Manage Circuits



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.

Security Level

Retrieve or higher



Step 1 Complete the "DLP-A60 Log into CTC" task on page 17-68 at the node where you want to view the cross-connect card resource usage. If you are already logged in, continue with Step 2.

Step 2 Click the Maintenance > Cross-Connect > Resource Usage tabs.

Step 3 In the Summary area of the Resources Usage tab, view the following information:

STS-1 Matrix—Provides the percent of cross-connect card STS-1 path resources that are in use. 288 STS-1 paths are available for XCVT cards; 1152 STS-1 paths are available for XC10G and XC-VXC-10G cards.

VT Matrix Ports—Provides the percent of cross-connect card VT matrix ports that are in use. Each port is one STS in size, and each can transport 28 VT1.5s or 21 VT2s. 24 VT matrix ports are available for the XCVT and XC10G cards. 96 VT matrix ports are available for the XC-VXC-10G cards.

VT Matrix—Provides the percent of VT matrix resources that are in use. 672 are available for the XCVT and XC10G cards. (672 is the number of VT matrix ports [24] multiplied by the number of VT1.5s in an STS [28].) The VT matrix on the XC-VXC-10G has capacity for 2688 VT1.5 terminations (1344 VT1.5 bidirectional circuits) or 2016 VT2 terminations (1008 VT2 bidirectional circuits).

Step 4 In the VT Matrix Port Detail section, you can view details of the VT Matrix Port usage:

Drop—Identifies the source slot, port, and STS.

Tunnel Name—Displays the tunnel name if the port is used by a VT tunnel. VT tunnels use VT matrix ports on the tunnel source and destination nodes. (VT tunnels do not use matrix resources on pass-through nodes.)

% Used—Shows the percent of the matrix port that are in use. For example, each matrix port can carry 28 VT1.5s; if one STS carries seven VT1.5 circuits, the matrix port will be 25 percent used.

Usage—Shows the port usage. For example, if one STS carries seven VT1.5 circuits, the matrix port will show that 7 of 28 VT1.5 circuits are in use.

Step 5 As needed, you can perform the following actions:

Click the Refresh button to see an updated XC Resources view. For example, if other users create circuits while you view the XC Resources tab, click Refresh to see the effects those circuits have on the VT matrix usage.

Click the Delete button to delete STSs that use VT matrix resources but no longer carry VT circuits. This occasionally occurs when many VT circuits are added and deleted over a period of time. Stranded STSs appear as STSs with 0 percent usage in the VT Matrix Port Detail area. If stranded STSs appear, click the STS, then click Delete to free VT matrix capacity.


Note The Delete button requires a Superuser security level.



Note VT tunnels might appear as STSs with 0 percent capacity used. These cannot be deleted.
