DLP- F307 Create Login Node Groups

•Auto—Uses the first string received from the port at the other path trace end as the current expected string. An alarm is raised when a string that differs from the baseline is received. For STM-N ports, Auto is recommended because Manual mode requires you to trace the circuit on the Edit Circuit window to determine whether the port is the source or destination path.

•Manual—Uses the Current Expected String field as the baseline string. An alarm is raised when a string that differs from the Current Expected String is received.

Step 7 If you set the Path Trace Mode field to Manual, enter the string that the STM-N port should receive in the New Expected String field. To do this, trace the circuit path on the detailed circuit window to determine whether the port is in the circuit source or destination path, then set the New Expected String to the string transmitted by the circuit source or destination. If you set the Path Trace Mode field to Auto, skip this step.

Step 8 Click Apply, then click Close.

DLP-F307 Create Login Node Groups

	Purpose	This task creates a login node group to display ONS 15600 SDH nodes that
		have an IP connection but not a DCC connection to the login node.
	Tools/Equipment	None
	Prerequisite Procedures	DLP-F181 Log into CTC, page 16-34
		NTP-F129 Log into the ONS 15600 SDH GUI, page 3-5
	Required/As Needed	As needed
	Onsite/Remote	Onsite or remote
	Security Level	Provisioning or higher
Step 1	From the Edit menu in node view, choose Preferences.
Step 2	Click the Login Node Group tab.
Step 3	Click Create Group.
Step 4	In the Create Login Group Name dialog box, enter a name for the group.
Step 5	Click OK.
Step 6	In the Members area, type the IP address (or node name) of a node you want to add to the group. Click
	Add. Repeat this step for each node that you want to add to the group.
Step 7	Click OK.
	The next time you log into an ONS 15600 SDH, the login node group will be available in the Additional
	Nodes list of the Login dialog box. For example, in Figure 18-2, a login node group is created that
	contains the IP addresses for Nodes 1, 4, and 5. During login, if you choose this group from the

Additional Nodes list and Disable Network Discovery is not selected, all nodes in the figure appear. If the login group and Disable Network Discovery are both selected, Nodes 1, 4, and 5 appear. You can create as many login groups as you need. The groups are stored in the CTC preferences file and are not visible to other users.
