Procedure 5-33: Clear "far end not LCAS" condition

Overview

This procedure is used to clear the far end not LCAS condition.

Before you begin

Prior to performing this procedure:

Refer to Before you begin and Required equipment in this chapter.
Refer to Laser safety and Electrostatic discharge in Chapter 1, Safety.

Steps

Complete the following steps to clear a far end not LCAS condition.

From the WaveStar^® CIT System View, click the Alarm List button and locate the far end not LCAS condition in the resulting alarm list and note the corresponding VCG AID.

Using circuit layouts and/or office records, identify the far-end network element for the specified VCG.

Use the WaveStar^® CIT to log in to the required far-end Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend for the specified VCG.

Procedure 6-2: Connect Personal Computer (PC) and establish WaveStar^® CIT session

From the System View, select Reports → Equipment Lists → Pack. Select Shelf and click Select.

Result:

The Circuit Pack List appears.

Important!

The LNW63 GBE PL Gigabit Ethernet, LNW70 100/1G-FXS Gigabit Ethernet and LNW74 10/100 Base FX/TX Enhanced Private Line Ethernet circuit packs support LCAS operation.

Using the Circuit Pack List and office records, determine if the far-end Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend supports LCAS.

If the far-end Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend...	Then...
supports LCAS and LCAS operation is desired,	go to Step 7 and enable LCAS for the required VCG at the far end.
supports LCAS and LCAS operation is not desired,	Disconnect the WaveStar^® CIT from the far-end Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend and go to Step 10 to disable LCAS on the required VCG at the near end (local).
does not support LCAS,	Disconnect the WaveStar^® CIT from the far-end Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend and go to Step 10 to disable LCAS on the required VCG at the near end (local).

From the System View at the far end, select Configuration → Equipment. Expand the required Ethernet circuit pack details and select the required VCG port being provisioned. Click Select.

Select the LCAS tab. Provision the LCAS parameters, as required. Click Apply.

Result:

A dialog box appears asking you to confirm executing this command. Click Yes. Click Close to exit window.

Disconnect the WaveStar^® CIT from the far-end Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend.

STOP! End of Procedure.

From the System View at the near end, select Configuration → Equipment. Expand the required Ethernet circuit pack details and select the required VCG port being provisioned. Click Select.

Select the LCAS tab and disable the LCAS mode. Click Apply.

Result:
