Re: Moving right along ...

John,

Semi transparent STM-N signal transport is typically required to support the
following applications:

* DCN application: D1-D3, D4-D12
* MS protection application: J0, K1, K2, B2
* Other: 
  [Orderwire] E1, E2, 
  [User Channel] F1, 
  [Single-ended MSn Performance Monitoring] M0, M1 (in addition to 
					    J0, K2[6-8] and B2)
  [RSn Performance Monitoring] B1 (in addition to J0)

So M0/M1 transport is required in order to support single-ended MSn performance
monitoring.

Regards,

Maarten
