This chapter describes cabling the Gigabit Ethernet ports for both one and two SCE 2000 topologies, and for configuring
Gigabit Ethernet (GBE) interface parameters. In a topology utilizing two SCE 2000s (cascade), this includes the cascade ports
as well as the line ports.
Warning Class 1 laser. Avoid exposure to radiation and do not stare into open aperture.
Note When installing a cascaded system, it is extremely important to follow the sequence of procedures outlined in
“Installing a Cascaded System” section on page 19.
SCE 2000 Connectivity Summary
Table 2 through Table 4 summarize SCE 2000 connectivity for basic topologies.
General Guidelines
•The SCE 2000 can be installed either inline or receive-only.
•Receive-only topologies use only receive fibers.
Note You can implement receive-only topologies using either an optical splitter or a switch. If you use a switch, it must
support SPAN functionality that includes separation between ingress and egress traffic and multiple SPAN-port
destinations.
•Subscriber and Network sides are indicated on the front panel of the SCE 2000.

Configuring GigabitEthernet Auto-Negotiation
By default, the SCE 2000 GBE line interface ports are configured with auto-negotiation disabled.
Note Auto-negotiation must be disabled when the SCE 2000 is deployed using an external optical splitter (receive-only
topology)
Note If you change any parameters, you must save the new configuration settings. Use the copy running-config startup-config
CLI command.
Step 1 At the SCE# prompt, type configure, and press Enter.
Enters the Global Configuration Mode.
Step 2 At the SCE (config)# prompt, type interface GigabitEthernet 0/portnumber, and press Enter.
- where portnumber is the number of the selected port (1-4).
Enters the GigabitEthernet Interface configuration mode for the specified GBE port.
Step 3 Type auto-negotiate and press Enter.
Enables auto-negotiation for the GBE interface.
Step 4 Type exit and press Enter.
Returns to Global Configuration Mode, from which you can enter the GigabitEthernet Interface configuration mode
for the remaining GBE ports.
Step 5 Repeat this procedure to configure auto-negotiation for the other GBE port interfaces.
Installing a Cascaded System
Step 1 Install both SCE 2000s, power them up, and perform the initial system configuration.
Step 2 Connect both SCE 2000s to the management station.
Step 3 Connect the cascade ports (see Table 4). The cascade ports must be connected directly in Layer 1 (dark fibers), not
through switches.
Step 4 Set topology configurations for each SCE 2000 using the connection-mode options.
Step 5 Make sure that the SCE 2000s have synchronized and active SCE 2000 was selected.
Step 6 If you want to start with bypass/sniffing, change the link mode to your required mode in both SCE 2000s on both links.
The bypass mode will be applied only to the active SCE 2000.
Step 7 Connect the traffic port of SCE 2000 #1. This will cause a momentary down time until the network elements from both
sides of the SCE 2000 auto-negotiate with it and start working.
Step 8 Connect the traffic port of SCE 2000 #2, this will cause a momentary down time until the network elements from both
sides of the SCE 2000 auto-negotiate with it and start working.
Step 9 When full control is needed, change the link mode on both SCE 2000s on both links to ‘forwarding’. It is recommended
to first configure the active SCE 2000 and then the standby.
Step 10 You can now start working with the Subscriber Manager.

6 Completing the Installation
This module explains how to verify link connectivity and how to install a Cisco service control application.
Examining the LEDs
•The GBE Link LED should be green. This indicates that an active connection exists.
•The GBE RX and TX LEDs (if flashing green) indicate that traffic is being received or transmitted by the SCE 2000 platform,
respectively.
Note In an inline topology, the RX and TX LEDs indicate that packets are being received and transmitted by the SCE
2000 platform.
•In optical splitter topologies, the RX LEDs are the sole indicators. The TX LEDs do not blink, because the TX is not
connected to the port in this topology.
Performing Final Installation Verification
Viewing Gigabit Ethernet Port Status
Step 1 At the SCE> prompt, type show interface GigabitEthernet 0/portnumber.
This displays the port link status.
The following example shows how to display a system response.
SCE>show interface GigabitEthernet 0/1
Auto negotiation configured: Enabled
Actual status:
Link is: ON
Auto negotiation: Enabled
Bandwidth (L1): 1000000 Kbps, Burst-size: 50000 bytes
Pseudo IP Address: Not Configured
physical mode : 0
Monitoring Traffic Using the Gigabit Ethernet Counters
In an inline topology, you can monitor traffic through the platform counters for both the RX and TX connections. As packets
flow through the Cisco SCE 2000 for both RX and TX, the counters increase.
However, in receive-only topologies, the counters for the TX do not increment because the SCE 2000 is only monitoring traffic,
and not re-transmitting traffic.
Step 1 At the SCE> prompt, type show interface GigabitEthernet 0/portnumber counters. The GigabitEthernet counters
appear.
Step 2 Use the output to verify that traffic is taking place. You can see that the counters increase, together with real-time packet
flow through the Cisco SCE 2000.
Remember, in bump-in-the-wire topology, both the RX and TX counters function as traffic monitors. For receive-only
topologies using an external splitter, only the RX counters apply.
