I was just about to order some 3800 series routers when I deiscovered that they don't support (yet?) any optical interfaces. Does anyone have an idea when they will change this? Will it be an IOS upgrade or a hardware change? Any thoughts...
I am new to the security arena and looking for some good references on how to configure some 3700 series routers for VPN tunneling. Can someone please direct me to some good web content or textbooks that will explain and walk me through the configur...
I have set up a small ring of 15454's. When I am logged into the node (via CTC), I can recognize and speak to all nodes. When one of our other engineers logs into a different node on the same ring using a different username and password, they can o...
We just received several ONS 15454 boxes pre-loaded with 4.1.1 software. It was also shipped with the 4.6.1 software on CD. What functionality do you gain with the 4.6 software? Is it recommended to upgrade to the 4.6? Thanks for your help...

If you don't mind spending some money on a text, get the "Building Cisco Metro Optical Networks (METRO)" from Cisco Press. Its a great text, It reviews voice and SONET basics, focuses on the ONS 15454 platform, and has good stuff about DWDM. Enjoy....
We have a Marconi 1200 ASX on the front end feeding an OC3 into the ONS 15454 OC3 IR 1310 module. We have been monitoring the stats on the ATM box and are getting BIP's that come in slowly, maybe 1 every 30 seconds or so. We have GPS timing system ...
Thanks for the help. I am guessing that the ONS 15454 OC3 IR 1310 card will accept the multimode input. Will the box transmit this signal over the aggregate if the multimode span is short(30 meters)?
