APPENDIX
C
Network Element Defaults
This appendix describes the factory-configured (default) network element (NE) settings for the Cisco
ONS 15454 SDH. It includes descriptions of card, node, and CTC default settings. To import, export, or
edit the settings, refer to the “Maintain the Node” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure
Guide. Cards supported by this platform that are not listed in this appendix are not supported by
factory-configured NE default settings.
To change card settings individually (that is, without changing the defaults), refer to the “Change Card
Settings” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide. To change node settings, refer to the
“Change Node Settings” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.
C.1 Network Element Defaults Description
The NE defaults are pre-installed on each Cisco ONS 15454 SDH TCC2 or TCC2P card. They also ship
as a file called 15454SDH-defaults.txt on the CTC software CD in the event you want to import the
defaults onto existing TCC2 cards. The NE defaults include card-level, CTC, and node-level defaults.
Changes made manually using the “Change Card Settings” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH
Procedure Guide override default settings. If you use the Defaults Editor or import a new defaults file,
the default changes do not change the settings for cards that are currently installed or slots that are
pre-provisioned for cards.
Changes made manually to most node-level default settings (either when you initially turn up a node or
change node settings later) override the current settings, whether default or provisioned. If you change
the default settings, using either the Defaults Editor or by importing a new defaults file, the new defaults
take effect immediately for all settings except those relating to protection (SNCP, MS-SPRing, Linear,
etc.).
Note Changing the IIOP listener port in the NE defaults requires a reboot of the node in order for the
default change to occur. Use caution when changing this default setting.
C.2 Card Default Settings
The tables in this section list the default settings for each card. Cisco provides settings that are
pre-provisioned for the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH optical and electrical cards, including:
Soak Time (all cards) is the length of time that elapses between an AINS port receiving a valid signal
and when it automatically changes to in-service status.
