Abstract
An operational support system (OSS) which provisions a virtual circuit automatically potentially without requiring any manual intervention. The virtual circuit may be provisioned upon the reception of an order for a connection from a user location to a target network. The OSS is particulary useful to provision permanent virtual connections (PVC) on service provider networks providing high bandwidth connections to user locations on local loops.
