11.2.5 Circuit Information in the Edit Circuit Window
You can edit a selected circuit using the Edit button on the Circuits window. The tabs that appear depend
on the circuit chosen:
• General—Displays general circuit information and allows you to edit the circuit name.
• Drops—Allows you to add a drop to a unidirectional circuit. For more information, see the
“11.7 Multiple Destinations for Unidirectional Circuits” section on page 11-18.
• Monitors—Displays possible monitor sources and allows you to create a monitor circuit. For more
information, see the “11.8 Monitor Circuits” section on page 11-19.
• UPSR Selectors—Allows you to change path protection selectors. For more information, see the
“11.9 Path Protection Circuits” section on page 11-19.
• UPSR Switch Counts—Allows you to change path protection switch protection paths. For more
information, see the “11.9 Path Protection Circuits” section on page 11-19.
• State—Allows you to edit cross-connect service states.
• Merge—Allows you to merge aligned circuits. For more information, see the “11.19 Merged
Circuits” section on page 11-42.
Using the Export command from the File menu, you can export data from the UPSR Selectors,
UPSR Switch Counts, State, and Merge tabs in HTML, comma-separated values (CSV), or tab-separated
values (TSV) format.
The Show Detailed Map checkbox in the Edit Circuit window updates the graphical view of the circuit
to show more detailed routing information, such as:
• Circuit direction (unidirectional/bidirectional)
• The nodes, STSs, and VTs through which a circuit passes, including slots and port numbers
• The circuit source and destination points
• Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) area IDs
• Link protection (path protection, unprotected, BLSR, 1+1) and bandwidth (OC-N)
• Provisionable patchcords between two cards on the same node or different nodes
For BLSRs, the detailed map shows the number of BLSR fibers and the BLSR ring ID. For path
protection configurations, the map shows the active and standby paths from circuit source to destination,
and it also shows the working and protect paths. Selectors appear as pentagons on the detailed circuit
map. The map indicates nodes set up as DRI nodes. For VCAT circuits, the detailed map is not available
for an entire VCAT circuit. However, you can view the detailed map to see the circuit route for each
individual member.
You can also view alarms and states on the circuit map, including:
• Alarm states of nodes on the circuit route
• Number of alarms on each node organized by severity
• Port service states on the circuit route
• Alarm state/color of most severe alarm on port
• Loopbacks
• Path trace states
• Path selector states
