DLP- D40 Create a Provisionable Patchcord
Step 1 In node view, click the Provisioning > Comm Channels > PPC tabs. If you are in network view, click
the Provisioning > Provisionable Patchcords tabs.
Step 2 Click Create. The Provisionable Patchcord dialog box appears.
Step 3 In the Origination Node area, complete the following:
a. If you are in node view, the Origination Node defaults to the current node. If you are in network
view, click the desired origination node from the drop-down list.
b. Type a patchcord identifier (0 through 32767) in the TX/RX ID field.
c. Click the desired origination slot/port from the list of available slots/ports.
Step 4 In the Termination Node area, complete the following:
a. Click the desired termination node from the drop-down list. If the remote node has not previously
been discovered by CTC but is accessible by CTC, type the name of the remote node.
b. Type a patchcord identifier (0 through 32767) in the TX/RX ID field. The origination and
termination IDs must be different if the patchcord is set up between two cards on the same node.
c. Click the desired termination slot/port from the list of available slots/ports. The origination port and
the termination port must be different.
Step 5 If you need to provision Tx and Rx separately for multiplexer/demultiplexer cards, check the
Separate Tx/Rx check box. If not, continue with Step 6. The origination and termination TX ports are
already provisioned. Complete the following to provision the RX ports:
a. In the Origination Node area, type a patchcord identifier (0 through 32767) in the RX ID field. The
origination Tx and Rx and termination Tx and Rx IDs must be different.
b. Click the desired origination slot/port from the list of available slots/ports.
c. In the Termination Node area, type a patchcord identifier (0 through 32767) in the RX ID field. The
origination Tx and Rx and termination Tx and Rx IDs must be different.
d. Click the desired termination slot/port from the list of available slots/ports.
Step 6 Click OK.
Step 7 If you provisioned a patchcord on a port in a 1+1 protection group, a dialog box appears to ask if you
would like to provision the peer patchcord. Click Yes. Repeat Steps 3 through 6 for the peer patchcord.
Step 8 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
