NTP-A178 Provision a Traditional BLSR Dual-Ring Interconnect
b. Verify that no unexplained alarms appear. If unexplained alarms appear, resolve them before
continuing. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide if necessary.
c. Complete the “DLP-A516 Export CTC Data” task on page 22-6 to export the alarm information.
Step 24 Click the Conditions tab.
a. Verify that no unexplained conditions appear. If unexplained conditions appear, resolve them before
continuing. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide if necessary.
b. Complete the “DLP-A516 Export CTC Data” task on page 22-6 to export the conditions
information.
Step 25 If a node fails any test, repeat the test while verifying correct setup and configuration. If the test fails
again, refer to the next level of support.
After all tests are successfully completed and no alarms exist in the network, the network is ready for
service application. Continue with Chapter 6, “Create Circuits and VT Tunnels.”
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
NTP-A178 Provision a Traditional BLSR Dual-Ring Interconnect
Note To route circuits on the DRI, you must check the Dual Ring Interconnect check box during circuit
creation.
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-A60 Log into CTC” task on page 17-66. If you are already logged in, continue with
Step 2.
Step 2 Complete the following steps if you have not provisioned the BLSRs that you will interconnect in a
BLSR DRI. If the BLSRs are created, go to Step 3.
a. Complete the “NTP-A40 Provision BLSR Nodes” procedure on page 5-10 to provision the BLSRs.
b. Complete the “NTP-A126 Create a BLSR” procedure on page 5-12 to create the BLSRs.
c. Complete the “NTP-A175 Two-Fiber BLSR Acceptance Test” procedure on page 5-13 to test
two-fiber BLSRs.
d. Complete the “NTP-A176 Four-Fiber BLSR Acceptance Test” procedure on page 5-15 to test
four-fiber BLSRs.
Purpose This procedure provisions BLSRs in a traditional dual-ring interconnect
(DRI) topology. DRIs interconnect two or more BLSRs to provide an
additional level of protection. Two-fiber and four-fiber BLSRs can be
mixed in a traditional BLSR DRI network.
