Chapter 3 Building the Network

3.5.1 Prerequisites for Adding NEs

For NEs with OSC, additional configuration is required. Add patches between the Wave and OSC filter interfaces. For example, if the Wave 0 interface is connected physically to the OSC filter 0/0 interface, add a patch using the following command:

patch Wave 0 Oscfilter 0/0

3.5.1.4.5 Unbundled CiscoView (Optional)

In CTM, CiscoView is used for configuring and monitoring ONS 155xx NEs. Server-based (unbundled) CiscoView should be installed on the CTM server. Without unbundled CiscoView:

You cannot launch CiscoView on ONS 15501 NEs.

You can launch CiscoView on ONS 15530 and ONS 15540 NEs only if embedded CiscoView is installed on these NEs.

For information about installing CiscoView on the CTM server, see the Cisco Transport Manager Release 6.0 Installation Guide.

3.5.1.4.6 Performance Monitoring (Optional)

Performance monitoring is optional, but you must enable it if you want to monitor threshold alarms and performance parameters.

You can enable performance monitoring by using the device CLI or CiscoView.

For information about using the CLI, see the relevant hardware documentation.

For information about using CiscoView, see Appendix I, “Using CiscoView to Configure and Monitor ONS 15501, ONS 15530, and ONS 15540 NEs.”

3.5.1.5Prerequisites for Adding ONS 1580x NEs

Before adding ONS 1580x NEs to CTM, complete the following prerequisites:

For the ONS 15800, position the master Control and Monitoring Processor (CMP), named CTM-W or CMP-W-2E, in the physical location 01-01-15.

For the ONS 15801 and ONS 15808, position the master CMP (named CTM-W or CMP-W-2E) in the physical location 01-01-13.

For the ONS 15800, ONS 15801 and ONS 15808, the server must be able to Telnet to port 1000 on the NEs. The network configuration must enable connectivity between the server machine and the ports on each managed NE.

3.5.1.6Prerequisites for Adding Cisco CRS-1 and XR 12000 NEs

Before adding a Cisco Carrier Routing System 1 (CRS-1) or XR 12000 NE to CTM, complete the following prerequisites:

Enter the following CLI command to add the Manageability pie (if it is not already installed):

install add <PIE_file_location> to <device> activate

Enter the following CLI commands:

 

 

xml agent corba (to connect using CORBA)

 

 

xml agent corba ssl (to connect in secure mode using SSL)

 

 

domain ipv4 host <EMS_server_name> <EMS_server_IP_address>
