This procedure creates a manually routed VCAT circuit. For more
information about VCAT circuits, refer to the "Circuits and Tunnels"
chapter of the Cisco ONS 15310-MA SDH Reference Manual.
ML-100T-8, CE-MR-6, or CE-100T-8 cards must be installed at the nodes
used in the VCAT circuit. For information about the ML-100T-8,
CE-MR-6, and CE-100T-8 cards, refer to the Cisco ONS 15310-CL and
Cisco ONS 15310-MA SDH Ethernet Card Software Feature and
Configuration Guide.

Name—Assign a name to the circuit. The name can be alphanumeric and up to 48 characters
(including spaces). Circuit names should be 44 characters or less if you want the ability to create
monitor circuits. If you leave the field blank, CTC assigns a default name to the circuit.
Type—Displays the circuit type you chose in
Bidirectional—Checked is the default. You cannot change it.
Create cross-connects only (TL1-like)—Check this box if you want to create one or more
cross-connects to complete a signal path for TL1-generated circuits.
State—Choose the administrative state to apply to all of the member cross-connects in a VCAT
circuit:
unlocked—Puts the member cross-connects in the unlocked-enabled service state.
