This chapter includes instructions for unlocking the entities that you locked when completing the provisioning tasks and then verifying the subscriber settings that you completed in the preceding chapters. These two tasks are the final steps for provisioning subscribers.
This chapter includes the following sections:
Once you have entered all port, subscriber, and VCI/VPI data, you must unlock any affected entities to place them in service. Modules and ports cannot provide transmission service in a Locked state. Unlocking entities requires you to click Unlocked in the appropriate dialog boxes, and then click Apply.
Putting a logical pool and provisioned subscriber into service requires unlocking the following associated entities:
Consider the following guidelines for unlocking entities:
This section includes the following set of instructions. You can unlock entities in any order that is most convenient for you. The sequence presented here would be intuitive if you have just completed provisioning subscribers.
To unlock a subscriber, follow these steps:
Step 2 Choose Port Properties and Configuration.
The Port Configuration tab on the Module Properties dialog box opens, as shown in Figure 5-1.
Step 3 Click Edit Subscriber.
The Subscriber Properties dialog box opens (Figure 5-2).
Step 4 Click Unlocked.
Step 5 Click Apply.
ViewRunner unlocks the subscriber for service.
Step 6 Click OK to return to the LIM Properties dialog box.
The subscriber is now unlocked for service.
Complete the following steps to unlock a port:
Step 2 Choose Port Properties and Configuration from the Module menu.
The Port Configuration tab on the Module Properties dialog box opens shown in Figure 5-3.
Step 3 Click Unlocked.
Step 4 Click Apply for ViewRunner to unlock that port for service.
Step 5 Click OK to return to the Chassis View.
Complete the following steps to unlock a module:
Step 2 Choose Module Properties and Configuration.
The Module Configuration tab on the Module Properties dialog box opens, as shown in Figure 5-4.
Step 3 Click Unlocked.
Step 4 Click Apply for ViewRunner to unlock that module for service.
Step 5 Click OK to return to the Chassis View.
After you unlock the ViewRunner entities, you should verify the provisioning settings that you have added or modified for subscribers. You should also check the PVC settings. The subscribers should be trained and connected for you to properly check their settings.
Complete the following steps to verify the settings that you have provisioned for subscribers:
Step 2 Choose Port Properties and Status to open the Port Status tab on the Module Properties dialog box shown in Figure 5-5.
Step 3 Check to see whether the CPE is trained by checking the ATU-C Port fields.
Step 4 Verify the upstream and downstream settings.
You can get an overview of all subscriber settings by opening the View All Subscribers dialog box. Follow these steps.
Step 2 Choose View All Subscribers from the menu to open the View All Subscribers dialog box.
Step 3 To view individual subscriber's properties, click the blue, underlined hypertext.
The Subscriber Properties dialog box for that subscriber opens.
Finally, you should verify all subscriber PVCs by completing the following steps:
Step 2 Choose View Subscriber PVCs from the menu to open the Subscriber PVCs dialog box, shown in Figure 5-7.
Step 3 Scroll across the Subscriber PVCs dialog box and check the settings for Subscriber VCI/VPI, Network VCI/VPI, Priority, and Latency.
Step 4 Click Close when you have finished verifying the subscriber PVC settings.
After you have verified the subscriber settings, you are ready to use the Cisco 6100 Series system.
You have completed the tasks for provisioning subscribers for a Direct Connect configuration. The principles and procedures you have learned in the previous sections give you the basis to set up subtending, which is described in "Subtending in a Digital Off-Hook Configuration."
