DLP- A513 Provision CE-100T-8 Ethernet Ports

In the TCC CORBA (IIOP/SSLIOP) Listener Port area, choose a listener port option:

Default - TCC Fixed—Uses Port 57790 to connect to ONS 15454s on the same side of the firewall or if no firewall is used (default). This option can be used for access through a firewall if Port 57790 is open.

Standard Constant—Uses Port 683 (IIOP) or Port 684 (SSLIOP), the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) default port number.

Other Constant—If the default port is not used, type the Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP) or SSLIOP port specified by your firewall administrator.

Step 8 In the SNMP Access area, set the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) access state to Non-Secure or Disabled (disables SNMP access).

Step 9 Click Apply.

Step 10 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).

DLP-A513 Provision CE-100T-8 Ethernet Ports

Purpose

This task provisions CE-100T-8 Ethernet ports to carry traffic.

Tools/Equipment

None

Prerequisite Procedures

DLP-A60 Log into CTC, page 17-69

Required/As Needed

As needed

Onsite/Remote

Onsite or remote

Security Level

Provisioning or higher

Note You can provision SONET contiguous concatenated (CCAT) or virtual concatenated (VCAT) circuits for the CE-100T-8 before or after provisioning the card’s Ethernet ports and/or packet-over-SONET (POS) ports. See the “NTP-A257 Create an Automatically Routed Optical Circuit” procedure on page 6-38or the “NTP-A264 Create an Automatically Routed VCAT Circuit” procedure on page 6-82, as needed.

Step 1 In node view, double-click the CE-100T-8 card graphic to open the card.

Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Ether Ports tabs.

Step 3 For each CE-100T-8 port, provision the following parameters:

Port Name—If you want to label the port, enter the port name.

Admin State—Choose IS to put the port in service.

Expected Speed—Choose the expected speed of the device that is or will be attached to the Ethernet port. If you know the speed, choose 100 Mbps or 10 Mbps to match the attached device. If you do not know the speed, choosing Auto enables autonegotiation for the speed of the port, and the CE-100T-8 port will attempt to negotiate a mutually acceptable speed with the attached device.

Expected Duplex—Choose the expected duplex of the device that is or will be attached to the Ethernet port. If you know the duplex, choose Full or Half to match the attached device. If you do not know the duplex, choosing Auto enables autonegotiation for the duplex of the port, and the CE-100T-8 port will attempt to negotiate a mutually acceptable duplex with the attached device.

ONS 15454 specifications

Cisco Systems ONS 15454 is a versatile optical networking platform designed to enable service providers and enterprises to deploy and manage robust optical networks efficiently. The ONS 15454 serves as a cornerstone in the evolution of transport networks, featuring various technologies that meet the increasing demand for bandwidth and service quality.

One of the standout features of the ONS 15454 is its support for multiple service types, including TDM, Ethernet, and Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM). This capability allows service providers to maximize network resources while delivering a wide range of services, from traditional voice to high-speed data and video.

The ONS 15454 leverages Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology, enabling the transmission of multiple data streams over a single optical fiber. This effectively expands the network's capacity without the need for additional infrastructure, a crucial benefit in today's ever-growing data landscape. The system supports a variety of transponder modules, allowing for flexible scaling and seamless upgrades as bandwidth requirements increase.

Scalability is another key characteristic of the ONS 15454. With its modular architecture, it accommodates a range of interfaces and line cards, making it easier to tailor deployments to specific customer needs. This modularity not only facilitates upgrades but also simplifies maintenance, minimizing downtime and operational costs.

The platform also features advanced management capabilities through Cisco's Optical Network Management system. This allows for real-time monitoring, provisioning, and troubleshooting, ensuring network reliability and performance. The intuitive interface and comprehensive reporting tools enable operators to gain insights into network operations, improving decision-making processes.

Furthermore, the ONS 15454 is built to support optical layer protection features, enhancing network resilience. Technologies such as Automatic Protection Switching (APS) and Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC) ensure that connectivity is maintained even in the event of a failure, crucial for mission-critical applications.

In conclusion, the Cisco ONS 15454 is a powerful optical networking solution that combines flexibility, scalability, and advanced management features. Its support for various services and technologies positions it as an essential asset for organizations looking to build a future-proof network capable of handling increasing data traffic while maintaining high service standards.
