Chapter 6 Create Circuits and VT Tunnels
NTP-A147 Create a G-Series STS Circuit
Step 8 At the source node, connect an Ethernet test set to the source port and configure the test set to send and
receive the appropriate Ethernet traffic.
Step 9 Transmit Ethernet frames between both test sets. If you cannot transmit and receive Ethernet traffic
between the nodes, repeat Steps 1 through 8 to make sure you configured the Ethernet ports and test set
correctly.
Step 10 Perform protection switch testing appropriate to the SONET topology:
• For path protection configurations, see the “DLP-A94 Path Protection Switching Test” task on
page 17-95.
• For BLSRs see the “DLP-A91 BLSR Switch Test” task on page 17-87.
Configure your test set according to local site practice. For information about configuring your test set,
see your test set user guide.
Step 11 After the Ethernet test is complete, print the results or save them to a disk for future reference. For
information about printing or saving test results, see your test set user guide.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
NTP-A147 Create a G-Series STS Circuit
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-A60 Log into CTC” task on page 17-66 at the node where you will create the circuit.
If you are already logged in, continue with Step 4.
Step 2 If you want to enable the G-Series Ethernet ports, complete the “DLP-A222 Provision G-Series Ethernet
Ports” task on page 19-16. (You may provision Ethernet ports before or after the STS circuit is created.)
Step 3 If you want to change the default flow control settings, complete the “DLP-A421 Provision G-Series
Flow Control Watermarks” task on page 21-7.
Step 4 From the View menu, choose Go to Network View.
Step 5 Click the Circuits tab and click Create.
Step 6 In the Create Circuits dialog box, complete the following fields:
• Circuit Type—Choose STS.
• Number of Circuits—Leave the default unchanged (1).
• Auto-ranged—Unavailable.
Step 7 Click Next.
Purpose This procedure creates a G-Series circuit.
Tools/Equipment A G-Series Ethernet card must be installed at one end of the circuit.
