<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 />
