This procedure creates a server trail, which provides a connection between
ONS nodes through a third-party network. You can create server trails
between any two STM-N or EC1 ports.

Type—Choose VC_HO_PATH_CIRCUIT or VC_LO_PATH_CIRCUIT.
Size—Depending on the type selected, choose the server trail size. For VC_HO_PATH_CIRCUIT,
choose VC4-2c, VC4-3c, VC4-4c, VC4-6c, VC4-8c, VC4-12c, VC4-16c, VC4-64c, or VC4. For
VC_LO_PATH_CIRCUIT, choose VC3, VC12, or VC11.
Protection Type—Choose one of the following protection types: Preemptible, Unprotected, or
Fully Protected. The server trail protection sets the protection type for any circuit that traverses it.
Preemptible— PCA circuits will use server trails with the Preemptible attribute.
–
Unprotected—In Unprotected Server Trail, CTC assumes that the circuits going out from that
–
specific port will not be protected by provider network and will look for a secondary path from
source to destination if you are creating a protected circuit.
