CTC Information and Shortcuts
This appendix describes the Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) views, menu and tool options, shortcuts,
and table display options. This appendix also describes the shelf inventory data presented in CTC. For
more information about CTC, refer to the
Cisco ONS 15310-MA SDH Reference Manual .
Note If network discovery is enabled on the node, CTC searches each node in the network for more recent
versions of the CTC software. If a more recent version is discovered, CTC gives you the option of
downloading the Java archive (JAR) files to your PC.
Display Node, Card, and Network and Views
CTC provides three views of the ONS 15310-MA SDH and ONS network:
•
Node view appears when you first log into an ONS 15310-MA SDH. This view shows a graphic of
the ONS 15310-MA SDH shelf and provides access to tabs and subtabs that you use to manage the
node.
• Card view provides access to individual ONS 15310-MA SDH cards. This view provides a graphic
of the card and access to tabs and subtabs that you use to manage the card.
•
Network view shows all the nodes in a ring. A Superuser can set up this feature so each user will see
the same network view, or the user can create a custom view with maps. This view provides access
to tabs and subtabs that you use to manage the network. Network view can contain domains. A
domain is used to isolate nodes or groups of nodes for easier maintenance. Double-clicking a domain
shows all the nodes in the domain; nodes connected to the domain are grayed out.
Table A-1 lists different actions for changing CTC views.
