Configuration Guidelines
This section describes the Cyan Data Communications Network (DCN) architecture. It provides use cases
for deploying Cyan Z-Series nodes with the Planet Operate in an IP DCN network. The use cases provide
recommendations for configuring external routers.

Management Overview
The Cyan DCN architecture is based on the ITU-T G.7712 standard supporting IP-based communication
with OSPF routing. All Cyan nodes require a unique IP address.
Note: Each Cyan node in the network must have a unique IP address provisioned. When
commissioning Cyan equipment the following IP addresses are not supported:
• 192.168.0.1 – 192.168.0.255 Subnet 255.255.255.0
• 192.168.1.0 – 192.168.1.255 Subnet 255.255.255.0
• 192.168.2.0 – 192.168.2.255 Subnet 255.255.255.0
• 192.168.3.0 – 192.168.3.255 Subnet 255.255.255.0
• 172.16.0.1 – 172.16.0.255 Subnet 255.255.255.0
169.254.0.1 – 169.254.254.254 Subnet 255.255.255.0
Cyan Z-Series and Cyan L-AMP nodes can be placed in various configurations based on how they are
physically connected and how they are logically divided into IP sub-networks. Physical connectivity falls
into one of the following scenarios:
• All Cyan nodes are connected directly using the same physical LAN segment.
• Cyan nodes are separated into different physical LAN segments.
