NTP-E151 Provision an Optical Line Rate
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-E26 Log into CTC” task on page 16-39 to log into an ONS 15600 on the network.
Step 2 Click the Alarms tab:
a. Verify that the alarm filter is not turned on. See the “DLP-E157 Disable Alarm Filtering” task on
page 17-50 as 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 SONET Troubleshooting Guide.
c. Complete the “DLP-E76 Export CTC Data” task on page 16-98 to export alarm and condition
information.
Step 3 In node view, double-click the ASAP card where you want to provision the line rate.
Step 4 Click the Provisioning > Pluggable Port Modules tabs.
Step 5 In the Pluggable Ports pane, click Create. The Create Port dialog box appears.
Step 6 In the Create Port dialog box, complete the following:
• Port—Click the PPM number and port number from the drop-down list. The first number indicates
the PPM and the second number indicates the port number on the PPM. For example, the first PPM
with one port displays as 1-1 and the second PPM with one port displays as 2-1. When a 4PIO is
present on an ASAP card, the port is identified as 4PIO#-PPM#-Port# (for example 4-4-1). The 4PIO
number can be 1 to 4, the PPM number can be 1 to 4, but the port number is always 1.
• Port Type—Click the type of port from the drop-down list. The port type menu displays the
supported port rates on your PPM. See Table 11-1 for definitions of the supported rates on the ASAP
card.
Step 7 Click OK.
Step 8 Repeat Steps 5 through 7 to configure the port rates as needed.
Purpose This procedure provisions the line rate on a multirate pluggable port
module (PPM). Single-rate small-form factor pluggables (SFPs) or 4-port
I/O modules (4PIOs) do not need line rate provisioning.
