NTP-A184 Create an Automatically Routed DS-3 Circuit
• Slot—Choose the slot where a DS3XM-12 card is installed.
• DS3 Mapped STS—If applicable, choose Circuit Dest to indicate that the STS is the circuit
destination, or Circuit Source to indicate that the STS is the circuit source.
Step 16 If you selected Using Required Nodes/Spans in Step 11, complete the following substeps; otherwise,
continue with Step 17:
a. Click Next.
b. In the Circuit Route Constraints area, click a node or span on the circuit map.
c. Click Include to include the node or span in the circuit. Click Exclude to exclude the node or span
from the circuit. The order in which you choose included nodes and spans determines the circuit
sequence. Click spans twice to change the circuit direction.
d. Repeat Steps b and c for each node or span you wish to include or exclude.
e. Review the circuit route. To change the circuit routing order, choose a node from the Required
Nodes/Lines or Excluded Nodes Links lists, then click the Up or Down buttons to change the circuit
routing order. Click Remove to remove a node or span.
Note If a node or span stays gray, that node or span is required.
Step 17 If you selected Review Route Before Creation in Step 11, complete the following substeps; otherwise,
continue with Step 18.
a. Click Next.
b. Review the circuit route. To add or delete a circuit span, choose a node on the circuit route. Blue
arrows show the circuit route. Green arrows indicate spans that you can add. Click a span arrowhead,
then click Include to include the span or Remove to remove the span.
c. If the provisioned circuit does not reflect the routing and configuration you want, click Back to
verify and change circuit information. If the circuit needs to be routed to a different path, see the
“NTP-A185 Create a Manually Routed DS-3 Circuit” procedure on page 6-23.
Step 18 Click Finish. One of the following actions occurs based on the circuit properties you selected:
• If you entered more than 1 in the Number of Circuits field and selected Auto-ranged, CTC
automatically creates the number of circuits entered in the Number of Circuits field. If auto-ranging
cannot complete all the circuits, for example, because sequential ports are unavailable at the source
or destination, a dialog box appears. Set the new source or destination for the remaining circuits,
then click Finish to continue auto-ranging. After completing the circuits, the Circuits window
appears.
• If you entered more than 1 in the Number of Circuits field and did not choose Auto-ranged, the
Circuit Creation dialog box appears so you can create the remaining circuits. Repeat Steps 5
through 17 for each additional circuit. After completing the circuits, the Circuits window appears.
Step 19 In the Circuits window, verify that the circuits you just created appear in the circuits list.
Step 20 Complete the “NTP-A135 Test Electrical Circuits” procedure on page 6-36. Skip this step if you built a
test circuit.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
