Manage Circuits
This chapter explains how to manage Cisco ONS 15454 SDH electrical, STM-N, Ethernet, and virtual
concatenated (VCAT) circuits.
Before You Begin
To create circuits, see Chapter 6, “Create Circuits and Low-Order Tunnels.”
To clear any alarm or trouble conditions, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide.
This section lists the chapter procedures (NTPs). Turn to a procedure for applicable tasks (DLPs).
1. NTP-D199 Locate and View Circuits, page 7-2—Complete as needed.
2. NTP-D200 View Cross-Connect Card Resource Usage, page 7-2—Complete as needed.
3. NTP-D287 Modify and Delete Circuits, page 7-4—Complete as needed to edit a circuit name;
change the active and standby colors of spans; change signal fail (SF), signal degrade (SD),
reversion time, and payload defect indication-path (PDI-P) settings for subnetwork connection
protection (SNCP) ring circuits; delete a circuit; or add or delete a VCAT member.
4. NTP-D288 Modify and Delete Overhead Circuits and Server Trails, page 7-4—Complete as needed
to change a tunnel type, repair an IP circuit, or delete an overhead circuit.

bidirectional circuits.
6. NTP-D329 Create a J0 Section Trace, page 7-6—Complete as needed to monitor interruptions or
changes to circuit traffic.
7. NTP-D79 Create a J1 or J2 Path Trace, page 7-8—Complete as needed to monitor interruptions or
changes to circuit traffic.
8. NTP-D332 Bridge and Roll Traffic, page 7-9—Complete as needed to reconfigure circuits.
9. NTP-D309 Reconfigure Circuits, page 7-10—Complete as needed to reconfigure circuits.
10. NTP-D310 Merge Circuits, page 7-11—Complete as needed to merge circuits.
