Cisco Ons 15454 User manual

Turning Up a Node

This chapter explains how to provision a single Cisco ONS 15454 node and turn it up for service, including

assigning the node name, date, and time; provisioning timing references; provisioning network attributes such

as IP address and default router; setting up users and user security; installing cards; and creating DWDM

connections.

The procedures and tasks described in this chapter for the Cisco ONS 15454 platform is applicable to the

Cisco ONS 15454 M2 and Cisco ONS 15454 M6 platforms, unless noted otherwise.

Note

Procedures in this chapter require that you have a network plan calculated for your DWDM network with

Cisco Transport Planner. Cisco Transport Planner is a DWDM planning tool that is available from your Cisco

account representative. Cisco Transport Planner prepares a shelf plan for each network node and calculates

the power and attenuation levels for the DWDM cards installed in the node. For information about Cisco

Transport Planner, contact your Cisco account representative. For instructions on using Cisco Transport

Planner, refer to the Cisco Transport Planner DWDM Operations Guide.

Note

Unless otherwise specified, in this document “ONS 15454” refers to both ANSI (ONS 15454) and ETSI

(ONS 15454 SDH) shelf assemblies.

Note

Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) views referenced in these procedures depend on the mode. In single-shelf

mode, the views are network, node, and card. In multishelf mode, the views are network, multishelf, shelf,

and card. For more information about CTC views, refer to CTC Enhancements, Operations, and Shortcuts.

Note

In this chapter, “100G-LC-C card” refers to the 15454-M-100G-LC-C card. “10x10G-LC” refers to the

15454-M-10x10G-LC card. “CFP-LC” refers to the 15454-M-CFP-LC card.

NTP-G341 Setting Up Secure Access to TL1

The port number for secure TL1 is 4083. The port number for non-secure TL1 is3083.

EPNM-based interfaces need to be updated with the correct port details for the node.

Use any SSH client on Windows.

Note

Stop. You have completed this procedure.

OpenSSH Version

The OpenSSH version that is currently supported is 3.5.9.1 and will be upgraded in a future release.

The OpenSSH has been upgraded to Cisco SSH Release 1.4.

NTP-G29 Setting Up SNMP

This procedure provisions the SNMP parameters so

that you can use SNMP management software with

the ONS 15454.

Purpose

•DLP-G46 Log into CTC

•NTP-G22 Verifying Common Card Installation

Prerequisite Procedures

Required if SNMP is used at your site.Required/As Needed

Onsite or remoteOnsite/Remote

Provisioning or higherSecurity Level

Procedure

Step 1 In node view (single-shelf mode) or multishelf view (multishelf mode), click the Provisioning >SNMP tabs.

Step 2 In the Trap Destinations area, click Create.

Step 3 Complete the following in the Create SNMP Trap Destination dialog box.

• Destination IP Address—Type the IP address of your network management system (NMS). If the node

you are logged into is an ENE, set the destination address to the GNE.

You can configure IPv6 addresses for SNMPv2/v3 trap destinations and SNMPv3 proxy targets,

in addition to IPv4 addresses.

Note

Turning Up a Node

OpenSSH Version

• Community—Type the SNMP community name. For a description of SNMP community names, refer

to the SNMP document.

The community name is a form of authentication and access control. The community name

assigned to the ONS 15454 is case-sensitive and must match the community name of the NMS.

Note

• UDP Port—The default User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port for SNMP is 162.

• Trap version—Choose either SNMPv1 or SNMPv2. Refer to your NMS documentation to determine

which version to use.

• Click OK. The node IP address of the node where you provisioned the new trap destination appears in

the Trap Destinations area.

Step 4 Click the node IP address in the Trap Destinations area. Verify the SNMP information that appears in the

Selected Destination list.

Step 5 If you want the SNMP agent to accept SNMP SET requests on certain MIBs, click the Allow SNMP Sets

check box. If this box is not checked, SET requests are rejected.

Step 6 If you want to set up the SNMP proxy feature to allow network management, message reporting, and

performance statistic retrieval across firewalls, click the Allow SNMP Proxy check box located on the SNMP

tab.

The Use Generic MIB check box is normally not checked for MSTP. It is checked only when the

ONS 15454 resides in networks with multiple ONS products, and the network management system

requires MIBs with the same name to have the same object IDs. By default, the ONS 15454 uses

the CERENT-454-MIBs. Other ONS products, such as the ONS 15600, the ONS 15327, and ONS

15310-CL, use the CERENT-GENERIC-MIBs. If Use Generic MIB is checked, the ONS 15454

will use the CERENT-GENERIC-MIBs so the object IDs will be the same for all products.

Note

Using the firewall proxy feature effectively breaches the firewall to exchange management

information.

For more information about the SNMP proxy feature, refer to SNMP.

Note

Step 7 Click Apply.

Step 8 If you are setting up SNMP proxies, you can set up to three relays that send SNMP trap error counts back to

the NE for each trap destination address:

a) Click the first trap destination IP address. The address and its community name appear in the Destination

fields.

b) Enter up to three SNMP Proxy relay addresses and community names in the fields for Relay A, Relay B,

and Relay C.

The community names specified for each relay node must match one of the provisioned SNMP

community names in the NE.

Note

The SNMP proxy directs SNMP traps from this node through Relay A to Relay B to Relay C

to the trap destination. Ensure that you enter the IP addresses in the correct order so that this

sequence runs correctly.

Note

Step 9 Click Apply.

Procedure

Step 1 Verify that the following conditions are not present. (During node turn-up, these conditions are normally not

present):

• The card is a control card.

• The card is part of a protection group.

• The card has optical channels or overhead circuits provisioned.

• The card is being used for timing.

• The card has an OSC/GCC termination.

• A port on the card is being used for a Link Management Protocol (LMP) channel or link.

• The card is part of an optical side.

• The card is assigned to DWDM patchcords.

• If a port on the card is in service.

• If a port on the card is part of a circuit.

If any of these conditions exist, do not continue. You will not be able to delete the card until the card is

removed from protection groups; circuits, DCC, and GCCs are deleted; a different timing source is provisioned,

and the LMP link or channel is deleted.

• To delete a protection group, see the NTP-G83 Modify or Delete Card Protection Settings procedure.
