Overview of the ML-Series Card
This chapter provides an overview of the ML-100T-8 card for Cisco ONS 15310-CL and the Cisco ONS
15310-MA. It lists Ethernet and SONET capabilities and Cisco IOS and Cisco Transport Controller
(CTC) software features, with brief descriptions of selected features.
The CE-100T-8 card for the Cisco ONS 15310-CL and the Cisco ONS 15310-MA is covered in
Chapter 17, “CE-100T-8 Ethernet Operation.” For Ethernet card specifications, refer to the
Cisco ONS 15454 Reference Manual. For step-by-step Ethernet card circuit configuration, hard-reset,
and soft-reset procedures, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide. Refer to the Cisco ONS
SONET TL1 Command Guide for TL1 provisioning commands. For specific details on ONS 15310-CL
Ethernet card interoperability with other ONS platforms, refer to the “POS on ONS Ethernet Cards”
chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 and Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Ethernet Card Software Feature and
Configuration Guide.
This chapter contains the following major sections:
• ML-Series Card Description, page 1-1
• ML-Series Feature List, page 1-2
• Key ML-Series Features, page 1-4
ML-Series Card Description
The ML-Series card is a module in the Cisco ONS 15310-CL and the Cisco ONS 15310-MA. It is an
independent Fast Ethernet switch with eight RJ-45 interfaces. The ML-Series card uses Cisco IOS
Release 12.2(28)SV, and the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) is the primary user interface for
the ML-Series card. Most configuration for the card, such as Ethernet and packet-over-SONET (POS)
port provisioning, bridging, VLAN, and Quality of Service (QoS), can be done only with the Cisco IOS
CLI.
However, CTC—the ONS 15310-CL graphical user interface (GUI)—and Transaction Language One
(TL1) also support the ML-Series card. SONET circuits must be configured through CTC or TL1 and
cannot be provisioned through Cisco IOS. CTC also offers ML-Series card status information, SONET
alarm management, Cisco IOS Telnet session initialization, provisioning, inventory, and other standard
functions.
The ML-Series card features two virtual ports, which function in a manner similar to OC-N card ports.
The SONET circuits are provisioned through CTC in the same manner as standard OC-N circuits.
For detailed card specifications, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Reference Manual.
