Configuring the Wavelengths That Are Added and Dropped by the IPLC
By default, wavelengths on the IPLC ports are in blocked mode. You must configure the IPLC to add or drop a specifc wavelength. This topic describes the default wavelength mapping for the IPLC ports and how to configure the IPLC to add or drop a specific wavelength.
All port wavelength frequencies are controlled by the IPLC’s wavelength selective switch (WSS) and configured on a wavelength-by-wavelength basis.
IPLC ports can also be switched-in to an optical interface on the same chassis or a remote chassis, or you can express-in a wavelength to a different IPLC.
Before you start this procedure, make sure that you configure the wavelength on the remote optical interface so that the wavelength is compatible with the wavelength you are switching on the IPLC.
Table 1 lists the default port, frequency, and wavelength mapping for both of the IPLC modules. The wavelength you want to support must be listed in Table 1.
