APPENDIX

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.

This appendix describes the factory-configured (default) network element (NE) settings for the

Cisco ONS 15454. It includes descriptions of card, node, and Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) default

settings. To import, export, or edit the settings, refer to the “Maintain the Node” chapter of the

Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide. Cards supported by this platform that are not listed in this appendix

are not supported by user-configurable NE defaults settings.

To change card settings individually (that is, without directly changing the NE defaults), refer to the

“Change Card Settings” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide. To change node settings,

refer to the “Change Node Settings” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide.

This appendix includes the following sections:

• C.1 Network Element Defaults Description, page C-1

• C.2 Card Default Settings, page C-2

• C.3 Node Default Settings, page C-74

• C.4 CTC Default Settings, page C-86

The NE defaults are preinstalled on each Cisco ONS 15454 Advanced Timing, Communications, and

Control (TCC2) and Advanced Timing, Communications, and Control Plus (TCC2P) card. They also

ship as a file called 15454-defaults.txt on the CTC software CD in case you want to import the defaults

onto existing TCC2/TCC2P cards. The NE defaults include card-level, CTC, and node-level defaults.

Changes to card provisioning that are made manually using the “Change Card Settings” chapter in the

Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide override default settings. If you use the CTC Defaults editor (in the

node view Provisioning > Defaults tab) or import a new defaults file, any changes to card or port settings

that result only affect cards that are installed or preprovisioned after the defaults have changed.

Changes that are made manually to most node-level default settings override the current settings,

whether default or provisioned. If you change node-level default settings, either by using the Defaults

editor or by importing a new defaults file, the new defaults reprovision the node immediately for all
