Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes appropriate task
IDs. If the user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator
for assistance.
An APS group contains one protect (P) SONET port and one working (W) SONET port. The working and
protect ports can reside on the same logical channel (LC), on different LCs in the same router, or on different
routers. One APS group must be configured for each protect port and its corresponding working ports.
Use the
aps group (global)
command to enter APS group configuration mode and configure APS connections
with other SONET equipment.
