Note This procedure requires that you create test circuits and perform span switches around the ring. For
clarity, "Node 1" refers to the login node where you begin the procedure. "Node 2" refers to the node
connected to the east OC-N trunk (span) card of Node 1, "Node 3" refers to the node connected to the
east OC-N trunk card of Node 2, and so on.
