10.12 Manual Circuit Routing
Although virtual SNCP segments are possible in low-order tunnels, low-order tunnels are still
considered unprotected. If you need to protect low-order circuits, use two independent low-order tunnels
that are diversely routed or use a low-order tunnel that is routed over 1+1, MS-SPRing, or a mixture of
1+1 and MS-SPRing links.
