ABOUT CIRCUITS AND CIRCUIT TRACING

• A circuit is a single tributary path that travels through a

sequence of radios.
• For Eclipse radios, circuits are initiated and terminated on
a DAC (INU/INUe), or, for an IDU, within its ethernet/data
module.
• A circuit group is a collection of tributary paths that travel
through the same sequence of radios from the same start
point to the same end point.

CIRCUIT TRACE

• ProVision periodically captures the cross-connect

configurations from the radios.
• Circuit configuration changes to the radios will not be
recognized until a new Circuit Trace is completed.
• Circuit tracing:

Locates incorrect circuit cross-connections within the network

Views and manages changes to the network circuit configuration (such as
adding circuit capacity during network rollout).

Views the circuits to use the troubleshooting features of ProVision, such as
loopback and PRBS testing.
