Figure 14-2 Three-Node, Four-Fiber MS-SPRing Before a Fourth Node is Added

Step 3

According to local site practice, complete the “NTP-D108 Back Up the Database” procedure on

page 15-5 for all the nodes in the ring.

Step 4 Verify the card installation on the new node using the “NTP-D24 Verify Card Installation” procedure

on page 4-2. Verify that the STM-N cards that will be the MS-SPRing trunk cards match the MS-SPRing

optical rate. For example, if the MS-SPRing is STM-16, the new node must have STM-16 cards installed.

If the STM-N cards are not installed or the optical rates do not match the MS-SPRing, complete the

“NTP-D16 Install STM-N Cards and Connectors” procedure on page 2-7.

Step 5 Verify that fiber is available to connect the new node to the existing nodes. Refer to the diagram drawn

in Step 2.

Step 6 Complete the “NTP-D35 Verify Node Turn-Up” procedure on page 5-2. To have CTC visibility to the

new node after it is added, you must be an authorized user on the node and you must have IP connectivity

to the node.

Step 7 Check to see if the new node IP address is on the same subnet as other nodes in the network. If two or

more PCs are directly connected to different nodes that belong to the same subnet and Craft Access Only

is not checked under Gateway Settings, add static routes on the gateway ONS 15454 SDH nodes, using

the following settings:

• Destination IP address: Local-PC-IP-address

• Net Mask: 255.255.255.255

• Next Hop: IP-address-of-the-Cisco-ONS-15454-SDH

• Cost: 1
