The picture below explains how the ES10XLa / ES26XLa interfaces to other devices and a SNMP
EMS.
Fig. 3.3.2: The ES10XLa interfacing with other equipment and a SNMP EMS.
In this figure the ES10XLa/ES26XLa with embedded NEC (upper right corner) is connected to
other (BKtel) devices via the RS485 interface. In the example there is an optical amplifier
OVxxxxb (without embedded NEC) in 19”-1RU housing, similar to the ES10/ES26, and in total 4
subracks interfacing to the RS485 bus. A variety of BKtel devices which can be mounted on
these subracks like EDFAs, optical switches, optical transmitters and receivers. For an actual
overview please refer to www.bktel.com or contact BKtel directly. All of these connected devices
only provide RS485 slave interfaces, since the NEC of the ES10XLa/ES26XLa is the dedicated
RS485 bus master, polling all other devices. The NEC (SNMP Proxy Agent) within the
ES10Xla/ES26XLa polls all devices and translates this information to Ethernet-HTTP and
Ethernet-SNMP.
3.3.1 Webbrowser Communication
Local management access on the embedded network element controller NEC-E (or NEC-E in
BK-mechanics) is executed with a Webbrowser by establishing the NEC-E IP address. Besides
the Webbrowser no other software is necessary. The access computer is only in need of an
Ethernet interface; no dongles are required. If the NEC-E is not connected to a LAN/WAN, one
can directly link the computer with the embedded NEC-E (or NEC-E in BK-mechanics) by
crossed RJ45 cable.
