NTP- D344 Open-Ended SNCP Acceptance Test
• Node 3 and 4: Slot 5
Note If an ONS 15454 SDH is not connected to a corporate LAN, DCC or MS-DCC provisioning
must be performed through a direct (craft) connection. Remote provisioning is possible only
after all nodes in the network have DCC or MS-DCC terminations provisioned to
Unlocked-enabled STM-N ports.
Step 5 Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for each node in the SNCP.
Step 6 As needed, complete the “DLP-D81 Provision a Proxy Tunnel” task on page 17-73.
Step 7 As needed, complete the “DLP-D90 Provision a Firewall Tunnel” task on page 17-83.
Step 8 Following the documentation provided by the third-party vendor, provision the optical loop leading from
the ONS 15454 SDH connection at one end to the ONS 15454 connection at the other end. In other
words, you will create an open-ended SNCP using procedures for the third-party equipment.
Step 9 Complete the “NTP-D344 Open-Ended SNCP Acceptance Test” procedure on page 5-36.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
