Procedure 10-17: Delete SONET/GbE/Data client signal
Overview
Use this procedure to delete a SONET/GbE/Data client signal from a DWDM network.
Important!
This procedure assumes that the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend is in service and that a client signal is being deleted.
Before you begin
Prior to performing this procedure:
-
Refer to Before you begin and Required equipment in this chapter.
-
Refer to Electrostatic discharge in Chapter 1, Safety.
-
Verify that the work instructions specify the terminating nodes, SONET/GbE/Data signal add/drop optical port addresses and client signal port addresses to be deleted.
Steps
Complete the following steps to delete a SONET/GbE/Data client signal from a DWDM network.
1 |
Using the work instructions, determine the DWDM network configuration and identify the terminating nodes for the client signal to be deleted. Important! It may be helpful to make a sketch of the DWDM network to visualize the path of the optical channel through the network. |
2 |
At the terminating nodes, click the Alarm List button to obtain an NE Alarm List and verify that no alarms are present. Clear all alarms before continuing this procedure. Reference: Alcatel-Lucent 1665 Data Multiplexer Extend (DMXtend) Alarm Messages and Trouble Clearing Guide, 365-372-326 |
3 |
Important! This step may activate the office alarms. The audible alarm may be suppressed by pressing the ACO push button. At the terminating nodes, select Configuration → Equipment to access the required client signal port on the XM10G/8 circuit packs and provision the client signal port Signal Type parameter as STNA. Result: The system reports an unexpected or failed Pluggable Transmission Module alarm. The circuit pack FAULT LED flashes and the port LED (if equipped) is lighted.

4 |
At the terminating nodes, click the Alarm List button to obtain an NE Alarm List and verify that the correct client signal port was provisioned as STNA. |
5 |
At the terminating nodes, disconnect the optical fibers between the required client signal port and the SONET/GbE/Data add/drop optical port. |
6 |
At the terminating nodes, remove the required pluggable transmission module from the XM10G/8 circuit packs and replace with a dust cover. Result: The circuit pack FAULT LED and port LED (if equipped) go off. |
7 |
At the terminating nodes, select Configuration → Update System → Update States to clear the alarms. |
8 |
At the terminating nodes, click the Alarm List button to obtain an NE Alarm List and verify that the alarms are cleared. End of steps |
