NTP-D35 Verify Node Turn-Up
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-D60 Log into CTC” task on page 17-49. If you are already logged in, continue with
Step 2.
Step 2 Click the Alarms tab.
a. Verify that the alarm filter is not on. See the “DLP-D227 Disable Alarm Filtering” task on
page 19-25 as necessary.
b. Verify that no unexplained alarms appear on the network. If alarms appear, investigate and resolve
them before continuing. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide if necessary.
Step 3 Verify that the SW Version and Defaults in the node view status area match the software version and NE
defaults shown in your site plan. If either is not correct, complete the following procedures as needed:
• If the software is not the correct version, install the correct version from the ONS 15454 SDH
software CD. Upgrade procedures are located in a release-specific upgrade document. Follow the
upgrade procedures appropriate to the software currently installed on the node. TCC2/TCC2P cards
can also be ordered with the latest software release.
• If the node defaults are not correct, import the network element defaults. Refer to the “Network
Element Defaults” appendix in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Reference Manual.
Purpose This procedure verifies that an ONS 15454 SDH is ready for network turn
up before adding it to a network.
