Managing the DCC
...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
When to use
The purpose of this procedure is to change the DCC status in the Regenerator Section
(RS) and Multiplexer Section (MS) of each STM-N port.
Use this procedure to reduce the exchange of routing data between network elements.
Reduction of the exchange of management data is done in order to optimize the Data
Communications Network (DCN). The DCC status can be set to enabled or disabled in
order to achieve this.
Related information
Refer to “Concepts” (p. 4-3).
Before you begin
Pay attention to the following:
• Disabling DCC can cause permanent loss of association between the management
system (ITMCIT) and the network element. In that case the DCC ports can be
enabled by a local login with the Local Workstation.
• Enabling DCC can cause instability in the Data Communications Network (DCN).
• A data communications network plan must be available.
