h1. Juniper ACX2100

This is an Access Router that can carry up to 16x E1/T1 lines over SAToP/MPLS/Ethernet

h2. Pseudowire formats

The ACX2100 supports the following formats:

# SAToP (structure agnostic TDM over packet)

# Cisco-HDLC compatible framing

# PPP

# Inverse ATM Multiplex (used in classic 3G NodeB with Iub over ATM)

h3. SAToP

In this format, the pseudowire format consists of 256 bytes unaligned E1 bitstream sent every 1ms.

Layer stacking is:

* 14-byte Ethernet II, ethtype MPLS (0x8847)

* 4-byte MPLS header containing the label

* 4-byte Pseudowire Ethernet Control Word containing sequence number

h2. Configuration related to E1/T1 pseudowires

The ACX2100 supports so-called _pseudowires_ which is the option of encapsulating/transporting E1/T1 circuits via Ethernet.  Contrary to other equipment, the ACX seems to be constrained to transport over MPLS only.

h3. Normal usage with OSPF, LDP and RSVP

First, the ACX establishes dynamic routing to its peers via OSPF. You can interface this to a Linux machine running FRR ospfd.

Second, the ACX establishes LDP.  You can interface this to a Linux machine running FRR ldpd.

Third, the ACX uses RSVP to configure the lables used for the individual pseudowires. There is currently no known Linux implementation that understands the specific RSVP use case for E1 pseudowires.

h4. Configuration on ACX side

<pre>

chassis {

    fpc 0 {

        pic 0 {

            framing e1;

        }

    }

}

interfaces {

    ce1-0/0/0 {

        no-partition interface-type e1;

    }

    e1-0/0/0 {

        encapsulation satop;

        unit 0;

    }

    ge-1/0/0 {

        unit 0 {

            family inet {

                address 20.1.1.2/24;

            }

            family mpls;

        }

    }

}

protocols {

    rsvp {

        traceoptions {

            file rsvp-log;

            flag all;

        }

        interface ge-1/0/0.0;

    }

    mpls {

        no-cspf;

        label-switched-path PE1-to-PE2 {

            to 20.1.1.222;

        }

        interface ge-1/0/0.0;

    }

    ospf {

        area 0.0.0.0 {

            interface ge-1/0/0.0;

        }

    }

    ldp {

        traceoptions {

            file ldp-log;

            flag all;

        }

        interface ge-1/0/0.0;

    }                                   

    l2circuit {

        neighbor 20.1.1.222 {

            interface e1-0/0/0.0 {

                virtual-circuit-id 1;

            }

        }

    }

}

</pre>

h3. static pseudowires

Much less documented/publicized, one can also simply crate a "static" label configuration for a  given l2circuit:

Example:

<pre>

protocols { 

    l2circuit {

        neighbor 20.1.1.222 {

            interface e1-0/0/0.0 {

                static {

                    incoming-label 1000023;

                    outgoing-label 23;

                    send-oam;

                }

                virtual-circuit-id 1;

            }

        }

    }

}

</pre>

In this configuration the E1 interface 0/0/0 is associated with the incoming label 1000023 and outgoing label 23.  You can send and receive the pseudowire payload using the above-mentioned mpls labels. The Ethernet destination address is the one associated with the neighboring router 20.1.1.122.
