2.12.6.2 ITU to ANSI SLS Conversion
The ITU to ANSI SLS Conversion enables a user to perform 4-bit ITU to 5-bit ANSI conversion. If this conversion option is configured, then the SLS is converted from 4-bit ITU to 5-bit ANSI.
If ITU 4-bit SLS is ABCD then the ANSI 5-bit SLS is calculated as D (~D) ABC.
This conversion can further be followed by ANSI 5-bit to ANSI 8-bit SLS Conversion in order to achieve more randomization for linkset or link selection during the network conversion.
