state. The user may change options on the connection by selecting Configure. Access to the
Configure screen can also be obtained from the previous Connection List screen via the
Configure selection button found there.

be taken down by changing the Administrative State to Locked using the button at the top
right corner of the window and then selecting Apply. Similarly, the leaf endpoint can be
locked using the feature at the bottom left of the screen.
43. Either or both ends of the connection can be configured as OAM cell segment endpoints by
selecting the Segment Endpoint box displayed at each section of the screen. This
functionality can be used for maintenance or troubleshooting purposes. Select Apply to
send configuration changes to the database or close to abort any changes.
44. The “Configuration Change Completed” window appears. Select OK.
45. Leaves may be added to the connection using the Add Leaf button at the bottom of the
