NTP-G44 Perform the Anti-ASE Hub Node Acceptance Test
Step 19 Click the Performance > Optics PM > Current Values tabs.
Step 20 Under the Port 2 (Trunk) column, locate the RX Optical Power value. Verify that the value matches the
power in Step 16, +/– 2 dBm. If the power values do not match (+/– 2 dBm), remove, clean, and replace
the cable connecting the TXP_MR_2.5G RX port to the west fiber patch panel DMX port for the tested
wavelength. See the “NTP-G115 Clean Fiber Connectors” procedure on page 13-25 and repeat this step.
If the power values still do not match (+/– 2 dBm), contact your next level of support.
Step 21 Repeat Steps 4 through 20 for the remaining wavelengths.
Step 22 Display the west 32WSS in card view.
Step 23 Click the Maintenance tab.
Step 24 Click the table cell under Operating Mode and choose Not Assigned from the drop-down list for all
wavelengths.
Step 25 Click Apply, then click Ye s to confirm.
Step 26 Remove the TXP or tunable laser from the west side patch panel.
Step 27 Unplug the physical loopback fiber from the line TX and RX in the OPT-BST or OSC-CSM card.
Step 28 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
NTP-G44 Perform the Anti-ASE Hub Node Acceptance Test
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-G46 Log into CTC” task on page 2-25 at the node where you want to perform the
acceptance test. If you are already logged in, continue with Step 2.
Step 2 From the View menu, choose Go to Network View.
Step 3 Click the Alarms tab.
a. Verify that the alarm filter is not on. See the “DLP-G128 Disable Alarm Filtering” task on page 8-28
as necessary.
b. Verify that no equipment (EQPT) alarms appear indicating equipment failure or other hardware
problems. If alarms appear, investigate and resolve them before continuing. Refer to the
Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide or the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide for
procedures.
Purpose This procedure tests an anti-ASE hub node.
Tools/Equipment A tunable laser or eight TXP_MR_2.5G cards covering the 32 C-band
wavelengths (see Table 4-1)
An optical power meter or optical spectrum analyzer
2 bulk attenuators (10 dB) with LC connectors
