Scenario 2: Using Cisco Catalyst Switch 3650, ONS 15454, NCS 2006, and NCS 2015 SSCs Can
Be Connected to the ONS 15454 NC
1
Using a cross-over (CAT-5) LAN cable:
a
Plug one connector into Port 1 of the active Catalyst 3560.
b
Plug the other connector into the MSM port of the NC corresponding to the control card in Slot 7.
2
Using a cross-over (CAT-5) LAN cable:
a
Plug one connector into Port 1 of the standby Catalyst 3560.
b
Plug the other connector into the MSM port of the NC corresponding to Slot 11.
3
Using a cross-over (CAT-5) LAN cable, plug one connector into Port 23 of the active Catalyst 3560. Plug
the other end into Port 23 of the standby Catalyst 3560.
4
To connect all the SSCs to the Catalyst 3560 switches, use a cross-over (CAT-5) LAN cable.
a
Plug one connector into:
b
M-MSM-1 port of NCS 2015 SSC that corresponds to the control card in Slot 1
c
MSM port of NCS 2006 SSC that corresponds to the control card in Slot 1.
d
RJ-45 port of the control card in Slot 7 of ONS 15454 SSC.
e
Plug the other end into Port 2 of the active Catalyst 3560.
f
Using a cross-over (CAT-5) LAN cable, plug one connector into:
g
P-MSM-1 port of NCS 2015 SSC that corresponds to the control card in Slot 17
h
MSM port of NCS 2006 SSC that corresponds to the control card in Slot 8.
i
RJ-45 port of the control card in Slot 11 of ONS 15454 SSC.
j
Plug the other end into Port 2 of the standby Catalyst 3560.
5
To configure the active and standby Catalyst 3560, complete the NTP-L63 Configure a Cisco Catalyst
3560 (Active and Standby) for a Multishelf Node, on page 413
Ring Topology
The control cards supported are:
•
NCS 2015 shelf: TNCS, TNCS-O
•
NCS 2006 shelf: TNCE, TSCE, TNCS, TNCS-O
•
ONS 15454 shelf: TCC3
The following ring topologies are supported:
Scenario 1: Cisco NCS 2015 Node Controller and NCS 2015 Subtending Shelves in a Ring
Topology
The ring topology can be created using only RJ-45 MSM ports, only SFP MSM ports, or a mix of RJ-45 and
SFP MSM ports.You can connect up to a maximum of 10 SSCs in the ring topology.
1
To create a ring topology using only RJ-45 MSM ports, perform Steps 4 through 7.
