To set up a provisionable patchcord between an optical port and an ONS node transponder/muxponder,
Note
an add/drop multiplexer, or multiplexer/demultiplexer port, the optical port must have an
RS-DCC/MS-DCC termination provisioned. If the port is the protection port in a 1+1 group, the working
port must have an RS-DCC/MS-DCC termination provisioned. As needed, complete the
Provision Section DCC Terminations" task on page
An optical port requires two patchcords when the remote end is Y-cable protected or is an add/drop

multiplexer or multiplexer/demultiplexer port.
In node view, click the Provisioning > Comm Channels > PPCs tabs. If you are in network view, click

This task creates a provisionable patchcord, also called a virtual link.
Patchcords are used for network communication when a DCC/GCC is not
available. They appear as dashed lines in CTC network view.
For the specific situations in which a patchcord is necessary, refer to the
Cisco ONS 15310-MA SDH Reference Manual.
For for information about patchcords, refer to the Cisco ONS 15310-MA

If you are in node view, the Origination Node defaults to the current node. If you are in network
view, click the desired origination node from the drop-down list.
Type a patchcord identifier (0 through 32767) in the TX/RX ID field.
Click the desired origination slot/port from the list of available slots/ports.
Click the desired termination node from the drop-down list. If the remote node has not previously
been discovered by CTC but is accessible by CTC, type the name of the remote node.
Type a patchcord identifier (0 through 32767) in the TX/RX ID field. The origination and
termination IDs must be different if the patchcord is set up between two cards on the same node.
Click the desired termination slot/port from the list of available slots/ports. The origination port and
the termination port must be different.
In the Origination Node area, type a patchcord identifier (0 through 32767) in the RX ID field. The
origination Tx and Rx and termination Tx and Rx IDs must be different.
