Course Content
This course is designed to develop a practical understanding of the Cisco ONS 15454 SONET Multiservice Provisioning Platform (MSPP) and its new switching capabilities. Using Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) and Cisco IOS Software, students learn how to provision Layer 2, including VLANs, Rapid Spanning-Tree Protocol, and Resilient Packet Ring (RPR), on the ML-Series Multilayer Ethernet line cards.
The labs allow students to build an optical SONET network and implement Cisco Systems Metro Ethernet services, Ethernet Relay Service (ERS), Ethernet Wire Service (EWS), and Ethernet Multipoint Service (EMS).
Course Objectives
After completing this course the student should be able to:
- Select and configure required Cisco ONS 15454 SONET MSPP hardware that enables Ethernet connectivity and traffic transport.
- Configure administrative parameters on a node using Cisco Transport Controller and Cisco IOS Software.
- Implement Layer 2 features including VLANs, Spanning Tree Protocol, Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol, and Protocol Tunneling.
- Implement quality of service (QoS) based on service-level agreements.
- Build a network topology with resiliency through redundancy.
- Perform the required steps to implement Metro Ethernet services and deliver Ethernet connectivity to the customer site.
- Describe, configure and troubleshoot three Metro Ethernet deployment solutions (ERS, EWS, and EMS).
- Implement basic troubleshooting techniques in environments that use Cisco ONS 15454 SONET MSPP.
