To install Netscape colors for Netscape use, type:
# netscape -install
To limit Netscape to 32 colors so that if the requested color is not available, Netscape chooses
the closest color option, type:
# netscape -ncols 32
CTC requires a full 24-color palette to run properly. When using color-intensive applications
such as Netscape in UNIX, it is possible that UNIX might run out of colors to use for CTC.
The -install or the -ncols 32 command line options limit the number of colors that Netscape
uses.

If you are logging into ONS 15454 nodes running different releases of CTC software, log into
the node running the most recent release. If you log into a node running an older release, you
will receive an INCOMPATIBLE-SW alarm for each node in the network running a new release,
and CTC will not be able to manage these nodes. To check the software version of a node, select
About CTC from the CTC Help menu. This displays the ONS 15454 software version for each
node visible on the network view. If the node is not visible, the software version can be read from
the LCD display. To resolve an alarm, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide.
