Then, at the time of route search, the route creation program searches for a route from the lower communication facility installation location side identified by the comparison determination program toward the upper communication facility installation location side having more connected lines, and the route is selected on the screen. It is also possible to display virtual route candidates between the plurality of communication facility installation locations A and B, and to display line candidates for each of the virtual routes. For this reason, the time required for the search at the time of circuit creation can be significantly reduced.

Next, a method of configuring a line by a computer according to the first embodiment will be described based on the operation of the system for configuring a line by the computer. In the line configuration method using a computer according to the present embodiment, first, a button of “search and input of automatic line configuration (draft)” is selected from the menu screen of the display device 5 (FIG. 11).
), And displays an "automatic line configuration (draft) search / input screen" (see FIG. 12). This "automatic circuit configuration (draft) search and
The “input screen” corresponds to a business location plan. Next, "automatic line configuration (automatic) (A)" is selected from "display (V)" in the "automatic line configuration (draft) search / input screen" (see FIG. 13).

When "line automatic configuration (automatic) (A)" is selected, a screen for designating a target installation location is displayed on a part of the screen (see FIG. 14). Therefore, in the "Automatic circuit configuration (draft) search / input screen (business office layout)", the starting point A and the ending point B (see FIG. 15), which are two desired installation locations,
Is specified (see S10 in FIG. 2). If necessary, a desired relay station is designated in addition to the start point A and the end point B (S1 in FIG. 2).
1). As a result, the route information of the automatic search condition is specified.

Next, a "line model list" is displayed on a part of the screen.
Is displayed (see FIG. 16), and from this “line model list”, the line type (line thickness) of the vacant line candidate, the power condition (which of the redundant power sources to use, ie, 1 system or 2 system) System or not specified), line classification (whether the highest-order transmission path is microwireless, optical fiber, or mixed), and the use date are selected or specified (S12 in FIG. 2). reference). As a result, the line information of the automatic search condition is specified.

When each line condition is selected or specified,
The search button of the automatic search condition is clicked (see FIG. 17), and the route is searched. At this time, a line connecting the two designated installation locations A and B is displayed on the screen (see FIG. 18). By the way, when searching for this route, which of the installation locations A and B specified on the "automatic circuit configuration (draft) search / input screen (business office layout)" by the comparison and discrimination program is the upper side having more connection lines. At the installation location, a comparison is made to determine which is the lower installation location with fewer connection lines, the installation location corresponding to the lower installation location with fewer connection lines is specified, and the installation location ( For example, B) is determined (see S13 in FIG. 2).

As shown, when "list display" of "display (V)" on the screen is selected, the installation locations A and B are displayed on the screen.
A "route list" (a candidate virtual route) is displayed (see S14 in FIGS. 20 and 2). For this reason, the central processing unit 2 specifies the installation location B, which is a lower station, as a search start point of the route, and searches and extracts a route from the B station toward the A station, which is an upper station. Since the line has a configuration extending radially from the upper station to the lower station, the lower station B has a limited selection of the route compared to the upper station A, so that the route can be searched in a shorter time. The extraction is performed, and the time required for the search is reduced at the time of the search (see the test result in FIG. 36).

At the time of comparison and sorting of the lower-side installation locations, if there is no difference between the upper and lower locations due to the number of connection lines among the specified installation locations A and B and they are the same, the installation location specified first (for example, A) Is set as an installation location serving as a starting point at the time of search (see S13 'in FIG. 2).

As shown in FIG. 20, when a "path list" (virtual path candidates) between the installation locations A and B is displayed on the screen, a desired list is displayed from the candidate list as shown in FIG. A route is selected (see S16 in FIG. 2). When the desired route is selected, as shown in FIG. 22, the route and the highest transmission line of the line are displayed in the office layout on the screen (FIG. 2).
26, and when "selection of selected data (K)" of "edit (E)" is selected from the menu on the screen shown in FIG. 26, registration and storage are performed (S18 in FIG. 2,
See S19).

When a desired route is selected on the "route list" screen shown in FIG. 21 (see S14 in FIG. 2), conditions for further narrowing down some of the displayed candidates are given. (See S15 in FIG. 2). For example, for the “path list” shown in FIG. 21, when the line conditions of the vacant line candidates are set from the “line model list” and the highest transmission path is mixed (see S12 and FIG. 16 in FIG. 2), “ At the "route list" stage, it is possible to set line conditions such as the highest transmission line.

That is, before selecting a desired route in the “route list” shown in FIG. 21, as shown in FIG. 23, if a line drawn between the installation locations A and B in the office layout diagram is clicked, A menu is displayed (see FIG. 24). When "line" of "display of highest transmission path" is selected from this menu, "list of highest transmission paths" is displayed as shown in FIG. I have. The highest transmission line of the desired route can be selected from the "list of highest transmission lines". As described above, at the stage of the "route list" shown in FIG. 21, the following line conditions (1) to (7) can be selected or designated (S15 in FIG. 2).
