Not all boards can be inserted to master/slave subracks. Project A in country I is used as an example. In the engineering design phase of this project, there are too many SLH14 fibers. To facilitate fiber maintenance, two SLH41 boards cannot be inserted into adjacent slots and SLH41 boards cannot be inserted in slots at the edge of a subrack.
For services with heavy traffic, SLH41 boards can be installed in two subracks in master/slave mode. According to the feedback from field engineers, no SLH41 board can be queried on the NMS.
There are restrictions on subracks for housing boards that support packet/SDH services.
If the software version of TN11SCC is later than 5.35 in the master subrack of the OSN 6800, TN52SCC can be configured in a slave subrack. To ensure automatic software synchronization, ensure that the TN11SCC software package includes the TN52SCC software package.
