TCA003: Configure unprotected STS-3c trail over OC-48 interface.<br />

Purpose:<br />

To confirm support <strong>for</strong> STS-3c concatenation.<br />

<strong>Test</strong> method:<br />

1. Start off with Configuration A, with no trails configured.<br />

2. Use SONET/SDH tester to generate bulk-filled STS-3c within an OC-48 and connect to<br />

tribs: PAR#8 and LA#8.<br />

3. Use network management system to configure STS-3c trail between PAR#8 and LA#8.<br />

4. Confirm, using switch management system, the creation of the required trail.<br />

5. Confirm, using SONET/SDH testers, error free operation of the created trail.<br />

Expected result:<br />

• SONET/SDH testers report error free transmission.<br />

• Switch management reports no alarms or warning.<br />

• Trail is routed by the obvious one hop route between LA and Paris.<br />

• The management system should clearly display the following;<br />

Current route and status.<br />

Available resources.<br />
