This procedure creates an automatically routed low-order VC11 circuit,
which means that CTC chooses the circuit route based on the parameters
you specify and on the software version.
The following cards must be installed at the circuit source and destination
nodes: XC-VXC-10G and optical cards (STM-N or MRC-12).

"DLP-D60 Log into CTC" task on page 17-49
On the shelf graphic, verify that XC-VXC-10G cross-connect cards are installed in Slots 8 and 10.
Click the Provisioning > Cross-Connect tabs and set the Low Order Payload Type to VC-11 or
VC-11 and VC-12 (Mixed Mode).
"DLP-D314 Assign a Name to a Port" task on page
Circuit Type—Choose VC_LO_PATH_CIRCUIT.
Number of Circuits—Enter the number of VC-11 circuits that you want to create. The default is 1.
If you are creating multiple circuits with the same slot and consecutive port numbers, you can use
Auto-ranged to create the circuits automatically.
Auto-ranged—This check box is automatically selected if you enter more than 1 in the Number of
Circuits field. Auto-ranging creates identical (same source and destination), sequential circuits
automatically. Uncheck the box if you do not want CTC to create sequential circuits automatically.
(Figure 6-1 on page
Name—Assign a name to the circuit. The name can be alphanumeric and up to 48 characters,
(including spaces). Circuit names should be 44 characters or less if you want the ability to create
monitor circuits. If you leave the field blank, CTC assigns a default name to the circuit.
Size—Choose VC11.
Bidirectional—Leave checked for this circuit (default).
