Foreword
This European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee

Digital Hierarchy (PDH) multiplexing structure.

Introduction
Network Operators have extensive deployments of PDH and SDH equipments in their Networks. Some are flexible
and/or is monitorable and do possess a standard management interface. A suitable PDH information model is required
for such equipment to take advantage of the management capability provided by functional standards related to PDH
interfaces of those equipments and enable it to be part of an overall managed network.
The model presented in the present document represents 4 major functional requirements:
1) Fixed PDH structures.
2) Flexible PDH structures.
3) SDH Transport over PDH bearers.
4) The monitoring of PDH Ports.
Fixed PDH Structures utilize the inheritance tree given in figure 1 and the naming tree in figure 3. As can be seen this
can be used to model the rigid multiplexing structure from 64 kbits/sec to 140 Mbits/sec interfaces in line systems. An
example is given in figure 7 of a 140Mbit/s line signal multiplexed through the 34Mbit/s and 8Mbit/s levels to a 2Mbit/s
tributary signal which is mapped in a VC12 by a transmission system.
Flexible PDH structures use the same inheritance structure but the naming tree as in figure 2. This represents the flexible
structures that may be encountered in PDH crossconnects with ports at all data rates. An example is given in figure 6.

SIST EN 300 371 V1.3.1:2003

The transport of SDH (VC12) and ATM traffic is represented by the Objects e3INTTTP and e4INTTTP for 34
Mbits/sec bearers and 140 Mbits/sec bearers respectively.
The reporting control of failures of PDH signals at the different path layers is modelled by reusing techniques specified
in ITU-T Recommendation M.3100 (flexible assignment of severities to a failure).
The monitoring of the PDH ports is represented by the portMode Package that defines the behaviour. This package
models a port that may be enabled for monitoring or may be disabled for monitoring. In addition the port may be set for
auto monitoring providing no valid signal is present on the port. The port is then automatically enabled for monitoring
when a valid signal is applied for the first time.
It should also be noted that the behaviour of the operationalState is as defined by the ETSI community (different from
the SDH environment) and this only applies to this PDH model. This is apparent from the notes that remain in the
document. Only equipment failures, and not transmission failures, affect the attribute value.

1 Scope
The present document defines the information model to be used at the interface between Network Elements (NEs) and
management systems, for the management of equipment which use the Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH).
The present document defines:
- the information model for network elements using PDH multiplexing, including PDH interfaces of Synchronous
Digital Hierarchy (SDH) network elements.
The present document does not define:
- the protocol stack to be used for message communication;
- the network level management processes;
- the application contexts;
- the conformance requirements to be met by an implementation of this information model;
- information models for other systems or equipment.
The information model defined in the present document (and the corresponding message set) is concerned with the
management of NEs, the equipment by which they are implemented and the functions contained within them. More
precisely, it applies to an equipment domain visible at the element manager to element interface and is only concerned
with information available within that domain. Information proper to the domain of a network level management process
is not included within this model.

necessary in the pPITTPSource class definition.
5.1.2 European PDH Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) trail termination point
This generic object class represents a particular case of termination point used in a managed element where no
connectivity at respective level is provided. Instances of this object class are used when, in one layer, no flexibility is
provided, but a direct adaptation to client is present.
The sink object class includes the AIS and LOF monitoring function of a respective Connection Termination Point
(CTP) which is not instantiated where no connectivity on the respective level is provided.
Object classes inherited from this class are labelled according to the European PDH hierarchy (exATTP, where x = 0
stands for 64 kbit/s, x = 1 for 2 Mbit/s, x = 2 for 8 Mbit/s, x = 3 for 34 Mbit/s and x = 4 for 140 Mbit/s.)
NOTE: The possibility of adding conditional packages (present if the equipment supports the features) in order to
model the capability to reveal Excessive Bit Error Ratio (EBER) is for further study.
The subclasses represent two types of combined functions:
1) En/Pne_A [10] and Pne_TT [8]
The function En/Pne_A is the adaptation from physical section layer to the client PDH path layer (Pne) and the
function Pne_TT terminates the trail in that path layer.
2) Pme/Pne_A and Pne_TT [8]
The function Pme/Pne_A adapts from the server PDH path layer (Pme) to a framed, client PDH path layer (Pne)
characteristic information (P31e_CI, P22e_CI, P12s_CI). The function Pne_TT terminates the trail in that path
layers.
In both cases the management information exchanged with the combined functions is identical. As a consequence one
object exATTP reflects the management view for the particular PDH path (x=1,2,3,4). Using the objects exATTP a
PDH interface can be represented by a fewer number of instances than is obtained if objects are used which do not
represent combined functions. These alternative representations are shown in figure 5 and figure 4, respectively.

5.1.3 European PDH connection termination point
This subclause describes an object class (sink, source or bi-directional) which represents the model for a generic PDH
connection termination point (2, 8, 34 and 140 Mbit/s).
Object classes inherited from this class are labelled according to the European PDH hierarchy (exCTP, where x = 0
stands for 64 kbit/s, x = 1 for 2 Mbit/s, x = 2 for 8 Mbit/s, x = 3 for 34 Mbit/s and x = 4 for 140 Mbit/s).
The subclasses represent two types of adaptation functions:
1) En/Pne_A or En/Pnx_A [10]
The function En/Pne_A adapts from physical section layer (En) to a framed PDH path layer characteristic
information (P4e_CI, P31e_CI, P22e_CI, P12s_CI).
The function En/Pnx_A adapts from physical section layer (En) to an unframed PDH path layer characteristic
information (Pnx_CI), which is a signal of non-specified content [10].
2) Pme/Pne_A or Pme/Pnx_A [8]
The function Pme/Pne_A adapts from the server PDH path layer (Pme) to a framed, client PDH path layer (Pne)
characteristic information (P31e_CI, P22e_CI, P12s_CI). The function Pme/Pnx_A adapts from the server PDH

The attribute framedSignalMode may have the values 'active' and 'inactive'. An attributeValueChange
notification is issued when the value is modified and the inherited conditional package
attributeValueChangeNotificationPackage is instantiated.
If the value is set 'active', then the adaptation processing of a framed signal is provisioned and
the detection of the defects LOF and AIS is enabled. A communicationsAlarm notification shall be
issued if an AIS is detected. The probableCause parameter of the notification shall indicate aIS
[3]. A communicationsAlarm notification shall be issued if an LOF is detected. The probableCause
parameter of the notification shall indicate lossOfFrame [3]. In case of defect detection the
consequent action aSSF (all-ONES) is performed.
If the value is set 'inactive', then this adaptation function is deactivated assuming the reception
of an unframed signal (characteristic information Pnx_CI).
An attributeValueChange notification is issued when the value of the attribute frameStatus is
changed and the inherited conditional package attributeValueChangeNotificationPackage is
instantiated.
