Step 8
In the Circuit Source area, choose the source node, slot, port, and STS for the VAP. The VAP source is
where the DS-1 (VT1.5) circuits will be aggregated into a single STS. The VAP destination is where the
DS-1 circuits originate.
From the Node drop-down menu choose the node where the VAP will originate.
