Cisco Cisco ONS 15454 SONET Multiservice Provisioning Platform (MSPP) Notas de publicación

Rarely, there is a delay in CTC before the correct card status is displayed after a protection switch. When 
a manual or forced switch is made to a protection type, the protection switch occurs immediately, but the 
card status might take a while approximately 2 minutes to show up under rare circumstances. If a switch 
is not reflected right away, wait for the status change to occur. This issue is under investigation.

When a new circuit is created around a ring (path protection configuration or BLSR), the SD BER or SF 
BER alarm can be raised depending on the order in which the spans are provisioned.  The alarms will 
eventually clear by themselves. Traffic is not affected. This issue will be resolved in a future release.

While upgrading nodes from releases prior to 3.2, CTC might lose connection to the far end nodes. When 
this occurs, you will not be able to ping the grayed-out nodes; however, if you continue the upgrade, this 
problem resolves itself. This issue is resolved in Release 3.2, but can still occur when upgrading from 
nodes with earlier software releases.

XCVTs (both active and standby) reboot continuously when the K3 byte is mapped to the E2 byte on one 
side of a WTR span. The rebooting occurs after the WTR timer expires. This has been seen on a two fiber 
BLSR with OC-48AS. To avoid this issue, if possible, change the K3 mapping on both ends of the span 
before creating the ring; or, alternatively, you can prevent the ring from reverting during the K3 mapping 
by setting the Ring Reversion time to “never.” Once you have completed the mapping of the K3 byte to 
the E2 byte on both sides, return the Ring Reversion to its normal value. This issue will be resolved in a 
future release.

If you are deploying the Cisco ONS 15454 within a European Union country that requires compliance 
with the EN300-386-TC requirements for Conducted Emissions, you must obtain and install the Cisco 
ONS 15454 Conducted Emissions kit (15454-EMEA-KIT) in order to comply with this standard.

Before installing or seating the G1000-4 Ethernet card on  node running Release 3.1 or prior, you must 
upgrade the software on that node to Release 3.2 or later. This is as designed.

If you use CTC, JRE, and the Netscape browser with a Microsoft Windows platform, you must ensure 
that any new installation of Netscape uses the same Netscape directory as the previous installation did, 
if such an installation existed. If you install Netscape using a different path for the plugins directory, you 
will need to reinstall JRE so that it can detect the new directory.
