NTP-A305 Provision CE-100T-8 POS Ports
Note Reprovisioning an Ethernet port on the CE-100T-8 card does not reset the Ethernet statistics for
that port.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
NTP-A305 Provision CE-100T-8 POS Ports
Note You can provision SONET CCAT or VCAT circuits for the CE-100T-8 before or after provisioning the
card’s Ethernet ports and/or POS ports. Refer to the “NTP-A257 Create an Automatically Routed OC-N
Circuit” procedure on page 6-38 or the “NTP-A264 Create an Automatically Routed VCAT Circuit”
procedure on page 6-86, as needed.
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-A60 Log into CTC” task on page 17-66 at the node where you will provision the
ports.
Step 2 In the node view, double-click the CE-100T-8 card graphic to open the card.
Step 3 Click the Provisioning > POS Ports tabs.
Step 4 For each CE-100T-8 port, provision the following parameters:
• Port Name—If you want to label the port, enter the port name.
• Admin State—Choose IS to put the port in service.
• Framing Type— Choose GPF-F POS framing (the default) or HDLC POS framing. The framing
type needs to match the framing type of the POS device at the end of the SONET circuit.
• Encap CRC—With GFP-F framing, the user can configure a 32-bit CRC (the default) or none (no
CRC). HDLC framing provides a set 32-bit CRC. The CRC should be set to match the CRC of the
POS device on the end of the SONET circuit.
Note For more details on the interoperabilty of ONS Ethernet cards, including information on
encapsulation, framing and CRC, refer to the “POS on ONS Ethernet Cards” chapter of the
Ethernet Card Software Feature and Configuration Guide for the Cisco ONS 15454, Cisco ONS
15454 SDH, and Cisco ONS 15327.
Note The CE-100T-8 uses LEX encapsulation, which is the primary POS encapsulation used in ONS
Ethernet cards.
Purpose This procedure provisions CE-100T-8 POS ports to carry traffic.
