Network Element Defaults
This appendix describes the factory-configured (default) network element (NE) settings for the
Cisco ONS 15600 SDH. It includes descriptions of card default settings and node default settings. For
procedures for importing, exporting and editing the settings, refer to the “Maintain the Node” chapter of
the
Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Procedure Guide
. Cards supported by this platform that are not listed in this
appendix are not supported by user-configurable NE defaults settings.
To change card settings individually (that is, without directly changing the NE defaults), refer to the
“Change Card Settings” chapter of the
Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Procedure Guide
. To change node
settings, refer to the “Change Node Settings” chapter of the
Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Procedure Guide
.
This appendix includes the following sections:

C.2 Card Default Settings, page C-2

C.4 CTC Default Settings, page C-39
C.1 Network Element Defaults Description
The NE defaults are preinstalled on each Cisco ONS 15600 SDH TSC card. Cisco also ships a file named
15600SDH-defaults.txt on the Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) software CD in case you want to import
the defaults onto existing TSC cards. The NE defaults include card-level, CTC, and node-level defaults.
Changes to card provisioning that are made manually using the procedures in the “Change Card
Settings” chapter in the
Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Procedure Guide
override default settings. If you use the
CTC Defaults editor (on the node view Provisioning > Defaults tab) or import a new defaults file, any
changes to card or port settings that result only affect cards that are installed or preprovisioned after the
defaults have changed.
Changes that are made manually to most node-level default settings override the current settings,
whether default or provisioned. If you change node-level default settings, either by using the Defaults
editor or by importing a new defaults file, the new defaults reprovision the node immediately for all
settings except those relating to protection (1+1 bidirectional switching, 1+1 reversion time, 1+1
revertive switching, multiplex section-shared protection ring [MS-SPRing] ring reversion time,
MS-SPRing ring revertive switching, MS-SPRing span reversion time, and MS-SPRing span revertive
switching). Settings relating to protection apply to subsequent provisioning.
