NTP-B169 Set Up CTC Network Access
Complete the following information in the fields listed:
Step 3
IP Address—Type the IP address assigned to the ONS 15327 node.
•
Suppress CTC IP Display—Check this check box if you want to prevent the node IP address from
•
being displayed in CTC to users with Provisioning, Maintenance, or Retrieve security levels. (The
IP address suppression will not be applied to users with Superuser security level.)
Default Router—If the ONS 15327 must communicate with a device on a network that the ONS
•
15327 is not connected to, the ONS 15327 can forward the packets to the default router. Type the IP
address of the router in this field. If the ONS 15327 is not connected to a LAN, or if you will enable
any of the gateway settings to implement the ONS 15327 proxy server features, leave this field
blank.
• Forward DHCP Request To—Check this check box to enable Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP). Also, enter the DHCP server IP address in the Request To field. The check box is
unchecked by default. If you will enable any of the gateway settings to implement the ONS 15327
proxy server features, leave this field blank.

address.
Net/Subnet Mask Length—Type the subnet mask length (decimal number representing the subnet
•
mask length in bits) or click the arrows to adjust the subnet mask length. The subnet mask length is
the same for all ONS 15327s in the same subnet.
XTC CORBA (IIOP) Listener Port—Check this check box to enable the ONS 15327 IIOP listener
•
port. This listener port enables communication with the ONS 15327 through firewalls. See the
"NTP-B27 Set Up the ONS 15327 for Firewall Access" procedure on page 3-13
information.
• Gateway Settings—Provides three check boxes that enable the ONS 15327 proxy server features.
Do not check any of the check boxes until you review the proxy server scenario in the Cisco ONS
15327 Reference Manual. In proxy server networks, the ONS 15327 will be either a gateway
network element (GNE) or end network element (ENE). Provisioning must be consistent for each
NE type.

If you enable DHCP, computers connected to an ONS 15327 node can obtain temporary IP
addresses from an external DHCP server. The ONS 15327 only forwards DHCP requests; it
does not act as a DHCP server.
Craft Access Only— If checked, the login ONS 15327 is only visible to the CTC workstation
that it is directly connected to; other non-DCC connected nodes will not be aware of the node
provisioned for craft access only. This box is normally checked for ENEs and not checked for
GNEs. If Craft Access Only is checked, Enable Proxy must be selected in order for the directly
connected PC to have visibility to DCC-connected nodes.
Enable Proxy—If checked, the ONS 15327 responds to CTC requests with a list of
DCC-connected nodes for which the node serves as a proxy. GNEs and ENEs within a proxy
server network should have this check box selected.
Enable Firewall—If checked, the node prevents IP traffic from being routed between the DCC
and the LAN port. GNEs and ENEs within a proxy server network should have this box
checked. If Enable Firewall is checked, Enable Proxy must be selected in order for the directly
connected PC to have visibility to DCC-connected nodes.
