NTP-A127 Verify Network Turn Up
Step 1
Complete the
“DLP-A60 Log into CTC” task on page 17-66
. If you are already logged in, continue with
Step 2
From the View menu, choose
Go to Network View
. Wait for all the nodes that are part of the network
to appear on the network map. (Large networks might take several minutes to display all the nodes.)
Note
If this is the first time your computer has connected to this ONS 15454 network, the node icons
are stacked on the left side of the graphic area, possibly out of view. Use the scroll bar under the
network map to display the icons. To separate the icons, press
Ctrl
and drag and drop the icon
to the new location. Repeat until all the nodes are visible on the graphic area.
Step 3
Verify node accessibility. In the network view, all node icons must be either green, yellow, orange, or red.
If all network nodes do not appear after a few minutes, or if a node icon is gray with “Unknown” under
it, do not continue. Look at the Net box in the lower right corner of the window. If it is gray, log in again,
making sure not to check the Disable Network check box in the CTC Login dialog box. If problems
persist, see
to review the network turn-up procedure appropriate for your
network topology, or refer to the
Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide
for troubleshooting
procedures.
Step 4
Verify DCC connectivity. All nodes must be connected by green lines. If lines are missing or gray in
color, do not continue. See
and follow the network turn-up procedure
appropriate for your network topology. Verify that all nodes have DCC connectivity before continuing.
Step 5
Click the
Alarms
tab to view alarm descriptions. Investigate and resolve, if necessary, all critical (red
node icon) or major (orange node icon) alarms. Refer to the
Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide
to
resolve alarms before continuing.
Step 6
From the View menu, choose
Go to Home View
. Verify that the node is provisioned according to your
site or engineering plan:
a.
View the cards in the shelf map. Verify that the ONS 15454 cards appear in the specified slots.
b.
Click the
Provisioning > General
tabs. Verify that the node name, contacts, date, time, and Network
Time Protocol/Simple Network Time Protocol (NTP/SNTP) server IP address (if used) are correctly
provisioned. If needed, make corrections using the
“NTP-A25 Set Up Name, Date, Time, and
Contact Information” procedure on page 4-4
.
c.
Click the
Network
tab. Verify that the IP address, Subnet Mask, Default Router, Prevent LCD IP
Config, and Gateway Settings are correctly provisioned. If not, make corrections using the
“NTP-A169 Set Up CTC Network Access” procedure on page 4-7
d.
Click the
Protection
tab. Verify that protection groups are created as specified in your site plan. If
the protection groups are not created, complete the
“NTP-A170 Create Protection Groups”
e.
If the node is in a BLSR, click the
BLSR
tab. (If the node is not in a BLSR, continue with Step f.)
Verify that the following items are provisioned as specified in your site plan:
•
BLSR type (2-fiber or 4-fiber)
•
BLSR ring ID and node IDs
•
Ring reversion time
•
East and west card assignments
•
4-fiber BLSRs: span reversion and east/west protect card assignments
If you need to make corrections, see the
“NTP-A40 Provision BLSR Nodes” procedure on page 5-10
for instructions.
