Chapter 2 General
Overview
The Socket Based Router (SBR) is an OpenWay networking device whose software and
hardware are designed to route and forward information and to connect two or more logical
subnets (which do not necessarily map one-to-one to the physical interfaces of the router).
In other words, the SBR incorporates traditional router functionality in addition to relay
characteristics.
The Socket Based Router combines the existing cell relay functionality with the capability to
serve as an Internet Protocol (IP) network router. The SBR includes the capability to perform
the wrapping and unwrapping of the different IP versions. The SBR is a high capacity
OpenWay solution capable of simultaneous support of Wide Area Networks (WAN), Remote
Area Networks (RAN), and Local Area Networks (LAN).
The SBR provides dual-mesh network support by supporting both RFLAN and OpenWay
Riva mesh networks simultaneously while maintaining full cell relay functionality between
RFLAN meters. The SBR also improves OpenWay Riva mesh network by serving as a
gateway for distribution automation and adding new devices and applications such as
OpenWay Riva gas and water metering, streetlights, and future active grid applications
including Distributed Intelligence. Adaptive Communications Technology (ACT) for network
communications and distributed intelligence applications enables the SBR to support
various modulation rates with automatic selection of optimal data rates.
Using an independent base meter along with a specially designed router enclosure allows
the utility more flexibility with inventory management and field support. The SBR can be
serviced or replaced without disrupting meter service. The base meter remains in place
during field activities. The base meter uses a standard 2S form meter socket (either ring or
ringless).
Local access to the Socket Based Router is through secure Wifi. The Socket Based Router
is also accessible using SSH/Telnet through Port 22. Base meter local access is through
either zigbee or the optical port. Backhaul communications are with 4G/LTE cellular with
backward compatibility to 3G.
The Socket Based Router is designed with two field-replaceable battery packs that provide
up to 8 hours of hold-up time. In addition, these dual battery packs permit automated battery
health checks.

System LED
The Socket Based Router contains two System LEDs: one internal to the router and one
located externally on the bottom left corner of the router box. The external LED provides a
view of the router status without the need to open the router box. The states of the external
LED mirror the states of the internal LED. The possible SYSLED states are
• Blink Red: C12.22 relay started, trying to establish a TCP connection to the CE
• Blink Green: TCP communication OK, registration with CE in progress
• Green: Registered with CE
• Red: Error (No CE communication, no backhaul, no RFLAN module…
Battery LED
The Socket Based Router contains two battery LEDs; one for each battery. If the Socket
Based Router is configured with either one or two batteries, the LED states are:
• Green: OK
• Alternate Green/Red (blink): Battery below warning capacity threshold
• Red: Battery below critical capacity threshold
If the Socket Based Router is configured with:

All generated events are managed by the local syslog. This behavior cannot be changed. A
configuration item allows the events to duplicated and sent to a remote server:

Operation
Alarms are generated by Itron services. Itron Services monitor several parameters to ensure
the proper operation of the SBR. When an alarm is asserted, the services call a shell script:
sbr-alarm with an "alarm_on" parameter to signal the alarm. When an alarm is turned off,
the alarm script is also called with “alarm_off”. Every minute, if an alarm is still present, the
alarm script is called as a redundancy measure.
Discrimination of new alarms and redundancies is performed using an alarm counter that is
only incremented when an alarm is new. There is one alarm counter per alarm type.
Counters can be reset through the HTTPS API. The default behavior of the alarm script is
the following.
1. Log a generic message in the local syslog.
2. Perform one or several action(s) related to the specific alarm, if necessary.
Furthermore, a configuration item allows the generic events to be duplicated and sent to a
remote syslog server: alarm_server. This default behavior can be changed by modifying the
sbr-alarm script, without the need to rebuild the Itron binaries.
The alarm script syntax is the following:
sbr-alarm    
The generated events have the following characteristics:
• Priority:
o Alarm ON: daemon.warning
o Alarm OFF: daemon.notice
• Tag: sbr-alarm
• Value: Alarm: ON/OFF - Condition:  - Value:  - Count:

Examples:
• sbr-alarm: Alarm: ON - Condition: battery_removed - Value: 2 - Count: 12
• sbr-alarm: Alarm: ON - Condition: door - Value: opened - Count: 25
• sbr-alarm: Alarm: OFF - Condition: door - Value: opened - Count: 25
