one of the following:
• Nodal Diversity Required—Ensures that the primary and alternate paths within the path protection
portions of the complete circuit path are nodally diverse.
• Nodal Diversity Desired—Specifies that node diversity is preferred, but if node diversity is not
possible, CTC creates fiber-diverse paths for the path protection portion of the complete circuit path.
• Link Diversity Only—Specifies that only fiber-diverse primary and alternate paths for path
protection portions of the complete circuit path are needed. The paths might be node-diverse, but
CTC does not check for node diversity.
