Circuit Statuses
The following table describes the circuit statuses that can appear on the Circuits tab.
 
Circuit Status
Description
CREATING
Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) is creating a circuit.
DELETING
CTC is deleting a circuit.
DISCOVERED
CTC created a circuit. All components are in place and a complete path exists from circuit source to destination.
DISCOVERED_TL1
A TL1-created circuit or a TL1-like CTC-created circuit is complete. A complete path from source to destination(s) exists.
PARTIAL
A CTC-created circuit is missing a cross-connect or network span; a complete path from source to destination(s) does not exist, or an alarm interface panel (AIP) change occurred on one of the circuit nodes and the circuit is in need of repair. (AIPs store the node MAC address.)
In CTC, circuits are represented using cross-connects and network spans. If a network span is missing from a circuit, the circuit status is PARTIAL. However, a PARTIAL status does not always mean a circuit traffic failure has occurred, because traffic might flow on a protect path.
This status does not appear for OCHNC circuit types.
PARTIAL_TL1
A TL1-created circuit or a TL1-like CTC-created circuit is missing a cross-connect or circuit span (network link), and a complete path from source to destination(s) does not exist.
This status does not appear for OCHNC circuit types.
ROLL_PENDING
The intermediate state in the process of rolling circuits. If the roll is not displaying transmission states, then they are not needed.
CONVERSION_ PENDING
The intermediate state in the process of in-service updating circuits. If the rule is not displaying transmission states, then they are not needed.
DROP_PENDING
The intermediate state in the process adding drop circuits. If the rule is not displaying transmission states, then they are not needed.
