Caveats

CSCdz07098

If OSPF on LAN is enabled with an area ID that is the same as the area ID of any of the DCC Links, CTC will not be able to discover any of the DCC Connected Nodes. To avoid this issue, set the OSPF on LAN area ID to an area other than any of those already occupied by a DCC link. This is as designed.

CSCdy25142

Equipment alarms are always reported based on the activity of the particular card, without taking card redundancy into consideration. Thus, an equipment alarm such as CTNEQPT-PB-0 may be raised against a line card as CR(SA) even though the traffic is protected. This issue will not be resolved.

CSCeb49407

Choosing certain qualities of RES settings in the CTC Provisioning tab, Timing subtab, may trigger a reference failure. Specifically, this can occur if you select the quality of RES level such that any of the following are true.

•ST3 < RES < ST3E

•ST4 < RES < SMC

•RES < ST4

When you then input an actual reference signal lower than ST3E quality, the failure is triggered. This issue will not be resolved.

CSCsd38344

Executing an SNMP Walk on cerentGenericPmThresholdTable on an ONS 15600 node with many cards causes Alarm CONTBUS-IO-B is raised unexpectedly.

CSCsg37635

ONS 15600 SDH is unreachable through CTC, during a system reset when performing an upgrade after the activate step but before the accept step. A system soft reset is a controlled sequence of soft resetting all the boards in the shelf. During the upgrade the introduction of this system reset causes communication problems with both TSCs; the system does not know which TSC is supposed to be active. There is a procedure for an upgrade where a shelf reset should not be done by the operator. There is no way for an automatic shelf reset to occur. On any power-down, the system comes up on the old code without any issues involved. A workaround is to avoid a system reset during upgrade process.

ONS 15600 specifications

Cisco Systems ONS 15600 is a highly versatile optical networking platform designed to meet the demands of modern telecommunications and data services. This multiservice edge platform supports various transmission mediums and offers a wide array of features that enable efficient data transport. Ideal for service providers and large enterprises, the ONS 15600 is engineered to provide scalable and reliable optical transport solutions.

One of the notable features of the ONS 15600 is its capability to support multiple protocols, including SONET/SDH, Ethernet, OTN, and legacy TDM services. This flexibility allows users to tailor their networks according to specific service requirements while ensuring interoperability with existing infrastructure. The platform is designed to facilitate seamless service migration, accommodating both legacy and next-generation services.

The modular architecture of the ONS 15600 enhances its scalability. It allows for easy expansion by incorporating additional line cards or interface modules without requiring significant downtime. This modularity ensures that service providers can evolve their networks over time, responding to increasing bandwidth demands and new service offerings with ease.

Incorporating advanced technologies, the ONS 15600 employs Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM), significantly increasing the capacity of fiber networks by allowing multiple signals to be transmitted simultaneously over a single optical fiber. This capability helps to optimize fiber utilization and reduce operational costs. In addition, the platform supports Optical Transport Network (OTN) for improved error detection and correction, contributing to higher reliability and performance.

Another key characteristic of the ONS 15600 is its robust management capabilities. The platform can be managed through Cisco's Optical Networking Manager (ONM), providing a centralized interface for network configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting. This enhances operational efficiency and minimizes downtime, allowing service providers to focus on delivering quality services to their customers.

The ONS 15600 also prioritizes security, offering various features like encryption and access control to safeguard sensitive data during transmission. With its combination of scalability, flexibility, and security, the Cisco ONS 15600 stands out as a reliable choice for organizations looking to enhance their optical networking capabilities while meeting the evolving demands of the digital landscape. Its commitment to quality and performance makes it a cornerstone of modern optical networks.
