• OCHNC Direction—Choose the OCHNC direction, either East to West or West to East. If you
choose West to East, the channel will exit the node through the LINE-TX port of the OSC-CSM-E
or OPT-BST-E, named the East Side Card by Cisco MetroPlanner (typically these cards are hosted
by Slot 17). If you choose East to West, the channel will exit the node through the LINE-TX port of
the OSC-CSM-W or OPT-BST-W, named the West Side Card by Cisco MetroPlanner (typically
these cards are hosted by Slot 1).
•
Bidirectional—Check this check box to create a bidirectional OCHNC; uncheck it to create a
