Chapter 5 Turn Up Network
NTP-A225 Open-Ended Path Protection Acceptance Test
Step 12
At the circuit source card:
a.
Connect the Tx connector of the test set to the circuit Rx connector.
b.
Connect the test set Rx connector to the circuit Tx connector.
Step 13
Verify that the test set shows a clean signal. If a clean signal does not appear, repeat Steps
through
to make sure the test set and cabling are configured correctly.
Step 14
Inject BIT errors from the test set. To verify that you have a complete end-to-end circuit, verify that the
errors appear at the test set.
Step 15
Complete the
“DLP-A356 TCC2/TCC2P Card Active/Standby Switch Test” task on page 20-40
.
Step 16
Complete the
“DLP-A255 Cross-Connect Card Side Switch Test” task on page 19-37
Although a service interruption under 60 ms may occur, the test circuit should continue to work before,
during, and after the switches. If the circuit stops working, do not continue. Contact your next level of
support.
Step 17
From the View menu, choose
Go to Network View
.
Step 18
Click one of the two spans leaving the circuit source node.
Step 19
Complete the
“DLP-A94 Path Protection Switching Test” task on page 17-95
to test the path protection
protection switching function on this span.
Step 20
In network view, click the other circuit source span and repeat
.
Step 21
Set up and complete a BER test. Use the existing configuration and follow your site requirements for the
length of time. Record the test results and configuration.
Step 22
Complete the
“DLP-A333 Delete Circuits” task on page 20-21
for the test circuit.
Step 23
Remove any loopbacks, switches, or test sets from the nodes after all testing is complete.
Step 24
In network view, click the
Alarms
tab.
a.
Verify that the alarm filter is not on. See the
“DLP-A227 Disable Alarm Filtering” task on
as necessary.
b.
Verify that no unexplained alarms appear on the network. If unexplained alarms appear, resolve
them before continuing. Refer to the
Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide
if necessary.
c.
Complete the
“DLP-A516 Export CTC Data” task on page 22-6
to export the alarm information.
Step 25
In network view, click the
Conditions
tab.
a.
Verify that no unexplained conditions appear on the network. If unexplained conditions appear,
resolve them before continuing. Refer to the
Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide
if necessary.
b.
Complete the
“DLP-A516 Export CTC Data” task on page 22-6
to export the conditions
information.
Step 26
Repeat Steps
through
for each node that will be a source or destination for circuits traversing the
third-party network.
Step 27
If a node fails any test, repeat the test while verifying correct setup and configuration. If the test fails
again, refer to the next level of support.
After all tests are successfully completed and no alarms exist in the network, the network is ready for
service application. Continue with
Chapter 6, “Create Circuits and VT Tunnels.”
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
