Security Level
You can create low-order aggregation points for circuits in MS-SPRing or 1+1 protection, or for
Note
unprotected circuits. You cannot create them for SNCP ring circuits.
The maximum number of LAPs that you can create depends on the node protection topology and the
Note
number of low-order circuits that terminate on the node. Assuming that no other low-order circuits
terminate at the node, the maximum number of LAPs that you can terminate at one node is 8 for 1+1 and
12 for MS-SPRing protection.

Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide, R7.0
6-50
This procedure creates a low-order aggregation point (LAP). LAPs allow
multiple VC3 or VC12 low-order circuits to be aggregated on a single VC4
circuit. LAPs allow multiple low-order circuits to pass through
cross-connect cards without utilizing resources on the cross-connect card
low-order matrix.

Name—Assign a name to the low-order aggregation point. The name can be alphanumeric and up
to 48 characters (including spaces). Circuit names should be 44 characters or less if you want the
ability to create monitor circuits. If you leave the field blank, CTC assigns a default name to the
LAP.
Size—Defaults to VC4. You cannot change the value.
Bidirectional—Defaults to Bidirectional. You cannot change the value.
State—Choose the administrative state to apply to all of the cross-connects in a circuit:
Unlocked—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the Unlocked-enabled service state.
–
Locked,disabled—Puts the circuit cross-connects in the Locked-enabled,disabled service state.
–
Traffic is not passed on the circuit.
