• The terminal network has no critical or major alarms.
• The node that you will add has no critical or major alarms.
• The node has compatible software version with that of the terminal nodes.
• The node has four unused optical ports matching the speed of the 1+1 protection and no
communication channel has been provisioned on these four ports.
• Fiber is available to connect the added node to the terminal nodes.
If all of these conditions are met and you wish to continue with the procedure, click Next.
Note If you are attempting to add an unreachable node, you must first log in to the unreachable node
using a separate CTC session and configure that node. Delete any existing protection groups as
described in “DLP-A155 Delete a Protection Group” task on page 18-23. Delete any existing
DCC terminations as described in the “DLP-A156 Delete a Section DCC Termination” task on
page 18-23 and the “DLP-A359 Delete a Line DCC Termination” task on page 20-45.
Step 6 Choose the name of the new node from the drop-down list. If the node you want to add is not in the
drop-down list, type in the name. If you type in the name, make sure it is identical to the actual node name.
The node name is case sensitive.
Step 7 Click Next. The Select Protection Group Ports page (Figure 13-1) appears.
