Chapter 15 Configuring Resilient Packet Ring on the ML-Series Card
Add an ML-Series Card into an RPR
Step 11
Click Delete.
A confirmation dialog box appears.
Step 12
Click Yes.
Step 13
Use a test set to verify that Ethernet connectivity still exists between the Ethernet access ports on
Adjacent Node 1 and Adjacent Node 2.
Note
The SPR interface and the Ethernet interfaces on the ML-Series card must be in a bridge group
in order for RPR traffic to bridge the RPR.
Step 14
If the new node is not already an active node in the SONET ring topology, add the node to the ring. Refer
to the “Add and Remove Nodes” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide.
Step 15
If the ML-Series card in the new node is not already installed, install the card in the node. Refer to the
“Install the Cisco ONS 15310-CL” or “Install the Cisco ONS 15310-MA” chapters of the
Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide.
Step 16
Upload the initial startup configuration file for the new ML-Series card. If you do not have a prepared
startup configuration file, manually create a startup configuration file.
Caution
Ensure the new node is configured with RPR before its POS ports are manually enabled or enabled
through the configuration file.
Step 17
Build an STS circuit with a circuit state of In Service (IS) from the available POS port on
Adjacent Node 1 to the New Node, as shown in Figure 15-8. On the New Node, use the POS port with
the interface-number that does not match the interface-number of the available POS port on
Adjacent Node 1. For example, POS Port 0 on Adjacent Node 1would connect to POS Port 1 on the
New Node.
For detailed steps for building the circuit, see the “Configuring CTC Circuits for RPR” section on
page 15-7.
Note
A best practice is to configure SONET circuits in an east-to-west or west-to-east configuration,
from Port 0 (east) to Port 1 (west) or Port 1 (east) to Port 0 (west), around the SONET ring.
Step 18
Build an STS circuit with a circuit state of IS from the available POS port on Adjacent Node 2 to the
remaining POS port on the New Node, as shown in Figure 15-8.
Step 19
Start or resume a Cisco IOS CLI session for the ML-Series card in Adjacent Node 1, as shown in
Figure 15-7.
Step 20
Complete the following Cisco IOS con figuration, beginning in global configuration mode:
Step 21
Start a Cisco IOS CLI session for the ML-Series card in Adjacent Node 2, as shown in Figure 15-7.
Step 22
Complete the following Cisco IOS configuration on the Adjacent Node 2 ML-Series card, beginning in
global configuration mode:
a.
Router(config)# interface pos
interface-number
Enters interface configuration mode for the POS port at one
endpoint of the first newly created circuit.
b.
Router(config-if)# no shutdown
Enables the port.
