Chapter 2 GeneralOverviewThe Socket Based Router (SBR) is an OpenWay networking device whose software andhardware are designed to route and forward information and to connect two or more logicalsubnets (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 relaycharacteristics.The Socket Based Router combines the existing cell relay functionality with the capability toserve as an Internet Protocol (IP) network router. The SBR includes the capability to performthe wrapping and unwrapping of the different IP versions. The SBR is a high capacityOpenWay solution capable of simultaneous support of Wide Area Networks (WAN), RemoteArea Networks (RAN), and Local Area Networks (LAN).The SBR provides dual-mesh network support by supporting both RFLAN and OpenWayRiva mesh networks simultaneously while maintaining full cell relay functionality betweenRFLAN meters. The SBR also improves OpenWay Riva mesh network by serving as agateway for distribution automation and adding new devices and applications such asOpenWay Riva gas and water metering, streetlights, and future active grid applicationsincluding Distributed Intelligence. Adaptive Communications Technology (ACT) for networkcommunications and distributed intelligence applications enables the SBR to supportvarious modulation rates with automatic selection of optimal data rates.Using an independent base meter along with a specially designed router enclosure allowsthe utility more flexibility with inventory management and field support. The SBR can beserviced or replaced without disrupting meter service. The base meter remains in placeduring field activities. The base meter uses a standard 2S form meter socket (either ring orringless).Local access to the Socket Based Router is through secure Wifi. The Socket Based Routeris also accessible using SSH/Telnet through Port 22. Base meter local access is througheither zigbee or the optical port. Backhaul communications are with 4G/LTE cellular withbackward compatibility to 3G.The Socket Based Router is designed with two field-replaceable battery packs that provideup to 8 hours of hold-up time. In addition, these dual battery packs permit automated batteryhealth checks.ArchitectureTDC-xxxx-xxx DRAFT 4Proprietary and Confidential

The external LED provides aview of the router status without the need to open the router box. The states of the externalLED 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 LEDThe Socket Based Router contains two battery LEDs; one for each battery. If the SocketBased 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 thresholdIf the Socket Based Router is configured with:• only one battery the LED for the second battery LED will be in the off state.• two batteries and one is missing, the corresponding LED will be in the red stateEventsAll generated events are managed by the local syslog. This behavior cannot be changed. Aconfiguration item allows the events to duplicated and sent to a remote server:syslog_serverAlarmsOperationTDC-xxxx-xxx DRAFT 28Proprietary and Confidential
Alarms are generated by Itron services. Itron Services monitor several parameters to ensurethe 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, thealarm script is called as a redundancy measure.Discrimination of new alarms and redundancies is performed using an alarm counter that isonly 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 isthe 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 aremote syslog server: alarm_server. This default behavior can be changed by modifying thesbr-alarm script, without the need to rebuild the Itron binaries.The alarm script syntax is the following:sbr-alarm <alarm_name> <alarm_on|alarm_off> <value_or_state> <counter> The generated events have the following characteristics:• Priority:o Alarm ON: daemon.warningo Alarm OFF: daemon.notice• Tag: sbr-alarm• Value: Alarm: ON/OFF - Condition: <alarm_name> - Value: <value_or_state> - Count:<counter>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: 25List of AlarmsThe following is a list of the alarms provided by the Socket Based Router.• CPU Temp High• CPU Temp Low• Board Temp HighOperationTDC-xxxx-xxx DRAFT 29Proprietary and Confidential
