Note Loss of Pointer Path (LOP-P) alarms can occur on a split signal if the ports are not in a Y-cable protection
group.
Step 1 View the Cisco MetroPlanner Traffic Matrix (see
or MXP cards that need Y-cable protection groups. (Cards requiring Y-cable protection are indicated
with "Y-Cable" in the Traffic Matrix table Protection Type column. Refer to the Cisco MetroPlanner
DWDM Operations Guide for more information.)
Step 2 Verify that the TXP or MXP cards are installed according to the requirements specified in
table describes the protection types available in the ONS 15454 for DWDM client cards.

This procedure creates a Y-cable protection group between the client ports
of two transponder (TXP_MR_10G, TXP_MR_10E, or TXP_MR_2.5G)
or two muxponder (MXP_2.5G_10G, MXP_2.5G_10E, MXP_MR_2.5G,
MXPP_MR_2.5G) cards. For additional information about Y-cable
protection, see the

must be on a different card than the working port and it must be
TXP_MR_10G
the same card type as the working port. The working and protect
port numbers must be the same, that is, Port 1 can only protect
TXP_MR_10E
Port 1, Port 2 can only protect Port 2, etc.

MXP_MR_2.5G
TXPP_MR_2.5G A splitter protection group is automatically created when a
TXPP_MR_2.5G or MXPP_MR_2.5G card is installed. You can
MXPP_MR_2.5G
edit the splitter protection group name.
