Chapter 2 CTC Operations on the ML-Series Card
Displaying ML-Series POS Ports Provisioning Information on CTC
The following fields can be provisioned using CTC: Port Name, Pre-Service Alarm Suppression (PSAS),
and Soak Time. Click the Port Name field to assign a name to the port. For more information on
provisioning these fields, refer to the “Change Card Settings” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454
Procedure Guide.
Note The port name can also be configured in Cisco IOS. The port name field configured in CTC and the port
name configured in Cisco IOS are independent of each other, and will not match unless the same name
is used to configure the port name in both CTC and Cisco IOS.
The Provisioning > Ether Ports tab displays the following information:
• Port #—The fixed number identifier for the specific port.
• Port Name—Configurable 12-character alphanumeric identifier for the port.
• Admin State—Configured port state, which is administratively active or inactive. Possible values are
UP and DOWN.
• PSAS—A check indicates alarm suppression is set on the port for the time designated in the Soak
Time column.
• Soak Time—Desired soak time in hours and minutes. Use this column when you have checked PSAS
to suppress alarms. Once the port detects a signal, the countdown begins for the designated soak
time. Soak time hours can be set from 0 to 48. Soak time minutes can be set from 0 to 45 in 15 minute
increments.
• Link State—Status between signaling points at port and attached device. Possible values are UP and
DOWN.
• Operating Speed—ML-100T-8 possible values are Auto, 10Mbps, or 100Mbps.
• Operating Duplex—Setting of the port. ML-100T-8 possible values are Auto, Full, or Half.
• Flow Control—Negotiated flow control mode. ML-100T-8 possible values are None or
Symmetrical.
Note Auto indicates the port is set to autonegotiate capabilities with the attached link partner.
Displaying ML-Series POS Ports Provisioning Information on
CTC
The POS ports provisioning window displays the provisioning status of the card’s POS ports. Click the
Provisioning > POS Ports tabs to display this window. For ML-Series cards, the user must configure
ML-Series Ethernet ports and POS ports using the Cisco IOS CLI.
The following fields can be provisioned using CTC: Port Name, PSAS, and Soak Time. Click in the Port
Name field to assign a name to the port. For more information on provisioning these fields, refer to the
“Change Card Settings” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide.
Note The port name can also be configured in Cisco IOS. The port name field configured in CTC and the port
name configured in Cisco IOS are independent of each other and will not match unless the same name
is used to configure the port name in both CTC and Cisco IOS.
