Introduction | 11 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 1. Introduction The 4RF Aprisa SR+ Radio The 4RF Aprisa SR+ is a point-to-multipoint digital radio providing secure narrowband wireless data connectivity for SCADA, infrastructure and telemetry applications. The radios carry a combination of serial packet data and Ethernet data between the base station, repeater stations and remote stations. The Aprisa SR+ is configurable as a point-to-multipoint base station, a remote station or a repeater station.
12 | Introduction Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Product Overview Network Coverage and Capacity The Aprisa SR+ has a typical link range of up to 120 km, however, geographic features, such as hills, mountains, trees and foliage, or other path obstructions, such as buildings, will limit radio coverage. Additionally, geography may reduce network capacity at the edge of the network where errors may occur and require retransmission. However, the Aprisa SR+ uses 10W output power and Forward Error Correction (FEC) which greatly improves the sensitivity and system gain performance of the radio resulting in less retries and minimal reduction in capacity. Ultimately, the overall performance of any specific network will be defined by a range of factors including the RF output power, the modulation used and its related receiver sensitivity, the geographic location, the number of remote stations in the base station coverage area and the traffic profile across the network. Effective network design will distribute the total number of remote stations across the available base stations to ensure optimal geographic coverage and network capacity. One base station can register and operate with up to 500 remote / repeater stations. The practical limit of remote / repeater stations that can operate with one base station is determined by a range of factors including the number of services, the packet sizes, the protocols used, the message types and network timeouts. Automatic Registration On start-up, the remote station transmits a registration message to the base stations which responds with a registration response. This allows the base station to record the details of all the remote stations active in the network. If a remote station cannot register with the base station after multiple attempts within 10 minutes, it will automatically reboot. If remote is not able to register with base station in 5 attempts, then a ‘Network Configuration Warning’ alarm event will be raised indicating that a remote is not registered with the base station. If a remote station has registered with the base station but then loses communication, it will automatically reboot within 2 minutes. Remote Messaging There are two message types in the Aprisa SR+ network, broadcast messages and unicast messages. Broadcast messages are transmitted by the base station to the remote stations and unicast messages are transmitted by the remote station to the base station. These messages are commonly referred to as uplink (unicast remote to base) and downlink (broadcast base to remote). All remotes within the coverage area will receive broadcast messages and pass them on to either the Ethernet or serial interface. The RTU determines if the message is intended for it and will accept it or discard it.
Introduction | 13 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Store and Forward Repeater The Aprisa SR+ in Repeater mode is used to link remote stations to the base station when direct communication is not possible due to terrain, distance, fade margin or other obstructions in the network. The following example depicts a repeater on the hill top to allow communication between the base station and the remote stations on the other side of hilly terrain. Repeater Packet Forwarding The Aprisa SR+ works in packet Store and Forward (S&F) for simple and low cost repeater network. Repeater mode is available in both Access Request (AR) and Listen Before Send (LBS/CSMA) MAC operating modes. It allows a radio in Repeater mode to store a received packet and retransmit it. Single Repeater Single Hop The following example depicts an Aprisa SR+ single repeater single hop Store and Forward network.
14 | Introduction Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Multiple Repeater Single Hop The following example depicts an Aprisa SR+ multiple repeater single hop store and forward network supporting both overlapping and non-overlapping coverage repeater networks. An overlapped RF coverage area creates radio interference and might affect network performance and reduce throughput, as show in figure (a), where Remote 1 is in overlapped RF coverage with Repeater 1 and Repeater 2.
Introduction | 15 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Multiple Repeater Multiple Hop The following example depicts an Aprisa SR+ daisy chain multiple repeater multiple hop store and forward network i.e. multiple hops and multiple repeaters in non-overlapping RF coverage. The Aprisa SR+ daisy chain store and forward repeaters are currently supported in LBS MAC mode only. In any type of store and forward repeater network base, repeater and remote radios must have their Tx/Rx frequencies sets to match to their appropriate linking devices as shown in the figures. Note: Frequencies shown in the figures relates to the device on the left where {Tx, Rx} = {fx, fy}. In this example, the Base Station, Repeater 2 and remotes are deployed with Tx=f1 and Rx=f2. On the other hand Repeater 1 and Repeater 3 are deployed with Tx=f2 and Rx=f1, creating the required linking for daisy chain operation.
16 | Introduction Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Repeater Messaging The Aprisa SR+ uses a routed protocol throughout the network whereby messages contain source and destination addresses. The remote and repeater stations will register with a base station. In networks with a repeater, the repeater must register with the base station before the remotes can register with the base station. Additionally, based on destination address, messages are designated as either a ‘broadcast’ message, (mostly originating from a base station) or a ‘unicast’ message (mostly originating from a remote station). In a network with a repeater, or multiple repeaters, the base station broadcasts a message which contains a source address and a destination address. The repeater receives the message and recognizes it is a broadcast message, from the destination address and re-broadcasts the message across the network. In IP routing mode all remote stations in the coverage area will receive the message but only the radio with the destination address will act upon the message. Similarly, the remote station will send a unicast message which contains a unicast destination address (the base station). The repeater will receive this message; recognize the destination address and forward it to the appropriate destination address. In order to prevent repeater-repeater loops, a detection mechanism of ‘duplicate message’ and use of unicast messaging in remote to base/repeater direction is used. For example, in the Multiple Repeater Single Hop figure above, the topology is of Base, Repeater 1, Repeater 2 and Remote 1 connected to Repeater 1 in overlapping coverage, where Remote 1 can also hear Repeater 2. When the Base station broadcasts a message, Remote1 will receive this message from both Repeater 1 and Repeater 2 but will drop one of them as ‘duplicate message’. It is possible that Repeater 1, for example, can also hear the broadcast sent out by Repeater 2. In this case, Repeater 1 will drop this broadcast as a ‘duplicate message’. These phenomena will not happen in the upstream direction as all messages are sent ‘unicast’. Remote 1 will send a packet to Base station, setting the destination address in packet to Base station and ‘next hop’ address in packet to Repeater 1. Thus, only Repeater 1 will forward the packet to Base station and Repeater 2 will drop the packet as the ‘next hop’ address is not Repeater 2.

28 | Product Options Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Protected Station The Aprisa SR+ Protected Station is full monitored hot-standby and fully hot-swappable. The Aprisa SR+ Protected Station provides radio and user interface protection for Aprisa SR+ radios when configured as a base station. The RF ports and interface ports from the active Aprisa SR+ radio are switched to the standby radio if there is a failure in the active radio. Option Example Part Number Part Description APSQ-R400-SSC-HD-22-ENAA 4RF SR+, PS, 400-470 MHz, SSC, Half Duplex, 2E2S, EN, AA The Aprisa SR+ Protected Station is comprised of an Aprisa SR+ Protection Switch and two standard Aprisa SR+ radios mounted in a 2U rack mounting chassis. The Aprisa SR+ Protected Station is full monitored hot-standby and fully hot-swappable. All interfaces (RF, data, etc.) are continually monitored on both the active and standby radio to ensure correct operation. The standby radio can be replaced without impacting traffic flow on the active radio. The Aprisa SR+ radios can be any of the currently available Aprisa SR+ radio frequency bands, channel sizes or interface port options. The Aprisa SR+ Protected Station can operate as a base station, repeater station or remote station. The protection behaviour and switching criteria between the active and standby radios is identical for the three configurations. By default, the Aprisa SR+ Protected Station is configured with the left hand radio (A) designated as the primary radio and the right hand radio (B) designated as the secondary radio. Each radio is configured with its own unique IP and MAC address and the address of the partner radio. On power-up, the primary radio will assume the active role and the secondary radio will assume the standby role. If, for some reason, only one radio is powered on it will automatically assume the active role. Protected Ports The protected ports are located on the protected station front panel. Switching occurs between the active radio ports and the standby radio ports based on the switching criteria described below. The protected ports include:  Antenna ports ANT/TX and RX (if dual antenna ports used)  Ethernet ports 1 and 2  Serial port
Product Options | 29 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Operation In hot-standby normal operation, the active radio carries all RS-232 serial and Ethernet traffic over the radio link and the standby radio transmit is on with its transmitter connected to an internal load. Both radios are continually monitored for correct operation including the transmitter and receiver and alarms are raised if an event occurs. The active radio sends regular ‘keep alive’ messages to the standby radio to indicate it is operating correctly. In the event of a failure on the active radio, the RF link and user interface traffic is automatically switched to the standby radio. The failed radio can then be replaced in the field without interrupting user traffic (see Aprisa SR+ User Manual). Switch Over The switch over to the standby radio can be initiated automatically, on fault detection, or manually via the Hardware Manual Lock switch on the Protection Switch or the Software Manual Lock from SuperVisor. Additionally, it is possible to switch over the radios remotely without visiting the station site, via the remote control connector on the front of the Protection Switch. Configuration Management The Primary and Secondary radios are managed with the embedded web-based management tool, SuperVisor, by using either the Primary or Secondary IP address. Configuration changes in one of the radios will automatically be reflected in the partner radio. To ensure all remote stations are registered to the correct (active) base station, changes to the Network Table are automatically synchronized from the active radio to the standby radio. The Network Table is only visible on the active radio. This synchronization does not occur if the Hardware Manual Lock is active. Power The Aprisa SR+ Protected station has two DC power options, 12 VDC and 48 VDC. An example of the 12 VDC option part number is: Part Number Part Description APSQ-R400-SSC-HD-22-ENAA 4RF SR+, PS, 400-470 MHz, SSC, Half Duplex, 2E2S, EN, STD An example of the 48 VDC option part number is: Part Number Part Description APSQ-R400-SSC-HD-22-ENAB 4RF SR+, PS, 400-470 MHz, SSC, Half Duplex, 2E2S, EN, 48VDC
30 | Product Options Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Data Driven Protected Station The Aprisa SR+ Data Driven Protected Station provides radio and RS-232 serial port user interface protection for Aprisa SR+ radios. Example Part: Part Number Part Description APSQ-D400-SSC-HD-22-ENAA 4RF SR+, PD, 400-470 MHz, SSC, Half Dup, 2E2S, EN, STD The Aprisa SR+ Data Driven Protected Station shown is comprised of two standard Aprisa SR+ setup as ‘dual antenna port’, ‘half duplex’ radios and two external duplexers mounted on 19" rack mounting shelves. The Aprisa SR+ radios can be any of the currently available Aprisa SR+ radio frequency band options. By default, the Aprisa SR+ Data Driven Protected Station is configured with the left hand radio (A) designated as the primary radio and the right hand radio (B) designated as the secondary radio. Each radio is configured with its own unique IP and MAC address and the address of the partner radio. On power-up, the primary radio will assume the active role and the secondary radio will assume the standby role. If, for some reason, only one radio is powered on it will automatically assume the active role. Operation The active radio is determined explicitly by which radio receives data on its RS-232 serial port input from the interface. The active radio carries all RS-232 serial traffic over its radio link and the standby radio is unused with its transmitter turned off. If data is received on the RS-232 serial port interface input of the standby radio, it will immediately become the active radio and the radio which was active will become the standby radio. Over The Air Compatibility If the Aprisa SR+ Data Driven Protected Station is to be used in a network of New Aprisa SR radios, the ‘SR Compatible’ option must be enabled (see Aprisa SR+ User Manual 1.5.0).
Product Options | 31 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Switch Over The active radio is determined explicitly by which radio receives data on its RS-232 serial port. The switching and blocking criteria used for the standard Protected Station do not apply. This means that events and alarms on the unit are not used as switching criteria. Configuration Management The Primary and Secondary radios are managed with the embedded web-based management tool, SuperVisor by using either the Primary or Secondary IP address. Configuration changes in one of the radios will automatically be reflected in the partner radio. Changes to the Network Table are automatically synchronized from the active radio to the standby radio but the Network Table is only visible on the active radio. Power A +10.5 to +30 V DC external power source must be connected to both the A and B Phoenix Contact 2 pin male power connectors. The maximum combined power consumption is 32.0 W for 1 W transmit power.

Product Options | 37 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 USB RS-232 / RS-485 Serial Port The Aprisa SR+ USB host port is predominantly used for software upgrade and diagnostic reporting. However, it can also be used to provide an additional RS-232 DCE or RS-485 serial port for customer traffic. This is accomplished with a USB to RS-232 / RS-485 serial converter cable. This plugs into the USB host port connector and can be terminated with the required customer connector. This additional RS-232 / RS-485 serial port is enabled with the SuperVisor mode setting in Serial Port Settings. The Aprisa SR+ USB port has driver support for these USB serial converters. Other USB serial converters may not operate correctly. USB RS-232 / RS-485 operation The USB serial converter buffers the received data frames into 64 byte blocks separated by a small inter-frame gap. For the majority of applications, this fragmentation of egress frames is not an issue. However, there are some applications that may be sensitive to the inter-frame gap, therefore, these applications need consideration. A 5 ms inter-frame is recommended for the applications that are sensitive to inter-frame gap timings. On a USB RS-232 port, Modbus RTU can operate up to 9600 bit/s with all packet sizes and up to 115200 bit/s if the packet size is less than 64 bytes. The standard RS-232 port is fully compatible with Modbus RTU at all baud rates.

The following applications are described:  Basic point-to-multipoint application  Advanced point-to-multipoint application with repeaters  Multi-interface point-to-multipoint application  Multi-hop Daisy chain repeaters in LBS mode application  Pseudo Peer to Peer using base-repeater application Basic point-to-multipoint application Single base station with Ethernet SCADA data inputs to multiple geographically remote sites with Ethernet RTUs requiring control and data acquisition. The base station receives Ethernet frames from the SCADA server LAN and broadcasts all Ethernet frames to all remote stations Each remote site receives Ethernet frames from the RTU and unicasts over the air to the base station. The base station uses an omni directional antenna to provide wide coverage and the remote stations are fitted with directional Yagi antennas to provide higher gain.
Applications | 63 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Advanced point-to-multipoint application with repeater Single base station with Ethernet SCADA data inputs to multiple geographically remote sites with Ethernet RTUs requiring control and data acquisition. A repeater is deployed to service remote sites beyond the reach of the base station. The base station receives Ethernet frames from the SCADA server LAN and broadcasts all Ethernet frames to the repeater and its remote stations. Three remote sites have direct radio communication with the base station but the other two remote sites operate via the repeater site. Each remote site receives Ethernet frames from the RTU and unicasts over the air to the repeater / base station. The base station and the repeater station use an omni directional antenna to provide wide coverage and the remote stations are fitted with directional Yagi antennas to provide higher gain.

The base station receives Ethernet / RS-232 frames from the SCADA servers and broadcasts all frames to all remote stations Each remote site receives Ethernet / RS-232 frames from the RTU and unicasts over the air to the base station.

Applications | 65 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Multi-hop Daisy Chain Repeaters in LBS Mode Application This application is used for daisy chain repeaters when remote stations are very far from base station coverage. Daisy chain repeaters can only be used in LBS channel access mode (and future release in AR mode). In the figure example below, the Base Station can communicate with any of the far remotes via the daisy chain repeaters. The SCADA master will communicate with RTU 2 using a source and destination IP address and the underlining SCADA protocol. On the downstream, the SCADA master would like to communicate with RTU-2 and sends a packet destined to RTU-2 (using RTU 2 destination address). This packet received by the Base Station will then broadcast OTA to Repeater 1. Repeater 1 will store-and-forward the received packet and re-transmit the packet to Repeater 2 and back to the Base Station, which will drop the duplicate packet as this packet is its own forward. Repeater 2 will store-and-forward the packet to the local Ethernet port to RTU 3 (which will drop the packet due to destination address mismatch) and it will also re-transmit the packet OTA to Repeater 3, Remote 1 and back to Repeater 1, which will drop the duplicate packet as this packet is its own forward. Remote-1 will forward the packet to its local Ethernet port and RTU-1 will drop the packet due to destination address mismatch. Repeater 3 will store-and-forward and re-transmit the packet OTA to Remote-2 and back to Repeater 2, which will drop the packet as duplicate packet as this packet is its own forward. Remote 2 will then forward the packet to its local Ethernet port and RTU 2 as the destined address which will process the packet accordingly. On the upstream, RTU 2 will send a packet to the SCADA master, and the radio network from Remote 2 sending a unicast packet destined to Base Station which will act with the same process mechanism as described above for downstream path.
66 | Applications Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Pseudo Peer to Peer using Base-Repeater Application This application is used for remote peer to peer communication via a base-repeater or repeater configuration. In peer to peer, the source RTU will create a message with destination address of the destined RTU in the SCADA layer protocol (and/or IP layer, if applicable). Note, this address is only known by the RTUs as the SR+ radio is transparent to SCADA protocol messages. Although all messages sent from remotes are always destined to the base station, packets can be sent from one remote to the other using the ‘packet filtering’ peer to peer feature (see the Aprisa SR+ User Manual Radio > Channel Setup) and base-repeater or repeater configuration. In the figure example below, RTU 1 would like to communicate with RTU 3, and thus, Remote 1 and Remote 3 will be configured with ‘packet filtering’ set to ‘disabled’ and the Base station configured as a Base-repeater. RTU 1 will create a message destined to RTU 3 and forward it to Remote 1, which in turn will forward it as a unicast message OTA to the Repeater Station, destined to the Base Station (all packets from a remote are destined to the base station). The Repeater Station will store-and-forward the message received from Remote 1 and re-transmit the message to Base Station, but it will also be received by Remote 2. Since, Remote 2 is not the destination and packet filtering is set to automatic (enabled), the packet will be dropped by Remote 2. Note, Remote 3 and Remote 4 can’t hear the Repeater Station. The Base-Repeater will forward the packet to the local ports (Ethernet and/or serial), and will also re-transmit the packet OTA to Remote 3 and Remote 4 and back to the Repeater (this is specific and default to Base-Repeater functionality, as packet filtering is not used in Base-Repeater operation and it can be left in default (automatic)). The Repeater will drop the duplicate packet as this packet is its own forward. Remote 3 will receive the packet and forward it to it local ports (Ethernet or Serial) and to its local RTU 3, as packet filtering is disabled which will then process the packet accordingly. Remote 4 will also receive the packet, but it will drop the packet as packet filtering is enabled. If Remote 4 had packet filtering disabled, the packet would be forwarded to the local port and dropped by RTU 4, due to SCADA protocol destination address mismatch (and/or IP destination address mismatch, if applicable).
Product Architecture | 67 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 6. Product Architecture Product Operation There are three components to the wireless interface: the Physical Layer (PHY), the Data Link Layer (DLL) and the Network Layer. These three layers are required to transport data across the wireless channel in the Point-to-multipoint (PMP) configuration. The Aprisa SR+ DLL is largely based on the 802.15.4 MAC layer using a proprietary implementation. Physical Layer The Aprisa SR+ PHY uses a one or two frequency half duplex transmission mode which eliminates the need for a duplexer. However, a Dual Antenna port option is available for separate transmit and receive antenna connection to support external duplexers or filters (half duplex operation). Remote nodes are predominantly in receive mode with only sporadic bursts of transmit data. This reduces power consumption. The Aprisa SR+ is a packet based radio. Data is sent over the wireless channel in discrete packets / frames, separated in time. The PHY demodulates data within these packets with coherent detection. The Aprisa SR+ PHY provides carrier, symbol and frame synchronization predominantly through the use of preambles. This preamble prefixes all packets sent over the wireless channel which enables fast Synchronization. Data Link Layer / MAC layer The Aprisa SR+ PHY enables multiple users to be able to share a single wireless channel; however a DLL is required to manage data transport. The two key components to the DLL are channel access and hop by hop transmission. Channel Access The Aprisa SR+ radio has two modes of channel access, Access Request and Listen Before Send. Option Function Access Request Channel access scheme where the base stations controls the communication on the channel. Remotes ask for access to the channel, and the base station grants access if the channel is not occupied. Listen Before Send Channel access scheme where network elements listen to ensure the channel is clear, before trying to access the channel.
68 | Product Architecture Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Access Request This scheme is particularly suited to digital SCADA systems where all data flows through the base station. In this case it is important that the base station has contention-free access as it is involved in every transaction. The channel access scheme assigns the base station as the channel access arbitrator and therefore inherently it has contention-free access to the channel. This means that there is no possibility of contention on data originating from the base station. As all data flows to or from the base station, this significantly improves the robustness of the system. All data messages are controlled via the AG (access grant) control message and therefore there is no possibility of contention on the actual end user data. If a remote station accesses the channel, the only contention risk is on the AR (access request) control message. These control messages are designed to be as short as possible and therefore the risk of collision of these control messages is significantly reduced. Should collisions occur these are resolved using a random back off and retry mechanism. As the base station controls all data transactions multiple applications can be effectively handled, including a mixture of polling and report by exception. Listen Before Send The Listen Before Send channel access scheme is realized using Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA). In this mode, a pending transmission requires the channel to be clear. This is determined by monitoring the channel for other signals for a set time prior to transmission. This results in reduced collisions and improved channel capacity. There are still possibilities for collisions with this technique e.g. if two radios simultaneously determine the channel is clear and transmit at the same time. In this case an acknowledged transaction may be used. The transmitter requests an ACK to ensure that the transmission has been successful. If the transmitter does not receive an ACK, then random backoffs are used to reschedule the next transmission. Hop by Hop Transmission Hop by Hop Transmission is realized in the Aprisa SR+ by adding a MAC address header to the packet. For 802.15.4, there are 2 addresses, the source and destination addresses.
Product Architecture | 69 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Adaptive Coding Modulation The Aprisa SR+ provides Adaptive Coding Modulation (ACM) which maximizes the use of the RF path to provide the highest radio capacity available. ACM automatically adjusts the modulation coding and FEC code rate in the remote to base direction of transmission over the defined modulation range based on the signal quality for each individual remote radio. When the RF path is healthy (no fading), modulation coding is increased and the FEC code rate is decreased to maximize the data capacity. If the RF path quality degrades, modulation coding is decreased and the FEC code rate is increased for maximum robustness to maintain path connectivity.
70 | Product Architecture Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Network Layer Packet Routing Aprisa SR+ is a standard static IP router which routes and forwards IP packet based on standard IP address and routing table decisions. Aprisa SR+ router mode (see figure below), enables the routing of IP packets within the Aprisa SR+ wireless network and in and out to the external router / IP RTUs devices connected to the Aprisa SR+ wired Ethernet ports. Within the Aprisa SR+ Router mode, each incoming Ethernet packet on the Ethernet port is stripped from its Ethernet header to reveal the IP packet and to route the IP packet based on its routing table. If the destination IP address is one of the RTUs, the packet is then forwarded to the wireless ports and broadcasted as a PMP wireless packet to all the repeater / remotes stations. The appropriate remote then routes the IP packet and forwards it based on its routing table to the appropriate Ethernet port, encapsulating the appropriate next hop MAC header and forwarding it to the RTU. The RTU can then interpret and process the IP data and communication is established between the RTU and the initiating communication device.
Product Architecture | 71 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Static IP Router The Aprisa SR+ works in the point-to-multipoint (PMP) network as a standard static IP router with the Ethernet and wireless / radio as interfaces and serial ports using terminal server as a virtual interface. The Aprisa SR+ static router is semi-automated operation, where the routing table is automatically created in the base station and populated with routes to all remotes and repeater stations in the network during the registration process and vice versa, where the routing table is automatically created in remote and repeater stations and populated with routes to base station during the registration process. Updates occur when remote is disconnected from network for any reason, with the routing table updated in a controlled fashion. Also, in decommission operation, the base station routing tables are completely flushed allowing an automatic rebuild. This avoids the user manually inserting / removing of multiple static routes to build / change the routes in the network which might be tedious and introduce significant human error. The Aprisa SR+ works as a static IP router without using any routing protocol and therefore does not have the overhead of a routing protocol for better utilization of the narrow bandwidth network. In addition to the semi-automated routes, the user can manually add / remove routes in the routing table for the radio interface, Ethernet Interface and for routers which are connected to the radio network. The Aprisa SR+ base station is used as a gateway to other networks. . Thus, a configurable IP address default gateway can be set using a static route in the routing table with a destination IP address of the destination network address. It is recommended to use a real network IP address (actual device IP) for the gateway and not 0.0.0.0. The Aprisa SR+ sub-netting rules distinguish between the wireless interface and the remote Ethernet interface where RTUs are connected. The entire wireless network is set on a single IP subnet, while each Aprisa SR+ remote’s Ethernet interface is set to a different subnet network. In this way, the user can easily distinguish between the remotes subnet IP addresses.
72 | Product Architecture Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 The Radio Network as a Router The Aprisa SR+ point-to-multipoint radio network can be considered as a router where the ‘network Ethernet interface’ on each radio in the network is the ‘router port’. The routing table for all directly attached devices to the Aprisa SR+ network, at the Base or the Remote stations is automatically built and no static routes are required to be entered for those device routes. The ‘Radio interface IP address’ is used internally for the radio network and automatic routes. It is not used when setting static routes or default gateways. Static route IP addresses or the default gateway should use the ‘network Ethernet interface’ IP address. External network routers should be set with a high metric for the SR+ path, to prevent route updates being sent over the radio network. The Radio Network as a Router – Example The purpose of this example is to determine the static route setting for router R2 in the base station and remote station in the following network. Since the Aprisa SR+ network should be considered as a router where the network Ethernet interface is the ‘router port’, the network configuration for setting the static routes or the default gateway IP addresses is described in the follow figure: Thus, the static route setting for router R2 at the Aprisa SR+ base station and remote station will be: Destination Address Destination Mask Gateway Address Static Route Setting at ? 192.168.3.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.1 Base station 192.168.3.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.2 Remote station Note: The radio network (base station and remote stations) will automatically build routes to the attached device e.g. SCADA Master station or attached router e.g. router R1 so static routes are not required for these devices.
Product Architecture | 73 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Static IP Router – Human Error Free To ensure correct operation, the Aprisa SR+ router base station alerts when one (or more) of the devices is not configured for router mode or a duplicated IP is detected when manually added. When the user changes the base station IP address / subnet, the base station sends an ARP unsolicited announcement message and the remotes / repeaters auto-update their routing table accordingly. This also allows the router that is connected to the base station to update its next hop IP address and its routing table. When the user changes the remote / repeater station IP address / subnet, a re-registration process in the base station then auto-updates its routing table accordingly. Terminal Server - Transition to Converged Ethernet / IP Network Customers that are transitioning their SCADA network to an Ethernet / IP SCADA network, can simultaneously operate their legacy serial RTUs, not as a separate serial network to the new Ethernet / IP network, but as part of the Ethernet / IP network, by using the terminal server feature. The Aprisa SR+ terminal server is an application running in the radio that encapsulates serial traffic into Ethernet / IP traffic. For SCADA networks, this enables the use of both serial and Ethernet / IP RTUs within an Ethernet / IP based SCADA network.
74 | Product Architecture Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Bridge Mode with VLAN Aware Ethernet VLAN Bridge / Switch Overview The Aprisa SR+ in Bridge mode of operation is a standard Ethernet Bridge based on IEEE 802.1d or VLAN Bridge based on IEEE 802.1q/p which forward / switch Ethernet packet based on standard MAC addresses and VLANs using FDB (forwarding database) table decisions. VLAN is short for Virtual LAN and is a virtual separate network, within its own broadcast domain, but across the same physical network. VLANs offer several important benefits such as improved network performance, increased security and simplified network management. The Aprisa SR+ Bridge mode (see figure below), is the default mode of operation and it enables the switching / bridging of Ethernet VLAN tagged or untagged packets within the Aprisa SR+ wireless network and in and out to the external Industrial LAN network and RTUs devices connected to the Aprisa SR+ wired Ethernet ports or serial ports through the terminal server function. Within the Aprisa SR+ Bridge mode, each incoming Ethernet packet is inspected for the destination MAC address (and VLAN) and looks up its FDB table for information on where to send the specific Ethernet frame. If the FDB table doesn’t contain the specific MAC address, it will flood the Ethernet frame out to all ports in the broadcast domain and when using VLAN, the broadcast domain is narrowed to the specific VLAN used in the packet (i.e. broadcast will be done only to the ports which configured with that specific VLAN). The FDB table is used to store the MAC addresses that have been learnt and the ports associated with that MAC address. If the destination MAC address is one of the RTUs, the packet is then forwarded to the wireless ports and broadcast as a PMP wireless packet to all the repeater / remote stations. The appropriate remote then switches the Ethernet packet and forwards it based on its FDB table (based on the MAC or VLAN & MAC) to the appropriate Ethernet port to the RTU. The RTU can then interpret and process the Ethernet / IP data and communication is established between the RTU and the initiating communication device.
Product Architecture | 75 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 VLAN Bridge Mode Description General – Aprisa SR+ VLAN Bridge Aprisa SR+ works in the point-to-multipoint (PMP) network as a standard VLAN bridge with the Ethernet and wireless / radio as interfaces and serial ports using terminal server as a virtual interface. The Aprisa SR+ is a standard IEEE 802.1q VLAN bridge, where the FDB table is created by the bridge learning / aging process. New MACs are learnt and the FDB table updated. Unused MACs are aged out and flushed automatically after aging period. VLANs are statically configured by the user on the ports where a Virtual LAN is required across the radio network. An example of VLAN isolation of traffic type is shown in the figure below, where RTUs #1, 4 and 6 together with SCADA meter master form a Virtual LAN which is isolated from the other devices, even though they are on the same physical network. VLAN management can be used to manage with external NMS all the Aprisa SR+ devices on the radio network, and is automatically created with a VLAN ID = 1 default value. The VLAN ID can be changed by the user later on. Each device in the Aprisa SR+ bridge is identified by its own IP address, as shown in the figure.
76 | Product Architecture Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 VLANs – Single, Double and Trunk VLAN ports The Aprisa SR+ supports single VLAN (CVLAN), double VLAN (SVLAN) and trunk VLAN. A single VLAN can be used to segregate traffic type. A double VLAN can be used to distinguish between Aprisa SR+ sub-networks (base-repeater-remote), where the outer SVLAN is used to identify the sub-network and the CVLAN is used to identify the traffic type. In this case, a double tagged VLAN will be forwarded across the Industrial LAN network and switched based on the SVLAN to the appropriate Aprisa SR+ sub-network. When packet enters the Aprisa SR+ network, the SVLAN will be stripped off (removed) and the forwarding will be done based on the CVLAN, so only a single VLAN will pass through over the radio network and double VLAN will be valid on the borders of the radio network. Trunk VLAN is also supported by the Aprisa SR+ where the user can configure multiple VLANs on a specific Ethernet port, creating a trunk VLAN port. For example, in the above figure, a single trunk VLAN port is created between the switch and the Aprisa SR+ base station, carrying VLAN ID #1, 20, 30 and 40. VLAN Manipulation – Add / Remove VLAN Tags In order to support double VLAN and different device types connected to the Aprisa SR+ e.g. switches, RTUs, etc, which can be VLAN tagged or untagged / plain Ethernet devices, add / remove VLAN manipulation is required. In an Aprisa SR+ VLAN tagged network, a remote Aprisa SR+ connected to a plain RTU without VLAN support, will remove (strip-off) the VLAN tag from the packet before sending it to the RTU. On the other direction, when the RTU is sending an untagged packet, the Aprisa SR+ will add (append) an appropriate user pre-configure VLAN tag before sending it over the air to the base station. This is shown in the above figure on untagged RTU #5 and 7. QoS using VLAN VLANs carry 3 priority bits (PCP field) in the VLAN tag allowing prioritization of VLAN tagged traffic types with 8 levels of priority (where 7 is the highest priority and 0 is the lowest priority). The Aprisa SR+ supports QoS (Quality of Service) where the priority bits in the VLAN tagged frame are evaluated and mapped to four priority levels and four queues supported by the Aprisa SR+ radio. Packets in the queues are then scheduled out in a strict priority fashion for transmission over-the-air as per the priority level from high to low.
Product Architecture | 77 Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 Avoiding Narrow Band Radio Traffic Overloading The Aprisa SR+ supports mechanisms to prevent narrowband radio network overload: 1. L3/L4 Filtering The L3 filtering can be used to block undesired traffic from being transferred on the narrow band channel, occupying the channel and risking the SCADA critical traffic. L3/4 filtering has the ability to block a known IP address and applications using TCP/IP or UDP/IP protocols with multiple filtering rules. The L3 (/L4) filter can block/forward (discard/process) a specific IP address and a range of IP addresses. Each IP addressing filtering rule set can also be set to filter a L4 TCP or UDP port/s which in most cases relates to specific applications as per IANA official and unofficial well-known ports. For example, filter and block E-mail SMTP or TFTP protocol as undesired traffic over the SCADA network. The user can block a specific or range of IP port addresses, examples SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) TCP port 25 or TFTP (Simple Trivial File Transfer Protocol) UDP port 69. 2. L2 Address Filtering L2 Filtering (Bridge Mode) provides the ability to filter radio link traffic based on specified Layer 2 MAC addresses. Destination MAC (DA) addresses and a Source MAC (SA) addresses and protocol type (ARP, VLAN, IPv4, IPv6 or Any type) that meet the filtering criteria will be transmitted over the radio link. Traffic that does not meet the filtering criteria will not be transmitted over the radio link. 3. L2 Port VLANs Ingress Filtering and QoS Double VLAN (Bridge Mode) Double VLAN is used to distinguish/segregate between different radio sub-networks (Base-repeaters-remotes). Traffic with double VLANs which are not destined to a specific sub-network will be discarded on the ingress of the radio sub-network, avoiding the overload of the radio sub-network. Single VLAN (Bridge Mode) Single VLAN is used to distinguish/segregate between different traffic types assigned by the user in its industrial corporate LAN. In order to avoid the overload of the radio network, traffic with single VLANs which are not destined to a specific radio network will be discarded on the Ethernet ingress port of the radio network. All single VLANs which set and are eligible will be transmitted over the radio link. QoS using 802.1p priority bits (Bridge Mode) The priority bits can be used in the VLAN tagged frames to prioritized critical mission SCADA traffic and assure SCADA operation related to any other unimportant traffic. In this case, traffic base on VLAN priority (priority 0 to 7) entered to one of the four priority queues of the Aprisa SR/SR+ (Very High, High, Medium and Low). Traffic leaves the queues (to the radio network) from highest priority to lowest in a strict priority fashion. 4. Ethernet port QoS The Aprisa SR+ supports ‘Ethernet Per Port Prioritization’. Each Ethernet port can be assigned a priority and traffic shall be prioritized accordingly. This is quite useful in networks where customers do not use VLANs or cannot use 802.1p prioritization.
78 | Product Architecture Aprisa SR+ Product Description 1.5.0 5. Ethernet Data and Management Priority and Background Bulk Data Transfer Rate Alternatively to VLAN priority, users can control the Ethernet traffic priority (vs serial), management priority and rate in order to control the traffic load of the radio network, where important and high priority data (SCADA) will pass-through first assuring SCADA network operation. The user can set the use of the Ethernet Data Priority, which controls the priority of the Ethernet customer traffic relative to the serial customer traffic and can be set to one of the four queues. The Ethernet Management Priority controls the priority of the Ethernet management traffic relative to Ethernet customer traffic and can be set to one of the four queues. The Background Bulk Data Transfer Rate sets the data transfer rate (high, medium, low) for large amounts of management data. 6. Ethernet Packet Time to Live Another aspect of avoiding overload radio network is the Ethernet packet TTL, which is used to prevent old, redundant packets being transmitted through the radio network. This sets the time an Ethernet packet is allowed to live in the system before being dropped if it cannot be transmitted over the air. 7. Robust Header Compression (ROHC) and Payload Compression Aprisa SR+ supports ROHC (Robust Header Compression RFC3095). ROHC is a standard way to compress IP, UDP and TCP headers and this significantly increases IP traffic throughput especially in narrow band network. Aprisa SR+ supports payload compression. A Lempel–Ziv (LZ) algorithm is used to efficiently compress up to 50% traffic with high percentage of repetitive strings. Both serial and Ethernet / IP payload traffic are compressed.
