2.7.340 RING-MISMATCH
Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)
SONET Logical Object: OCN
A Procedural Error Mismatch Ring alarm occurs when the ring name of the ONS 15454 node that is
reporting the alarm does not match the ring name of another node in the BLSR. Nodes connected in a
BLSR must have identical ring names to function. This alarm can occur during BLSR provisioning.
RING-MISMATCH is somewhat similar to RING-ID-MIS, but it applies to BLSR protection discovery
instead of DWDM node discovery.
Note For more information about DWDM cards, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Reference Manual.
Clear the RING-MISMATCH Alarm
Step 1 In node view, click the Provisioning > BLSR tabs.
Step 2 Note the name in the Ring Name field.
Step 3 Log into the next ONS 15454 node in the BLSR.
Step 4 Complete the “Identify a BLSR Ring Name or Node ID Number” procedure on page 2-261.
Step 5 If the ring name matches the ring name in the reporting node, repeat Step 4 for the next ONS 15454 in
the BLSR.
Step 6 Complete the “Change a BLSR Ring Name” procedure on page 2-261.
Step 7 Verify that the ring map is correct.
Step 8 If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport
for more information or call Cisco TAC 1 800 553-2447 in order to report a Service-Affecting (SA)
problem.
