DLP-E114 Provision Section DCC Terminations

Purpose

This task creates SONET Section DCC terminations required for alarms,

 

administration data, signal control information, and messages.

Tools/Equipment

None

Prerequisite Procedures

Required/As Needed

As needed

Onsite/Remote

Onsite or remote

Security Level

Provisioning or higher

Step 1 In node view, click the Provisioning > Comm Channels > SDCC tabs.

Step 2 In the SDCC Terminations area, click Create.

Step 3 In the Create SDCC Terminations dialog box, click the ports where you want to create the DCC termination. To select more than one port, press the Shift key or the Ctrl key.

Note SDCC refers to the Section DCC, which is used for ONS 15600 DCC terminations. You can provision the SONET Line DCCs and SDCCs (when not used as a DCC termination by the ONS 15600) as DCC tunnels. See the “DLP-E105 Create a DCC Tunnel” task on page 17-5. You can provision SDCC and Line DCC on the same port but it is not recommend. SDCC and Line DCC are only needed on the same port during a software upgrade if the software version does not support SDCC. Provision Line DCC termination on the port that already has SDCC see “DLP-E189 Provision Line DCC Terminations” task on page 17-70. Delete SDCC provisioned on that port, see “DLP-E198 Delete a Section DCC Termination” task on page 17-76. Enable OSPF on the Line DCC termination if not enabled see “DLP-E197 Change a Line DCC Termination” task on page 17-75.

Step 4 In the Port Admin State area, click Set to IS to put the port in service.

Step 5 Verify that the Disable OSPF on SDCC Link is unchecked.

Step 6 If the SDCC termination is to include a non-ONS node, check the Far End is Foreign check box. This automatically sets the far-end node IP address to 0.0.0.0, which means that any address can be specified by the far end. To change the default to a specific the IP address, see the “DLP-E196 Change a Section DCC Termination” task on page 17-75.

Step 7 In the Layer 3 box, perform one of the following:

•Check the IP box only—if the SDCC is between the ONS 15600 and another ONS node and only ONS nodes reside on the network. The SDCC will use PPP (point-to-point protocol).

•Check the IP and OSI boxes—if the SDCC is between the ONS 15600 and another ONS node and third party NEs that use the Open System Interconnection (OSI) protocol stack are on the same network. The SDCC will use PPP.

•Check OSI box only—if the SDCC is between an ONS node and a third party NE that uses the OSI protocol stack. The SDCC will use the LAP-D protocol.

Note If OSI is checked and IP is not checked (LAP-D), no network connections will appear in network view.

15600 specifications

Cisco Systems 15600 is a powerful network router designed to meet the growing demands of enterprise and service provider networks. Equipped with advanced features and cutting-edge technology, the 15600 caters to a range of applications, from data centers to branch offices, supporting the evolving landscape of cloud computing and Internet of Things (IoT).

One of the standout features of the Cisco 15600 is its scalability. The router is built to handle increasing bandwidth requirements, making it ideal for environments where traffic is expected to grow. It supports a range of interface modules, allowing organizations to tailor their network connectivity according to their specific needs. This modular design not only ensures flexibility but also future-proofs the investment, as additional capacity can be added as network demands increase.

Cisco’s 15600 also incorporates advanced security features, such as built-in firewalls and support for secure VPN connections. This is crucial for businesses that prioritize data protection and need to safeguard their information against cyber threats. The router also supports multiple encryption protocols, allowing organizations to implement robust security measures without sacrificing performance.

With regard to performance, the 15600 offers high throughput rates, which are essential for handling large volumes of traffic efficiently. This enhanced performance is further supported by Cisco's innovative technologies, such as Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) that optimize data processing. Additionally, the router utilizes Cisco’s Intelligent WAN (iWAN) capabilities, which enhance the overall performance and efficiency of WAN connections.

Another key characteristic of the 15600 is its support for software-defined networking (SDN). This enables organizations to automate network management, reduce operational costs, and improve agility in deploying applications. Using Cisco's software solutions, network administrators can manage the router through a centralized interface, simplifying operations and enhancing visibility into network performance.

Furthermore, the Cisco 15600 is designed with energy efficiency in mind. Its architecture minimizes power consumption while maintaining high performance levels, contributing to sustainability goals and reducing operational costs over time.

Overall, the Cisco Systems 15600 router stands out as a robust networking solution, offering unmatched scalability, security, performance, and operational efficiency. As organizations increasingly turn to cloud-based solutions and IoT devices, the capabilities of the 15600 position it as a critical component in modern network infrastructures.
