Item

Description

Select Monitor Source

Lists circuit spans that you can choose as the monitor circuit source.

Show Detailed Map

If checked, changes the circuit view in the graphic area to show circuit routing information including source slot, port, and VC. The detailed view also shows working and protect circuit paths.

Show VC LO Topology

If checked, displays any low-order path tunnels that carry the low-order path circuit. If the circuit is not carried by a low-order path tunnel, no changes appear when the box is checked.

Show WDM Topology

If checked, hides the TXP and MXP connections on which high-order and low-order circuits are routed, showing only the logical STM-N links. This check box is available only when circuits are routed on TXP or MXP cards provisioned in section or line mode.

Create Monitor Circuit

Displays the Circuit Destination pane of the Create Circuit wizard, which allows you to choose the monitor circuit destination for the circuit span chosen as the monitor source.

Help

Displays CTC context-sensitive help.
