Step 8
Step 9
In the Circuit Source area, choose the source node, slot, port, and VC4 for the LAP. The LAP source is
where the low-order circuits are aggregated into a single VC4. The LAP destination is where the
low-order circuits originate.
From the Node drop-down list, choose the node where the LAP will originate.
a.
From the Slot drop-down list, choose the slot containing the STM-N, E3-12, DS3i-N-12, or
b.
STM1E-12 card where the LAP will originate.
Depending on the card chosen in Step b, choose the port and/or VC4 from the Port and VC4
c.
drop-down lists.

Unlocked,automaticInService—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the
Unlocked-disabled,automaticInService service state and suppresses alarms and conditions.
When the connections receive a valid signal, the service state automatically changes to
Unlocked-enabled.
Locked,maintenance—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the Locked-enabled,maintenance
service state. The maintenance state does not interrupt traffic flow; it suppresses alarms and
conditions and allows loopbacks to be performed on the circuit. Use Locked,maintenance for
circuit testing or to suppress circuit alarms temporarily. Change the administrative state to
Unlocked; Unlocked,automaticInService; or Locked,disabled when testing is complete. See the
"DLP-D230 Change a Circuit State" task on page
A low-order aggregation point automatically transitions into the Unlocked service state after
a VC12 or VC3 circuit is created.
Setting Attributes for a Low-Order Aggregation Point
LAPs cannot be routed on an SNCP ring, so the SNCP path selectors do not apply.
