ONS 15327 Circuit Options
Description
The circuit source is where the circuit enters the ONS 15327 network.
The circuit destination is where the circuit exits an ONS 15327 network.
CTC routes the circuit automatically on the shortest available path based on routing
parameters and bandwidth availability.
Manual routing allows you to choose a specific path, not just the shortest path chosen
by automatic routing. You can choose a specific STS or VT for each circuit segment
and create circuits from work orders prepared by an operations support system (OSS)
like the Telcordia TIRKS system.
VT tunnels allow VT1.5 circuits to pass through an ONS 15327 without utilizing
cross-connect resources. VT circuits using VT tunnels will use cross-connect
capacity only at the source and destination nodes. One VT tunnel can carry 28 VT1.5
circuits.
VT aggregation points (VAPs) allow VT circuits to be aggregated into an STS to
reduce VT matrix resource utilization. The STS grooming end of the VAP requires an
OC-N card.
