 Overall System Notes

Overall System Notes

The following operational information has been provided for this release.
• LLDP must be enabled on the network elements in order for Service Activator and the
Network Device Manager (NDM) to provision and display ERPS rings correctly. LLDP
support is available in ONE SR 2.5 or greater. LLDP is enabled by default on the ETOS-10
module in ONE SR 4.1 and the ETOS-1 module in ONE SR 4.5. The TA5K Switch Modules
have added LLDP support as of TA5K SR 8.0. (6AOE8-40A, September 2013) (CN-18840)
• As of AOE9.0, Perl must be installed to any RedHat Enterprise Linux 6.x and CentOS 6.x
system due to a MySQL database requirement. Perl is included in the RHEL 6.x and
CentOS 6.x desktop installs. (6AOE9-40A, December 2014) (CN-26559)

NOTE
Upon upgrading to AOE 19.02, the default SFTP server ciphers are updated to
exclude insecure options. This could cause SFTP transfers on any equipment
not running the more secure ciphers to fail.

In order to re-enable the less secure security algorithms and allow your SFTP
transfers to function normally, please edit the highlighted line of the /opt/
dorado/adtranapps/firefly/user.conf file as shown below:
com.adtran.firefly.sftp {
sftp-server {
EnableSFTP = true
SFTP_PortNumber = 1222
SFTP_Username = emsadmin
SFTP_Password = password
targetDirectory = owareapps/ems_support/TFTPTransferFiles
Enable_Weak_Security = true
}
}

A stop/start of AOE is required for the property to take effect.

• During a failed login in the non-Flash-based GUI, AOE displays the message “Login
rejected” in AOE20.02 instead of “invalid username or password”. (6AOE2002-40A,
October 2020)

NOTE
The Upgrader and Installer will attempt to install Python 3.6 if there is
Internet Access. Both scripts will show error messages (i.e. ERROR: setup-
ius.sh download failed. Please check the internet or site connectivity or yum
access, Error encountered when installing Python 3.6. Please run the mns-

System Feature Enhancements

This section contains a summary of system feature enhancements as related to AOE20.02.

General Functionality
Added enhancement to automated service import for subscriber ID with
technology
(6AOE2002-40A, October 2020)
AOE has enhanced the automated service import function with respect to subscriber ID.
Setting the new property importTechnologyInSubscriberID = true will allow a subscriber ID
to import with the technology (ADSL, VDSL, RPOTS, GPON, AE). For example, the IP
address 10.50.54.121, Shelf 1, GPON card 13, PON 2, ONT 5 will be IP_ADDRESS_TECHNOL-
OGY_SHELF_SLOT_PON_ONT (i.e. 10.50.54.121_GPON_1_13_2_5) and IP address
10.50.54.121, Shelf 1, VDSL card 1, PORT 2 will be IP_ADDRESS_TECHNOLO-
GY_SHELF_SLOT_PORT (i.e. 10.50.54.121_VDSL_1_1_2). By default the importTechnologyIn-
SubscriberID property is false.

Added support to configure alarm severity on GPON and AE

(6AOE2002-40A, October 2020)
AOE has added support to configure alarm severity on GPON and AE cards through the AOE
Three Panel forms. Availability of “Card Alarm Provisioning” menu in the Three Panel forms
is dependent on the card (GPON/AE Configurable alarms) support of the feature. Alarms
configured in this fashion will match the Network Element severity.

Added new AOE GUI beside flash GUI for network management
(6AOE2002-40A, October 2020)
AOE has a new GUI for network management since Flash support is ending in December
2020. Most features of the Flash GUI have been ported to the new GUI with minimal change of
work flow. Some screens were not Flash dependent and did not need to be converted, such as,
Show Details, Service Manager, and Device Console.

NOTE
The Topology Feature has been retired and cannot be used in the new GUI.

6AOE2002-40A 7
AOE Services Management System Release AOE20.02 Release Notes

Added Single Sign-On hook support in AOE

(6AOE2002-40A, October 2020)
AOE has added Single Sign-On hook support, which is another authentication method like
RADIUS and TACACS+ servers, that enables AOE users to securely authenticate with the
service provider (for example, PingOne) application. The SSO method implemented uses one
set of credentials that utilizes a token exchange. The SSO authentication method is used in
AOE based on the property aaa.authentication.sso.enable=true. By default, this property is
false. Also there is another property owareuser.propertiesaaa.authentication.sso.issuers used
to identify that the token is coming from an authorized server only. The Issuers property can
have multiple issuers listed which can be given with a comma separation, such as, issuer1,
issuer2, etc. For any other issuer that is not listed, the request token will be rejected by AOE.

Automated Interface Features

There are no features for this release.

Carrier Ethernet Features

There are no features for this release.

FTTP and xDSL Features

Added support to configure EVC Map description with subscriberID
based on configurable property update through AOE SA and XML GW
(6AOE2002-40A, October 2020)
AOE has added support to configure the EVC-map description with the subscriberID based
on the evcmapDescriptionWithSubscriberID property flag in the owareuser.properties file.
This property is only supported in AOE Service Activator and XML GW for DATA, VIDEO,
RF-VIDEO, and VOICE (SIP/MGCP) services on xDSL, RPOTS, Active Ethernet, and GPON
equipment. By default the configurable property in owareuser.properties file will be false.

General Server Features

There are no features for this release.

This section contains a summary of system notes, fixes, and errata for AOE General Function-
ality as related to AOE20.02. AOE General Functionality includes the following:
• About AOE/Licensing
• Change Password
• Logout
• Online Help
• Port Status Legend

System Notes
• Selections made using the device check boxes in the Network Device Manager window
remain after a port has been added to a feature in the workspace. To quickly clear all the
device check boxes, toggle the box displayed immediately to the left of the NDM title bar.
The first click selects all the check boxes, then the second click clears all the check boxes.
(6AOE6-40A, November 2012)
• The X11 environment must be installed on the Linux server in order to view the AOE
Show Details forms. (6AOE6-40A, November 2012) (CN-8567)
• The ADSL device template, defaultProfile, can be edited and saved under the same name
thus making it different from the expected DEFVAL profile on the hardware. (6AOE6-
40A, November 2012)
• The NetVanta devices support the EZ-Provisioning feature and when enabled,
provisioning changes made from the EMS Three Panels are only saved to the running
config and not the startup config. (6AOE6-40A, November 2012) (CN-10228)
• An SNMP issue is preventing the NetVanta 8044M > Provisioning > Loopback > System
Loopback Mac, Facility Loopback, and Terminal Loopback forms from provisioning the
loopbacks. A firmware change is required to resolve this issue. (6AOE62-40A, February
2013) (CN-14945)
• User interaction with the Show Detail forms does not refresh the user's session timer and
the session may timeout if working exclusively in the Show Detail forms. Interactions
with the rest of the AOE web user interface prevents the user timeout from expiring and
auto-logging the user out of the AOE session. (6AOE8-40A, September 2013) (CN-15267)
• Beginning in AOE8.0, the EVC Management form loads the MEN port information from
the database. This information is persisted to the database on an SCA parse, a resync, or
a discovery. After the upgrade from AOE6.x to AOE8.0, the EVC Management form will
not display the MEN ports until a resync or SCA parse has been performed. The EVC
Management form is available in the NDM by selecting the network element then
selecting Manage EVC from the right-click menu. (6AOE8-40A, September 2013) (CN-
17821)
• Using the AOE Scheduler, operations scheduled to run “every 15 minutes” will be run at
:00, :15, :30, :45 minutes of each hour. (6AOE81-40A, January 2014) (CN-11633)
• The option to force a switchover between redundant TA5004 SCM modules is not
currently available in the AOE or Traditional Client GUIs. (6AOE83-40A, May 2014) (CN-
21687)
• When the user selects an empty file while scheduling the Services Import operation, the
report option is not displayed for that task in the Reports window. However, the status of
the scheduled task is shown as successful. (6AOE83-40A, May 2014) (CN-23887)

6AOE2002-40A 9
AOE Services Management System Release AOE20.02 Release Notes

• The following scenarios apply when importing custom data and video services using the
Services Import feature.
o If the number of flows in the custom service is 1, then the service is imported as either
data or video with 1 flow based on the EVC type (IGMP or non-IGMP).
o If the number of flows in the custom service is more than 1 and at least one of the
flows is assigned with an IGMP EVC, then the service is imported as combo (data
and video) with the appropriate number of flows.
o If the number of flows in the custom service is more than 1 and all of the flows are
assigned with either Non-IGMP or IGMP EVCs, then the service is imported as either
data or video with the appropriate number of flows.
If the EVC type is IGMP, then the service is imported as video. If the EVC type is non-
IGMP, then the service is imported as data. (6AOE83-40A, May 2014) (CN-23349)
• After importing custom services, the flows are displayed in a random order. When
attempting to modify the EVC parameter of the required flows, verify the EVC map
parameters before modifying. (6AOE83-40A, May 2014) (CN-23343)
• The Traditional Client Event Templates trap forwarding mechanism is not supported on
Linux servers. Enable the NBSnmpGateway.config file in the <installdir>/owareapps/lib
directory to forward all traps. (6AOE85-40A, August 2014)
• Setting the IP Address to all zeros (0.0.0.0) on the GPON > PON Port-x > ONT >
Provisioning > Management IP Device Console form disables the Management IP.
(6AOE9-40A, December 2014) (CN-27092)
• The AOE device discovery attempts to collect an SCA file as part of the discovery process.
AOE waits 15 minutes, 3 collection attempts with a 5 minute wait time, before the SCA
collection times out. The discovery process can appear to hang if AOE is waiting to collect
an SCA file. (6AOE91-40A, March 2015)
• The Total Access 5000 SCM has an AUC filename basepath folder limitation of 40
characters for auto upgrades for Total Access 5000 releases prior to Total Access 5000
System Release 9.0. The default location, TFTPTransferFiles/System Releases, is within
the 40 character limitation. Total Access 5000 System Release 9.0 and forward will have a
limitation of 80 characters. (6AOE92-40A, June 2015) (CN-31220)
• While upgrading or downgrading the software on an entire TA5K network, it is
recommended to separately upgrade the parent nodes and the subtended nodes. With
Auto Reboot option selected, if the parent node reboots, it could disrupt the upgrades on
all in-band managed subtended nodes. (6AOE101-40A, March 2016) (CN-35187)
• Device Console on grey GPON ONT shows up all the configuration information of its
associated PON instead of showing Alert Window. Where as grey AE ONT shows up
Alert Window with "ONT Not Available" message. (6AOE101-40A, March 2016) (CN-
35460)
• ONT Upgrade and TA500x Software upgrade on same shelf should not be started at same
time. One of the upgrade will result in failure as TA5k System Controller cannot handle
two upgrades in parallel. (6AOE101-40A, March 2016)
• In the Northbound SNMP Gateway, trap forwarding to other destinations is not
supported to forward SNMPv1 traps from NE as SNMPv2 traps. (6AOE2001-40A, June
2020)
• In the Event Template Manager, the Forward Host mechanism is not supported to
forward SNMPv2 traps. (6AOE2001-40A, June 2020)
• The AOE Licenses Expiration Date in the About AOE/Licensing tab shows the key that
will expire the earliest (when applicable). (6AOE2002-40A, October 2020) (CN-66318)

This section contains a summary of system notes, fixes, and errata for AOE Server as related to
AOE20.02.

System Notes
• The chap8.keystore file may not be generated when installing or updating AOE on a
Linux server. Without the chap8.keystore file, AOE does not start properly. If the
chap8.keystore file is not generated, a “Failed to load keystore type JKS with path” error
message is logged to the Appserver.log file. Contact ADTRAN Product Support for
assistance should this situation occur. (6AOE9-40B, March 2015) (CN-20824, CN-28645)
• The REST device discovery configuration which was user customizable in adtranapps/
firefly/firefly.conf has been moved to adtranapps/firefly/user.conf. The existing
firefly.conf will be migrated to the user.conf file automatically when upgrading from AOE
9.x to AOE 10.0. (6AOE10-40A, November 2015) (CN-32023)
• In order to accommodate larger ONT image sizes, AOE has been updated to change the
default number of simultaneous ONTs upgraded per OLT from 32 to 16. If the
ONTUpgrade.MaxONTBatchPerOLT property is already defined in
owareuser.properties, it will not be changed. For deployments with ONTs with smaller
images, this can be changed to improve upgrade times. (6AOE1701-40A, June 2017) (CN-
43359)
• The date sorting function in historical alarms does not function properly on records more
than 500,000. To fix the issue, change the setting Max Alarm Log Backups to 15 in the
Administrative > Administrator Settings > Alarm Processing menu in the AOE GUI.
Remove the alarm logs file 16-20 from the <install_dir>/owareapps/redcell/Log. No
stop/start is required in AOE. (6AOE2002-40A, October 2020) (CN-63744)

• Ethernet Access Services
• ServiceActivator
• ServiceDesigner
• Service Import

NOTE
With the functionality and support which has been incorporated in to
ServiceDesigner and ServiceActivator, Ethernet Access Services can be
optionally used. Beginning with the AOE9.x releases support was added with
the addition of Ethernet Transport Templates and Business Ethernet
Template in ServiceDesigner to provide support and functionality to
consolidate Ethernet Access Services in to ServiceDesigner.

System Notes
• NetVanta 8044M ERPS ring networks are currently not supported. An EVC can only be
connected to the MEN port that is the subtended host listener. (6AOE6-40A, November
2012) (CN-11897)
• ONE Services supports stand-alone NV8044 and NV8044M applications. ETOS support
has been moved from ONE Services to Service Designer and Service Activator. STOS
support has been withdrawn from ONE Services due to the discontinuance of the STOS
product. (6AOE6-40A, November 2012)
• Ethernet Access Services does not currently support the NetVanta 8044M. (6AOE6-40A,
November 2012) (CN-12281)
• Changing of subscriber port in an MDU deployment will require deleting that subscriber
and reactivating on the new port. (6AOE8-40A, September 2013) (CN-18989)
• The minimum active links should match when creating services with multiple service
templates. When creating two service templates, ensure both reference the same number
of Min Active Links. (6AOE8-40A, September 2013) (CN-19143)
• AOE expects the unicast video profile to be similar to the data EVC map profile. So for any
subscriber, when a data service is “added” to a split VLAN video service, the EVC map
parameters for the existing unicast EVC map will not be changed on the network element.
(6AOE8-40A, September 2013) (CN-19166)
• CE 5.2 or greater is required to suspend a service created between two NetVanta devices.

 Services

• For EVCMAP profiles, subscriber profiles are created when IGMP Processing is set to
Proxy or DHCP Relay (processing) is set to Snoop. When IGMP Processing is set to Proxy,
the subscriber profile created on the NV8424 is named VIDEO. If DHCP Processing is set
to Snoop, then the EVC-map profile name is used as the subscriber profile name. To avoid
conflicts, the user cannot use an EVC-map name of VIDEO when DHCP Processing is set
to Snoop. (6AOE9-40A, December 2014) (CN-26274)
• IGMP Processing - Proxy is a higher priority than DHCP Processing - Snoop. When both
options are selected in an EVCMAP profile, then the VIDEO subscriber profile is created
on the NV8424. If the VIDEO subscriber profile already exists, then the EVCs used in the
service activation are appended to that existing subscriber profile. (6AOE9-40A, December
2014) (CN-26250)
• The auto assignment S-Tag formula uses the following port offsets when the user selects
the NV8424RA ports:
o 10 GigE ports: port number + 100
o GigE port: actual port number
(6AOE9-40A, December 2014) (CN-26299)
• When two templates with different PON modes are selected for activation, then the
priority for PON Mode is given based on the first selected template. (6AOE91-40A, March
2015) (CN-18508)
• The TID and SysName on a device must be set the same in order to use the file based
Services Import feature. The import process will fail if the TID and System Name are
different. (6AOE91-40A, March 2015) (CN-29585)
• An existing voice dialing profile on the network element is not automatically updated
when changes are made to the Dial Plan Profile in AOE Service Designer. If changes are
required, either update the dialing profile via CLI or delete the dialing profile via the CLI
and create a new voice entry with ServiceActivator. (6AOE91-40A, March 2015) (CN-
29744)
• In contrast to Residential Services (GPON and ActiveEthernet), EVCs (data flows and
custom flows) on the NetVanta 8424 are deleted. (6AOE91-40A, March 2015) (CN-29577,
CN-29623, CN-29624)
• When using Service Designer and Service Activator with Combo Cards, the default
dialing plan profile named DEFAULT_DP is assumed to be the profile for that SIP service.
If the DEFAULT_DP dialing profile is removed from the network element or is empty,
AOE will report an error that no dial plans exist when attempting an activation. (6AOE91-
40A, March 2015) (CN-29997)
• VOIP profiles in Service Designer with the same profile name but different case are
treated as duplicate profile names. In the case of Service Import, the first profile name
imported will be saved and any subsequent names with a different case will be treated as
a duplicate. (6AOE92-40A, June 2015) (CN-30225)
• Use of AutoProv profile with wider scope would conflict with services provisioned on
ONTs outside of AOE when pushing default templates upon receiving activation traps. It
is recommended to limit Auto Provisioning Templates to specific ONTs which are
intended to be managed in AOE by adding Part Number and/or Location in the
AutoProv profile when there is a potential for ONTs that were managed/established
outside of AOE. (6AOE10-40A, November 2015) (CN-32671)
• AOE does not restrict the use of special characters for Part number field in AutoProv
profile and as such should not be used. Additionally, special characters are not a part of
standard part numbers. (6AOE10-40A, November 2015) (CN-32771)

configuration. VoIP FILE config method is not supported.User may experience
unexpected failure if they perform VoIP FILE config. (6AOE1601-40A, May 2016) (CN-
36977)
• AOE Service Activator requires a SIP trunk name of T01 to be used. If it does not exist on
the network element, AOE will create with the name T01. If the network element has a SIP
trunk with any other name provisioned, service activation will fail. (6AOE1601-40A, May
2016) (CN-37934)
• Once a service template has been used in service activation, do not reduce the number of
flows associated with that service template. Doing so will cause previously activated
services to become un-editable. (6AOE1601-40A, May 2016) (CN-37593)
• The Subscriber ID for NV8424 should not include backslashes (\), double quotes (“), or
other special characters (>, <, #, %, ^, ?, or ‘). (6AOE1802-40A, June 2018) (CN-45947)

Fixes
• Fixed an issue where AOE would fail to provision xDSL and RPOTS FXS ports when
provisioning SIP voice service with SR11.0.x through AOE Service Activator and XML
GW. The default SIP trunk will be used on NE while creating a voice user on xDSL and
RPOTS FXS port during AOE service provisioning on SR11.0.x. AOE service provisioning
module will validate the requested SIP trunk with default SIP trunk on NE to provision
successfully; otherwise, will not provision and recommend to use default SIP trunk from
AOE during SIP voice provisioning with SR11.0.x. (6AOE2002-40A, October 2020) (CN-
65405)
• Fixed an issue by utilizing the Trunk Profile name associated with the SIP profile, when
the Trunk Profile name is null due to prior AOE20.01 release with the service Modify or
Import operation on xDSL/ RPOTS for SIP voice service. (6AOE2002-40A, October 2020)
(CN-68268)

Errata
• In rare occasions, POTS ports (FXS) have been seen to be put in service when no services
were actually provisioned for those ports. The work-around is to manually adjust the
settings on the specific ports. (6AOE61-40A, December 2012) (CN-13716)
• An error is returned when the Network Ingress Match field is enabled in a template that
is pushed to equipment that does not support this parameter. (6AOE8-40A, September

• Advanced shaping options for ONT multi-tenancy is not currently supported. (6AOE83-
40A, May 2014) (CN-23974)
• Deleting a service from AOE will delete any other service which matches the same bridge
group name. Duplicate bridge group names only occur when a Service Import brings in a
service with the same bridge group name. (6AOE85-40A, August 2014) (CN-26026)

TFTPTransferFiles directories can run slower than expected on a subset of servers. The
time to replicate files depends on several factors such as server specifications and network
latency. If users encounter this issue in their network, ADTRAN recommends increasing
the interval of the autofailover.sh cronjob. (6AOE92-40A, June 2015) (CN-29638)

• AOE service activation displays an incorrect validation message when provisioning REST
data/video services on the NV8424. There are two workaround options. The first is to
create an EVC on the NV8424 using AOE Business Ethernet ST and then provision AOE

0.5. (6AOE2001-40A, June 2020) (CN-55308)
• When multiple services are provisioned to a subscriber and one type of service is deleted
(voice, video, data), then part of the provisioning can be tied to the generic instance. The
