DLP- D76 Add a Member to a VCAT Circuit
Step 5 Under “Select applicable nodes,” deselect any nodes where you do not want to add the user (all network
nodes are selected by default).
Step 6 Click OK.
Step 7 In the User Creation Results dialog box, verify that the users were successfully added to the nodes
chosen in Step 5. If yes, click OK and continue with the next step. If users were not added, click OK
and repeat Steps 2 through 6.
Step 8 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
DLP-D76 Add a Member to a VCAT Circuit
Note Adding a member to a SW-LCAS VCAT circuit in the Unlocked-enabled;
Unlocked-disabled,automaticInService; or Locked-enabled,Maintenance service state could be service
affecting. Cisco recommends using the Locked-enabled,outOfGroup service state when adding new
members. You can put the member in the desired state after adding the member.
Note You cannot add members to VCAT circuits with a source or destination on an ML-Series or FC_MR-4
(line rate mode) card.
Step 1 In node or network view, click the Circuits tab.
Step 2 Click the VCAT circuit that you want to edit, then click Edit.
Step 3 Click the Members tab.
Step 4 Click Add Member. The Add Member button is enabled if the VCAT circuit has sufficient bandwidth
for an added member.
Step 5 Define the number of members and member attributes:
Purpose This task adds a member to a Software–Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme
(SW-LCAS) virtual concatenated (VCAT) circuit on FC_MR-4 (enhanced
mode) cards. Adding a member to a VCAT circuit changes the size of the
circuit. The new members use the VCAT member source, destination, and
routing preference (common fiber or split routing) specified during the
VCAT circuit creation procedure.
Tools/Equipment FC_MR-4 card (enhanced mode)
Prerequisite Procedures DLP-D60 Log into CTC, page 17-49
A SW-LCAS VCAT circuit with a source or destination on an FC_MR-4
card (enhanced mode) must exist on the network. See Chapter 6, “Create
Circuits and Low-Order Tunnels.”
