DANGER 

NOTICE

Service-disruption hazard

Disconnecting cables and/or replacing pluggable transmission modules may disrupt service.

Before taking action, determine the extent of service disruption caused by disconnecting cables or replacing a pluggable transmission module. Then, perform the action(s) deemed appropriate in light of the traffic being carried and the nature of the failure.

Replace the affected local pluggable transmission module.

Procedure 6-8: Replace pluggable transmission module


11

From the System View, click the Alarm List button and click Refresh.


12

Is the inc. ODU2/OTU2 alarm still present?

If...

Then...

Yes

Remove the replacement pluggable transmission module and return the original pluggable transmission module to the socket, then continue with the next step.

No

STOP! End of Procedure.


13
DANGER 

NOTICE

Service-disruption hazard

Disconnecting cables and/or replacing circuit packs may disrupt service.

Before taking action, determine the extent of service disruption caused by disconnecting cables or replacing a circuit pack. Then, perform the action(s) deemed appropriate in light of the traffic being carried and the nature of the failure.

Replace the affected local XM10G/8 circuit pack.

Reference:

Procedure 6-29: Replace 10G Muxponder circuit pack


14

From the System View, click the Alarm List button and click Refresh.


15

Is the inc. ODU2/OTU2 alarm still present?

If...

Then...

Yes

Remove the replacement circuit pack and return the original circuit pack to the slot, then continue with the next step.

No

STOP! End of Procedure.


16

Important!

At this point, the local network element is operating correctly. The trouble is in the far-end network element or in the network between the far-end network element and the local network element.

Follow local procedures for addressing conditions/alarms at the far-end network element.


17

From the System View at the local network element, click the Alarm List button and click Refresh.


18

Is the inc. ODU2/OTU2 alarm still present?

If...

Then...

Yes

Continue with the next step.

No

STOP! End of Procedure.
