Configuring RPR-IEEE End-to-End
You need to use both CTC and Cisco IOS to configure RPR-IEEE for the ML-Series card. CTC is the
graphical user interface (GUI) that serves as the enhanced craft tool for specific ONS node operations,
including the provisioning of the point-to-point SONET/SDH circuits required for RPR-IEEE. Cisco
IOS is used to configure RPR-IEEE on the ML-Series card and its interfaces.
Successfully creating an RPR-IEEE requires these procedures:
•
Provisioning Card Mode, page 2-4 (CTC)
•
Connecting the ML-Series Cards with Point-to-Point STS/STM Circuits, page 26-30 (CTC or TL1)
•
Creating the RPR-IEEE Interface and Bridge Group, page 26-32 (Cisco IOS)
•
Verifying RPR-IEEE End-to-End Ethernet Connectivity, page 26-37 (Cisco IOS)
Caution
High-level data link control (HDLC) framing is not supported.
Note
You can use TL-1 to provision the required SONET/SDH point-to-point circuits instead of CTC.
Provisioning Card Mode
The first task in creating an end-to-end RPR-IEEE is to set the CTC card mode to 802.17. For more
information on this task, see the “Provisioning Card Mode” section on page 2-4.
Connecting the ML-Series Cards with Point-to-Point STS/STM Circuits
You connect the ML-Series cards in an RPR-IEEE through point-to-point STS/STM circuits. These
circuits use the ONS 15454 SONET/SDH network and are provisioned using CTC in the same general
manner as provisioning ONS 15454 SONET/SDH optical circuits. After putting the ML-Series card in
