Node View

Step 2   Select View > Refresh Card Display from the menu bar. EMS refreshes the node view display to reflect newly inserted cards.

Step 2   In the Designated Card Type field, select the desired card type from the pull-down list. EMS displays only the cards that are compatible with the selected slot.

The following modules can be provisioned in EMS:

• Main Control Card—Move the mouse over the MCC indicator in the upper right corner of the IAD1101 node view. The indicator turns orange, along with the Ethernet, RS-232, and Battery connectors.

• Integrated T1 with V.35—Move the mouse over the T1 indicator, below the MCC indicator. The indicator turns orange, along with the T1/1, T1/2, and V.35 ports. (See Figure 1-X).

• Integrated FXS—Move the mouse over the FXS/16 module indicator in the lower left corner.

• Expansion Slot—Move the mouse over the expansion slot in the upper left corner.

To launch the plugin card provision window, click on the orange module or indicator. (See Cisco Integrated Access Device Hardware installation Guide, document number 2A07101.)

Step 2   Set the Admin Status field to InService.

Step 3   Click Apply to place the card in service.

Step 4   Click the Exit button on the left side of the window to return to node view.

Step 2   In the Admin Status for Selected Cards field, select inService.

Step 3   In the Card List window, select the line cards to be placed in service.

Step 4   Click the Apply button to put the cards in service. EMS works down the list, changing each outOfService card to inService.

Step 5   Click the Exit button on the left side of the window to return to node view.

If one card fails, the second card will automatically restore the traffic through the chassis to the backplane. This ensures greater dependability in the event of a hardware failure.

Broadband protection can be provisioned only on designated broadband slots. Two pairs of slots in the Cisco 6732 chassis are designated for broadband protection:

• Slots 17 and 18

• Slots 19 and 20

In addition to provisioning broadband protection with EMS, the protected cards require a special cable, provided with the card, which is designed specifically for joining the two cards. For more information, see the Cisco 6732 Full Access Device Hardware Installation Guide.

Note   Extended Super Frame (ESF) connections and inter-node data links (INDL) are not protected with broadband line card protection.

To provision broadband protection, perform the following steps from node view:

Step 2   Set the following fields to provision broadband 1:1 protection:

• Protected Switch Direction—Select ProtectingToProtected, which allows the protecting card to take over for the protected card.

• Protection Group ID—Select 1 for slots 17 and 18, or 2 for slots 19 and 20.

• Protected Card—Enter the slot number of the active card. This is the card that remains active during normal operation.

• Protecting Card—Enter the slot number of the standby card. This is the card that becomes active in the event of an active card failure.

• Protect Revertive—Select Yes. This allows the active card to switch back into service automatically when fully functional.

• Protect Switch Request—Select Release. This allows the switch request to be established.

Step 3   Click Apply to activate broadband 1:1 protection.

Step 4   Repeat this procedure to provision another protection group.
