Alcatel-Lucent 1643 AMS - Creating a Transparent DCC Cross-Connection

Creating a transparent DCC cross-connection
...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Functional description
The Transparent DCC Cross-connect performs a relay function between 2 DCC RS
channels. When provisioned those 2 DCC channels are not available for reaching the
involved NE.
This feature can be used to create a ″pass-through″ mechanism through a NE for the
following reasons:
• Non-interworking at the Network Layer (due to different N-layer
protocols/settings).
• Separation of the Network Layer routing domains.
