NTP-D23 Log into the ONS 15454 SDH GUI
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-D60 Log into CTC” task on page 17-49.
Note For information about navigating in CTC, see Appendix A, “CTC Information and Shortcuts.”
CTC, during network topology discovery, polls each node in the network to determine which one
contains the most recent version of the CTC software. If CTC discovers a node in the network that has
a more recent version of the CTC software than the version you are currently running, CTC generates a
message stating that a later version of the CTC has been found in the network, and offers to install the
CTC software upgrade. If you have network discovery disabled, CTC will not seek more recent versions
of the software. Unreachable nodes are not included in the upgrade discovery.
Note Upgrading the CTC software will overwrite your existing software. You must restart CTC after
the upgrade is complete.
Step 2 As needed, complete the “DLP-D61 Create Login Node Groups” task on page 17-51. Login node groups
allow you to manage nodes that are not connected to the login node through a data communications
channel (DCC).
Step 3 As needed, complete the “DLP-D62 Add a Node to the Current Session or Login Group” task on
page 17-53.
Step 4 As needed, complete the “DLP-D35 Delete a Node from the Current Session or Login Group” task on
page 17-27.
Step 5 As needed, complete the “DLP-D25 Configure the CTC Alerts Dialog Box for Automatic Popup” task
on page 17-20.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
Purpose This procedure logs into CTC, the graphical user interface software used to
