NOTE
:
If a pass-through is missing, alarms may not appear. If three twoway cross-
connects exist, alarms may not appear (if traffic is currently routed in the
other direction). Check each timeslot to verify two cross-connects exist and
that the remainder are pass-throughs. See Figure 8-4.
Cross-Connect Procedure
1. Use Office Records or fill in Table 8-2 (for DS1 service) and enter cross-
connections.

ther information.

ent-crs-vt1:m-1-1-1,m-1-1-1:cct=twoway:y;
3. Enter a DS3 pass-through as follows:
ent-crs-sts1:m-1,m-1:cct=twoway:y;
NOTE
