Before You Begin
Verify the card installation on the new node. See the
Step 2
page 3-2.
Note
Verify that the STM-M ports (or cards in non-310 nodes) that will serve as the path protection trunk
Step 3
(span) ports match the path protection optical rate of the trunk cards to which the new node will be
connected. For example, if the adjacent nodes have STM4 ports, the new node must have STM4 ports.
Verify that fiber is available to connect the new node to the existing nodes.

it is added, you must be an authorized user on the node and you must have IP connectivity to the node.
Complete the
Step 7
that the path protection configuration is free of major alarms or problems. If trouble is indicated (for
example, a major alarm exists), resolve the problem before proceeding. See
Alarms"
Count the total number of circuits on the fiber that is cut between the existing nodes. To count the number
Step 8
of circuits, right click on the fiber that is cut, and click circuits.
Step 9 In network view, click the Circuits tab.
To view Partial circuits, click the Filter button and select PARTIAL from the Status drop-down list. The
Partial circuits, if any, are displayed.
To view Partial_TL1 circuits, click the Filter button and select PARTIAL_TL1 from the Status
drop-down list. The Partial_TL1 circuits, if any, are displayed.
Resolve any partial circuits (both Partial and Partial_TL1) in the network before proceeding. However,
if you want to continue with
before and after adding a path protection node. This ensures that no additional partial circuits are created
after this procedure is completed.
Log into the new node:
Step 10
If the node has a LAN connection and does not appear on the network map, from the File menu,
•
choose Add Node, then enter the IP address or the DNS name of the new node and click OK. Wait
for the new node to initialize and appear on the network map. Proceed to the next bullet point.
If the node has a LAN connection and appears on the network map, from the View menu, choose Go
•
to Other Node, then choose the new node from the Select Node to Go to drop-down list on the Select
Node dialog box and click OK.
• If the new node is not connected to the network, log into it directly using the

Step 11 Click the Alarms tab and click Synchronize.
a. Verify that the alarm filter is not on. See the

SF, and SD. If trouble is indicated (for example, a major alarm exists), resolve the problem before
proceeding. See
SDH Troubleshooting Guide.
