Appendix C Network Element Defaults

C.3 Node Default Settings

Security Policy settings—Set the allowable failed logins before lockout, idle user timeout for each user-level, optional lockout duration or manual unlock enabled, password reuse and change frequency policies, number of characters difference between the old and new password, password aging by security level, enforced single concurrent session per user, and option to disable inactive user after a set inactivity period.

BITS Timing settings—Set the coding, framing, and state settings for building integrated timing supply 1 (BITS-1) and BITS2 timing.

General Timing settings—Set the mode (External, Line, or Mixed), quality of reserved (RES) timing (set the rule that defines the order of clock quality from lowest to highest), revertive, reversion time, and SSM message set for node timing.

Note Any node level defaults changed using the Provisioning > Defaults tab, changes existing node level provisioning. Although this is service affecting, it depends on the type of defaults changed, for example, general, and all timing and security attributes. The “Changing default values for some node level attributes overrides the current provisioning.” message is displayed. The Side Effects column of the Defaults editor (right-click a column header and select Show Column > Side Effects) explains the effect of changing the default values. However, when the card level defaults are changed using the Provisioning > Defaults tab, existing card provisioning remains unaffected.

Note For more information about each individual node setting, refer to the “Change Node Settings” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15600 Procedure Guide.

ONS 15600 specifications

Cisco Systems ONS 15600 is a highly versatile optical networking platform designed to meet the demands of modern telecommunications and data services. This multiservice edge platform supports various transmission mediums and offers a wide array of features that enable efficient data transport. Ideal for service providers and large enterprises, the ONS 15600 is engineered to provide scalable and reliable optical transport solutions.

One of the notable features of the ONS 15600 is its capability to support multiple protocols, including SONET/SDH, Ethernet, OTN, and legacy TDM services. This flexibility allows users to tailor their networks according to specific service requirements while ensuring interoperability with existing infrastructure. The platform is designed to facilitate seamless service migration, accommodating both legacy and next-generation services.

The modular architecture of the ONS 15600 enhances its scalability. It allows for easy expansion by incorporating additional line cards or interface modules without requiring significant downtime. This modularity ensures that service providers can evolve their networks over time, responding to increasing bandwidth demands and new service offerings with ease.

Incorporating advanced technologies, the ONS 15600 employs Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM), significantly increasing the capacity of fiber networks by allowing multiple signals to be transmitted simultaneously over a single optical fiber. This capability helps to optimize fiber utilization and reduce operational costs. In addition, the platform supports Optical Transport Network (OTN) for improved error detection and correction, contributing to higher reliability and performance.

Another key characteristic of the ONS 15600 is its robust management capabilities. The platform can be managed through Cisco's Optical Networking Manager (ONM), providing a centralized interface for network configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting. This enhances operational efficiency and minimizes downtime, allowing service providers to focus on delivering quality services to their customers.

The ONS 15600 also prioritizes security, offering various features like encryption and access control to safeguard sensitive data during transmission. With its combination of scalability, flexibility, and security, the Cisco ONS 15600 stands out as a reliable choice for organizations looking to enhance their optical networking capabilities while meeting the evolving demands of the digital landscape. Its commitment to quality and performance makes it a cornerstone of modern optical networks.
