Provisioning timing sources
...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
When to use
The purpose of provisioning timing sources is to provide a timing source with a
defined quality level (QL), and to assign a valid physical timing reference to the
logical timing source used to synchronize the network element.
In the following two cases this procedure must be performed:
• As the first procedure to complete when provisioning the network element timing.
• If the network element system timing will operate in the locked mode.
Related information
Related procedures are:
• “Provisioning system timing” (p. 7-29)
• “Provisioning output port timing” (p. 7-44)
• Provision MSP.
Parameters used in this procedure can be found at “Parameters for provisioning timing
sources ” (p. 7-24).
Before you begin
Before starting this procedure, make sure that:
• A network element synchronization plan must be available.
Pay attention to the following item:
• Incorrect settings for worker/protection references and quality level-provisioning
can cause a timing loop.
Assign working reference to timing source
To assign a (working) timing reference to a timing source for the 1643 AM or 1643
AMS without STM-1 tributaries, follow this procedure:
...................................................................................................................................................................................................
1
Select Provisioning --> Timing --> Timing Sources
Result: The Provisioned NE Timing Source Information window appears.
...................................................................................................................................................................................................
2
Select a source that must be edited from the list and click Assign.
Result: The Assign Timing Reference to Timing Source window appears.
...................................................................................................................................................................................................
3
Select a slot (or a ″-″) from the list under Reference.
