Alarm Troubleshooting
Note
The terms "Unidirectional Path Switched Ring" and "UPSR" may appear in Cisco literature. These terms do not refer to using Cisco ONS 15xxx products in a unidirectional path switched ring configuration. Rather, these terms, as well as "Path Protected Mesh Network" and "PPMN," refer generally to Cisco's path protection feature, which may be used in any topological network configuration. Cisco does not recommend using its path protection feature in any particular topological network configuration.
This chapter gives a description, severity, and troubleshooting procedure for each commonly encountered Cisco ONS 15454 alarm and condition. Tables 2-1 through 2-5 provide lists of ONS 15454 alarms organized by severity. Table 2-6 provides a list of alarms organized alphabetically. Table 2-8 gives definitions of all ONS 15454 alarm logical objects, which are the basis of the alarm profile list in Table 2-8.
An alarm's troubleshooting procedure applies to both the Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) and TL1 version of that alarm. If the troubleshooting procedure does not clear the alarm, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (Cisco TAC) to report a service-affecting problem (1 800 553-2447).
More information about alarm profile information modification and downloads are located in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations Guide.
Note
Release 4.7 is DWDM only. It supports all DWDM, transponder (TXP), and muxponder (MXP) cards but not optical, electrical, fibre storage, or Ethernet cards.
2.1 Alarm Index by Default Severity
The following tables group alarms and conditions by their default severities in the ONS 15454 system. These severities are the same whether they are reported in the CTC Alarms window severity (SEV) column or in TL1.
Note
The CTC default alarm profile contains some alarms or conditions that are not currently implemented but are reserved for future use.
2.1.1 Critical Alarms (CR)
Table 2-1 alphabetically lists ONS 15454 Critical alarms.
2.1.2 Major Alarms (MJ)
Table 2-2 alphabetically lists ONS 15454 Major alarms.
2.1.3 Minor Alarms (MN)
Table 2-3 alphabetically lists ONS 15454 Minor alarms.
2.1.4 NA Conditions
Table 2-4 alphabetically lists ONS 15454 Not Alarmed conditions.

2.3 Alarm Logical Objects
The CTC alarm profile list organizes all alarms and conditions according to the logical objects they are raised against. These logical objects represent physical objects such as cards, logical objects such as circuits, or transport and signal monitoring entities such as the SONET or ITU-T G.709 optical overhead bits. One alarm might appear in multiple entries when it can be raised against multiple objects. For example, the loss of signal (LOS) alarm can be raised against the optical signal (OC-N) or the optical transport layer overhead (OTN) as well as other objects. Therefore, both OCN::LOS and OTN::LOS appear in the list (as well as the other objects).
Alarm profile list objects are defined in Table 2-7.
Note
Alarm logical object names can appear as abbreviated versions of standard terms used in the system and the documentation. For example, the "OCN" logical object refers to the OC-N signal. Logical object names or industry-standard terms are used within the entries as appropriate.

2.5 DS3-12 E Line Alarms
Unlike the standard DS-3 card, which uses the unframed format exclusively, the DS3-12E card provides three choices: unframed, M13, or C Bit. The choice of framing format determines the line alarms that the DS3-12E card reports. The following table lists the line alarms reported under each format.
The choice of framing format does not affect the reporting of STS alarms. Regardless of format, the DS3-12E card reports the same STS alarms and conditions, listed in Table 2-9, as the standard DS-3 card reports.
2.6 Trouble Notifications
The ONS 15454 system reports trouble by utilizing standard alarm and condition characteristics, standard severities following the rules in Telcordia GR-253, and graphical user interface (GUI) state indicators.These notifications are described in the following paragraphs.
The ONS 15454 uses standard Telcordia categories to characterize levels of trouble. The system reports trouble notifications as alarms and status or descriptive notifications (if configured to do so) as conditions in the CTC Alarms window. Alarms typically signify a problem that the user needs to remedy, such as a loss of signal (LOS). Conditions do not necessarily require troubleshooting.
2.6.1 Alarm Characteristics
The ONS 15454 uses standard alarm entities to identify what is causing trouble. All alarms stem from hardware, software, environment, or operator-originated problems whether or not they affect service. Current alarms for the network, CTC session, node, or card are listed in the Alarms tab. (In addition, cleared alarms are also found in the History tab.)
2.6.2 Condition Characteristics
Conditions include any problem detected on an ONS 15454 shelf. They can include standing or transient notifications. A snapshot of all current raised, standing conditions on the network, node, or card can be retrieved in the CTC Conditions window or using TL1's set of RTRV-COND commands. (In addition, some but not all cleared conditions are also found in the History tab.)
2.6.3 Severities
The ONS 15454 uses Telcordia-devised standard severities for alarms and conditions: Critical (CR), Major (MJ), Minor (MN), Not Alarmed (NA) and Not Reported (NR):
•
A Critical alarm generally indicates severe, service-affecting trouble that needs immediate correction. Loss of traffic on an STS-1, which can hold 28 DS-1 circuits, would be a Critical (CR), Service-Affecting (SA) alarm.
•
A Major (MJ) alarm is a serious alarm, but the trouble has less impact on the network. For example, loss of traffic on more than five DS-1 circuits is Critical, but loss of traffic on one to five DS-1 circuits is Major (MJ).
•
Minor (MN) alarms generally are those that do not affect service.
•
Not Alarmed (NA) conditions are information indicators, such as for state (FRNGSYNC) or an event (FRCSWTOPRI). They might or might not require troubleshooting, as indicated in the entries.
•
Not Reported (NR) conditions occur as a secondary result of another event. For example, the alarm indication signal (AIS), with severity NR, is inserted by a downstream node when an LOS (CR or MJ) alarm occurs upstream. These conditions do not in themselves require troubleshooting, but are to be expected in the presence of primary alarms.
All alarm, condition, and not-reported event severities listed in this manual are default profile settings. However in situations when traffic is not lost—such as when the alarm occurs on protected ports or circuits—alarms having Critical (CR) or Major (MJ) default severities can be demoted to lower severities such as Minor (MN) or Non-Service Affecting (NSA) as defined in Telcordia GR-474.
Severities can also be customized for an entire network or for single nodes, down to the port level by changing or downloading customized alarm profiles. These custom severities are subject to the standard severity-demoting rules given in Telcordia GR-474.
2.6.4 Service Effect
Service-Affecting (SA) alarms—those that interrupt service—might be Critical (CR), Major (MJ), or Minor (MN) severity alarms. In some cases the severity of an alarm might not correspond to its service effect. For example, the AUTOSW-LOP alarm for the VTMON object is minor but service-affecting because it indicates a traffic switch has occurred directing traffic away from a loss of circuit path. Non-Service Affecting (NSA) alarms always have a Minor (MN) default severity.
2.6.5 States
The Alarms or History tab state (ST) columns indicate the disposition of the alarm or condition as follows:
•
A raised (R) event is one that is active.
•
A cleared (C) event is one that is no longer active.
•
A transient (T) event is one that is automatically raised and cleared in CTC during system changes such as user login, logout, loss of connection to node view, etc. Transient events do not require user action.
Note
Transient events are not defined in this documentation release.
2.7 Safety Summary
This section covers safety considerations designed to ensure safe operation of the ONS 15454. Personnel should not perform any procedures in this chapter unless they understand all safety precautions, practices, and warnings for the system equipment. Some troubleshooting procedures require installation or removal of cards; in these instances users should pay close attention to the following caution.
Caution 
Hazardous voltage or energy could be present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution when removing or installing cards.
Some troubleshooting procedures require installation or removal of OC-192 cards; in these instances users should pay close attention to the following warnings.
Warning
On the OC-192 card, the laser is on when the card is booted and the safety key is in the on position (labeled 1). The port does not have to be in service (IS-NR) for the laser to be on. The laser is off when the safety key is off (labeled 0).
Warning
Invisible laser radiation could be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable or connector. Do not stare into the beam directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with certain optical instruments (for example, eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a distance of 100 mm could pose an eye hazard. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified could result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Warning
Class 1 laser product.
Warning
Class 1M laser radiation when open. Do not view directly with optical instruments.
2.8 Alarm Procedures
This section list alarms alphabetically and includes some conditions commonly encountered when troubleshooting alarms. The severity, description, and troubleshooting procedure accompany each alarm and condition.
Note
When you check the status of alarms for cards, ensure that the alarm filter icon in the lower right corner is not indented. If it is, click it to turn it off. When you are done checking for alarms, you can click the alarm filter icon again to turn filtering back on. For more information about alarm filtering, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations Guide.
Note
When checking alarms, ensure that alarm suppression is not enabled on the card or port. For more information about alarm suppression, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations Guide.
2.8.1 AIS
•
Default Severity: Not Reported (NR), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Objects: BITS, DS1, DS3, FUDC, MSUDC, TRUNK
The Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) condition indicates that this node is detecting AIS in the incoming signal SONET overhead.
Generally, any AIS is a special SONET signal that tells the receiving node that the sending node has no valid signal available to send. AIS is not considered an error. The AIS condition is raised by the receiving node on each input when it sees the AIS instead of a real signal. In most cases when this condition is raised, an upstream node is raising an alarm to indicate a signal failure; all nodes downstream from it only raise some type of AIS. This condition clears when you resolved the problem on the upstream node.
Note
ONS 15454 DS-3 and EC-1 terminal (inward) loopbacks do not transmit an AIS in the direction away from the loopback. Instead of AIS, a continuance of the signal transmitted into the loopback is provided.
Clear the AIS Condition
Step 1
Determine whether there are alarms on the upstream nodes and equipment, especially the "LOS (OCN)" alarm on page 2-142, or out-of-service (OOS,MT or OOS,DSBLD) ports.
Step 2
Clear the upstream alarms using the applicable procedures in this chapter.
Step 3
If the condition does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.2 AIS-L
•
Default Severity: Not Reported (NR), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Objects: EC1-12, OCN
The AIS Line condition indicates that this node is detecting line-level AIS in the incoming signal. This alarm is secondary to another alarm occurring simultaneously in an upstream node.
Generally, any AIS is a special SONET signal that tells the receiving node that the sending node has no valid signal available to send. AIS is not considered an error. The AIS condition is raised by the receiving node on each input when it sees the signal AIS instead of a real signal. In most cases when this condition is raised, an upstream node is raising an alarm to indicate a signal failure; all nodes downstream from it only raise some type of AIS. This condition clears when you resolved the problem on the upstream node.
Clear the AIS-L Condition
Step 1
Complete the "Clear the AIS Condition" procedure.
Step 2
If the condition does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.3 AIS-P
•
Default Severity: Not Reported (NR), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Objects: STSMON, STSTRM
AIS Path condition means that this node is detecting AIS in the incoming path. This alarm is secondary to another alarm occurring simultaneously in an upstream node.
Generally, any AIS is a special SONET signal that tells the receiving node that the sending node has no valid signal available to send. AIS is not considered an error. The AIS condition is raised by the receiving node on each input when it sees the signal AIS instead of a real signal. In most cases when this condition is raised, an upstream node is raising an alarm to indicate a signal failure; all nodes downstream from it only raise some type of AIS. This condition clears when you resolved the problem on the upstream node.
Clear the AIS-P Condition
Step 1
Complete the "Clear the AIS Condition" procedure.
Step 2
If the condition does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.4 AIS-V
•
Default Severity: Not Reported (NR), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Objects: VT-MON, VT-TERM
The AIS Virtual Tributary (VT) condition means that this node is detecting AIS in the incoming VT-level path.
Generally, any AIS is a special SONET signal that tells the receiving node that the sending node has no valid signal available to send. AIS is not considered an error. The AIS condition is raised by the receiving node on each input when it sees the signal AIS instead of a real signal. In most cases when this condition is raised, an upstream node is raising an alarm to indicate a signal failure; all nodes downstream from it only raise some type of AIS. This condition clears when you resolved the problem on the upstream node.
See the "1.8.2 AIS-V on DS3XM-6 Unused VT Circuits" section on page 1-59 for more information.
Clear the AIS-V Condition
Step 1
Complete the "Clear the AIS Condition" procedure.
Step 2
If the condition does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.5 ALS
•
Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Objects: 2R, AOTS, ESCON, FC, GE, ISC, OCN, TRUNK
The Automatic Laser Shutdown (ALS) condition occurs when an Optical Preamplifier (OPT-PRE) or Optical Booster (OPT-BST) amplifier card is switched on. The turn-on process lasts approximately nine seconds, and the condition clears after approximately 10 seconds.
Note
ALS is an informational condition and does not require troubleshooting.
2.8.6 AMPLI-INIT
The AMPLI-INIT condition is not used in this platform in this release. It is reserved for future development.
2.8.7 APC-CORRECTION-SKIPPED
•
Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Objects: AOTS, OMS, OTS
The Automatic Power Control (APC) Correction Skipped condition occurs when the actual power level of a DWDM channel exceeds the threshold setting by 3 dB or more. The APC compares actual power levels with power level thresholds every 10 minutes or after any channel allocation is performed. If the actual power level is above or below the setting within 3 dB, APC corrects the level. If the actual power level exceeds the threshold by +3 dB or -3 dB, APC cannot correct the level and the APC-CORRECTION-SKIPPED condition is raised.
There is no operator action to resolve this condition. It stays raised until the power level problem is resolved and APC takes a normal reading.
Note
APC-CORRECTION-SKIPPED is an informational condition and does not require troubleshooting.
2.8.8 APC-DISABLED
•
Default Severity: Major (MJ), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: NE
The APC Disabled alarm occurs when the information related to the number of DWDM channels is not reliable. The alarm can occur when the any related alarms also occur: the "AMPLI-INIT" condition on page 2-24, the "EQPT" alarm on page 2-72, the "IMPROPRMVL" alarm on page 2-115, or the "MEA (EQPT)" alarm on page 2-166. If the alarm occurs with the creation of the first circuit, delete and recreate it.
Clear the APC-DISABLED Alarm
Step 1
Complete the appropriate procedure to clear the main alarm:
•
Clear the EQPT Alarm
•
Clear the IMPROPRMVL Alarm
•
Clear the MEA (EQPT) Alarm
Step 2
If the alarm does not clear, complete the "Delete a Circuit" procedure and then recreate it using procedures in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations Guide.
Step 3
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.9 APC-END
•
Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: NE
The APC Terminated on Manual Request condition is raised when the APC application terminates after being manually launched from CTC or TL1. It is an informational condition.
Note
APC-END is an informational condition and does not require troubleshooting.
2.8.10 APC-OUT-OF-RANGE
•
Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Objects: AOTS, OMS, OTS
The APC Out of Range condition is raised on amplifier cards (OPT-PRE and OPT-BST); optical service channel cards (OSCM and OSC-CSM); multiplexer cards (32MUX-O); demultiplexer cards (32DMX, 32DMX-O), and optical add/drop multiplexer cards (AD-1C-xx.x, AD-2C-xx.x, AD-4C-xx.x, AD-1B-xx.x, and AD-4B-xx.x) when the requested gain or attenuation setpoint cannot be set because it exceeds the port parameter range.
Clear the APC-OUT-OF-RANGE Condition
Step 1
Provision the correct setpoint. For instructions, refer to the "Turn Up a Node" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations Guide. The condition clears when the APC setting is corrected, and APC does not detect any errors in its next cycle.
Step 2
If the condition does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.11 APSB
•
Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: OCN
The Automatic Protection Switching (APS) Channel Byte Failure alarm occurs when line terminating equipment detects protection switching byte failure or an invalid code in the incoming APS signal. Some older non-Cisco SONET nodes send invalid APS codes if they are configured in a 1+1 protection scheme with newer SONET nodes, such as the ONS 15454. These invalid codes causes an APSB on an ONS 15454.
Step 1
Use an optical test set to examine the incoming SONET overhead to confirm inconsistent or invalid K bytes. For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer. If corrupted K bytes are confirmed and the upstream equipment is functioning properly, the upstream equipment might not interoperate effectively with the ONS 15454.
Step 2
If the alarm does not clear and the overhead shows inconsistent or invalid K bytes, you might need to replace the upstream cards for protection switching to operate properly. Complete the "Physically Replace a Traffic Card" procedure.
Caution 
For the ONS 15454, removing a card that currently carries traffic on one or more ports can cause a traffic hit. To avoid this, perform an external switch if a switch has not already occurred. See the
"Protection Switching, Lock Initiation, and Clearing" section for commonly used alarm troubleshooting procedures.
Note
When you replace a card with an identical type of card, you do not need to make any changes to the database.
Step 3
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.12 APSCDFLTK
•
Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: OCN
The APS Default K Byte Received alarm occurs during bidirectional line switched ring (BLSR) provisioning or when a BLSR is not properly configured, for example, when a four-node BLSR has one node configured as a path protection. When this misconfiguration occurs, a node in a path protection or 1+1 configuration does not send the two valid K1/K2 APS bytes anticipated by a system configured for BLSR. One of the bytes sent is considered invalid by the BLSR configuration. The K1/K2 byte is monitored by receiving equipment for link-recovery information.
Troubleshooting for APSCDFLTK is often similar to troubleshooting for the "BLSROSYNC" alarm on page 2-43.
Clear the APSCDFLTK Alarm
Step 1
Complete the "Identify a BLSR Ring Name or Node ID Number" procedure to verify that each node has a unique node ID number.
Step 2
Repeat Step 1 for all nodes in the ring.
Step 3
If two nodes have the same node ID number, complete the "Change a BLSR Node ID Number" procedure to change one node ID number so that each node ID is unique.
Step 4
If the alarm does not clear, verify correct configuration of east port and west port optical fibers. (See the "E-W-MISMATCH" alarm on page 2-77.) West port fibers must connect to east port fibers, and vice versa. The Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations Guide provides a procedure for fibering BLSRs.
Step 5
If the alarm does not clear and the network is a four-fiber BLSR, ensure that each protect fiber is connected to another protect fiber and each working fiber is connected to another working fiber. The software does not report any alarm if a working fiber is incorrectly attached to a protection fiber.
Step 6
If the alarm does not clear, complete the "Verify Node Visibility for Other Nodes" procedure.
Step 7
If nodes are not visible, complete the "Verify or Create Node SDCC Terminations" procedure to ensure that SONET data communications channel (SDCC) terminations exist on each node.
Step 8
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.13 APSC-IMP
•
Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: OCN
An Improper SONET APS Code alarm indicates bad or invalid K bytes. The APSC-IMP alarm occurs on OC-N cards in a BLSR configuration and can occur during BLSR configuration. The receiving equipment monitors K bytes or K1 and K2 APS bytes for an indication to switch from the working card to the protect card or vice versa. K1/K2 bytes also contain bits that tell the receiving equipment whether the K byte is valid. The alarm clears when the node receives valid K bytes.
Caution 
Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right edge of the shelf assembly.
Note
This alarm can occur on a virtual tributary (VT) tunnel when it does not have VT circuits provisioned. It can also occur when the exercise command or a lockout is applied to a span. An externally switched span does not raise this alarm because traffic is preempted.
Warning
Invisible laser radiation could be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable or connector. Do not stare into the beam directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with certain optical instruments (for example, eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a distance of 100 mm could pose an eye hazard. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified could result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Clear the APSC-IMP Alarm
Step 1
Use an optical test set to determine the validity of the K byte signal by examining the received signal. For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer.
If the K byte is invalid, the problem is with upstream equipment and not in the reporting ONS 15454. Troubleshoot the upstream equipment using the procedures in this chapter, as applicable. If the upstream nodes are not ONS 15454s, consult the appropriate user documentation.
Step 2
If the K byte is valid, verify that each node has a ring name that matches the other node ring names. Complete the "Identify a BLSR Ring Name or Node ID Number" procedure.
Step 3
Repeat Step 2 for all nodes in the ring.
Step 4
If a node has a ring name that does not match the other nodes, make the ring name of that node identical to the other nodes. Complete the "Change a BLSR Ring Name" procedure.
Step 5
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.14 APSCINCON
•
Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: OCN
An APS Inconsistent alarm means that an inconsistent APS byte is present. The SONET overhead contains K1/K2 APS bytes that notify receiving equipment, such as the ONS system, to switch the SONET signal from a working to a protect path. An inconsistent APS code occurs when three consecutive frames do not contain identical APS bytes. Inconsistent APS bytes give the receiving equipment conflicting commands about switching.
Clear the APSCINCON Alarm
Step 1
Look for other alarms, especially the "LOS (OCN)" alarm on page 2-142, the "LOF (OCN)" alarm on page 2-132, or the "AIS" alarm on page 2-22. Clearing these alarms clears the APSCINCON alarm.
Step 2
If an APSINCON alarm occurs with no other alarms, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.15 APSCM
•
Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)
•
Logical Object: OCN
The APS Channel Mismatch alarm occurs when the ONS 15454 expects a working channel but receives a protection channel. In many cases, the working and protection channels are crossed and the protect channel is active. If the fibers are crossed and the working line is active, the alarm does not occur. The APSCM alarm occurs only on the ONS 15454 when bidirectional protection is used on OC-N cards in a 1+1 configuration.
Warning
On the ONS 15454 OC-192 card, the laser is on when the card is booted and the safety key is in the on position (labeled 1). The port does not have to be in service (IS-NR) for the laser to be on. The laser is off when the safety key is off (labeled 0).
Warning
Invisible laser radiation could be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable or connector. Do not stare into the beam directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with certain optical instruments (for example, eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a distance of 100 mm could pose an eye hazard. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified could result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Caution 
Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right edge of the shelf assembly.
Clear the APSCM Alarm
Step 1
Verify that the working-card channel fibers are physically connected directly to the adjoining node working-card channel fibers.
Step 2
If the fibers are correctly connected, verify that the protection-card channel fibers are physically connected directly to the adjoining node protection-card channel fibers.
Step 3
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447) in order to report a service-affecting problem.
2.8.16 APSCNMIS
•
Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)
•
Logical Object: OCN
The APS Node ID Mismatch alarm occurs when the source node ID contained in the SONET K2 byte of the incoming APS channel is not present in the ring map. The APSCNMIS alarm could occur and clear when a BLSR is being provisioned. If so, you can disregard the temporary occurrence. If the APSCNMIS remains, the alarm clears when a K byte with a valid source node ID is received.
Clear the APSCNMIS Alarm
Step 1
Complete the "Identify a BLSR Ring Name or Node ID Number" procedure to verify that each node has a unique node ID number.
Step 2
If the Node ID column contains any two nodes with the same node ID listed, record the repeated node ID.
Step 3
Click Close in the Ring Map dialog box.
Step 4
If two nodes have the same node ID number, complete the "Change a BLSR Node ID Number" procedure to change one node ID number so that each node ID is unique.
Note
If the node names shown in the network view do not correlate with the node IDs, log into each node and click the Provisioning > BLSR tabs. The BLSR window shows the node ID of the login node.
Note
Applying and removing a lockout on a span causes the ONS node to generate a new K byte. The APSCNMIS alarm clears when the node receives a K byte containing the correct node ID.
Step 5
If the alarm does not clear, use the "Initiate a Lock Out on a BLSR Protect Span" procedure to lockout the span.
Step 6
Complete the "Clear a BLSR External Switching Command" procedure to clear the lockout.
Step 7
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447) in order to report a service-affecting problem.
2.8.17 APSIMP
•
Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: OCN
The APS Invalid Code condition occurs if a 1+1 protection group is not properly configured at both nodes to send or receive the correct APS byte. A node that is either configured for no protection or is configured for path protection or BLSR protection does not send the right K2 APS byte anticipated by a system configured for 1+1 protection. The 1+1 protect port monitors the incoming K2 APS byte and raises this alarm if it does not receive the proper type of byte.
The condition is superseded by an APS, APSCM, or APSMM. It is not superseded by AIS or remote defect indication (RDI) line alarms. It clears when the port receives a valid code for 10 ms.
Clear the APSIMP Condition
Step 1
Check the configuration of the other node in the 1+1 protection group. If the far end is not configured for 1+1 protection, create the group. For instructions, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations Guide.
Step 2
If the other end of the group is properly configured or the alarm does not clear after you have provisioned the group correctly, verify that the working ports and protect ports are cabled correctly.
Step 3
Ensure that both protect ports are configured for SONET.
Step 4
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447).
2.8.18 APS-INV-PRIM
•
Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: OCN
The Optimized 1+1 APS Primary Facility condition occurs on OC-N cards in an optimized 1+1 protection system if the incoming primary section header does not indicate whether it is primary or secondary.
Note
APS-INV-PRIM is an informational condition and does not require troubleshooting. If the APS switch is related to other alarms, troubleshoot these alarms as necessary using the procedures in this chapter.
2.8.19 APS-PRIM-FAC
•
Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: OCN
The Optimized 1+1 APS Invalid Primary Section condition occurs on OC-N cards in an optimized 1+1 protection system if there is an APS status switch between the primary and secondary facilities to identify which port is primary.
Note
APS-INV-PRIM is an informational condition and does not require troubleshooting. If the APS switch is related to other alarms, troubleshoot these alarms as necessary using the procedures in this chapter.

2.8.20 APSMM
•
Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: OCN
An APS Mode Mismatch failure alarm occurs on OC-N cards when there is a mismatch of the protection switching schemes at the two ends of the span, such as being bidirectional and unidirectional at each end. Each end of a span must be provisioned the same way: bidirectional and bidirectional, or unidirectional and unidirectional. APSMM can also occur if a non-Cisco vendor's equipment is provisioned as 1:N and the ONS 15454 is provisioned as 1+1.
If one end is provisioned for 1+1 protection switching and the other is provisioned for path protection switching, an APSMM alarm occurs in the ONS 15454 that is provisioned for 1+1 protection switching.
Clear the APSMM Alarm
Step 1
For the reporting ONS 15454, display node view and verify the protection scheme provisioning:
a.
Click the Provisioning > Protection tabs.
b.
Click the 1+1 protection group configured for the OC-N cards.

Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)
•
Logical Objects: E1000F, E100T
A Carrier Loss alarm on the LAN E-Series Ethernet card is the data equivalent of the "LOS (OCN)" alarm on page 2-142. The Ethernet card has lost its link and is not receiving a valid signal. The most common causes of the CARLOSS alarm are a disconnected cable, an Ethernet Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) fiber connected to an optical card rather than an Ethernet device, or an improperly installed Ethernet card. Ethernet card ports must be enabled for CARLOSS to occur. CARLOSS is declared after no signal is received for approximately 2.5 seconds.
The CARLOSS alarm also occurs after a node database is restored. After restoration, the alarm clears in approximately 30 seconds after the node reestablishes Spanning Tree Protocol (STP).
Caution 
Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right edge of the shelf assembly.
Clear the CARLOSS (E100T, E1000F) Alarm
Step 1
Verify that the fiber cable is properly connected and attached to the correct port.
Step 2
If the fiber cable is properly connected and attached to the port, verify that the cable connects the card to another Ethernet device and is not misconnected to an OC-N card.
Step 3
If no misconnection to an OC-N card exists, verify that the transmitting device is operational. If not, troubleshoot the device.
Step 4
If the alarm does not clear, use an Ethernet test set to determine whether a valid signal is coming into the Ethernet port.
For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer.
Step 5
If a valid Ethernet signal is not present and the transmitting device is operational, replace the fiber cable connecting the transmitting device to the Ethernet port.
Step 6
If a valid Ethernet signal is present, complete the "Remove and Reinsert (Reseat) Any Card" procedure for the Ethernet card.
Step 7
If the alarm does not clear, complete the "Physically Replace a Traffic Card" procedure for the Ethernet card.
Note
When you replace a card with an identical type of card, you do not need to make any changes to the database.
Step 8
If a CARLOSS alarm repeatedly appears and clears, use the following steps to examine the layout of your network to determine whether the Ethernet circuit is part of an Ethernet manual cross-connect.
If the reporting Ethernet circuit is part of an Ethernet manual cross-connect, then the reappearing alarm could be a result of mismatched STS circuit sizes in the setup of the manual cross-connect. Perform the following steps unless the Ethernet circuit is part of a manual cross-connect:
a.
Right-click anywhere in the row of the CARLOSS alarm.
b.
Click Select Affected Circuits in the shortcut menu that appears.
c.
Record the information in the type and size columns of the highlighted circuit.
d.
From the examination of the layout of your network, determine which ONS 15454 and card host the Ethernet circuit at the other end of the Ethernet manual cross-connect.
•
Log into the ONS 15454 at the other end of the Ethernet manual cross-connect.
•
Double-click the Ethernet card that is part of the Ethernet manual cross-connect.
•
Click the Circuits tab.
•
Record the information in the type and size columns of the circuit that is part of the Ethernet manual cross-connect. The Ethernet manual cross-connect circuit connects the Ethernet card to an OC-N card at the same node.
e.
Use the information you recorded to determine whether the two Ethernet circuits on each side of the Ethernet manual cross-connect have the same circuit size.
If one of the circuit sizes is incorrect, complete the "Delete a Circuit" procedure and reconfigure the circuit with the correct circuit size. For more information, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide.
Step 9
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447) in order to report a service-affecting problem.
2.8.47 CARLOSS (EQPT)
•
Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)
•
Logical Object: EQPT
A Carrier Loss on the LAN Equipment alarm generally occurs on OC-N cards when the ONS 15454 and the workstation hosting CTC do not have a TCP/IP connection. The problem involves the LAN or data circuit used by the RJ-45 (LAN) connector on the TCC2, or for the ONS 15454, the LAN backplane pin connection. The CARLOSS alarm does not involve an Ethernet circuit connected to an Ethernet port. The problem is in the connection and not CTC or the node.
Warning
Invisible laser radiation could be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable or connector. Do not stare into the beam directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with certain optical instruments (for example, eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a distance of 100 mm could pose an eye hazard. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified could result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Caution 
Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right edge of the shelf assembly.
Clear the CARLOSS (EQPT) Alarm
Step 1
If the reporting card is an MXP or TXP card in an ONS 15454 node, verify the data rate configured on the pluggable port module (PPM):
a.
Double-click the reporting MXP or TXP card.
b.
Click the Provisioning > Pluggable Port Modules tabs.
c.
View the Pluggable Port Modules area port listing in the Actual Equipment column and compare this with the contents of the Selected PPM area Rate column.
d.
If the rate does not match the actual equipment, you must delete and recreate the selected PPM. Select the PPM, click Delete, then click Create and choose the correct rate for the port rate.
Step 2
If the reporting card is an OC-N card, verify connectivity by pinging the ONS 15454 that is reporting the alarm:
a.
If you are using a Microsoft Windows operating system, from the Start Menu choose Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
b.
If you are using a Sun Solaris operating system, from the Common Desktop Environment (CDE) click the Personal Application tab and click Terminal.
c.
For both the Sun and Microsoft operating systems, at the prompt type:
ping ONS-15454-IP-address
For example:
If the workstation has connectivity to the ONS 15454, it shows a "reply from IP-Address" after the ping. If the workstation does not have connectivity, a "Request timed out" message appears.
Step 3
If the ping is successful, an active TCP/IP connection exists. Restart CTC:
a.
Exit from CTC.
b.
Reopen the browser.
c.
Log into CTC.
Step 4
Using optical test equipment, verify that proper receive levels are achieved.
Step 5
Verify that the optical LAN cable is properly connected and attached to the correct port.
Step 6
If the fiber cable is properly connected and attached to the port, verify that the cable connects the card to another Ethernet device and is not misconnected to an OC-N card.
Step 7
If you are unable to establish connectivity, replace the fiber cable with a new known-good cable.
Step 8
If you are unable to establish connectivity, perform standard network or LAN diagnostics. For example, trace the IP route, verify cable continuity, and troubleshoot any routers between the node and CTC.
Step 9
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447) in order to report a service-affecting problem.
2.8.48 CARLOSS (FC)
The Carrier Loss alarm for Fibre Channel is not used in this release. It is reserved for future development.
2.8.49 CARLOSS (G1000)
•
Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)
•
Logical Object: G1000
A Carrier Loss alarm on the LAN G-Series Ethernet card is the data equivalent of the "LOS (OCN)" alarm on page 2-142. The Ethernet card has lost its link and is not receiving a valid signal.
CARLOSS on the G1000-4 card is caused by one of two situations:
•
The G1000-4 port reporting the alarm is not receiving a valid signal from the attached Ethernet device. The CARLOSS can be caused by an improperly connected Ethernet cable or a problem with the signal between the Ethernet device and the G1000-4 port.
•
If a problem exists in the end-to-end path (including possibly the far-end G1000-4 card), it causes the reporting card to turn off the Gigabit Ethernet transmitter. Turning off the transmitter typically causes the attached device to turn off its link laser, which results in a CARLOSS on the reporting G1000-4 card. The root cause is the problem in the end-to-end path. When the root cause is cleared, the far-end G1000-4 port turns the transmitter laser back on and clears the CARLOSS on the reporting card. If a turned-off transmitter causes the CARLOSS alarm, other alarms such as the "TPTFAIL (G1000)" alarm on page 2-225 or OC-N alarms or conditions on the end-to-end path normally accompany the CARLOSS (G1000s) alarm.
Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Reference Manual for a description of the G1000-4 card's end-to-end Ethernet link integrity capability. Also see the "TRMT" alarm on page 2-227 for more information about alarms that occur when a point-to-point circuit exists between two cards.
Ethernet card ports must be enabled for CARLOSS to occur. CARLOSS is declared after no signal is received for approximately 2.5 seconds.
Caution 
Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right edge of the shelf assembly.
Clear the CARLOSS (G1000) Alarm
Step 1
Verify that the fiber cable is properly connected and attached to the correct port.
Step 2
If the fiber cable is correctly connected and attached, verify that the cable connects the card to another Ethernet device and is not misconnected to an OC-N card.
Step 3
If no misconnection to the OC-N card exists, verify that the attached transmitting Ethernet device is operational. If not, troubleshoot the device.
Step 4
Verify that optical receive levels are within the normal range. The correct specifications are listed in the "1.9.3 OC-N Card Transmit and Receive Levels" section on page 1-71.
Step 5
If the alarm does not clear, use an Ethernet test set to determine that a valid signal is coming into the Ethernet port. For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer.
Step 6
If a valid Ethernet signal is not present and the transmitting device is operational, replace the fiber cable connecting the transmitting device to the Ethernet port.
Step 7
If the alarm does not clear and link autonegotiation is enabled on the G1000-4 port, but the autonegotiation process fails, the card turns off its transmitter laser and reports a CARLOSS alarm. If link autonegotiation has been enabled for the port, determine whether there are conditions that could cause autonegotiation to fail:
a.
Confirm that the attached Ethernet device has autonegotiation enabled and is configured for compatibility with the asymmetric flow control on the card.
b.
Confirm that the attached Ethernet device configuration allows reception of flow control frames.
Step 8
If the alarm does not clear, disable and reenable the Ethernet port to attempt to remove the CARLOSS condition. (The autonegotiation process restarts.)
Step 9
If the alarm does not clear and the "TPTFAIL (G1000)" alarm on page 2-225 is also reported, complete the "Clear the TPTFAIL (G1000) Alarm" procedure. If the TPTFAIL alarm is not reported, continue to the next step.
Note
When the CARLOSS and the TPTFAIL alarms are reported, the reason for the condition could be the G1000-4 card's end-to-end link integrity feature taking action on a remote failure indicated by the TPTFAIL alarm.
Step 10
If the TPTFAIL alarm was not reported, determine whether a terminal (inward) loopback has been provisioned on the port:
a.
In node view, click the card to go to card view.
b.
Click the Maintenance > Loopback tabs.
c.
If the service state is listed as OOS-MA, LPBK&MT, a loopback is provisioned. Go to Step 11.
Step 11
If a loopback was provisioned, complete the "Clear Other DS-N Card, EC-1, or G1000 Card Loopbacks" procedure.
On the G1000-4, provisioning a terminal (inward) loopback causes the transmit laser to turn off. If an attached Ethernet device detects the loopback as a loss of carrier, the attached Ethernet device shuts off the transmit laser to the G1000-4 card. Terminating the transmit laser could raise the CARLOSS alarm because the loopbacked G1000-4 port detects the termination.
If the does not have a loopback condition, continue to Step 13.
Step 12
If a CARLOSS alarm repeatedly appears and clears, the reappearing alarm could be a result of mismatched STS circuit sizes in the setup of the manual cross-connect. Perform the following steps if the Ethernet circuit is part of a manual cross-connect:
Note
An ONS 15454 Ethernet manual cross-connect is used when another vendors' equipment sits between ONS nodes, and the Open System Interconnection/Target Identifier Address Resolution Protocol (OSI/TARP)-based equipment does not allow tunneling of the ONS 15454 TCP/IP-based DCC. To circumvent a lack of continuous DCC, the Ethernet circuit is manually cross connected to an STS channel riding through the non-ONS network.
a.
Right-click anywhere in the row of the CARLOSS alarm.
b.
Right-click or left-click Select Affected Circuits in the shortcut menu that appears.
c.
Record the information in the type and size columns of the highlighted circuit.
d.
Examine the layout of your network and determine which ONS 15454 and card host the Ethernet circuit at the other end of the Ethernet manual cross-connect.
•
Log into the node at the other end of the Ethernet manual cross-connect.
•
Double-click the Ethernet card that is part of the Ethernet manual cross-connect.
•
Click the Circuits tab.
•
Record the information in the type and size columns of the circuit that is part of the Ethernet manual cross-connect. The cross-connect circuit connects the Ethernet card to an OC-N card at the same node.
e.
Determine whether the two Ethernet circuits on each side of the Ethernet manual cross-connect have the same circuit size from the circuit size information you recorded.
f.
If one of the circuit sizes is incorrect, complete the "Delete a Circuit" procedure and reconfigure the circuit with the correct circuit size. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide for detailed procedures to create circuits.
Step 13
If a valid Ethernet signal is present, complete the "Remove and Reinsert (Reseat) Any Card" procedure.
Step 14
If the alarm does not clear, complete the "Physically Replace a Traffic Card" procedure for the Ethernet card.
Note
When you replace a card with an identical type of card, you do not need to make any changes to the database.
Step 15
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447) in order to report a service-affecting problem.

2.8.55 CKTDOWN
•
Default Severity: Critical (CR), Service-Affecting (SA)
•
Logical Object: UCP-CKT
The unified control plane (UCP) Circuit Down alarm applies to logical circuits created within the UCP between devices. It occurs when there is signaling failure across a UCP interface. The failure can be caused by a number of things, such as failure to route the call within the core network. In that case, the alarm cannot be resolved from the ONS 15454 because it is an edge device.
Clear the CKTDOWN Alarm
Step 1
Ensure that the channel to neighbor has been provisioned with the correct IP address:
a.
In node view, click the Provisioning > UCP > Neighbor tabs.
b.
View the entries to find out whether the node you are trying to contact is listed.
The node name is listed under the Name column and the IP address is listed under the Node ID column. If the Node ID says 0.0.0.0 and the Enable Discovery check box is selected, the node could not automatically identify the IP address. Ping the node to ensure that it is physically and logically accessible.
c.
Click Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt to open an MS-DOS command window for pinging the neighbor.
d.
At the command prompt (C:\>), type:
ping {node-DNS-name | node-IP-address}
If you typed the domain name services (DNS) name and the ping was successful, you will see:
pinging node-dns-name.domain-name.com. node-IP-address with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from IP-address: bytes=32 time=10ms TTL=60
Reply from IP-address: bytes=32 time=10ms TTL=60
Reply from IP-address: bytes=32 time=10ms TTL=60
Reply from IP-address: bytes=32 time=10ms TTL=60
Ping statistics for IP-address:
Packets sent = 4 Received = 4 Lost = 0 (0% lost),
Approximate round trip time in milli-seconds:
Minimum = minimum-ms, Maximum = maximum-ms, Average = average-ms
If you typed the IP address and the ping command is successful, the result will look similar but will not include the DNS name in the first line.
e.
If your DNS name or IP address ping was successful, IP access to the node is confirmed, but your neighbor configuration is wrong. Delete the neighbor by selecting it in the window and clicking Delete.
f.
If the ping was unsuccessful, you will receive the following reply for each try:
A negative reply indicates that the neighbor node is not physically or logically accessible. Resolve the access problem, which is probably a cabling issue.
Step 2
If the neighbor has not been provisioned, or if you had to delete the neighbor, create one:
a.
In the Provisioning > UCP > Neighbor tabs, click the Create button.
b.
In the Neighbor Discovery window, enter the node DNS node name in the Neighbor Name field. Leave the Enable Discovery check box checked (default setting) if you want the neighbor to be discovered through the network.
c.
Click OK.
The node is listed in the Neighbor column list. If the neighbor discovery worked, the neighbor IP address is listed in the Node ID column. If it is not successful, the column lists 0.0.0.0.
Step 3
If neighbor discovery is enabled, ensure that the neighbor node ID and remote IP control channel (IPCC) have been discovered correctly.
Step 4
Click the Provisioning > UCP > IPCC tabs and view the IPCC listing. If the IPCC has been created correctly, the Remote IP column contains the neighbor IP address.
Step 5
If the neighbor IP address is not correctly discovered, the field contains 0.0.0.0.
a.
Click the entry to select the neighbor IP address and click Delete.
b.
If you get an error that will not allow you to delete the IPCC, you must delete the neighbor and recreate it. Click the Neighbor tab.
c.
Click to select the neighbor and click Delete.
d.
Go back to Step 2 to recreate the neighbor.
Step 6
If remote IPCC has not been discovered, or if it had to be deleted, create the connection:
a.
In the Provisioning > UCP > IPCC tabs, click Create.
b.
In the Unified Control Plane Provisioning window, click Next.
c.
If no IPCCs are listed, click Create.
d.
In the Create New IPCC window, click the DCC termination corresponding to the core network interface.
Leave the SDCC radio button selected (as long as DCCs have been created on the node) and leave the Leave Unchanged radio button selected.
e.
Click OK. The IPCC is listed in the Unified Control Plane Provisioning window.
f.
Click the neighbor to select it, and click Next.
g.
Choose the UCP interface [for example, Slot 5 (OC-48), port 1] where the core network is connected from the drop-down list. The field default is the node where you are logged in.
h.
Choose the UCP interface TNA address type. The default is IPv4. The address field lists the login node IP address by default.
i.
Click Finish. If creation is successful, the Remote ID column in the IPCC tab will contain the neighbor IP address.
Step 7
Ensure that the local and remote interface IDs have been provisioned correctly:
a.
Click the Interface tab. View the slot and port listed in the Interface column [for example, Slot 5 (OC48), port 1].
b.
Compare the listed interface listed with the IPCC tab SDCC column entry.
Step 8
If the Interface column is not the same as the SDCC column entry, click the entry in the Interface window to select it and click Delete.
Step 9
Click Next.
Step 10
In the Existing CCIDs list, click the IPCC containing the DCC connection. Click Next.
The correct interface for the selected CCID is shown in the UPC Interface field, and the correct IP address information for the login node is shown by default in the other fields. Click Finish.
Step 11
If you completed all of these steps and verified the information, the alarm could be the result of a misconfiguration in the core network. Contact the core site administrators.
Step 12
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447) in order to report a service-affecting problem.

If the alarm persists, the problem is with the physical path of communication from the TCC2 card to the reporting card. The physical path of communication includes the TCC2, the other card, and the backplane.
Caution 
Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right edge of the shelf assembly.
Clear the CONTBUS-IO-A Alarm
Step 1
Ensure that the reporting card is physically present in the shelf. Record the card type. Click the Inventory tab to reveal the provisioned type.
If the actual card type and the provisioned card type do not match, see the "MEA (EQPT)" alarm on page 2-166 for the reporting card.
Step 2
If the alarm object is any single card slot other than the standby Slot 11 TCC2, perform a CTC reset of the object card. Complete the "Reset a Traffic Card in CTC" procedure. For the LED behavior, see the "Typical Traffic Card LED Activity During Reset" section.
Step 3
If the alarm object is the standby Slot 11 TCC2, complete the "Reset a Traffic Card in CTC" procedure for it. The procedure is similar.
Wait ten minutes to verify that the card you reset completely reboots and becomes the standby card. (A reset standby card will remain standby.)
If CONTBUS-IO-A is raised on several cards at the same time, complete the "Reset an Active TCC2 and Activate the Standby Card" procedure.
Wait ten minutes to verify that the card you reset completely reboots and becomes the standby card.
Step 4
Verify that the reset is complete and error-free and that no new related alarms appear in CTC. A green ACT/SBY LED indicates an active card. An amber ACT/SBY LED indicates a standby card.
Step 5
If the CTC reset does not clear the alarm, complete the "Remove and Reinsert (Reseat) Any Card" procedure for the reporting card.
Step 6
If the reset card has not rebooted successfully, or the alarm has not cleared, call TAC (1 800 553-2447). If the TAC technician tells you to reseat the card, complete the "Remove and Reinsert (Reseat) the Standby TCC2 Card" procedure. If the TAC technician tells you to remove the card and reinstall a new one, follow the "Physically Replace a Traffic Card" procedure.

Wait ten minutes to verify that the card you reset completely reboots and becomes the standby card.
Step 5
Verify that the reset is complete and error-free and that no new related alarms appear in CTC. A green ACT/SBY LED indicates an active card. An amber ACT/SBY LED indicates a standby card.
Step 6
If the CTC reset does not clear the alarm, complete the "Remove and Reinsert (Reseat) Any Card" procedure for the reporting card.
Step 7
If the reset card has not rebooted successfully, or the alarm has not cleared, call TAC (1 800 553-2447). If the TAC technician tells you to reseat the card, complete the "Remove and Reinsert (Reseat) the Standby TCC2 Card" procedure. If the TAC technician tells you to remove the card and reinstall a new one, follow the "Physically Replace a Traffic Card" procedure.
2.8.63 CTNEQPT-MISMATCH
•
Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service Affecting (NSA)
•
Logical Object: EQPT
The Connection Equipment Mismatch (CTNEQPT-MISMATCH) condition is raised when there is a mismatch between the cross-connect card preprovisioned in the slot and the card actually present in the shelf. For example, an XC card may be preprovisioned in Slot 10, but an XCVT may be physically installed.
The alarm is raised against a card that is mismatched with the card. For example, CTNEQPT-MISMATCH is raised in the following situations:
•
An XC card is replaced with an XCVT or XC10G card.
•
An XCVT card is replaced with an XC10G card.
Note
Cisco does not support configurations of unmatched cross-connect cards in Slot 8 and Slot 10, although this situation may briefly occur during the upgrade process. (For example, you might have an XC in Slot 8 and an XC10G in Slot 10 while you are upgrading Slot 10.)
Note
The cross-connect card you are replacing should not be the active card. (It can be in SBY state or otherwise not in use.)
If you upgrade a node to R4.6 and replace an XC with XCVT or XC10G, or an XCVT with an XC10G, the CTNEQPT-MISMATCH condition is raised but it will be cleared when the upgrade process ends.
Note
During an upgrade, this condition occurs and is raised as its default severity, Not Alarmed (NA). However, after the upgrade has occurred, if you wish to change the condition's severity so that it is Not Reported (NR), you can do this by modifying the alarm profile used at the node. For more information about modifying alarm severities, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations Guide.
Clear the CTNEQPT-MISMATCH Condition
Step 1
Verify what card is preprovisioned in the slot:
a.
In node view, click the Inventory tab.
b.
View the slot's row contents in the Eqpt Type and Actual Eqpt Type columns.
The Eqpt Type column contains the equipment that is provisioned in the slot. The Actual Eqpt Type contains the equipment that is physically present in the slot. For example, Slot 8 might be provisioned for an XCVT card, which is shown in the Eqpt Type column, but an XC10G card could be physically present in the slot. The XC10G would be shown in the Actual Eqpt Type column.)
Step 2
Complete the "Physically Replace a Traffic Card" procedure for the mismatched card.
Step 3
If the condition does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447).
