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 UPSR is established by interconnecting Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend nodes using the OC-3/12/48/192 Main slot pair. However, the Main slot pair of the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend may also be connected in a UPSR 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 DMXplore using OC-3/12 Main slot pair. If connecting to an Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXplore, refer to the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 Data Multiplexer Explore (DMXplore) User Operations Guide, 365-372-332, as required, when performing this procedure.
Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend (OC-3/12/48 Function/Growth slot pair): If connecting to the Function/Growth slots of another Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend, refer to Procedure 9-7: Establish subtending low-speed UPSR, as required, when performing this procedure.
Nodes are provisioned and optical spans are established individually around the UPSR starting with an Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend shelf designated as the starting node. Continue around the UPSR in the same direction until all nodes are provisioned.
This procedure assumes that all Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend shelves have been equipped with the required circuit packs/pluggable transmission modules, software has been installed, and the shelf has passed the looped transmission tests. If not, refer to Chapter 5, Node turnup procedures.
Ignore all alarms until procedure is complete.
Complete the following steps to establish a high-speed UPSR network.

Important! For UPSR applications, the port Application parameter must be provisioned UPSR. From the System View menu at the starting node, select Configuration → Equipment to access the Main 1 and 2 ports 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 1 and 2 ports and verify that the ports were provisioned correctly. | ||||||||
3 |
At each node in the UPSR, provision the port parameters according to the work instructions.
| ||||||||
4 |
Important! 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 at the starting node,
Reference: Procedure 6-4: Provision DCC terminations | ||||||||
5 |
From the System View menu, select View → DCC Terminations, verify that the DCC terminations were provisioned correctly for DCC ports dcc-m1-1 and dcc-m2-1, and click Close. | ||||||||
6 |
At each node in the UPSR, provision the DCC terminations according to the work instructions.
| ||||||||
7 |
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 at the starting node, provision the synchronization functions (for example, timing mode) according to work instructions. Reference: Procedure 6-5: Network Element synchronization provisioning | ||||||||
8 |
At each node in the UPSR, provision the required synchronization functions according to the work instructions.
| ||||||||
9 |
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 at the starting node, 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: | ||||||||
10 |
At each node in the UPSR, provision Remote NE Status functions according to the work instructions.

Beginning with the starting optical span, connect the fibers between the Main-1 circuit pack at the starting node and the adjacent node and verify the integrity of the optical span being established.

Perform end-to-end optical line test. Reference: Procedure 14-7: Perform end-to-end optical line test on Main OLIUs | ||||||||
13 |
Continue around the UPSR in the same direction until all nodes are connected.
| ||||||||
14 |
At each node in the UPSR, 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 | ||||||||

The UPSR is now ready for initial service to be established. 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. Reference: End of steps |
