DLP- F348 View Circuit Information

Note In node or card view, you can change the scope of the circuits that are displayed by choosing Card (in card view), Node, or Network from the Scope drop-down list in the bottom right corner of the Circuits window.

Step 2 Click the Circuits tab. The Circuits tab has the following information:

•Name—Name of the circuit. The circuit name can be manually assigned or automatically generated.

•Type—For the ONS 15600 SDH, the circuit type is STS (STS circuit).

•Size—VT circuit size is 1.5. STS circuit sizes can be 1, 3c, 6c, 9c, 12c, 24c, 48c, or 192c.

•OCHNC Wlen—(ONS 15454 dense wavelength division multiplexing [DWDM] only) For OCHNCs, the wavelength provisioned for the optical channel network connection. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Procedure Guide.

•Direction—The circuit direction, either two-way or one-way.

•OCHNC Dir—(ONS 15454 DWDM only) For OCHNCs, the direction of the optical channel network connection, either East to West or West to East. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Procedure Guide.

•Protection—The protection type; see Table 18-2.

Table 18-2	Circuit Protection Types
Protection Type		Description
1+1		The circuit is protected by a 1+1 protection group.
2F MS-SPRing		The circuit is protected by a 2-fiber MS-SPRing.
2F-PCA		The circuit is routed on a protection channel access (PCA) path on a two-fiber
		MS-SPRing. PCA circuits are unprotected.
DRI		The circuit is protected by dual-ring interconnect (DRI).
N/A		A circuit with connections on the same node is not protected.
PCA		The circuit is routed on a PCA path on both two-fiber and four-fiber MS-SPRings.
		PCA circuits are unprotected.
Protected		The circuit is protected by diverse SDH topologies, for example an MS-SPRing and
		an SNCP, or an SNCP and 1+1.
Unknown		A circuit has a source and destination on different nodes and communication is
		down between the nodes. This protection type appears if not all circuit components
		are known.
Unprot (black)		A circuit with a source and destination on different nodes is not protected.
Unprot (red)		A circuit created as a fully protected circuit is no longer protected due to a system
		change, such as removal of an MS-SPRing or 1+1 protection group.
SNCP		The circuit is protected by an SNCP.

•Status—The circuit status. Table 18-3lists the circuit statuses that can appear.
