Circuit Destination


Use the Circuit Destination page to provision the circuit destination. Provisionable parameters include Node, Slot, Port, STS, VT, and DS1. The Node field appears for all circuit types. Slot, Port, specific synchronous transport signal (STS), virtual tributary (VT), and DS1 might appear, depending on the ONS node, circuit type, circuit size, the protection scheme, and the node and slot that are chosen. If a card, port, STS, or VT capacity is fully utilized, it does not appear in the menu.

For STS, STS-V, VT, and VT-V circuits, a secondary destination check box appears so you can create a secondary destination, for example, a unidirectional path switched ring (UPSR) bridge/selector circuit destination point in a multivendor UPSR.

The following table describes the Circuit Destination page fields and buttons.

Item

Description

Node

Sets the circuit destination node.

Slot

Sets the slot used by the circuit. The card installed in the slot determines the availability of the Port, STS, VT, and DS1 fields.

Port

Sets the port used by the circuit. The Port field only appears if the slot chosen contains a multiport card.

STS

Sets the STS used by the circuit.

VT

Sets the VT used by VT circuits.

DS1

Sets the DS-1 used by VT circuits.

Use Secondary Destination

(STS, STS-V, VT, and VT-V circuits only) If checked, displays Node, Slot, Port, STS, and VT fields so you can define a secondary circuit destination.

Back

Displays the previous Circuits Creation wizard page. The page that appears depends on the circuit type.

Next

Displays the next Circuit Destination page.

Cancel

Cancels circuit creation.

Help

Displays context-sensitive help.
