Circuits and Tunnels
Note
The terms "Unidirectional Path Switched Ring" and "UPSR" may appear in Cisco literature. These terms
do not refer to using Cisco ONS 15xxx products in a unidirectional path switched ring configuration.
Rather, these terms, as well as "Path Protected Mesh Network" and "PPMN," refer generally to Cisco's
path protection feature, which may be used in any topological network configuration. Cisco does not
recommend using its path protection feature in any particular topological network configuration.
This chapter explains Cisco ONS 15454 synchronous transport signal (STS), virtual tributary (VT), and
virtual concatenated (VCAT) circuits and VT, data communications channel (DCC), and IP-encapsulated
tunnels. To provision circuits and tunnels, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide.
