Shelf and FMEC Hardware  
This chapter provides a description of Cisco ONS 15454 SDH shelf and backplane hardware. Card and  
cable descriptions are provided in Chapter 2, “Common Control Cards,” Chapter 3, “Electrical Cards,”  
Chapter 4, “Optical Cards,” and Chapter 14, “Ethernet Operation.” To install equipment, refer to the  
Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
1.13 Software and Hardware Compatibility, page 1-18  
Note  
The Cisco ONS 15454 SDH assembly is intended for use with telecommunications equipment only.  
Caution  
Unused card slots should be filled with a blank faceplate (Cisco P/N 15454E-BLANK). The blank  
faceplate ensures proper airflow when operating the ONS 15454 SDH without the front door attached,  
although Cisco recommends that the front door remain attached.  
1.1 Overview  
When installed in an equipment rack, the ONS 15454 SDH assembly is typically connected to a fuse and  
alarm panel to provide centralized alarm connection points and distributed power for the  
ONS 15454 SDH. Fuse and alarm panels are third-party equipment and are not described in this

1.1 Overview  
documentation. If you are unsure about the requirements or specifications for a fuse and alarm panel,  
consult the user documentation for the related equipment. The front door of the ONS 15454 SDH allows  
access to the shelf assembly, fan-tray assembly, and cable-management area. The FMEC cover at the top  
of the shelf allows access to power connectors, external alarms and controls, timing input and output,  
and craft interface terminals.  
You can mount the ONS 15454 SDH in an ETSI rack. The shelf assembly weighs approximately 26 kg  
(57 pounds) with no cards installed. The shelf assembly includes a front door and a Front Mount  
Electrical Connection (FMEC) cover for added security, a fan tray module for cooling, and extensive  
cable-management space.  
All ONS 15454 SDH optical cards have SC connectors on the card faceplate, except the  
STM-1SH 1310-8 card, which has LC connectors. Fiber-optic cables are routed into the front of the  
optical and Ethernet cards. Electrical cards (E-1, E-3, DS3i, STM-1E) require FMEC cards to provide  
the cable connection points for the shelf assembly.  
The ONS 15454 SDH is powered using –48VDC power. Negative, return, and ground power terminals  
are connected via the MIC-A/P and the MIC-C/T/P cards.  
Note  
In this chapter, the terms “ONS 15454 SDH” and “shelf assembly” are used interchangeably. In the  
installation context, these terms have the same meaning. Otherwise, shelf assembly refers to the physical  
steel enclosure that holds cards and connects power, and ONS 15454 SDH refers to the entire system,  
both hardware and software.  
Install the ONS 15454 SDH in compliance with your local and national electrical codes:  
United States: National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 70; United States National Electrical  
Code  
Canada: Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, CSA C22.1  
Other countries: If local and national electrical codes, are not available, refer to IEC 364, Part 1  
through Part 7.

The Critical, Major, and Minor alarm LEDs visible through the front door indicate whether a critical,  
major, or minor alarm is present anywhere on the ONS 15454 SDH. These LEDs must be visible so  
technicians can quickly determine if any alarms are present. You can use the LCD to further isolate  
alarms.  
The ONS 15454 SDH features a locked door to the front compartment. A pinned hex key that unlocks  
the front door ships with the ONS 15454 SDH. A button on the right side of the shelf assembly releases  
the door. The front door provides access to the shelf assembly, cable-management tray, fan-tray  
assembly, and LCD screen (Figure 1-2).

1.4 E1-75/120 Conversion Panel  
You need an E1-75/120 conversion panel if you want to convert the balanced 120-ohm interfaces of the  
E1-42 card and the corresponding FMECs to unbalanced 75-ohm interfaces.  
The E1-75/120 contains eighty-four 1.0/2.3 miniature coax connectors (42 for transmit, 42 for receive)  
to the customer side and two Molex 96-pin LFH connectors to the E1-42 FMEC 120-ohm side. Each of  
the Molex 96-pin LFH connectors connects 21 inputs and 21 outputs. The E1-75/120 conversion panel  
is intended to be used in digital distribution frames (DDFs), ETSI racks, and ANSI racks.  
You can install the E1-75/120 conversion panel in the rack of your ONS 15454 SDH or in a nearby rack.  
If you install the E1-75/120 conversion panel in a place where a longer cable is required, make sure that  
the total cable loss of the balanced 120-ohm cable and the unbalanced 75-ohm cable does not exceed the  
maximum allowed value. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Reference Manual for details. To ensure  
that the E1-75/120 conversion panel is secure, use one or two M6 mounting screws for each side of the  
shelf assembly. Figure 1-6 on page 1-10 shows the rack-mounting for the E1-75/120 conversion panel.  
Note  
If required, the mounting brackets of the E1-75/120 conversion panel can be uninstalled, rotated  
90 degrees, and reinstalled to enable 19-inch (482.6 mm) rack mounting.

1.7 Cable Routing and Management  
All E-1 interfaces that are listed in Table 1-2 on page 1-8 with DB-37 or with Molex 96-pin LFH  
connectors must be connected using a 120-ohm twisted-pair balanced cable. For the interfaces that use  
Molex 96-pin LFH connectors Cisco offers ready-made cables.  
1.7 Cable Routing and Management  
The ONS 15454 SDH cable management facilities include the following:  
A cable-routing channel (behind the fold-down door) that runs the width of the shelf assembly,  
Figure 1-7  
Plastic horseshoe-shaped fiber guides at each side opening of the cable-routing channel that ensure  
the proper bend radius is maintained in the fibers, Figure 1-8 on page 1-12  
Note  
You can remove the fiber guide if necessary to create a larger opening (if you need to route  
CAT-5 Ethernet cables out the side, for example). To remove the fiber guide, take out the  
three screws that anchor it to the side of the shelf assembly.  
A fold-down door that provides access to the cable-management tray  
Reversible jumper routing fins that enable you to route cables out either side by positioning the fins  
as desired  
Note  
To remove the jumper slack storage reels, take out the screw in the center of each reel.  
Optional fiber management tray (recommended for DWDM nodes)  
Figure 1-7 shows the cable management facilities that you can access through the fold-down front door,  
including the cable-routing channel and the jumper routing fins.

The jumper routing fins are designed to route fiber jumpers out of both sides of the shelf. Slots 1 to 6  
exit to the left, and Slots 12 to 17 exit to the right. Figure 1-8 shows fibers routed from cards in the left  
slots, down through the fins, then exiting out the fiber channel to the left. The maximum capacity of the  
fiber routing channel depends on the size of the fiber jumpers.  
Figure 1-8

Plan your fiber size according to the number of cards/ports installed in each side of the shelf. For  
example, if your port combination requires 36 fibers, 3 mm (0.11 inch) fiber is adequate. If your port  
combination requires 68 fibers, you must use 2 mm (0.07 inch) or smaller fibers.

1.9 Fan-Tray Assembly  
The fan-tray assembly is located at the bottom of the ONS 15454 SDH. After you install the fan-tray  
assembly, you only need to open the drawer if a fan fails, or if you need to replace or clean the fan-tray  
air filter. Do not operate an ONS 15454 SDH without a fan-tray air filter. Refer to the “Maintain the  
Node” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide for information about cleaning and  
maintaining the fan-tray air filter.  
The fan-tray assembly is a removable drawer that holds fans and fan-control circuitry for the  
ONS 15454 SDH. Cisco recommends removing the front door of the chassis when removing or installing  
the fan-tray assembly. The front of the fan-tray assembly has an LCD screen that provides slot and  
port-level information for all ONS 15454 SDH card slots, including the number of critical, major, and  
minor alarms. For STM-N cards, you can use the LCD to determine if a port is in working or protect  
mode and is active or standby. It also displays whether the software load is SONET or SDH and the  
software version number.  
The temperature measured by the TCC2/TCC2P sensors is displayed on the LCD screen.

1.12.2 Card Replacement  
1.12.2 Card Replacement  
To replace an ONS 15454 SDH card with another card of the same type, you do not need to make any  
changes to the database; remove the old card and replace it with a new card. To replace a card with a card  
of a different type, physically remove the card and replace it with the new card, then delete the original  
card from CTC. For specifics, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
Caution  
Removing any active card from the ONS 15454 SDH can result in traffic interruption. Use caution when  
replacing cards and verify that only inactive or standby cards are being replaced. If the active card needs  
to be replaced, switch it to standby prior to removing the card from the node. For traffic switching  
procedures, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
Note  
Note  
An improper removal (IMPROPRMVL) alarm is raised whenever a card pull (reseat) is performed,  
unless the card is deleted in CTC first. The alarm clears after the card replacement is complete.  
In a subnetwork connection protection (SNCP), pulling the active XC10G without a lockout causes  
SNCP circuits to switch.

Chapter 2 Common Control Cards  
2.2.1 TCC2 Card Functionality  
2.2.1 TCC2 Card Functionality  
The TCC2 card supports multichannel, high-level data link control (HDLC) processing for the  
DCC/GCC. Up to 84 DCCs can be routed over the TCC2 card and up to 84 section DCCs can be  
terminated at the TCC2 card (subject to the available optical digital communication channels). The  
TCC2 card selects and processes 84 DCCs to facilitate remote system management interfaces.  
The TCC2 card also originates and terminates a cell bus carried over the module. The cell bus supports  
links between any two cards in the node, which is essential for peer-to-peer communication. Peer-to-peer  
communication accelerates protection switching for redundant cards.  
The node database, IP address, and system software are stored in TCC2 card nonvolatile memory, which  
allows quick recovery in the event of a power or card failure.  
The TCC2 card performs all system-timing functions for each ONS 15454 SDH. It monitors the  
recovered clocks from each traffic card and two BITS ports for frequency accuracy. The TCC2 card  
selects a recovered clock, a BITS, or an internal Stratum 3 reference as the system-timing reference. You  
can provision any of the clock inputs as primary or secondary timing sources. A slow-reference tracking  
loop allows the TCC2 card to synchronize with the recovered clock, which provides holdover if the  
reference is lost.  
The TCC2 card monitors both supply voltage inputs on the shelf. An alarm is generated if one of the  
supply voltage inputs has a voltage outside of the specified range.  
Install TCC2 cards in Slots 7 and 11 for redundancy. If the active TCC2 card fails, traffic switches to the  
protect TCC2 card. All TCC2 card protection switches conform to protection switching standards when  
the bit error rate (BER) counts are not in excess of 1 * 10 exp – 3 and completion time is less than 50 ms.  
The TCC2 card has two built-in interface ports for accessing the system: an RJ-45 10BaseT LAN  
interface and an EIA/TIA-232 interface for local craft access. It also has a 10BaseT LAN port for user  
interfaces via the backplane to the port accessible on the MIC-C/T/P Front Mount Electrical Connection  
(FMEC).  
Cisco does not support operation of the ONS 15454 SDH with only one TCC2 card. For full  
functionality and to safeguard your system, always operate each ONS 15454 SDH with two TCC2 cards.  
Note  
Note  
CTC software does not monitor for the absence of FMECs unless the TCC2 card(s) have reached the  
Active/Standby state. During transitional states such as power-up or TCC2 card reset, CTC ignores the  
FMEC inventory displayed in node view.  
When a second TCC2 card is inserted into a node, it synchronizes its software, its backup software, and  
its database with the active TCC2 card. If the software version of the new TCC2 card does not match the  
version on the active TCC2 card, the newly inserted TCC2 card copies from the active TCC2 card, taking  
about 15 to 20 minutes to complete. If the backup software version on the new TCC2 card does not match  
the version on the active TCC2 card, the newly inserted TCC2 card copies the backup software from the  
active TCC2 card again, taking about 15 to 20 minutes. Copying the database from the active TCC2 card  
takes about 3 minutes. Depending on the software version and backup version the new TCC2 card started  
with, the entire process can take between 3 and 40 minutes.  
2.2.2 TCC2 Card-Level Indicators

Definition  
Red FAIL LED  
The FAIL LED flashes during the boot and write process. Replace the card  
if the FAIL LED persists.  
ACT/STBY LED  
Green (Active)  
The ACT/STBY (Active/Standby) LED indicates the TCC2 card is active  
(green) or in standby (amber) mode. The ACT/STBY LED also provides the  
timing reference and shelf control. When the TCC2 card is writing to the  
active or standby TCC2 card, its active or standby LED blinks. To avoid  
memory corruption, do not remove the TCC2 card when the active or standby  
LED is blinking.  
Amber (Standby)  
2.2.3 Network-Level Indicators

Indicates Critical alarms in the network at the local terminal.  
Indicates Major alarms in the network at the local terminal.  
Indicates Minor alarms in the network at the local terminal.  
Provides first-level alarm isolation. The remote (REM) LED turns red when  
an alarm is present in one or several of the remote terminals.  
Green SYNC LED  
Green ACO LED  
Indicates that node timing is synchronized to an external reference.  
After pressing the alarm cutoff (ACO) button, the green ACO LED  
illuminates. The ACO button opens the audible closure on the backplane.  
ACO state is stopped if a new alarm occurs. After the originating alarm is  
cleared, the ACO LED and audible alarm control are reset.  
2.3 TCC2P Card  
The TCC2P card, which requires Software R4.0 or later, is an enhanced version of the TCC2 card. The  
primary enhancements are Ethernet security features.  
The TCC2P card performs system initialization, provisioning, alarm reporting, maintenance,  
diagnostics, IP address detection/resolution, SONET SOH DCC/GCC termination, and system fault  
detection for the ONS 15454. The TCC2P also ensures that the system maintains Stratum 3  
(Telcordia GR-253-CORE) timing requirements. It monitors the supply voltage of the system.  
Note  
The LAN interface of the TCC2P card meets the standard Ethernet specifications by supporting a cable  
length of 328 ft (100 m) at temperatures from 32 to 149 degrees Fahrenheit (0 to 65 degrees Celsius).  
The interfaces can operate with a cable length of 32.8 ft (10 m) maximum at temperatures from –40 to  
32 degrees Fahrenheit (–40 to 0 degrees Celsius).

2.3.1 TCC2P Functionality  
The TCC2P card supports multichannel, HDLC processing for the DCC. Up to 84 DCCs can be routed  
over the TCC2P card and up to 84 section DCCs can be terminated at the TCC2P card (subject to the  
available optical digital communication channels). The TCC2P selects and processes 84 DCCs to  
facilitate remote system management interfaces.  
The TCC2P also originates and terminates a cell bus carried over the module. The cell bus supports links  
between any two cards in the node, which is essential for peer-to-peer communication. Peer-to-peer  
communication accelerates protection switching for redundant cards.

Chapter 2 Common Control Cards  
2.3.2 TCC2P Card-Level Indicators  
The node database, IP address, and system software are stored in TCC2P nonvolatile memory, which  
allows quick recovery in the event of a power or card failure.  
The TCC2P card performs all system-timing functions for each ONS 15454. It monitors the recovered  
clocks from each traffic card and two BITS ports for frequency accuracy. The TCC2P card selects a  
recovered clock, a BITS, or an internal Stratum 3 reference as the system-timing reference. You can  
provision any of the clock inputs as primary or secondary timing sources. A slow-reference tracking loop  
allows the TCC2P to synchronize with the recovered clock, which provides holdover if the reference is  
lost.  
The TCC2P monitors both supply voltage inputs on the shelf. An alarm is generated if one of the supply  
voltage inputs has a voltage out of the specified range.  
Install TCC2P cards in Slots 7 and 11 for redundancy. If the active TCC2P fails, traffic switches to the  
protect TCC2P. All TCC2P protection switches conform to protection switching standards when the  
BER counts are not in excess of 1 * 10 exp – 3 and completion time is less than 50 ms.  
The TCC2P card has two built-in RJ-45 Ethernet interface ports for accessing the system: one on the  
front faceplate for on-site craft access and a second on the backplane for user interfaces. The rear  
Ethernet interface is for permanent LAN access and all remote access via TCP/IP as well as for  
Operations Support System (OSS) access. The front and rear Ethernet interfaces have different IP  
addresses that are in different subnets.  
Two EIA/TIA-232 serial ports, one on the faceplate and a second on the backplane, allow for craft  
interface in TL1 mode.  
Cisco does not support operation of the ONS 15454 SDH with only one TCC2P card. For full  
functionality and to safeguard your system, always operate with two TCC2P cards.  
Note  
When a second TCC2P card is inserted into a node, it synchronizes its software, its backup software, and  
its database with the active TCC2P. If the software version of the new TCC2P does not match the version  
on the active TCC2P, the newly inserted TCC2P copies from the active TCC2P, taking about 15 to 20  
minutes to complete. If the backup software version on the new TCC2P does not match the version on  
the active TCC2P, the newly inserted TCC2P copies the backup software from the active TCC2P again,  
taking about 15 to 20 minutes. Copying the database from the active TCC2P takes about 3 minutes.  
Depending on the software version and backup version the new TCC2P started with, the entire process  
can take between 3 and 40 minutes.  
2.3.2 TCC2P Card-Level Indicators  
The TCC2P faceplate has eight LEDs. Table 2-9 describes the two card-level LEDs on the TCC2P  
faceplate.  
Table 2-9

This LED is on during reset. The FAIL LED flashes during the boot and  
write process. Replace the card if the FAIL LED persists.  
ACT/STBY LED  
Green (Active)  
Indicates the TCC2P is active (green) or in standby (amber) mode. The  
ACT/STBY LED also provides the timing reference and shelf control. When  
the active TCC2P is writing to its database or to the standby TCC2P  
database, the card LEDs blink. To avoid memory corruption, do not remove  
the TCC2P when the active or standby LED is blinking.

2.4 XC10G Card  
The XC10G card cross connects STM-1, STM-4, STM-16, and STM-64 signal rates. The XC10G card  
provides a maximum of 384 x 384 VC-4 nonblocking cross connections. Any STM-1 on any port can be  
connected to any other port, meaning that the STM cross-connections are nonblocking.  
The lowest level cross-connect with the XC10G card is STM-1. Lower level signals, such as E-1, DS-3,  
or E-3, can be dropped, which can leave part of the bandwidth unused.  
Note  
The XC10G card has been designed to support both –48 VDC and –60 VDC input requirements.

Green RING LED  
The green RING LED on the express orderwire (EOW) side is flashing when

2.7.2 External Alarms and Controls  
The AIC-I card provides input/output alarm contact closures. You can define up to 16 external alarm  
inputs and four external alarm inputs/outputs (user configurable). The physical connections are made  
using the MIC-A/P. The alarms are defined using CTC. For instructions, refer to the “Manage Alarms”  
chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
LEDs on the front panel of the AIC-I indicate the status of the alarm contacts: one LED representing all  
the inputs and one LED representing all the outputs. External alarms (input contacts) are typically used  
for external sensors such as open doors, temperature sensors, flood sensors, and other environmental  
conditions. External controls (output contacts) are typically used to drive visual or audible devices such  
as bells and lights, but they can control other devices such as generators, heaters, and fans.  
You can program each of the sixteen input alarm contacts separately. Choices include:  
Alarm on Closure or Alarm on Open  
Alarm severity of any level (Critical, Major, Minor, Not Alarmed, Not Reported)  
Service Affecting or Non-Service Affecting alarm-service level  
63-character alarm description for CTC display in the alarm log. You cannot assign the fan-tray  
abbreviation for the alarm; the abbreviation reflects the generic name of the input contacts. The  
alarm condition remains raised until the external input stops driving the contact or you unprovision  
the alarm input.  
You cannot assign the fan-tray abbreviation for the alarm; the abbreviation reflects the generic name of  
the input contacts. The alarm condition remains raised until the external input stops driving the contact  
or you provision the alarm input.  
The output contacts can be provisioned to close on a trigger or to close manually. The trigger can be a  
local alarm severity threshold, a remote alarm severity, or a virtual wire, as follows:  
Local NE alarm severity: A hierarchy of Not Reported, Not Alarmed, Minor, Major, or Critical  
alarm severities that you set to cause output closure. For example, if the trigger is set to Minor, a  
Minor alarm or above is the trigger.  
Remote NE alarm severity: Same as the local NE alarm severity but applies to remote alarms only.

Chapter 2 Common Control Cards  
2.7.3 Orderwire  
Virtual wire entities: You can provision any environmental alarm input to raise a signal on any  
virtual wire on external outputs 1 through 4 when the alarm input is an event. You can provision a  
signal on any virtual wire as a trigger for an external control output.  
You can also program the output alarm contacts (external controls) separately. In addition to  
provisionable triggers, you can manually force each external output contact to open or close. Manual  
operation takes precedence over any provisioned triggers that might be present.  
2.7.3 Orderwire  
Orderwire allows a craftsperson to plug a phone set into an ONS 15454 SDH and communicate with  
craftspeople working at other ONS 15454 SDHs or other facility equipment. The orderwire is a pulse  
code modulation (PCM) encoded voice channel that uses E1 or E2 bytes in the multiplex section  
overhead and in the regenerator section overhead.  
The AIC-I allows simultaneous use of both local (section overhead signal) and express (line overhead  
signal) orderwire channels on an SDH ring or particular optics facility. Express orderwire also allows  
communication via regeneration sites when the regenerator is not a Cisco device.  
You can provision orderwire functions with CTC similar to the current provisioning model for GCC  
channels. In CTC, you provision the orderwire communications network during ring turn-up so that all  
NEs on the ring can communicate with one another. Orderwire terminations (that is, the optics facilities  
that receive and process the orderwire channels) are provisionable. Both express and local orderwire can  
be configured as on or off on a particular SDH facility. The ONS 15454 SDH supports up to four  
orderwire channel terminations per shelf. This allows linear, single ring, dual ring, and small  
hub-and-spoke configurations. Keep in mind that orderwire is not protected in ring topologies such as  
multiplex section-shared protection ring (MS-SPRing) and subnetwork connection protection (SNCP).  
Caution  
Do not configure orderwire loops. Orderwire loops cause feedback that disables the orderwire channel.  
The ONS 15454 SDH implementation of both local and express orderwire is broadcast in nature. The  
line acts as a party line. Anyone who picks up the orderwire channel can communicate with all other  
participants on the connected orderwire subnetwork. The local orderwire party line is separate from the  
express orderwire party line. Up to four STM-N facilities for each local and express orderwire are  
provisionable as orderwire paths.  
Note  
The OC3 IR 4/STM1 SH 1310 card does not support the express orderwire (EOW) channel.  
The AIC-I supports selective dual tone multifrequency (DTMF) dialing for telephony connectivity,  
which causes specific or all ONS 15454 SDH AIC-Is on the orderwire subnetwork to “ring.” The  
ringer/buzzer resides on the AIC-I. There is also a “ring” LED that mimics the AIC-I ringer. It flashes  
when a call is received on the orderwire subnetwork. A party line call is initiated by pressing *0000 on  
the DTMF pad. Individual dialing is initiated by pressing * and the individual four-digit number on the  
DTMF pad. The station number of the node is provisioned in CTC.  
The orderwire ports are standard RJ-11 receptacles. The pins on the orderwire ports correspond to the  
tip and ring orderwire assignments.

2.7.5 User Data Channel  
The user data channel (UDC) features a dedicated data channel of 64 kbps (F1 byte) between two nodes  
in an ONS 15454 SDH network. Each AIC-I card provides two UDCs, UDC-A and UDC-B, through

3.5.1 DS3i-N-12 Card Functionality  
The DS3i-N-12 can detect several different errored logic bits within a DS-3 frame. This function lets the  
ONS 15454 SDH identify a degrading DS-3 facility caused by upstream electronics (DS-3 Framer). In  
addition, DS-3 frame format autodetection and J1 path trace are supported. By monitoring additional  
overhead in the DS-3 frame, subtle network degradations can be detected.  
The DS3i-n-12 can also aggregate DS3 and E1 traffic and transport it between SONET and SDH  
networks through AU4/STS 3 trunks, with the ability to add and drop DS3s to an STS3 trunk at  
intermediate nodes.  
The following list summarizes the DS3i-N-12 card features:  
Provisionable framing format (M23, C-bit, or unframed)  
Autorecognition and provisioning of incoming framing  
VC-3 payload mapping as per ITU-T G.707  
Idle signal (“1100”) monitoring as per Telcordia GR-499-CORE

1.0/2.3 miniature coax nonbalanced connectors.  
Note  
The lowest level cross-connect with the XC10G card is STM-1. Lower level signals, such as E-1, DS-3,  
or E-3, can be dropped. This might leave part of the bandwidth unused. The lowest level cross-connect  
with the XC-VXL-10G card and the XC-VXL-2.5G card is VC-12 (2.048 Mbps).  
3.5.2 DS3i-N-12 Card-Level Indicators  
Table 3-6 describes the three LEDs on the DS3i-N-12 card faceplate.  
Table 3-6  
DS3i-N-12 Card-Level Indicators  
Card-Level LEDs  
Description  
Red FAIL LED  
Indicates that the card’s processor is not ready. The FAIL LED is on during  
reset and flashes during the boot process. Replace the card if the red FAIL  
LED persists in flashing.  
ACT/STBY LED  
Green (Active)  
Amber (Standby)  
Amber SF LED  
When the ACT/STBY LED is green, the DS3i-N-12 card is operational and  
ready to carry traffic. When the ACT/STBY LED is amber, the DS3i-N-12  
card is operational and in Standby (protect) mode.  
Indicates a signal failure or condition such as LOS or LOF on one or more  
of the card’s ports.  
3.5.3 DS3i-N-12 Port-Level Indicators  
You can find the status of the DS3i-N-12 card ports using the LCD screen on the ONS 15454 SDH  
fan-tray assembly. Use the LCD to view the status of any port or card slot; the screen displays the number  
and severity of alarms for a given port or slot. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide  
for a complete description of the alarm messages.

3.6 STM1E-12 Card  
The 12-port ONS 15454 SDH STM1E-12 card provides 12 ITU-compliant, G.703 STM-1 ports per card.  
Ports 9 to 12 can each be either E-4 or STM-1. Each interface operates at 155.52 Mbps for STM-1 or  
139.264 Mbps for E-4 over a 75-ohm coaxial cable (with the FMEC STM1E 1:1 card). In E-4 mode,  
framed or unframed signal operation is possible. The STM1E-12 card operates as a working or protect  
card in 1:1 protection schemes. Figure 3-5 shows the STM1E-12 faceplate and block diagram.

3.6.1 STM 1E-12 Card Functionality  
You can install the STM1E-12 card in Slots 1 to 4 and 14 to 17 on the ONS 15454 SDH. Each STM1E-12  
port features ITU-T G.703 compliant outputs supporting cable losses of up to 12.7 dB at 78 MHz. The  
STM1E-12 card supports non-protection and 1:1 protection. In both cases, the FMEC STM1E 1:1 card  
is used. Up to two non-protected active STM1E cards use the same FMEC STM1E 1:1 card, and one  
active plus one protect STM1E cards use the same FMEC STM1E 1:1 card.

3.6.2 STM1E-12 Card-Level Indicators  
Note  
When a protection switch moves traffic from the STM1E-12 working/active card to the STM1E-12  
protect/standby card, ports on the now active/standby card cannot be taken out of service. Lost traffic  
can result if you take a port out of service, even if the STM1E-12 active/standby card no longer carries  
traffic.  
Note  
Use an external clock when doing service disruption time measurements on the STM1E-12.

3.7 BLANK Card  
The BLANK card provides EMC emission control for empty interface card slots. It also provides a way  
to close off the subrack front area, thus allowing air flow and convection to be maintained through the  
subrack. Figure 3-6 shows the BLANK card faceplate.  
Caution  
You must install the BLANK card in every empty interface card slot to maintain EMC requirements of  
the system and proper air flow.

3.13.1 E1-75/120 Impedance Conversion Panel Functionality  
3.13.1 E1-75/120 Impedance Conversion Panel Functionality  
You can install the E1-75/120 conversion panel in the rack containing the ONS 15454 SDH shelf or in a  
nearby rack. If you install the E1-75/120 conversion panel in a place where a longer cable is required,  
make sure that the total cable loss of the balanced 120-ohm cable and the unbalanced 75-ohm cable does  
not exceed the maximum allowed value. The E1-75/120 conversion panel enables the use of 75-ohm  
interfaces on client side with the E1-42 card that has 120-ohm interfaces.  
Before you can install the E1-75/120 in the rack, install the type of rackmount brackets that is required  
for the rack that you are using.  
3.14 FMEC-E3/DS3 Card  
The ONS 15454 SDH FMEC-E3/DS3 card provides front mount electrical connection for  
12 ITU-compliant, G.703 E-3 or DS-3 ports. With the FMEC-E3/DS3 card, each interface of an E3-12  
card operates at 34.368 Mbps and each interface of a DS3i-N-12 card operates at 44.736 Mbps over a  
75-ohm unbalanced coaxial 1.0/2.3 miniature coax connector. Figure 3-15 shows the FMEC-E3/DS3  
faceplate and block diagram.  
Caution  
This interface can only be connected to SELV circuits. The interface is not intended for connection to  
any Australian telecommunications network without the written consent of the network manager.

3.15 FMEC STM1E 1:1 Card  
The ONS 15454 SDH FMEC STM1E 1:1 card provides front mount electrical connection for 2 x 12  
ITU-compliant, G.703 STM1E ports. Ports 9 to 12 can be switched to E-4 instead of STM-1 (via CTC,  
on the STM1E-12 card). With the FMEC STM1E 1:1 card, each interface of an STM1E-12 card operates  
at 155.52 Mbps for STM-1 or 139.264 Mbps for E-4 over a 75-ohm unbalanced coaxial 1.0/2.3 miniature  
coax connector. The FMEC STM1E 1:1 card is required if you want to use the STM1E-12 card in 1:1  
protection mode or for connection to two unprotected STM1E-12 cards.

supporting cable losses of up to 12.7 dB at 78 MHz.  
3.16 FMEC-BLANK Card  
The FMEC-BLANK card provides EMC emission control for empty FMEC slots. It also provides a way  
to close off the EFCA area, thus allowing air flow and convection to be maintained through the EFCA.  
Figure 3-17 shows the FMEC-BLANK card faceplate.  
You must install the BLANK FMEC in every empty FMEC slot to maintain EMC requirements of the  
system and proper air flow.

3.17.1 MIC-A/P Connector Pinouts  
Note  
Note  
For proper system operation, both the MIC-A/P and the MIC-C/T/P FMECs must be installed in the  
ONS 15454 SDH shelf.  
The MIC-A/P card controls whether FMEC cards on its side of the shelf appear in the CTC graphical  
user interface (GUI). For example, if the MIC-A/P is removed from the shelf, FMECS to the left of the  
card may disappear in CTC. This is normal behavior because when the MIC-A/P card is removed,  
communication can no longer be established with the disappeared FMECS. For more information, refer  
to the IMPROPROMVL entry in the “Alarm Troubleshooting” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH  
Troubleshooting Guide.

available in multiple wavelengths in the 1550-nm  
range of the ITU grid for 100-GHz-spaced DWDM.  
Note  
The Cisco OC3 IR/STM1 SH 1310-8, OC12 IR/STM4 SH 1310, and OC48 IR/STM16 SH AS 1310  
interface optics, all working on 1310 nm, are optimized for the most widely used SMF-28 fiber, available  
from many suppliers.  
Corning MetroCor fiber is optimized for optical interfaces that transmit at 1550 nm or in the C and L  
DWDM windows, and targets interfaces with higher dispersion tolerances than those found in  
OC3 IR/STM1 SH 1310-8, OC12 IR/STM4 SH 1310, and OC48 IR/STM16 SH AS1310 interface optics.  
If you are using Corning MetroCor fiber, OC3 IR/STM1 SH 1310-8, OC12 IR/STM4 SH 1310, and  
OC48 IR/STM16 SH AS 1310 interface optics become dispersion limited before they become  
attenuation limited. In this case, consider using OC12 LR/STM4 LH 1550 and OC48 LR/STM16 LH  
1550 AS cards instead of OC12 IR/STM4 SH and OC48 IR/STM16 SH cards.  
With all fiber types, network planners/engineers should review the relative fiber type and optics  
specifications to determine attenuation, dispersion, and other characteristics to ensure appropriate  
deployment.

4.2.1 OC3 IR 4/STM1 SH 1310 Functionality  
You can install the OC3 IR 4/STM1 SH 1310 card in Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to 17. The card can be  
provisioned as part of a subnetwork connection protection (SNCP) ring or linear add-drop multiplexer  
(ADM) configuration. Each interface features a 1310-nm laser and contains a transmit and receive  
connector (labeled) on the card faceplate. The card uses SC connectors.  
The OC3 IR 4/STM1 SH 1310 card supports 1+1 unidirectional and bidirectional protection switching.  
You can provision protection on a per port basis.  
The OC3 IR 4/STM1 SH 1310 card detects loss of signal (LOS), loss of frame (LOF), loss of pointer  
(LOP), multiplex section alarm indication signal (MS-AIS), and multiplex section far-end receive failure  
(MS-FERF) conditions. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide for a description of  
these conditions. The card also counts section and line bit interleaved parity (BIP) errors.  
To enable an MSP-SPRing, the OC3 IR 4/STM1 SH 1310 card extracts the K1 and K2 bytes from the  
SDH overhead to perform appropriate protection switches. The data communication channel/generic  
communication channel (GCC) bytes are forwarded to the TCC2 card, which terminates the GCC.

4.7.1 OC12 IR/STM4 SH 1310-4 Card Functionality  
You can install the OC12 IR/STM4 SH 1310-4 card in Slots 1 to 4 and 14 to 17. The card can be  
provisioned as part of an SNCP, part of an multiplex section-shared protection ring (MS-SPRing), or in  
an ADM/TM configuration. Each interface features a 1310-nm laser and contains a transmit and receive  
connector (labeled) on the card faceplate. The card uses SC connectors.  
The OC12 IR/STM4 SH 1310-4 card supports 1+1 unidirectional and bidirectional protection switching.  
You can provision protection on a per port basis.  
The OC12 IR/STM4 SH 1310-4 card detects LOS, LOF, LOP, MS-AIS, and MS-FERF conditions. Refer  
to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide for a description of these conditions. The card also  
counts section and line BIP errors.  
Each port is configurable to support all ONS 15454 SDH configurations and can be provisioned as part  
of an MS-SPRing or SNCP configuration.  
To enable an MSP-SPRing, the OC12 IR/STM4 SH 1310-4 card extracts the K1 and K2 bytes from the  
SDH overhead and processes them to switch accordingly. The GCC bytes are forwarded to the TCC2  
card, which terminates the GCC.

4.7.2 OC12 IR/STM4 SH 1310-4 Card-Level Indicators  
Note  
If you ever expect to upgrade an OC-12/STM-4 ring to a higher bit rate, you should not put an  
OC12 IR/STM4 SH 1310-4 card in that ring. The four-port card is not upgradable to a single-port card.  
The reason is that four different spans, possibly going to four different nodes, cannot be merged to a  
single span.

4.10.1 OC48 ELR/STM16 EH 100 GHz Card Functionality  
You can install the OC48 ELR/STM16 EH 100 GHz cards in Slot 5, 6, 12, or 13. You can provision this  
card as part of a MS-SPRing or SNCP. In an ADM/TM configuration, you can provision the card as either  
an access tributary or a transport span interface.  
Nine of the cards operate in the blue band with a spacing of 2 * 100 GHz in the ITU grid (1530.33 nm,  
1531.90 nm, 1533.47 nm, 1535.04 nm, 1536.61 nm, 1538.19 nm, 1539.77 nm, 1541.35 nm, and  
1542.94 nm). The other nine cards operate in the red band with a spacing of 2 * 100 GHz in the ITU grid  
(1547.72 nm, 1549.32 nm, 1550.92 nm, 1552.52 nm, 1554.13 nm, 1555.75 nm, 1557.36 nm,  
1558.98 nm, and 1560.61 nm).  
Each OC48 ELR/STM16 EH 100 GHz card uses extended long-reach optics operating individually  
within the ITU 100-GHz grid. The OC48 ELR/STM16 EH 100 GHz cards are intended to be used in  
applications with long unregenerated spans of up to 200 km (with mid-span amplification). These  
transmission distances are achieved through the use of inexpensive optical amplifiers (flat gain  
amplifiers) such as erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs). Using collocated amplification, distances  
up to 200 km can be achieved for a single channel (160 km for 8 channels).  
Maximum system reach in filterless applications is 24 dB, or approximately 80 km, without the use  
of optical amplifiers or regenerators. However, system reach also depends on the condition of the  
facilities, number of splices and connectors, and other performance-affecting factors. The  
OC48 ELR/STM16 EH 100 GHz cards feature wavelength stability of +/– 0.25 nm. Each port contains  
a transmitter and a receiver.  
The OC48 ELR/STM16 EH 100 GHz cards are the first in a family of cards meant to support extended  
long-reach applications in conjunction with optical amplification. Using DFB laser technology, the  
OC48 ELR/STM16 EH 100 GHz cards provide a solution at the lower extended long-reach distances.

Note  
The optical output power of the OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 (+4 dBm to +7 dBm) is 6 dB lower than in  
L-64.2b of the 10/2000 prepublished unedited version of ITU-T G.691 (+10 dBm to +13 dBm). However,  
the total attenuation range of the optical path, 22 to 16 dB, is maintained by the optical receiver  
sensitivity range of the OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 (–7 dBm to –24 dBm). This sensitivity range  
outperforms the specification in L-64.2b of the 10/2000 prepublished unedited version of ITU-T G.691  
as the resulting link budget of the card is 26 dBm.

Note  
The terms “Unidirectional Path Switched Ring” and “UPSR” may appear in Cisco literature. These terms  
do not refer to using Cisco ONS 15xxx products in a unidirectional path switched ring configuration.  
Rather, these terms, as well as “Path Protected Mesh Network” and “PPMN,” refer generally to Cisco’s  
path protection feature, which may be used in any topological network configuration. Cisco does not  
recommend using its path protection feature in any particular topological network configuration.

The E100T-G Ethernet card provides high-throughput, low-latency packet switching of Ethernet traffic  
across a SDH network while providing a greater degree of reliability through SDH self-healing  
protection services. This Ethernet capability enables network operators to provide multiple  
10/100-Mbps access drops for high-capacity customer LAN interconnects, Internet traffic, and cable  
modem traffic aggregation. It enables the efficient transport and co-existence of traditional TDM traffic  
with packet-switched data traffic.  
Each E100T-G card supports standards-based, wire-speed, Layer 2 Ethernet switching between its  
Ethernet interfaces. The IEEE 802.1Q tag logically isolates traffic (typically subscribers). IEEE 802.1Q  
also supports multiple classes of service.

You can install the E100T-G card in Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to 17. Multiple E-Series Ethernet cards installed  
in an ONS 15454 SDH can act independently or as a single Ethernet switch. You can create logical SDH  
ports by provisioning a number of SDH channels to the packet switch entity within the ONS 15454 SDH.  
Logical ports can be created with a bandwidth granularity of VC-4.  
5.2.2 E100T-G Card-Level Indicators  
The E100T-G card faceplate has three card-level LED indicators (Table 5-3).

Description  
Red FAIL LED  
The red FAIL LED indicates that the card’s processor is not ready or that a  
catastrophic software failure occurred on the E100T-G card. As part of the  
boot sequence, the FAIL LED is turned on until the software deems the card  
operational.  
Green ACT LED  
SF LED  
A green ACT LED provides the operational status of the E100T-G. If the  
ACT LED is green, it indicates that the E100T-G card is active and the  
software is operational.  
Not used.  
5.2.3 E100T-G Port-Level Indicators  
The E100T-G card also has 12 pairs of LEDs (one pair for each port) to indicate port conditions  
(Table 5-4). You can find the status of the E100T-G card port using the LCD screen on the  
ONS 15454 SDH fan-tray assembly. Use the LCD to view the status of any port or card slot; the screen  
displays the number and severity of alarms for a given port or slot.

Chapter 5 Ethernet Cards  
5.3.1 E1000-2-G Compatibility  
Each E1000-2-G card supports standards-based, Layer 2 Ethernet switching between its Ethernet  
interfaces and SDH interfaces on the ONS 15454 SDH. The IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tag logically isolates  
traffic (typically subscribers).  
Multiple E-Series Ethernet cards installed in an ONS 15454 SDH can act together as a single switching  
entity or as independent single switches supporting a variety of SDH port configurations.  
You can create logical SDH ports by provisioning a number of SDH channels to the packet switch entity  
within the ONS 15454 SDH. Logical ports can be created with a bandwidth granularity of VC-4.  
5.3.1 E1000-2-G Compatibility  
The E1000-2-G is compatible with any traffic card slots (Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to 17).  
5.3.2 E1000-2-G Card-Level Indicators  
The E1000-2-G card faceplate has three card-level LED indicators (Table 5-5).  
Table 5-5 E1000-2-G Card-Level Indicators  
Card-Level Indicators  
Description  
Red FAIL LED  
The red FAIL LED indicates that the card’s processor is not ready or that a  
catastrophic software failure occurred on the E1000-2-G card. As part of the  
boot sequence, the FAIL LED is turned on until the software deems the card  
operational.  
Green ACT LED  
SF LED  
A green ACT LED provides the operational status of the E1000-2-G. If the  
ACT LED is green it indicates that the E1000-2-G card is active and the  
software is operational.  
Not used in this release.  
5.3.3 E1000-2-G Port-Level Indicators  
The E1000-2-G card also has one bicolor LED per port (Table 5-6). When the LINK LED is illuminated  
green, carrier is detected, meaning an active network cable is installed. When the LINK LED is not  
illuminated green, an active network cable is not plugged into the port, or the card is carrying  
unidirectional traffic. The port ACT LED flashes amber at a rate proportional to the level of traffic being  
received and transmitted over the port.

The G1000-4 Gigabit Ethernet card provides high-throughput, low latency transport of Ethernet  
encapsulated traffic (IP and other Layer 3 protocols) across a SDH network. Carrier-class Ethernet  
transport is achieved by hitless (< 50 ms) performance in the event of any failures or protection switches  
(such as 1+1 automatic protection switching [APS], SNCP ring, or MS-SPRing. Full provisioning  
support is possible via Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) or Cisco Transport Manager (CTM). Each  
G1000-4 card performs independently of the other cards in the same shelf.

The G1K-4 Gigabit Ethernet card provides high-throughput, low-latency transport of Ethernet  
encapsulated traffic (IP and other Layer 3 protocols) across a SDH network while providing a greater  
degree of reliability through SDH self-healing protection services. Carrier-class Ethernet transport is  
achieved by hitless (< 50 ms) performance in the event of any failures or protection switches (such as  
1+1 APS, path protection, BLSR, or optical equipment protection) and full provisioning and  
manageability, as in SDH service. Full provisioning support is possible via CTC or CTM. Each G1K-4  
card performs independently of the other cards in the same shelf.  
5.5.1 G1K-4 Compatibility  
Software R4.0 and later identifies G1K-4 cards as G1K-4s upon physical installation. Software prior to  
R4.0 identifies both G1000-4 and G1K-4 cards as G1000-4s upon physical installation.  
You can install the G1K-4 card in Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to 17, for a total shelf capacity of 48 Gigabit  
Ethernet ports. (The practical limit is 40 ports because at least two slots are typically populated by  
optical cards such as the OC-192.)

GBICs are integrated fiber optic transceivers that provide high speed serial links from a port or slot to  
the network. Various latching mechanisms can be utilized on the GBIC pluggable modules. There is no  
correlation between the type of latch to the model type (such as SX or LX/LH) or technology type (such  
as Gigabit Ethernet). See the label on the GBIC for technology type and model. One GBIC model has  
two clips (one on each side of the GBIC) that secure the GBIC in the slot on the Ethernet card; the other  
has a locking handle. Both types are shown in Figure 5-7.

5.8.2.1 DWDM and CWDM GBICs  
DWDM (15454-GBIC-xx.x, 15454E-GBIC-xx.x) and CWDM (15454-GBIC-xxxx,  
15454E-GBIC-xxxx) GBICs operate in the ONS 15454 G-Series card when the card is configured in  
Gigabit Ethernet Transponding mode or in Ethernet over SDH mode. DWDM and CWDM GBICs are  
both wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technologies and operate over single-mode fibers with SC  
connectors. Cisco CWDM GBIC technology uses a 20 nm wavelength grid and Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM  
GBIC technology uses a 1 nm wavelength grid. CTC displays the specific wavelengths of the installed  
CWDM or DWDM GBICs. DWDM wavelengths are spaced closer together and require more precise lasers  
than CWDM. The DWDM spectrum allows for optical signal amplification. For more information on  
G-Series card transponding mode, see the Cisco ONS 15454 Reference Manual.  
The DWDM and CWDM GBICs receive across the full 1300 nm and 1500 nm bands, which includes all  
CWDM, DWDM, LX/LH, ZX wavelengths, but transmit on one specified wavelength. This capability  
can be exploited in some of the G-Series transponding modes by receiving wavelengths that do not match  
the specific transmission wavelength.  
Note  
G1000-4 cards support CWDM and DWDM GBICs. G1K-4 cards with the Common Language  
Equipment Identification (CLEI) code of WM5IRWPCAA (manufactured after August 2003) support  
CWDM and DWDM GBICs. G1K-4 cards manufactured prior to August 2003 do not support CWDM or  
DWDM GBICs.  
The ONS 15454-supported CWDM GBICs reach up to 100 to 120 km over single-mode fiber and support  
eight wavelengths as shown in Table 5-16.

5.8.2.1.1 Placement of CWDM or DWDM GBICs  
CWDM or DWDM GBICs for the G-Series card come in set wavelengths and are not provisionable. The  
wavelengths are printed on each GBIC, for example, CWDM-GBIC-1490. The user must insert the  
specific GBIC transmitting the wavelength required to match the input of the CWDM/DWDM device for  
successful operation (Figure 5-8). Follow your site plan or network diagram for the required  
wavelengths.

5.8.3 SFP Description  
SFPs are integrated fiber optic transceivers that provide high speed serial links from a port or slot to the  
network. Various latching mechanisms can be utilized on the SFP modules. There is no correlation  
between the type of latch to the model type (such as SX or LX/LH) or technology type (such as Gigabit  
Ethernet). See the label on the SFP for technology type and model. One type of latch available is a mylar  
tab (Figure 5-10), a second type of latch available is an actuator/button (Figure 5-11), and a third type  
of latch is a bail clasp (Figure 5-12).  
SFP dimensions are:  
Height 0.03 in. (8.5 mm)  
Width 0.53 in. (13.4 mm)  
Depth 2.22 in. (56.5 mm)  
SFP temperature ranges for are:  
COM—commercial operating temperature range -5•C to 70•C  
EXT—extended operating temperature range -5•C to 85•C

Storage Access Networking Cards  
The FC_MR-4 card is a 1.0625- or 2.125-Gbps Fibre Channel/Fiber Connectivity (FICON) card that  
integrates non-SDH framed protocols into an SDH time-division multiplexing (TDM) platform through  
virtually concatenated payloads. This chapter provides information about the FC_MR-4 card. For  
installation and step-by-step circuit configuration procedures, refer to the  
6.3 FC_MR-4 Card Application, page 6-5  
6.1 FC_MR-4 Card Overview  
The Fibre Channel Multirate 4-port (FC_MR-4) card uses pluggable Gigabit Interface Converters  
(GBICs) to transport non-SONET/SDH-framed, block-coded protocols over SONET/SDH. The  
FC_MR-4 enables four client Fibre Channel (FC) ports to be transported over SONET/SDH,  
encapsulating the frames using the ITU-T Generic Framing Protocol (GFP) format and mapping them  
into either T1X1 G.707-based Virtual Concatenated (VCAT) payloads or standard contiguously  
concatenated SONET/SDH payloads. The FC_MR-4 card has the following features:  
Four FICON ports operating at 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps  
All four ports can be operational at any time due to subrate support  
Advanced Distance Extension capability (buffer-to-buffer credit spoofing)  
Pluggable GBIC optics  
Dual rate (1G/2G): MM (550 m) and SM (10 km)  
Single rate (1G): SX (550 m) and LX (10 km)  
SONET/SDH support  
Four 1.0625 Gbps FC channels can be mapped into SONET/SDH containers as small as  
STS1/VC3 (subrate), with a minimum of STS-24c/VC4-8c for full rate, and as large as  
STS48c/VC4-24c.  
Four 2.125 Gbps FC channels can be mapped into SONET/SDH containers as small as  
STS1/VC3 (subrate), with a minimum of STS48c/VC4-24c for full rate, and as large as  
STS48c/VC4-24c.

6.1.2 FC_MR-4 Port-Level Indicators  
6.1.2 FC_MR-4 Port-Level Indicators  
Each FC_MR-4 port has a corresponding ACT/LNK LED. The ACT/LNK LED is solid green if the port  
is available to carry traffic, is provisioned as in-service, and in the active mode. The ACT/LNK LED is  
flashing green if the port is carrying traffic. The ACT/LNK LED is steady amber if the port is not enabled  
and the link is connected, or if the port is enabled and the link is connected but there is an SONET/SDH  
transport error. The ACT/LNK LED is unlit if there is no link.  
You can find the status of the card ports using the LCD screen on the ONS 15454 SDH fan-tray assembly.  
Use the LCD to view the status of any port or card slot; the screen displays the number and severity of  
alarms for a given port or slot. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide for a complete  
description of the alarm messages.  
6.1.3 FC_MR-4 Compatibility  
The FC_MR-4 cards can be installed in Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to 17 when used with XC-VXL-2.5G,  
XC-VXL-10G, and XC10G cards. The FC_MR-4 card can be provisioned as part of any valid ONS  
15454 SONET/SDH network topology, such as a subnetwork connection protection ring (SNCP) (CCAT  
circuits only), multiplex section-shared protection ring (MS-SPRing), 1+1 subnetwork connection  
(SNC), unprotected, or linear network topologies. The FC_MR-4 card is compatible with Software R4.6  
and greater.  
6.2 FC_MR-4 Card Modes  
The FC_MR-4 card can operate in two modes:  
Line Rate mode. This mode is backward compatible with Software Release 4.6 Line Rate mode.  
Enhanced mode. This mode supports subrate, distance extension, and other enhancements.  
The FC_MR-4 card reboots when changing card modes (a traffic hit results). The FPGA running on the  
card upgrades to the required image. However, the FPGA image in the card’s flash is not be modified.

7.1 Electrical Card Protection  
The ONS 15454 SDH provides a variety of electrical card protection methods. This section describes the  
protection options.  
7.1.1 1:1 Protection  
In 1:1 protection, a working card is paired with a protect card of the same type. If the working card fails,  
the traffic from the working card switches to the protect card.When the failure on the working card is  
resolved, traffic automatically reverts to the working card. Figure 7-1 shows the ONS 15454 SDH in a  
1:1 protection configuration; Slot 2 is protecting Slot 1, Slot 4 is protecting Slot 3, Slot 17 is protecting  
Slot 16, and Slot 15 is protecting Slot 14. Each working card is paired with a protect card. Slots 6 and  
12 are not used for electrical cards. They have no corresponding Front Mount Electrical Connection  
(FMEC) slots.

7.1.2 1:N Protection  
1:N protection allows a single card to protect several working cards. An E1-N-14 card protects up to four  
E1-N-14 cards, and a DS3i-N-12 card protects up to four DS3i-N-12 cards.  
Currently, 1:N protection operates only at the E-1 and DS-3 levels. The 1:N protect cards must match  
the levels of their working cards. For example, an E1-N-14 protects only E1-N-14 cards, and a  
DS3i-N-12 protects only DS3i-N-12 cards.  
The physical E-1 or DS-3 ports on the ONS 15454 SDH FMEC cards use the working card until the  
working card fails. When the node detects this failure, the protect card takes over the physical E-1 or  
DS-3 electrical interfaces through the relays and signal bridging on the backplane. Figure 7-2 shows the  
ONS 15454 SDH in a 1:N protection configuration. Each side of the shelf assembly has only one card  
protecting all of the cards on that side.

7.1.2.1 Revertive Switching  
1:N protection supports revertive switching. Revertive switching sends the electrical interfaces back to  
the original working card after the card comes back online. Detecting an active working card triggers the  
reversion process. There is a variable time period for the lag between detection and reversion, called the  
revertive delay, which you can set using Cisco Transport Controller (CTC). For instructions, refer to the  
Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide. All cards in a protection group share the same reversion  
settings. 1:N protection groups default to automatic reversion.  
Caution  
A user-initiated switch (external switching command) overrides the revertive delay, that is, clearing the  
switch clears the timer.  
7.1.2.2 1:N Protection Guidelines  
Several rules apply to 1:N protection groups in the ONS 15454 SDH:  
Working and protect card groups must reside in the same card bank (A or B).  
The 1:N protect card must reside in Slot 3 for side A and Slot 15 for side B.  
Working cards might sit on either or both sides of the protect card.  
The ONS 15454 SDH supports 1:N equipment protection for all add/drop multiplexer configurations  
(ring, linear, and terminal), as specified by ITU-T G.841.

Chapter 7 Card Protection  
7.2 STM-N Card Protection  
The ONS 15454 SDH automatically detects and identifies a 1:N protect card when the card is installed  
in Slot 3 or Slot 15. However, the slot containing the 1:N card in a protection group must be manually  
provisioned as a protect slot because by default, all cards are working cards.  
7.2 STM-N Card Protection  
With 1+1 port-to-port protection, any number of ports on the protect card can be assigned to protect the  
corresponding ports on the working card. The working and protect cards do not have to be placed side  
by side in the node. A working card must be paired with a protect card of the same type and number of  
ports. For example, a single-port STM-4 must be paired with another single-port STM-4, and a four-port  
STM-4 must be paired with another four-port STM-4. You cannot create a 1+1 protection group if one  
card is single-port and the other is multiport, even if the STM-N rates are the same. The protection takes  
place on the port level, any number of ports on the protect card can be assigned to protect the  
corresponding ports on the working card.  
For example, on a four-port card, you can assign one port as a protection port on the protect card  
(protecting the corresponding port on the working card) and leave three ports unprotected. Conversely,  
you can assign three ports as protection ports and leave one port unprotected.  
With 1:1 or 1:N protection (electrical cards), the protect card must protect an entire slot. In other words,  
all the ports on the protect card are used in the protection scheme.  
1+1 span protection can be either revertive or nonrevertive. With nonrevertive 1+1 protection, when a  
failure occurs and the signal switches from the working card to the protect card, the signal stays switched  
to the protect card until it is manually switched back. Revertive 1+1 protection automatically switches  
the signal back to the working card when the working card comes back online.  
You create and modify protection schemes using CTC software. For more information, refer to the “Turn  
up Node” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
7.3 Unprotected Cards  
Unprotected cards are not included in a protection scheme; therefore, a card failure or a signal error  
results in lost data. An unprotected configuration is sometimes called 1:0 protection. Because no  
bandwidth is reserved for protection, unprotected schemes maximize the available ONS 15454 SDH  
bandwidth. Figure 7-3 shows the ONS 15454 SDH in an unprotected configuration. All cards are in a  
working state.

7.4 External Switching Commands  
The external switching commands on the ONS 15454 SDH are Manual, Force, and Lock out. If you  
choose a Manual switch, the command will switch traffic only if the path has an error rate less than the  
signal degrade (SD) bit error rate threshold. A Force switch will switch traffic even if the path has SD  
or signal fail (SF) conditions; however, a Force switch will not override an SF on a 1+1 protection  
channel. A Force switch has a higher priority than a Manual switch. Lock outs, which prevent traffic  
from switching to the protect port under any circumstance, can only be applied to protect cards (in 1+1  
configurations) . Lockouts have the highest priority.  
Note  
Force and Manual switches do not apply to 1:1 protection groups; these ports have a single switch  
command.  
Another way to inhibit protection switching in a 1+1 configuration is to apply a lock on to the working  
port. A working port with a lock on applied cannot switch traffic to the protect port in the protection  
group (pair). In 1:1 protection groups, working or protect ports can have a lock on.

Cisco Transport Controller Operation  
This chapter describes Cisco Transport Controller (CTC), the Cisco software interface for the Cisco  
ONS 15454 SDH. For CTC set up and login information, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure  
8.8 Software Revert, page 8-15  
8.1 CTC Software Delivery Methods  
ONS 15454 SDH provisioning and administration is performed using the CTC software. CTC is a Java  
application that is installed in two locations;CTC is stored on the Advanced Timing, Communications,  
and Control (TCC2) card or the Advanced Timing, Communications, and Control Plus (TCC2P) card,  
and it is downloaded to your workstation the first time you log into the ONS 15454 SDH with a new  
software release.  
8.1.1 CTC Software Installed on the TCC2/TCC2P Card  
CTC software is preloaded on the ONS 15454 SDH TCC2/TCC2P card; therefore, you do not need to  
install software on the TCC2/TCC2P cards. When a new CTC software version is released, use the  
release-specific software upgrade guide to upgrade the ONS 15454 SDH software on the TCC2/TCC2P  
cards.  
When you upgrade CTC software, the TCC2/TCC2P cards store the new CTC version as the protect CTC  
version. When you activate the new CTC software, the TCC2/TCC2P cards store the older CTC version  
as the protect CTC version, and the newer CTC release becomes the working version. You can view the  
software versions that are installed on an ONS 15454 SDH by selecting the Maintenance > Software tabs  
in node view (Figure 8-1).

8.1.2 CTC Software Installed on the PC or UNIX Workstation  
8.1.2 CTC Software Installed on the PC or UNIX Workstation  
CTC software is downloaded from the TCC2/TCC2P cards and installed on your computer automatically  
after you connect to the ONS 15454 SDH with a new software release for the first time. Downloading  
the CTC software files automatically ensures that your computer is running the same CTC software  
version as the TCC2/TCC2P cards you are accessing. The computer CTC software files are stored in the  
temporary directory designated by your computer’s operating system. You can use the Delete CTC  
Cache button to remove files stored in the temporary directory. If the files are deleted, they download  
the next time you connect to an ONS 15454 SDH. Downloading the Java archive files, called “JAR” files,  
for CTC takes several minutes depending on the bandwidth of the connection between your workstation  
and the ONS 15454 SDH. For example, JAR files downloaded from a modem or a data communication  
channel (DCC) network link require more time than JAR files downloaded over a LAN connection.  
8.2 CTC Installation Overview  
To connect to an ONS 15454 SDH using CTC, you enter the ONS 15454 SDH IP address in the URL  
field of Netscape Communicator or Microsoft Internet Explorer. After connecting to an  
ONS 15454 SDH, the following occurs automatically:  
1. A CTC launcher applet is downloaded from the TCC2/TCC2P card to your computer.  
2. The launcher determines whether your computer has a CTC release matching the release on the  
ONS 15454 SDH TCC2/TCC2P card.  
3. If the computer does not have CTC installed, or if the installed release is older than the  
TCC2/TCC2P card’s version, the launcher downloads the CTC program files from the TCC2/TCC2P  
card.  
4. The launcher starts CTC. The CTC session is separate from the web browser session, so the web  
browser is no longer needed. Always log into nodes having the latest software release. If you log  
into an ONS 15454 SDH that is connected to ONS 15454 SDHs with older versions of CTC, CTC  
files are downloaded automatically to enable you to interact with those nodes. The CTC file  
download occurs only when necessary, such as during your first login. You cannot interact with  
nodes on the network that have a software version later than the node that you used to launch CTC.  
Each ONS 15454 SDH can handle up to five concurrent CTC sessions. CTC performance can vary,  
depending upon the volume of activity in each session, network bandwidth, and TCC2/TCC2P card load.  
Note  
The TCC2/TCC2P card requires Software R4.0 or later.  
8.3 PC and UNIX Workstation Requirements  
To use CTC in the ONS 15454 SDH, your computer must have a web browser with the correct Java  
Runtime Environment (JRE) installed. The correct JRE for each CTC software release is included on the  
ONS 15454 SDH software CD and the ONS 15454 SDH documentation CD. If you are running multiple  
CTC software releases on a network, the JRE installed on the computer must be compatible with the  
different software releases.  
You can change the JRE version on the Preferences dialog box JRE tab. When you change the JRE  
version on the JRE tab, you must exit and restart CTC for the new JRE version to take effect. Table 8-1  
shows JRE compatibility with ONS software releases.

1. Software releases 4.0 and later notify you if an older version of the JRE is running on your PC or UNIX workstation.  
Note  
To avoid network performance issues, Cisco recommends managing a maximum of 50 nodes  
concurrently with CTC. The 50 nodes can be on a single DCC or split across multiple DCCs. Cisco does  
not recommend running multiple CTC sessions when managing two or more large networks.  
To manage more than 50 nodes, Cisco recommends using Cisco Transport Manager (CTM). If you do  
use CTC to manage more than 50 nodes, you can improve performance by adjusting the heap size; see  
the “General Troubleshooting” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide. You can  
also create login node groups; see the “Connect the PC and Log Into the GUI” chapter of the  
Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
Table 8-2 lists the requirements for PCs and UNIX workstations. In addition to the JRE, the Java plug-in  
and modified java.policy file are also included on the ONS 15454 SDH software CD and the ONS 15454  
SDH documentation CD.

8.5.2 Network View  
The graphic area displays a background image with colored ONS 15454 SDH icons. A Superuser can set  
up the logical network view feature, which enables each user to see the same network view.  
The lines show DCC connections between the nodes. DCC connections can be green (active) or gray  
(fail). The lines can also be solid (circuits can be routed through this link) or dashed (circuits cannot be  
routed through this link).  
There are four possible combinations for the appearance of DCCs: green/solid, green/dashed, gray/solid,  
or gray/dashed. DCC appearance corresponds to the following states: active/routable,  
active/nonroutable, failed/routable, or failed/nonroutable. Circuit provisioning uses active/routable  
links. Selecting a node or span in the graphic area displays information about the node and span in the  
status area.  
The color of a node in network view, shown in Table 8-10, indicates the node alarm status.

8.5.3 Card View  
Card view provides information about individual ONS 15454 SDH cards (Figure 8-7). Use this window  
to perform card-specific maintenance and provisioning. A graphic showing the ports on the card is  
shown in the graphic area. The status area displays the node name, slot, number of alarms, card type,  
equipment type, and the card status (active or standby), card state if the card is present, or port state  
(Table 8-6 on page 8-8). The information that appears and the actions you can perform depend on the  
card. For more information about card service states, see Appendix B, Administrative and Service  
States.”

Card View  
Note  
CTC provides a card view for all ONS 15454 SDH cards except the TCC2, TCC2P, XC10G,  
XC-VXL-10G, and XC-VXL-2.5G cards. Provisioning for these common control cards occurs at the  
node view; therefore, no card view is necessary.  
Use the card view tabs and subtabs, shown in Table 8-12, to provision and manage the ONS 15454 SDH.  
The subtabs, fields, and information shown under each tab depend on the card type selected. The  
Performance tab is not available for the AIC-I card.

8.6 TCC2/TCC2P Card Reset  
8.6 TCC2/TCC2P Card Reset  
You can reset the ONS 15454 SDH TCC2/TCC2P card by using CTC (a soft reset) or by physically  
reseating a TCC2/TCC2P card (a hard reset). A soft reset reboots the TCC2/TCC2P card and reloads the  
operating system and the application software. Additionally, a hard reset temporarily removes power  
from the TCC2/TCC2P card and clears all buffer memory.  
You can apply a soft reset from CTC to either an active or standby TCC2/TCC2P card without affecting  
traffic. If you need to perform a hard reset on an active TCC2/TCC2P card, put the TCC2/TCC2P card  
into standby mode first by performing a soft reset.  
Note  
When a CTC reset is performed on an active TCC2/TCC2P card, the AIC-I card goes through an  
initialization process and also resets because the AIC-I card is controlled by the active TCC2/TCC2P.  
8.7 TCC2/TCC2P Card Database  
When dual TCC2/TCC2P cards are installed in the ONS 15454 SDH, each TCC2/TCC2P card hosts a  
separate database; therefore, the protect card’s database is available if the database on the working  
TCC2/TCC2P fails. You can also store a backup version of the database on the workstation running CTC.  
This operation should be part of a regular ONS 15454 SDH maintenance program at approximately  
weekly intervals, and should also be completed when preparing an ONS 15454 SDH for a pending  
natural disaster, such as a flood or fire.  
Note  
The following parameters are not backed up and restored: node name, IP address, mask and gateway, and  
Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP) port. If you change the node name and then restore a backed up  
database with a different node name, the circuits map to the new node name. Cisco recommends keeping  
a record of the old and new node names.  
8.8 Software Revert  
When you click the Activate button after a software upgrade, the TCC2/TCC2P copies the current  
working database and saves it in a reserved location in the TCC2/TCC2P flash memory. If you later need  
to revert to the original working software load from the protect software load, the saved database installs  
automatically. You do not need to restore the database manually or recreate circuits.  
Note  
The TCC2/TCC2P card does not carry any software earlier than Software R4.0. You will not be able to  
revert to a software release earlier than Software R4.0 with TCC2/TCC2P cards installed.  
The revert feature is useful if a maintenance window closes while you are upgrading CTC software. You  
can revert to the protect software load without losing traffic. When the next maintenance window opens,  
complete the upgrade and activate the new software load.  
Circuits created and provisioning done after a software load is activated (upgraded to a higher software  
release) will be lost with a revert. The database configuration at the time of activation is reinstated after  
a revert. This does not apply to maintenance reverts (for example, 4.6.2 to 4.6.1), because maintenance  
releases use the same database.

Chapter 8 Cisco Transport Controller Operation  
8.8 Software Revert  
To perform a supported (non-service-affecting) revert from Software R5.0, the release you want to revert  
to must have been working at the time you first activated Software R5.0 on that node. Because a  
supported revert automatically restores the node configuration at the time of the previous activation, any  
configuration changes made after activation will be lost when you revert the software. Downloading  
Release 5.0 a second time after you have activated a new load ensures that no actual revert to a previous  
load can take place (the TCC2/TCC2P will reset, but will not be traffic affecting and will not change  
your database).

Security and Timing  
This chapter provides information about Cisco ONS 15454 SDH users and SDH timing. To provision  
security and timing, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
9.2 Node Timing, page 9-7  
9.1 Users and Security  
The CISCO15 user ID is provided with the ONS 15454 SDH system, but this user ID is not prompted  
when you sign into Cisco Transport Controller (CTC). This ID can be used to set up other  
ONS 15454 SDH users. (To do this, complete the “Create Users and Assign Security” procedure in the  
Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.)  
You can have up to 500 user IDs on one ONS 15454 SDH. Each CTC or Transaction Language One  
(TL1) user can be assigned one of the following security levels:  
Retrieve—Users can retrieve and view CTC information but cannot set or modify parameters.  
Maintenance—Users can access only the ONS 15454 SDH maintenance options.  
Provisioning—Users can access provisioning and maintenance options.  
Superusers—Users can perform all of the functions of the other security levels as well as set names,  
passwords, and security levels for other users.  
By default, multiple concurrent user ID sessions are permitted on the node, that is, multiple users can  
log into a node using the same user ID. However, you can provision the node to allow only a single login  
per user and prevent concurrent logins for all users.  
Note  
You must add the same user name and password to each node the user accesses.

levels.  
9.1.2 Security Policies  
Users with Superuser security privilege can provision security policies on the ONS 15454 SDH. These  
security policies include idle user timeouts, password changes, password aging, and user lockout  
parameters. In addition, a Superuser can prevent users from accessing the ONS 15454 SDH through the  
TCC2/TCC2P RJ-45 port, the MIC-C/T/P LAN connection, or both.  
9.1.2.1 Idle User Timeout  
Each ONS 15454 SDH CTC or TL1 user can be idle during his or her login session for a specified  
amount of time before the CTC window is locked. The lockouts prevent unauthorized users from making  
changes. Higher-level users have shorter default idle periods and lower-level users have longer or  
unlimited default idle periods, as shown in Table 9-3. The user idle period can be modified by a  
Superuser; refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide for instructions.

9.1.2 Security Policies  
9.1.2.2 User Password, Login, and Access Policies  
Superusers can view real-time lists of users who are logged into CTC or TL1 by node. Superusers can  
also provision the following password, login, and node access policies.  
Password expirations and reuse—Superusers can specify when users must change and when they can  
reuse their passwords.  
Login attempts—Superusers can specify the maximum number of times that users are allowed to  
attempt to log into CTC.  
Locking out and disabling users—Superusers can provision the number of invalid logins that are  
allowed before locking out users and the length of time before inactive users are disabled.  
Node access and user sessions—Superusers can limit the number of CTC sessions one user can have,  
and they can prohibit access to the ONS 15454 SDH using the LAN or MIC-C/T/P connections.  
In addition, a Superuser can select secure shell (SSH) instead of Telnet at the CTC Provisioning >  
Security > Access tabs. SSH is a terminal-remote host Internet protocol that uses encrypted links. It  
provides authentication and secure communication over unsecure channels. Port 22 is the default  
port and cannot be changed.  
Note  
The superuser cannot modify the privilege level of an active user. The CTC displays a warning message  
when the superuser attempts to modify the privilege level of an active user.  
9.1.2.3 Audit Trail  
Audit trails prove useful for maintaining security, recovering lost transactions, and enforcing  
accountability. Accountability refers to tracing user activities; that is, associating a process or action  
with a specific user.  
The ONS 15454 SDH maintains a 640-entry, human-readable audit trail of user or system actions such  
as login, logout, circuit creation or deletion, and user- or system-generated actions. Login events include  
authorized Cisco logins using the ONS 15454 SDH TL1 or the CTC graphical user interface. You can  
move the log to a local or network drive for later review. The ONS 15454 SDH generates an event to  
indicate when the log is 80 percent full, and another event to indicate that the oldest log entries are being

Chapter 9 Security and Timing  
9.2 Node Timing  
9.2 Node Timing  
SDH timing parameters must be set for each ONS 15454 SDH. Each ONS 15454 SDH independently  
accepts its timing reference from one of three sources:  
The building integrated timing supply (BITS) pins on the MIC-C/T/P coaxial connectors.  
An STM-N card installed in the ONS 15454 SDH. The card is connected to a node that receives  
timing through a BITS source.  
The internal ST3 clock on the TCC2/TCC2P card.  
You can set ONS 15454 SDH timing to one of three modes: external, line, or mixed. If timing is coming  
from the BITS pins, set the ONS 15454 SDH timing to external. If the timing comes from an STM-N  
card, set the timing to line. In typical ONS 15454 SDH networks:  
One node is set to external. The external node derives its timing from a BITS source wired to the  
BITS MIC-C/T/P coaxial connectors. The BITS source, in turn, derives its timing from a primary  
reference source (PRS) such as a Stratum 1 clock or global positioning satellite (GPS) signal.  
The other nodes are set to line. The line nodes derive timing from the externally timed node through  
the STM-N trunk (span) cards. The MSTP normally derives timing from the line using the OSCM  
or OSC-CSM card that are inside an STM-1 channel.  
You can set three timing references for each ONS 15454 SDH. The first two references are typically two  
BITS-level sources, or two line-level sources optically connected to a node with a BITS source. The third  
reference is usually assigned to the internal clock provided on every ONS 15454 SDH TCC2/TCC2P  
card. However, if you assign all three references to other timing sources, the internal clock is always  
available as a backup timing reference. The internal clock is a Stratum 3 (ST3), so if an ONS 15454 SDH  
node becomes isolated, timing is maintained at the ST3 level.  
The CTC Maintenance > Timing > Report tabs show current timing information for an ONS 15454 SDH,  
including the timing mode, clock state and status, switch type, and reference data.  
Caution  
Mixed timing allows you to select both external and line timing sources. However, Cisco does not  
recommend its use because it can create timing loops. Use this mode with caution.  
9.2.1 Network Timing Example  
Figure 9-1 shows an ONS 15454 SDH network timing setup example. Node 1 is set to external timing.  
Two timing references are set to BITS. These are Stratum 1 timing sources wired to the BITS MIC-C/T/P  
coaxial connectors on Node 1. The third reference is set to internal clock. The BITS outputs on Node 3  
provide timing to outside equipment, such as a digital access line access multiplexer.  
In the example, Slots 5 and 6 contain the trunk (span) cards. Timing at Nodes 2, 3, and 4 is set to line,  
and the timing references are set to the trunk cards based on distance from the BITS source. Reference 1  
is set to the trunk card closest to the BITS source. At Node 2, Reference 1 is Slot 5 because it is  
connected to Node 1. At Node 4, Reference 1 is set to Slot 6 because it is connected to Node 1. At  
Node 3, Reference 1 could be either trunk card because they are an equal distance from Node 1.

9.2.2 Synchronization Status Messaging  
Synchronization status messaging (SSM) is an SDH protocol that communicates information about the  
quality of the timing source. SSM messages are carried on the S1 byte of the SDH section overhead. They  
enable SDH devices to automatically select the highest quality timing reference and to avoid timing  
loops.  
SSM messages are either Generation 1 or Generation 2. Generation 1 is the first and most widely  
deployed SSM message set. Generation 2 is a newer version. If you enable SSM for the  
ONS 15454 SDH, consult your timing reference documentation to determine which message set to use.  
Table 9-5 shows the SDH message set.

Circuits and Tunnels  
This chapter explains Cisco ONS 15454 SDH high-order and low-order circuits; low-order, data  
communication channel (DCC), and IP-encapsulated tunnels; and virtual concatenated (VCAT) circuits.  
To provision circuits and tunnels, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
10.5 Multiple Destinations for Unidirectional Circuits, page 10-12  
10.16 Reconfigure Circuits, page 10-25  
10.1 Overview  
You can create circuits across and within ONS 15454 SDH nodes and assign different attributes to  
circuits. For example, you can:  
Create one-way, two-way (bidirectional), or broadcast circuits. VC low-order path tunnels  
(VC_LO_PATH_TUNNEL) are automatically set to bidirectional and do not use multiple drops.  
Assign user-defined names to circuits.  
Assign different circuit sizes.

Chapter 10 Circuits and Tunnels  
10.2 Circuit Properties  
Enable port grouping on low-order path tunnels. Three ports form a port group. For example, in one  
E3-12 or one DS3i-N-12 card, four port groups are available: Ports 1 to 3 = PG1, Ports 4 to 6 = PG2,  
Ports 7 to 9 = PG3, and Ports 10 to 12 = PG4.  
Note  
CTC shows VC3-level port groups, but the XC10G creates only VC4-level port groups. VC4  
tunnels must be used to transport VC3 signal rates.  
Note  
Monitor circuits cannot be created on a VC3 circuit in a port group.  
Automatically or manually route VC high-order and low-order path circuits.  
Automatically route VC low-order path tunnels.  
Automatically create multiple circuits with autoranging. VC low-order path tunnels do not use  
autoranging.  
Provide full protection to the circuit path.  
Provide only protected sources and destinations for circuits.  
Define a secondary circuit source or destination that allows you to interoperate an ONS 15454 SDH  
subnetwork connection protection (SNCP) ring with third-party equipment SNCPs.  
You can provision circuits at any of the following points:  
Before cards are installed. The ONS 15454 SDH allows you to provision slots and circuits before  
installing the traffic cards. (To provision an empty slot, right-click it and select a card from the  
shortcut menu.) However, circuits cannot carry traffic until you install the cards and place their ports  
in service. For card installation procedures and ring-related procedures, refer to the  
Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
After cards are installed, but before their ports are in service (enabled). You must put the ports in  
service before circuits can carry traffic.  
After cards are installed and their ports are in service. Circuits carry traffic as soon as the signal is  
received.  
10.2 Circuit Properties  
The ONS 15454 SDH Circuits window, which appears in network, node, and card view, is where you can  
view information about circuits. The Circuits window (Figure 10-1 on page 10-4) provides the following  
information:  
Name—The name of the circuit. The circuit name can be manually assigned or automatically  
generated.  
Type—Circuit types are HOP (high-order circuit), LOP (low-order circuit), VCT (VC low-order  
tunnel), VCA (VC low-order aggregation point), OCHNC (dense wavelength division multiplexing  
[DWDM] optical channel network connection; refer to the refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM  
Installation and Operations Guide), HOP_v (high-order virtual concatenated [VCAT] circuit), and  
LOP_v (low-order VCAT circuit).  
Size—The circuit size. Low-order circuits are VC12 and VC3. High-order circuit sizes are VC4,  
VC4-2c, VC4-3c, VC4-4c, VC4-8c, VC4-16c, and VC4-64c. OCHNC sizes are Equipped not  
specific, Multi-rate, 2.5 Gbps No FEC (forward error correction), 2.5 Gbps FEC, 10 Gbps No FEC,  
and 10 Gbps FEC. High-order VCAT circuits are VC4 and VC4-4c. OCHNCs are DWDM only, refer

Source—The circuit source in the format: node/slot/port “port name” virtual container/tributary  
unit group/tributary unit group/virtual container. (The port name appears in quotes.) Node and slot  
always display; port “port name”/virtual container/tributary unit group/tributary unit group/virtual  
container might display, depending on the source card, circuit type, and whether a name is assigned  
to the port. If the circuit size is a concatenated size (VC4-2c, VC4-4c, VC4-8c, etc.), VCs used in  
the circuit are indicated by an ellipsis, for example, VC4-7..9 (VCs 7, 8, and 9) or VC4-10..12 (VC  
10, 11, and 12).  
Destination—The circuit destination in same format (node/slot/port “port name”/virtual  
container/tributary unit group/tributary unit group/virtual container) as the circuit source.

10.2.2 Circuit States  
Table 10-1  
ONS 15454 SDH Circuit Status (continued)  
Status  
Definition/Activity  
PARTIAL  
A CTC-created circuit is missing a cross-connect or network  
span, a complete path from source to destination(s) does not  
exist, or an alarm interface panel (AIP) change occurred on  
one of the circuit nodes and the circuit is in need of repair.  
(AIPs store the node MAC address.)  
In CTC, circuits are represented using cross-connects and  
network spans. If a network span is missing from a circuit,  
the circuit status is PARTIAL. However, a PARTIAL status  
does not necessarily mean a circuit traffic failure has  
occurred, because traffic might flow on a protect path.  
Network spans are in one of two states: up or down. On CTC  
circuit and network maps, up spans appear as green lines,  
and down spans appear as gray lines. If a failure occurs on a  
network span during a CTC session, the span remains on the  
network map but its color changes to gray to indicate that the  
span is down. If you restart your CTC session while the  
failure is active, the new CTC session cannot discover the  
span and its span line does not appear on the network map.  
Subsequently, circuits routed on a network span that goes  
down appear as DISCOVERED during the current CTC  
session, but appear as PARTIAL to users who log in after the  
span failure.  
DISCOVERED_TL1  
PARTIAL_TL1  
A TL1-created circuit or a TL1-like, CTC-created circuit is  
complete. A complete path from source to destination(s)  
exists.  
A TL1-created circuit or a TL1-like, CTC-created circuit is  
missing a cross-connect or circuit span (network link), and a  
complete path from source to destination(s) does not exist.  
CONVERSION_PENDING  
An existing circuit in a topology upgrade is set to this state.  
The circuit returns to the DISCOVERED status once the  
information about in-service topology upgrades, see  
Chapter 11, “SDH Topologies and Upgrades.”  
PENDING_MERGE  
Any new circuits created to represent an alternate path in a  
topology upgrade are set to this status to indicate that it is a  
temporary circuit. These circuits can be deleted if an  
in-service topology upgrade fails. For more information  
about in-service topology upgrades, see Chapter 11, “SDH  
Topologies and Upgrades.”  
10.2.2 Circuit States  
The circuit service state is an aggregate of the cross-connect states within the circuit.  
If all cross-connects in a circuit are in the Unlocked-enabled service state, the circuit service state  
is Unlocked.

Chapter 10 Circuits and Tunnels  
10.2.2 Circuit States  
If all cross-connects in a circuit are in the Locked-enabled,maintenance;  
Unlocked-disabled,automaticInService; or Locked-enabled,disabled service state, the circuit  
service state is Locked.  
Partial is appended to the Locked circuit service state when circuit cross-connects state are mixed  
and not all in the Unlocked-enabled service state. The Locked-partial state can occur during  
automatic or manual transitions between states. The Locked-partial service state can appear during  
a manual transition caused by an abnormal event such as a CTC crash or communication error, or if  
one of the cross-connects could not be changed. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH  
Troubleshooting Guide for troubleshooting procedures. The Locked-partial circuit state does not  
apply to OCHNC circuit types.  
The state of a VCAT circuit is an aggregate of its member circuits. An In Group member has  
cross-connects in the Unlocked-enabled; Unlocked-disabled,automaticInService; or  
Locked-enabled,maintenance service states. An Out of Group member has cross-connects in the  
Locked-enabled,disabled; or Locked-enabled,outOfGroup service states. You can view whether a VCAT  
member is In Group or Out of Group in the VCAT State column on the Edit Circuits window.  
If all member circuits are Unlocked, the VCAT circuit is Unlocked.  
If all In Group member circuits are Locked, the VCAT circuit state is Locked.  
If no member circuits exist or are all Out of Group, the state of a VCAT circuit is Locked.  
A VCAT circuit is Locked-partial when In Group member states are mixed and not all in the  
Unlocked state.  
You can assign a state to circuit cross-connects at two points:  
During circuit creation, you can set the state on the Create Circuit wizard.  
After circuit creation, you can change a circuit state on the Edit Circuit window or from the  
Tools > Circuits > Set Circuit State menu.  
During circuit creation, you can apply a service state to the drop ports in a circuit; however, CTC does  
not apply a requested state other than Unlocked-enabled to drop ports if:  
The port is a timing source.  
The port is provisioned for orderwire or tunnel orderwire.  
The port is provisioned as a DCC or DCC tunnel.  
The port supports 1+1 or multiplex section-shared protection ring (MS-SPRing).  
Circuits do not use the soak timer, but ports do. The soak period is the amount of time that the port  
remains in the Unlocked-disabled,automaticInService service state after a signal is continuously  
received. When the cross-connects in a circuit are in the Unlocked-disabled,automaticInService service  
state, the ONS 15454 SDH monitors the cross-connects for an error-free signal. It changes the state of  
the circuit from Locked to Unlocked or to Locked-partial as each cross-connect assigned to the circuit  
path is completed. This allows you to provision a circuit using TL1, verify its path continuity, and  
prepare the port to go into service when it receives an error-free signal for the time specified in the port  
soak timer.  
To find the remaining port soak time, choose the Maintenance > AINS Soak tabs in card view and click  
the Retrieve button. If the port is in the Unlocked-disabled,automaticInService state and has a good  
signal, the Time Until IS column shows the soak count down status. If the port is  
Unlocked-disabled,automaticInService and has a bad signal, the Time Until IS column indicates that the  
signal is bad. You must click the Retrieve button to obtain the latest time value.  
For more information about cross-connect states, see Appendix B, “Administrative and Service States.”

Right-click an SNCP span to change the state of the path selectors in the SNCP circuit.  
10.3 Cross-Connect Card Bandwidth  
XC10G cards support high-order cross-connections (VC4 and above at STM-1, STM-4, STM-16, and  
STM-64 signal rates). The XC10G does not support any low-order circuits such as VC-11, VC-12, and  
VC3. The XC10G card cross connects standard VC4, VC4-4c, VC4-16c, and VC4-64c signal rates and  
nonstandard VC4-2c, VC4-3c, and VC4-8c signal rates, providing a maximum of 384 x 384 VC4  
cross-connections. Any VC4 on any port can be connected to any other port, meaning that the VC  
cross-connection capacity is nonblocking. The XC10G card manages up to 192 bidirectional VC4  
cross-connects.  
VC4 tunnels must be used with the E3-12 and DS3i-N-12 cards to transport VC3 signal rates. Three ports  
form a port group. For example, in one E3-12 or one DS3i-N-12 card, there are four port groups: Ports  
1 to 3 = PG1, Ports 4 to 6 = PG2, Ports 7 to 9 = PG3, and Ports 10 to 12 = PG4.  
Note  
In SDH Software R3.4 and earlier, the XC10G does not support VC3 circuits for the E3-12 and  
DS3i-N-12 cards. You must create a VC tunnel. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide  
for more information.

10.4 DCC Tunnels  
The XC-VXL-10G and XC-VXL-2.5G card support both low-order and high-order circuits (E-1, E-3,  
DS-3, STM-1, STM-4, STM-16, and STM-64 signal rates). They manage up to 192 bidirectional STM-1  
cross-connects, 192 bidirectional E-3 or DS-3 cross-connects, or 1008 bidirectional E-1 cross-connects.  
The XC10G, XC-VXL-10G, and XC-VXL-2.5G cards work with the TCC2/TCC2P card to maintain  
connections and set up cross-connects within the node. You can create circuits using CTC.  
Note  
Chapter 2, “Common Control Cards,” contains detailed specifications of the XC10G, XC-VXL-10G, and  
XC-VXL-2.5G cards.  
10.4 DCC Tunnels  
SDH provides four DCCs for network element operation, administration, maintenance, and  
provisioning: one on the SDH regenerator section layer (SDCC) and three on the SDH multiplex section  
layer, also called the line DCC (LDCC). A section DCC (SDCC) and line DCC (LDCC) each provide  
192 Kbps of bandwidth per channel. The aggregate bandwidth of the three LDCCs is 576 Kbps. When  
multiple DCC channels exist between two neighboring nodes, the ONS 15454 SDH balances traffic over  
the existing DCC channels. You can tunnel third-party SDH equipment across ONS 15454 SDH  
networks using one of two tunneling methods, a traditional DCC tunnel or an IP-encapsulated tunnel.  
10.4.1 Traditional DCC Tunnels  
In traditional DCC tunnels, the ONS 15454 SDH uses regenerator SDCC for inter-ONS-15454-SDH  
data communications. It does not use the multiplex section DCCs; therefore, the multiplex SDCCs are  
available to tunnel DCCs from third-party equipment across ONS 15454 SDH networks. If D4 through  
D12 are used as data DCCs, they cannot be used for DCC tunneling.  
A traditional DCC tunnel endpoint is defined by slot, port, and DCC, where DCC can be either the  
regenerator SDCC, Tunnel 1, Tunnel 2, or Tunnel 3. You can link a regenerator SDCC to a multiplex  
SDCC (Tunnel 1, Tunnel 2, or Tunnel 3) and a multiplex SDCC to a regenerator SDCC. You can also  
link multiplex SDCCs to multiplex SDCCs and link regenerator SDCCs to regenerator SDCCs. To create  
a DCC tunnel, you connect the tunnel end points from one ONS 15454 SDH STM-N port to another.  
Cisco recommends a maximum of 84 DCC tunnel connections for an ONS 15454 SDH. Table 10-4  
shows the DCC tunnels that you can create.

trunk (span) cards. In the example, three tunnel connections are created, one at Node 1 (STM-1 to  
STM-16), one at Node 2 (STM-16 to STM-16), and one at Node 3 (STM-16 to STM-1).

When you create DCC tunnels, keep the following guidelines in mind:  
Each ONS 15454 SDH can have up to 84 DCC tunnel connections.  
Each ONS 15454 SDH can have up to 84 regenerator SDCC terminations.  
A regenerator SDCC that is terminated cannot be used as a DCC tunnel endpoint.  
A regenerator SDCC that is used as a DCC tunnel endpoint cannot be terminated.  
All DCC tunnel connections are bidirectional.  
Note  
A multiplex SDCC cannot be used for tunneling if a data DCC is assigned.  
10.4.2 IP-Encapsulated Tunnels  
An IP-encapsulated tunnel puts an SDCC in an IP packet at a source node and dynamically routes the  
packet to a destination node. A traditional DCC tunnel is configured as one dedicated path across a  
network and does not provide a failure recovery mechanism if the path is down. An IP-encapsulated  
tunnel is a virtual path, which adds protection when traffic travels between different networks.  
IP-encapsulated tunneling has the potential of flooding the DCC network with traffic resulting in a  
degradation of performance for CTC. The data originating from an IP tunnel can be throttled to a  
user-specified rate, which is a percentage of the total SDCC bandwidth.  
Each ONS 15454 SDH supports up to ten IP-encapsulated tunnels. You can convert a traditional DCC  
tunnel to an IP-encapsulated tunnel or an IP-encapsulated tunnel to a traditional DCC tunnel. Only  
tunnels in the DISCOVERED status can be converted.  
Caution  
Converting from one tunnel type to the other is service-affecting.

10.5 Multiple Destinations for Unidirectional Circuits  
10.5 Multiple Destinations for Unidirectional Circuits  
Unidirectional circuits can have multiple destinations for use in broadcast circuit schemes. In broadcast  
scenarios, one source transmits traffic to multiple destinations, but traffic is not returned back to the  
source. When you create a unidirectional circuit, the card that does not have its backplane receive (Rx)  
input terminated with a valid input signal generates a loss of signal (LOS) alarm. To mask the alarm,  
create an alarm profile suppressing the LOS alarm and apply it to the port that does not have its Rx input  
terminated.  
10.6 Monitor Circuits  
Monitor circuits are secondary circuits that monitor traffic on primary bidirectional circuits. Monitor  
circuits can be created on E1 or STM-N cards. Figure 10-4 shows an example of a monitor circuit. At  
Node 1, a VC4 is dropped from Port 1 of an STM-1 card. To monitor the VC4 traffic, test equipment is  
plugged into Port 2 of the STM-1 card and a monitor circuit to Port 2 is provisioned in CTC. Circuit  
monitors are one-way. The monitor circuit in Figure 10-4 is used to monitor VC4 traffic received by  
Port 1 of the STM-1 card.

10.7.1 Open-Ended SNCP Circuits  
If ONS 15454 SDHs are connected to a third-party network, you can create an open-ended SNCP circuit  
to route a circuit through it. To do this, you create three circuits. One circuit is created on the source  
ONS 15454 SDH network. This circuit has one source and two destinations, one at each  
ONS 15454 SDH that is connected to the third-party network. The second circuit is created on the  
third-party network so that the circuit travels across the network on two paths to the ONS 15454 SDHs.  
That circuit routes the two circuit signals across the network to ONS 15454 SDHs that are connected to  
the network on other side. At the destination node network, the third circuit is created with two sources,  
one at each node connected to the third-party network. A selector at the destination node chooses  
between the two signals that arrive at the node, similar to a regular SNCP circuit.  
10.7.2 Go-and-Return SNCP Routing  
The go-and-return SNCP routing option allows you to route the SNCP working path on one fiber pair  
and the protect path on a separate fiber pair (Figure 10-5). The working path will always be the shortest  
path. If a fault occurs, neither the working fibers nor the protection fibers are affected. This feature only  
applies to bidirectional SNCP circuits. The go-and-return option appears on the Circuit Attributes panel  
of the Circuit Creation wizard.

10.8 MS-SPRing Protection Channel Access Circuits  
You can provision circuits to carry traffic on MS-SPRing protection channels when conditions are fault  
free. Traffic routed on MS-SPRing PCA circuits, called extra traffic, has lower priority than the traffic  
on the working channels and has no means for protection. During ring or span switches, PCA circuits  
are preempted and squelched. For example, in a two-fiber STM-16 MS-SPRing, STMs 9 to 16 can carry  
extra traffic when no ring switches are active, but PCA circuits on these STMs are preempted when a  
ring switch occurs. When the conditions that caused the ring switch are remedied and the ring switch is  
removed, PCA circuits are restored if the MS-SPRing is provisioned as revertive.  
Provisioning traffic on MS-SPRing protection channels is performed during circuit provisioning. The  
Protection Channel Access check box appears whenever Fully Protected Path is unchecked on the circuit  
creation wizard. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide for more information. When  
provisioning PCA circuits, two considerations are important:  
If MS-SPRings are provisioned as nonrevertive, PCA circuits are not restored automatically after a  
ring or span switch. You must switch the MS-SPRing manually.  
PCA circuits are routed on working channels when you upgrade a MS-SPRing from a two-fiber to  
a four-fiber or from one STM-N speed to a higher STM-N speed. For example, if you upgrade a  
two-fiber STM-16 MS-SPRing to an STM-64, STMs 9 to 16 on the STM-16 MS-SPRing become  
working channels on the STM-64 MS-SPRing.

SDH J1 and J2 path trace are repeated, fixed-length strings composed of 64 consecutive bytes. You can

If the string received at a circuit drop port does not match the string the port expects to receive, an alarm  
is raised. Two path trace modes are available:  
Automatic—The receiving port assumes that the first string it receives is the baseline string.  
Manual—The receiving port uses a string that you manually enter as the baseline string.  
10.10 Path Signal Label, C2 Byte  
One of the overhead bytes in the SDH frame is the C2 byte. The SDH standard defines the C2 byte as  
the path signal label. The purpose of this byte is to communicate the payload type being encapsulated  
by the high-order path overhead (HO-POH). The C2 byte functions similarly to EtherType and Logical  
Link Control (LLC)/Subnetwork Access Protocol (SNAP) header fields on an Ethernet network; it  
allows a single interface to transport multiple payload types simultaneously. Table 10-7 provides the C2  
byte hex values.

If a circuit is provisioned using a terminating card, the terminating card provides the C2 byte. A  
low-order path circuit is terminated at the cross-connect card and the cross-connect card generates the  
C2 byte (0x02) downstream to the VC terminating cards. The cross-connect generates the C2 value  
(0x02) to the terminating card. If an STM-N circuit is created with no terminating cards, the test  
equipment must supply the path overhead in terminating mode. If the test equipment is in pass-through  
mode, the C2 values usually change rapidly between 0x00 and 0xFF. Adding a terminating card to an  
STM-N circuit usually fixes a circuit having C2 byte problems.  
10.11 Automatic Circuit Routing  
If you select automatic routing during circuit creation, CTC routes the circuit by dividing the entire  
circuit route into segments based on protection domains. For unprotected segments of circuits  
provisioned as fully protected, CTC finds an alternate route to protect the segment, creating a virtual  
SNCP. Each segment of a circuit path is a separate protection domain. Each protection domain is  
protected in a specific protection scheme including card protection (1+1, 1:1, etc.) or SDH topology  
(SNCP, MS-SPRing, etc.).  
The following list provides principles and characteristics of automatic circuit routing:  
Circuit routing tries to use the shortest path within the user-specified or network-specified  
constraints. Low-order tunnels are preferable for low-order circuits because low-order tunnels are  
considered shortcuts when CTC calculates a circuit path in path-protected mesh networks.  
If you do not choose Fully Path Protected during circuit creation, circuits can still contain protected  
segments. Because circuit routing always selects the shortest path, one or more links and/or  
segments can have some protection. CTC does not look at link protection while computing a path  
for unprotected circuits.  
Circuit routing does not use links that are down. If you want all links to be considered for routing,  
do not create circuits when a link is down.  
Circuit routing computes the shortest path when you add a new drop to an existing circuit. It tries to  
find the shortest path from the new drop to any nodes on the existing circuit.

Chapter 10 Circuits and Tunnels  
10.11.1 Bandwidth Allocation and Routing  
If the network has a mixture of low-order-capable nodes and low-order-incapable nodes, CTC might  
automatically create a low-order tunnel. Otherwise, CTC asks you whether or not a low-order tunnel  
is needed.  
10.11.1 Bandwidth Allocation and Routing  
Within a given network, CTC routes circuits on the shortest possible path between source and destination  
based on the circuit attributes, such as protection and type. CTC considers using a link for the circuit  
only if the link meets the following requirements:  
The link has sufficient bandwidth to support the circuit.  
The link does not change the protection characteristics of the path.  
The link has the required time slots to enforce the same time slot restrictions for MS-SPRing.  
If CTC cannot find a link that meets these requirements, an error appears.  
The same logic applies to low-order circuits on low-order tunnels. Circuit routing typically favors  
low-order tunnels because low-order tunnels are shortcuts between a given source and destination. If the  
low-order tunnel in the route is full (no more bandwidth), CTC asks whether you want to create an  
additional low-order tunnel.  
10.11.2 Secondary Sources and Destinations  
CTC supports secondary sources and destinations (drops). Secondary sources and destinations typically  
interconnect two “foreign” networks (Figure 10-6). Traffic is protected while it goes through a network  
of ONS 15454 SDHs.  
Figure 10-6  
Secondary Sources and Destinations

Several rules apply to secondary sources and destinations:  
CTC does not allow a secondary destination for unidirectional circuits, because you can always  
specify additional destinations after you create the circuit.  
Primary and secondary sources should be on the same node.  
Primary and secondary destinations should be on the same node.  
Secondary sources and destinations are permitted only for regular high-order or low-order  
connections (not for low-order tunnels and multicard EtherSwitch circuits).

Chapter 10 Circuits and Tunnels  
10.12 Manual Circuit Routing  
For point-to-point (straight) Ethernet circuits, only VC endpoints can be specified as multiple  
sources or drops.  
For bidirectional circuits, CTC creates an SNCP connection at the source node that allows traffic to be  
selected from one of the two sources on the ONS 15454 SDH network. If you check the Fully Path  
Protected option during circuit creation, traffic is protected within the ONS 15454 SDH network. At the  
destination, another SNCP connection is created to bridge traffic from the ONS 15454 SDH network to  
the two destinations. A similar but opposite path exists for the reverse traffic flowing from the  
destinations to the sources. For unidirectional circuits, an SNCP drop-and-continue connection is created  
at the source node.  
10.12 Manual Circuit Routing  
Routing circuits manually allows you to:  
Choose a specific path, not necessarily the shortest path.  
Choose a specific VC4/VC3/TUG3/TUG2/VC12 on each link along the route.  
Create a shared packet ring for multicard EtherSwitch circuits.  
Choose a protected path for multicard EtherSwitch circuits, allowing virtual SNCP segments.  
CTC imposes the following rules on manual routes:  
All circuits, except multicard EtherSwitch circuits in a shared packet ring, should have links with a  
direction that flows from source to destination. This is true for multicard EtherSwitch circuits that  
are not in a shared packet ring.  
If you enabled Fully Path Protected, choose a diverse protect (alternate) path for every unprotected  
segment (Figure 10-7).

(Figure 10-10).

Although virtual SNCP segments are possible in low-order tunnels, low-order tunnels are still  
considered unprotected. If you need to protect low-order circuits, use two independent low-order tunnels  
that are diversely routed or use a low-order tunnel that is routed over 1+1, MS-SPRing, or a mixture of  
1+1 and MS-SPRing links.

Chapter 10 Circuits and Tunnels  
10.13 Constraint-Based Circuit Routing  
10.13 Constraint-Based Circuit Routing  
When you create circuits, you can choose Fully Protected Path to protect the circuit from source to  
destination. The protection mechanism used depends on the path CTC calculates for the circuit. If the  
network is composed entirely of MS-SPRing or 1+1 links, or the path between source and destination  
can be entirely protected using 1+1 or MS-SPRing links, no path-protected mesh network (Extended  
SNCP) or virtual SNCP protection is used.  
If Extended SNCP protection is needed to protect the path, set the level of node diversity for the  
Extended SNCP portions of the complete path in the Circuit Creation dialog box:  
Nodal Diversity Required—Ensures that the primary and alternate paths of each Extended SNCP  
domain in the complete path have a diverse set of nodes.  
Nodal Diversity Desired—CTC looks for a node diverse path; if a node-diverse path is not available,  
CTC finds a link-diverse path for each Extended SNCP domain in the complete path.  
Link Diversity Only—Creates only a link-diverse path for each Extended SNCP domain.  
When you choose automatic circuit routing during circuit creation, you have the option to require or  
exclude nodes and links in the calculated route. You can use this option to:  
Simplify manual routing, especially if the network is large and selecting every span is tedious. You  
can select a general route from source to destination and allow CTC to fill in the route details.  
Balance network traffic; by default CTC chooses the shortest path, which can load traffic on certain  
links while other links have most of their bandwidth available. By selecting a required node or a link,  
you force the CTC to use (or not use) an element, resulting in more efficient use of network  
resources.  
CTC considers required nodes and links to be an ordered set of elements. CTC treats the source nodes  
of every required link as required nodes. When CTC calculates the path, it makes sure the computed path  
traverses the required set of nodes and links and does not traverse excluded nodes and links.  
The required nodes and links constraint is only used during the primary path computation and only for  
Extended SNCP domains/segments. The alternate path is computed normally; CTC uses excluded  
nodes/links when finding all primary and alternate paths on Extended SNCPs.  
10.14 Virtual Concatenated Circuits  
Virtual concatenated (VCAT) circuits, also called VCAT groups (VCGs), transport traffic using  
noncontiguous time division multiplexing (TDM) time slots, avoiding the bandwidth fragmentation  
problem that exists with contiguous concatenated circuits. The cards that support VCAT circuits are the  
FC_MR-4 (both enhanced and line rate mode), ML-100T, and ML-1000 cards.  
In a VCAT circuit, circuit bandwidth is divided into smaller circuits called VCAT members. The  
individual members act as independent TDM circuits. All VCAT members should be the same size and  
must originate/terminate at the same end points. For two-fiber MS-SPRing configurations, some  
members can be routed on protected time slots and others on PCA time slots.  
10.14.1 VCAT Member Routing  
The automatic and manual routing selection applies to the entire VCAT circuit, that is, all members are  
manually or automatically routed. Bidirectional VCAT circuits are symmetric, which means that the  
same number of members travel in each direction. With automatic routing, you can specify the

constraints for individual members; with manual routing, you can select different spans for different  
members. The FC_MR-4 and ML-Series cards support common fiber routing. In common fiber routing,  
all VCAT members travel on the same fibers, which eliminates delay between members. Three protection  
options are available for common fiber routing: Fully Protected, PCA, and Unprotected. Each member  
can use a different protection scheme; however, CTC checks the combination to make sure a valid route  
exists and if it does not, the user must modify the protection type. Figure 10-11 shows an example of  
common fiber routing.

10.14.2 Software-Link Capacity Adjustment  
The FC_MR-4 (enhanced mode), ML100T, and ML-1000 cards support Software–Link Capacity  
Adjustment Scheme (SW-LCAS), which uses legacy SONET failure indicators like the AIS-P and RDI-P  
to detect member failure. If used, SW-LCAS removes the failed member from the VCAT circuit for the  
duration of the failure, leaving the remaining members to carry the traffic. When the failure clears, the  
member circuit is added back into the VCAT circuit. SW-LCAS cannot autonomously remove members  
that have defects in the H4/Z7 byte. SW-LCAS is only available for legacy SONET defects such as  
AIS-P, LOP-P, etc. SW-LCAS is optional. You can select SW-LCAS during VCAT circuit creation. The  
FC_MR-4 card in line rate mode does not support SW-LCAS.  
SW-LCAS allows circuit pairing for ML-Series cards over two-fiber MS-SPRing. With circuit pairing,  
a VCAT circuit is set up between two ML-Series cards: one is a protected circuit (line protection) and  
the other is PCA. For four-fiber MS-SPRing, member protection cannot be mixed.  
In addition, you can create non-LCAS VCAT circuits, which do not use SW-LCAS. While SW-LCAS  
member cross-connects can be in different service states, all In Group non-LCAS members must have  
cross-connects in the same service state. A non-LCAS circuit can mix Out of Group and In Group  
members, as long as the In Group members are in the same service state. Non-LCAS members do not  
support the Locked-enabled,outOfGroup service state; to put a non-LCAS member in the Out of Group  
VCAT state, use Locked-enabled,disabled.

Use the Members tab on the Edit Circuit window to add or delete members from a VCAT circuit. The  
capability to add or delete members depends on the card and if the VCAT circuit is SW-LCAS:  
FC_MR-4 (enhanced mode) card—You can add or delete SW-LCAS VCAT members, although it  
might affect service. Before deleting a member, Cisco recommends that you put the member in the  
Locked-enabled,outOfGroup service state. You cannot add or delete members from VCAT circuits  
without SW-LCAS.  
FC_MR-4 (line rate mode) card—All VCAT circuits using FC_MR-4 (line rate mode) cards have a  
fixed number of members; you cannot add or delete members.  
ML-Series card—All VCAT circuits using ML-Series cards have a fixed number of members; you  
cannot add or delete members.

10.15 Merge Circuits  
A circuit merge combines a single selected circuit with one or more circuits. You can merge VCTs, VCA  
circuits, VLAN-assigned circuits, CTC-created circuits, and TL1-created circuits. To merge circuits, you  
choose a circuit on the CTC Circuits tab window and the circuits that you want to merge with the chosen  
(master) circuit on the Merge tab in the Edit Circuits window. The Merge tab shows only the circuits that  
are available for merging with the master circuit:  
Circuit cross-connects must create a single, contiguous path.  
Circuits types must be a compatible. For example, you can combine a HOP with a VCA circuit to  
create a longer VCA circuit, but you cannot combine a LOP with a HOP.  
Circuit directions must be compatible. You can merge a one-way and a two-way circuit, but not two  
one-way circuits in opposing directions.

10.16 Reconfigure Circuits  
Circuit sizes must be identical.  
VLAN assignments must be identical.  
Circuit end points must send or receive the same framing format.  
The merged circuits must become a DISCOVERED circuit.  
If all connections from the master circuit and all connections from the merged circuits align to form one  
complete circuit, the merge is successful. If all connections from the master circuit and some, but not  
all, connections from the other circuits align to form a single complete circuit, CTC notifies you and  
gives you the chance to cancel the merge process. If you choose to continue, the aligned connections  
merge successfully into the master circuit, and unaligned connections remain in the original circuits.  
All connections from the master circuit and at least one connection from the other selected circuits must  
be used in the resulting circuit for the merge to succeed. If a merge fails, the master circuit and all other  
circuits remain unchanged. When the circuit merge completes successfully, the resulting circuit retains  
the name of the master circuit.  
10.16 Reconfigure Circuits  
You can reconfigure multiple circuits, which is typically necessary when a large number of circuits are  
in the PARTIAL state. When reconfiguring multiple circuits, the selected circuits can be any  
combination of DISCOVERED, PARTIAL, DISCOVERED_TL1, or PARTIAL_TL1 circuits. You can  
reconfigure VCTs, VCA circuits, VLAN-assigned circuits, CTC-created circuits, and TL1-created  
circuits.  
Use the CTC Tools > Circuits > Reconfigure Circuits command to reconfigure selected circuits. During  
reconfiguration, CTC reassembles all connections of the selected circuits into circuits based on path size,  
direction, and alignment. Some circuits might merge and others might split into multiple circuits. If the  
resulting circuit is a valid circuit, it appears as a DISCOVERED circuit. Otherwise, the circuit appears  
as a PARTIAL or PARTIAL_TL1 circuit.  
Note  
PARTIAL tunnel and PARTIAL VLAN-capable circuits do not split into multiple circuits during  
reconfiguration.

6. Total LDCC and SDCC usage must be equal to or less than 84. When LDCC is  
provisioned, an SDCC termination is allowed on the same port, but is not  
recommended. Using SDCC and LDCC on the same port is only needed during a  
software upgrade if the other end of the link does not support LDCC. You can  
provision SDCCs and LDCCs on different ports in the same node.  
11.2 Multiplex Section-Shared Protection Rings  
There are two types of MS-SPRings: two-fiber and four-fiber. Two-fiber MS-SPRings share service and  
protection equally, but only two physical fibers are required. For more information, see the  
“11.2.1 Two-Fiber MS-SPRings” section on page 11-2. With four-fiber MS-SPRings, the nodes on both  
sides of the failed span perform a span switch and use the second pair of fibers as the new working route.  
For more information, see the “11.2.2 Four-Fiber MS-SPRings” section on page 11-6.  
The ONS 15454 SDH can support five concurrent MS-SPRings in one of the following configurations:  
Five two-fiber MS-SPRings  
Four two-fiber and one four-fiber MS-SPRings  
Each MS-SPRing can have up to 32 ONS 15454 SDH nodes. Because the working and protect  
MS-SPRings. For information about MS-SPRing protection channels, see the “10.8 MS-SPRing  
Protection Channel Access Circuits” section on page 10-14.  
Note  
MS-SPRings with 16 or fewer nodes have a switch time of 50ms. MS-SPRings with 16 or more  
nodes have a switch time of 100 ms.  
Note  
For best performance, MS-SPRings should have one LAN connection for every ten nodes in the  
MS-SPRing.  
11.2.1 Two-Fiber MS-SPRings  
In two-fiber MS-SPRings, each fiber is divided into working and protect bandwidths. For example, in an  
STM-16 MS-SPRing (Figure 11-1), VC4s 1 to 8 carry the working traffic, and VC4s 9 to 16 are reserved  
for protection. Working traffic (VC4s 1 to 8) travels in one direction on one fiber and in the opposite  
direction on the second fiber. The Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) circuit routing routines calculate  
the “shortest path” for circuits based on many factors, including user requirements, traffic patterns, and  
distance. For example, in Figure 11-1, circuits going from Node 0 to Node 1 typically travel on Fiber 1,  
unless that fiber is full, in which case circuits are routed on Fiber 2 through Node 3 and Node 2. Traffic  
from Node 0 to Node 2 (or Node 1 to Node 3), can be routed on either fiber, depending on circuit  
provisioning requirements and traffic loads.

The SDH K1, K2, and K3 bytes carry the information that governs MS-SPRing protection switches. Each  
MS-SPRing node monitors the K bytes to determine when to switch the SDH signal to an alternate  
physical path. The K bytes communicate failure conditions and actions taken between nodes in the ring.  
If a break occurs on one fiber, working traffic targeted for a node beyond the break switches to the protect  
bandwidth on the second fiber. The traffic travels in a reverse direction on the protect bandwidth until it  
reaches its destination node. At that point, traffic is switched back to the working bandwidth.

11.2.1 Two-Fiber MS-SPRings  
Figure 11-3 shows how traffic is rerouted after a line break between Node 0 and Node 3.  
All circuits originating on Node 0 and carried to Node 2 on Fiber 2 are switched to the protect  
bandwidth of Fiber 1. For example, a circuit carried on VC4-1 on Fiber 2 is switched to VC4-9 on  
Fiber 1. A circuit carried on VC4-2 on Fiber 2 is switched to VC4-10 on Fiber 1. Fiber 1 carries the  
circuit to Node 3 (the original routing destination). Node 3 switches the circuit back to VC4-1 on  
Fiber 2 where it is routed to Node 2 on VC4-1.  
Circuits originating on Node 2 that were normally carried to Node 0 on Fiber 1 are switched to the  
protect bandwidth of Fiber 2 at Node 3. For example, a circuit carried on VC4-2 on Fiber 1 is  
switched to VC4-10 on Fiber 2. Fiber 2 carries the circuit to Node 0 where the circuit is switched  
back to VC4-2 on Fiber 1 and then dropped to its destination.

Four-fiber MS-SPRings double the bandwidth of two-fiber MS-SPRings. Because they allow span  
switching as well as ring switching, four-fiber MS-SPRings increase the reliability and flexibility of  
traffic protection. Two fibers are allocated for working traffic and two fibers for protection, as shown in  
Figure 11-4. To implement a four-fiber MS-SPRing, you must install four STM-16 cards or four STM-64  
cards at each MS-SPRing node.

11.2.2 Four-Fiber MS-SPRings  
Four-fiber MS-SPRings provide span and ring switching.  
Span switching occurs when a working span fails (Figure 11-5). Traffic switches to the protect fibers  
between the nodes (Node 0 and Node 1 in the Figure 11-5 example) and then returns to the working  
fibers that did not fail. Multiple span switches can occur at the same time.

11.2.3 MS-SPRing Bandwidth  
Ring switching occurs when a span switch cannot recover traffic (Figure 11-6), such as when both the  
working and protect fibers fail on the same span. In a ring switch, traffic is routed to the protect fibers  
throughout the full ring.

11.2.3 MS-SPRing Bandwidth  
An MS-SPRing node can terminate traffic it receives from either side of the ring. Therefore,  
MS-SPRings are suited for distributed node-to-node traffic applications such as interoffice networks and  
access networks.  
MS-SPRings share the ring bandwidth equally between working and protection traffic. Half of the  
payload bandwidth is reserved for protection in each direction, making the communication pipe half-full  
under normal operation.  
MS-SPRings allow bandwidth to be reused around the ring and can carry more traffic than a network  
with traffic flowing through one central hub. MS-SPRings can also carry more traffic than an SNCP ring  
operating at the same STM-N rate. Table 11-2 shows the bidirectional bandwidth capacities of two-fiber  
MS-SPRings. The capacity is the STM-N rate divided by two, multiplied by the number of nodes in the  
ring and minus the number of pass-through VC4 circuits.

11.2.4 MS-SPRing Application Sample  
Figure 11-8 shows a sample two-fiber MS-SPRing implementation with five nodes. A regional  
long-distance network connects to other carriers at Node 0. Traffic is delivered to the service provider’s  
major hubs.  
Carrier 1 delivers six E-3s over two STM-1 spans to Node 0. Carrier 2 provides twelve E-3s directly.  
Node 0 receives the signals and delivers them around the ring to the appropriate node.  
The ring also brings 14 E-1s back from each remote site to Node 0. Intermediate nodes serve these  
shorter regional connections.  
The ONS 15454 SDH STM-1 card supports a total of four STM-1 ports so that two additional STM-1  
spans can be added at little cost.

11.2.5 MS-SPRing Fiber Connections  
Plan your fiber connections and use the same plan for all MS-SPRing nodes. For example, make the east  
port the farthest slot to the right and the west port the farthest slot to the left. Plug fiber connected to an  
east port at one node into the west port on an adjacent node. Figure 11-11 shows fiber connections for a  
two-fiber MS-SPRing with trunk cards in Slot 5 (west) and Slot 12 (east). Refer to the  
Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide for fiber connection procedures.  
Note  
Always plug the transmit (Tx) connector of an STM-N card at one node into the receive (Rx)  
connector of an STM-N card at the adjacent node. Cards display an SF LED when Tx and Rx  
connections are mismatched.

11.2.6 Two-Fiber MS-SPRing to Four-Fiber MS-SPRing Conversion  
Two-fiber STM-16 or STM-64 MS-SPRings can be converted to four-fiber MS-SPRings. To convert the  
MS-SPRing, install two STM-16 or STM-64 cards at each two-fiber MS-SPRing node, then log into CTC  
and convert each node from two-fiber to four-fiber. The fibers that were divided into working and protect  
bandwidths for the two-fiber MS-SPRing are now fully allocated for working MS-SPRing traffic. Refer  
to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide for MS-SPRing conversion procedures.  
11.3 Subnetwork Connection Protection  
Subnetwork connection protection (SNCP) rings provide duplicate fiber paths in the network. Working  
traffic flows in one direction and protection traffic flows in the opposite direction. If a problem occurs  
in the working traffic path, the receiving node switches to the path coming from the opposite direction.  
With SNCP ring networks, switching occurs at the end of the path and is triggered by defects or alarms  
along the path.  
The network can be divided into a number of interconnected subnetworks. Within each subnetwork,  
protection is provided at the path level and the automatic protection switching between two paths is  
provided at the subnetwork boundaries. The node at the end of the path and the intermediate nodes in  
the path select the best traffic signal. The virtual container is not terminated at the intermediate node;  
instead, it compares the quality of the signal on the two incoming ports and selects the better signal.

11.3 Subnetwork Connection Protection  
CTC automates ring configuration. SNCP ring network traffic is defined within the ONS 15454 SDH on  
a circuit-by-circuit basis. If an extended SNCP ring mesh network circuit is not defined within a 1+1 or  
MS-SPRing line protection scheme and path protection is available and specified, CTC uses an SNCP  
ring as the default protection mechanism.  
An SNCP ring circuit requires two DCC-provisioned optical spans per node. SNCP ring circuits can be  
created across these spans until their bandwidth is consumed.  
The span bandwidth consumed by an SNCP ring circuit is two times the circuit bandwidth because the  
circuit is duplicated. The cross-connection bandwidth consumed by an SNCP ring circuit is three times  
the circuit bandwidth at the source and destination nodes only. The cross-connection bandwidth  
consumed by an intermediate node has a factor of one.  
The SNCP ring circuit limit is the sum of the optical bandwidth containing 84 section data  
communication channels (SDCCs) or 28 line data communication channels (LDCCs), divided by two.  
The spans can be of any bandwidth from STM-1 to STM-64.  
Figure 11-13 shows a basic SNCP ring configuration. If Node A sends a signal to Node C, the working  
signal travels on the working traffic path through Node B.

Because each traffic path is transported around the entire ring, SNCP rings are best suited for networks  
where traffic concentrates at one or two locations and is not widely distributed. SNCP ring capacity is  
equal to its bit rate. Services can originate and terminate on the same SNCP ring, or they can be passed  
to an adjacent access or interoffice ring for transport to the service-terminating node.

Figure 11-15 shows a common SNCP ring application. STM-1 path circuits provide remote switch  
connectivity to a host V5.x switch. In the example, each remote switch requires eight E-1s to return to

shelf assembly to provide support for a second or third ring to other existing or planned remote sites.  
In this sample STM-1 SNCP ring, Node A contains four E1-14 cards and two STM-1 cards. Six free slots  
are available, which you can provision with cards or leave empty.

11.4 Dual Ring Interconnect  
11.4 Dual Ring Interconnect  
Dual ring interconnect (DRI) topology provides an extra level of path protection for circuits on  
interconnected rings. DRI allows users to interconnect MS-SPRings, SNCPs, or an SNCP with an  
MS-SPRing, with additional protection provided at the transition nodes. In a DRI topology, ring  
interconnections occur at two or four nodes.  
The drop-and-continue DRI method is used for all ONS 15454 SDH DRIs. In drop-and-continue DRI, a  
primary node drops the traffic to the connected ring and routes traffic to a secondary node within the  
same ring. The secondary node also routes the traffic to the connected ring; that is, the traffic is dropped  
at two different interconnection nodes to eliminate single points of failure. To route circuits on DRI, you  
must choose the Dual Ring Interconnect option during circuit provisioning. Dual transmit is not  
supported.  
Two DRI topologies can be implemented on the ONS 15454 SDH:  
A traditional DRI requires two pairs of nodes to interconnect two networks. Each pair of  
user-defined primary and secondary nodes drops traffic over a pair of interconnection links to the  
other network.  
An integrated DRI requires one pair of nodes to interconnect two networks. The two interconnected  
nodes replace the interconnection ring.  
For DRI topologies, a hold-off timer sets the amount of time before a selector switch occurs. It reduces  
the likelihood of multiple switches, such as:  
Both a service selector and a path selector  
Both a line switch and a path switch of a service selector  
For example, if a SNCP DRI service selector switch does not restore traffic, then the path selector  
switches after the hold-off time. The SNCP DRI hold-off timer default is 100 ms. You can change this  
setting in the SNCP Selectors tab of the Edit Circuits window. For MS-SPRing DRI, if line switching  
does not restore traffic, then the service selector switches. The hold-off time delays the recovery  
provided by the service selector. The MS-SPRing DRI default hold-off time is 100 ms and cannot be  
changed.  
11.4.1 MS-SPRing DRI  
Unlike MS-SPRing automatic protection switching (APS) protocol, MS-SPRing DRI is a path-level  
protection protocol at the circuit level. Drop-and-continue MS-SPRing DRI requires a service selector  
in the primary node for each circuit routing to the other ring. Service selectors monitor signal conditions  
from dual feed sources and select the one that has the best signal quality. Same-side routing drops the  
traffic at primary nodes set up on the same side of the connected rings, and opposite-side routing drops  
the traffic at primary nodes set up on the opposite sides of the connected rings. For MS-SPRing DRI,  
primary and secondary nodes cannot be the circuit source or destination.  
Note  
A DRI circuit cannot be created if an intermediate node exists on the interconnecting link. However, an  
intermediate node can be added on the interconnecting link after the DRI circuit is created.  
DRI protection circuits act as protection channel access (PCA) circuits. In CTC, you set up DRI  
protection circuits by selecting the PCA option when setting up primary and secondary nodes during DRI  
circuit creation.

11.4.2 SNCP Dual Ring Interconnect  
The SNCP dual ring interconnect topology (SNCP DRI) provides an extra level of path protection  
between interconnected SNCP rings. In DRIs, traffic is dropped and continued at the interconnecting  
nodes to eliminate single points of failure. Two DRI topologies can be implemented on the  
ONS 15454 SDH. The traditional DRI uses four ONS 15454 SDHs at the interconnect nodes, while the  
integrated DRI uses two nodes.  
Figure 11-21 shows ONS 15454 SDHs in a traditional DRI topology. In Ring 1, Nodes 4 and 5 are the  
interconnect nodes, and in Ring 2, Nodes 6 and 7 are the interconnect nodes. Duplicate signals are sent  
from Node 4 (Ring 1) to Node 6 (Ring 2), and between Node 5 (Ring 1) and Node 7 (Ring 2). In Ring  
1, traffic at Node 4 is dropped (to Node 6) and continued (to Node 5). Similarly, at Node 5, traffic is  
dropped (to Node 7) and continued (to Node 4).  
To route circuits on the DRI, you must choose the DRI option during circuit provisioning. Circuits with  
the DRI option enabled are routed on the DRI path.

After subtending two MS-SPRings, you can route circuits from nodes in one ring to nodes in the second  
ring. For example, in Figure 11-27 you can route a circuit from Node 1 to Node 7. The circuit would  
normally travel from Node 1 to Node 4 to Node 7. If fiber breaks occur, for example between Nodes 1  
and 4 and Nodes 4 and 7, traffic is rerouted around each ring: in this example, Nodes 2 and 3 in Ring 1  
and Nodes 5 and 6 in Ring 2.  
11.6 Linear ADM Configurations  
You can configure ONS 15454 SDHs as a line of add/drop multiplexers (ADMs) by configuring one set  
of STM-N cards as the working path and a second set as the protect path. Unlike rings, linear  
(point-to-point) ADMs require that the STM-N cards at each node be in 1+1 protection to ensure that a  
break to the working line is automatically routed to the protect line.  
Figure 11-28 shows three ONS 15454 SDH nodes in a linear ADM configuration. Working traffic flows  
from Node 1/Slot 5 to Node 2/Slot 5, and from Node 2/Slot 12 to Node 3/Slot 12. You create the protect  
path by placing Slot 6 in 1+1 protection with Slot 5 at Nodes 1 and 2, and placing Slot 12 in  
1+1 protection with Slot 13 at Nodes 2 and 3.

11.7 Extended SNCP Mesh Networks  
In addition to single MS-SPRings, SNCP rings, and ADMs, you can extend ONS 15454 SDH traffic  
protection by creating extended SNCP mesh networks. Extended SNCP rings include multiple  
ONS 15454 SDH topologies and extend the protection provided by a single SNCP ring to the meshed  
architecture of several interconnecting rings.  
In an extended SNCP ring, circuits travel diverse paths through a network of single or multiple meshed  
rings. When you create circuits, you can provision CTC to automatically route circuits across the  
Extended SNCP ring, or you can manually route them. You can also choose levels of circuit protection.  
For example, if you choose full protection, CTC creates an alternate route for the circuit in addition to  
the main route. The second route follows a unique path through the network between the source and  
destination and sets up a second set of cross-connections.  
For example, in Figure 11-29, a circuit is created from Node 3 to Node 9. CTC determines that the  
shortest route between the two nodes passes through Node 8 and Node 7, shown by the dotted line, and  
automatically creates cross-connections at Nodes, 3, 8, 7, and 9 to provide the primary circuit path.  
If full protection is selected, CTC creates a second unique route between Nodes 3 and 9 which, in this  
example, passes through Nodes 2, 1, and 11. Cross-connections are automatically created at Nodes 3, 2,  
1, 11, and 9, shown by the dashed line. If a failure occurs on the primary path, traffic switches to the  
second circuit path. In this example, Node 9 switches from the traffic coming in from Node 7 to the  
traffic coming in from Node 11 and service resumes. The switch occurs within 50 ms.

Extended SNCP rings also allow spans with different SDH speeds to be mixed together in “virtual rings.”  
Figure 11-30 shows Nodes 1, 2, 3, and 4 in a standard STM-16 ring. Nodes 5, 6, 7, and 8 link to the  
backbone ring through STM-4 fiber. The “virtual ring” formed by Nodes 5, 6, 7, and 8 uses both STM-16  
and STM-4 cards.

11.8 Four Node Configurations  
11.8 Four Node Configurations  
You can link multiple ONS 15454 SDHs using their STM-N cards (that is, create a fiber-optic bus) to  
accommodate more access traffic than a single ONS 15454 SDH can support. Refer to the  
Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide for more information. You can link nodes with STM-4 or  
STM-16 fiber spans as you would link any other two network nodes. The nodes can be grouped in one  
facility to aggregate more local traffic. Each shelf assembly is recognized as a separate node in the  
ONS 15454 SDH software interface and traffic is mapped using CTC cross-connect options.  
11.9 STM-N Speed Upgrades  
A span is the optical fiber connection between two ONS 15454 SDH nodes. In a span (optical speed)  
upgrade, the transmission rate of a span is upgraded from a lower to a higher STM-N signal but all other  
span configuration attributes remain unchanged. With multiple nodes, a span upgrade is a coordinated  
series of upgrades on all nodes in the ring or protection group. You can perform in-service span upgrades  
for the following ONS 15454 SDH cards:  
Single-port STM-4 to STM-16  
Single-port STM-4 to STM-64  
STM-16 to STM-64  
You can also perform in-service card upgrades for the following ONS15454 cards:  
Four-port STM-1 to eight-port STM-1  
Single-port STM-4 to four-port STM-4  
Note  
Since the four-port STM-1 to eight-port STM-1 cards and the single-port STM-4 to four-port STM-4  
cards are the same speed, they are not considered span upgrades.  
To perform a span upgrade, the higher-rate optical card must replace the lower-rate card in the same slot.  
If the upgrade is conducted on spans residing in an MS-SPRing, all spans in the ring must be upgraded.  
The protection configuration of the original lower-rate optical card (two-fiber MS-SPRing, four-fiber  
MS-SPRing, SNCP ring, and 1+1) is retained for the higher-rate STM-N card.  
When performing span upgrades on a large number of nodes, we recommend that you upgrade all spans  
in a ring consecutively and in the same maintenance window. Until all spans are upgraded, mismatched  
card types are present.  
We recommend using the Span Upgrade Wizard to perform span upgrades. Although you can also use  
the manual span upgrade procedures, the manual procedures are mainly provided as error recovery for  
the wizard. The Span Upgrade Wizard and the Manual Span Upgrade procedures require at least two  
technicians (one at each end of the span) who can communicate with each other during the upgrade.  
Upgrading a span is non-service affecting and causes no more than three switches, each of which is less  
than 50 ms in duration.  
Note  
Span upgrades do not upgrade SDH topologies, for example, a 1+1 group to a two-fiber MS-SPRing.  
Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide for topology upgrade procedures.

Chapter 11 SDH Topologies and Upgrades  
11.9.1 Span Upgrade Wizard  
11.9.1 Span Upgrade Wizard  
The Span Upgrade Wizard automates all steps in the manual span upgrade procedure (MS-SPRing,  
SNCP ring, and 1+1). The wizard can upgrade both lines on one side of a four-fiber MS-SPRing or both  
lines of a 1+1 group; the wizard upgrades SNCP rings and two-fiber MS-SPRings one line at a time. The  
Span Upgrade Wizard requires that spans have DCCs enabled.  
The Span Upgrade Wizard provides no way to back out of an upgrade. In the case of an error, you must  
exit the wizard and initiate the manual procedure to either continue with the upgrade or back out of it.  
To continue with the manual procedure, examine the standing conditions and alarms to identify the stage  
in which the wizard failure occurred.  
11.9.2 Manual Span Upgrades  
Manual Span Upgrades are mainly provided as error recovery for the Span Upgrade Wizard, but they can  
be used to perform span upgrades. Downgrading can be performed to back out of a span upgrade. The  
procedure for downgrading is the same as upgrading except that you choose a lower-rate card type. You  
cannot downgrade if circuits exist on the VCs that will be removed (the higher VCs).  
Procedures for manual span upgrades can be found in the “Upgrade Cards and Spans” chapter in the  
Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide. Five manual span upgrade options are available:  
Upgrade on a two-fiber MS-SPRing  
Upgrade on a four-fiber MS-SPRing  
Upgrade on an SNCP ring  
Upgrade on a 1+1 protection group  
Upgrade on an unprotected span

CTC Network Connectivity  
This chapter provides nine scenarios showing Cisco ONS 15454 SDH nodes in common IP network  
configurations as well as information about provisionable patchcords, the routing table, external  
firewalls, and open gateway network element (GNE) networks. The chapter does not provide a  
comprehensive explanation of IP networking concepts and procedures. For IP set up instructions, refer  
to the “Turn Up Node” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
12.6 Open GNE, page 12-27  
Note  
To connect ONS 15454 SDH nodes to an IP network, you must work with a LAN administrator or other  
individual at your site who has IP networking training and experience.  
12.1 IP Networking Overview  
ONS 15454 SDH nodes can be connected in many different ways within an IP environment:  
They can be connected to LANs through direct connections or a router.  
IP subnetting can create ONS 15454 SDH login node groups that allow you to provision non-data  
communications channel (DCC) connected nodes in a network.  
Different IP functions and protocols can be used to achieve specific network goals. For example,  
Proxy Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) enables one LAN-connected ONS 15454 SDH to serve  
as a gateway for ONS 15454 SDH nodes that are not connected to the LAN.  
Static routes can be created to enable connections among multiple Cisco Transport Controller (CTC)  
sessions with ONS 15454 SDH nodes that reside on the same subnet with multiple CTC sessions.  
ONS 15454 SDH nodes can be connected to Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) networks so  
ONS 15454 SDH network information is automatically communicated across multiple LANs and  
WANs.

12.2 IP Addressing Scenarios  
The ONS 15454 SDH proxy server can control the visibility and accessibility between CTC  
computers and ONS 15454 SDH element nodes.  
12.2 IP Addressing Scenarios  
ONS 15454 SDH IP addressing generally has eight common scenarios or configurations. Use the  
scenarios as building blocks for more complex network configurations. Table 12-1 provides a general  
list of items to check when setting up ONS 15454 SDH nodes in IP networks.  
Table 12-1  
General ONS 15454 SDH IP Troubleshooting Checklist  
Item  
What to check  
Link integrity  
Verify that link integrity exists between:  
CTC computer and network hub/switch  
ONS 15454 SDH nodes (MIC-C/T/P wire-wrap pins or RJ-45 port) and  
network hub/switch  
Router ports and hub/switch ports  
ONS 15454 SDH  
hub/switch ports  
If connectivity problems occur, set the hub or switch port that is connected to  
the ONS 15454 SDH to 10 Mbps half-duplex.  
Ping  
Ping the node to test connections between computers and ONS 15454 SDH  
nodes.  
IP addresses/subnet  
masks  
Verify that ONS 15454 SDH IP addresses and subnet masks are set up  
correctly.  
Optical connectivity Verify that ONS 15454 SDH optical trunk (span) ports are in service and that  
a DCC is enabled on each trunk port.  
Note  
The ONS 15454 secure mode option is available when TCC2/TCC2P cards are installed. Secure mode  
TCC2/TCC2P TCP/IP port. Secure mode IP addressing is described in the “12.2.9 Scenario 9: IP  
Addressing with Secure Mode Enabled” section on page 12-19. IP addresses shown in the other  
scenarios assume secure mode is not enabled or, if enabled, the IP addresses shown in the examples apply  
to the MIC-C/T/P LAN port.  
12.2.1 Scenario 1: CTC and ONS 15454 SDH Nodes on Same Subnet  
Scenario 1 shows a basic ONS 15454 SDH LAN configuration (Figure 12-1). The ONS 15454 SDH  
nodes and CTC computer reside on the same subnet. All ONS 15454 SDH nodes connect to LAN A and  
all ONS 15454 SDH nodes have DCC connections.

In Scenario 2 the CTC computer resides on a subnet (192.168.1.0) and attaches to LAN A (Figure 12-2).  
The ONS 15454 SDH nodes reside on a different subnet (192.168.2.0) and attach to LAN B. A router  
connects LAN A to LAN B. The IP address of router interface A is set to LAN A (192.168.1.1), and the  
IP address of router interface B is set to LAN B (192.168.2.1).  
On the CTC computer, the default gateway is set to router interface A. If the LAN uses Dynamic Host  
Configuration Protocol (DHCP), the default gateway and IP address are assigned automatically. In the  
example shown in Figure 12-2, a DHCP server is not available.

12.2.3 Scenario 3: Using Proxy ARP to Enable an ONS 15454 SDH Gateway  
ARP matches higher-level IP addresses to the physical addresses of the destination host. It uses a lookup  
table (called an ARP cache) to perform the translation. When the address is not found in the ARP cache,  
a broadcast is sent out on the network with a special format called the ARP request. If one of the  
machines on the network recognizes its own IP address in the request, it sends an ARP reply back to the  
requesting host. The reply contains the physical hardware address of the receiving host. The requesting  
host stores this address in its ARP cache so that all subsequent datagrams (packets) to this destination  
IP address can be translated to a physical address.  
Proxy ARP enables one LAN-connected ONS 15454 SDH to respond to the ARP request for  
ONS 15454 SDH nodes that are not connected to the LAN. (ONS 15454 SDH proxy ARP requires no  
user configuration.) The DCC-connected ONS 15454 SDH nodes must reside on the same subnet. When  
a LAN device sends an ARP request to an ONS 15454 SDH that is not connected to the LAN, the  
gateway ONS 15454 SDH returns its MAC address to the LAN device. The LAN device then sends the  
datagram for the remote ONS 15454 SDH to the MAC address of the proxy ONS 15454 SDH. The proxy  
ONS 15454 SDH uses its routing table to forward the datagram to the non-LAN ONS 15454 SDH.

Chapter 12 CTC Network Connectivity  
12.2.3 Scenario 3: Using Proxy ARP to Enable an ONS 15454 SDH Gateway  
Scenario 3 is similar to Scenario 1, but only one ONS 15454 SDH (#1) connects to the LAN  
(Figure 12-3). Two ONS 15454 SDH nodes (#2 and #3) connect to ONS 15454 SDH #1 through the SDH  
DCC. Because all three nodes are on the same subnet, proxy ARP enables ONS 15454 SDH #1 to serve  
as a gateway for ONS 15454 SDH #2 and #3.  
Note  
This scenario assumes all CTC connections are to ONS 15454 SDH #1. If you connect a laptop to  
ONS 15454 SDH #2 or #3, network partitioning occurs; neither the laptop or the CTC computer can see  
all nodes. If you want laptops to connect directly to end network elements, you need to create static  
routes (see Scenario 5) or enable the ONS 15454 SDH proxy server (see Scenario 7).

You can also use proxy ARP to communicate with hosts attached to the craft Ethernet ports of  
DCC-connected nodes (Figure 12-4). The node with an attached host must have a static route to the host.  
Static routes are propagated to all DCC peers using OSPF. The existing proxy ARP node is the gateway  
for additional hosts. Each node examines its routing table for routes to hosts that are not connected to  
the DCC network but are within the subnet. The existing proxy server replies to ARP requests for these  
additional hosts with the node MAC address. The existence of the host route in the routing table ensures  
that the IP packets addressed to the additional hosts are routed properly. Other than establishing a static  
route between a node and an additional host, no provisioning is necessary. The following restrictions  
apply:  
Only one node acts as the proxy ARP server for any given additional host.  
A node cannot be the proxy ARP server for a host connected to its Ethernet port.

192.168.3.0, respectively (Figure 12-5). Node 1 and the CTC computer are on subnet 192.168.1.0. Proxy  
ARP is not used because the network includes different subnets. In order for the CTC computer to  
communicate with Nodes 2 and 3, Node 1 is entered as the default gateway on the CTC computer.

12.2.5 Scenario 5: Using Static Routes to Connect to LANs  
Static routes are used for two purposes:  
To connect ONS 15454 SDH nodes to CTC sessions on one subnet that are connected by a router to  
ONS 15454 SDH nodes residing on another subnet. (These static routes are not needed if OSPF is  
enabled.) Scenario 6 shows an OSPF example.  
To enable multiple CTC sessions among ONS 15454 SDH nodes residing on the same subnet.  
In Figure 12-6, one CTC residing on subnet 192.168.1.0 connects to a router through interface A. (The  
router is not set up with OSPF.) ONS 15454 SDH nodes residing on different subnets are connected  
through Node 1 to the router through interface B. Because Nodes 2 and 3 are on different subnets, proxy  
ARP does not enable Node 1 as a gateway. To connect to CTC computers on LAN A, a static route is  
created on Node 1.

The destination and subnet mask entries control access to the ONS 15454 SDH nodes:  
If a single CTC computer is connected to a router, enter the complete CTC “host route” IP address  
as the destination with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255.  
If CTC computers on a subnet are connected to a router, enter the destination subnet (in this example,  
192.168.1.0) and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.  
If all CTC computers are connected to a router, enter a destination of 0.0.0.0 and a subnet mask of  
0.0.0.0. Figure 12-7 shows an example.  
The IP address of router interface B is entered as the next hop, and the cost (number of hops from source  
to destination) is 2.

12.2.6 Scenario 6: Using OSPF  
Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a link state Internet routing protocol. Link state protocols use a “hello  
protocol” to monitor their links with adjacent routers and to test the status of their links to their  
neighbors. Link state protocols advertise their directly connected networks and their active links. Each  
link state router captures the link state “advertisements” and puts them together to create a topology of  
the entire network or area. From this database, the router calculates a routing table by constructing a  
shortest path tree. Routes are continuously recalculated to capture ongoing topology changes.

Chapter 12 CTC Network Connectivity  
12.2.6 Scenario 6: Using OSPF  
ONS 15454 SDH nodes use the OSPF protocol in internal ONS 15454 SDH networks for node discovery,  
circuit routing, and node management. You can enable OSPF on the ONS 15454 SDH nodes so that the  
ONS 15454 SDH topology is sent to OSPF routers on a LAN. Advertising the ONS 15454 SDH network  
topology to LAN routers eliminates the need to enter static routes for ONS 15454 SDH subnetworks  
manually.  
OSPF divides networks into smaller regions, called areas. An area is a collection of networked end  
systems, routers, and transmission facilities organized by traffic patterns. Each OSPF area has a unique  
ID number, known as the area ID. Every OSPF network has one backbone area called “area 0.” All other  
OSPF areas must connect to area 0.  
When you enable an ONS 15454 SDH OSPF topology for advertising to an OSPF network, you must  
assign an OSPF area ID to the ONS 15454 SDH network. Coordinate the area ID number assignment  
with your LAN administrator. All DCC-connected ONS 15454 SDH nodes should be assigned the same  
Figure 12-8 shows a network enabled for OSPF.

12.2.7 Scenario 7: Provisioning the ONS 15454 SDH Proxy Server  
The ONS 15454 SDH proxy server is a set of functions that allows you to network ONS 15454 SDH  
nodes in environments where visibility and accessibility between ONS 15454 SDH nodes and CTC  
computers must be restricted. For example, you can set up a network so that field technicians and  
network operating center (NOC) personnel can access the same ONS 15454 SDH nodes while preventing  
the field technicians from accessing the NOC LAN. To do this, one ONS 15454 SDH is provisioned as  
a gateway network element (GNE) and the other ONS 15454 SDH nodes are provisioned as external

Chapter 12 CTC Network Connectivity  
12.2.7 Scenario 7: Provisioning the ONS 15454 SDH Proxy Server  
network elements (ENEs). The GNE tunnels connections between CTC computers and ENE  
ONS 15454 SDH nodes, providing management capability while preventing access for non-ONS 15454  
SDH management purposes.  
Isolates DCC IP traffic from Ethernet (craft port) traffic and accepts packets based on filtering rules.  
The filtering rules (see Table 12-3 on page 12-16 and Table 12-4 on page 12-17) depend on whether  
the packet arrives at the ONS 15454 SDH DCC or TCC2/TCC2P Ethernet interface.  
Processes SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) and NTP (Network Time Protocol) requests.  
ENEs can derive time-of-day from an SNTP/NTP LAN server through the GNE ONS 15454 SDH.  
Processes SNMPv1 traps. The GNE ONS 15454 SDH receives SNMPv1 traps from the ENE  
ONS 15454 SDH nodes and forwards them to all provisioned SNMPv1 trap destinations.  
The ONS 15454 SDH proxy server is provisioned using the Enable proxy server on port check box on  
the Provisioning > Network > General tab (Figure 12-10). If checked, the ONS 15454 SDH serves as a  
proxy for connections between CTC clients and ONS 15454 SDHs that are DCC-connected to the proxy  
ONS 15454 SDH. The CTC client establishes connections to DCC-connected nodes through the proxy  
node. The CTC client can connect to nodes that it cannot directly reach from the host on which it runs.  
If not selected, the node does not proxy for any CTC clients, although any established proxy connections  
continue until the CTC client exits. In addition, you can set the proxy server as an ENE or a GNE:  
Note  
If you launch CTC against a node through a NAT (Network Address Translation) or PAT (Port  
Address Translation) router and that node does not have proxy enabled, your CTC session starts  
and initially appears to be fine. However CTC never receives alarm updates and disconnects and  
reconnects every two minutes. If the proxy is accidentally disabled, it is still possible to enable  
the proxy during a reconnect cycle and recover your ability to manage the node, even through a  
NAT/PAT firewall.  
External Network Element (ENE)—If set as an ENE, the ONS 15454 SDH neither installs nor  
advertises default or static routes. CTC computers can communicate with the ONS 15454 SDH using  
the TCC2/TCC2P craft port, but they cannot communicate directly with any other DCC-connected  
ONS 15454 SDH.  
In addition, firewall is enabled, which means that the node prevents IP traffic from being routed  
between the DCC and the LAN port. The ONS 15454 SDH can communicate with machines  
connected to the LAN port or connected through the DCC. However, the DCC-connected machines  
cannot communicate with the LAN-connected machines, and the LAN-connected machines cannot  
communicate with the DCC-connected machines. A CTC client using the LAN to connect to the  
firewall-enabled node can use the proxy capability to manage the DCC-connected nodes that would  
otherwise be unreachable. A CTC client connected to a DCC-connected node can only manage other  
DCC-connected nodes and the firewall itself.  
Gateway Network Element (GNE)—If set as a GNE, the CTC computer is visible to other  
DCC-connected nodes and firewall is enabled.  
Proxy-only—If Proxy-only is selected, CTC cannot communicate with any other DCC-connected  
ONS 15454 SDHs and firewall is not enabled.

Figure 12-10  
Proxy Server Gateway Settings  
Figure 12-11 shows an ONS 15454 SDH proxy server implementation. A GNE ONS 15454 SDH is  
connected to a central office LAN and to ENE ONS 15454 SDH nodes. The central office LAN is  
connected to a NOC LAN, which has CTC computers. The NOC CTC computer and craft technicians  
must be able to access the ONS 15454 SDH ENEs. However, the craft technicians must be prevented  
from accessing or seeing the NOC or central office LANs.  
In the example, the ONS 15454 SDH GNE is assigned an IP address within the central office LAN and  
is physically connected to the LAN through its LAN port. ONS 15454 SDH ENEs are assigned IP  
addresses that are outside the central office LAN and given private network IP addresses. If the  
ONS 15454 SDH ENEs are collocated, the craft LAN ports could be connected to a hub. However, the  
hub should have no other network connections.

If the packet is addressed to the ONS 15454 SDH, additional rules shown in Table 12-4 apply. Rejected  
packets are silently discarded.

All packets other than UDP, TCP,  
OSPF, and ICMP.  
If you implement the proxy server, keep the following rules in mind:  
All DCC-connected ONS 15454 SDH nodes on the same Ethernet segment must have the same  
Craft Access Only setting. Mixed values produce unpredictable results, and might leave some nodes  
unreachable through the shared Ethernet segment.  
All DCC-connected ONS 15454 SDH nodes on the same Ethernet segment must have the same  
Enable Firewall setting. Mixed values produce unpredictable results. Some nodes might become  
unreachable.  
If you check Enable Firewall, always check Enable Proxy. If Enable Proxy is not checked, CTC  
cannot see nodes on the DCC side of the ONS 15454 SDH.  
If Craft Access Only is checked, check Enable Proxy. If Enable Proxy is not checked, CTC cannot  
see nodes on the DCC side of the ONS 15454 SDH.  
If nodes become unreachable in cases 1, 2, and 3, you can correct the setting by performing one of the  
following:  
Disconnect the craft computer from the unreachable ONS 15454 SDH. Connect to the  
ONS 15454 SDH through another ONS 15454 SDH in the network that has a DCC connection to the  
unreachable ONS 15454 SDH.  
Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the unreachable ONS 15454 SDH. Connect a CTC computer  
directly to the ONS 15454 SDH.  
12.2.8 Scenario 8: Dual GNEs on a Subnet  
The ONS 15454 SDH provides GNE load balancing, which allows CTC to reach ENEs over multiple  
GNEs without the ENEs being advertised over OSPF. This feature allows a network to quickly recover  
from the loss of GNE, even if the GNE is on a different subnet. If a GNE fails, all connections through  
that GNE fail. CTC disconnects from the failed GNE and from all ENEs for which the GNE was a proxy,  
and then reconnects through the remaining GNEs. GNE load balancing reduces the dependency on the  
launch GNE and DCC bandwidth, both of which enhance CTC performance. Figure 12-14 shows a  
network with dual GNEs on the same subnet.

12.2.9 Scenario 9: IP Addressing with Secure Mode Enabled  
TCC2/TCC2P cards provide a secure mode option allowing you to provision two IP addresses for the  
ONS 15454. One IP address is provisioned for the ONS 15454 SDH MIC-C/T/P LAN port. The other IP  
address is provisioned for the TCC2/TCC2P TCP/IP craft port. The two IP addresses provide an  
additional layer of separation between the craft access port and the ONS 15454 SDH LAN. If secure  
mode is enabled, the IP addresses provisioned for the TCC2/TCC2P TCP/IP ports must follow general  
IP addressing guidelines. In addition, TCC2/TCC2P IP addresses must reside on a different subnet from  
the ONS 15454 SDH MIC-C/T/P port and ONS 15454 SDH default router IP addresses.  
The IP address assigned to the MIC-C/T/P LAN port becomes a private address, which is used to connect  
the ONS 15454 SDH GNE to an OSS (Operations Support System) through a central office LAN or  
private enterprise network. In secure mode, the MIC-C/T/P LAN IP address is not displayed on the CTC  
node view or to a technician directly connected to the node by default. This default can be changed to  
allow the MIC-C/T/P IP address to be displayed on CTC only by a Superuser.

12.3 Provisionable Patchcords  
A provisionable patchcord is a user-provisioned link that is advertised by OSPF throughout the network.  
Provisionable patchcords, also called virtual links, are needed in the following situations:  
An optical port is connected to a transponder or muxponder client port provisioned in transparent  
mode.  
An optical ITU port is connected to a DWDM optical channel card.  
Two transponder or muxponder trunk ports are connected to a DWDM optical channel card and the  
generic control channel (GCC) is carried transparently through the ring.  
Transponder or muxponder client and trunk ports are in a regenerator group, the cards are in  
transparent mode, and DCC/GCC termination is not available.

Optical ports have the following requirements when used in a provisionable patchcord:  
An optical port connected to transponder/muxponder port or add/drop multiplexer or  
multiplexer/demultiplexer port requires an SDCC/LDCC termination.  
If the optical port is the protection port in a 1+1 group, the working port must have an SDCC/LDCC  
termination provisioned.  
If the remote end of a patchcord is Y-cable protected or is an add/drop multiplexer or  
multiplexer/demultiplexer port, an optical port requires two patchcords.  
Transponder and muxponder ports have the following requirements when used in a provisionable  
patchcord:  
Two patchcords are required when a transponder/muxponder port is connected to an add/drop  
multiplexer or multiplexer/demultiplexer port. CTC automatically prompts the user to set up the  
second patchcord.  
If a patchcord is on a client port in a regenerator group, the other end of the patchcord must be on  
the same node and on a port within the same regenerator group.  
A patchcord is allowed on a client port only if the card is in transparent mode.  
DWDM cards support provisionable patchcords only on optical channel ports. Each DWDM optical  
channel port can have only one provisionable patchcord.  
Note  
For TXP, MXP, and DWDM card information, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and  
Operations Guide.

12.6 Open GNE  
The ONS 15454 SDH can communicate with non-ONS nodes that do not support point-to-point protocol  
(PPP) vendor extensions or OSPF type 10 opaque link-state advertisements (LSA), both of which are  
necessary for automatic node and link discovery. An open GNE configuration allows the DCC-based  
network to function as an IP network for non-ONS nodes.  
To configure an open GNE network, you can provision SDCC, LDCC, and GCC terminations to include  
a far-end, non-ONS node using either the default IP address of 0.0.0.0 or a specified IP address. You  
provision a far-end, non-ONS node by checking the “Far End is Foreign” check box during SDCC,  
LDCC, and GCC creation. The default 0.0.0.0 IP address allows the far-end, non-ONS node to provide  
the IP address; if you set an IP address other than 0.0.0.0, a link is established only if the far-end node  
identifies itself with that IP address, providing an extra level of security.  
By default, the proxy server only allows connections to discovered ONS peers and the firewall blocks  
all IP traffic between the DCC network and LAN. You can, however, provision proxy tunnels to allow  
up to 12 additional destinations for SOCKS version 5 connections to non-ONS nodes. You can also  
provision firewall tunnels to allow up to 12 additional destinations for direct IP connectivity between the  
DCC network and LAN. Proxy and firewall tunnels include both a source and destination subnet. The  
connection must originate within the source subnet and terminate within the destination subnet before  
either the SOCKS connection or IP packet flow is allowed.  
To set up proxy and firewall subnets in CTC, use the Provisioning > Network > Proxy and Firewalls  
subtabs. The availability of proxy and/or firewall tunnels depends on the network access settings of the  
node:  
If the node is configured with the proxy server enabled in GNE or ENE mode, you must set up a  
proxy tunnel and/or a firewall tunnel.  
If the node is configured with the proxy server enabled in proxy-only mode, you can set up proxy  
tunnels. Firewall tunnels are not allowed.  
If the node is configured with the proxy server disabled, neither proxy tunnels or firewall tunnels  
are allowed.  
Figure 12-18 shows an example of a foreign node connected to the DCC network. Proxy and firewall  
tunnels are useful in this example because the GNE would otherwise block IP access between the PC  
and the foreign node.

13.1 Overview  
CTC detects and reports SDH alarms generated by the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH and the larger SDH  
network. You can use CTC to monitor and manage alarms at the card, node, or network level. Default  
alarm severities conform to the ITU-T G.783 standard, but you can set alarm severities in customized  
alarm profiles or suppress CTC alarm reporting. For a detailed description of the standard ITU-T  
categories employed by Optical Networking System (ONS) nodes, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH  
Troubleshooting Guide.  
Note  
ONS 15454 SDH alarms can also be monitored and managed through a network management system  
(NMS).  
13.2 Documenting Existing Provisioning  
You can use the File > Print or File > Export options to print or export CTC provisioning information  
for record keeping or troubleshooting. The functions can be performed in card, node, or network views.  
The File > Print function sends the data to a local or network printer. File > Export exports the data to a  
file where it can be imported into other computer applications, such as spreadsheets and database  
management programs.

13.3 Viewing Alarm Counts on the LCD for a Node, Slot, or Port  
Whether you choose to print or export data, you can choose from the following options:  
Entire frame—Prints or exports the entire CTC window including the graphical view of the card,  
node, or network. This option is available for all windows.  
Tabbed view—Prints or exports the lower half of the CTC window containing tabs and data. The  
printout includes the selected tab (on top) and the data shown in the tab window. For example, if you  
print the History window tabbed view, you print only history items appearing in the window. This  
option is available for all windows.  
Table Contents—Prints CTC data in table format without graphical representations of shelves,  
cards, or tabs. This option applies to all windows except:  
Provisioning > General > General and Power Monitor windows  
Provisioning > Network > General and RIP windows  
Provisioning > Security > Policy, Access, and Legal Disclaimer windows  
Provisioning > SNMP window  
Provisioning > Timing window  
Provisioning > UCP > Node window  
Provisioning > WDM-ANS > Provisioning window  
Maintenance > Cross-Connect > Cards window  
Maintenance > Database window  
Maintenance > Diagnostic window  
Maintenance > Protection window  
Maintenance > Timing > Source window  
The Table Contents option prints all the data contained in a table with the same column headings.  
For example, if you print the History window Table Contents view, you print all data included in the  
table whether or not items appear in the window.  
The above windows are not available for Export.  
13.3 Viewing Alarm Counts on the LCD for a Node, Slot, or Port  
You can view node, slot, or port-level alarm counts and summaries using the buttons on the  
ONS 15454 SDH LCD panel. The Slot and Port buttons toggle between display types; the Slot button  
toggles between node display and slot display, and the Port button toggles between slot and port views.  
Pressing the Status button after you choose the display mode changes the display from alarm count to  
alarm summary.  
The ONS 15454 SDH has a one-button update for some commonly viewed alarm counts. If you press  
the Slot button once and then wait eight seconds, the display automatically changes from a slot alarm  
count to a slot alarm summary. If you press the Port button to toggle to port-level display, you can use  
the Port button to toggle to a specific slot and to view each port’s port-level alarm count. Figure 13-1  
shows the LCD panel layout.

13.4 Viewing Alarms  
In the card-, node-, or network-level CTC view, click the Alarms tab to display the alarms for that card,  
node, or network. The Alarms window shows alarms in conformance with ITU-T G.783. This means that  
if a network problem causes two alarms, such as loss of frame (LOF) and loss of signal (LOS), CTC only  
shows the LOS alarm in this window because it supersedes the LOF and replaces it.  
The Path Width column in the Alarms and Conditions tabs expands upon alarmed object information  
contained in the access identifier string (such as “VC4-6-1-6”) by giving the number of VC-4s contained  
in the alarmed path. For example, the Path Width will tell you whether a Critical alarm applies to a VC-4  
(where the column will show 1) or a VC-12 (where the column will show 3). If the path contains a  
smaller circuit size than VC-4, the column is empty.  
Table 13-1 lists the column headings and the information recorded in each column.

Major and Minor alarms may appear yellow in CTC under certain circumstances. This is not due to a  
CTC problem but to a workstation memory and color utilization problem. For example, a workstation  
might run out of colors if many color-intensive applications are running. When using Netscape, you can  
limit the number of colors used by launching it from the command line with either the -install option or  
the -ncols 32 option.  
In network view, CTC identifies STM and VC alarm objects based upon the object IDs. Table 13-3 lists  
the object numbering schemes for the MON (such as HPMon and LPMon) and TERM (such as HPTerm  
and LPTerm) objects.

13.4.1 Viewing Alarms With Each Node’s Time Zone  
By default, alarms and conditions are displayed with the time stamp of the CTC workstation where you  
are viewing them. But you can set the node to report alarms (and conditions) using the time zone where  
the node is located by clicking Edit > Preferences, and clicking the Display Events Using Each Node’s  
Timezone check box.  
13.4.2 Controlling Alarm Display  
You can control the display of the alarms shown on the Alarms window. Table 13-4 shows the actions  
you can perform in the Alarms window.  
Table 13-4  
Alarm Display  
Button/Check Box/Tool  
Action  
Filter button  
Allows you to change the display on the Alarms window to show only  
alarms that meet a certain severity level, occur in a specified time frame,  
and/or reflect specific conditions. For example, you can set the filter so that  
only Critical alarms display on the window.  
If you enable the Filter feature by clicking the Filter button in one CTC  
view, such as node view, it is enabled in the other views as well (card view  
and network view).  
Synchronize button  
Updates the alarm display. Although CTC displays alarms in real time, the  
Synchronize button allows you to verify the alarm display. This is  
particularly useful during provisioning or troubleshooting.  
Delete Cleared Alarms  
button  
Deletes alarms that have been cleared.  
AutoDelete Cleared  
Alarms check box  
If checked, CTC automatically deletes cleared alarms.  
Filter tool  
Enables or disables alarm filtering in the card, node, or network view. When  
enabled or disabled, this state applies to other views for that node and for  
all other nodes in the network. For example, if the Filter tool is enabled in  
the node (default login) view Alarms window, the network view Alarms  
window and card view Alarms window also have the tool enabled. All other  
nodes in the network also have the tool enabled.  
13.4.3 Filtering Alarms  
The alarm display can be filtered to prevent display of alarms with certain severities or alarms that  
occurred between certain dates. You can set the filtering parameters by clicking the Filter button at the  
bottom-left of the Alarms window. You can turn the filter on or off by clicking the Filter tool at the  
bottom-right of the window. CTC retains your filter activation setting. For example, if you turn the filter  
on and then log out, CTC keeps the filter active the next time your user ID is activated.

13.4.5 Conditions Tab  
13.4.5 Conditions Tab  
The Conditions window displays retrieved fault conditions. A condition is a fault or status detected by  
ONS 15454 SDH hardware or software. When a condition occurs and continues for a minimum period,  
CTC raises a condition, which is a flag showing that this particular condition currently exists on the  
ONS 15454 SDH.  
The Conditions window shows all conditions that occur, including those that are superseded. For  
instance, if a network problem causes two alarms, such as LOF and LOS, CTC shows both the LOF and  
LOS conditions in this window (even though LOS supersedes LOF). Having all conditions visible can  
be helpful when troubleshooting the ONS 15454 SDH. If you want to retrieve conditions that obey a  
root-cause hierarchy (that is, LOS supersedes and replaces LOF), you can exclude the same root causes  
by checking a check box in the window.  
Fault conditions include reported alarms and Not Reported or Not Alarmed conditions. Refer to the  
trouble notifications information in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide for more  
information about alarm and condition classifications.  
13.4.6 Controlling the Conditions Display  
You can control the display of the conditions on the Conditions window. Table 13-5 shows the actions  
you can perform in the window.  
Table 13-5

Action  
Retrieve  
Retrieves the current set of all existing fault conditions, as maintained by  
the alarm manager, from the ONS 15454 SDH.  
Filter  
Allows you to change the Conditions window display to only show the  
conditions that meet a certain severity level or occur in a specified time. For  
example, you can set the filter so that only Critical conditions display on the  
window.  
Note  
There is a Filter button on the lower-right of the window that allows  
you to enable or disable the filter feature.  
Exclude Same Root  
Cause  
Retrieves conditions that obey a root-cause hierarchy (for example, LOS  
supersedes and replaces LOF).  
13.4.6.1 Retrieving and Displaying Conditions  
The current set of all existing conditions maintained by the alarm manager can be seen when you click  
the Retrieve button. The set of conditions retrieved is relative to the view. For example, if you click the  
button while displaying the node view, node-specific conditions are displayed. If you click the button  
while displaying the network view, all conditions for the network (including ONS 15454 SDH nodes and  
other connected nodes) are displayed, and the card view shows only card-specific conditions.  
You can also set a node to display conditions using the time zone where the node is located, rather than  
the time zone of the PC where they are being viewed. See the “13.4.1 Viewing Alarms With Each Node’s  
Time Zone” section on page 13-5 for more information.

The condition display can be filtered to prevent display of conditions (including alarms) with certain  
severities or that occurred between certain dates. You can set the filtering parameters by clicking the  
Filter button at the bottom-left of the Conditions window. You can turn the filter on or off by clicking  
the Filter tool at the bottom-right of the window. CTC retains your filter activation setting. For example,  
if you turn the filter on and then log out, CTC keeps the filter active the next time you log in.  
13.4.7 Viewing History  
The History window displays historic alarm or condition data for the node or for your login session. You  
can chose to display only alarm history, only events, or both by checking check boxes in the History >  
Node window. You can view network-level alarm and condition history, such as for circuits, at that level.  
At the node level, you can see all port (facility), card, STS, and system-level history entries. For example,  
protection-switching events or performance-monitoring threshold crossings appear here. If you  
double-click a card, you can view all port, card, and STS alarm or condition history that directly affects  
the card.  
The ONS 15454 SDH can store up to 640 Critical alarm messages, 640 Major alarm messages, 640  
Minor alarm messages, and 640 condition messages. When any of these limits is reached, the  
ONS 15454 SDH discards the oldest events in that category.

Note  
In the Preference dialog General tab, the Maximum History Entries value only applies to the Session  
window.  
Different views of CTC display the following kinds of history:  
The History > Session window is shown in network view, node view, and card view. It shows alarms  
and conditions that occurred during the current user CTC session.  
The History > Node window is only shown in node view. It shows the alarms and conditions that  
occurred on the node since CTC software was operated on the node.  
The History > Card window is only shown in card view. It shows the alarms and conditions that  
occurred on the card since CTC software was installed on the node.  
Tip  
Double-click an alarm in the History window to display the corresponding view. For example,  
double-clicking a card alarm takes you to card view. In network view, double-clicking a node alarm takes  
you to node view.  
If you check the History window Alarms check box, you display the node history of alarms. If you check  
the Events check box, you display the node history of Not Alarmed and transient events (conditions). If  
you check both check boxes, you retrieve node history for both.

13.5 Alarm Severities  
13.4.7.2 Retrieving and Displaying Alarm and Condition History  
You can retrieve and view the history of alarms and conditions, as well as transients (passing  
notifications of processes as they occur) in the CTC history window. The information in this window is  
specific to the view where it is shown (that is, network history in the network view, node history in the  
node view, and card history in the card view).  
The node and card history views are each divided into two tabs. In node view, when you click the  
Retrieve button, you can see the history of alarms, conditions, and transients that have occurred on the  
node in the History > Node window, and the history of alarms, conditions, and transients that have  
occurred on the node during your login session in the History > Session window. In the card-view history  
window, after you retrieve the card history, you can see the history of alarms, conditions, and transients  
on the card in the History > Card window, or a history of alarms, conditions, and transients that have  
occurred during your login session in the History > Session window. You can also filter the severities  
and occurrence period in these history windows.  
13.5 Alarm Severities  
ONS 15454 SDH alarm severities follow the ITU-T G.783 standard, so a condition might be Alarmed  
(at a severity of Critical [CR], Major [MJ], or Minor [MN]), Not Alarmed (NA) or Not Reported (NR).  
These severities are reported in the CTC software Alarms, Conditions, and History windows at all levels:  
network, shelf, and card.  
ONS equipment provides a standard profile named Default listing all alarms and conditions with severity  
settings based on ITU-T G.783 and other standards, but users can create their own profiles with different  
settings for some or all conditions and apply these wherever desired. (See the “13.6 Alarm Profiles”  
section on page 13-10.) For example, in a custom alarm profile, the default severity of a carrier loss  
(CARLOSS) alarm on an Ethernet port could be changed from Major to Critical. The profile allows  
setting to Not Reported or Not Alarmed, as well as the three alarmed severities.  
Critical and Major severities are only used for service-affecting alarms. If a condition is set as Critical  
or Major by profile, it will raise as Minor alarm in the following situations:  
In a protection group, if the alarm is on a standby entity (side not carrying traffic)  
If the alarmed entity has no traffic provisioned on it, so no service is lost  
Because of this possibility of being raised at two different levels, the alarm profile pane shows Critical  
as CR / MN and Major as MJ / MN.  
13.6 Alarm Profiles  
The alarm profiles feature allows you to change default alarm severities by creating unique alarm profiles  
for individual ONS 15454 SDH ports, cards, or nodes. A created alarm profile can be applied to any node  
on the network. Alarm profiles can be saved to a file and imported elsewhere in the network, but the  
profile must be stored locally on a node before it can be applied to the node, its cards, or its cards’ ports.  
CTC can store up to ten active alarm profiles at any time to apply to the node. Custom profiles can take  
eight of these active profile positions. Two other profiles, Default profile and Inherited profile, are  
reserved by the NE, and cannot be edited.The reserved Default profile contains ITU-T G.783 severities.  
The reserved Inherited profile allows port alarm severities to be governed by the card-level severities, or  
card alarm severities to be determined by the node-level severities.

Chapter 13 Alarm Monitoring and Management  
13.6.1 Creating and Modifying Alarm Profiles  
If one or more alarm profiles have been stored as files from elsewhere in the network onto the local PC  
or server hard drive where CTC resides, you can utilize as many profiles as you can physically store by  
deleting and replacing them locally in CTC so that only eight are active at any given time.  
13.6.1 Creating and Modifying Alarm Profiles  
Alarm profiles are created in the network view using the Provisioning > Alarm Profiles tabs. A default  
alarm profile following ITU-T G.783 is preprovisioned for every alarm. After loading the default profile  
or another profile on the node, you can use the Clone feature to create custom profiles. After the new  
profile is created, the Alarm Profiles window shows the original profile—frequently Default—and the  
new profile.  
Note  
Note  
Note  
Tip  
The alarm profile list contains a master list of alarms that is used for a mixed node network. Some of  
these alarms might not be used in all ONS nodes.  
The Default alarm profile list contains alarm and condition severities that correspond when applicable  
to default values established in ITU-T G.783.  
All default or user-defined severity settings that are Critical (CR) or Major (MJ) are demoted to Minor  
(MN) in non-service-affecting situations.  
To see the full list of profiles including those available for loading or cloning, click the Available button.  
You must load a profile before you can clone it.  
Note  
Up to ten profiles, including the two reserved profiles—Inherited and Default—can be stored in CTC.  
Wherever it is applied, the Default alarm profile sets severities to standard ITU-T G.783 settings. The  
Inherited profile sets alarm severity to inherited (I) so that alarms inherit, or copy, severities from the  
next-highest level. For example, a card with an Inherited alarm profile copies the severities used by the  
node housing the card. If you choose the Inherited profile from the network view, the severities at the  
lower levels (node and card) be copied from this selection.  
You do not have to apply a single severity profile to the node-, card-, and port-level alarms. Different  
profiles can be applied at different levels. You could use the inherited or default profile on a node and  
on all cards and ports, but apply a custom profile that downgrades an alarm on one particular card. For  
example, you might choose to downgrade an STM-N unequipped path alarm (HP-UNEQ) from Critical  
(CR) to Not Alarmed (NA) on an optical card because this alarm raises and then clears every time you  
create a circuit. HP-UNEQ alarms for the card with the custom profile would not display on the Alarms  
tab. (But they would still be recorded in the Conditions and History tabs.)  
When you modify severities in an alarm profile, the following rules apply:  
All Critical (CR) or Major (MJ) default or user-defined severity settings are demoted to Minor (MN)  
in Non-Service-Affecting (NSA) situations.  
Default severities are used for all alarms and conditions until you create a new profile and apply it.

13.6.6 Applying Alarm Profiles  
In CTC node view, the Alarm Behavior window displays alarm profiles for the node. In card view, the  
Alarm Behavior window displays the alarm profiles for the selected card. Alarm profiles form a  
hierarchy. A node-level alarm profile applies to all cards in the node except cards that have their own  
profiles. A card-level alarm profile applies to all ports on the card except ports that have their own  
profiles.  
At the node level, you can apply profile changes on a card-by-card basis or set a profile for the entire  
node. At the card-level view, you can apply profile changes on a port-by-port basis or set alarm profiles  
for all ports on that card. Figure 13-4 shows the OPT-BST card view of an alarm profile.

13.7 Suppressing Alarms  
ONS 15454 SDH nodes have an alarm suppression option that clears raised alarm messages for the node,  
chassis, one or more slots (cards), or one or more ports. After they are cleared, these alarms change  
appearance from their normal severity color to white and they can be cleared from the display by clicking  
Synchronize. Alarm suppression itself raises an alarm called AS-CMD that is shown in applicable  
Alarms windows. Node-level suppression is shown in the node view Alarms window, and card or  
port-level suppression is shown in all views. The AS-CMD alarm itself is not cleared by the suppress  
command. Each instance of this alarm indicates its object separately in the Object column.  
A suppression command applied at a higher level does not supersede a command applied at a lower level.  
For example, applying a node-level alarm suppression command makes all raised alarms for the node  
appear to be cleared, but it does not cancel card-level or port-level suppression. Each of these conditions  
can exist independently and must be cleared independently.  
Suppression causes the entity alarm to behave like a Not Reported event. This means that the alarms,  
having been suppressed from view in the Alarms window, are now only shown in the Conditions window.  
The suppressed alarms are displayed with their usual visual characteristics (service-affecting status and  
color-coding) in the window. The alarms still appear in the History window.  
Note  
Use alarm suppression with caution. If multiple CTC sessions are open, suppressing the alarms in one  
session suppresses the alarms in all other open sessions.

13.8 Provisioning External Alarms and Controls  
External alarm inputs can be provisioned on the Alarm Interface Controller-International (AIC-I) card  
for external sensors such as an open door and flood sensors, temperature sensors, and other  
environmental conditions. External control outputs on this card allow you to drive external visual or  
audible devices such as bells and lights. They can control other devices such as generators, heaters, and  
fans.  
You provision external alarms in the AIC-I card view Provisioning > Card > External Alarms tab.  
Provision controls in the AIC-I card view Provisioning > Card > External Controls tab. Up to 16 external  
alarm inputs and 4 external controls are available with the AIC-I card.  
13.8.1 External Alarm Input  
You can provision each alarm input separately. Provisionable characteristics of external alarm inputs  
include:  
Alarm type, from a list of possibilities in a drop-down list  
Alarm severity (CR, MJ, MN, NA, and NR)  
Alarm-trigger setting (open or closed): Open means that the normal condition is no current flowing  
through the contact, and the alarm is generated when current does flow; closed means that normal  
condition is to have current flowing through the contact, and the alarm is generated with current  
stops flowing.  
Virtual wire associated with the alarm  
CTC alarm log description (up to 63 characters)  
Note  
Note  
If you provision an external alarm to raise upon an open contact before you physically connect  
to the ONS equipment, the alarm will raise until you do create the physical connection.  
When you provision an external alarm, the alarm object is ENV-IN-nn. The variable nn refers to  
the external alarm’s number, regardless of the name you assign.  
13.8.2 External Control Output  
You can provision each alarm output separately. Provisionable characteristics of alarm outputs include:  
Control type  
Trigger type (alarm or virtual wire)  
Description for CTC display  
Closure setting (manually or by trigger). If you provision the output closure to be triggered, the  
following characteristics can be used as triggers:  
Local NE alarm severity—A chosen alarm severity (for example, Major) and any  
higher-severity alarm (in this case, Critical) causes output closure.  
Remote NE alarm severity—Similar to local NE alarm severity trigger setting, but applies to  
remote alarms.

13.9 Audit Trail  
Virtual wire entities—You can provision an alarm that is input to a virtual wire to trigger an  
external control output.  
13.9 Audit Trail  
The ONS 15454 SDH maintains an audit trail log that resides on the TCC2/TCC2P. This record shows  
who has accessed the system and what operations were performed during a given time period. The log  
includes authorized Cisco logins and logouts using the operating system command line interface, Cisco  
Transport Controller (CTC), and TL1; the log also includes FTP actions, circuit creation/deletion, and  
user/system generated actions.  
Event monitoring is also recorded in the audit log. An event is defined as the change in status of an  
element within the network. External events, internal events, attribute changes, and software  
upload/download activities are recorded in the audit trail.  
Audit trails are useful for maintaining security, recovering lost transactions and enforcing accountability.  
Accountability is the ability to trace user activities by associating a process or action with a specific user.  
To view the audit trail log, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide. to view the audit trail  
record. Any management interface (CTC, CTM, TL1) can access the audit trail logs.  
The audit trail is stored in persistent memory and is not corrupted by processor switches, resets or  
upgrades. However, if the TCC2/TCC2Ps are removed, the audit trail log is lost.  
13.9.1 Audit Trail Log Entries  
Audit trail records capture the following activities:  
User—Name of the user performing the action  
Host—Host from where the activity is logged  
Device ID—IP address of the device involved in the activity  
Application—Name of the application involved in the activity  
Task—Name of the task involved in the activity (View a dialog, apply configuration and so on)  
Connection Mode—Telnet, Console, SNMP  
Category—Type of change; Hardware, Software, Configuration  
Status—Status of the user action (Read, Initial, Successful, Timeout, Failed)  
Time—Time of change  
Message Type—Denotes if the event is Success/Failure type  
Message Details—A description of the change  
13.9.2 Audit Trail Capacities  
The system is able to store 640 log entries.When this limit is reached, the oldest entries are overwritten  
with new events.  
When the log server is 80 percent full, an AUD-LOG-LOW condition is raised and logged (by way of  
CORBA/CTC).

Ethernet Operation  
The Cisco ONS 15454 SDH integrates Ethernet into an SDH time-division multiplexing (TDM)  
platform. The ONS 15454 SDH supports E-Series, G-Series, and ML-Series Ethernet cards. This chapter  
covers the operation of the E-Series and G-Series Ethernet cards. For information on the ML-Series  
cards, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SONET/SDH ML-Series Multilayer Ethernet Card Software Feature  
and Configuration Guide. For Ethernet card specifications, see Chapter 5, “Ethernet Cards.” For  
Ethernet circuit procedures, refer to the “Create Circuits and Low-Order Tunnels” chapter of the  
14.6 Remote Monitoring Specification Alarm Thresholds, page 14-23  
14.1 G-Series Application  
The G-Series cards (G1000-4/G1K-4) reliably transport Ethernet and IP data across an SDH backbone.  
The G-Series cards map up to four Gigabit Ethernet interfaces onto an SDH transport network and  
provide scalable and provisionable transport bandwidth at signal levels up to VC4-16C per card. The  
G-Series cards provide line rate forwarding for all Ethernet frames (unicast, multicast, and broadcast)  
and can be configured to support Jumbo frames (defined as a maximum of 10,000 bytes). The G-Series  
cards incorporate features optimized for carrier-class applications such as:  
High Availability (including hitless [< 50 ms] performance under software upgrades and all types of  
SONET/SDH equipment protection switches)  
Hitless reprovisioning  
Support of Gigabit Ethernet traffic at full line rate  
Serviceability options including enhanced port states, terminal and facility loopback, and J1 path  
trace  
SDH-style alarm support  
Ethernet performance monitoring (PM) and remote monitoring (RMON) functions

14.1.1 G1K-4 and G1000-4 Comparison  
REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL  
The G-Series cards allow an Ethernet private line service to be provisioned and managed very much like  
a traditional SDH or SONET line. G-Series card applications include providing carrier-grade transparent  
LAN services (TLS), 100 Mbps Ethernet private line services (when combined with an external 100-Mb  
Ethernet switch with Gigabit uplinks), and high-availability transport.  
The card maps a single Ethernet port to a single STM circuit. You can independently map the four ports  
on the G-Series card to any combination of VC4, VC4-2c, VC4-3c, VC4-4c, VC4-8c, and VC4-16C  
circuit sizes, provided the sum of the circuit sizes that terminate on a card do not exceed VC4-16C.  
To support a Gigabit Ethernet port at full line rate, an STM circuit with a capacity greater or equal to  
1 Gbps (bidirectional 2 Gbps) is needed. A VC4-8c is the minimum circuit size that can support a  
Gigabit Ethernet port at full line rate. The G-Series card supports a maximum of two ports at full line  
rate.  
The G-Series transmits and monitors the SDH J1 Path Trace byte in the same manner as  
ONS 15454 SDH STM-N cards. For more information, see the “10.9 Path Trace” section on page 10-15.  
Note  
G-Series encapsulation is standard high-level data link control (HDLC) framing over SONET/SDH as  
described in RFC 1622 and RFC 2615 with the point-to-point protocol (PPP) field set to the value  
specified in RFC 1841.  
14.1.1 G1K-4 and G1000-4 Comparison  
The G1K-4 and the G1000-4 cards constitute the ONS 15454 SDH G-Series and are hardware  
equivalents. Software releases prior to R4.0 identify both the G1000-4 and the G1K-4 as G1000-4 cards  
when they are physically installed. Software R4.0 and later identify G1K-4 cards correctly (that is, as  
GIK-4 cards) when they are physically installed.  
14.1.2 G-Series Example  
Figure 14-1 shows an example of a G-Series application. In this example, data traffic from the Gigabit  
Ethernet port of a high-end router travels across the ONS 15454 SDH point-to-point circuit to the Gigabit  
Ethernet port of another high-end router.

The G-Series card carries any Layer 3 protocol that can be encapsulated and transported over Gigabit  
Ethernet, such as IP or IPX. The data is transmitted on the Gigabit Ethernet fiber into a standard Gigabit  
Interface Converter (GBIC) on a G-Series card. The G-Series card transparently maps Ethernet frames  
into the SDH payload by multiplexing the payload onto an SDH STM-N card. When the SDH payload  
reaches the destination node, the process is reversed and the data is transmitted from the standard Cisco  
GBIC in the destination G-Series card onto the Gigabit Ethernet fiber.

14.1.3 IEEE 802.3z Flow Control and Frame Buffering  
REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL  
The G-Series card discards certain types of erroneous Ethernet frames rather than transport them over  
SDH. Erroneous Ethernet frames include corrupted frames with cyclic redundancy checking (CRC)  
errors and under-sized frames that do not conform to the minimum 64-byte length Ethernet standard. The  
G-Series card forwards valid frames unmodified over the SDH network. Information in the headers is  
not affected by the encapsulation and transport. For example, packets with formats that include IEEE  
802.1Q information will travel through the process unaffected.  
14.1.3 IEEE 802.3z Flow Control and Frame Buffering  
The G-Series supports IEEE 802.3z flow control and frame buffering to reduce data traffic congestion.  
To prevent over-subscription, 512 KB of buffer memory is available for the receive and transmit channels  
on each port. When the buffer memory on the Ethernet port nears capacity, the ONS 15454 SDH uses  
IEEE 802.3z flow control to transmit a pause frame to the source at the opposite end of the Gigabit  
Ethernet connection.  
The pause frame instructs the source to stop sending packets for a specific period of time. The sending  
station waits the requested time before sending more data. Figure 14-1 on page 14-2 illustrates pause  
frames being sent and received by ONS 15454 SDHs and attached switches.  
The G-Series card proposes symmetric flow control when auto negotiating flow control with attached  
Ethernet devices. Symmetric flow control allows the G-Series to respond to pause frames sent from  
external devices and to send pause frames to external devices. Prior to Software R4.0, flow control on  
the G-Series card was asymmetric, meaning the card sent pause frames and discarded received pause  
frames.  
This flow-control mechanism matches the sending and receiving device throughput to that of the  
bandwidth of the STM circuit. For example, a router might transmit to the Gigabit Ethernet port on the  
G-Series card. This particular data rate may occasionally exceed 622 Mbps, but the ONS 15454 SDH  
circuit assigned to the G-Series port might be only VC4-4c (622.08 Mbps). In this example, the  
ONS 15454 SDH sends out a pause frame and requests that the router delay its transmission for a certain  
period of time. With flow control and a substantial per-port buffering capability, a private line service  
provisioned at less than full line rate capacity (VC4-8c) is efficient because frame loss can be controlled  
to a large extent.  
The G-Series has flow control threshold provisioning, which allows a user to select one of three  
watermark (buffer size) settings: default, low latency or custom. Default is the best setting for general  
use and was the only setting available prior to Software R4.1. Low latency is good for sub-rate  
applications, such as VoIP. For attached devices with insufficient buffering, best effort traffic or long  
access line lengths, set the G-Series card to a higher latency.  
The custom setting allows you to specify an exact buffer size threshold for Flow Ctrl Lo and Flow Ctrl  
Hi. The flow control high setting is the watermark for sending the “Pause On” frame to the attached  
Ethernet device; this frame signals the device to temporarily stop transmitting. The flow control low  
setting is the watermark for sending the “Pause Off” frame, which signals the device to resume  
transmitting.  
Note  
Note  
External Ethernet devices with auto-negotiation configured to interoperate with G-Series cards running  
releases prior to R4.0 do not need to change auto-negotiation settings when interoperating with G-Series  
cards running R4.0 and later.  
With a G-Series card, you can only enable flow control on a port if auto negotiation is enabled on the  
device attached to that port.

14.1.4 Ethernet Link Integrity Support  
REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL  
14.1.4 Ethernet Link Integrity Support  
The G-Series supports end-to-end Ethernet link integrity (Figure 14-2). This capability is integral to  
providing an Ethernet private line service and correct operation of Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocols on the  
attached Ethernet devices. End-to-end Ethernet link integrity essentially means that if any part of the  
end-to-end path fails, the entire path fails. Failure of the entire path is ensured by turning off the transmit  
lasers at each end of the path. The attached Ethernet devices recognize the disabled transmit laser as a  
loss of carrier and consequently as an inactive link.

Note  
Some network devices can be configured to ignore a loss- of-carrier condition. If a device configured to  
ignore a loss-of-carrier condition attaches to a G-Series card at one end, alternative techniques (such as  
use of Layer 2 or Layer 3 keep-alive messages) are required to route traffic around failures. The response  
time of such alternate techniques is typically much longer than techniques that use link state as  
indications of an error condition.  
As shown in Figure 14-2, a failure at any point of the path causes the G-Series card at each end to disable  
its Tx transmit laser, which causes the devices at both ends to detect a link down. If one of the Ethernet  
ports is administratively disabled or set in loopback mode, the port is considered a “failure” for the  
purposes of end-to-end link integrity because the end-to-end Ethernet path is unavailable. The port  
“failure” also disables both ends of the path.  
14.1.5 Gigabit EtherChannel/IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation  
The end-to-end Ethernet link integrity feature can be used in combination with Gigabit EtherChannel  
capability on attached devices. The combination provides an Ethernet traffic restoration scheme that has  
a faster response time than alternate techniques such as spanning tree rerouting, yet is more bandwidth  
efficient because spare bandwidth does not need to be reserved.  
The G-Series supports all forms of link aggregation technologies including Gigabit EtherChannel  
(GEC), which is a Cisco proprietary standard, and the IEEE 802.3ad standard. The end-to-end link  
integrity feature of the G-Series allows a circuit to emulate an Ethernet link. This allows all types of  
Layer 2 and Layer 3 rerouting to work correctly with the G-Series. Figure 14-3 illustrates G-Series GEC  
support.

SDH  
Although the G-Series card does not actively run GEC, it supports the end-to-end GEC functionality of  
attached Ethernet devices. If two Ethernet devices running GEC connect through G-Series cards to an  
ONS 15454 SDH network, the ONS 15454 SDH side network is transparent to the EtherChannel devices.  
The EtherChannel devices operate as if they are directly connected to each other. Any combination of  
G-Series parallel circuit sizes can be used to support GEC throughput.  
GEC provides line-level active redundancy and protection (1:1) for attached Ethernet equipment. It can  
also bundle parallel G-Series data links together to provide more aggregated bandwidth. STP operates  
as if the bundled links are one link and permits GEC to utilize these multiple parallel paths. Without  
GEC, STP permits only a single non blocked path. GEC can also provide G-Series card-level protection  
or redundancy because it can support a group of ports on different cards (or different nodes) so that if  
one port or card has a failure, traffic is rerouted over the other port or card.  
14.2 G-Series Gigabit Ethernet Transponder Mode  
The G-Series card can be configured as a transponder. Transponder mode can be used with any G-Series  
supported GBIC (SX, LX, ZX, coarse wavelength division multiplexing [CWDM], or dense wavelength  
division multiplexing [DWDM]). Figure 14-4 shows a card-level overview of a transponder mode

A G-Series card configured as a transponder operates quite differently than a G-Series card configured  
for SDH. In an SDH configuration, the G-Series card receives and transmits Gigabit Ethernet traffic from  
the Ethernet ports and GBICs on the front of the card. This Ethernet traffic is multiplexed on and off the  
SDH network through the cross-connect card and the OC-N card (Figure 14-5).

A G-Series card can either be configured for transponding mode or as the SDH default. Once any port  
is provisioned in transponding mode, the card is in transponding mode and no SDH circuits can be  
configured until every port on the card goes back to SDH mode. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH  
Procedure Guide for instructions on how to provision G-Series ports for transponder mode.  
All SDH circuits must be deleted before a G-Series card can be configured in transponding mode. An  
ONS 15454 SDH can host the card in any of the twelve traffic slots on the ONS 15454 SDH and supports  
a maximum of 24 bidirectional or 48 unidirectional lambdas.  
A G-Series card configured as a transponder can be in one of three modes:  
Two-port bidirectional transponding mode  
One-port bidirectional transponding mode  
Two-port unidirectional transponding mode  
14.2.1 Two-Port Bidirectional Transponder  
Two-port bidirectional transponder mode maps the transmitted and received Ethernet frames of one  
G-Series card port into the transmit and receive of another port (Figure 14-6). Transponder bidirectional  
port mapping can be between any two ports on the same card.

14.2.2 One-Port Bidirectional Transponder  
One-port bidirectional transponder mode maps the Ethernet frames received at a port out the transmitter  
of the same port (Figure 14-7). This mode is similar to two-port bidirectional transponder mode except  
that a port is mapped only to itself instead of to another port. Although the data path of the one port  
bidirectional transponder mode is identical to that of a facility loopback, the transponding mode is not a  
maintenance mode and does not suppress non-SDH alarms, such as loss of carrier (CARLOSS).  
This mode can be used for intermediate DWDM signal regeneration and to take advantage of the wide  
band capability of the CWDM and DWDM GBICs, which allows the node to receive on multiple

Ethernet frames received at one port’s receiver will be transmitted out the transmitter of another port.  
This mode is similar to two-port bidirectional transponder mode except only one direction is used  
(Figure 14-8). One port must be provisioned as unidirectional transmit only and the other port must be  
provisioned as unidirectional receive. The port configured as unidirectional transmit ignores any missing  
signals on the receive port, so the receive port fiber does not need not be connected. The port configured  
as unidirectional receive does not turn on the transmit laser so the transmit port fiber does not need to be  
connected.  
This mode can be used when only one direction needs to be transmitted over CWDM/DWDM, for  
example certain video-on-demand (VoD) applications.

14.2.4 G-Series Transponder Mode Characteristics  
The operation of a G-Series card in transponder mode differs from a G-Series card in SDH mode in  
several ways:  
A G-Series card set to transponder mode will not show up in the CTC list of provisionable cards  
when the user is provisioning an SDH circuit.  
G-Series cards set to transponder mode do not require cross-connect cards (for example, the  
XC10G), but do require TCC2 cards.  
G-Series ports configured as transponders do not respond to flow control pause frames and pass the  
pause frames transparently through the card. In SDH mode, ports can respond to pause frames and  
do not pass the pause frames through the card.  
All SDH-related alarms are suppressed when a card is set in transponding mode.  
There are no slot number or cross-connect restrictions for G1000-4 or G1K-4 cards in transponder  
mode.  
Facility and terminal loopbacks are not fully supported in unidirectional transponding mode but are  
supported in both bidirectional transponding modes.  
Ethernet autonegotiation is not supported and cannot be provisioned in unidirectional transponding  
mode. Autonegotiation is supported in both bidirectional transponding modes.  
No end-to-end link integrity function is available in transponding mode.  
Note  
In normal SDH mode the G-Series cards support an end-to-end link integrity function. This function  
causes an Ethernet or SDH failure to disable and turn the transmitting laser off the corresponding  
mapped Ethernet port. In transponder mode, the loss of signal on an Ethernet port has no impact on the  
transmit signal of the corresponding mapped port.

Chapter 14 Ethernet Operation  
14.3 E-Series Application  
REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL  
The operation of a G-Series card in transponder mode is also similar to the operation of a G-Series card  
in SDH mode:  
G-Series Ethernet statistics are available for ports in both modes.  
Ethernet port level alarms and conditions are available for ports in both modes.  
Jumbo frame and non-jumbo frame operation is the same in both modes.  
Collection, reporting and threshold crossing conditions for all existing counters and performance  
monitoring (PM) parameters are the same in both modes.  
SNMP and RMON support is the same in both modes.  
14.3 E-Series Application  
The E-Series cards incorporate Layer 2 switching, whereas the G-Series card is a straight mapper card.  
E-Series cards in multicard Etherswitch Group or single-card EtherSwitch support virtual local area  
networks (VLANs), IEEE 802.1Q, STP, and IEEE 802.1D. The E-Series card in port-mapped mode  
configures the E-Series card to be a mapper card and disables the Layer 2 functions. An ONS 15454 SDH  
holds a maximum of ten Ethernet cards, and you can insert Ethernet cards in any multipurpose slot.  
14.3.1 E-Series Modes  
An E-Series card operates in one of three modes: Multicard EtherSwitch Group, Single-card  
EtherSwitch, or Port-mapped. Within an ONS 15454 SDH containing multiple E-Series cards, each  
E-Series card can operate in any of the three separate modes. At the Ethernet card view in CTC, click  
the Provisioning > Ether Card tabs to reveal the card modes.  
Note  
Port-mapped mode eliminates issues inherent in other E-Series modes and detailed in the field notice,  
“E-Series Ethernet Line Card Packet Forwarding Limitations.”  
14.3.1.1 E-Series Multicard EtherSwitch Group  
Multicard EtherSwitch Group provisions two or more Ethernet cards to act as a single Layer 2 switch.  
It supports one VC4-3c circuit, two VC4-2c circuits, or six VC4 circuits. Each multicard switch may  
connect up to a total of VC4-3c in SDH circuits. When provisioned as an add or drop node of a shared  
packet ring circuit, the effective bandwidth doubles, supporting VC4-3c in each direction of the ring.  
Figure 14-9 illustrates a multicard EtherSwitch configuration.

Caution  
Whenever you terminate two VC4-2c multicard EtherSwitch circuits on an Ethernet card and later delete  
the first circuit, also delete the remaining VC4-2c circuit before you provision an VC4 circuit to the card.  
If you attempt to create an VC4 circuit after only deleting the first VC4-2c circuit, the VC4 circuit will  
not work, but no alarms will indicate this condition. To avoid this situation, delete the second VC4-2c  
before creating an VC4 circuit.  
14.3.1.2 E-Series Single-Card EtherSwitch  
Single-card EtherSwitch allows each Ethernet card to remain a single switching entity within the  
ONS 15454 SDH shelf. This option allows VC4-4c worth of bandwidth between two Ethernet circuit  
endpoints. Figure 14-10 illustrates a single-card EtherSwitch configuration.

14.3.1.3 Port-Mapped (Linear Mapper)  
Port-mapped mode, also referred to as linear mapper, configures the E-Series card to map a specific  
E-Series Ethernet port to one of the card’s specific STM circuits (Figure 14-11). Port-mapped mode  
ensures Layer 1 transport has low latency for unicast, multicast, and mixed traffic. Ethernet and Fast  
Ethernet on the E100T-G card operate at line-rate speed. Gigabit Ethernet transport is not line rate

because the E1000-2-G has a maximum bandwidth of VC4-4c. Ethernet frame sizes up to 1522 bytes are  
also supported, which allows transport of IEEE 802.1Q tagged frames. The larger maximum frame size  
of Q-in-Q frames (802.1Q in 802.1Q wrapped frames) are not supported.

1:1 Ethernet port to STS/VC circuit mapping  
Port-mapped mode disables Layer 2 functions supported by the E-Series in single-card and multicard  
mode, including STP, VLANs, and MAC address learning. It significantly reduces the service-affecting  
time for cross-connect and TCC2 card switches.  
Port-mapped mode does not support VLANs in the same manner as multicard and single-card mode. The  
ports of E-Series cards in multicard and single-card mode can join specific VLANs. E-Series cards in  
port-mapped mode do not have this Layer 2 capability and only transparently transport external VLANs  
over the mapped connection between ports. An E-Series card in port-mapped mode does not inspect the  
tag of the transported VLAN, so a VLAN range of 1 through 4096 can be transported in port-mapped  
mode.  
Port-mapped mode does not inspect or validate the Ethernet frame header. The Ethernet CRC is  
validated, and any frame with an invalid Ethernet CRC is discarded.  
Port-mapped mode also allows the creation of STM-N circuits between any two E-Series cards; it does  
not allow an E-Series cards to connect to the ML-Series or G-Series cards.  
14.3.2 E-Series IEEE 802.3z Flow Control  
The E100T-G card in any mode and the E1000-G card in port-mapped mode support IEEE 802.3z  
symmetrical flow control and propose symmetric flow control when auto-negotiating with attached  
Ethernet devices. For flow control to operate, both the E-Series port and the attached Ethernet device  
must be set to auto negotiation (AUTO) mode. The attached Ethernet device may also need to have flow  
control enabled. The flow-control mechanism allows the E-Series to respond to pause frames sent from  
external devices and to send pause frames to external devices.  
Flow control matches the sending and receiving device throughput to that of the bandwidth of the  
STM-N circuit. For example, a router might transmit to the Gigabit Ethernet port on the E-Series card  
in port-mapped mode. The data rate transmitted by the router can occasionally exceed 622 Mbps, but the  
ONS 15454 SDH circuit assigned to the E-Series port in port-mapped mode is a maximum of VC4-4c  
(622.08 Mbps). In this scenario, the ONS 15454 SDH sends out a pause frame and requests that the  
router delay its transmission for a certain period of time.

Note  
To enable flow control between an E-Series in port-mapped mode and a SmartBits test set, manually set  
bit 5 of the MII register to 0 on the SmartBits test set. To enable flow control between an E-Series in  
port-mapped mode and an Ixia test set, select Enable the flow control in the Properties menu of the  
attached Ixia port.  
14.3.3 E-Series VLAN Support  
Users can provision up to 509 VLANs per network with the CTC software. Specific sets of ports define  
the broadcast domain for the ONS 15454 SDH. The definition of VLAN ports includes all Ethernet and  
packet-switched SDH port types. All VLAN IP address discovery, flooding, and forwarding is limited to  
these ports.  
The ONS 15454 SDH IEEE 802.1Q-based VLAN mechanism provides logical isolation of subscriber  
LAN traffic over a common SDH transport infrastructure. Each subscriber has an Ethernet port at each  
site, and each subscriber is assigned to a VLAN. Although the subscriber’s VLAN data flows over shared  
circuits, the service appears to the subscriber as a private data transport.  
Note  
Port-mapped mode does not support VLANs.  
The number of VLANs used by circuits and the total number of VLANs available for use appears in CTC  
on the VLAN counter.  
14.3.4 E-Series Q-Tagging (IEEE 802.1Q)  
E-Series cards in single-card and multicard mode support IEEE 802.1Q. IEEE 802.1Q allows the same  
physical port to host multiple IEEE 802.1Q VLANs. Each IEEE 802.1Q VLAN represents a different  
logical network. E-Series cards in port-mapped mode transport IEEE 802.1Q tags (Q-tags), but do not  
remove or add these tags.  
The ONS 15454 SDH works with Ethernet devices that support IEEE 802.1Q and those that do not  
support IEEE 802.1Q. If a device attached to an ONS 15454 SDH Ethernet port does not support  
IEEE 802.1Q, the ONS 15454 SDH uses Q-tags internally only. The ONS 15454 SDH associates these  
Q-tags with specific ports.  
With Ethernet devices that do not support IEEE 802.1Q, the ONS 15454 SDH takes non-tagged Ethernet  
frames that enter the ONS network and uses a Q-tag to assign the packet to the VLAN associated with  
the ONS network’s ingress port. The receiving ONS node removes the Q-tag when the frame leaves the  
ONS network (to prevent older Ethernet equipment from incorrectly identifying the IEEE 8021.Q packet  
as an illegal frame). The ingress and egress ports on the ONS network must be set to Untag for the  
removal to occur. Untag is the default setting for ONS ports. Example 1 in Figure 14-12 illustrates Q-tag  
use only within an ONS network.

Packets enter the ONS network with an existing Q-tag; the ONS 15454 SDH uses this same Q-tag to  
forward the packet within the ONS network and leaves the Q-tag attached when the packet leaves the

occur. Example 2 in Figure 14-12 illustrates the handling of packets that both enter and exit the ONS  
network with a Q-tag.

Procedure Guide.  
Caution  
ONS 15454 SDHs propagate VLANs whenever a node appears on the network view of another node,  
regardless of whether the nodes are in the same SDH network or connect through DCC. For example, if  
two ONS 15454 SDHs without DCC connectivity belong to the same login node group, VLANs  
propagate between the two ONS 15454 SDHs. VLAN propagation happens even though the  
ONS 15454 SDHs do not belong to the same SDH ring.

14.3.5 E-Series Priority Queuing (IEEE 802.1Q)  
REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL  
14.3.5 E-Series Priority Queuing (IEEE 802.1Q)  
Networks without priority queuing handle all packets on a FIFO basis. Priority queuing reduces the  
impact of network congestion by mapping Ethernet traffic to different priority levels. The ONS 15454  
SDH supports priority queuing. The ONS 15454 SDH maps the eight priorities specified in IEEE 802.1Q  
to two queues, low priority and high priority number (Table 14-1).

The ONS 15454 SDH uses a “leaky bucket” algorithm to establish a weighted priority (not a strict  
priority). A weighted priority gives high-priority packets greater access to bandwidth, but does not  
totally preempt low-priority packets. During periods of network congestion, roughly 70 percent of  
bandwidth goes to the high-priority queue and the remaining 30 percent goes to the low-priority queue.  
A network that is too congested will drop packets.

14.3.6 E-Series Spanning Tree (IEEE 802.1D)  
REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL  
Note  
Note  
IEEE 802.1Q was formerly IEEE 802.1P.  
E-Series cards in port-mapped mode and G-Series cards do not support priority queing (IEEE 8021.Q).  
14.3.6 E-Series Spanning Tree (IEEE 802.1D)  
The Cisco ONS 15454 SDH operates Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) according to IEEE 802.1D when an  
Ethernet card is installed. The E-Series card supports common STPs on a per circuit basis up to a total  
of eight STP instances. It does not support per-VLAN STP. In single-card mode, STP can be disabled or  
enabled on a per circuit basis during circuit creation. Disabling STP will preserve the number of  
available STP instances.  
STP operates over all packet-switched ports including Ethernet and STM-N ports. On Ethernet ports,  
STP is enabled by default but can be disabled. A user can also disable or enable STP on a  
circuit-by-circuit basis on unstitched Ethernet cards in a point-to-point configuration. However, turning  
off STP protection on a circuit-by-circuit basis means that the ONS 15454 SDH system is not protecting  
the Ethernet traffic on this circuit, and the Ethernet traffic must be protected by another mechanism in  
the Ethernet network. On STM-N interface ports, the ONS 15454 SDH activates STP by default, and STP  
cannot be disabled.  
The Ethernet card can enable STP on the Ethernet ports to create redundant paths to the attached Ethernet  
equipment. STP connects cards so that both equipment and facilities are protected against failure.  
STP detects and eliminates network loops. When STP detects multiple paths between any two network  
hosts, STP blocks ports until only one path exists between any two network hosts (Figure 14-14). The  
single path eliminates possible bridge loops. This is crucial for shared packet rings, which naturally  
include a loop.  
Figure 14-14  
An STP Blocked Path  
Primary path (forwarding)  
Redundant path (blocked)  
To remove loops, STP defines a tree that spans all the switches in an extended network. STP forces  
certain redundant data paths into a standby (blocked) state. If one network segment in the STP becomes  
unreachable, the STP algorithm reconfigures the STP topology and reactivates the blocked path to  
reestablish the link. STP operation is transparent to end stations, which do not discriminate between  
connections to a single LAN segment or to a switched LAN with multiple segments. The  
ONS 15454 SDH supports one STP instance per circuit and a maximum of eight STP instances per  
ONS 15454 SDH.  
The Circuit window shows forwarding spans and blocked spans on the spanning tree map (Figure 14-15).

14.4 G-Series Circuit Configurations  
REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL  
14.4 G-Series Circuit Configurations  
This section explains G-Series point-to-point circuits and manual cross-connects. Ethernet manual  
cross-connects allow you to cross connect individual Ethernet circuits to an STM-N channel on the  
ONS 15454 SDH optical interface and also to bridge non-ONS SDH network segments.  
14.4.1 G-Series Point-to-Point Ethernet Circuits  
G-Series cards support point-to-point circuit configurations (Figure 14-16). Provisionable circuit sizes  
are VC4, VC4-2c, VC4-3c, VC4-4c, VC4-8c, and VC4-16C. Each Ethernet port maps to a unique  
STM-N circuit of the G-Series card.  
Figure 14-16  
G-Series Point-to-Point Circuit  
ONS Node  
Gigabit Ethernet  
ONS Node  
Gigabit Ethernet  
Point-to-Point Circuit  
The G-Series supports any combination of up to four circuits from the list of valid circuit sizes; however,  
the circuit sizes can add up to no more than VC4-16.  
Because of hardware constraints, the card imposes an additional restriction on the combinations of  
circuits that can be dropped onto a G-Series card. These restrictions are transparently enforced by the  
ONS 15454 SDH, and you do not need to keep track of restricted circuit combinations.  
When a single VC4-8c terminates on a card, the remaining circuits on that card can be another single  
VC4-8c or any combination of circuits of VC4-4c size or less that add up to no more than VC4-4c (that  
is, a total of 12 VC4s on the card).  
If VC4-8c circuits are not being dropped on the card, the full VC4-16 bandwidth can be used with no  
restrictions (for example, using either a single VC4-16C or 4 VC4-4c circuits).  
Note  
The VC4-8c restriction only applies when a single VC4-8c circuit is dropped; therefore, you can easily  
minimize the impact of this restriction. Group the VC4-8c circuits together on a card separate from  
circuits of other sizes. The grouped circuits can be dropped on other G-Series cards on the  
ONS 15454 SDH.  
Caution  
G-Series cards do not connect with E-series cards.  
14.4.2 G-Series Manual Cross-Connects  
ONS 15454 SDHs require end-to-end CTC visibility between nodes for normal provisioning of Ethernet  
circuits. When other vendors’ equipment sits between ONS 15454 SDHs, open system interconnection  
(OSI)/Transient Addressing for Related Processes (TARP)-based equipment does not allow tunneling of  
the ONS 15454 SDH TCP/IP-based DCC. To circumvent inconsistent DCCs, the Ethernet circuit must  
be manually cross connected to an STM channel using the non-ONS network. Manual cross-connects  
allows an Ethernet circuit to run from ONS node to ONS node while utilizing the non-ONS network  
(Figure 14-17).

14.5 E-Series Circuit Configurations  
REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL  
Note  
In this chapter, “cross-connect” and “circuit” have the following meanings: Cross-connect refers to the  
connections that occur within a single ONS 15454 SDH to allow a circuit to enter and exit an  
ONS 15454 SDH. Circuit refers to the series of connections from a traffic source (where traffic enters  
the ONS 15454 SDH network) to the drop or destination (where traffic exits an ONS 15454 SDH  
network).

14.5 E-Series Circuit Configurations  
Ethernet circuits can link ONS nodes through point-to-point (straight), shared packet ring, or hub-and-  
spoke configurations. Two nodes usually connect with a point-to-point configuration. More than two  
nodes usually connect with a shared packet ring configuration or a hub-and-spoke configuration.  
Ethernet manual cross-connects allow you to cross connect individual Ethernet circuits to an STM  
channel on the ONS 15454 SDH optical interface and also to bridge non-ONS SDH network segments.  
For circuit configuration procedures, refer to the “Create Circuits and Low-Order Tunnels” chapter of  
the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
Note  
Note  
Before making Ethernet connections, choose an VC4, VC4-2c, VC4-3c, or VC4-4c circuit size.  
To make an VC4-4c Ethernet circuit, Ethernet cards must be configured in single-card EtherSwitch or  
port-mapped mode. Multicard mode does not support VC4-4c Ethernet circuits.  
14.5.1 Port-Mapped Mode and Single-card EtherSwitch Circuit Scenarios  
Four scenarios exist for provisioning maximum single-card EtherSwitch bandwidth:  
1. VC4-4c  
2. VC4-2c + VC4-2c  
3. VC4-2c + VC4 + VC4  
4. VC4 + VC4 + VC4 + VC4  
Note  
When configuring Scenario 3, the VC4-2c must be provisioned before either of the VC4 circuits.When  
configuring Scenarios 3 and 4, the STM 6c must be provisioned before the smaller STM circuits.

14.5.2 E-Series Point-to-Point Ethernet Circuits  
The ONS 15454 SDH can set up a point-to-point (straight) Ethernet circuit as single-card, port-mapped  
or multicard circuit. Multicard EtherSwitch limits bandwidth to VC4-3c between two Ethernet circuit  
points, but allows adding nodes and cards and making a shared packet ring (Figure 14-18).

REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL  
14.5.3 E-Series Shared Packet Ring Ethernet Circuits  
A shared packet ring allows nodes other than the source and destination nodes to access an Ethernet STM  
circuit. The E-Series card ports on the additional nodes can share the circuit’s VLAN and bandwidth.  
Figure 14-20 illustrates a shared packet ring. Your network architecture may differ from the example.

14.5.4 E-Series Hub-and-Spoke Ethernet Circuit Provisioning  
The hub-and-spoke configuration connects point-to-point circuits (the spokes) to an aggregation point  
(the hub). In many cases, the hub links to a high-speed connection and the spokes are Ethernet cards.  
Figure 14-21 illustrates a hub-and-spoke ring. Your network architecture may differ from the example.

14.5.5 E-Series Ethernet Manual Cross-Connects  
ONS 15454 SDHs require end-to-end CTC visibility between nodes for normal provisioning of Ethernet  
circuits. When other vendors’ equipment sits between ONS 15454 SDHs, OSI/TARP-based equipment  
does not allow tunneling of the ONS 15454 SDH TCP/IP-based DCC. To circumvent inconsistent DCC,  
the Ethernet circuit must be manually cross connected to an STM channel using the non-ONS network.  
The manual cross-connect allows an Ethernet circuit to run from ONS node to ONS node utilizing the  
non-ONS network.  
Note  
In this chapter, “cross-connect” and “circuit” have the following meanings: Cross-connect refers to the  
connections that occur within a single ONS 15454 SDH to allow a circuit to enter and exit an  
ONS 15454 SDH. Circuit refers to the series of connections from a traffic source (where traffic enters  
the ONS 15454 SDH network) to the drop or destination (where traffic exits an ONS 15454 SDH  
network).  
14.6 Remote Monitoring Specification Alarm Thresholds  
The ONS 15454 SDH features remote monitoring (RMON) that allows network operators to monitor the  
health of the network with a network management system (NMS).  
One of the ONS 15454 SDH’s RMON MIBs is the Alarm group, which contains the alarmTable. An  
NMS uses the alarmTable to find the alarm-causing thresholds for network performance. The thresholds  
apply to the current 15-minute interval and the current 24-hour interval. RMON monitors several  
variables, such as Ethernet collisions, and triggers an event when the variable crosses a threshold during  
that time interval. For example, if a threshold is set at 1000 collisions and 1001 collisions occur during  
the 15-minute interval, an event triggers. CTC allows you to provision these thresholds for Ethernet  
Table 14-4 defines the variables you can provision in CTC. For example, to set the collision threshold,  
choose etherStatsCollisions from the Variable menu.

Administrative and Service States  
This appendix describes the administrative and service states for Cisco ONS 15454 SDH cards, ports,  
and cross-connects. For circuit state information, see Chapter 10, “Circuits and Tunnels.” Software  
Release 5.0 states are based on the generic state model defined in Telcordia GR-1093-CORE, Issue 2 and  
ITU-T X.731.  
B.1 Service States  
Service states include a Primary State (PST), a Primary State Qualifier (PSTQ), and one or more  
Secondary States (SST). Table B-1 lists the service state PSTs and PSTQs supported by the  
ONS 15454 SDH.  
Table B-1

The entity is not operational because of an autonomous event.  
The entity is not operational because of an autonomous event and has also  
been manually removed from service.  
Locked-enabled  
The entity has been manually removed from service.  
Table B-2 defines the SSTs supported by the ONS 15454 SDH.  
Table B-2  
ONS 15454 SDH Secondary States  
Secondary State  
Definition  
automaticInService  
The entity is delayed before transitioning to the Unlocked-enabled service  
state. The transition to Unlocked-enabled state depends on correction of  
conditions, or on a soak timer. Alarm reporting is suppressed, but traffic is  
carried. Raised fault conditions, whether or not their alarms are reported, can  
be retrieved on the CTC Conditions tab or by using the TL1 RTRV-COND  
command.  
disabled  
The entity was manually removed from service and does not provide its  
provisioned functions. All services are disrupted; the entity is unable to carry  
traffic.

loopback  
The entity is in loopback mode.  
mismatchOfEquipment An improper card is installed, a cross-connect card does not support an  
installed card, or an incompatible backplane is installed. For example, an  
installed card is not compatible with the card preprovisioning or the slot. This  
SST applies only to cards.  
maintenance  
The entity has been manually removed from service for a maintenance activity  
but still performs its provisioned functions. Alarm reporting is suppressed, but  
traffic is carried. Raised fault conditions, whether or not their alarms are  
reported, can be retrieved on the CTC Conditions tab or by using the TL1  
RTRV-COND command.  
outOfGroup  
The virtual concatenation (VCAT) member cross-connect is not used to carry  
VCAT group traffic. This state is used to put a member circuit out of the group  
and to stop sending traffic. Locked-enabled,outOfGroup only applies to the  
cross-connects on an end node where VCAT resides. The cross-connects on  
intermediate nodes are in the Locked-enabled,maintenance service state.  
softwareDownload  
unassigned  
The card is involved in a software download. This SST applies only to cards.  
The card is not provisioned in the database. This SST applies only to cards.  
notInstalled  
The card is not physically present (that is, an empty slot). This SST applies  
only to cards.  
Administrative states are used to manage service states. Administrative states consist of a PST and an  
SST. Table B-3 lists the administrative states supported by the ONS 15454 SDH. See Table B-2 for SST  
definitions.  
Note  
A change in the administrative state of an entity does not change the service state of supporting or  
supported entities.

B.3.2 Port and Cross-Connect Service State Transitions  
Table B-5 lists the port and cross-connect service state transitions. Port states do not impact  
cross-connect states with one exception. A cross-connect in the Unlocked-disabled,automaticInService  
service state cannot transition autonomously into the Unlocked-enabled service state until the parent port  
is Unlocked-enabled.  
The following ports do not support all of the service states listed in Table B-5:  
E-Series Ethernet ports do not support service states; these ports are either enabled or disabled.  
FC_MR-4 ports support the Unlocked-enabled; Locked-enabled,disabled; and

Network Element Defaults  
This appendix describes the factory-configured (default) network element (NE) settings for the Cisco  
ONS 15454 SDH. It includes descriptions of card, node, and CTC default settings. To import, export, or  
edit the settings, refer to the “Maintain the Node” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure  
Guide. Cards supported by this platform that are not listed in this appendix are not supported by  
factory-configured NE default settings.  
To change card settings individually (that is, without changing the defaults), refer to the “Change Card  
Settings” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide. To change node settings, refer to the  
“Change Node Settings” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.  
C.1 Network Element Defaults Description  
The NE defaults are pre-installed on each Cisco ONS 15454 SDH TCC2 or TCC2P card. They also ship  
as a file called 15454SDH-defaults.txt on the CTC software CD in the event you want to import the  
defaults onto existing TCC2 cards. The NE defaults include card-level, CTC, and node-level defaults.  
Changes made manually using the “Change Card Settings” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH  
Procedure Guide override default settings. If you use the Defaults Editor or import a new defaults file,  
the default changes do not change the settings for cards that are currently installed or slots that are  
pre-provisioned for cards.  
Changes made manually to most node-level default settings (either when you initially turn up a node or  
change node settings later) override the current settings, whether default or provisioned. If you change  
the default settings, using either the Defaults Editor or by importing a new defaults file, the new defaults  
take effect immediately for all settings except those relating to protection (SNCP, MS-SPRing, Linear,  
etc.).  
Note  
Changing the IIOP listener port in the NE defaults requires a reboot of the node in order for the  
default change to occur. Use caution when changing this default setting.  
C.2 Card Default Settings  
The tables in this section list the default settings for each card. Cisco provides settings that are  
pre-provisioned for the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH optical and electrical cards, including:  
Soak Time (all cards) is the length of time that elapses between an AINS port receiving a valid signal  
and when it automatically changes to in-service status.

C.2 Card Default Settings  
Line Coding (E1-42 cards) defines the E-1 transmission coding type that is used.  
Line Length (DS3i) defines the distance (in feet) from the FMEC connection to the next termination  
point.  
Line Type (E1, E1-42, and DS3i cards) defines the type of framing used.  
Port State (all cards) sets the port to one of the four available states (IS, OOS, OOS_MT, or  
OOS_AINS), depending on whether you need ports in or out of service.  
SF BER Level (STM-N, TXP, and MXP cards) defines the signal fail bit error rate.  
SD BER Level (STM-N, TXP, and MXP cards) defines the signal degrade bit error rate.  
Enable Sync Messages (STM-N and MXP cards) enables synchronization status messages (S1 byte),  
which allow the node to choose the best timing source.  
PJ VC4 Mon (STM-N cards) sets the VC4 that will be used for pointer justification. If set to 0, no  
VC4 is monitored.  
VC4 IPPM Enabled (STM-N cards) enables intermediate-path performance monitoring on a node  
for transparent monitoring of a channel that does not terminate on that node.  
Send Do Not Use (STM-N, TXP, and MXP cards) sends a DUS message on the S1 byte when  
enabled.  
Far End Inhibit Loopback (DS3i card) enables DS3i cards to inhibit loopbacks on the far end.  
Payload Type (TXP and MXP cards) defines the type of client signal.  
Termination Mode (TXP and MXP cards) defines the type of termination (line, section, or  
transparent).  
ALS Mode (TXP and MXP cards) sets the automatic laser shutdown feature to one of four available  
states (disabled, auto restart, manual restart, manual restart for test).  
ALS Recovery Interval (TXP and MXP cards) sets the automatic laser shutdown recovery time  
interval.  
ALS Recovery Pulse Width (TXP and MXP cards) set the automatic laser shutdown recovery pulse  
signal width.  
FEC (TXP and MXP cards) enables or disables the FEC monitoring on the optical transport network.  
G.709 OTN (TXP and MXP cards) enables or disables the G.709 monitoring on the optical transport  
network.  
FEC Thresholds (TXP and MXP cards) set the performance monitoring parameters for gathering  
FEC performance data and detecting problems early.  
Optical Thresholds (TXP and MXP cards) set the performance monitoring parameters for gathering  
physical optics performance data and detecting problems early.  
OTN Thresholds (TXP and MXP cards) set the performance monitoring parameters for gathering  
OTN trunk-side performance data and detecting problems early.  
PM Threshold Settings (all cards) set the performance monitoring parameters for gathering  
performance data and detecting problems early.  
Note  
For more information about the performance monitoring parameters, refer to the “Performance  
Monitoring” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide.

C.3 Node Default Settings  
Table C-24 lists the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH node-level default settings for the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH.  
Cisco provides the following types of settings preprovisioned for each Cisco ONS 15454 SDH node:  
SNCP settings determine whether SNCP circuits have SD BER and SF BER monitoring enabled, are  
revertive, and what the reversion time is.  
Craft Access Only allows CTC connectivity to the node only through the craft access port.  
CTC IP Display Suppression prevents display of node IP addresses in CTC.  
Defaults Description lists the current defaults file on the node.  
Enable Firewall enables or disables the use of a firewall for accessing the node.  
Enable Proxy enables or disables the use of a proxy server with the node.  
IIOP Listener Port sets the IIOP listener port number.  
LCD IP Setting sets the node LCD screen to display the node IP address and use the buttons on the  
LCD panel, only display the IP address, or suppress display of the IP address.  
Login Warning Message warns users at the login screen about the possible legal or contractual  
ramifications of accessing equipment, systems, or networks without authorization.  
NTP SNTP Server sets the IP address of the NTP SNTP server to be used with the node.  
Time Zone sets the time zone where the node is located.  
Use DST enables or disables the use of Daylight Savings Time.  
Use NTP SNTP Server enables or disables the use of the specified NTP SNTP server with the node.  
LMSP protection settings determine whether or not LMSP-protected circuits have bidirectional  
switching, are revertive, and what the reversion time is.  
MS-SPRing Protection Settings determine whether MS-SPRing-protected circuits are revertive and  
what the reversion time is at both the ring and span levels.  
Y Cable Protection Settings determine whether Y-Cable protected circuits have bidirectional  
switching, are revertive, and what the reversion time is.  
Security Policy settings determine the failed logins before lockout, idle user timeout for each user  
level, lockout duration, manual unlock user level enabled, password reuse timeout and threshold,  
and single session per user for the node security.  
BITS Timing settings determine the AIS threshold, coding, and framing for BITS1 and BITS2  
timing.  
General Timing settings determine the mode (internal or external), quality of RES, revertive,  
reversion time, and SSM message set for node timing.
