Chapter 6 Create Circuits and Low-Order Tunnels
NTP- D325 Create an STM Test Circuit around the Ring
Step 7
Click Next .
Step 8 Choose the circuit source:
a.
From the Node drop-down list, choose the node where the circuit will originate.
b. From the Slot drop-down list, choose the slot containing the high-order card where the circuit
originates. (If a card’s capacity is fully utilized, it does not appear in the drop-down list.)
c.
Depending on the circuit origination card, choose the source port and/or VC-4 from the Port and
VC-4 drop-down lists. The Port drop-down list is only available if the card has multiple ports. VC-4s
are not shown if they are already in use by other circuits.
Note
The VC4s that appear depend on the card, circuit size, and protection scheme.
Step 9
Click Next .
Step 10
Choose the circuit destination:
Note
The destination port must be located on the same node as the circuit source port.
a.
From the Node drop-down list, choose the node selected in Step 8a .
b.
From the Slot drop-down list, choose the slot containing the optical card where the circuit will
terminate (destination card). (If a card’s capacity is fully utilized, the card does not appear in the
drop-down list.)
c.
Depending on the card selected in Step b , choose the destination port and/or VC-4 from the Port and
VC-4 drop-down lists. The Port drop-down list is available only if the card has multiple ports. The
VC-4s that appear depend on the card, circuit size, and protection scheme.
Step 11
Click Next .
Step 12
In the Circuit Routing Preferences area, uncheck Route Automatically .
Step 13
When routing a test circuit with source and destination ports on the same node, the Fully Protected Path
check box is automatically disabled. Choose one of the following options:
•
To leave the test circuit unprotected, continue with Step 14 .
•
To route the test circuit on a MS-SPRing protection channel, check Protection Channel Access ,
click Yes in the Warning dialog box, then continue with Step 14 .
Caution
Circuits routed on MS-SPRing protection channels are not protected and are preempted during
MS-SPRing switches.
Step 14
Click Next . In the Route Review/Edit area, node icons appear for you to route the circuit manually.
Step 15
Complete the “DLP-D98 Provision a High-Order Circuit Route” task on page 17-96 .
Step 16
Click Finish . If you entered more than 1 in the Number of Circuits field, the Circuit Creation dialog box
appears after the circuit is created so you can create the remaining circuits. Repeat Steps 6 through 15
for each additional circuit.
Step 17
When all the circuits are created, the main Circuits window appears. Verify that the circuits you created
appear in the window.
Step 18 Complete the “NTP-D62 Test High-Order Circuits” procedure on page 6-66 .
