<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. View PARIS node on network management system and confirm management system is<br />
managing node and working correctly.<br />
2. Set up and monitor a circuit from Paris - LA<br />
3. Interrupt the IP communication primary link to Paris by removing DCN RJ45 connector.<br />
4. View management system and confirm node remains a managed item and that traffic is<br />
not effected<br />
Expected result:<br />
Alarm should appear within 10 seconds showing loss of primary DCN connection.<br />
The node should remain to be a manage node on management system with no loss of<br />
functionality.<br />
No effect on traffic on Paris-LA circuit<br />
Any other comments:<br />
None<br />
TCA057: Reaction to loss of all out of band DCN links on single node.<br />
Purpose<br />
Confirm reaction to loss of all out-of-band DCN connections to the node.<br />
<strong>Test</strong> method:<br />
1. Following on from TCA056<br />
2. View Paris node on network management system and confirm management system is<br />
managing node and working correctly.<br />
3. Interrupt the IP communication backup link to Paris by removing DCN RJ45 connector.<br />
4. View management system and confirm status of node.<br />
5. Attempt to add trail, using resources within unmanaged trail.<br />
Expected result:<br />
Critical Alarm of loss of both DCN connection within 10 seconds.<br />
Management of the node should still be possible via in-band<br />
Paris-LA circuit should still be error free<br />
Any other comments:<br />
None<br />
TCA058: Reaction to reconnection of DCN on single node.<br />
Purpose<br />
Confirm reaction to re-establishment to DCN connections to the node.<br />
<strong>Test</strong> method:<br />
1. Restore the IP communication secondary link by replacing DCN RJ45 connector.<br />
2. View management system and confirm node returns as a managed item.<br />
3. Check that node resources are available <strong>for</strong> use.<br />
4. Restore the IP communication primary link by replacing DCN RJ45 connector.<br />
Expected result:<br />
Critical Alarm of loss of DCN connection removed within 10 seconds.<br />
The node is shown as a fully managed node on management system within 1 minute.<br />
No effect on traffic over node.<br />
