NTP- D40 Provision MS-SPRing Nodes
Step 17 Remove any loopbacks, switches, or test sets from the nodes after all testing is complete.
Step 18 In network view, 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 unexplained alarms appear, resolve
them before continuing. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide if necessary.
Step 19 Delete the test circuit. See the “DLP-D27 Delete Circuits” task on page 17-21.
Step 20 In network view, double-click the next linear ADM node to open it in node view and repeat Steps 6
through 19.
Step 21 If a node fails any test, repeat the test while verifying correct setup and configuration. If the test fails
again, refer to the next level of support.
After all tests are successfully completed and no alarms exist in the network, the network is ready for
service application.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
NTP-D40 Provision MS-SPRing Nodes
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-D338 Install Fiber-Optic Cables for MS-SPRing Configurations” task on
page 20-37, verifying that the following rules are observed:
• Verify that the east port at one node is connected to the west port on an adjacent node, and this east
to west port connection is used at all MS-SPRing nodes, similar to Figure 5-2. In the figure, the
STM-N drop card on the left side of the shelf is the west port, and the drop card on the right side of
the shelf is considered the east port.
Purpose This procedure provisions ONS 15454 SDH nodes for an MS-SPRing.
