Graphical User Interface
The CTC graphical user interface (GUI), also called the CTC window, provides
three primary views, or modes, that include:
• Network view—Provides information about the ONS 15454 network and
displays a graphic of the United States with ONS 15454 nodes represented by
colored icons. The color of the icon represents the node status, and you can
perform network management tasks or display any node. See the
“Customized Network View” section on page 20 for information about
changing the default network map and adding domains.
• Node view—Provides information about the node and displays a graphic of
the ONS 15454 shelf. This is the default view displayed each time you log
into CTC, and you perform node management tasks in this view. The cards
are color-coded to show the status of the physical cards and ports.
• Card view—Provides information about individual ONS 15454 cards and
displays a graphic of the selected card. You perform card and port-specific
maintenance tasks in this view. The information that displays and the tasks
you can perform depend on the card.
