Step 1 Insert the ONS 15600 SONET System Software CD, Version 8.0.x, into the computer CD-ROM drive.
If the CTC Installation Wizard appears, click Cancel.
Step 2 From the Windows Start menu, choose Run. In the Run dialog box, click Browse and navigate to the
CISCO15600 folder on the software CD.
Step 3 In the Browse dialog box Files of Type field, choose All Files.
Step 4 Choose the RE-INIT.jar file and click Open. The NE Reinitialization window appears.
Step 5 Complete the following fields:
GNE IP—If the node you are reinitializing is accessed through another node configured as a gateway
network element (GNE), enter the GNE IP address. If you have a direct connection to the node, leave
this field blank.
Node IP—Enter the node name or IP address of the node that you are reinitializing.
User ID—Enter the user ID needed to access the node.
Password—Enter the password for the user ID.
Upload Package—Check this box to send the software package file to the node. If unchecked, the
software stored on the node is not modified.
Force Upload—Check this box to send the software package file to the node even if the node is
running the same software version. If unchecked, reinitialization will not send the software package
if the node is already running the same version.
Purpose This task reinitializes the ONS 15600 using the CTC reinitialization (reinit)
tool on a Windows computer. Reinitialization uploads a new software
package to the TSC cards, clears the node database, and restores the factory
default parameters.
