B.1  Cisco IOS XR NE Explorer

When you choose Configuration > NE Explorer for the Cisco CRS-1 or Cisco XR 12000, the window displayed by CTM consists of a tree on the left side and a rack graphic on the right. The tree provides a hierarchical view and alarm status of the device's racks, slots, ports, line cards, and power supplies. The tree view shows the card's operational status as a string after the card name, such as [Active: Running ENA]. The tree view displays the power supply slots as /rack.0/slot.PS0 and /rack.0/slot.PS1. The Rack View window provides information about the line card/fabric chassis that is selected in the NE Explorer tree. The NE Explorer is ported from the CRS-1 or Cisco XR 12000 craft web interface (CWI).

The Configuration and Administration menus in the NE Explorer window allow you to configure the CRS-1 or Cisco XR 12000 device. See 5.6  Configuring and Administering the CRS-1 and XR 12000, page 5-41 for detailed information about the Configuration and Administration menu options.

Figure B-1 NE Explorer—CRS-1

Figure B-2 NE Explorer—Cisco XR 12000

B.1.1  Rack View

The Rack View window displays a graphic of the CRS-1 or Cisco XR 12000 line-card chassis that is selected in the NE Explorer tree. Moving the mouse over the graphic displays the current number of critical, major, minor, and warning alarms for the rack, slot, or card. The right-click menu opens the Alarm Browser or the Alarm Log for the selected entity.

The background color of alarms in the Rack View window corresponds to alarm severity. The background alarm color is not configurable. The operational status of the rack is shown at the top of the graphic.

You can hide or show the front or rear chassis (for the CRS-1 only; this option is not available for the XR 12000). Right-click the chassis and choose Hide Front Chassis or Hide Rear Chassis. The menu option changes to Show Front Chassis or Show Rear Chassis.

---

Tip The Magnify and Panned Zoom icons displayed in the Rack View are dimmed for chassis that contain a limited number of cards (where an adequately detailed view is already available without the need to zoom). For chassis that contain a higher number of cards—for example, the CRS-1, Cisco XR 12416, and Cisco XR 12016 models of the Cisco XR 12000—icons become active. To see an enlarged view of the entire chassis, click the Magnify icon, then click an area of the Rack View where you require a magnified view. A new window appears showing a magnified view centered on the location where you clicked. You can also click the Panned Zoom icon to see a magnified view of a limited area of the Rack View. A small expanded window view of the area of interest is displayed overlaying the Rack View. Move the cursor over an area of interest to see a magnified view.

B.2  Cisco 7600 NE Explorer

When you choose Configuration > NE Explorer for the Cisco 7600, the window displayed by CTM consists of a tree on the left side and a rack view graphic on the right. The tree provides a hierarchical view and alarm status of the device's racks, slots, ports, and line cards. Empty slots do not appear on the tree. The Rack View window displays the router processors, line cards, and chassis that the Cisco 7600 controls. Empty slots and unmanaged cards are visible in the Rack View window.

The Configuration and Administration menus in the NE Explorer window allow you to configure the Cisco 7600 device. When these menu options are selected, corresponding application windows appear. See 5.15  Configuring and Administering the Cisco 7600, page 5-330 for detailed information about the Configuration menu options. A user with read-only access can perform read-write operations in the Cisco 7600 NE Explorer.

B.7.1.5.1  General Subtab

The General subtab displays general timing information.

Table B-59 Field Descriptions for the General Subtab 

Field	Description
General Timing
Timing Mode	Set the node timing mode: •External—The ONS 15310 CL derives its timing from a BITS source wired to the backplane pins. •Line—Timing is derived from an OC-N card (non-DWDM nodes) or OSC card (DWDM nodes) that is optically connected to the timing node. •Mixed—Timing is set to external and line timing references. Caution Mixed timing might cause timing loops; it is recommended that you use this mode with care.
SSM Message Set	Choose the sync status message (SSM) set level supported by your network. SSM is a SONET protocol that communicates information about the quality of the timing source. SSM messages are carried on the S1 byte of the SONET Line layer. They enable SONET devices to automatically select the highest quality timing reference and to avoid timing loops. If a Generation 1 node receives a Generation 2 message, the message will be mapped down to the next available Generation 1. For example, an ST3E message becomes an ST3.
Revertive	If checked, the ONS 15310 CL reverts to a primary reference source after the conditions that caused it to switch to a secondary timing reference are corrected.
Reversion Time	Use the Reversion Time field to specify the time in half-minute increments.
Quality of RES	If your timing source supports the reserved S1 byte, you set the timing quality here. (Most timing sources do not use RES.) Qualities are displayed in descending quality order as ranges. For example, ST3 < RES < ST2 means the timing reference is higher than a Stratum 3 and lower than a Stratum 2.
BITS-IN-OUT Facility Type
In Facility Type	Provision the BITS In facility type.
Out Facility Type	Provisions the BITS Out facility type.
BITS Facilities 1
In State	Set the BITS In state to In Service (IS) or Out of Service (OOS). If Timing Mode is set to External or Mixed, set the BITS In State for BITS-1 and/or BITS-2 to IS (In Service) depending on whether one or both BITS input pin pairs on the backplane are connected to the external timing source. If Timing Mode is set to Line, set the BITS In State to OOS.
Coding	Set to the coding used by your BITS reference, either B8ZS or AMI.
Framing	Set to the framing used by your BITS reference, either Extended Super Frame (ESF), or Super Frame (SF). SSM is not available with Super Frame.
Sync Messaging	If checked, enables the Synchronization Status Message (SSM) for BITS In. (SSM is not available if Framing is set to Super Frame.)
Admin SSM	If the Sync Messaging check box is not checked, you can choose the SSM Generation 2 type from the drop-down list.
BITS OUT Facilities
Out State	Set the BITS reference to IS (In Service) or OOS (Out of Service). For nodes set to Line timing with no equipment timed through BITS Out, set State to OOS. For nodes using External timing or Line timing with equipment timed through BITS Out, set State to IS.
Coding	Set to the coding used by your BITS reference, either B8ZS or AMI.
Framing	Set to the framing used by your BITS reference, either ESF or SF (D4). SSM is not available with Super Frame.
AIS Threshold	If SSM is disabled or Super Frame is used, set the quality level where a node sends an alarm indication signal (AIS) from the BITS-1 Out and BITS-2 Out backplane pins. An AIS is raised when the optical source for the BITS reference falls to or below the SSM quality level defined in this field.
LBO	If you are timing an external device connected to the BITS Out pins, set the distance between it and the ONS 15310 CL. Options are 0-133 ft. (Cisco default), 134-266 ft., 267-399 ft., 400-533 ft., and 534-655 ft.

B.7.1.5.2  Reference List Subtab

The Reference List subtab provides timing reference information.

Table B-60 Field Descriptions for the Reference List Subtab 

Field	Description
NE References	Allows you to define three timing references (Ref-1, Ref-2, Ref-3). The node uses Reference 1 unless a failure occurs on that reference, in which case, the node uses Reference 2. If that fails, the node uses Reference 3, which is typically set to the internal clock. This is the Stratum 3 clock provided on the TCC+. The options displayed depend on the Timing Mode setting. •Timing Mode set to External—Options are BITS-1, BITS-2, and Internal. •Timing Mode set to Line—Options are the node's working optical cards and Internal. Select the cards/ports that are directly or indirectly connected to the node wired to the BITS source; that is, the node's trunk cards. Set Reference 1 to the trunk card that is closest to the BITS source. For example, if Slot 5 is connected to the node wired to the BITS source, select Slot 5 as Reference 1. •Timing Mode set to Mixed—Both BITS and optical cards are available, allowing you to set a mixture of external BITS and optical trunk cards as timing references.
BITS-1 Out References	Allows you to define three timing references (Ref-1, Ref-2, Ref-3) for equipment wired to the BITS Out backplane pins. Normally, BITS Out is used with line nodes, so the options displayed are the working optical cards. BITS-1 Out is enabled as soon as BITS-1 facilities are placed in service.

B.7.1.5.3  Status Subtab

The Status subtab provides timing status information.

---

Note If you change any values in the Status subtab and click Apply at the bottom of the screen, the values are not set. Instead, use the following buttons to apply changes:

•Clear—Releases any existing switch request. For example, if you issue a Force Switch and then issue a Clear, the Force Switch request is released.

•Manual Switch—Switches the timing reference from one source to another.

•Force Switch—Switches the timing reference from one source to another. This request has a higher priority than the Manual Switch request.

B.7.1.11.1  Main Setup Subtab

The Main Setup subtab allows you to provision the OSI Network Entity Title (NET) address and the OSI routing mode.

Table B-73 Field Descriptions for the Main Setup Subtab 

Field	Description
Main Network Entity Title	Displays the node NET. The NET is used in OSI networks to identify the node to the end system (ES) or intermediate system (IS).
End System	Provisions the node as an OSI End System (ES). ESs send End System Hello (ESH) messages regularly to announce their presence to neighboring ISs and ESs. For the ONS 15310 CL, End System is the Cisco default.
Intermediate System Level 1	Provisions the node as an OSI Intermediate System (IS). ISs send Intermediate System Hello (ISH) messages regularly to announce their presence to neighboring ISs and ESs.
Intermediate System Level 1/Level 2	The ONS 15310 CL performs all IS functions. It communicates with other IS and ES nodes within an OSI area and broadcasts ISHs to IS nodes in other areas to which it is connected.
Node Routing Mode
L1 LSP Buffer Size	Sets the Level 1 Link State Protocol (LSP) data unit buffer size. The Cisco default 512.
L2 LSP Buffer Size	Sets the Level 2 Link State Protocol (LSP) data unit buffer size. The Cisco default 512.

B.7.1.11.2  TARP-Config Subtab

The TARP Config subtab allows you to provision the TID Address Resolution protocol (TARP). TARP is used when TL1 TIDs must be translated to an NSAP address. During the TID-to-NSAP translation, the TID is mapped to a NET; then, the NSAP is derived from the NET based on the NSAP selector value.

Table B-74 Field Descriptions for the TARP-Config Subtab 

Field	Description
TARP PDUs L1 Propagation	If checked (default), TARP Type 1 PDUs received by the node that are not excluded by the loop detection buffer are propagated to other NEs within the OSI Level 1 area. Type 1 PDUs request a protocol address that matches a target TID within a Level1 routing area. The propagation does not occur if the NE is the target of the Type 1 PDU and the PDUs are not propagated to the NE from which the PDU was received. Note This parameter is not used when the node is set to End System.
TARP PDUs Origination	If checked (default), the node performs all TARP configuration functions, including: •TID-to-NSAP resolution requests •NSAP-to-TID requests •TARP address changes Note TARP Echo and NSAP to TID are not supported.
L2 TARP Data Cache	If checked (default), the TIDs and NSAPs are added to the TDC before the node propagates the requests to other NEs. Note This parameter is designed for IS Level 1/Level 2 nodes that are connected to other IS Level 1/Level 2 nodes. Enabling the parameter for IS Level 1 nodes is not recommended.
LAN TARP Storm Suppression	If checked (default), enables the TARP storm suppression to prevent redundant TARP PDUs from being propagated across the network.
Type 4 PDU Delay	Sets the amount of time that will pass before the Type 4 PDU is generated. The Cisco default value is 60 seconds. The range is from 0 to 255 seconds.
TARP PDUs L2 Propagation	If checked (default), TARP Type 2 PDUs received by the node that are not excluded by the loop detection buffer are propagated to other NEs within the OSI Level 2 area. Type 2 PDUs request a protocol address that matches a target TID within a Level 2 routing area. The propagation occurs if the NE is the not the target of the Type 2 PDU and the PDUs are not propagated to the NE from which the PDU was received.
L1 TARP Data Cache	If checked, the node maintains a TARP data cache (TDC). The TDC is a database of TID to NSAP pairs created from TARP Type 3 PDUs received by the node. TARP 3 PDUs are responses to Type 1 and Type 2 PDUs and modified by TARP Type 4 PDUs (TID to NSAP updates or corrections).
LDB	If checked, enables the TARP loop detection buffer (LDB). The LDB prevents TARP PDUs from being sent more than once on the same subnet.
Send Type 4 PDU on Startup	If checked, a TARP Type 4 PDU is originated during the initial ONS 15310 CL startup. Type 4 PDUs indicate a TID or NSAP change has occurred at the NE. This is disabled by default.
Timers
LDB Entry	Sets the TARP LDB timer. The LDB buffer time is assigned to each LDB entry for which the TARP sequence number is zero. The Cisco default is 5 minutes. The range is from 1 to 10 minutes.
T1 Timer	Sets the amount of time to wait for response to a Type 1 Request PDU. Type 1 requests seek a specific NE TID within an OSI Level 1 area. The Cisco default is 15 seconds. The range is from 0 to 3600 seconds.
T3 Timer	Sets the amount of time to wait for an address resolution request. The Cisco default is 40 seconds. The range is from 0 to 3600 seconds.
LDB Flush	Sets the frequency period for flushing the LDB. The Cisco default is 5 minutes. The range is from 0 to 1440 minutes.
T2 Timer	Sets the amount of time to wait for a Type 2 Request PDU. TARP Type 2 requests seek a specific NE TID within an OSI Level 1 area. The Cisco default is 25 seconds. The range is from 0 to 3600 seconds.
T4 Timer	Sets the amount of time to wait for an error recovery. The timer begins after the T2 timer expires without successfully finding the NE TID. The Cisco default is 20 seconds. The range is from 0 to 3600 seconds.

B.8  ONS 15310 MA NE Explorer

When you choose Configuration > NE Explorer for the ONS 15310 MA, the window displayed by CTM consists of a tree on the left side and a properties pane on the right. The tree provides a hierarchical view and alarm status of the NE's physical shelves and slots. The properties pane shows information about the selected entity (NE or slot). See Node Properties Pane—ONS 15310 MA for more information.

Figure B-14 ONS 15310 MA NE Explorer

---

Note If CTC is launched from the web browser for an ONS 15310 MA node, the CTC GUI might look different from when it is launched from CTM. This discrepancy occurs because the latest version of CTC (for NE releases supported by CTM) is packaged with CTM. If launched from a browser, the CTC software is retrieved from the NE itself, which might be a version different from that packaged with CTM.

•Status Subtab

•Timing Report Subtab

B.8.1.5.1  General Subtab

The General subtab displays general timing information.

Table B-96 Field Descriptions for the General Subtab 

Field	Description
General Timing
Timing Mode	Set the node timing mode: •External—The ONS 15310 MA derives its timing from a BITS source wired to the backplane pins. •Line—Timing is derived from an OC-N card (non-DWDM nodes) or OSC card (DWDM nodes) that is optically connected to the timing node. •Mixed—Timing is set to external and line timing references. Caution Mixed timing might cause timing loops; it is recommended that you use this mode with care.
SSM Message Set	Choose the sync status message (SSM) set level supported by your network. SSM is a SONET protocol that communicates information about the quality of the timing source. SSM messages are carried on the S1 byte of the SONET Line layer. They enable SONET devices to automatically select the highest quality timing reference and to avoid timing loops. If a Generation 1 node receives a Generation 2 message, the message will be mapped down to the next available Generation 1. For example, an ST3E message becomes an ST3.
Revertive	If checked, the ONS 15310 MA reverts to a primary reference source after the conditions that caused it to switch to a secondary timing reference are corrected.
Reversion Time	Use the Reversion Time field to specify the time in half-minute increments.
Quality of RES	If your timing source supports the reserved S1 byte, you set the timing quality here. (Most timing sources do not use RES.) Qualities are displayed in descending quality order as ranges. For example, ST3 < RES < ST2 means the timing reference is higher than a Stratum 3 and lower than a Stratum 2.
BITS-IN-OUT Facility Type
In Facility Type	Provision the BITS In facility type.
Out Facility Type	Provisions the BITS Out facility type.
BITS Facilities 1
In State	Set the BITS In state to In Service (IS) or Out of Service (OOS). If Timing Mode is set to External or Mixed, set the BITS In State for BITS-1 and/or BITS-2 to IS (In Service) depending on whether one or both BITS input pin pairs on the backplane are connected to the external timing source. If Timing Mode is set to Line, set the BITS In State to OOS.
Coding	Set to the coding used by your BITS reference, either B8ZS or AMI.
Framing	Set to the framing used by your BITS reference, either Extended Super Frame (ESF), or Super Frame (SF). SSM is not available with Super Frame.
Sync Messaging	If checked, enables the Synchronization Status Message (SSM) for BITS In. (SSM is not available if Framing is set to Super Frame.)
Admin SSM	If the Sync Messaging check box is not checked, you can choose the SSM Generation 2 type from the drop-down list.
BITS OUT Facilities
Out State	Set the BITS reference to IS (In Service) or OOS (Out of Service). For nodes set to Line timing with no equipment timed through BITS Out, set State to OOS. For nodes using External timing or Line timing with equipment timed through BITS Out, set State to IS.
Coding	Set to the coding used by your BITS reference, either B8ZS or AMI.
Framing	Set to the framing used by your BITS reference, either ESF or SF (D4). SSM is not available with Super Frame.
AIS Thresh	If SSM is disabled or Super Frame is used, sets the quality level where a node sends an AIS from the BITS-1 Out and BITS-2 Out backplane pins. An AIS is raised when the optical source for the BITS reference falls to or below the SSM quality level defined in this field.
LBO	If you are timing an external device connected to the BITS Out pins, set the distance between it and the ONS 15327. Options are 0-133 ft. (Cisco default), 134-266 ft., 267-399 ft., 400-533 ft., and 534-655 ft.

B.8.1.5.2  Reference List Subtab

The Reference List subtab provides timing reference information.

Table B-97 Field Descriptions for the Reference List Subtab 

Field	Description
NE References	Allows you to define three timing references (Ref-1, Ref-2, Ref-3). The node uses Reference 1 unless a failure occurs on that reference, in which case, the node uses Reference 2. If that fails, the node uses Reference 3, which is typically set to the internal clock. This is the Stratum 3 clock provided on the TCC+. The options displayed depend on the Timing Mode setting. •Timing Mode set to External—Options are BITS-1, BITS-2, and Internal. •Timing Mode set to Line—Options are the node's working optical cards and Internal. Select the cards/ports that are directly or indirectly connected to the node wired to the BITS source; that is, the node's trunk cards. Set Reference 1 to the trunk card that is closest to the BITS source. For example, if Slot 5 is connected to the node wired to the BITS source, select Slot 5 as Reference 1. •Timing Mode set to Mixed—Both BITS and optical cards are available, allowing you to set a mixture of external BITS and optical trunk cards as timing references.
BITS-1 Out References	Allows you to define three timing references (Ref-1, Ref-2, Ref-3) for equipment wired to the BITS Out backplane pins. Normally, BITS Out is used with line nodes, so the options displayed are the working optical cards. BITS-1 Out is enabled as soon as BITS-1 facilities are placed in service.
BITS-2 Out References	Allows you to define three timing references (Ref-1, Ref-2, Ref-3) for equipment wired to the BITS Out backplane pins. Normally, BITS Out is used with line nodes, so the options displayed are the working optical cards. BITS-1 and BITS-2 Out are enabled as soon as BITS-1 and BITS-2 facilities are placed in service.

B.8.1.5.3  Status Subtab

The Status subtab provides timing status information.

---

Note If you change any values in the Status subtab and click Apply at the bottom of the screen, the values are not set. Instead, use the following buttons to apply changes:

•Clear—Releases any existing switch request. For example, if you issue a Force Switch and then issue a Clear, the Force Switch request is released.

•Manual Switch—Switches the timing reference from one source to another.

•Force Switch—Switches the timing reference from one source to another. This request has a higher priority than the Manual Switch request.

•TARP-TDC Subtab

•TARP-MAT Subtab

•Routers-Setup Subtab

•Subnets Subtab

•Tunnels Subtab

•IS-IS RIB Subtab

•ES-IS RIB Subtab

B.8.1.11.1  Main Setup Subtab

The Main Setup subtab allows you to provision the OSI Network Entity Title (NET) address and the OSI routing mode.

Table B-110 Field Descriptions for the Main Setup Subtab 

Field	Description
Main Network Entity Title	Displays the node NET. The NET is used in OSI networks to identify the node to the end system (ES) or intermediate system (IS).
End System	Provisions the node as an OSI End System (ES). ESs send End System Hello (ESH) messages regularly to announce their presence to neighboring ISs and ESs. For the ONS 15310 MA, End System is the Cisco default.
Intermediate System Level 1	Provisions the node as an OSI Intermediate System (IS). ISs send Intermediate System Hello (ISH) messages regularly to announce their presence to neighboring ISs and ESs.
Intermediate System Level 1/Level 2	The ONS 15310 MA performs all IS functions. It communicates with other IS and ES nodes within an OSI area and broadcasts ISHs to IS nodes in other areas to which it is connected.
Node Routing Mode
L1 LSP Buffer Size	Sets the Level 1 Link State Protocol (LSP) data unit buffer size. The Cisco default 512.
L2 LSP Buffer Size	Sets the Level 2 Link State Protocol (LSP) data unit buffer size. The Cisco default 512.

B.8.1.11.2  TARP-Config Subtab

The TARP Config subtab allows you to provision the TID Address Resolution protocol (TARP). TARP is used when TL1 TIDs must be translated to an NSAP address. During the TID-to-NSAP translation, the TID is mapped to a NET; then, the NSAP is derived from the NET based on the NSAP selector value.

Table B-111 Field Descriptions for the TARP-Config Subtab 

Field	Description
TARP PDUs L1 Propagation	If checked (default), TARP Type 1 PDUs received by the node that are not excluded by the loop detection buffer are propagated to other NEs within the OSI Level 1 area. Type 1 PDUs request a protocol address that matches a target TID within a Level1 routing area. The propagation does not occur if the NE is the target of the Type 1 PDU and the PDUs are not propagated to the NE from which the PDU was received. Note This parameter is not used when the node is set to End System.
TARP PDUs Origination	If checked (default), the node performs all TARP configuration functions, including: •TID-to-NSAP resolution requests •NSAP-to-TID requests •TARP address changes Note TARP Echo and NSAP to TID are not supported.
L2 TARP Data Cache	If checked (default), the TIDs and NSAPs are added to the TDC before the node propagates the requests to other NEs. Note This parameter is designed for IS Level 1/Level 2 nodes that are connected to other IS Level 1/Level 2 nodes. Enabling the parameter for IS Level 1 nodes is not recommended.
LAN TARP Storm Suppression	If checked (default), enables the TARP storm suppression to prevent redundant TARP PDUs from being propagated across the network.
Type 4 PDU Delay	Sets the amount of time that will pass before the Type 4 PDU is generated. The Cisco default value is 60 seconds. The range is from 0 to 255 seconds.
TARP PDUs L2 Propagation	If checked (default), TARP Type 2 PDUs received by the node that are not excluded by the loop detection buffer are propagated to other NEs within the OSI Level 2 area. Type 2 PDUs request a protocol address that matches a target TID within a Level 2 routing area. The propagation occurs if the NE is the not the target of the Type 2 PDU and the PDUs are not propagated to the NE from which the PDU was received.
L1 TARP Data Cache	If checked, the node maintains a TARP data cache (TDC). The TDC is a database of TID to NSAP pairs created from TARP Type 3 PDUs received by the node. TARP 3 PDUs are responses to Type 1 and Type 2 PDUs and modified by TARP Type 4 PDUs (TID to NSAP updates or corrections).
LDB	If checked, enables the TARP loop detection buffer (LDB). The LDB prevents TARP PDUs from being sent more than once on the same subnet.
Send Type 4 PDU on Startup	If checked, a TARP Type 4 PDU is originated during the initial ONS 15310 MA startup. Type 4 PDUs indicate a TID or NSAP change has occurred at the NE. This is disabled by default.
Timers
LDB Entry	Sets the TARP LDB timer. The LDB buffer time is assigned to each LDB entry for which the TARP sequence number is zero. The Cisco default is 5 minutes. The range is from 1 to 10 minutes.
T1 Timer	Sets the amount of time to wait for response to a Type 1 Request PDU. Type 1 requests seek a specific NE TID within an OSI Level 1 area. The Cisco default is 15 seconds. The range is from 0 to 3600 seconds.
T3 Timer	Sets the amount of time to wait for an address resolution request. The Cisco default is 40 seconds. The range is from 0 to 3600 seconds.
LDB Flush	Sets the frequency period for flushing the LDB. The Cisco default is 5 minutes. The range is from 0 to 1440 minutes.
T2 Timer	Sets the amount of time to wait for a Type 2 Request PDU. TARP Type 2 requests seek a specific NE TID within an OSI Level 1 area. The Cisco default is 25 seconds. The range is from 0 to 3600 seconds.
T4 Timer	Sets the amount of time to wait for an error recovery. The timer begins after the T2 timer expires without successfully finding the NE TID. The Cisco default is 20 seconds. The range is from 0 to 3600 seconds.
