Expected result:<br />
• SONET/SDH testers report error free transmission.<br />
• Switch management reports no alarms or warning.<br />
• Trail is routed by the obvious one hop route between LA and Paris.<br />
• The management system should clearly display the following;<br />
Current route and status.<br />

TCA005: Configure unprotected STS-48c trail over OC-48 interface.<br />
Purpose:<br />
To confirm support <strong>for</strong> STS-48c concatenation.<br />
<strong>Test</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Optical</strong> <strong>Grooming</strong> <strong>Switches</strong><br />
<strong>Test</strong> method:<br />
1. Start off with Configuration A, with no trails configured.<br />
2. Use 2 OC-48 testers to generate bulk-filled STS-48c within an OC-48 and connect to<br />
tribs: PAR#8 and LA#8.<br />
3. Use network management system to configure STS-48c trail between PAR#8 and LA#8.<br />
4. Confirm, using switch management system, the creation of the required trail.<br />
5. Confirm, using SONET/SDH testers, error free operation of the created trail.<br />
6. On completion of the test leave trail configured with testers showing error free operation.<br />
Expected result:<br />
• SONET/SDH testers report error free transmission.<br />
• Switch management reports no alarms or warning.<br />
• Trail is routed by the obvious one hop route between LA and Paris.<br />
• The management system should clearly display the following;<br />
Current route and status.<br />
Available resources.<br />
Other comments:<br />
NB. Use OC-48 tester <strong>for</strong> this test not OC-192. The OC-192 tester will be needed <strong>for</strong> next<br />
test.<br />
TCA006: Configure VC4 trail over STM-64 trib.<br />
Purpose:<br />
To confirm SDH STM-64 tribs are supported.<br />
To confirm VC4 granularity supported.<br />
To confirm same node can support SONET and SDH interfaces at same time.<br />
<strong>Test</strong> method:<br />
1. Following successful completion of TCA005 – PAR#8-LA#8 trail should still be up and<br />
running.<br />
2. Use 2 SDH testers to generate bulk-filled VC4 within STM-64 and connect to tribs<br />
PAR#13 and LA#11<br />
3. Use switch management system to set up VC4 trail between PAR#13 and LA#11 .<br />
Expected result:<br />
• SDH testers show LA#11-PAR#13 VC4 circuit running error free.<br />
• SDH testers show LA#8-PAR#8 STS-48c circuit running error free.<br />
• Switch management system alarm free and circuit routes are via the obvious LA-PAR<br />
one hop.<br />
