6. NTP-G99 Modify Line Settings and PM Parameter Thresholds for MXP_MR_2.5G and
MXPP_MR_2.5G Cards, page 5-65—As needed, complete this procedure to change the
transmission settings for MXP_MR_2.5G and MXPP_MR_2.5G cards.
NTP-G128 Manage Pluggable Port Modules
Note The hardware device that plugs into a TXP or MXP card faceplate to provide a fiber interface to the card
is called a Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP). In Cisco Transport Controller (CTC), SFPs are called
PPMs.
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-G46 Log into CTC” task on page 2-25 to log into an ONS 15454 on the network. If
you are already logged in, continue with Step 2.
Step 2 Click the Alarms tab:
a. Verify that the alarm filter is not turned on. See the “DLP-G128 Disable Alarm Filtering” task on
page 8-28 as necessary.
b. Verify that no unexplained conditions appear on the network. If unexplained conditions appear,
resolve them before continuing. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide or the
Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide.
c. Complete the “DLP-G114 Export CTC Data” task on page 8-4 to export alarm and condition
information.
Step 3 Complete the “DLP-G277 Provision a Multirate PPM” task on page 5-3. If you preprovisioned a
multirate PPM (DLP-G273 Preprovision an SFP or XFP Slot, page 3-46), skip this step and continue
with Step 4. Single-rate PPMs do not require provisioning.
Step 4 If you are provisioning an IBM External Time Reference – Control Link Oscillator (ETR_CLO) or
InterSystem Coupling link (ISC) service on the PPM, complete “DLP-G274 Verify Topologies for
ETR_CLO and ISC Services” task on page 5-4. Otherwise, continue with Step 5.
Step 5 Complete the “DLP-G278 Provision the Optical Line Rate” task on page 5-6 to assign a line rate to a
TXP or MXP port.
Step 6 Complete the “DLP-G279 Change the Optical Line Rate” task on page 5-8 as needed. Table 5-1 on
page 5-7 lists the available rates for each TXP and MXP card.
Step 7 Complete the “DLP-G280 Delete a PPM” task on page 5-8 as needed.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
Purpose Complete this procedure to provision a multirate PPM, provision or change
the optical line rate of a multirate PPM, or delete a PPM. If a single-rate
PPM is installed, the PPM screen will autoprovision and no further steps
are necessary.
