DLP-D107 Preprovision an SFP or XFP Device
Note Before you install SFPs on the MRC-12 card, refer to the MRC-12 information in the Cisco ONS 15454
SDH Reference Manual for bandwidth restrictions based on the port where you install the SFP and the
cross-connect card being used.
Note If you preprovision a multirate SFP, you must next select the line rate using the “DLP-D132 Provision
a Multirate PPM on the MRC-12 Card” task on page 18-27.
Step 1 In node view, click the Alarms tab:
a. Verify that the alarm filter is not turned on. See the “DLP-D227 Disable Alarm Filtering” task on
page 19-25 as necessary.
b. Verify that no unexplained conditions appear on the network. If unexplained conditions appear,
resolve them before continuing. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide.
c. Complete the “DLP-D147 Export CTC Data” task on page 18-38 to export alarm and condition
information.
Step 2 In node view, double-click the card where you want to provision PPM settings.
Step 3 Click the Provisioning > Pluggable Port Modules tabs.
Step 4 In the Pluggable Port Modules area, click Create. The Create PPM dialog box appears.
Step 5 In the Create PPM dialog box, complete the following:
• PPM—Choose the slot number where you want to preprovision the SFP/XFP from the drop-down
list.
• PPM Type—Choose the number of ports supported by your SFP/XFP from the drop-down list. If
only one port is supported, PPM (1 port) is the only option.
Purpose This procedure preprovisions Small Form-factor Pluggables (SFPs/XFPs)
on the MRC-12 and STM64-XFP cards. The SFPs/XFPs are referred to as
pluggable port modules (PPMs) in CTC. Cisco-approved STM-1, STM-4,
STM-16, STM-64, and multirate PPMs are compatible with the
ONS 15454 SDH. See Table 20-9 on page 20-29 for a list.
