2.1.11.5  Topological Links 
Topological links are unidirectional or bidirectional for ONS 15600 SONET NEs. 
2.1.11.6  PTPs 
All PTPs are bidirectional for the ONS 15600 SONET. These ports are always in channelized 
mode. PTPs support In Service and Out of Service–Maintenance values for the service state 
attribute. 
2.1.11.7  CTPs 
All CTPs are in channelized mode for the ONS 15600 SONET. Alarm monitoring cannot be 
turned on or off for CTPs. 
2.1.11.8  SNCs 
One ONS 15600 SONET NE supports a maximum of 1536 STS SNCs. 
2.1.11.9  Protection 
The ONS 15600 SONET supports 1+1 protection to create redundancy for optical ports. Protect 
ports must match the working ports. For example, port 1 on an OC-48 card can be protected only 
by port 1 on another OC-48 card.  
2.1.11.10 Autodiscovery 
The ONS 15600 SONET supports automatic discovery of connected elements. Prime Optical can 
connect to one node and retrieve information about all connected nodes. The first time Prime 
Optical connects to a node, it retrieves only the IP address of the connected node; Prime Optical 
does not retrieve the node name. However, Prime Optical must report this element to the users. 
Because the IP address is unique, Prime Optical initializes the name of the newly discovered 
element with the IP address. An object creation event is generated for this managed element with 
the IP address as the name. Later, Prime Optical connects to this element and retrieves all 
information, including the actual name, and an AVC event is generated for the managed element 
name. The NMS listens to the AVC event for the managed element name and invokes 
managedElementManager::ManagedElementManager_I:: getManagedElement. 
2.1.12  ONS 15600 SDH 
 for the ONS 15600 SDH software releases 
that Prime Optical 10.3 supports. 
2.1.12.1  Slots 
The ONS 15600 SDH is a single-shelf NE with 14 slots. The TSC card must occupy slot 5 or slot 
10. The CXC cards are always 1+1 redundant in slots 6/7 and 8/9. Each CXC card occupies two 
slots. Slots 1 to 4 and 11 to 14 are reserved for optical I/O cards. SSXC cards replace CXC cards 
from release 5.0 of the NE. For more information, refer to the Cisco ONS 15600 SDH user 
documentation. 
2.1.12.2  Topological Links 
Topological links are unidirectional or bidirectional for ONS 15600 SDH NEs. 
2.1.12.3  PTPs 
All PTPs are bidirectional for the ONS 15600 SDH. These ports are always in channelized mode. 
PTPs support In Service and Out of Service–Maintenance values for the service state attribute.
