Introduction

This document describes the vital tests to be performed for validating the new DWDM networks for Etisalat.
Test cases and procedures can be modified and enhanced according to equipment, design and features
offered.

It consists of two parts:

1) On site tests which must be performed at each site


2) Network test to be performed over the network for sample of ports and boards selected by Etisalat
representatives
