Adding an ML-Series Card into a Cisco Proprietary RPR
• Test Ethernet connectivity between the access ports on the new ML-Series card with a test set to
validate the newly created three-node Cisco propriet ary RPR.
• Monitor Ethernet traffic and existing routing protocols for at least an hour after the node insertion.
Caution The specific steps in the following procedure are for the topology in the example. Your own steps will
vary according to your network design. Do not attempt this procedure without obtaining a detailed plan
or method of procedure from an experienced network architect.
Adding an ML-Series Card into a Cisco Proprietary RPR
To add an ML-Series card to the Cisco proprietary RPR in the example, complete the following
procedure:
Step 1 Start a Cisco IOS CLI session for the ML-Series card in the first adjacent node. This is Adjacent Node 1
in Figure 17-9.
Step 2 Complete the following Cisco IOS configuration on the ML-Series card in the first adjacent node,
beginning in global configuration mode:
Step 3 Start a Cisco IOS CLI session for the ML-Series card in Adjacent Node 2, as shown in Figure 17-9.
Step 4 Complete the following Cisco IOS configuration on the Adjacent Node 2 ML-Series card, beginning in
global configuration mode:
Step 5 In CTC, log into Adjacent Node 1.
Step 6 Double-click the ML-Series card in Adjacent Node 1.
The card view appears.
Step 7 Click the Circuits tab.
Step 8 Click the Circuits subtab.
Step 9 Identify the appropriate STS circuit by looking under the source column and destination column for the
circuit entry that matches the POS ports at the endpoints of the circuit to be deleted.
The circuit entry is in node-name/card-slot/port-number format, such as Node-1/s12(ML100T)/pPOS-0 .
Step 10 Click the circuit entry to highlight it.
Step 11 Click Delete.
A confirmation dialog box appears.
Step 12 Click Yes.
a. Router(config)# interface pos
interface-number
Enters interface configuration mode for the POS port at one
endpoint of the circuit to be deleted.
b. Router(config-if)# shutdown Closes the interface, which initiates the wrap.
a. Router(config)# interface pos
interface-number
Enters interface configuration mode for the POS port at one
endpoint of the circuit to be deleted.
b. Router(config-if)# shutdown Closes the interface.
