–
Note
For additional information about circuit service states, refer to the "Circuits and Tunnels" chapter
in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Reference Manual.
Apply to drop ports—Uncheck this box.

In the Circuit Source area, choose the node where the low-order tunnel will originate from the Node
Step 10
drop-down list. Complete the following:
From the Slot drop-down list, choose the slot containing the card where the circuit will originate.
a.
For optical circuits, choose the VC4 from the VC4 drop-down list.
b.
For electrical circuits on E3 or DS3i-N-12 cards, choose the port group from the Port Group
c.
drop-down list.
Click Next.
d.
In the Circuit Destination area, choose the node where the low-order tunnel will terminate from the Node
Step 11
drop-down list. Complete the following:
From the Slot drop-down list, choose the slot containing the card where the circuit will terminate.
a.
For optical circuits, choose the VC4 from the VC4 drop-down list.
b.
For electrical circuits on E3 or DS3i-N-12 cards, choose the port group from the Port Group
c.
drop-down list.
Click Next.
d.
In the Circuit Routing Preferences area, choose Route Automatically. Two options are available; choose

6-48
Unlocked—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the Unlocked-enabled service state.
Locked,disabled—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the Locked-enabled,disabled service state.
Traffic is not passed on the circuit.
Unlocked,automaticInService—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the
Unlocked-disabled,automaticInService service state and suppresses alarms and conditions.
When the connections receive a valid signal, the service state automatically changes to
Unlocked-enabled.
Locked,maintenance—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the Locked-enabled,maintenance
service state. The maintenance state does not interrupt traffic flow; it suppresses alarms and
conditions and allows loopbacks to be performed on the circuit. Use Locked,maintenance for
circuit testing or to suppress circuit alarms temporarily. Change the administrative state to
Unlocked; Unlocked,automaticInService; or Locked,disabled when testing is complete. See the
"DLP-D230 Change a Circuit State" task on page
A low-order tunnel automatically transitions into the Unlocked service state after a VC12 or
VC3 circuit is created.
