DLP-F335 Preprovision an SFP

Purpose	This procedure preprovisions Small Form-factor Pluggables (SFPs), which
	are referred to as pluggable port modules (PPMs) in CTC. Cisco-approved
	STM-1, STM-4, STM-16, Ethernet, and multirate PPMs are compatible
	with the ONS 15600 SDH. See the Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Reference
	Manual for a list of acceptable SFPs.
Tools/Equipment	None
Prerequisite Procedures	None
Required/As Needed	As needed
Onsite/Remote	Onsite or remote
Security Level	Provisioning or higher

Note If you preprovision a multirate SFP, you must next select the line rate using the “DLP-F390 Provision an Optical Line Rate and Wavelength” task on page 18-103.

Step 1 Complete the “DLP-F181 Log into CTC” task on page 16-34to log into an ONS 15600 SDH on the network.

Step 2 Click the Alarms tab:

a.Verify that the alarm filter is not turned on. See the “DLP-F288 Disable Alarm Filtering” task on page 17-78as necessary.

b.Verify that no unexplained conditions appear on the network. If unexplained conditions appear, resolve them before continuing. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Troubleshooting Guide for procedures to clear alarms.

c.Complete the “DLP-F379 Export CTC Data” task on page 18-88to export alarm and condition information.

Step 3 In node view, double-click the ASAP card where you want to provision PPM settings. Step 4 Click the Provisioning > Pluggable Port Modules tabs.

Step 5 In the Pluggable Port Modules pane, click Create. The Create PPM dialog box appears. Step 6 In the Create PPM dialog box, complete the following:

•PPM—Click the slot number where you want to preprovision the SFP from the drop-down list.

•PPM Type—Click the number of ports supported by your SFP from the drop-down list. If only one port is supported, PPM (1 port) is the only option.

Step 7 Click OK. The newly created port appears on the Pluggable Port Modules pane. The row on the Pluggable Port Modules pane turns light blue and the Actual Equipment Type column lists the preprovisioned PPM as unknown until the actual SFP is installed. After the SFP is installed, the row on the pane turns white and the column lists the equipment name.

Step 8 Verify that the PPM appears in the list on the Pluggable Port Modules pane. If it does not, repeat Steps 5 through 8.

Step 9 On the Provisioning tab, click the Line subtab. If applicable for the PPM you are preprovisioning, use the Reach and Wavelength columns to configure these parameters as needed.
