The card features two virtual packet over SONET (POS) ports with a maximum combined bandwidth of
STS-48. The ports function in a manner similar to OC-N card ports, and each port carries an STS circuit
with a size of STS-1, STS-3c, STS-6c, STS-9c, STS-12c, or STS-24c. To configure an ML-Series card
SONET STS circuit, refer to the "Create Circuits and VT Tunnels" chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454
Procedure Guide.
The ML-Series POS ports supports virtual concatenation (VCAT) of SONET circuits and a software link
capacity adjustment scheme (SW-LCAS). The ML-Series cards support a maximum of two VCAT
groups with each group corresponding to one of the POS ports. Each VCAT group must be provisioned
with two circuit members. An ML-Series card supports STS-1c-2v, STS-3c-2v and STS-12c-2v. To
configure an ML-Series-card SONET VCAT circuit, refer to the "Create Circuits and VT Tunnels"
chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide.
