Redundancy - If the line module has redundancy midplane options available, the redundancy
drop-down box will appear. You must order two or more line modules for the redundancy options
to appear. Choose the amount of redundancy you need for the configuration. Also, choose ONLY
the amount of 'Active' modules needed for configuration. The tool will automatically add any
additional modules, as well as the redundancy midplane directly to the configuration.
Adapter Link - If the line module has multiple adapter options available, the 'Adapters' link
will appear. Click on the 'Adapters' link. A new box will appear on the right hand side of the
configurator. Click 'Add New Adapter'. A drop down box will appear with the valid adapter options
available. You must choose the same number of adapters as line modules, otherwise an error will
appear. You must enter a quantity, and then click 'Enter'. Your choices will appear on the left
hand side under the line module.
LTU Link - If the line module has LTU (License To Use) options available, the 'LTUs' link will
appear. Click on the 'LTU's' link. A new box will appear on the right hand side of the configurator.
Click on 'Add new LTU'. A drop down box will appear with the valid LTU options available. You
must choose the same number of LTUs as line modules, otherwise an error will appear. Again,
you must enter a quantity, and then click 'Enter'. Your choice(s) will appear on the left hand side
