Switching a Wavelength to an Optical Interface on a Remote Chassis
This topic describes how to configure the IPLC module to switch
a wavelength on the ADD and DROP ports to a compatible optical interface on a remote chassis.
For a list of compatible optical interfaces that are compatible with the IPLC ports, see PTX Series IPLC Compatibility.
Before you begin, complete the following tasks:
Install the optical interfaces and configure the wavelength number on the interface so that it is compatible with the wavelength number on the IPLC. See Configuring the 10-Gigabit or 100-Gigabit Ethernet DWDM Interface Wavelength.
Install the IPLC module at the remote location and connect the
ADDandDROPports to the respective remote optical interfaces.
To configure the IPLC to switch a wavelength to an optical interface on a remote chassis:
- Specify the slot of the local IPLC module and access the
IPLC configuration hierarchy.[edit]user@host# edit chassis fpc slot optical-options
For example, if the IPLC module resides in slot 1:
[edit]user@host# edit chassis fpc 1 optical-options - Specify the wavelength to switch to the remote optical
interface. [edit chassis fpc 1 optical-options]user@host# set wavelength nm switch remote
For example, if you want to add or drop wavelength 1550.12 to a remote optical interface:
[edit chassis fpc 1 optical-options]user@host# set wavelength 1550.12 switch remote - Verify that the configuration is correct. For example:[edit chassis fpc 1 optical-options]user@host# show
wavelength 1550.12 { switch { remote; } } - If the configuration is correct, save it.[edit chassis fpc 1 optical-options]user@host# commit
