NTP-F90 Initiate a Manual or Force Switch in a 1+1 Protection Group
Step1
Complete the "DLP-F36 Log into CTC" task on the ONS15600SDH node where you want to switch the protection group. If you are already logged in, continue with Step 2.
Step2
Complete the "DLP-F145 Initiate a Manual Switch on a Port in a 1+1 Protection Group" task as needed.
Step3
Complete the "DLP-F146 Initiate a Force Switch on a Port in a 1+1 Protection Group" task as needed.
Step4
Complete the "DLP-F147 Clear a Manual or Force Switch in a 1+1 Protection Group" task as needed.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
DLP-F145 Initiate a Manual Switch on a Port in a 1+1 Protection Group
Step1
In node view, click the Maintenance > Protection tabs.
Step2
In the Protection Group area, select the protection group that contains the port you want to switch.
In the Selected Group area, each port is identified as Working or Protect. Each port also has a status:
•
Active—The port is carrying traffic.
•
Standby—The port is not carrying traffic.
•
[MANUAL TO WORKING]—A Manual switch has moved traffic to the Working port.
•
[MANUAL TO PROTECT]—A Manual switch has moved traffic to the Protect port.
•
[FORCE TO WORKING]—A Force switch has moved traffic to the Working port.
•
[FORCE TO PROTECT]—A Force switch has moved traffic to the Protect port.
The normal assignment status is for one port assignment to be Working/Active and for the other to be Protect/Standby.
Step3
In the Selected Group, click the port that you want to switch. For example, if you want to switch traffic from the working port to the protect port, click the working port.
Step4
Click Manual .
If the Manual switch is successful, CTC shows both ports as [MANUAL TO PROTECT] (or [MANUAL TO WORKING]). This indicates that the ONS 15600 SDH system has been able to carry out the switch request and has moved traffic from one port to the other.
If the Bidirectional switching check box on the Provisioning > Protection tab in node view is checked, both the near-end and far-end nodes switch to the designated protection ports. For example, if the near-end node has a loss of signal (LOS), it switches to the protection port and transmits a switch request to the far-end node to switch to the protection port also. This ensures that both nodes process traffic from the same span.
If the Bidirectional switching check box is not selected, the near-end and far-end nodes switch independently of each other. For example, if the near-end node has an LOS on its working port, it switches to the protection port. If the far-end node does not have a LOS, traffic remains on the working port.
If the Manual switch is not successful, CTC continues to show the ports as active and standby, and an alarm such as FAILTOSWS is raised. This failure occurs because the target port is not available and troubleshooting is required. For information about troubleshooting, refer to the Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Troubleshooting Guide.
Step5
Click the node view Conditions tab and click Retrieve to see new events. The switch procedure raises a MANUAL-REQ-SPAN condition that is visible in the window unless Not Alarmed conditions have been filtered out from the view.
Step6
Click the node view Alarms tab.
If any traffic loss alarms occur or if a switching failure alarm such as FAILTOSWS occurs, troubleshoot the alarms that have prevented the switch and attempt the switch procedure again.
Step7
Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
DLP-F146 Initiate a Force Switch on a Port in a 1+1 Protection Group
Step1
In node view, click the Maintenance > Protection tabs.
Step2
In the Protection Group area, select the protection group that contains the port you want to switch.
In the Selected Group area, each port is identified as Working or Protect. Each port also has a status:
•
Active—The port is carrying traffic.
•
Standby—The port is not carrying traffic.
•
[MANUAL TO WORKING]—A Manual switch has moved traffic to the working port.
•
[MANUAL TO PROTECT]—A Manual switch has moved traffic to the protect port.
•
[FORCE TO WORKING]—A Force switch has moved traffic to the working port.
•
[FORCE TO PROTECT]—A Force switch has moved traffic to the protect port.
The normal status is for one port to be Working/Active and the other to be Protect/Standby.
Step3
In the Selected Group area, select the port that you want to switch. For example, if you want to switch traffic from the working port to the protect port, click the working port.
Step4
Click Force .
If the Force switch is successful, CTC shows both ports as [FORCE TO PROTECT] (or [FORCE TO WORKING]). This indication is shown whether or not the ONS 15600 SDH system has been able to move traffic from one port to the other.
If the Bidirectional switching check box in node view under Provisioning > Protection tabs, is checked, both the near-end and far-end nodes switch to the designated protection ports. For example, if the near-end node has a LOS, it switches to the protection port and transmits a switch request to the far-end node to switch to the protection port also. This ensures that both nodes process traffic from the same span.
If the Bidirectional switching check box is not selected, the near-end and far-end nodes switch independently of each other. For example, if the near-end node has an LOS on its working port, it switches to the protection port. If the far-end node does not have a LOS, traffic remains on the working port.
If the Force switch is unsuccessful, clear the switch immediately using the "DLP-F147 Clear a Manual or Force Switch in a 1+1 Protection Group" task , and then troubleshoot the problems preventing the switch by referring to the Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Troubleshooting Guide.
Step5
Click the node view Conditions tab and click Retrieve to see new events. The switch procedure raises a FORCED-REQ-SPAN condition that is visible in the window unless Not Alarmed conditions have been filtered out from the view.
Step6
Click the Alarms tab.
No new traffic loss alarms or failure-to-switch alarms should have been raised.
Step7
Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
