Provision Transponder and Muxponder Cards
This chapter explains how to provision transponder (TXP) and muxponder (MXP) cards. The provisioning must be performed before you provision the dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) network and create circuits.
Note Unless otherwise specified, "ONS 15454" refers to both ANSI and ETSI shelf assemblies.
Before You Begin
Before performing any of the following procedures, investigate all alarms and clear any trouble conditions. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide or the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide as necessary.
Caution Provisioning TXPs and MXPs can be service affecting. You should make all changes during a scheduled maintenance window.
This section lists the chapter procedures (NTPs). Turn to a procedure for applicable tasks (DLPs).
1. G128 Manage Pluggable Port Modules—Complete this procedure to provision a multirate pluggable port module (PPM), provision or change the optical line rate of a PPM, or delete a PPM. PPMs provide the fiber interface to the TXP and MXP cards. With the exception of the TXP_MR_10G card, all TXPs and MXP accept PPMs.
2. G33 Create a Y-Cable Protection Group—Complete this procedure, as needed, for TXP and MXP cards that will be protected with Y-cable protection.
3. G96 Modify Line Settings and PM Parameter Thresholds for TXP_MR_10G and TXP_MR_10E Cards—As needed, complete this procedure to change the transmission settings for TXP_MR_10G and TXP_MR_10E cards.
4. G97 Modify Line Settings and PM Parameter Thresholds for MXP_2.5G_10G and MXP_2.5G_10E Cards—As needed, complete this procedure to change the transmission settings for MXP_2.5G_10G and MXP_2.5G_10E cards.
5. G98 Modify Line Settings and PM Parameter Thresholds for TXP_MR_2.5G and TXPP_MR_2.5G Cards—As needed, complete this procedure to change the transmission settings for TXP_MR_2.5G and TXPP_MR_2.5G cards.
6. G99 Modify Line Settings and PM Parameter Thresholds for MXP_MR_2.5G and MXPP_MR_2.5G Cards—As needed, complete this procedure to change the transmission settings for MXP_MR_2.5G and MXPP_MR_2.5G cards.
NTP-G128 Manage Pluggable Port Modules
Note The hardware device that plugs into a TXP or MXP card faceplate to provide a fiber interface to the card is called a Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP). In Cisco Transport Controller (CTC), SFPs are called PPMs.
Step 1 Complete the "DLP-G46 Log into CTC" task to log into an ONS 15454 on the network. If you are already logged in, continue with Step 2.
Step 2 Click the Alarms tab:
a. Verify that the alarm filter is not turned on. See the "DLP-G128 Disable Alarm Filtering" task as necessary.
b. Verify that no unexplained conditions appear on the network. If unexplained conditions appear, resolve them before continuing. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide or the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide.
c. Complete the "DLP-G114 Export CTC Data" task to export alarm and condition information.
Step 3 Complete the "DLP-G277 Provision a Multirate PPM" task. If you preprovisioned a multirate PPM ( DLP-G273 Preprovision an SFP or XFP Slot, page 3-46), skip this step and continue with Step 4. Single-rate PPMs do not require provisioning.
Step 4 If you are provisioning an IBM External Time Reference - Control Link Oscillator (ETR_CLO) or InterSystem Coupling link (ISC) service on the PPM, complete "DLP-G274 Verify Topologies for ETR_CLO and ISC Services" task. Otherwise, continue with Step 5.
Step 5 Complete the "DLP-G278 Provision the Optical Line Rate" task to assign a line rate to a TXP or MXP port.
Step 6 Complete the "DLP-G279 Change the Optical Line Rate" task as needed. Table 5-1 lists the available rates for each TXP and MXP card.
Step 7 Complete the "DLP-G280 Delete a PPM" task as needed.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
DLP-G277 Provision a Multirate PPM
Purpose
This task provisions a multirate PPM in CTC. If the PPM was preprovisioned using the "DLP-G273 Preprovision an SFP or XFP Slot" task on page 3-46, or the SFP or XFP is physically installed, this task is unnecessary unless the PPM has an Out-of-Service and Autonomous Management, Unassigned (OOS-AUMA,UAS) (ANSI) or unlocked-disabled, unassigned (ETSI) service state.

Note Loss of Pointer Path (LOP-P) alarms can occur on a split signal if the ports are not in a Y-cable protection group.
Step 1 View the Cisco MetroPlanner Traffic Matrix (see Table 3-1 on page 3-3) for your site. Verify the TXP or MXP cards that need Y-cable protection groups. (Cards requiring Y-cable protection are indicated with "Y-Cable" in the Traffic Matrix table Protection Type column. Refer to the Cisco MetroPlanner DWDM Operations Guide for more information.)
Step 2 Verify that the TXP or MXP cards are installed according to the requirements specified in Table 5-2. This table describes the protection types available in the ONS 15454 for DWDM client cards.
Step 3 Verify that PPMs are provisioned for the same payload and payload rate on the TXP and MXP cards where you will create the Y-cable protection group.
•Display the TXP or MXP card in card view. Click the Provisioning > Pluggable Port Module tabs. Verify that a PPM is provisioned in the Pluggable Port Module area, and the payload type and rate is provisioned for it in the Selected PPM area.
The PPM payload and payload rate must be the same for both TXP or MXP cards. If they are not the same, for example, if the PPM payload and payload rate are not the same, you must either change the provisioned payload rate to match, or replace the PPM (SFP or XFP).
Step 4 In node view, click the Provisioning > Protection tabs.
Step 5 In the Protection Groups area, click Create.
Step 6 In the Create Protection Group dialog box, enter the following:
•Name—Type a name for the protection group. The name can have up to 32 alphanumeric (a-z, A-Z, 0-9) characters. Special characters are permitted. For TL1 compatibility, do not use question mark (?), backslash (\), or double quote (") characters.
•Type—Choose Y Cable from the drop-down list.
•Protect Port—From the drop-down list, choose the port that will be the standby or protection port to the active port. The list displays the available transponder or muxponder ports. If transponder or muxponder cards are not installed, no ports appear in the drop-down list.
After you choose the protect port, a list of available working ports appear in the Available Ports list, as shown in Figure 5-5. If no cards are available, no ports appear. If this occurs, you can not complete this task until you install the physical cards or preprovision the ONS 15454 slots using the "NTP-G29 Preprovision a Slot" procedure on page 3-37.
Figure 5-5 Creating a Y-Cable Protection Group
Step 7 From the Available Ports list, choose the port that will be protected by the port you selected in Protect Ports. Click the top arrow button to move the port to the Working Ports list.
Step 8 Complete the remaining fields:
•Revertive—Check this check box if you want traffic to revert to the working port after failure conditions remain corrected for the amount of time entered in the Reversion Time field.
•Reversion time—If Revertive is checked, select a reversion time from the drop-down list. The range is 0.5 to 12.0 minutes. The default is 5.0 minutes. Reversion time is the amount of time that will elapse before the traffic reverts to the working card. The reversion timer starts after conditions causing the switch are cleared.
Step 9 Click OK.
Step 10 Repeat this procedure for every protection indicated in the Cisco MetroPlanner Traffic Matrix.

DLP-G218 Change Section Trace Settings for the TXP_MR_10G and TXP_MR_10E Cards
Note The Section Trace tab is available for the TXP_MR_10G and TXP_MR_10E cards only if no PPM or an OC192 PPM has been provisioned. The tab is not available if a TEN_GE LAN Phy or FC10G PPM has been provisioned.
Step 1 In node view, double-click the TXP_MR_10G or TXP_MR_10E card where you want to change the section trace settings.
Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Line > Section Trace tabs.

Step 1 In node view, double-click the TXP_MR_10G or TXP_MR_10E card where you want to change the line threshold settings.
Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Line Thresholds > SONET Thresholds tabs.
Step 3 Modify any of the settings described in Table 5-6.
Note You must modify Near End and Far End independently; 15 Min and 1 Day independently; and Line and Section independently. To do so, choose the appropriate radio button and click Refresh.
Step 4 Click Apply.
Step 5 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
DLP-G319 Change the TXP_MR_10G or TXP_MR_10E Card Line Thresholds for 10G Ethernet LAN Phy
Step 1 Display the TXP_MR_10G or TXP_MR_10E card where you want to change the line threshold settings in card view.
Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Line Thresholds > RMON Thresholds tabs.
Step 3 Click Create. The Create Threshold dialog box appears.
Step 4 From the Port drop-down list, choose the applicable port.
Step 5 From the Variable drop-down list, choose an Ethernet variable. See Table 5-7 for a list of available Ethernet thresholds.
Step 6 From the Alarm Type drop-down list, indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold, falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.
Step 7 From the Sample Type drop-down list, choose either Relative or Absolute. Relative restricts the threshold to use the number of occurrences in the user-set sample period. Absolute sets the threshold to use the total number of occurrences, regardless of time period.
Step 8 Type in an appropriate number of seconds for the Sample Period.
Step 9 Type in the appropriate number of occurrences for the Rising Threshold.
For a rising type of alarm, the measured value must move from below the falling threshold to above the rising threshold. For example, if a network is running below a rising threshold of 1000 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.
Step 10 Enter the appropriate number of occurrences in the Falling Threshold field. In most cases a falling threshold is set lower than the rising threshold.
A falling threshold is the counterpart to a rising threshold. When the number of occurrences is above the rising threshold and then drops below a falling threshold, it resets the rising threshold. For example, when the network problem that caused 1001 collisions in 15 seconds subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 seconds, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over a 1000 per 15-second period, an event again triggers when the rising threshold is crossed. An event is triggered only the first time a rising threshold is exceeded (otherwise, a single network problem might cause a rising threshold to be exceeded multiple times and cause a flood of events).
Step 11 Click OK.

DLP-G320 Change the TXP_MR_2.5G or TXPP_MR_2.5G Card Line Thresholds for 1G Ethernet or 1G FC/FICON Payloads
Step 1 Display the TXP_MR_2.5G or TXPP_MR_2.5G card where you want to change the line threshold settings in card view.
Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Line Thresholds > RMON Thresholds tabs.
Step 3 Click Create. The Create Threshold dialog box appears.
Step 4 From the Port drop-down list, choose the applicable port.
Step 5 From the Variable drop-down list, choose an Ethernet variable. See Table 5-33 for a list of available Ethernet thresholds.
Step 6 From the Alarm Type drop-down list, indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold, falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.
Step 7 From the Sample Type drop-down list, choose either Relative or Absolute. Relative restricts the threshold to use the number of occurrences in the user-set sample period. Absolute sets the threshold to use the total number of occurrences, regardless of time period.
Step 8 Type in an appropriate number of seconds for the Sample Period.
Step 9 Type in the appropriate number of occurrences for the Rising Threshold.
For a rising type of alarm, the measured value must move from below the falling threshold to above the rising threshold. For example, if a network is running below a rising threshold of 1000 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.
Step 10 Enter the appropriate number of occurrences in the Falling Threshold field. In most cases a falling threshold is set lower than the rising threshold.
A falling threshold is the counterpart to a rising threshold. When the number of occurrences is above the rising threshold and then drops below a falling threshold, it resets the rising threshold. For example, when the network problem that caused 1001 collisions in 15 seconds subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 seconds, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over a 1000 per 15-second period, an event again triggers when the rising threshold is crossed. An event is triggered only the first time a rising threshold is exceeded (otherwise, a single network problem might cause a rising threshold to be exceeded multiple times and cause a flood of events).
