3.6.6 Creating Links

Note The layer details displayed in the link creation wizard are based on the NE selected as source of the link. For example, when you attempt to create a link from NE A to NE B, the link sizes displayed are based on the supported sizes and inventory of NE A. If the link is attempted in the reverse direction, from NE B to NE A, the link sizes displayed is based on the inventory and size support for NE B. As a result, the link sizes displayed could differ when the operation is attempted differently. Error code EID-733 is displayed in the link destination panel when the size displayed is not applicable for the destination NE.

•Protection

•Direction

Note CTM allows creation of bidirectional SONET/SDH links as well as unidirectional and bidirectional physical links.

If the layer rate is SONET/SDH or Layer 2, only bidirectional links are available. If the layer rate is OTS, OMS, OCH, or Physical, both unidirectional and bidirectional links are available.
