that the SNCP is free of major alarms or problems. If trouble is indicated (for example, a major alarm
exists), resolve the problem before proceeding. See

Count the total number of circuits on the fiber that is cut between the existing nodes. To count the number

of circuits, right click on the fiber that is cut, and click circuits.
In network view, click the Circuits tab.
Step 5
To view Partial circuits, click the Filter button and select PARTIAL from the Status drop-down list.
The Partial circuits, if any, are displayed.
To view Partial_TL1 circuits, click the Filter button and select PARTIAL_TL1 from the Status
drop-down list. The Partial_TL1 circuits, if any, are displayed.
Resolve any partial circuits (both Partial and Partial_TL1) in the network before proceeding. However,

optical rate of the trunk cards to which the new node will be connected. For example, if the adjacent
nodes have STM-16 trunk cards, the new node must have STM-16 cards installed. If the STM-N cards
are not installed or the rate does not match the rate of the adjacent node trunk cards, complete the
"NTP-D16 Install STM-N Cards and Connectors" procedure on page 2-7
Step 7 Verify that fiber is available to connect the new node to the existing nodes.
