OpenVcat Destinations
Use the OpenVcat Destinations page to specify one or more VCAT destinations for an open-ended VCAT circuit. An open-ended VCAT circuit can have a data card at one end and one or more unique non-data card (OC-N/STM-N) destinations at the other end (that is, the open end). This page is displayed only if you have selected the Open VCAT option in the Circuit Attributes: VC High-Order Path VCAT Circuit/Circuit Attributes: VC Low-Order Path VCAT Circuit page during circuit creation or while adding members to an already created open-ended VCAT circuit in the Add Members page.
 
Item
Description
Select Destination For
Choose the member for which you want to add an open-ended VCAT destination. This field is not displayed if you are adding only one member to the VCAT circuit.
Node
Choose the open-ended VCAT circuit destination node. For cards that support only common fiber routing, for example, ML-Series cards, the VCAT destination endpoints must be on the same port. Also, in the Add Members page, the destinations that you specify must match the port of any existing destination.
Slot
Choose the open-ended VCAT circuit destination slot.
Port
Choose the open-ended VCAT circuit destination port.
STS
Choose the open-ended VCAT circuit destination specific STS.
Use Secondary OpenVcat Destinations
If checked, displays Node, Slot, Port, STS, and VT (if applicable) fields so you can define a secondary open-ended VCAT circuit destination. You cannot define secondary destinations for ML-Series cards.
Add Destination
Adds the VCAT destination to the open-ended VCAT circuit. You must add VCAT destination for all members before you can proceed to the next page.
Auto-ranged Destinations
When checked, automatically creates sequential VCAT destinations for all members starting from the Slot, Port, and STS specified for the first member. The destinations are created on the same node as specified for the first member. This field is not displayed if you are adding only one member to the VCAT circuit.
Back
Displays the Add Members page.
Next
Displays the Circuit Source page in the Circuit Creation wizard or the Add Members page in the Add Members wizard.
Cancel
Cancels the member creation.
Help
Displays the context-sensitive help.
