Provision STS-1 Path Trace
1.
NOTE:
This procedure is used to provision the transmit and receive path trace
fields of an STS cross-connected STS-1 signal. Path trace is only
applicable to STS paths terminating to a BBG4B DS3 circuit pack
because it is an STS-1 terminating device. This procedure can be
performed from any network element in a DDM-2000 OC-3 or OC-12
network. See the "Commands and Reports" section of this User/Service
Manual for additional information on the set-trace-sts1 and
rtrv-trace-sts1 commands.
If required, condition the CIT and connect it to the local DDM-2000 network
element.
Reference: DLP-521
2. From office records, determine which DDM-2000 OC-3 or OC-12 network
elements are the source and destination terminating network elements for the
STS-1 path(s) to be traced.
3.
NOTE:
When performing this test, one DDM-2000 terminating shelf will be
referred to as the near end and the other terminating shelf as the far end.
These designations are arbitrary; either shelf can be the near end or far
end.
Establish a login to the near-end terminating shelf.
4. Use the command rtrv-crs-sts1 to determine the address of the STS-1
drop at each terminating location.
5.
NOTE:
The path trace string may be up to 62 characters long. The transmit (
trc
)
and receive (
exptrc
) strings should be different within the same location;
however, the
exptrc
from one location must identically match the
trc
at the
other location.
