DLP- F354 Roll Two Cross-Connects on One Optical Circuit Using Manual Routing

To route the circuit on a protected path, leave Fully Protected Path checked and continue with Step 14.

To create an unprotected circuit, uncheck Fully Protected Path and continue with Step 15.

Step 14 If you checked Fully Protected Path, choose one of the following:

Nodal Diversity Required—Ensures that the primary and alternate paths within the SNCP portions of the complete circuit path are nodally diverse.

Nodal Diversity Desired—Specifies that node diversity is preferred, but if node diversity is not possible, CTC creates fiber-diverse paths for the SNCP portion of the complete circuit path.

Link Diversity Only—Specifies that only fiber-diverse primary and alternate paths for SNCP portions of the complete circuit path are needed. The paths might be node-diverse, but CTC does not check for node diversity.

Step 15 Click Next. Beneath Route Review and Edit, node icons appear for you to route the circuit manually.

The green arrows pointing from the source node to other network nodes indicate spans that are available for routing the circuit.

Step 16 Complete the “DLP-F343 Provision an STM-N Circuit Route” task on page 18-47.

Step 17 Click Finish. In the Circuits tab, verify that a new circuit appears.

This circuit is the Roll To circuit. It is designated with the Roll From circuit name appended with ROLL**.

Step 18 Click the Rolls tab. Two new rolls now appear on the Rolls tab. For each pending roll, view the Roll Valid Signal status. When one of the following conditions are met, continue with Step 19.

If the Roll Valid Signal status is true, a valid signal was found on the new port.

If the Roll Valid Signal status is false, a valid signal was not found. Wait until the signal is found before continuing with the next step. If the signal is not found, refer to the “General Troubleshooting” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Troubleshooting Guide. To cancel the roll, see the “DLP-F357 Cancel a Roll” task on page 18-70.

The roll is a one-way destination roll and the Roll Valid signal status is false. It is not possible to get a Roll Valid Signal status of true for a one-way destination roll.

Note You cannot cancel an automatic roll after a valid signal is found.

A roll can be forced onto the Roll To Circuit destination without a valid signal by using the Force Valid Signal button. If you choose Force Valid Signal, traffic on the circuit that is involved in the roll will be dropped once the roll is completed.

Step 19 If you selected Manual in Step 5, click each roll and click Complete to route the traffic to the new port. If you selected Auto, continue with Step 20.

Note You cannot complete a roll if you cancelled the sibling roll. You must complete the two rolls together.

Step 20 For both manual and automatic rolls, click Finish to complete the circuit roll process. Step 21 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
