LCT OPERATION

1.6 NETWORK ELEMENT SETUP


This chapter describes the procedures for provisioning a network
element (NE). Provisioning sets up the operating parameters for each
plug-in unit in the SRT 1F.
The Provisioning menu provides the following commands:
Service State Changes the state of individual units and
facilities in the SRT 1F system.
Facility Sets facility formats and thresholds for
aggregate and tributary facilities and sets
alarm attributes for all units on the shelf.
System Sets all parameters related to the operation
of the entire NE that do not depend on
traffic.
Options include trace, NE ID, date and
time, performance monitoring (PM) time,
and other system parameters.
Section DCC Sets up communication between NEs.
Options include section data
communication channel (SDCC) service
state, link access procedure on the D-
channel (LAPD), and SDCC attribute
parameters.
OSSI Interface Connects to the NE via an X.25 network.
Options include operation support system
interface (OSSI) type and service state,
link access procedure-balanced (LAPB),
and other parameters.
Network Layer Protocol Selects the role of the NE in the network
layer routing and Protocol administrative
domains.
TARP Control Specifies the attributes associated with the
terminal identifier (TID) address resolution
protocol (TARP).
LAN Parameters Edits attributes associated with the local
area network (LAN).
TCP/IP Interface Edits service state and attributes
associated with TCP/IP.
Note: Changing the Equipment/Facility/Radio Protection system state
causes traffic loss.
