Chapter 4 Provisioning
Connect Through a Telnet Session Procedure (Optional)
You have now assigned the IP address to the ONS 15216 EDFA. You must save these changes prior to
terminating the session. You must also reboot the system to make the IP address active. Use the
processor reset command. (See the “processor reset Command” section on page 6-8.)
Connect Through a Telnet Session Procedure (Optional)
Provisioning of the ONS 15216 EDFA2 can be accomplished entirely through the RS-232 port using CLI
or SNMP commands. After an IP address is assigned, it is easier to provision the ONS 15216 EDFA2
using Telnet or an SNMP manager. A Telnet client is needed for CLI commands over IP. A generic
SNMP manager is required for SNMP management over IP. After connecting the ONS 15216 EDFA2
to the network through its RJ-45 port, the user can configure the module to accept SNMP and CLI
commands via Telnet using the following procedure:
Note To perform this procedure, the ONS 15216 EDFA2 must be connected to the network via the RJ-45 port.
Step 1 Click Start> Run.
Step 2 Type Te lnet followed by the ONS 15216 EDFA2 IP address.
Step 3 Log in again, using the instructions in Login Procedure, page 4-1.
You are now connected via Telnet.
Set Power Bus Mode (Simplex or Duplex)
The ONS 15216 EDFA2 allows users to set a simplex (one power source–Bus A) or duplex (redundant
power source–Bus A and Bus B) power bus mode. Use the snmp attribute set local
cerent15216EdfaPowerBusMode command to set the desired power bus mode. The default mode is
duplex. See Example 4-4.

Verify Amplifier Operational Status
To ensure that the amplifier is working correctly on the optical level, you must verify the amplifier
operational status. Use the snmp table display local cerent15216EdfaOverallStatusGroup command
to verify amplifier operational status. Example 4-5 displays the output of this command.
