DLP-A416 View Circuit Information
Step 5 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
DLP-A416 View Circuit Information
Step 1 Navigate to the appropriate Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) view:
• To view circuits for an entire network, from the View menu, choose Go to Network View.
• To view circuits that originate, terminate, or pass through a specific node, from the View menu,
choose Go to Other Node, then choose the node you want to search and click OK.
• To view circuits that originate, terminate, or pass through a specific card, in node view, double-click
the card containing the circuits you want to view.
Note In node or card view, you can change the scope of the circuits that appear by choosing Card
(in card view), Node, or Network from the Scope drop-down list in the bottom right corner
of the Circuits window.
Step 2 Click the Circuits tab. The Circuits tab shows the following information:
• Name—Name of the circuit. The circuit name can be manually assigned or automatically generated.
• Type—Circuit types are STS (STS circuit), VT (VT circuit), VTT (VT tunnel), VAP (VT
aggregation point), OCHNC (dense wavelength division multiplexing [DWDM] optical channel
network connection), STS-v (STS virtual concatenated [VCAT] circuit), and VT-v (VT VCAT
circuit).
• Size—Circuit size. VT circuit size is 1.5. STS circuit sizes are 1, 3c, 6c, 9c, 12c,18c, 24c, 36c, 48c,
and 192c. OCHNC circuit sizes are Equipped not specific, Multi-rate, 2.5 Gbps No FEC (forward
error correction), 2.5 Gbps FEC, 10 Gbps No FEC, and 10 Gbps FEC (DWDM only; refer to the
Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations Guide). VCAT circuit sizes are VT1.5-nv,
STS-1-nv, STS-3c-nv, and STS-12c-nv, where n is the number of members.
• OCHNC Wlen—For OCHNCs, the wavelength provisioned for the optical channel network
connection. (DWDM only; refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations
Guide.)
• Direction—The circuit direction, either two-way or one-way.
• OCHNC Dir—The direction of the OCHNC, either East to West or West to East. (DWDM only; refer
to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Installation and Operations Guide.)
• Protection—The type of circuit protection. See Table 21-1 for a list of protection types.
Purpose This task enables you to view information about circuits, such as name,
type, size, and direction.
