Low Order SONET/SDH components and API summary

Low Order SONET/SDH components and API summary lists the Low Order SONET/SDH OTM components along with the APIs used to make and find that component. Also indicated is whether the component is physical hardware or a logical construction.
API names for creating components start with “make” and API names for finding components already created and existing within the OTM repository start with “find.” Some API names use the convention “makeN
xxx
” or “findN
xxx.
” The “N” emphasizes the fact that the native name (also known as the native AID) is used in forming the final component name without undergoing any change or normalization.
