Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide, R5.0
March 2005
Chapter 17 DLPs A1 to A99
DLP-A53 Set Up a Solaris Workstation for a Craft Connection to an ONS 15454
If the interface is not plumbed, a message similar to the following appears:
ifconfig: status: SIOCGLIFFLAGS: hme1: no such interface.
If a message similar to this one appears, go to Step 3.
Step 3 Plumb the interface by typing:
# ifconfig device plumb
For example:
# ifconfig hme1 plumb
Step 4 Configure the IP address on the interface by typing:
# ifconfig interface ip-address netmask netmask up
For example:
# ifconfig hme0 192.1.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
Note Enter an IP address that is identical to the ONS 15454 IP address except for the last octet. The
last octet must be 1 or 3 through 254.
Step 5 In the Subnet Mask field, type 255.255.255.0. Skip this step if you checked Craft Access Only on the
Provisioning > Network > General > Gateway Settings tab.
Step 6 Test the connection:
a. Start Netscape Navigator.
b. Enter the ONS 15454 IP address in the web address (URL) field. If the connection is established, a
Java Console window, CTC caching messages, and the Cisco Transport Controller Login dialog box
appear. If this occurs, go to Step 2 of the “DLP-A60 Log into CTC” task on page 17-66 to complete
the login. If the Login dialog box does not appear, complete Steps c and d.
c. At the prompt, type:
ping ONS-15454-IP-address
For example, to connect to an ONS 15454 with a default IP address of 192.1.0.2, type:
ping 192.1.0.2
If your workstation is connected to the ONS 15454, the following message appears:
IP-address is alive
Note Skip this step if you checked the Craft Access Only check box at Provisioning > Network >
General > Gateway Settings.
d. If CTC is not responding, a “Request timed out” (Windows) or a “no answer from x.x.x.x” (UNIX)
message appears. Verify the IP and subnet mask information. Check that the cables connecting the
workstation to the ONS 15454 are securely attached. Check the link status by typing:
# ndd -set /dev/device instance 0
# ndd -get /dev/device link_status
For example:
# ndd -set /dev/hme instance 0
