NTP-B192 Create a Circuit for an E-Series Card in Port-Mapped Mode
Click the Circuits tab and click Create.
Step 5
In the Create Circuits dialog box, complete the following fields:
Step 6
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—Choose STS.
•
Size—Choose the circuit size. Valid circuit sizes for an E-Series circuit in port-mapped mode are
•
STS-1, STS-3c, STS6c, STS-9c, and STS-12c.
Bidirectional—Leave the default unchanged (checked).
•
Number of circuits—Leave the default unchanged (1).
•
State—Choose a service state to apply to the circuit:
•
–
–
–
–
Apply to drop ports—Select this checkbox if you want to apply the state chosen in the State field
•
(IS or OOS-MT only) to the Ethernet circuit source and destination ports. You cannot apply
OOS-AINS to E-Series Ethernet card ports. CTC will apply the circuit state to the ports only if the
circuit bandwidth is the same as the port bandwidth or, if the port bandwidth is larger than the
circuit, the circuit must be the first circuit to use the drop port. If not, a Warning dialog box displays
the ports where the circuit state could not be applied. If the check box is unchecked, CTC will not
change the state of the source and destination ports.
Note
• Create cross-connects only (TL1-like)—Uncheck this check box.
• Inter-domain (UCP) SLA—If the circuit will travel on a unified control plane (UCP) channel, enter
the service level agreement number. Otherwise, leave the field set to zero.
Auto-ranged—Unavailable.
•
Protected Drops—Leave the default unchanged (unchecked).
•
If the circuit will be routed on a path protection, complete the
Step 7
Selectors During Circuit Creation" task on page
Click Next.
Step 8
Provision the circuit source:
Step 9
From the Node drop-down menu choose the circuit source node. Either end node can be the
a.
point-to-point circuit source.
From the Slot drop-down menu choose the slot containing the E-Series card that you will use for
b.
one end of the point-to-point circuit.

IS—The circuit is in service.
OOS—The circuit is out of service. Traffic is not passed on the circuit.
OOS-AINS—The circuit is out of service until it receives a valid signal, at which time the
circuit state automatically changes to in service (IS).
OOS-MT—The circuit is in a maintenance state. The maintenance state does not interrupt traffic
flow; it suppresses alarms and conditions and permits loopbacks on the circuit. Use OOS-MT
for circuit testing or to suppress circuit alarms temporarily. Change the state to IS, OOS, or
OOS-AINS when testing is complete. See the
page 8-8.
LOS alarms appear if in service (IS) ports are not receiving signals.
