DLP- F314 Provision MS-DCC Terminations
Note When MS-DCC is provisioned, an RS-DCC termination is allowed on the same port, but is not
recommended. RS-DCC and MS-DCC are only needed on the same port during a software
upgrade if the software version does not support MS-DCC. Changing configuration of a port
having MS-DCC termination to RS-DCC termination is allowed. During this procedure both
MS-DCC and RS-DCC terminations can be present on the same port. Once the RS-DCC
termination is configured see “DLP-F253 Provision RS-DCC Terminations” task on page17-45
delete the MS-DCC terminations as specified in“DLP-F322 Delete an MS-DCC Termination”
task on page 18-20, and enable the OSPF on RS-DCC termination if not enabled see “DLP-F319
Change an RS-DCC Termination” task on page18-19.
Step1 In node view, click the Provisioning > Comm Channels > MS-DCC tabs.
Step2 Click Create.
Step3 In the Create MS-DCC Terminations dialog box, click the ports where you want to create the MS-DCC
termination. To select more than one port, press the Shift key or the Ctrl key.
Note MS-DCC refers to the multiplex section DCC, which is used for ONS15600 SDH DCC
terminations. The SDH MS-DCCs and the RS-DCC (when not used as a DCC termination by the
ONS 15600 SDH) can be provisioned as DCC tunnels. See the “DLP-F244 Create a DCC
Tunnel” task on page17-36.
Step4 In the Port Admin State area, click Set to unlocked to put the port in service.
Step5 Verify that the Disable OSPF on DCC Link check box is unchecked.
Step6 If the RS-DCC termination is to include a non-ONS node, check the Far End is Foreign check box. This
automatically sets the far-end node IP address to 0.0.0.0, which means that any address can be specified
by the far end. To change the default to a specific the IP address, see the “DLP-F320 Change an MS-DCC
Termination” task on page18-19.
Step7 In the Layer 3 area, perform one of the following:
Check the IP box only—If the MS-DCC is between the ONS15600 SDH and another ONS node and
only ONS nodes reside on the network. The MS-DCC will use point-to-point protocol (PPP).
Check the IP and OSI boxes—If the MS-DCC is between the ONS15600 SDH and another ONS
node and third party NEs that use the OSI protocol stack are on the same network. The MS-DCC
will use PPP.
Note Checking only the OSI box (LAP-D) is not available for MS-DCCs.
Step8 If you checked OSI, complete the following steps. If you checked IP only, continue with Step9.
a. Click Next.
b. Provision the following fields:
Router—Sets the OSI router.
ESH—Sets the End System Hello propagation frequency. End system NEs transmit ESHs to
inform other ESs and ISs about the NSAPs it serves. The default is 10 seconds. The range is 10
to 1000 seconds.
