Manage Circuits
Note
The terms “Unidirectional Path Switched Ring” and “UPSR” may appear in Cisco literature. These terms
do not refer to using Cisco ONS 15xxx products in a unidirectional path switched ring configuration.
Rather, these terms, as well as “Path Protected Mesh Network” and “PPMN,” refer generally to Cisco’s
path protection feature, which may be used in any topological network configuration. Cisco does not
recommend using its path protection feature in any particular topological network configuration.
This chapter explains how to manage Cisco ONS 15454 electrical, optical (OC-N), Ethernet, and virtual
concatenated (VCAT) circuits.
Before You Begin
To create circuits, see
Chapter 6, “Create Circuits and VT Tunnels.”
To clear any alarm or trouble conditions, refer to the
Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide
.
This section lists the chapter procedures (NTPs). Turn to a procedure for applicable tasks (DLPs).
