External faults (e.g., fiber cuts, connector issues) should be ruled out before investigating internal equipment faults.
Broader network-level checks (e.g., path continuity, OLP status) come before per-device NE diagnostics.
Isolate faults on individual wavelengths before examining the aggregated multi-wavelength transport.
