Before You Begin
Complete the
Step 1
already logged in, continue with Step 2.
Click the Provisioning > General tabs.
Step 2
Enter the following information in the fields listed:
Step 3
Node Name/TID—Type a name for the node. For TL1 compliance, names must begin with an alpha
•
character and have no more than 20 alphanumeric characters.
Contact—Type the name of the node contact person and the contact phone number up to
•
255 characters (optional).
Latitude—Enter the node latitude: N (North) or S (South), degrees, and minutes (optional).
•
Longitude—Enter the node longitude: E (East) or W (West), degrees, and minutes (optional).
•
Tip
Note
Description—Type a description of the node. The description can have a maximum of
•
255 characters.
Use NTP/SNTP Server—When checked, CTC uses a Network Time Protocol (NTP) or Simple
•
Network Time Protocol (SNTP) server to set the date and time of the node.
If you do not use an SNTP or NTP server, complete the Date and Time fields. The ONS 15310-MA
SDH will use these fields for alarm dates and times. By default, CTC displays all alarms in the CTC
computer time zone for consistency. To change the display to the node time zone, complete the
"DLP-H75 Display Alarms and Conditions Using Time Zone" task on page
Note
If you check the Use NTP/SNTP Server check box, complete the following fields:

You can also position nodes manually on the network view map. Press Ctrl while you drag and
drop the node icon to the desired location. To create a network map that is visible to all
ONS 15310-MA SDH users, complete the
on page 4-22. This procedure requires a Superuser security level.
The latitude and longitude values only indicate the geographical position of the nodes in the
actual network and not the CTC node position.
Using an NTP or SNTP server ensures that all ONS 15310-MA SDH network nodes use the
same date and time reference. The server synchronizes the node's time after power outages
or software upgrades.
Use NTP/SNTP Server—Type the IP address of the primary NTP/SNTP server connected to the
ONS 15310-MA SDH or of another ONS 15454/15600/15310-MA SDH as GNE with
NTP/SNTP enabled that is connected to the ONS 15310-MA SDH ENE.
Backup NTP/SNTP Server—Type the IP address of the secondary NTP/SNTP server connected
to the ONS 15310-MA SDH or of another ONS 15454/15600/15310-MA SDH as GNE with
NTP/SNTP enabled that is connected to the ONS 15310-MA SDH ENE.
When the primary NTP/SNTP server fails or is not reachable, the node uses the secondary
NTP/SNTP server to synchronize its date and time. If both the primary and secondary
NTP/SNTP servers fail or are not reachable, an SNTP-FAIL alarm is raised. The node checks
for the availability of the primary or secondary NTP/SNTP server at regular intervals until it can
get the time from any one of the NTP/SNTP servers. After the node gets the time from any one
for the node you will turn up. If you are
