Circuit Source


Use the Circuit Source page to provision the overhead circuit source. Provisionable parameters include node, slot, port, and channel. Cards, ports, and channels that are fully utilized do not appear in the menu. The following table describes the Circuit Source page fields and buttons that appear for overhead circuits.

Item

Description

Node

Sets the overhead circuit source node.

Slot

Sets the slot used by the overhead circuit. The card installed in the slot determines the availability of the Port fields.

Port

Sets the port used by the circuit. The Port field is not available if the slot chosen contains a multiport card.

Channel

The Channel field is available if you chose DCC Tunnel-D1-D3 as the tunnel type. Choose one of the following:

  • DCC1 (D1-D3): Regenerator section DCC

  • DCC2 (D4-D6): Multiplex section DCC, overhead bytes D4 to D6

  • DCC3 (D7-D9): Multiplex section DCC, overhead bytes D7 to D9

  • DCC4 (D10-D12): Multiplex section DCC, overhead bytes D10 to D12
