notes for that version of software. Also refer to the Enhanced Channel Maps User's

 
Before you create enhanced channel maps for your system, your DNCS should 
be enabled to support enhanced channel maps. Call Cisco Services to enable this 
environment. If enhanced channel maps are not enabled for your system, you 
will only be able to placed hub-based (or virtual hub-based) channel maps on the 
BFS. See Verify That Your System Is Enabled for Enhanced Channel Maps (on 
page 4) to verify that your system is enabled for Enhanced Channel Maps. 
 
You can create enhanced channel maps without associating them with hubs, but 
the DNCS environment must be enabled to support creating channel maps that 
are not associated with hubs. 
 
Creating a Channel Map 
New enhanced channel maps may be created as LUG-based or virtual-hub-based 
channel maps in the Channel Maps UI. Refer to the DNCS Online Help for 
procedures to create the new channel maps.  
After you create the new channel maps, complete the steps in this section to add the 
new channel maps to your system.
