NTP-A299 Convert a Point-to-Point or Linear ADM to a Path
Protection Automatically
Note
When upgrading VT tunnels, CTC does not convert the VT tunnel to path protection, but instead creates
a secondary tunnel for the alternate path. The result is two unprotected VT tunnels using alternate paths.
Note
If overhead circuits exist on the network, this procedure is service affecting. The overhead circuits will
drop traffic and have a status of PARTIAL after the upgrade is complete.
Step 1
Complete the
“DLP-A60 Log into CTC” task on page 17-66
