7.2.5 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
“7.5 Multiple Destinations for Unidirectional Circuits” section on page 7-13.
•
UPSR Selectors—Allows you to change UPSR selectors. For more information, see the “7.6 Path
Protection Circuits” section on page 7-13.
•
UPSR Switch Counts—Allows you to change path protection switch paths. For more information,
see the “7.6 Path Protection Circuits” section on page 7-13.
•
State—Allows you to edit cross-connect service states.
•
Merge—Allows you to merge aligned circuits. For more information, see the “7.14 Merged
Circuits” section on page 7-26.
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 or bidirectional)
•
The nodes and STSs that the circuit traverses, 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)
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.
Alarms and states can also be viewed on the circuit map, including:
•
Alarm states of nodes on the circuit route
Protected The circuit is protected by diverse SONET topologies, for example a BLSR and a
path protection, or a path protection 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 a BLSR or 1+1 protection group.
Path Protection The circuit is protected by a path protection.
