Create circuits from Topology View menu

Creating circuit from Topology View is supported under Network View (Nodes) tab.

There are four scenario of creating circuits from Topology View namely,

• Creating circuits on Source and Destination nodes present in same partition.
• Creating circuits on Source and Destination nodes present in different partition.
• Creating circuits on multiple nodes.
• Creating circuits from selected circuits.

NOTE: Creating circuits on Source and Destination nodes present in different partition and Creating circuits on multiple nodes are not supported for this release.

Creating circuits between Nodes in same Partition

Perform the following steps to create a circuit between source and destination nodes present in same partition:

1. Go to Topology menu and click Topology View option. Topology View page tab is displayed.
2. Click Network View (Nodes) tab and select the desired partition.
3. Select the desired option from the following:
   • To create circuit by selecting source and destination node: Select a source and a destination node using CTRL+ click option and click and select option Create Circuit From Source and Destination. Select the capacity of the circuit in Select Capacity window and click OK. Go to step 4.
   • To create circuit from selected circuits: Click and select option Create Circuit From Selected Circuit(s). The Manage Circuits page is displayed in a separate tab. Select the desired circuits, right click on one of the selected circuit and click on Create Circuit using Selected Circuits. Go to step 4.
4. Create circuit from Topologyview is displayed in a new browser window with IPs of selected nodes under Source and Destination Information.

   

5. For further steps, refer to the procedure Create circuits from Topology View.

Creating circuits between Nodes in different Partition

Perform the following steps to create a circuit between source and destination nodes present in different partitions:

1. Go to Topology menu and click Topology View option. Topology View window is displayed.
2. Click Network View (Nodes) tab and do one of the following:
   • Go to a partition and select the desired node (source). Select another partition from the drop down list, hold CTRL button and select desired node (destination). Click and select Create Circuit by selecting source and destination node from the drop-down. Select the circuit capacity from the Select Capacity window and click OK. Create circuit from Topologyview is displayed in a new browser window with IPs of selected nodes under Source and Destination Information. Or,
   • On left hand pane, select the two partitions (where desired nodes are present) using CTRL button, right click and select Create Circuit using selected Partition(s). Create circuit from Topologyview is displayed in a new browser window. The Source and Destination Information will display the IPs of only those nodes which are present under the selected partition in drop down list.
3. For further steps, refer to the procedure Create circuits from Topology View.
