C H A P T E R Manage the Node This chapter explains how to modify node provisioning for the Cisco ONS 15454 and perform common management tasks such as monitoring the dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) automatic power control (APC) and span loss values. To provision a new node, see Chapter 3, “Turn Up a Node.”...
Purpose This procedure verifies the span loss between two DWDM nodes using Cisco Transport Controller (CTC). Perform this procedure after a node or network modification has occurred and you want to verify that the span loss between the nodes has not changed.
The minimum and maximum expected span loss values are calculated by Note Cisco MetroPlanner and imported to the node when you perform the “NTP-G138 Import a Cisco MetroPlanner Configuration File” task on page 3-82.
DLP-G159 Refresh Automatic Power Control Information Purpose This task refreshes the DWDM APC information. Tools/Equipment A node provisioning plan prepared by Cisco MetroPlanner is required.

• 18.1 Network Applications Cisco ONS 15454s can be provisioned for metro access and metro core DWDM network applications. Metro access networks are 60 km or less in size. Channels are not equalized and dispersion compensation is not applied. Metro access networks have few spans and very low span loss, so the signal link budget is the limiting factor for performance.
Chapter 18 Network Reference 18.2 Network Topologies 18.2 Network Topologies The ONS 15454 DWDM network topologies include hubbed, multihubbed, and meshed rings, and linear and single-span networks. 18.2.1 Hubbed Rings In the hubbed ring topology (Figure 18-1), a hub node terminates all the DWDM channels. A channel can be provisioned to support protected traffic between the hub node and any node in the ring.
