Administration and Provisioning
Issue 8.0 July 2002

Before Release 4, when a SYSMEM unrecognizable code or
SYSMEM/SYSCTL code mismatch condition was active after replacing a
SYSMEM circuit pack, all LNCTL and OHCTL circuit pack functions were stopped
(no protection switching and condition reporting), and the FAULT LEDs on these
circuit packs were lighted. In Release 4 and later releases, the LNTCL and
OHCTL circuit pack functions are not stopped when a SYSMEM unrecognizable
code or SYSMEM/SYSCTL code mismatch condition is active after replacing a
SYSMEM circuit pack.
The FT-2000 OC-48 Lightwave System supports the following CIT memory
administration functions:
â– Install-Software: This copies the executable code and original values from
floppy disks in the CIT to the SYSMEM circuit pack. Refer to the
Install-Software function in the "Operation" Tab of this manual.
â– Initialize-System: The CONFIGURATION-Initialize-System input
replaces most current values in the SYSMEM circuit pack with the original
values in the SYSMEM circuit pack and initiates the reset function (see
Reset). All cross-connections, loopbacks, and switch states are retained.
However, 1+1 protection switch states are not retained. Automatically
provisioned parameters are unaffected by this command. The current
values that are not replaced with their original values are those set with the
following inputs:
— CONFIGURATION-Set-Date
— SECURITY-Set-Password
— SECURITY-Set-Login
— SECURITY-Set-Security
— SECURITY-Set-Far End Communications
— SECURITY-Set-Network Element
â– Reset: The FAULT-Reset input copies the current values from the
SYSCTL circuit pack to the SYSMEM circuit pack and the executable code
from the SYSMEM circuit pack to the SYSCTL circuit pack. The executable
code in the SYSCTL circuit pack is then restarted and the current values in
the SYSMEM circuit pack are reformatted to work with the new executable
code.
â– Update: The CONFIGURATION-Update input updates the state of all the
automatically provisioned parameters based on what circuit packs are
present and the condition of the incoming signals. Refer to "Provisionable
Parameters and Original Values" in this section for more information about
automatically provisioned parameters.
