Action
Log in to the OPC and open the Host Provisioning Manager tool (located
under the Prov Admin toolset).
The main window of the Host Provisioning Manager tool appears. The cursor
is in the RFT field.
Display the Chooser menu by pressing Ctrl_L / (or Keypad 3).
The Chooser menu appears showing the RFTs that are in the OPC's span of
control.
CAUTION
Risk of communication loss between the Subscriber
Carrier Module-100 Access (SMA) and RFT
Ensure that each host name (common language locator
identifier or CLLI) in the displayed list is unique. Duplicate
host names indicate datafill errors at the host switch in
tables OFCENG and RDTINV. If duplicate host names
exist, ensure that the NETWORK_ELEMENT_ID
parameter in table OFCENG is unique for each host switch
and different from fiber central office terminal (FCOT)
(if applicable) and RFT numbers
Use the arrow keys to move to the RFT for which you want to provision a host;
press Space (or Keypad 0) to select the RFT.
The list of hosts shows the hosts that have been provisioned on the selected
RFT.
Note: The Add button is disabled after you add five hosts.
Tab to the Add button and select it.
The Add interface group information dialog appears.
For the host you are adding, enter the host name CLLI (up to a 16-character
alphanumeric string). Then, tab to the IDT number field and enter the IDT
number for the new host name.
Note: The Host Provisioning Manager does not verify the accuracy of the
host name or the IDT.
If you make an incorrect entry while provisioning a GR-303 DMS interface,
you cannot establish an association between the intended DMS host and the
AccessNode, even though the physical connections are in place.
If you make an incorrect entry while provisioning a GR-303 MVI interface, you
can establish an association between the intended MVI host and the
AccessNode if the physical connections are in place.
