The SW SNCP protection can be configured on the OTU board that bears the GE or Any services to protect one GE or Any service. The SW SNCP protection also protects multicast downlink services.
Background Information
The configuration mode of SW SNCP described in this section can only realize the configuration of selective receiving. The dual fed function needs to be configured at the source end. Two electrical cross-connect services are independently configured to realize the function.
You can configure bidirectional services with the SW SNCP protection. To configure a bidirectional service with the SW SNCP protection, the U2000 Web LCT automatically adds two normal WDM services in the reverse direction on the basis of the unidirectional service with the SW SNCP protection.

NOTE: For the configuration principle and process of the electrical cross-connection with the SW SNCP protection, refer to Configuration Guide.
Procedure
- In the NE Explorer, choose from the function tree.
- In the Electrical Cross-Connection Configuration interface, click Create SNCP. The Create
SNCP dialog box is displayed. Select SW SNCP from the Protection Type drop-down list. Then, configure the Service Type and Direction. Refer to SNCP Service Control to enter other parameters of this protection group.
NOTE: When configuring the SNCP services, first configure the service type of the WDM interface of the OTU. For detailed configuration method, refer to Configuration Guide.
When you set Direction to Bidirectional, the U2000 Web LCT automatically creates two routes in the reverse direction.
- Click OK, and the created protection groups are displayed in the Electrical Cross-Connection Configuration tab.
