3.5.2 Network View

Network view (Figure 3-7) displays information about the ONS network. You perform network provisioning and management tasks in this view. A United States map displays and the ONS 15327 nodes are represented by colored icons. The color of the node icon indicates the status of the node. Table 3-3shows the colors and their corresponding status.

Figure 3-7 The CTC network view

Node color indicates its status

Table 3-3	Node Status

Color		Alarm Status

Green		No alarms

Yellow		Minor alarms

Orange		Major alarms

Red		Critical alarms

Grey with node name		Node is initializing

Grey with IP address		Node is initializing, or a problem exists with IP routing from node to PC

The network view tabs display network alarms, alarm history, circuits, provisioning, and maintenance. You can click spans (the lines connecting the nodes) and node icons on the network map to view circuit properties, provision circuits, and perform protection switches. You can also customize the network map view (see the “Inserting an Alternative Network Topology Map” section on page 3-16)and create new domains (see the “Creating Domains” section on page 3-18). This customized map view becomes the default view for that user, when the user navigates out of the network view. Table 3-4shows the actions that you can perform in network view.
