Circuit Route Constraints for Auto Routing


Use the Circuit Route Constraints For Auto Routing page to include or exclude nodes on the automatically routed circuit path. Blue arrows show the circuit route. Green arrows indicate spans that you can add. The following table describes the Circuit Route Constraints For Auto Routing page fields and buttons.

Item

Description

Selected Node/Link

Displays the node or circuit link that is currently chosen in the graphic. All actions that are invoked will apply to this node or link.

Required Nodes/Links

Displays nodes and circuit links that are required to be included in the circuit path.

Excluded Nodes/Links

Displays nodes and circuit links that are excluded from the circuit path.

Add BLSR DRI

(ONS 15327, ONS 15454, and ONS 15600 only) Displays for bidirectional line switched rings (BLSR) dual-ring interconnect (DRI) circuits. Opens the BLSR-DRI Options dialog box, which assigns the BLSR-DRI primary and secondary nodes and ring type. The primary and secondary assignments appear in the graphic and under Required Nodes/Links.

Note     Although both primary and secondary nodes are listed, only primary nodes are actually required.

Include

Includes the node or link displayed in the Selected Node/Link field in the circuit path.

Exclude

Excludes the node or link displayed in the Selected Node/Link field from the circuit path. This button cannot exclude already designated primary or secondary BLSR-DRI nodes.

Up

Moves the node or link selected in the Required Nodes/Links column up in the circuit path.

Down

Moves the node or link selected in the Required Nodes/Links column down in the circuit path.

Remove

Removes the node or link selected in the Required Nodes/Links or Excluded Nodes/Links columns.

Back

Displays the previous Circuit Creation page. The page that appears depends on the circuit type and provisioning.

Next

Displays the next Circuit Creation page.

Cancel

Cancels circuit creation.

Help

Displays context-sensitive help.
