Chapter 19 DLPs D200 to D299

DLP- D249 Provision IP Settings

Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Network > General tabs.

Step 3 Complete the following information in the fields listed:

IP Address—Type the IP address assigned to the ONS 15454 SDH node.

Note If TCC2P cards are installed, secure mode is available. When secure mode is off (sometimes called repeater mode), the IP address entered in the IP Address field applies to the TCC2P RJ-45 TCP/IP (LAN) port. When secure mode is on, the IP Address field shows the address assigned to the MIC-C/T/P LAN port, and the Superuser can enable or disable display of the MIC-C/T/P IP address. See the “DLP-D84 Enable Node Secure Mode” task on page 17-77as needed. Refer to the “Management Network Connectivity” chapter in the

Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Reference Manual for more information about secure mode.

Suppress CTC IP Display—Select this check box if you want to prevent the node IP address from being displayed in CTC to users with Provisioner, Maintenance, or Retrieve security levels. (The IP address suppression is not applied to users with Superuser security level.)

LCD IP Display—Choose one of the following:

Allow Configuration—(Default) Displays the node IP on the front panel LCD and allows it to be changed using the ONS 15454 SDH LCD. This option enables the “DLP-D64 Set the IP Address, Default Router, and Network Mask Using the LCD” task on page 17-53.

Display Only—Displays the node IP address on the front panel LCD but does not allow it to be changed.

Suppress Display—Suppresses the node IP address display on the front panel LCD.

Default Router—If the ONS 15454 SDH is connected to a LAN, enter the IP address of the default router. The default router forwards packets to network devices that the ONS 15454 SDH cannot directly access. This field is ignored if any of the following are true:

The ONS 15454 SDH is not connected to a LAN.

SOCKS proxy server is enabled and the ONS 15454 SDH is provisioned as an end network element (ENE).

Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is enabled on both the ONS 15454 SDH and the LAN where the ONS 15454 SDH is connected.

Forward DHCP Request ToSelect this check box to enable DHCP. Also, enter the DHCP server IP address in the Request To field. The box is unchecked by default. If you will enable any of the gateway settings to implement the ONS 15454 SDH proxy server features, leave this field blank.

Note If you enable DHCP, computers connected to an ONS 15454 SDH node can obtain temporary IP addresses from an external DHCP server. The ONS 15454 SDH only forwards DHCP requests; it does not act as a DHCP server.

MAC Address—(Display only) Displays the ONS 15454 SDH IEEE 802 MAC address.

Note In secure mode, the Ethernet ports are assigned different MAC addresses, and the MIC-C/T/P LAN information can be hidden or revealed by a Superuser.
