19.5.2 Network View
Network view allows you to view and manage ONS 15454s that have DCC connections to the node that
you logged into and any login node groups you have selected (Figure 19-6).
Figure 19-6 Network in CTC Network View
Note Nodes with DCC connections to the login node do not appear if you checked the Disable Network
Discovery check box in the Login dialog box.
The graphic area displays a background image with colored ONS 15454 icons. A Superuser can set up
the logical network view feature, which enables each user to see the same network view.
The lines show DCC connections between the nodes (Table 19-9). DCC connections can be green
(active) or gray (fail). The lines can also be solid (circuits can be routed through this link) or dashed
(circuits cannot be routed through this link). Circuit provisioning uses active/routable links. Selecting a
node or span in the graphic area displays information about the node and span in the status area.
