1.3.2 Perform a Cross-Connect Loopback on the Source OC-N Port
1.3.2 Perform a Cross-Connect Loopback on the Source OC-N Port
The cross-connect loopback test occurs on the cross-connect portion of the controller card
(15310-CL-CTX or CTX2500) in a network circuit. Completing a successful cross-connect loopback
through the card isolates the possibility that the cross-connect is the cause of the faulty circuit.
Create the Cross-Connect Loopback on the Source OC-N Port
Step 1
Connect an optical test set to the port you are testing:
a.
If you just completed the
“1.3.1 Perform a Facility Loopback on a Source-Node OC-N Port”
procedure on page 1-13
, leave the optical test set connected to the OC-N port in the source node.
b.
If you are starting the current procedure without the optical test set connected to the OC-N port, use
appropriate cabling to attach the Tx and Rx terminals of the optical test set to the port you are
testing.
c.
Adjust the test set accordingly.
Step 2
Use CTC to put the circuit being tested out of service:
a.
In node view, click the
Circuits
tab.
b.
Click the circuit and then click
Edit
.
c.
In the Edit Circuit dialog box, click the
State
tab.
d.
Choose
OOS-MT
from the Target Circuit Admin State drop-down list.
e.
Click
Apply
.
f.
Click
Yes
in the confirmation dialog box.
Step 3
Use CTC to set up the cross-connect loopback on the circuit being tested:
a.
In node view, double-click the 15310-CL-CTX or CTX2500 to open the card view.
b.
For the OC-N port, click the
Maintenance > Optical > Loopback > SONET STS
tabs.
c.
Click the check box in the XC Loopback column for the port being tested.
d.
Click
Apply
.
e.
Click
Yes
in the confirmation dialog box.
Step 4
Continue with the
“Test the Cross-Connect Loopback Circuit” procedure on page 1-15
.
Test the Cross-Connect Loopback Circuit
Step 1
If the test set is not already sending traffic, send test traffic on the loopback circuit.
Step 2
Examine the test traffic received by the test set. Look for errors or any other signal information that the
test set is capable of indicating.
Step 3
If the test set indicates a good circuit, no further testing is necessary with the cross-connect. Clear the
cross-connect loopback:
a.
In card view, click the
Maintenance > Optical > Loopback > SONET STS
tabs.
b.
Uncheck the check box in the XC Loopback column for the circuit being tested.
