Chapter 5 Create Circuits and VC Low-order Path Tunnels
To set the circuit path protection, complete one of the following:
Step 12
To route the circuit on a protected path, leave Fully Protected Path checked and continue with
•
Step
To create an unprotected circuit, uncheck Fully Protected Path and continue with
•
If you selected Fully Protected Path in
Step 13
configuration, choose 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.
If you selected Fully Protected Path in
Step 14
check the Dual Ring Interconnect check box.
If you are creating an VC high-order path circuit, skip this step and continue with

Click Next. In the Route Review and Edit area, node icons appear for you to route the circuit manually.
Step 16
Complete the
Step 17
Click Finish. If the path does not meet the specified path diversity requirement, CTC displays an error
Step 18
message and allows you to change the circuit path. If you entered more than 1 in Number of Circuits,
the Circuit Creation dialog box appears after the circuit is created for you to create the remaining
circuits. Repeat Steps
When all the circuits are created, the main Circuits window appears. Verify that the circuits you created
