfaces on the 2SA module are respectively numbered Serial 0/0 and Serial 0/1. The serial interfaces on the 2S1B module are respectively numbered Serial 1/0, and Serial 1/1. Each interface can be configured in a particular view. For more information about interface configuration, refer to VRP3 Operation Manual.

Chapter 6 Router Maintenance

6.1 Introduction
The files managed by the Router are of 3 types: Boot ROM program files used by the Router to boot the application program files Application files (main software) Configuration files This chapter will introduce you with three methods: Application and Boot ROM programs upgrade via XModem Application program upgrade via TFTP Application program and configuration file upload/download via FTP
6.1.1 Boot Menu

Enter your choice(1-3):1
3)
Select an application to boot the router.
Routers with Flash over 8 MB provide dual image function. That is, the system defines three application files for booting the router by default: main application file, backup application file, and secure application file. If you have downloaded these three application files in Flash, the system will select one in sequence to boot the router. If you wish to change the sequence or the boot file, you can make modification in the Boot ROM menu. The default names, types, and select sequence of main, backup, and secure application files are described as follows: Main application file: default name main.bin, file type M. By default, the system utilizes this file to boot the router. Backup application file: default name backup.bin, file type B. The system utilizes this file to boot the router if the main file fails. Secure application file: default name secure.bin, file type S. The system utilizes it to boot the router if the backup file fails. The system prompts booting failure if the secure application file fails.
Note: Only the application files of M, B, and S types can be used to boot the system. Applications of N/A type, that is, non M, B, or S type, cannot be used to boot the system. The file names of the applications in Flash can be modified using commands after they are started. Refer to System Management for detailed commands. The file types of M, B, and N/A applications can be modified in Boot ROM menu, or by commands after the applications are started. The applications of S type do not allow modification in file type. Secure application file is the last precaution against system booting failure; therefore, it does not allow modification or adaptation from other files. You can only download it from Boot ROM and specify its name as secure.bin. If you use the rename command to change the secure file name after the system is booted, the file is removed from Flash and you need to download it again. Only one M file, one B file, and one S file can exist in Flash. For example, if a file is both M file and B file, it is impossible to have another M file or B file in Flash. If the file type of another file is changed to B, the file of both M and B must be changed to M file.
The following menu is displayed if you select 3 in the Boot ROM menu. Suppose four application files are stored in Flash, and their types are as shown below:
M=MAIN B=BACKUP S=SECURE

This menu provides options to upgrade, back up or restore Boot ROM program. See 6.1.2 Upgrading Application Program and Boot ROM through XModem Protocol and 6.1.3 Backing up and Restoring the Extended Segment of Boot ROM Program for details.
Caution: Routers that have Flash no more than 8MB do not provide dual image function. That is, their Boot ROM menus do not include the third or fourth item described above. It is recommended to upgrade the software under the guidance of the technical support personnel. In addition, when upgrading the router, note to match the version of the Boot ROM software with that of the main software.
6.1.2 Upgrading Application Program and Boot ROM through XModem Protocol
When upgrading the software through the XModem protocol, you can simply use the console port rather than building up another configuration environment.
I. Upgrading application program

Step 1: Enter the Boot menu (refer to the6.1.1 Boot Menu), press <1> to select the XModem protocol for downloading the application program. The following download speeds are available for the router:
Downloading application program from serial ... Please choose your download speed: 1: 9600 bps 2: 19200 bps 3: 38400 bps 4: 57600 bps 5: 115200 bps 6: Exit and reboot
6-4

Step 2: Select an appropriate download speed. For example, enter <5> to select the download speed 115200 bps and the router will prompt:
Download speed is 115200 bps. Change the terminal's speed to 115200 bps, and select XModem protocol. Press ENTER key when ready.
Step 3: According to the above information, change the baud rate set at the console terminal (refer to Figure 5-4) for keeping it in consistency with the selected software download baud rate. After that, disconnect the terminal (that is [Dial-in/Disconnect]), reconnect it (that is [Dial-in/Dialing]) and then press <Enter> to begin downloading. The system will prompt:
Downloading ... CCCCC
Note: After the baud rate at the console terminal is set, the new setting can become valid only if the terminal emulation program is disconnected and reconnected for at least once.
Step 4: Select [Transmit/send file] in the terminal window and the following dialog box will pop up:
Figure 6-1 Send File dialog box Step 5: Click <Browse>, select the application file to be downloaded, and set the protocol to Xmodem. Then click <Send>, and the system will pop up the following interface:

6.2.3 Replacing the DIMM

DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) is a component of routers main board, which can be upgraded and replaced as needed. In general, it needs to be upgraded in the following situations: In case of upgrading VRP, its necessary to expand the memory. If the size of routing table is too large, or there are some tasks demanding huge memory, its necessary to expand the memory.
Note: There is a limit on the times that you can install the DIMMs.
I. DIMM location in Quidway AR 28 Series Routers

While removing a DIMM, please make sure the type of main board and the exact position of the DIMM. The following figure illustrates the location of Boot ROM and SDRAM DIMM on main board (for AR 28-09/28-10/28-11).

Caution: You can only hold the non-conductive edge of the DIMM, which is prone to static damage due to improper operation. It is natural that the DIMMs are not easy to remove. Do not exercise too much pressure during your operation. Do not directly touch the components on the surface of the DIMM.
III. Install the DIMM

Step 1: Determine the DIMM location according toFigure 6-7/Figure 6-8. Step 2: Hold the non-conductive edge at the top of the DIMM, and place it in the DIMM slot. Step 3: Exercise adequate pressure on the DIMM and press it into the slot, and press the alligator clip at both sides of the slot towards the center. And the bumps on both ends of the clip will fit into the semicircular recesses at both sides of the DIMM. Please install all DIMM according to upper method.
6.2.4 Replacing the Boot ROM

In case Boot ROM is physically damaged, or irrecoverably faulty due to software error, you need to replace Boot ROM.
6-17
Caution: Do not replace Boot ROM at will. AR 28 Series provide Boot ROM online upgrading.
I. Determine the Boot ROM location on the main board

Please refer to Figure 6-7/Figure 6-8.
II. Replace Boot ROM

Step 1: Pull out Boot ROM from the socket on the main board with an extraction tool and put it into a static shielding bag. Step 2: Place the new Boot ROM into the socket. Be careful not to bend or damage the pins at the bottom of the Boot ROM. If the pins are bent, use sharp-nose pliers to straighten them. Align the edge of Boot ROM with that of the socket.
Caution: Make sure to align the edge of the socket with that of Boot ROM. Wrong installation direction may lead to damage to Boot ROM and socket. Before closing the chassis when you have replaced the necessary components, make sure that all the cables inside the router are combed neatly.
6.2.5 Closing the Chassis Cover
Caution: Roll up all the cables inside the Router and put them into the chassis before closing the chassis cover, so as to prevent them from being pressed or cut off.

Chapter 7 Troubleshooting
7.1 Troubleshooting of the Power System
1) Fault POWER LED is OFF. 2) Troubleshooting
Please check: Whether the power switch of the router is turned on. Whether the power supply switch is turned on. Whether the power cord of the router is properly connected. Whether the power supply matches the requirement of the router.
Caution: Do not hot swap the power cord. After having checked the items above, if the POWER LED is still OFF, please contact the agent.
7.2 Troubleshooting of the Configuration System

After the Power-On Self-Test (POST) of the router, if the system operates normally, the start-up information should be displayed on the console terminal. If the configuration system has some faults, the terminal may not display anything or may display only illegible characters.
I. Troubleshooting of nothing being displayed on the terminal

1) Fault
After the POST of the router, the terminal does not display any information. 2) Troubleshooting
Step 1: please check: Whether the power system is normal. Whether the console cable is connected correctly.
7-1
Step 2: If no problems are found after performing the above checks, it is likely to be the problem of the console cable or the terminal (e.g., the HyperTerminal) parameters. Please check the cable or the parameters.
II. Troubleshooting of displaying illegible characters on the terminal

1) Fault
After the POST of the router, the console terminal displays illegible characters. 2) Troubleshooting
Please verify whether the terminal (e.g., the HyperTerminal) parameter settings are as follows: Baud rate: 9600, Data bits: 8, Stop bit: 1, Parity: None, Flow control: None and Terminal emulation: VT100 If the parameter settings differ from the above values, please reconfigure.
7.3 Troubleshooting of SDRAM

I. Troubleshooting of nothing being displayed on the terminal
1) Fault
After the POST of the router, despite the normal power system (the POWER LED is ON) and proper connection of the console cable, there is no display on the console terminal. 2) Troubleshooting
If the user is sure that the power system and configuration system have no faults, please contact the agent of Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. With his consent, open the chassis to check whether the SDRAM has become loose. If that is the case, you may remove and reinstall the SDRAM. For the operation method, please refer to Section 6.2 Maintaining the Hardware in this manual.
II. Troubleshooting of repeated reboot

1) Fault
Fault 1: After the information Now testing memory... appears, the system restarts repeatedly. Fault 2: After displaying the information System now is Starting ..., the system restarts repeatedly, and sometimes gives a prompt message Copied program error. 2) Troubleshooting
Generally, such faults are caused by the damage to SDRAM. If the SDRAM is seriously damaged, the problem will be found while testing the memory, and the system will reboot. If the SDRAM is slightly damaged, the problem will be found during the process of system starting, and the system will reboot, giving the prompt message Copied program error.
7-2
The user can decide whether the SDRAM has fault by checking the LED status of the router. During the routers POST, the SLOT0 to 2 LEDs and SERIAL0 LED will be ON first. In this case, if the SLOT0 and SLOT1 LEDs light, it can be concluded that the SDRAM test has failed. If the SDRAM is damaged, replace it with a new one (before opening the chassis, please contact the agent of Huawei Technologies Co, Ltd. and get his permission to continue with the operation). For the operation method, please refer to Section 6.2 Maintain the Hardware in this manual.
7.4 Application Software Upgrade

I. Fault 1
1) Fault
When upgrading the VRP software using the TFTP approach, the system displays the following message:
Loading... tftpGet: Error occurred while transferring the file. An Error Occurred!:tftp transfer failed: error 0x43 download error!!! Something is wrong. Please check.
2)
Troubleshooting
The symptom described above means that the new software version has not been loaded. Fault isolation can be carried out from three aspects: Check the TFTP server to see whether information can be sent. If not, the problem is likely to result from an incorrectly-configured TFTP server IP address. In this case, make sure that IP address of the TFTP server is the IP address of the network interface on the PC, to which the Ethernet interface is connected. (For the procedure of selecting an Ethernet interface for TFTP upgrade on AR 28 Routers, refer to 6.1.4.) Run the winipcfg command and the system will prompt the IP address of the Ethernet interface. If Windows prompts The system detected conflict between the IP address xxxx and the system hardware address xxxx in this case, it is very likely that the IP address of the TFTP server was incorrectly assigned to the upgrading Ethernet interface on the Router. Check the TFTP server. If it prompts The system cannot find the specified file, , check whether the path set on the TFTP server and the file name (including the extension) of the application software set on the Router are correct. Upgrade the application software again after the problem is solved.
7-3
II. Fault 2
1) Fault
When upgrading the VRP software using the TFTP approach, and the system displays the following message:
Loading... NET download completed... read len = [05567609]
The downloaded software is not a valid version. Please download the correct version. Press <Enter> key when ready.
2)
Troubleshooting
AR 28 Series Routers should be loaded with different application software versions. The problem described above is likely to result from a mismatch between the application software version and the router model. In this case, contact your agent to obtain the correct software version and upgrade it again. If the improper software has been loaded, the Router cannot start or work correctly. In this case, select Xmodem or TFTP mode in the boot menu to restore/upgrade the software version (FTP upgrade mode cannot be used here). If similar symptoms present when upgrading the software with other approaches, solve the problem with reference to this example.
Note: The bar code labeled on the Router host and the MIM contains the relevant manufacturing and maintenance information. If you want to repair the device, inform your agent of the bar code on the problem device.
