Removing fiber-related hardware
Complete these steps for each PN that you are converting to IP-connect:
1. Remove the fiber cables that connect the EI circuit packs in the PNs.
2. Remove the TN570 expansion interface (EI) circuit packs from the port network carriers or
gateways.
3. At the SAT, enter change circuit-pack.
a. Enter blanks in the TN570 EI fields that correspond to the PNs that you converted to
IP-connect.
b. Press Submit.
Administering PN synchronization, if necessary
Perform this procedure if the PN that you just converted to IP-connect requires a
synchronization source. To administer synchronization:
1. After the conversion, enter the SAT commands list synchronization and status
synchronization to show the synchronization information for the IP-PNC PNs. The
Primary and the Secondary fields on the Synchronization Plan screen and the Source
Physical Location field on the Synchronization Status screen must be empty.
2. Enter change synchronization port-network n, where n is the PN number of the
converted port network that requires synchronization.
