Could start looking at the AT&T/Telecordia standards for this sort of thing... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_ID http://www.centurylink.com/wholesale/systems/WebHelp/reference/circuit_id_fo... On 8/21/17 1:26 PM, Colton Conor wrote:
We are building a new fiber network, and need help creating a circuit ID format to for new fiber circuits. Is there a guide or standard for fiber circuit formats? Does the circuit ID change when say a customer upgrades for 100Mbps to 1Gbps port?
What do the larger carriers do? Any advice on creating a circuit ID format for a brand new fiber network?
Originally we ran a CLEC using a LECs copper, and our circuit ID was historically a telephone number for DSL circuits. The ILEC had a complex method for assigning circuit IDs.
I am sure anything will work as long as you keep track of it, but any advice would be great!
