Symmetrical Connection Wizard
The Cross Connections application has a Symmetrical Connection Wizard which simplifies the cross
connection configuration when the terminals are fitted with symmetrical / matching interface types.
A symmetrical connection is a connection between the local and the remote terminal where the local slot,
card type, port and connection details are identical to those of the remote terminal.
The only exception is DFXO / DFXS connections where DFXO cards are considered to match DFXS cards (as
they normally interwork).
Framed E1 / T1 CAS connections, drop-and-insert connections, and connections that do not involve entire
timeslots, are considered to be asymmetrical.
Starting the Cross Connections Wizard
When starting the connection wizard with unsaved changes, the following popup dialog should appear
Click on 'Save' if you wish to save the current configuration to a file. Clicking on 'Continue' will continue
with the wizard and overwrite any changes made when the wizard finishes.
The wizard can be cancelled at any time by clicking on the 'Cancel' button or by closing the window.
Cross Connections Wizard Navigation
Click on the Next button to progress through the connection wizard. The current stage is indicated in the
navigation bar on the left. You can jump directly to a stage by clicking on the stage required.
