Provides an overview of the cross-connect card usage:
STS-1 Matrix: Provides the percentage of the cross-connect card STS-1 path
resources that are used.
VT Matrix Ports: Provides the percentage of the cross-connect card Virtual

VT Matrix Port Detail
|
Provides details of the VT Matrix Port usage:
Drop: Identifies the source slot, port, and STS.
Tunnel Name: If the port is used by a VT tunnel, the tunnel name appears here.
VT tunnels use VT matrix ports on the tunnel source and destination nodes, but
do not use matrix resources on pass-through nodes.
% Used: Shows the percentage of the matrix port that is used.
Usage: Shows the port usage. For example, if one STS carries seven VT1.5
circuits, the matrix port will show that 7 of 28 are used.

Refresh
|
Updates the XC resources display.
|
Delete
|
Deletes STSs that use VT matrix resources but no longer carry VT circuits. This occasionally occurs when many VT circuits are added and deleted over a period of time. Stranded STSs appear as STSs with 0% usage in the VT Matrix Port Detail area. If stranded STSs appear, click the STS, then click Delete to free up VT matrix capacity.
