Turn Up Node

This chapter explains how to provision a single Cisco ONS 15454 SDH node and turn it up for service, including node name, date and time, timing references, network attributes such as IP address and default router, users and user security, and card protection groups.

If you are provisioning an ONS 15454 SDH for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) or as a hybrid node (DWDM and TDM), you will not complete some procedures until directed to do so in Chapter 5, “Turn Up a DWDM Node.” These procedures are identified in the procedures list in the following section.

Before You Begin

Complete the procedures applicable to your site plan from the following chapters:

•Chapter 1, “Install the Shelf and FMECs”

•Chapter 2, “Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable”

•Chapter 3, “Connect the PC and Log into the GUI”

This section lists the chapter procedures (NTPs). Turn to a procedure for applicable tasks (DLPs).

1.NTP-D24 Verify Card Installation, page 4-2—Complete this procedure first.

2.NTP-D30 Create Users and Assign Security, page 4-4—Complete this procedure to create Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) users and assign their security levels.

3.NTP-D25 Set Up Name, Date, Time, and Contact Information, page 4-6—Continue with this procedure to set the node name, date, time, location, and contact information.

4.NTP-D279 Set Power Monitor Thresholds, page 4-8—Continue with this procedure to set the node battery power thresholds.

5.NTP-D169 Set Up CTC Network Access, page 4-9—Continue with this procedure to provision the IP address, default router, subnet mask, and network configuration settings.

6.NTP-D27 Set Up the ONS 15454 SDH for Firewall Access, page 4-19—Continue with this procedure if the ONS 15454 SDH will be accessed behind firewalls.

7.NTP-D28 Set Up Timing, page 4-22—Continue with this procedure to set up the node’s SONET timing references. If you are turning up a DWDM or hybrid node, do not complete this procedure until directed to do so in Chapter 5, “Turn Up a DWDM Node.”
