We need help in doing an audit for our legacy SONET network to help us budget the migration and decommissioning of this platform. The rough start time for this is 30-60 days and it will be 100% remote work.
Scope:
• Audit ~400 SONET nodes and ~5,000 circuits
• Equipment is mostly comprised of Cisco 15454s
• Access will be via TL1 or CTC across customer VPN
• Identify
Reachability
Node name, IP, and location
Environmental
Standing alarms
Physical inventory and card/slot layout
Software versions
Physical layer connectivity
Circuit details including CID, type, state, condition, nodal hops, wrk/prt paths, PM stats, etc
Topology drawing per region
Provide a per market/KMA breakdown
Hi there,I'm biddin on your project "Cisco Sonet ONS 15454 Engineer"Audit, Network Engineering and Cisco

I have read your project description and i'm a Professional Engineer therefore i can do this project for you perfectly.I still have a few questions. please leave a message on my chat so we can discuss the budget and deadline of the project.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have done a similar project for a utilities company in Melbourne Australia, however not to the same quantities as your network.
I see you are using TL1 which will take me a little time to recall the ascii syntax however I estimate about 14 nodes per day on audit plus some time for documentation and topology diagrams. The proposal is only a close estimate at 1000per day + FL fees. I am currently based in Greece so would work on a similar time zone as your company. I would be happy to provide a resume of my experience.
I have a few questions around how the Sonet gear is connected.. EG TL1 Mux with TL1 gateway and snmp interface?
