Chapter 3      Turn Up a Node
DLP-G59 Set Up or Change Open Shortest Path First Protocol
Step 1 In node view, click the Provisioning > Network tabs.
Step 2 Click the Static Routing tab. Click Create.
Step 3 In the Create Static Route dialog box, enter the following: 
• Destination—Enter the IP address of the computer running CTC. To limit access to one computer, 
enter the full IP address and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255. To allow access to all computers on 
the 192.168.1.0 subnet, enter 192.168.1.0 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. You can enter a 
destination of 0.0.0.0 to allow access to all CTC computers that connect to the router.
• Mask—Enter a subnet mask. If the destination is a host route (that is, one CTC computer), enter a 
32-bit subnet mask (255.255.255.255). If the destination is a subnet, adjust the subnet mask 
accordingly, for example, 255.255.255.0. If the destination is 0.0.0.0, CTC automatically enters a 
subnet mask of 0.0.0.0 to provide access to all CTC computers. You cannot change this value.
• Next Hop—Enter the IP address of the router port or the node IP address if the CTC computer is 
connected to the node directly.
• Cost—Enter the number of hops between the ONS 15454 and the computer. 
Step 4 Click OK. Verify that the static route appears in the Static Route window.
Note Static route networking examples are provided in Chapter 22, “Management Connectivity 
Reference.”
Step 5 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
DLP-G59 Set Up or Change Open Shortest Path First Protocol
Step 1 In node view, click the Provisioning > Network > OSPF tabs.
Step 2 On the top left side of the OSPF pane, complete the following:
• DCC/GCC OSPF Area ID Table—In dotted decimal format, enter the number that identifies the 
ONS 15454 nodes as a unique OSPF area ID. The Area ID can be any number between 
000.000.000.000 and 255.255.255.255, but must be unique to the LAN OSPF area.
Purpose This task enables the OSPF routing protocol on the ONS 15454. Perform 
this task if you want to include the ONS 15454 in OSPF-enabled networks
Tools/Equipment None
Prerequisite Procedures DLP-G46 Log into CTC, page 2-25
You will need the OSPF Area ID, Hello and Dead intervals, and 
authentication key (if OSPF authentication is enabled) provisioned on the 
router to which the ONS 15454 is connected.
