1. Overview: The steps in this procedure enable you to change an OC-12 Low
Speed optical link from 1+1 protection mode to 0x1 protection mode without
causing a service impairment. Tasks are performed on two separate NEs (for
example; Node A, an FT-2000, and Node B). Node B can be another
FT-2000, DDM-2000, or other vendor equipment. The process is as follows:
1. At Node A, switch traffic from Protection quad to Service quad.
2. At Node B, switch traffic from Protection quad to Service quad.
3. At Node B, change Protection mode from 1+1to0x1.
4. At Node A, change Protection mode from 1+1to0x1.
NOTE:
The FT-2000 OC-12 “Service and Protection” quad pairs are (1b and 3b)
or (5b and 7b).The “Service quad” has a 1b or 5b quad address. The
“Protection quad” has a 3b or 7b quad address.
