DLP- F348 View Circuit Information
On the network graphic, an F appears on the working MS-SPRing channel where you invoked the
protection switch. The span lines change color to reflect the forced traffic. Green span lines indicate the
new MS-SPRing path, and the lines between the protection switch are purple.
Performing a Force switch generates several conditions including FORCED-REQ-RING and WKSWPR.
Step 5 To apply a Force switch to the east line:
a. Right-click the east MS-SPRing port and choose Set East Protection Operation.
Note If node icons overlap, drag and drop the icons to a new location or return to network view
and change the positions of the network node icons. MS-SPRing node icons are based on the
network view node icon positions.
Note For two-fiber MS-SPRings, the squares on the node icons represent the MS-SPRing working
and protect channels. You can right-click either channel.
b. In the Set East Protection Operation dialog box, choose FORCE RING from the drop-down list.
Click OK.
c. Click Yes in the two Confirm MS-SPRing Operation dialog boxes that appear.
