Note
To avoid network performance issues, Cisco recommends managing a maximum of 50 nodes
concurrently with CTC. The 50 nodes can be on a single DCC or split across multiple DCCs. Cisco does
not recommend running multiple CTC sessions when managing two or more large networks.
To manage more than 50 nodes, Cisco recommends using Cisco Transport Manager (CTM). If you do
use CTC to manage more than 50 nodes, you can improve performance by adjusting the heap size; see
the “General Troubleshooting” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Troubleshooting Guide. You
can also create login node groups; see the “
