! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

General Warnings and Cautions Voltage Precaution Laser Precautions Lift Precautions Static Electricity Precautions Optical Fiber Handling Precautions Fiber Break and Damaged Fiber Precautions Precautions for Handling and Storing Modules Traffic Disruption Precaution

General Warnings and Cautions


Throughout this manual, danger and caution notices are provided in procedures as appropriate. These notices emphasize the safety considerations that should be followed to minimize the potential for personal injury and/or equipment damage.

Voltage Precaution RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY


Warning: Negative 48 volts DC is present in the equipment. Contact can cause personal injury. Take appropriate safety precautions.

A voltage of -48 volts DC is present in the CoreDirector Switch as a power source for normal equipment operation. Depending on the facility, a voltage of either 120 or 230 volts AC is also present for test equipment, tools, and lighting. Personnel should exercise safety precautions when connecting, measuring, and disconnecting all voltage supply lines. Observe the following precautions to avoid voltage shock:
! ! ! !

Never use both hands when working on or near a voltage source. Use the buddy system when working around voltage sources. Ensure that rescue and first aid equipment is available and accessible.

CoreDirector Switch
Laser Precautions LASER RADIATION AVOID EXPOSURE TO BEAM CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT

Introduction

Warning:

Laser emissions may cause eye damage. Never look directly into fiber connectors. Always assume that laser radiation is present even when equipment is turned off. The CoreDirector Switch uses infrared light energy to interface the modules in the system with the external fiber plant and client equipment. The transmission of infrared light energy between the fiber plant and client equipment is performed by fiber cables. The infrared light energy used in Ciena products falls within the invisible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, and this energy is of sufficient magnitude to cause eye injury with indirect exposure and/or skin injury with direct exposure. When working with Ciena equipment, the following general laser precautions must be observed.
!

Ensure that all operators and technicians have satisfactorily completed an approved training course before they work on the system. Never permit unauthorized or untrained personnel to perform service, maintenance, or restoration. Exclude all unauthorized personnel from the immediate area of lightwave transmission systems during installation and service. Never disconnect a lightwave cable or look into the optical connector. Be careful to avoid indirect eye exposure or direct skin exposure to unprotected optical connectors. Wear laser safety goggles whenever in close proximity to lasers. Install protective covers/caps on all optical connectors when they are not in use. Because laser energy is invisible, always assume that exposed optical connectors and cables are energized. Before cleaning a fiber or connector, always make an optical power measurement and/or visual inspection to ensure that the fiber is not energized. Never view an optical fiber with a direct magnification fiber scope without verifying that all lightwave sources on the fiber are turned off.

! !

! ! !

Lift Precautions LIFT WARNING


Warning: The equipment is heavy. Unassisted or improper lifting techniques can cause personal injury. Take appropriate safety precautions.

When lifting or handling materials manually, use only methods that ensure personal safety and protection of the material. Never attempt to lift objects that are too bulky or heavy to handle safely. Whenever possible, push loads instead of pulling them. Pushing uses the strong leg muscles, whereas pulling uses the back muscles, which can be easily strained.

Maintenance and Upgrade Manual February 11, 2005 - Revision A 009-2004-191

Introduction
Observe the following precautions when lifting an object:
!

CoreDirector Switch

Before lifting the load, inspect the route over which the load will be carried for obstructions or spills that could cause slipping or tripping. Inspect the load for sharp edges before lifting. Identify good handholds on the load; these handholds must be able to support the full weight of the object. Avoid twisting or bending when lifting, and carry the load close to the body. When team-lifting, ensure that the load is raised at the same rate and that it rides level to ensure that each person carries equal weight.

! !

! !

Static Electricity Precautions Risk of Damage to Circuit Packs and Backplanes


Caution: This equipment contains Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) sensitive devices. Wear grounding straps when handling equipment and follow ESD procedures.

A damaging static electrical charge can be generated by the rubbing and sliding of materials against each other. Different materials have different potentials of generating and holding a static electric charge. Plastic materials similar to nylon and polyester are capable of generating and holding a potentially large damaging static electricity charge. Materials similar to cotton do not typically have the potential to generate and hold a charge. The buildup of static electricity can be of a sufficient potential to damage electronic circuitry. When working on Ciena equipment or any interconnecting electrical/optical cabling, always wear an approved personnel ground device. Industry experience has shown that all devices containing integrated circuits can be damaged by static electricity that builds up on work surfaces and personnel. The effect of ESD damage may be immediate failure or it may manifest itself as a latent failure affecting the reliability of the equipment. The static charges and discharges are produced by various charging effects of movement and contact with other objects. Dry air allows greater static charges to accumulate on a body. Observe the following precautions to avoid static charges and discharges:
!

Assume that all modules contain solid state electronic components that can be damaged by ESD. When handling modules (that is, storing, installing, removing, and so forth) or when working on the backplane, always wear a grounded wrist strap or wear a heel strap and stand on a grounded, static-dissipating floor mat. Handle all modules by the faceplate or latch and by the top and bottom outermost edges. Never touch the components, conductors, or connector pins. Observe all warning labels on bags and cartons. If possible, do not remove modules from antistatic packaging until they are ready for use. If possible, open all module packaging at a static-safe work station using properly grounded wrist straps and static-dissipating table mats. Always store and transport modules in static-safe packaging. Keep all static-generating material, such as food wrappers, plastics, and styrofoam containers, away from all modules. When removing modules from an enclosure, immediately place them in static-safe packages. Whenever possible, maintain relative humidity above 20 percent.

Optical Fiber Handling Precautions
When handling or connecting optical fibers, observe the following precautions:
! !

Introduction

Always wear safety glasses when handling fibers. After handling optical fibers, wash hands to avoid possible eye injuries caused by invisible fiber fragments on the skin. Avoid indirect eye or direct skin exposure to the ends of optical connectors and fibers, because laser energy may be present. Install protective covers or caps on all fiber optical connectors when they are not in use.

Fiber Break and Damaged Fiber Precautions


If a fiber break occurs or a damaged fiber is seen, observe the following precautions:
! ! ! !

Power off all laser sources to the fiber or disconnect the fiber end from the laser source. Notify the facility manager or supervisor about the damaged or broken fiber. Identify where the fiber is damaged or broken. Be careful when handling damaged or broken optical fibers to avoid eye injuries caused by invisible fiber fragments.

Precautions for Handling and Storing Modules Risk of Damage to Modules and Backplanes
Caution: Remove all optical connector dust caps from modules and backplane before installing modules.

When handling, installing, or removing modules, observe the following precautions.


!

Wear wrist straps or other suitable ESD-grounding devices before touching and/or removing a module from the equipment shelf or ESD-protective packaging. Handle modules by the faceplate only and do not touch the components, printed circuit board, or connector contacts. Ensure the protective covers or caps are installed on all optical connectors when the connectors are not in use. Ensure the backplane protective covers or caps are removed from the modules before installing them in equipment shelves. Store all modules in suitable ESD-protective packaging when they are not installed in an equipment shelf. Do not stack modules directly on or against each other. Store all modules in the original protective packaging container. Do not stack modules without the use of the original protective packaging containers.

! !

Modules must be maintained at all times within the environmental parameters provided in the Telcordia Generic Requirements document references listed in Table 9.

Overview CoreDirector Switch
The CoreDirector Node Manager Graphical User Interface (GUI) displays the alarm LEDs of the node element (CoreDirector Switch or CoreDirector CI Switch) to which it is connected. The displayed LEDs for each switch are as follows:
!

For the CoreDirector Switch, the Node Manager screen displays five LEDs: P (Power) F (Fan) A, B, C (Shelves A, B, and C)

For the CoreDirector CI Switch, the Node Manager screen displays three LEDs: P (Power) F (Fan) A (Shelf A)

MODULE LED OPERATION All modules in the CoreDirector Switches have Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) to indicate module status. There are basic rules for the meanings of each color (that is, red, yellow, and green), as well as for the sequence pattern of LED lighting during operation of the modules. The color rules are as follows:
!

Basic red ruleAn illuminated red LED indicates that the module is not in a legal operating state. A red LED is, therefore, illuminated during any boot, initial configuration, or initialization state; in addition, a red LED lights when there is a reset or module failure. If a yellow LED is present on the module, it may supply additional information about the module. Basic yellow ruleAn illuminated yellow LED indicates that the module is in a maintenance state, such as Admin Locked. The yellow LED may also supply additional state information about a module when a red or green LED is illuminated. Basic green ruleAn illuminated green LED indicates that the module is active. OnThe LED lights steadily. OffThe LED is dark. FlashingThe LED cycles on and off in equal time periods. WinkingThe LED cycles on and off with a significantly longer on period than off period.

The following terms are used in describing LED patterns.


! ! ! !

During operation, all system modules follow the basic module states pattern described in the next section. Modules that have local processors with downloadable code (Line Module, Control Module, and Timing Module) follow the module boot sequence pattern described in Table 1-3. Modules with redundant backup or an active secondary (Control Module, Timing Module, and Switch Module) follow the redundant module states pattern described in Table 1-4 on page 7. BASIC MODULE STATES PATTERN The Basic Module States Pattern (Table 1-2) applies to all modules. Table 1-2. Basic Module States Pattern Yellow Off Flashing On On Red Green Off Off State Module is held in Reset state, or there is a hardware failure, or software is not yet running from local flash memory. Run-time image diagnostics, configuration, or initialization is taking place.

The I/O panel is covered by a metal protective cover with the connectors exposed for access. It provides electrical connectors for all system I/O signals. Connections are made from the I/O panel to the backplane by board-stacking connectors. The I/O signals are distributed to the modules through backplane circuit traces.

I/O Panel in the CoreDirector Switch I/O MODULE IN THE COREDIRECTOR CI SWITCH In the CoreDirector CI Switch, I/O connections are provided by an I/O module (Figure 1-8) that is installed in the upper middle part of the single module shelf. This I/O module provides external electrical connectors for all system I/O signals. Architecturally, the two rows of connectors on the I/O module each feed signals through the backplane to either the primary CM (A-CM1) and the primary TM (A-TM1) or the redundant CM (A-CM2) and redundant TM (A-TM2).

CoreDirector Switch

Alarm connectorProvides an output to a potential LED display in a central office, audible alarms, ACO sense inputs, user-defined relay outputs, and power fail relay output. These pins are chosen without regard to a particular standard. The P and N signals are matched on opposing rows on the connector. On the CoreDirector CI Switch, the Alarm connector presents both Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) - form C dry contact closures. The Alarm interface uses a DB-62 female connector. The CoreDirector CI Switch provides Critical, Major, Minor, and power fail contacts. In addition, the CoreDirector CI Switch also provides four NO general-purpose dry contact closures and eight general-purpose dry contact closure inputs. The general-purpose signals may be user-defined for environmental or other external alarm conditions.

PDU connector (CoreDirector Switch only)Provides an I/O conduit between the PDU and Fan Modules to the PDU display.

OPTICAL PORT CONNECTORS Optical interfaces on CoreDirector Switches use SC, LC, and MTP connectors. On LM-8 Line Modules, the connectors are recessed behind the faceplates of the OMs. An OM must be partially removed from the Line Module in order to access the optical connectors. On the LM-2 Line Modules, the connectors are on the front of the OM faceplate. The LM-16 optical interfaces are on the front of the module faceplate and use LC-type connectors on a 1.6mm or 2.0mm Simplex fiber assembly. The LC-type port connectors on the LM-16 are not physically compatible with SC-type connectors and require SC-to-LC adapter cables in cases where LC-type terminated site fiber is not available.

Equipment Shelves and Component Locations


Locations of the hardware components in the CoreDirector Switch rack or chassis are identified as a combination of shelf, slot, and subslot (or port) references (for example, A-1-8). The following sections describe how the hardware components are identified looking at the front of the system. SYSTEM SHELVES The CoreDirector Switch modules are installed in shelves that are lettered for identification by management software (Figure 1-11). In the CoreDirector Switch, the top shelf of Line Modules is Shelf A, and the bottom shelf of Line Modules is Shelf C. The middle shelf of Switch Modules and Timing Modules is Shelf B. In the CoreDirector CI Switch, the single shelf for all system modules is called Shelf A.

Slot Numbering in the CoreDirector CI Switch OPTICAL MODULES AND PORTS Optical modules and ports are identified by their position in a Line Module and by the slot in which the Line Module resides. The optical modules or ports are logically numbered from top to bottom in the module, as follows:
!

On an LM-2 Line Module the optical modules are numbered 1 through 2. Example - A-4-1 and A-4-2 On an LM-8 Line Module the optical modules are numbered 1 through 8. Example - A-3-1 through A-3-8 On an LM-16 Line Module the ports are numbered 1 through 16. Example - A-2-1 through A-2-16 On an LM-20 Line Module the optical port groups are numbered 1 and 2 and each port group has optical ports numbered 1 through 10. Example - A-1-1-1 through A1-1-10 and A-1-2-1 through A1-2-10

This numbering scheme applies to both Shelf A and Shelf C in the CoreDirector Switch. For example, the optical modules on an LM-8 module in slot A-3 are identified as A-3-1 through A-3-8. On an LM-8 module in slot C-3, the optical modules are still numbered top to bottom, this time as C-3-1 through C-3-8.Figure 114 illustrates the numbering scheme in each type of Line Module. Note: Optical Modules are not physically labeled on the front panel of the Line Module. Slot numbers are for reference only.

CoreDirector Switch Operations

CHAPTER 2 OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
The CoreDirector Switch or CoreDirector CI Switch system operations tasks ensure continued operations of all system components in the network. Authorized users normally perform the software-based system operations tasks using the Switching Network Manager software, Transaction Language One (TL1) interface, or the Node Manager software. System operations tasks may also be performed by a craftsperson at the location of the CoreDirector Switch. For software-related tasks, the craftsperson can access the CoreDirector Switch locally using the CoreDirector Node Manager software. The instructions in the Task-Oriented Practices (TOPs) serve as job aids to assist the user in performing the operations tasks. Table 2-1 lists the Operations TOPs (provided in Chapter 4 of this manual). Table 2-1.

HARDWARE OPERATIONS
Daily operation of a CoreDirector Switch requires little or no equipment handling. Most system operations tasks are performed using one or more of the software interfaces. The visual indicators described in Chapter 1 (see page 1-4) provide high-level information about the general operating health of the system. (These indicators are represented in the Node Manager GUI; see page 1-6.) This chapter shows the locations of the LEDs on CoreDirector Switch modules; these LEDs can provide information about the operating state of the module or individual ports. Chapter 1, Overview, provides information about hardware controls, indicators, and connectors. The CoreDirector Switch System Description Manual provides additional system details.

CoreDirector Switch Maintenance

CHAPTER 3 MAINTENANCE
OVERVIEW
CoreDirector Switch or CoreDirector CI Switch system maintenance ensures continued performance of all system components in the network. Maintenance tasks can involve direct handling of the equipment or can be software-related tasks. Authorized personnel perform the software-related maintenance tasks using the Craft Interface, the TL1 command set, or the Node Manager software. The publications listed in Table 3 on page xvi of this manual provide detailed information about the software interfaces. Maintenance tasks can be divided into the following three categories:
!

PreventiveRoutine tasks performed to ensure that the customers traffic operations are uninterrupted. CorrectiveTasks performed, usually in response to alarm condition(s), to repair or replace one or more system components no longer operating within their specified parameters. System UpgradesTasks performed to incorporate hardware or software enhancements.

The instructions in the Task-Oriented Practices (TOPs) serve as job aids to assist the user in performing the maintenance tasks. Table 3-1 lists the Maintenance TOPs (provided in Chapter 4 of this manual).

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
CoreDirector Switch preventive maintenance consists of two types of activities:
!

Constant system performance monitoring to detect and correct degraded system performance before customer traffic is affected Fan filter maintenance

Fan Filter Maintenance


Ciena recommends that CoreDirector Switch air filters be removed and replaced every six months. Although the filters are washable, washing the filters is not recommended because cleaning removes the flame retardant coating. Replacing the filters every six months will ensure minimal contamination based on the environment and fan speed. It should be noted cleanliness varies from site to site. The CoreDirector Switch does not have the means to detect a particular percentage of reduction in air flow due to variables associated with the site and environment. The identified filters will remove 83 percent of all particles and meet UL and Bellcore NEBS standards. Note: Air filters play a vital role in allowing sufficient airflow to be channelled through the CoreDirector Switch chassis.

SYMPTOM There are no apparent signs that warrant or flag the necessity of an air filter replacement other than periodic Inspection and adhering to an established site maintenance schedule. An excessively dirty air filter, if not replaced, could cause airflow problems resulting in bay cooling alarms generated by the CoreDirector Switch.

Maintenance
MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES Ciena recommends the following to minimize air filter airflow restriction:
! !

CoreDirector Switch

Establish a maintenance schedule that identifies air filter replacement every six months. Replace the air filters (listed below) with factory replacement filters using TOP 032D. CoreDirector air filter, Ciena Part Number 410-6074-100 and Ciena part name Air Filter. CoreDirector CI air filter, Ciena Part Number 399-8005-001 and Ciena part name Air Filter.

Following these guidelines will help minimize issues associated with operating the CoreDirector Switch without adequate airflow for extended periods of time. To acquire air filters or additional information, refer to the section, Contacting Ciena inside the cover page of this manual, and contact Ciena Technical Support.

CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE
Corrective maintenance is performed in response to system alarms. The integral alarm system monitors critical system and module components and signals (optical and electrical) and initiates an alarm each time that a specified threshold is exceeded. The system simultaneously indicates alarms on the LEDs of the modules and sends alarms to the Switching Network Manager. When the system indicates an alarm, the control center tries to clear the alarm. If the alarm cannot be cleared at the control center, the control center dispatches a technician to perform corrective action. If the technician isolates the trouble to a faulty module, the technician replaces the faulty module with a good spare. The technician returns faulty module to the Ciena Repair Depot for testing and repair. (Refer to TOP 072D Ciena Return Material Authorization (RMA) Procedure, for instructions to return components.)

SYSTEM UPGRADES
A Technical Support technician performs system hardware and software upgrades as required.

Traffic Disruption Risk


Caution: Performance of the following step may cause a traffic disruption. This instruction is intended as a general guide only, has not been tested for all possible applications or configurations, and may not be complete or accurate for some situations. Circuit breaker modules can be changed individually on a per-feed basis (A or B battery); while one circuit breaker is removed, the other feed keeps the CoreDirector Switch operational. Therefore, at the Battery Distribution Fuse Bay (BDFB), turn off only the circuit breaker corresponding to the circuit breaker module requiring removal or installation. If for some reason the desired individual feed (A or B battery) cannot be turned off, the circuit breaker module can be removed or installed with the feed power left on, as long as the circuit breaker module is switched to the OFF position.

Note:

This is a single removal and installation procedure. Do not execute this procedure without a replacement circuit breaker module available. This procedure consists of two tasks:

Task Oriented Practices (TOPS)

STEP 1: Using one of the following methods, identify the primary and secondary CM: At the CoreDirector Switch, observe the ACTIVE LED on the CM. Flashing indicates secondary CM and solid indicates primary CM. Note the CM roles. Establish a HyperTerminal (TOP 194D) to one of the CMs and log on using the appropriate username and password. (The default user name is superuser and the default password superuser1!.) From the CM CLI menu, type 2 to display general information about this CM and press Enter. Note the CM role. Establish a remote Telnet session to one of the CMs and log on using the appropriate username and password. (The default user name is superuser and the default password superuser1!.) From the Windows Start menu, select Run. Type telnet <CoreDirector IP address> and press Enter. From the CM CLI menu, type 2 to display general information about this CM and press Enter. Note the CM role. Establish a CoreDirector Node Manager session and click Go > Inventory. Select the desired CM from the Equipment tree and check standby status in the Details frame. Hot Standby indicates the secondary module. In Service indicates the primary module. STEP 2: If the Secondary CM requires removal, skip to Step 5. If the Primary CM requires removal, use one of the following methods to determine secondary CM synchronization state: At the CoreDirector Switch, observe the red Fail and yellow MAINT LED on the CM are off and the green ACTIVE LED is winking. Connect to the Secondary CM and from the CM CLI Menu, type 2 and press Enter to display general information about this CM. Verify that Current Role is Secondary (DB up to date). If not, secondary has not completed synchronization. Use Node Manager Inventory screen and ensure that Secondary CM Procedural Status is Synchronized and the Operational State is Enable. STEP 3: If the secondary CM is not synchronized with the primary CM, perform TOP 271D Resetting the Secondary Control Module (CM). STEP 4: After the secondary CM reboot and synchronization are complete, perform TOP 270D Resetting the Primary Control Module (CM Switch) to switch the CM role. Note: After a CM switch, the CM takes about three minutes to be fully functional; therefore, OSRP link mesh restoration times are extended.

STEP 5: If required, establish a CoreDirector Node Manager session. STEP 6: Disable secondary CM alarm reporting as follows: Note: Replaceable Unit alarms are reported if module alarm reporting is not disabled.

Risk of Equipment Damage


Caution: Improper module removal could result in bent pins. Follow the removal steps carefully.

Risk of Damage to Circuit Packs and Backplanes


Caution: This equipment contains Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) sensitive devices. Wear grounding straps when handling equipment and follow ESD procedures. Any module left incompletely seated (or partially removed) may cause the system to become susceptible to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) effects. All CoreDirector modules are designed such that when inserted, the air gaps between the faceplates are minimal. This provides a continuous low impedance ground path for Electromagnetic Interference and Susceptibility compliance, ESD compliance, and a path to chassis ground for safety. However, the tight tolerance could cause the module face plate to be bound in the slot and difficult to remove. If required, loosen the faceplate screws of the adjacent modules on either side as needed and then remove the module.

Note:

STEP 10: Simultaneously apply equal pressure and move both the ejectors into the open position (perpendicular to the module faceplate). Take care to use equal pressure and remove the module using the guide rails in a level straight-backward motion. STEP 11: If a cable is connected to the Craft RS-232 port on the CM, disconnect the cable. STEP 12: Place the module in an ESD-guard antistatic bag.

Caution: Improper module installation could result in bent pins. Follow the insertion steps carefully.

Risk of Damage to Circuit Packs and Backplanes


Caution: This equipment contains Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) sensitive devices. Wear grounding straps when handling equipment and follow ESD procedures. Any module left incompletely seated (or partially removed) may cause the system to become susceptible to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) effects. When replacing a module, ensure that the replacement module part number and revision level are correct. All CoreDirector modules are designed such that when inserted, the air gaps between the faceplates are minimal. This provides a continuous low impedance ground path for Electromagnetic Interference and Susceptibility compliance, ESD compliance, and a path to chassis ground for safety. There could be insufficient space for the module face plate to fit securely against the chassis. If required, loosen the faceplate screws of the adjacent modules on either side as needed and then install the module.

Note:

STEP 15: At the front of the CoreDirector Switch, check CM slot backplane connector and verify no bent pins are present. If CoreDirector is suspected of having damage, stop this procedure and contact Ciena Technical Support for assistance. STEP 16: Remove the replacement CM from the ESD-guard antistatic bag by holding the front faceplate and carefully sliding the replacement CM from the ESD-guard antistatic bag. For support of the module, one hand can be placed under the pan (the side without board components). Note: If the circuit pack was incorrectly inserted with the faceplate facing the wrong direction, place one hand under the pan and carefully rotate the circuit pack so the circuit pack can be removed from the bag.

Task Oriented Practices (TOPS) CoreDirector Switch
If the bag is not large enough to rotate the circuit pack, place one hand under the pan and carefully remove the circuit pack from the bag until the face plate can be grabbed. This should be done over a flat surface since there is a possibility of dropping the circuit pack. Never pull the circuit pack out of the bag by applying pressure to the pan and the component boards. Such handling can cause damage to certain boards that do not have added stiffeners to support such pressure (for example, the VI processor daughter board). To prevent damage to circuit packs, always handle the circuit packs by the faceplate side.

Note:

STEP 17: Inspect the module connector block for damage or misalignment. Do this by visually inspecting each of the connector blocks to verify that they are properly seated and flush on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). As a second inspection method, look at the top of all the blocks; they should appear planar and horizontally aligned. Refer to TOP 278D Handling Circuit Packs Properly for additional information. If connector block is suspected of having damage, repeat Step 12 through Step 14 with the damaged module and continue the procedure at Step 15 with another replacement module. STEP 18: Check slot backplane connector and verify no bent pins are present. If backplane connector is suspected of having damage, contact Ciena Technical Support for assistance. STEP 19: Install the module as follows: a. Insert the module into the guide rails of the designated slot. Slowly slide the module into the slot by pushing on the module faceplate until the top and bottom ejectors engage the ejector bracket and begin to rotate as shown in Figure 4-9. Take care to insert the module using the guide rails in a level, straight-forward motion and visually inspect for proper CM faceplate fit while moving both ejectors into the closed position. If required, loosen the faceplate screws of the adjacent modules as needed and then reinstall the circuit pack. b. Simultaneously apply equal pressure to move both the ejectors into the closed position. c. Ensure that the faceplate is flush against the chassis then tighten faceplate screws.

Risk of Equipment Damage


Caution: Improper module insertion could result in bent pins. Carefully install the module in accordance with the following step. Do not engage handles independently.

STEP 20: If required, use Node Manager to enable alarm reporting as follows: a. b. c. d. From the menu bar, select Go > Inventory.

Removing an LM-2 OM STEP 1: Identify each fiber. Tag the fibers with the appropriate OM slot or port and identify Tx and Rx. Tag the OM with the appropriate OM slot. Before disconnecting any fiber cables, observe the fiber cable routing and connections. Ensure that proper routing and connections are maintained when the OM is reinstalled or a new OM is installed. On an LM-2 LM, the fiber connectors are at an angle that causes a cable from one OM to pass across the front of the other installed OM. Before removing an OM, the fiber in front of the module must be safely moved to one side.

Note:

STEP 2: Disconnect the fibers from the OM to be removed and move the disconnected fibers out of the way. If the connector type on the replacement OM is different from the connector type on the original OM, it may be necessary to remove the fiber cables back to the Interbay Management Panel (IMP) or fiber raceway on a CoreDirector Switch or to the fiber management panel on a CoreDirector CI NA or ETSI rack installation.

Note:

STEP 3: Move other fiber cables out of the way as follows: a. At the curved fiber support above or below the LM where the OM is installed, identify the fiber coming from the OM that is not being removed. b. Increase the slack in the identified fiber by slipping the fiber over the lip and off its fiber support; move the fiber to the next support position. c. Move the fiber to the side, and attach it to the neighboring fiber using a loop of Velcro (Figure 4-11). Ensure that the moved fiber is not in the path of the OM to be removed.

c. Carefully slide the OM the rest of the way out of the LM using the OM guide rails. Do not twist or otherwise stress the module. Take care to use equal pressure and remove the module using the guide rails in a level straight-back motion. STEP 4: Place dust covers on the fiber connectors, and place the OM in an ESD-guard antistatic bag. If the OM is not immediately replaced with a spare, use the Node Manager session to administratively remove the module from inventory (Step 5). Close the open slot by installing an Optical Module filler panel model OM-BLANK-8 or OM-BLANK-8-A. Install protective caps over the connectors of the disconnected fibers and end this procedure. No further action is required.

Note:

If the OM to be installed is the same as the model that was removed, proceed to Step 6. If the OM to be installed is a different type from the one that was removed, perform Step 5. STEP 5: When an OM is replaced by one of a different type or is not replaced with a spare, the physically removed OM must also be administratively removed from the system using Node Manager. To remove the OM using Node Manager, perform the following steps: Note: If applicable, remove the OM from any protection group or Test Access Port (TAP) association before deleting the OM.

a. From the Node Manager menu bar, select Go > Inventory. b. From the equipment tree, click the icon of the removed OM. c. In the details frame, click Delete. Observe that the OM is removed from the equipment tree. STEP 6: Perform the required Return Material Authorization (RMA) procedure in accordance with TOP 072D Ciena Return Material Authorization (RMA) Procedure. Installing Replacement OMs with Dissimilar Connector Types Because CoreDirector OMs are available with both LC and SC connectors, it is possible that a replacement OM will have a connector type that is different from the connectors on both the original OM and the installed site fiber cables. In this situation, fiber pigtail cables and adapters are required to connect the replacement OM. Table 4-5 lists the specific cable and adapter needed for each replacement situation. Table 4-5. Pigtail Cables and Adapter for OM Installation Connector Type Replacement OM Female SC Female LC Pigtail Site Fiber Male LC Male SC Male-to-male SC-to-LC Male-to-male SC-to-LC Female LC/LC Female SC/SC Adapter

The connection sequence is as follows: 1. Connect the matching end of a fiber pigtail to the connector on the OM (Figure 4-12 or Figure 4-13). 2. Route the fiber pigtail to the fiber management panel, IMP, or fiber raceway on the equipment rack. 3. Use an adapter to connect the fiber pigtail to the installed site fiber cable.

Warning:

LASER RADIATION AVOID EXPOSURE TO BEAM CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT


Laser emissions can cause eye damage. Never look directly into fiber connectors. Always assume that laser radiation is present, even when equipment is turned off.

Risk of Damage to Circuit Packs and Backplanes


This equipment contains Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) sensitive devices. Wear grounding straps when handling equipment and follow ESD procedures. All modules must be fully seated and latched into the chassis. If modules need to be removed and cannot be replaced with another module, replace with appropriate blank module. Any module left incompletely seated (or partially removed) may cause the system to become susceptible to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) effects.

Caution:

Traffic Disruption Risk


This procedure affects traffic if performed on an LM that is carrying traffic. Move all traffic off of the LM prior to removal. This procedure could affect traffic if an LM is removed improperly. Ensure that Step 6 is performed to prepare the LM for removal prior to removing the LM. Performance of the following step may cause a traffic disruption. This instruction is intended as a general guide only, has not been tested for all possible applications or configurations, and may not be complete or accurate for some situations. Modules can be hot-swapped; CoreDirector power does not need to be removed. Lock modules prior to removal and unlock modules after installation. If required, refer to the Node Manager User Guide. If a CM switchover occurs during an LM replacement procedure while the LM is in HIR, the CoreDirector Switch does not recognize that the LM was replaced and leaves the LM in HIR. If a CM switchover occurs during LM replacement, reseat the LM.

Preparing a Line Module for Removal STEP 1: Establish a Node Manager session with the CoreDirector Switch. STEP 2: If the LM is not carrying traffic, proceed with Step 6. If the traffic-carrying LM is on the Line side, proceed with Step 3. If the traffic-carrying LM is on the Drop side Working, proceed with Step 4. If the traffic-carrying LM is on the Drop side Protection, proceed with Step 5. STEP 3: If the traffic-carrying LM is on the Line Side: a. Collect all associated OSRP data on the neighboring nodes of the traffic-carrying LM. b. Establish an additional Node Manager session with the neighboring node and access the associated OM. c. Lock the OM PTP on the local node traffic-carrying LM to trigger protection. d. Immediately lock the associated OM PTP in the neighbor node to complete the protection trigger. e. Lock the remaining local-node OM PTPs one at a time and the associated OM PTPs on neighboring nodes. Note: f. After the LM is replaced, unlock all OMs on the local node and neighboring nodes and revert traffic as necessary.

Proceed with Step 6.

STEP 4: If the traffic-carrying LM is on the Drop Side Working, at the drop side equipment, perform a manual protection switch to move traffic off all the OMs connected to the traffic-carrying LM. a. Log on to the local node Node Manager and click Go > Protection. b. In the list frame, click the APS Groups tab. Then select each OM pair and check the protection status to determine if Service is on the working side. No request indicates that Service is on the working side. c. Click Administer. d. Perform a manual switch to move all traffic off the traffic-carrying LM. e. Lock all OMs on the traffic-carrying LM. Note: f. After the LM is replaced, release the manual protection switch at the Drop side equipment.

Proceed with Step 6.

STEP 5: If the traffic-carrying LM is on the Drop Side Protection: a. In Node Manager, click Go > Protection > Line Level > APS/MSP. Select the Traffic Flow tab and verify that the Drop side protection LM is not protecting the working side. b. Lock all OMs on the traffic-carrying LM.

Risk of Equipment Damage


Caution: Improper module removal could result in bent pins. Follow the removal steps carefully.

Risk of Damage to Circuit Packs and Backplanes


This equipment contains Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) sensitive devices. Wear grounding straps when handling equipment and follow ESD procedures. All modules must be fully seated and latched into the chassis. If modules need to be removed and cannot be replaced with another module, replace with appropriate blank module. Any module left incompletely seated (or partially removed) may cause the system to become susceptible to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) effects. Before disconnecting any fiber cables, observe fiber cable routing, connections, and OM placement. Ensure that proper routing, connections, and placement are maintained when the LM and associated OMs are re-installed. All CoreDirector modules are designed such that when inserted, the air gaps between the faceplates are minimal. This provides a continuous low impedance ground path for Electromagnetic Interference and Susceptibility compliance, ESD compliance, and a path to chassis ground for safety. However, the tight tolerance could cause the module face plate to be bound in the slot and difficult to remove. If required, loosen the faceplate screws of the adjacent modules on either side as needed and then remove the module.

Caution:

Note:

STEP 1: Disconnect fiber cables and remove OMs as follows: a. At the front of the CoreDirector Switch, remove the optical fibers from the curved fiber supports above and below the LM that will be removed. b. Refer to TOP 172D Removing and Installing an Optical Module, and remove the OMs. Note: Depending upon local practices, fibers may not need to be removed from the OMs if the same OMs are reinstalled in the replacement LM.

c. Install dust caps on the OM fiber connectors if applicable. d. Place the removed OMs in appropriate ESD-guard antistatic bags.

This provides a continuous low impedance ground path for Electromagnetic Interference and Susceptibility compliance, ESD compliance, and a path to chassis ground for safety. However, there could be insufficient space for the module face plate to fit securely against the chassis. If required, loosen the faceplate screws of the adjacent modules on either side as needed and then install the module.

Caution:

Note:

STEP 1: Identify the line module shelf and slot where the LM will be installed. STEP 2: From the front of the CoreDirector Switch, check the LM slot backplane connector and verify that no bent pins are present. If the CoreDirector Switch is suspected of having damage, stop this procedure and contact Ciena Technical Support for assistance. STEP 3: Remove the replacement module from the ESD-guard antistatic bag by holding the front faceplate and carefully sliding the replacement module from the bag. To support the module, one hand can be placed under the pan (the side without board components). If the module was incorrectly inserted into the ESD bag with the faceplate facing the wrong direction, place one hand under the pan and carefully rotate the circuit pack so the module can be removed from the bag. If the bag is not large enough to rotate the module, place one hand under the pan and carefully remove the module from the bag until the face plate can be grasped. This should be done over a flat surface since there is a possibility of dropping the module. Never pull the module out of the bag by applying pressure to the pan and the component boards. Such handling can cause damage to certain boards that do not have added stiffeners to support such pressure (for example, the VI processor daughter board). To prevent damage to modules, always handle the modules by the faceplate side.

STEP 4: Inspect the module connector block for damage or misalignment. Do this by visually inspecting each of the connector blocks to verify that they are properly seated and flush on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). As a second inspection method, look at the top of all the blocks; they should appear planar and horizontally aligned. Refer to TOP 278D Handling Circuit Packs Properly for additional information. If the connector block is suspected of having damage, place the module back in its ESD bag and return the damaged module as described in Step 8 on page 4-57. Repeat this task with another replacement module. STEP 5: Install the module as follows: a. Insert the module into the guide rails of the designated slot. Slowly slide the module into the slot by pushing on the module faceplate until the top and bottom ejectors engage the ejector bracket and begin to rotate as shown in Figure 4-14. Take care to insert the module using the guide rails in a level, straight-forward motion and visually inspect for proper LM faceplate fit while moving both ejectors into the closed position. If required, loosen the faceplate screws of the adjacent modules on either side as needed and then install the circuit pack. b. Simultaneously apply equal pressure to move both the ejectors into the closed position. Note: If multiple LMs are being installed, do not tighten the faceplate screws until after the last LM is installed and the slot alignment checked.

c. Ensure that the faceplate is flush against the chassis then tighten faceplate screws. STEP 6: Using the Node Manager session, enable module equipment alarm reporting as follows: a. b. c. d. From the menu bar, select Go > Inventory. In the equipment tree, expand the CoreDirector node view and select the desired module. In the details frame, select Alarm Reporting from the ARC State drop-down menu. Click Accept.

STEP 7: The self-test diagnostics and auto-configuration take approximately 5 minutes to complete. After this time has elapsed, verify the following conditions: In Node Manager, the Serial #, Card Type, CLEI, Asmb. Part #, Mfg. Date, Model ID, Ext. Model ID, and ECI fields contain the appropriate information. At the front of the CoreDirector Switch, the module LEDs on the newly installed LM display the following indications: Green ACTIVE LED is illuminated. MAINT LED is off. FAIL LED is off. STEP 8: If the fields are empty or do not contain the appropriate information or if the LM STAT LED or optical port AF (ACT/FAIL) LED continues to illuminate red: a. Test the backplane by installing a second module of the same type (if available) into the same slot. If its LM STAT LED turns off, return the original module to Ciena in accordance with TOP 072D Ciena Return Material Authorization (RMA) Procedure. b. Refer to the Alarm and Trouble Clearing Procedure Manual and/or contact the next level of support.

If required, loosen the faceplate screws of the adjacent modules on either side as needed and then install the module.

Caution:

Note:

STEP 1: Identify the line module shelf and slot into which the LM will be installed. STEP 2: From the front of the CoreDirector Switch, check the LM slot backplane connector and verify that no bent pins are present. If the CoreDirector Switch is suspected of having damage, stop this procedure and contact Ciena Technical Support for assistance. STEP 3: Remove the replacement module from the ESD-guard antistatic bag by holding the front faceplate and carefully sliding the replacement module from the bag. To support the module, one hand can be placed under the pan (the side without board components). If the module was incorrectly inserted into the ESD bag with the faceplate facing the wrong direction, place one hand under the pan and carefully rotate the circuit pack so the module can be removed from the bag. If the bag is not large enough to rotate the module, place one hand under the pan and carefully remove the module from the bag until the face plate can be grasped. This should be done over a flat surface since there is a possibility of dropping the module. Never pull the module out of the bag by applying pressure to the pan and the component boards. Such handling can cause damage to certain boards that do not have added stiffeners to support such pressure (for example, the VI processor daughter board). To prevent damage to modules, always handle the modules by the faceplate side.

STEP 4: Inspect the module connector block for damage or misalignment. Do this by visually inspecting each of the connector blocks to verify that they are properly seated and flush on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). As a second inspection method, look at the top of all the blocks; they should appear planar and horizontally aligned. Refer to TOP 278D Handling Circuit Packs Properly for additional information. If the connector block is suspected of having damage, place the module back in its ESD bag and return the damaged module as described in Step 7 on page 4-59. Repeat this step with another replacement module. STEP 5: Install the module as follows: a. Insert the module into the guide rails of the designated slot. Slowly slide the module into the slot by pushing on the module faceplate until the top and bottom ejectors engage the ejector bracket and begin to rotate as shown in Figure 4-14. Take care to insert the module using the guide rails in a level, straight-forward motion and visually inspect for proper LM faceplate fit while moving both ejectors into the closed position. If required, loosen the faceplate screws of the adjacent modules on either side as needed and then install the circuit pack. b. Simultaneously apply equal pressure to move both ejectors into the closed position. Note: If multiple LMs are being installed, do not tighten the faceplate screws until after the last LM is installed and the slot alignment checked.

c. Ensure that the faceplate is flush against the chassis then tighten faceplate screws. After the module has been inserted into the system backplane, a series of power-up diagnostic self-tests are executed. Following the successful conclusion of the self-tests, an LM-16 module is automatically configured by the CM. This configuration includes defaulting each port for OC-12 support.

Note:

STEP 6: The self-test diagnostics and auto-configuration take approximately five minutes to complete. After this time has elapsed, verify that the Serial #, Card Type, CLEI, Asmb. Part #, Mfg. Date, Model ID, Ext. Model ID, and ECI fields contain the appropriate information. If the fields are empty or do not contain the appropriate information, refer to the Alarm and Trouble Clearing Procedure Manual and/or contact the next level of support. STEP 7: Using the Node Manager session, enable module equipment alarm reporting as follows: a. b. c. d. From the menu bar, select Go > Inventory. In the equipment tree, expand the CoreDirector node view and select the desired module. In the details frame, select Alarm Reporting from the ARC State drop-down menu. Click Accept.

STEP 8: At the front of the CoreDirector Switch, observe the module and port LEDs on the newly installed LM. Verify that the LEDs show the following indications: LM STAT illuminates green. LM MAINT is off. AF (ACT/FAIL) LEDs for ports illuminate green. Other port LEDs may illuminate, depending on the operational status of the port. Refer to Table 4-8 for additional information about the port LEDs. STEP 9: If the fields are empty or do not contain the appropriate information or if the LM STAT LED or optical port AF (ACT/FAIL) continues to illuminate red: a. Test the backplane by installing a second module of the same type (if available) into the same slot. If its LM STAT LED turns off, return the original LM to Ciena in accordance with TOP 072D Ciena Return Material Authorization (RMA) Procedure.

Traffic Disruption Risk
Caution: Performance of the following step may cause a traffic disruption. This instruction is intended as a general guide only, has not been tested for all possible applications or configurations, and may not be complete or accurate for some situations. Connecting to the CoreDirector Switch by modem enables remote Command Line Interface functions only. CoreDirector Node Manager cannot be used through modem connectivity. CoreDirector Node Manager only works over an IP Ethernet connection.

Note:

STEP 1: Start the HyperTerminal program. Then create a new connection choosing a CoreDirector Switch name (example: CD172), an icon, and the COM port to use. Modify the Com port settings as follows:
! ! ! ! !

Bits per second - 19200 Data Bits - 8 Parity - None Stop Bits - 1 Flow Control - None

Test Modems STEP 2: Set the Initial DIP Switch Configuration for the modem labeled Modem to PC using the settings outlined in Table 4-14. Table 4-14.

Task Oriented Practices (TOPS) CoreDirector Switch
Traffic Disruption Risk
It is critical that the modem settings be compatible with the Settings in Table 416. In particular, any setting that is called Echo, Display Local Commands, Disable Echo, or Enable Echo must be set to prevent characters from being sent to the CoreDirector Switch. For a specific modem, the setting could either be ON or OFF. An incorrect configuration of the modem can affect a CoreDirector Switch after a power failure. CoreDirector CLI has a countdown that can stop the boot process if characters are received at the CM console port. If the modem local echo is active, the CM's own echoed-back characters at the countdown act like user input and prevent the normal boot from completing autonomously; more user input at the CLI Configuration Menu would then be required to let the boot process complete. After these settings are entered, the CD modem will not respond to AT commands. It can be used only to connect to the CoreDirector Switch and to be ready to answer to an incoming call from the Modem to PC modem.

Caution:

Note:

STEP 6: Using the DB-9 to DB-25 cable and an analog phone line, connect the modem labeled Modem to CD to one of the following connectors on the I/O panel (See Figure 4-34 & Figure 4-35):
! !

Connector A-CM for connection to CM 1 Connector C-CM for connection to CM 2.

STEP 7: Connect the modem to the modem power source and apply power to the modem. Refer to Table 4-17 for pinout information. Figure 4-34 shows the I/O panel location. Figure 4-35 identifies the rear I/O panel connector designations. If performing this procedure on a CoreDirector CI Switch, the I/O panel is located in Shelf A, and the modem connections are made to A-CM 1 or A-CM 2. Table 4-17.

Task Oriented Practices (TOPS)
Prepare for Software Upgrade Note: Step 1 through Step 26 can be performed anytime prior to the upgrade procedure and are not required to be conducted during the maintenance window.

CoreDirector Switch

Prior to the software upgrade, the user must perform Step 1 through Step 26 to health check the current database. The checklist is provided to ensure that the software upgrade goes smoothly and is successful. The user should take the necessary actions to remove any inconsistencies identified by the checklist. Note: The check list also provides optional activities that can be performed to highlight areas of concern or draw attention to the current network configuration and overall status.

This checklist can be performed outside of the maintenance window at user convenience prior to the upgrade using Node Manager. Upon completion of the checklist, if any database inconsistencies have been detected, the user must remove them prior to performing the software upgrade. This ensures that certain risks are avoided and that the upgrade will succeed. STEP 1: Establish a Node Manager session with the CoreDirector Switch in accordance with TOP 195D Connecting and Logging On to Node Manager via the Ethernet Interface and record results of the following steps in Table 4-20 on page 135. STEP 2: From Inventory, verify the NE equipment configuration status state and Ext. Model ID for circuit packs installed as follows: Circuit packs include Control Modules (CMs), Timing Modules (TMs), and Line Modules (LMs). If circuit pack is present (that is, installed), verify that Ext. Model ID information contains the appropriate module information and is not empty. Note: If the Ext. Model ID information is blank or contains an unsupported value, replace the module prior to the upgrade or a Replaceable Unit Type Mismatch alarm will be raised after the upgrade completes.

If a circuit pack is present (that is, installed), verify that the Hardware Revision complies with the revisions listed in the applicable R4.0 SRD. If a circuit pack is present (that is, installed), verify that Status section information displays: ARC State is Alarm Reporting Administrative State is Unlocked. Operational State is Enabled. Alarm Status is No Alarm. Note: If a circuit pack is installed but has Administrative State of Locked and/or ARC State is No Alarm Reporting, verify that alarms are meant to be suppressed and not reported. In addition, verify that the corresponding TTP is Locked as well.

STEP 3: From Inventory, verify the NE equipment configuration status state for every circuit pack not installed as follows: If circuit pack is not present (that is, not installed), verify that Status section information displays: Administrative State as Locked Operational State as Disabled Alarm Status as No Alarm Maintenance and Upgrade Manual February 11, 2005 - Revision A 009-2004-191

CoreDirector Switch Task Oriented Practices (TOPS)
Verify that the circuit pack Delete button is not bold. If the button is bold, click Delete to properly remove the circuit pack from inventory. If upgrading from R3.0.0 to a later release, administratively unlock LMs and TMs that are HIR and verify that the relevant Replaceable Unit Problem (RUP) alarm posts. If a circuit pack has Prepare to Unseat Card state selected, the module has been placed in HIR and the Availability Status is Failed. The circuit pack requires replacement or must be removed from the NE, removed from any protection group or Test Access Port (TAP) associations, then deleted.

Note:

STEP 4: Verify that Clock Source configuration is set correctly and operating as expected. Ensure that both the clock source and clocking provided are up and clear of any errors (not toggling up and down). Ensure that BITS clock sources are operational as expected and that expected clock quality is detected. Correct any failures (refer to Failure Reasons section under Timing Configure tab or alarms for additional information). Ensure that Line Timing references are up and that no errors are being reported (that is, SD errors). Take the appropriate action necessary to correct any discrepancies. Verify that any E1 External clock source (CAS or CCS) has not configured the Encoding as AMI. This is particularly important when upgrading to R4.0 or later because AMI encoding is not supported in R3.0.0 and later releases. The risk is that both references will not be requalified after the upgrade and will stay in LOF. If both references are AMI-encoded, change at least one reference to HDB3 before upgrading or change the NE timing to line timing.

Note:

STEP 5: Clear all outstanding alarms being reported by the system.

Traffic Disruption Risk


Caution: Software Release 4.0 includes enhanced diagnostics that may detect failures not visible in R2.1 or earlier. Refer to the R4.0 Alarm and Trouble Clearing Procedure Manual if any Replaceable Unit Problem alarms are present after the upgrade.

STEP 6: Verify the Physical Termination Point (PTP) Status state for all optical interface modules or ports to verify operational state and to ensure that the laser is enabled or disabled correctly. Note: Actions to correct the discrepancy are optional and will not affect the software upgrade, but are provided for normal maintenance notification.

PTP is in a working state if Status section information displays: Admin State as Unlocked Operational State as Enabled If the port or module is Unlocked and Disabled, take the necessary actions to correct the problem to return Operational State to Enabled or lock the PTP. Example: Near-End has port state of Locked and Enabled, but Far-End has port state of Unlocked and Disabled. Need to Either change Far-End port Admin State to Locked to clear alarm, which changes Operational State to Enabled, or Unlock port on the Near-End to clear Far-End port alarm.

Task Oriented Practices (TOPS) CoreDirector Switch
PTP is in a nonoperational state if the Status section information displays: Admin State as Locked Operational State as Disabled Note which ports are Drop side ports. Disable LAP-D on these ports if not already disabled. STEP 7: Verify the LM state for all LMs associated in LM 1+1 Configurations to ensure that they are all Unlocked and Not Failed. If an LM is found to be in different state, verify that the appropriate action is taken to return the module to a Unlocked and Operational state by replacing module if required, or take it out of Hold In Reset (Prepare to Unseat Card state) or remove it and delete it as well as all its database associations (its optical ports or modules from APS groups and LM 1+1 Configuration associations) as appropriate. (Refer to FSB 009-2003-322 for additional information.) If the module cannot be deleted, insert a spare module until the software upgrade is completed. The spare module can be removed after completion of software upgrade. Initiating a software upgrade with an incorrect LM configuration (missing module) will impact the success of the upgrade and may result in the rollback to the previous release software and, in the worst case, to both CMs control plane failure.

Note:

STEP 8: Verify the state of each Automatic Protection Switch (APS) Group and ensure that the state of each APS group is as expected. Ensure that both working and protect lines are available (optional). While the state of the associated working and protect lines do not directly affect the software upgrade, it was identified to address the traffic risk associated if a line failure should occur during the upgrade that is carrying traffic and no alternative lines are available for protection or mesh restoration.

Note:

STEP 9: Verify the state of each Virtual Line Switch Ring (VLSR)/Unidirectional Path Switched Ring (UPSR) Group and ensure that the VLSR/UPSR group state is as expected. Ensure that both working and protect lines are available (optional). While the state of the associated working and protect lines do not directly affect the software upgrade, it was identified to address the associated traffic risk if a line failure should occur during the upgrade that is carrying traffic and no alternative lines are available for protection or mesh restoration.

Note:

STEP 10: Record all Subnetwork Connections (SNCs) that have the Admin State of Locked. If possible, record the home and current routes of all working and locked SNCs to verify that they are functioning as expected so that the necessary actions can be corrected or documentation changed as necessary (optional). STEP 11: Verify that the status of all local OSRP links have Hello State of Two-Way Inside with the exception of protect and drop lines. Determine reason for difference and take the necessary corrective actions as required to change Hello State (that is, Admin State may be Locked). TwoWay Inside Hello State is necessary for the NE to advertise available bandwidth for network usage. For example, if port on Far-End is experiencing a failure, an LOS port alarm and Unknown Hello State is normal. STEP 12: Verify that all cross-connects (XCONs) have the Operational State of Enabled. Record all Disabled XCONs (optional).

STEP 17: Periodically ensure that the spare CMs have been synchronized so that they have the most current NE software release and database on them. Spare synchronization can be performed anytime prior to the upgrade or after an upgrade. This is to ensure that a backup spare CM is always available.

Traffic Disruption Risk


Caution: Software reinstall and database restore options are available only to the same software release that the CM is currently running.

a. Remove existing secondary CM in accordance to TOP 170D, Removing and Installing a Control Module, and place in ESD antistatic bag. Insert spare CM and allow spare CM to synchronize with the primary CM. Note: Synchronization time can take from 30 minutes to a few hours depending on the database size or the CoreDirector activity.

b. Verify that new secondary CM has completed synchronization using CLI and look for DB up to date message or wait for the Ps2 secondary publishing availability = 1 to be displayed on a HyperTerminal session to the CM. STEP 18: Ciena highly recommends that a static IP route be temporarily created for the TMs and LMs if available. This will greatly assist Ciena Technical Support to identify and isolate the root cause of any issue that may occur during the software upgrade. The static route can be removed after the software upgrade is successfully completed. STEP 19: Complete the checklist in Table 4-20. Table 4-20.

Do not remove the CM during this procedure. The primary CM undergoing upgrade is programmed to become primary in the event that the process is interrupted. If the CM is removed, reinstalled in another CoreDirector Switch, or reinstalled in the same CoreDirector Switch at a later date, the CM takes control and continues the upgrade. Contact Ciena Technical Support if the CM is removed during the upgrade procedure. The CM boot process can take 30 minutes to several hours depending upon database size and CoreDirector activity. Contact Ciena Technical Support if the secondary CM database does not synchronize with the primary CM.

Caution:

Note:

Observe both CM HyperTerminal sessions and ensure that both HyperTerminal sessions are being logged. If something unexpected happens during the upgrade process, Ciena Technical Support will look at the logged information. Note: Then Node Manager software can be installed on the site PC or laptop during the CM boot process.

As the Primary CM reboots, the Secondary CM will assume the Primary CM functions. If there is a catastrophic failure on the primary CM (the one that has just accepted the new code), the CM that is now the current Primary will remain as the Primary CM and will reformat and reload the current revision of code and database onto the failed or replaced CM. The following alarms will be displayed

Management Alarms: Major Replaceable Unit Problem for CM Alarm bubble in Inventory tab for shelf and CM

As the Primary CM completes its reboot with the new software, the Primary CM resets the Secondary CM, the LMs, and the TMs. If there is a catastrophic failure on both the primary and secondary CMs, the CoreDirector Switch is in free-run, meaning that both CMs are offline and the CoreDirector Switch CMs will lose connectivity to Node Manager or equivalent. Indications of this failure are that the CMs reboot continuously; continuous reboot messages are displayed at the HyperTerminal sessions. If this occurs, the CoreDirector Switch will be operational and traffic will not be affected. In case of this failure, please refer to TOP 211D Software In-Service Reversion. The following alarms will be displayed:

TOP 211D SOFTWARE IN-SERVICE REVERSION


OVERVIEW
The software reversion feature is available on Software Releases 2.1.0 and higher. This Task-Oriented Practice describes how to perform a CoreDirector Switch or CoreDirector CI Switch in-service software reversion from a ON-Center Switching Manager (CSM) Software workstation or on equipment at the CoreDirector Switch. This procedure is only applicable on CoreDirector Switches running software releases 2.1.0 and higher.

Traffic Disruption Risk


Changes to the current database are lost when a different database is installed. Existing connections may be rerouted because of differences between the current database and the database associated with the selected software version. Software reversion must be performed from the primary CM. If a CM switch occurs during the reversion, a warning message is displayed and additional steps must be performed. Refer to Step 14. Use this procedure only to revert to R2.1.0 or later. Contact Ciena technical support to revert to software releases prior to R2.1.0. After reverting to an earlier version of the system software, it is necessary to install a version of Node Manager that is compatible with the reverted software load. The TM firmware image is not automatically reverted during the software reversion. When the TM firmware is different between the software images, the TGS Firmware Mismatch warning is asserted. Refer to the Alarm and Trouble Clearing Procedure Manual for the procedure to clear the TGS Firmware Mismatch.

STEP 20: After the deletion is complete, proceed to Step 21 to install an earlier version of CoreDirector Node Manager software. Install Earlier Version of CoreDirector Node Manager Software STEP 21: If applicable, back up the existing CoreDirector Node Manager env.TXT file. The existing env.TXT file is overwritten during CoreDirector Node Manager software reversion. Copying or renaming the env.TXT file preserves the login screen default node Universal Resource Locators (URLs). After installing the CoreDirector Node Manager software, the default node URLs can be copied from the old env.TXT file to the reverted env.TXT file. STEP 22: Uninstall the currently installed version of CoreDirector Node Manager. STEP 23: Insert the desired version of the CoreDirector Node Manager Compact Disc Read Only Memory (CD-ROM) into the CD-ROM drive and follow the installation Wizard instructions. STEP 24: If applicable, redefine the default node URLs, as follows: a. Open the old env.TXT file and copy the default node URLs from the hosts= line under the ## Property: HOSTS heading. b. Open the new env.TXT file and paste the default node URLs. STEP 25: Launch the corresponding version of Node Manger and log in. Note: The Node Manger code version and the CoreDirector Switch software release code version must match.

TOP 220D TEST LINE MODULES AND OPTICAL MODULES


OVERVIEW
This Task-Oriented Practice describes the optional procedure for testing CoreDirector Switch or CoreDirector CI Switch Line Modules (LMs) and Optical Modules (OMs) or ports using the CoreDirector Node Manager software. It also includes procedures for testing LM-16 integrated OMs. Testing is accomplished by using a combination of diagnostic loops, cross-connects, and fiber jumpers to daisy chain the desired quantity of LMs and OMs together while monitoring a Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) test set to verify a locked, clean signal. This procedure in its entirety should be used only during turn-up and test or on non-traffic carrying systems because this procedure includes optional tests that remove partial power from the CoreDirector Switch. The procedure also removes Control Modules (CMs) and Switch Modules to test all aspects of the LMs and OMs. Do not perform the optional test steps on traffic-carrying systems.

STEP 2: Identify the network test OM-2.5G that will be used to cross-connect to the OM or port to be tested. STEP 3: Establish a Node Manager session to the CoreDirector Switch with the OM or port to be tested and log on as Account Administrator. STEP 4: Ensure that the LM and OM are unlocked in Inventory and that ALS is disabled, and verify that there are no alarms raised against the OM. If required, refer to the Node Manager User Guide for information on administratively unlocking modules and disabling ALS, and refer to the Alarm and Trouble Clearing Procedure Manual for alarm information. STEP 5: Establish a Node Manager session to the CoreDirector Switch that contains the network test OM2.5G. STEP 6: Verify that the network test OM-2.5G and associated LM-8 are unlocked in Inventory, that ALS is disabled, and that there are no alarms raised against the OM. STEP 7: Depending on the network configuration, verify that the OM-2.5G has the necessary attenuation and fiber optic loopback installed or the diagnostic loopback enabled. STEP 8: Connect the test set to the OM or port to be tested. If necessary, insert attenuators on the fiber links connecting the test set to the OM or port. STEP 9: Set up the test set for a Bit Error Rate (BER) test. For the OM-10G, The first OC-48c/STM-16c BER test uses STS channels 1-48, the second test uses channels 49-96, the third uses 97-144, and the fourth uses channels 145-192. STEP 10: Create the appropriate Connection Termination Points (CTPs) and establish the necessary cross connect(s) or a Subnetwork Connection (SNC) between the OM or port to be tested and the network test OM-2.5G using the STS channels indicated in Step 9 for the appropriate BER test. Refer to the Node Manager User Guide for more information on manual cross connects and creating SNCs. STEP 11: Unlock the OM or port to be tested CTP. If the network test OM-2.5G is configured for a diagnostic loopback, do not unlock the OM-2.5G CTP. If the OM-2.5G is configured with a fiber loopback, unlock the OM-2.5G CTP. Note: If a diagnostic loopback was used on the OM-2.5G, do not unlock the OM-2.5G port.

STEP 12: Verify the test set shows a good test signal being returned from the Far-End OM-2.5G. STEP 13: Inject three path errors into the test set and verify the errors are being returned. STEP 14: Restart the test to clear the counters and monitor for 15 minutes to ensure there are no errors between the OMs. STEP 15: After 15 error-free minutes have elapsed, stop the test and delete the cross connects or SNC. STEP 16: If testing the OM-10G, repeat Step 9 through Step 14 for the remaining STS time slots. --STOP-THIS CONCLUDES THE PROCEDURE

CoreDirector Switch Task Oriented Practices (TOPS)

TOP 223D CHANGE COREDIRECTOR SWITCH NAME/IP ADDRESS


OVERVIEW
This Task-Oriented Practice describes how to change the CoreDirector Switch or CoreDirector CI Switch name (TID) or IP address.

Traffic Disruption Risk


The CoreDirector Switch name (TID) and IP Address cannot be changed once a system is deployed and configured unless all traffic is removed, the CM hard disk drives are reformatted, and software is reloaded. The CoreDirector Switch name, as configured during Turn-up and Test, is used during provisioning to identify various VLSR, designated transit lists, and SNC attributes.

CoreDirector Switch Task Oriented Practices (TOPS)

TOP 262D RECOVERY FROM DUAL CM FAILURE


OVERVIEW
This Task-Oriented Practice describes the method to recover from a CoreDirector Switch or CoreDirector CI Switch dual Control Module (CM) failure. In the case of a single CM failure when there is another functioning CM installed in the CoreDirector Switch, the replacement CM synchronizes with the data stored on the functioning CM and this procedure is not required. The CoreDirector Switch is designed to continue to pass traffic in the event that both the primary and secondary CMs fail. If both CMs fail, the CoreDirector Switch is not managed, and data free-runs through the CoreDirector Switch. When both CMs fail, the CoreDirector Switch cannot react to mesh restoration requests or new provisioning requests. The CoreDirector Switch is still able to respond to APS and VLSR switch requests. When a CM is first installed in a CoreDirector Switch, the CM reads and stores location identifying information (called a brand) from the CoreDirector Switch I/O panel. If the CM is removed and reinstalled, the CM boot process matches the stored brand information against the CoreDirector Switch brand information to verify that the CM belongs to the CoreDirector Switch. If the CM belongs to the CoreDirector Switch, the boot process continues.

Traffic Disruption Risk


Notify appropriate personnel before performing this procedure. There is a traffic disruption risk associated with Step 13. Caution: If the replacement CM belongs to the CoreDirector Switch, a 20-second countdown timer is displayed approximately 2 to 5 minutes after the CM is installed. Failure to interrupt the 20-second countdown timer will disrupt traffic if the CM has an out-of-date database or the incorrect software version and an out-of-date database. Read and understand this procedure in its entirety prior to installing a replacement CM. Contact Ciena Technical Support if there are any questions concerning this procedure.

If the CM does not belong (brand mismatch), the boot process halts and manual input is required. There are two possible types of brand mismatch as follows:
!

Product Mismatch - The replacement CM was previously installed in a different type of CoreDirector. In this case, the proper CoreDirector Switch software must be loaded, the CM configuration must be changed, and the database must be restored. The replacement CM being installed in a CoreDirector CI Switch was previously installed in a CoreDirector Switch. The replacement CM being installed in a CoreDirector Switch was previously installed in a CoreDirector CI Switch.

Brand Mismatch - The replacement CM being installed has a brand acquired from a different switch of the same type. In this case, the proper CoreDirector Switch software might need to be loaded (if the CM contains a different version of software), the CM configuration must be changed, and the database must be restored. The replacement CM being installed in a CoreDirector CI Switch was previously installed in a different CoreDirector CI Switch. The replacement CM being installed in a CoreDirector Switch was previously installed in a different CoreDirector Switch.

This TOP also provides steps to restore a database on the CM after a software install. The database restore menu has the same look as the restore portion of the backup and restore menu. This procedure maintains the system configuration established in the last backed up version of the database. Any provisioning performed or any SNCs routed through this system after the most recent backup will be lost. (SNCs will be released, resulting in dropped traffic.) The user should follow the local internal guidelines for identifying new SNCs that are not included in the most recent backup. According to these internal guidelines, the user should obtain any necessary releases and be prepared to rebuild any such SNCs following the completion of this procedure. Alternatively, the user can temporarily reroute any such SNCs around the CoreDirector Switch network prior to executing this procedure.

Remove Failed CMs The CM contains volatile information that can help Ciena Technical personnel identify and isolate problems on the CM. Information based upon the last assert or reset of the module can be retrieved. The following steps use TOP 270D and TOP 271D to attempt to establish communications to the failed CMs, reboot the failed CMs, and remove the CMs within three minutes of issuing the reboot command.

CoreDirector Switch

Note:

The Command Line Interface (CLI) provides the capability to reset CMs from the Operations Menu. Ciena recommends that any reboots of the CM be performed exclusively through the CM CLI interface. Additionally, it is highly recommended that CMs should be pulled from a CoreDirector Switch or CoreDirector CI Switch system only when it has been determined that the card requires replacement. If the CM requires replacement, the CM should be reset prior to removal and should be removed within three minutes following the reboot. STEP 1: At the CoreDirector Switch, loosen the two screws securing the failed CM to the CoreDirector Switch chassis. STEP 2: Refer to TOP 270D Resetting the Primary Control Module (CM Switch) and TOP 271D Resetting the Secondary Control Module (CM) to attempt to communicate with the failed CMs. If communications can be established, reset the CMs from the CLI Operations menu and proceed to Step 3 within 3 minutes of issuing the reset to remove the CMs. If communications cannot be established, proceed to Step 3. STEP 3: Place the top and bottom ejectors in the open position (perpendicular to the module faceplate); then slide the CM out of the slot. STEP 4: If a cable is connected to the Craft RS-232 port on the first failed CM, disconnect the cable. STEP 5: Place the failed module in an ESD-guard antistatic bag. STEP 6: Repeat steps Step 1 through Step 5 for the second failed CM. STEP 7: Perform the required Return Material Authorization (RMA) procedure in accordance with TOP 072D Ciena Return Material Authorization (RMA) Procedure. Install First CM STEP 8: Power up the laptop computer, start the HyperTerminal program, and connect the RS-232 cable to the PC Com port. Refer to TOP 194D Connecting to the CM and Using a Laptop to Configure the CoreDirector Switch on page 1-101 for HyperTerminal settings. STEP 9: Remove the replacement CM from its ESD-guard antistatic bag. STEP 10: Slide the CM halfway into the designated slot. Connect the cable from the laptop computer to the Craft RS-232 port on the CM front panel. STEP 11: Slide the CM fully into the slot and place the top and bottom ejectors in the closed position (parallel to the module faceplate). STEP 12: At the HyperTerminal prompt on the PC, press Enter. The RAM Test messages are immediately displayed. If RAM test messages are not immediately displayed on the PC, immediately unseat the CM from its slot, and go back to Step 8 to verify PC connectivity and HyperTerminal settings. Failure to unseat the CM may cause a total loss of CoreDirector Switch cross-connects. If RAM Test messages are displayed on the PC, proceed to Step 13. STEP 13: After approximately 2 to 5 minutes, one of two possible messages is displayed.

a. A 20-second countdown timer is displayed if the CM was previously installed and branded in the CoreDirector Switch.

Traffic Disruption Risk


Caution: Failure to interrupt the 20-second countdown timer can disrupt traffic. The CM could have the wrong software version or an out-of-data database. Although the CM was previously branded by the CoreDirector Switch, it probably has been unseated for a long time and the database is stale.

If a 20-second countdown timer is displayed, immediately press Enter (before the countdown reaches 0) to interrupt the countdown. The software version must be verified and the database must be restored. Proceed to Step 14. b. A message is displayed notifying the user that the CM has been moved from another CoreDirector Switch. If there is a brand mismatch, the CM was branded by another CoreDirector Switch. A brand mismatch requires configuring the CM and restoring the database. Proceed to Step 14. If there is a product mismatch, contact Ciena Technical Support. A product mismatch requires installing the correct product software, configuring the CM configuration settings, and restoring the database. Verify Software Version STEP 14: From the console output, search for the following text:

TOP 276D LM-8 TO LM-16 UPGRADE


OVERVIEW
This Task-Oriented Practice describes how to perform an in-service Line Module (LM) upgrade from a LM8 to LM-16 in a CoreDirector Switch or CoreDirector CI Switch. In the CoreDirector Switch, LMs are located in slots A-2 through A-16 and slots C-1 through C-15. In the CoreDirector CI Switch, LMs occupy two groups of slots; 1 through 4 (left side of the system shelf) and 5 through 8 (right side of the system shelf). The following procedure moves active traffic in a LM-8 1+1 configuration to the working LM-8, de-provisions and replaces the protect LM-8 with an LM-16, and re-provisions the protection scheme. Note: Use this procedure to remove and install LMs that carry traffic.

REQUIRED TOOLS
The optical interfaces on the LM-16 Line Module require LC-type connectors on a 1.6-mm to 2.0-mm Simplex Single-Mode Fiber (SMF) assembly. The LCtype connectors on the LM-16 module are not physically compatible with SCtype connectors that may be used in the LM-8 and require SC-to-LC adapter cables in cases where site fiber terminated with LC-type connectors are not available. The LM-16 is normally used for add/drop ports. When replacing an existing LM-8 with LM-16, the LM-16 does not support OSRP and therefore cannot be used for mesh protection.

Precautions for Handling and Storing Circuit Packs Industry experience has shown that all devices containing integrated circuits can be damaged by static electricity that builds up on work surfaces and personnel. The effect of Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) damage may be immediate failure or it may manifest itself as a latent failure affecting the reliability of the equipment. Observe the following precautions to avoid static charges and discharges:
!

Assume that all circuit packs contain solid state electronic components that can be damaged by ESD. When handling circuit packs (for example, storing, installing, or removing), always wear a grounded wrist strap or wear a heel strap and stand on a grounded, static-dissipating floor mat. Handle all circuit packs by the faceplate or latch and by the top and bottom outermost edges. Never touch the components, conductors, or connector pins. If possible, do not remove circuit packs from antistatic packaging until they are ready for use. If possible, open all circuit pack packaging at a static-safe work station using properly grounded wrist straps and static-dissipating table mats. Always store and transport circuit packs in static-safe packaging. When removing circuit packs from an enclosure, immediately place them in static-safe packages. Do not leave modules partially installed in the CoreDirector slot. Ensure that the backplane protective covers or caps are removed from the circuit packs before installing them in equipment shelves. Do not stack circuit packs directly on or against each other. Store all circuit packs in the original protective packaging container. Do not stack circuit packs without the use of the original protective packaging containers. Do not leave modules partially installed in the CoreDirector slot.

Removing a Circuit Pack from an Antistatic Bag Note: Be sure to handle the circuit pack only from the front faceplate side. Never handle the circuit pack from the backplane side.

Task Oriented Practices (TOPS)

STEP 1: Wearing an ESD-guard wrist strap, open the ESD-guard antistatic bag STEP 2: Holding the front faceplate, carefully slide the circuit pack from the antistatic bag. For support of the circuit pack, one hand can be placed under the pan (the side without board components). If the circuit pack was incorrectly inserted with the faceplate facing the wrong direction, place one hand under the pan and carefully rotate the circuit pack so the circuit pack can be removed from the bag. If the bag is not large enough to rotate the circuit pack, place one hand under the pan and carefully remove the circuit pack from the bag until the face plate can be grabbed. This should be done over a flat surface since there is a possibility of dropping the circuit pack. Never pull the circuit pack out of the bag by applying pressure to the pan and the component boards (Figure 4-54). Such handling can cause damage to certain boards that do not have added stiffeners to support such pressure (for example, the VI processor daughter board). To prevent damage to circuit packs, always handle the circuit packs by the faceplate side.

Note:

Handling the VI board can result in circuit pack failures Circuit Pack Faceplate

Task Oriented Practices (TOPS)

Inspect the module connector block for damage or misalignment. Do this by visually inspecting each of the connector blocks to verify that they are properly seated and flush on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). As a second inspection method, look at the top of all the blocks; they should appear planar and horizontally aligned. If any of the individual blocks appear to be mis-seated or out-of-alignment, place the module back into the ESD-guard antistatic bag and return in accordance with TOP 072D, Ciena Return Material Authorization (RMA) Procedure. Figure 4-57 and Figure 4-58 show the correct connector block alignment of a line module.

CoreDirector Switch

Check slot backplane connector and verify no bent pins are present. If backplane connector is suspected of having damage, contact Ciena Technical Support for assistance. All CoreDirector modules are designed such that when inserted, the air gaps between the faceplates are minimal. This provides a continuous low impedance ground path for Electromagnetic Interference and Susceptibility compliance, ESD compliance, and a path to chassis ground for safety. There could be insufficient space for the circuit pack face plate to fit securely against the chassis. If required, loosen the faceplate screws of the adjacent modules on either side as needed and then install the circuit pack.

Note:

For CMs, LMs, TMs, and SMs, slowly slide the module into the designated slot by pushing on the module faceplate until the top and bottom ejectors engage the ejector bracket and begin to rotate as shown in Figure 4-59. Take care to insert the module using the guide rails in a level, straightforward motion and visually inspect for proper LM faceplate fit while moving both ejectors into the closed position. If required, loosen the faceplate screws of the adjacent modules on either side as needed and then install the circuit pack. Simultaneously apply equal pressure and move both ejectors to the closed position. Ensure that the faceplate is flush against the chassis then tighten faceplate screws. Note: The CoreDirector Switch meets Insertion Force requirements in GR-78 for maximum force to install and remove circuit packs.

A
Alarm An abnormal condition which exists in a network element that may negatively impact network traffic. An alarm is a condition that has duration in time and remains in effect until it is cleared. (1) Limited Operation. The condition in a fiber optic link when operation is limited by the power of the received signal (rather than by bandwidth or by distortion). (2) The decrease in magnitude of power of a signal in transmission between points. A term used for expressing the total losses on an optical fiber consisting of the ratio of light output to light input. Attenuation is usually measured in decibels per kilometer (db/km) at a specific wavelength. Typical multi-mode wavelengths are 850 and 1300 nanometers (nm); single mode, at 1300 and 1500 nm. NOTE: When specifying attenuation, it is important to note if it is nominal or average room temperature value, or maximum over operating range.

Attenuation

B
Backplane The high-speed communications line to which the CoreDirector Switch modules are physically connected. Status information about the CoreDirector Switch modules is communicated by way of the backplane; no fiber optic signals are carried over the backplane. Distribution point for DC power at central office. A unit equipment rack. (1) Percentage of bits in a transmittal received in error. (2) The number of coding violations detected in a unit of time, usually one second. (3) Specifies expected frequency of errors; compares the ratio of incorrectly transmitted bits to correctly transmitted bits.

Battery Distribution Fuse Bay (BFDB) Bay Bit Error Rate (BER)

C
Cable Rack Central Office (CO) Metallic structure in a ladder configuration, on which cables are run. (1) The place where communications common carriers terminate customer lines and locate switching equipment that interconnects those lines. (2) A location where switching, transmission and power equipment that provide telephone service are centralized. The individual who is responsible for equipment in a centralized equipment location. When an alarm is cleared it may indicate that the problem condition causing the alarm has been addressed and/or resolved by a technician.

Glossary
Term Coaxial Cable Definition A type of cable used for high frequency transmission. It consists of a central conductor surrounded by insulation, which in turn, is surrounded by a circular outer conductor. A type of connection whose route is not flexible; a series of OSRP links from start node to end node must be specified and specific Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) or Synchronous Digital Heirarchy (SDH) lines, when chosen, cannot be changed. It corresponds to a sequence of permanent cross connections set up on the network. If a line fails, there is no mesh protection; the connection waits until the line comes back up. A transport entity that terminates a link connection and support an optical carrier (OC-n). CTPs typically do not process or monitor the characteristic information (with the exception of Synchronous Optical Network [SONET] Path CTPs and intermediate monitoring).

D
Data Communications Equipment (DCE) In a data station, the equipment that provides the signal conversion and coding between the Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and the line. The DCE may be separate equipment or an integral part of the DTE or of intermediate equipment. A DCE may perform other functions usually performed at the network end of the line. The number of bits of information transmitted per second as in a data transmission link. Typically expressed as megabits per second (mb/ s) That part of a data station that serves as a data source (originates data for transmission), a data sink (accepts transmitted data), or both. An electronic tool to measure electric current, resistance or voltage; also called a multimeter. An alternate route that mesh protection uses if the current route fails.

Glossary

F
Fiber Fiber Optic Cable A physical transmission facility containing one or more spans (connecting possibly multiple CoreDirector Switch pairs) A transmission medium that uses glass or plastic fibers, rather than copper wire, to transport data or voice signals. The signal is imposed on the fiber by way of pulses (modulation) of light from a laser or a Light-emitting Diode (LED). Because of its high bandwidth and lack of susceptibility to interference, fiber optic cable is used in long-haul or noisy applications. A single or multiple fiber that is used to connect one unit of equipment to another within an equipment frame. A method for the transmission of information (sound, pictures, or data). Light is modulated and transmitted over high purity, hair-thin fibers of glass. The bandwidth capacity of fiber optic cable is much greater than that of conventional cable or copper wire. Building or underground fiber optic cable.

Fiber Optic Jumper Fiber Optics

G
Jumper Fiber optic cable that has connectors installed on both ends.

H
Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Referring to the OSI reference model, a logical structure for network operations standardized by the International Standards Organization (ISO). The OSI model organizes the communications process into seven different categories and places the categories in a layered sequence based on their relationship to other users. Layers 7 through 4 deal with end to end communications between the message source and the message destination, while layers 3 through 1 deal with network access.

I
Physical Termination Point Physical address which identifies a termination or crossover connection point for switching optical transport signals. Refers to the physical location of an Optical Module within a CoreDirector Switch. Fiber optic cable that has connectors installed on one end.
