Turning Up a Node
This chapter explains how to provision a single Cisco ONS 15454 node and turn it up for service, including
assigning the node name, date, and time; provisioning timing references; provisioning network attributes such
as IP address and default router; setting up users and user security; installing cards; and creating DWDM
connections.
Note
The procedures and tasks described in this chapter for the Cisco ONS 15454 platform is applicable to the
Cisco ONS 15454 M2 and Cisco ONS 15454 M6 platforms, unless noted otherwise.
Note
Procedures in this chapter require that you have a network plan calculated for your DWDM network with
Cisco Transport Planner. Cisco Transport Planner is a DWDM planning tool that is available from your Cisco
account representative. Cisco Transport Planner prepares a shelf plan for each network node and calculates
the power and attenuation levels for the DWDM cards installed in the node. For information about Cisco
Transport Planner, contact your Cisco account representative. For instructions on using Cisco Transport
Planner, refer to the Cisco Transport Planner DWDM Operations Guide.
Note
Unless otherwise specified, in this document "ONS 15454" refers to both ANSI (ONS 15454) and ETSI
(ONS 15454 SDH) shelf assemblies.

Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) views referenced in these procedures depend on the mode. In single-shelf
mode, the views are network, node, and card. In multishelf mode, the views are network, multishelf, shelf,
and card. For more information about CTC views, refer to
