3.5.2 Adding NEs

Table 3-7		Field Descriptions for the Add New NE Wizard (continued)

Field						Description

NE Service Level						Enter the password to use for CTM server-to-NE connections.
Password

Description						Enter a description of the NE.

Location Name						Enter the NE geographic location.

Subnetwork ID						Select the subnetwork ID associated with the NE.
(not selectable if
automatic subnetwork
grouping is enabled)

Network Partition ID						Select the network partition associated with the NE.

Group Properties Panel

Grouping Option for						Select a grouping option for the discovered NEs. The groupings are as follows:
Discovered NEs						• Group discovered NEs in the Discovered Network Elements group

						• Group NEs with the NE that discovered them (Cisco default)
						• Group NEs by subnet


Note					•	For CTM to communicate with certain NE types, you must set the username and password that the
						CTM server uses to establish a session with the NE. To enter user information, choose
						Administration > Control Panel > Security Properties tab; then, enter the username and
						password on the ONS 15216 EDFA2, ONS 15216 EDFA3, ONS 15216 OADM, ONS 15327,
						ONS 15454, CRS-1,XR 12000, ONS 15454 SDH, ONS 155XX, ONS 15600 SDH, ONS 15600,
						or ONS 158XX tab.

•Regardless of the actual size of the password, the Password and Confirm Password fields display only a fixed-length string. The fixed-length string is 12 asterisks (*).

•For the ONS 15800, ONS 15801, and ONS 15808, a misconfigured password setting can affect configuration, PM information collection, and CTM GateWay/TL1 services.

•For more information, see 8.3.4.14 Configuring CTM Security Parameters, page 8-33. For NEs that do not use SNMP, you can set the username and password in the NE Authentication tab of the Domain Explorer. For more information, see 8.4.1 Setting NE Authentication, page 8-45.

Note	• When adding more than one DCC-connected, CTC-based NE, add one NE to a subnetwork and
	allow the other NEs to be automatically discovered and placed in the same subnetwork. When
	moving NEs from one subnetwork to another, move all DCC-connected NEs to the same
	subnetwork. Move the entire subnetwork instead of splitting DCC-connected NEs between
	subnetworks.
	• Errors encountered while adding NEs are listed in the Error Log.
