This course is intended for network professionals, including designers, implementation staff, network operations center personnel,

and support staff who are involved with the deployment, operations, and maintenance of the Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP system.

• Cisco ONS 15454 Turn Up, Test Provisioning and Operation Training (OCTPO)

Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:

• List and describe the major features and benefits of the Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP data cards.
• List and describe the major features and benefits of a Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP system for data over DWDM.
• Understand G.709 encapsulation and forward error correction and configure the 2.5 Gigabit transponder, 2.5 Gigabit and 10 Gigabit data cards, and Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet crossponders with G.709 options.
• Understand G.7041 GFP and configure the 2.5 Gigabit and 10 Gigabit data cards.
• Understand Ethernet options for Layer 1 transport using the Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet crossponder cards.
• Understand Ethernet options for Layer 2 protected and unprotected data ring circuits using the Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet crossponder cards.
• Understand general queuing theory and quality of service (QoS) as implemented in the Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet crossponder cards.
• Understand the ADM-10G time division multiplexing options for data, configure the cards, and create data circuits.
   

This lab-intensive course introduces you to the Cisco ONS 15454 Multiservice Transport Platform (MSTP)dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) Release 8 data features and functions.

You will learn the important theoretical concepts that underlie data encapsulation and how they are put to use in the Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP system. You will gain practical knowledge and skills to successfully deploy data over DWDM in your network.

You will be able to determine the right MSTP cards to be based on the requirements of your network. In seven hands-on labs, you will learn to configure Cisco Transport Controller, the 2.5-Gigabit transponders, the 2.5 Gigabit and 10-Gigabit data cards, the Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet crossponders, and the 10 Gigabit Add-Drop Multiplexer (ADM-10G).

There is also a review of G.709 encapsulation, G.7041 Generic Framing Protocol (GFP), forward error correction, and Ethernet. This course combines lecture materials and hands-on labs throughout to make sure that you are able to successfully deploy a Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP data over DWDM network.
