DLP-G107 Create an IP-Encapsulated Tunnel
DLP-G107 Create an IP-Encapsulated Tunnel
Note Each ONS 15454 can have up to ten IP-encapsulated tunnel connections. Terminated Section DCCs
(SDCCs) used by the ONS 15454 cannot be used as a tunnel endpoint, and an SDCC that is used as a
tunnel endpoint cannot be terminated. All tunnel connections are bidirectional.
Step 1 Verify that IP addresses are provisioned at both the source and destination nodes of the planned tunnel.
For more information, see the “DLP-G56 Provision IP Settings” task on page 3-12.
Step 2 In network view, click the Provisioning > Overhead Circuits tabs.
Step 3 Click Create.
Step 4 In the Overhead Circuit Creation dialog box, complete the following in the Circuit Attributes area:
• Name—Type the tunnel name.
• Type—Choose IP Tunnel-D1-D3.
• Maximum Bandwidth—Type the percentage of total SDCC bandwidth used in the IP tunnel (the
minimum percentage is 10 percent).
Step 5 Click Next.
Step 6 In the Circuit Source area, complete the following:
• Node—Choose the source node.
• Slot—Choose the source slot.
• Port—If applicable, choose the source port.
• Channel—Displays IPT (D1-D3).
Step 7 Click Next.
Step 8 In the Circuit Destination area, complete the following:
• Node—Choose the destination node.
• Slot—Choose the destination slot.
• Port—If applicable, choose the destination port.
• Channel—Displays IPT (D1-D3).
Purpose This task creates an IP-encapsulated tunnel to transport traffic from
third-party SONET/SDH equipment across ONS 15454 networks.
IP-encapsulated tunnels are created on the Section DCC channel (D1-D3)
(if not used by the ONS 15454 as a terminated data communications
channel [DCC]).
Tools/Equipment An OSCM, OSC-CSM, MXP_2.5_10E, MXP_2.5_10G,
MXPP_MR_2.5G, or MXP_MR_2.5G card must be installed.
