Circuit Source
Use the Circuit Source page to provision the circuit origination parameters. Provisionable parameters include Node, Slot, Port, specific VC4, VC3 or TUG3, TUG2, and VC12. The Node field appears for all circuit types. Slot, Port, VC4, VC3 or TUG3, TUG2, VC12 might appear, depending on the circuit type, circuit size, the protection scheme, and the node and slot that are chosen. If a card, port, VC4, VC3 or TUG3, TUG2, or VC12 capacity is fully utilized, it does not appear in the menu.
For high-order path, low-order path, and VCAT circuits, a secondary source check box appears so you can create a secondary circuit source, for example, an SNCP bridge/selector circuit entry point in a multivendor SNCP.
The following table describes the Circuit Source page fields and buttons.

Description
|
Node
|
Sets the circuit source node.
|
Slot
|
Sets the slot used by the circuit. The card installed in the slot determines the availability of the Port, VC4, TUG3, TUG2, and VC12 fields.
|
Port
|
Sets the port used by the circuit. The Port field is available only when the slot contains a multiport card.
|
VC4
|
Sets the VC4 used by the circuit.
|
VC3/TUG3
|
Sets the VC3 or TUG3 used by low-order path circuits.
|
TUG2
|
Sets the TUG2 used by low-order path circuits.
|
VC12
|
Sets the VC12 used by the low-order path circuits.
|
Use Secondary Source
|
(VC4, VC3, and VC12 circuits only.) If checked, displays Node, Slot, Port, VC4, TUG3, TUG2, or VC12 fields so you can define a secondary circuit source.
