DLP- E182 Create Login Node Groups

Step 7 If you set the Path Trace Mode field to Manual, enter the string that the OC-N port should receive in the New Expected String field. To do this, trace the circuit path on the detailed circuit window to determine whether the port is in the circuit source or destination path, then set the New Expected String to the string transmitted by the circuit source or destination. If you set the Path Trace Mode field to Auto, skip this step.

Step 8 Click Apply, then click Close.

DLP-E182 Create Login Node Groups

 

Purpose

This task creates a login node group to display ONS 15600s that have an IP

 

 

connection but not a DCC connection to the login node.

 

Tools/Equipment

None

 

Prerequisite Procedures

DLP-E26 Log into CTC, page 16-33

 

Required/As Needed

As needed

 

Onsite/Remote

Onsite or remote

 

Security Level

Provisioning or higher

 

 

Step 1

From the Edit menu in node view, choose Preferences.

Step 2

Click the Login Node Group tab.

Step 3

Click Create Group.

 

Step 4

In the Create Login Group Name dialog box, enter a name for the group.

Step 5

Click OK.

 

Step 6

In the Members area, type the IP address (or node name) of a node you want to add to the group. Click

 

Add. Repeat this step for each node that you want to add to the group.

Step 7

Click OK.

 

 

The next time you log into an ONS 15600, the login node group will be available in the Additional Nodes

 

list of the Login dialog box. For example, in Figure 17-10, a login node group, “Test Group,” is created

 

that contains the IP addresses for Nodes 1, 4, and 5. During login, if you choose the Test Group group

from the Additional Nodes list and Disable Network Discovery is not selected, all nodes in the figure appear. If Test Group and Disable Network Discovery are both selected, Nodes 1, 4, and 5 appear. You can create as many login groups as you need. The groups are stored in the CTC preferences file and are not visible to other users.

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.
