Important!
This is not a standalone procedure. Perform this procedure only as directed by Procedure 9-1: Establish high-speed end-to-end Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend network.
Important!
This procedure assumes that the high-speed 0x1 unprotected optical extension is established by interconnecting a Very Large Fabric (VLF) LNW84 OC3/OC12/OC48 Main port or LNW141 OC-192 Main port at the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend node to a far-end node. The Main slot pair of the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend may be connected with the following:
Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX (OC-3/12/48/192 Main slot pair or OC-3/12/48 Function/Growth slot pair): If connecting to an Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX, refer to the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 Data Multiplexer (DMX) User Operations Guide, 365-372-301, as required, when performing this procedure.
Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5 (OC-3/12 Main slot pair): If connecting to an Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5, refer to the Alcatel-Lucent 1850 Transport Service Switch (TSS-5) User Provisioning Guide, 365-372-401, as required, when performing this procedure.
Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend(OC-3/12/48/192 Main slot pair or OC-3/12/48 Function/Growth slot pair): If connecting to the Function/Growth slots of another Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend, refer to Procedure 4-5: Provision unprotected operation on optical ports, as required, when performing this procedure.
This procedure assumes that the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend node has been equipped with the required circuit packs, software has been installed, and the node has passed the looped transmission tests. If not, refer to Chapter 5, Node turnup procedures.
Ignore all alarms until the procedure is complete.
Complete the following steps to establish a high-speed 0x1 optical extension.
1 |
Important! The port Application parameter must be provisioned 0x1 at both ends of the system From the System View menu at the host Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend node, select Configuration → Equipment to access the required Main port and provision the port parameters according to the work instructions. Reference: Procedure 4-4: Provision OLIU circuit packs/ports for service |
2 |
Select View → Equipment to access the Main port provisioned in Step 1 and verify that the port was provisioned correctly. |
3 |
Important! If OSI over DCC is enabled, the LAPD Role parameter must be provisioned differently at each end of an optical span. For example, if the LAPD Role parameter is provisioned to user-side at one end of an optical span, then the LAPD Role parameter must be provisioned network-side at the other end of the optical span. From the System View menu, select Configuration → DCC Terminations and provision the DCC terminations for required DCC port according to the work instructions. Reference: Procedure 6-4: Provision DCC terminations |
4 |
From the System View menu, select View → DCC Terminations, verify that the DCC terminations were provisioned correctly for required DCC port and click Close. |
5 |
Important! Synchronization Autoreconfiguration is only provisionable if the system Timing Mode parameter is Line and the Sync Messaging parameter of all ports is enabled. If the Sync Messaging parameter is enabled at any port in the network, it must be enabled at all ports in the network. If required, provision synchronization functions (for example, timing mode) according to work instructions. Reference: Procedure 6-5: Network Element synchronization provisioning |
6 |
Important! If Remote NE Status is to be used, at least one network element must be provisioned as the Alarm Gateway Network Element (AGNE) in the network. If the network element is designated as the Alarm Gateway Network Element (AGNE), the Alarm Gateway parameter must be provisioned Enabled. From the System View menu, select Administration → Set NE, provision the Remote NE Status, Alarm Group, and Alarm Gateway parameters according to the work instructions, and click OK. Result: A dialog box appears asking you to confirm executing this command. Click Yes. Reference: |
7 |
At the far-end node that is connecting to the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend node, provision the required port, DCC terminations, synchronization, and remote NE status functions according to the work instructions. Refer to the other product's documentation to perform the required provisioning. |
8 |
Connect the optical fibers and verify the integrity of the optical span being established. Reference: Procedure 14-4: Perform connection and verification of optical facility |
9 |
Perform end-to-end optical line test. Reference: Procedure 14-7: Perform end-to-end optical line test on Main OLIUs |
10 |
Click the Alarm List button and verify that no alarms are present. If required, clear any alarms that are present. Reference: Alcatel-Lucent 1665 Data Multiplexer Extend (DMXtend) Alarm Messages and Trouble Clearing Guide, 365-372-326 |
11 |
Important! Establishing service requires that the proper slots in each terminating node be properly equipped with the correct circuit pack(s) for the type of service being established. It also requires numerous cross-connections in each of the nodes representing the path of the required service. Additionally, transmission tests should be performed to verify the continuity and quality of the established circuit. The 0x1 unprotected optical extension is now ready for initial service to be established. Reference: End of steps |
