Add Members
(ONS 15454 SDH only) Use the Add Members dialog box to select the member criteria for the added members.
 
Item
Description
Number of members to add
Sets the number of members you want to add to the VCAT circuit.
Create cross-connects only (TL1-like)
Creates one or more cross-connects to complete a signal path for TL1-generated circuits. Nodes that do not support TL1 cross-connect naming will ignore the circuit name.
State
Lists the administrative states. An administrative state puts the member cross-connects into the related service state if network conditions allow:
No Change—The circuit state will not be changed.
unlocked—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the unlocked-enabled service state.
locked,disabled—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the locked-enabled,disabled service state. Traffic is not passed on the circuit.
locked,maintenance—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the locked-enabled,maintenance service state. The locked-enabled,maintenance service state does not interrupt traffic flow; it suppresses alarms and conditions and allows loopbacks to be performed on the circuit. Use the locked,maintenance administrative state for circuit testing or to suppress circuit alarms temporarily. Change the administrative state to unlocked; unlocked,automaticInService; or locked,disabled when testing is complete.
unlocked,automaticInService—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the unlocked-disabled,automaticInService service state. Alarms and conditions are suppressed. When the connections receive a valid signal, the service state automatically changes to unlocked-enabled.
locked,outOfGroup—(VCAT circuits only) Puts the circuit cross-connects in the locked-enabled,maintenance & outOfGroup service state. The locked,outOfGroup administrative state is used to place a VCAT member circuit out of the group and to stop sending traffic. locked,outOfGroup only applies to the cross-connect on the end node where the VCAT resides.
For additional state information, see States.
