The Upgrade of Common Services to the ASON Services Fails Because a Client Service Is Available at the Network Layer

The upgrade of common services to the ASON services fails because a client service is available at the network layer.

Product

OptiX OSN 6800, OSN8800

Fault Type

ASON

Symptom

To use the ASON function on the OptiX OSN 6800 V100R003, the common services need to be upgraded to the ASON services. Select the OCh trail over which the services travel on the T2000 and then perform the upgrade. The upgrade, however, fails. This indicates that a client service is available on the OCh trail.

Cause Analysis

The OptiX OSN 6800 V100R003 supports only the optical-layer ASON solution and does not support the electrical-layer ASON solution. To ensure successful upgrade of the common services to the ASON services, all services on the OCh layer, such as client-side services, ODU1 services, and ODU2 services, must be deleted from the network layer.

Procedure

1. Choose Trail > WDM Trail Management from the Main Menu on the T2000. In the displayed window, delete the client-side services on the OCh trail. Then, perform the upgrade. The upgrade is successful.

Result

The problem is solved. That is, the upgrade is successful.

Reference Information

None.
