NTP-A217 Provision an Integrated Path Protection Dual-Ring
Interconnect
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-A60 Log into CTC” task on page 17-66 at a node in the path protection DRI
network. If you are already logged in, continue with Step 2.
Step 2 Complete the following steps if you have not provisioned the path protection configurations that you will
interconnect in a path protection DRI. If the path protection configurations are created, continue with
Step 3.
a. Complete the “NTP-A44 Provision Path Protection Nodes” procedure on page 5-20 to provision the
path protection configurations.
b. Complete the “NTP-A177 Path Protection Acceptance Test” procedure on page 5-22 to test the path
protection configurations.
Note All path protection configurations that will be interconnected must have the same OC-N rate.
Step 3 Verify that the path protection DRI interconnect nodes have OC-N cards installed and have fiber
connections to the other interconnect node:
• The OC-N cards that will connect the path protection configurations must be installed at the
interconnect nodes. The OC-N cards in the path protection nodes and the interconnect nodes must
be the same type.
• The interconnect nodes must have the correct fiber connections. An example is shown in Figure 5-8.
This example shows a path protection DRI with two rings.
Purpose This procedure provisions path protection configurations in an integrated
DRI topology. In the integrated DRI, the path protection OC-N trunk cards
for both path protection configurations are installed on the same shelf.
