Unprotected UPSR
Unprotected UPSR operation consists of connection based user provisioning to deselect the inherent pro-
tection path offered by UPSR configurations. To do so the user simply selects the “unprotected” option in
the connection creation or types in “unprotected” in the appropriate field in the event a TL-1 message is
being constructed for the connection.
Unprotected connections allow the network manager to create a single route for low priority traffic around
a UPSR ring. This frees up bandwidth on the normal protection path for other low priority traffic. Refer to
Figure 3-23.
