18. DO NOT RESET the DRI switch at node P at this time. At FT-2000 primary
node P' (P prime), execute a manual DRI switch for each path being tested.
Use the FAULT-Switch-Path-STS3-Manual command for the appropriate
line(s) and tributary(s).
19. Repeat Steps 13 through 15 for each path being tested.
20. At the FT-2000 primary node P, reset the manual DRI switch for each path
being tested. Use the FAULT-Switch-Path-STS3- Reset command for
the appropriate line(s) and tributary(s).
21. Repeat Steps 13 through 15 for each path being tested.
22. At the FT-2000 primary node P', reset the manual DRI switch for each path
being tested. Use the FAULT-Switch-Path-STS3-Reset command for the
appropriate line(s) and tributary(s).
23. Verify that there are no alarm or status conditions in the ring.
