Caution Traffic is unprotected during a protection switch.
c. Start CTC for the node that is connected through its west port to the target node. (In the Figure 5-33
on page 5-44 example, this is Node 3.) Click the Maintenance > Ring tabs.
d. From the West Switch list, choose FORCE RING. Click Apply.
Step 3 Start CTC on the target node.
Step 4 Click the Circuits tab. Write down the circuit information or, from the File menu, choose Print or
Export to print or export the information; you will need it to restore the circuits later. See the “Printing
CTC Data” section on page 2-29 and the “Exporting CTC Data into Other Applications” section on
page 2-30 for more information.
Step 5 Delete the circuits on the card you are removing:
a. Highlight the circuit(s). To choose multiple circuits, press the Shift or Ctrl key.
b. Click Delete.
c. On the Delete Circuit dialog box, click Yes.
Step 6 Delete the SDH DCC termination on the card you are removing:
a. Click the Provisioning > SDH DCC tabs.
b. From the SDCC Terminations list, click the SDH DCC you need to delete and click Delete.
Step 7 Disable the ring on the target node:
a. Click the Provisioning > Ring tabs.

Step 8 If an STM-N card is a timing source, choose the Provisioning > Timing tabs and set timing to Internal.
Step 9 Place the ports on the card out of service:
a. Double-click the card.
b. On the Provisioning > Line tabs in the Status section, choose Out of Service for each port.
Step 10 Physically remove the card.
Step 11 Insert the card into its new slot and wait for the card to boot.
Step 12 To delete the card in CTC from its former slot, right-click the card in node view and choose Delete Card
from the list of options.
Step 13 Place the port(s) back in service. See the “Set Card Ports In Service” procedure on page 5-60.
Step 14 Follow the steps described in the “Setting Up MS-SPRings” section on page 5-25 to reenable the ring
using the same cards (in their new slots) and ports for east and west. Use the same MS-SPRing Ring ID
and Node ID that was used before the trunk card was moved.
Step 15 Recreate the circuits that were deleted. See “Creating VC High-Order Path Circuits” section on page 6-2.
Step 16 If you use line timing and the card you are moving is a timing reference, reenable the timing parameters
on the card. See the “Setting Up ONS 15454 SDH Timing” section on page 3-16 for instructions.
