Pluggable Port Modules


(ONS 15600 and ONS 15310-CL) Use the Pluggable Port Modules tab to provision and delete optical pluggable port modules (PPM) and pluggable ports. This tab is divided into two areas: the Pluggable Port Modules area to provision PPMs and Pluggable Ports to provision the ports on the PPMs. The following table describes the columns, fields, and actions for the Pluggable Port Modules area. See Pluggable Ports for a description of the Pluggable Port columns, fields, and actions.

Port

Indicates the port number.

Service State

Identifies the PPM service state. Service states appear in the format: Primary State-Primary State Qualifier, Secondary State. Service states include:

  • IS-NR-(In-Service and Normal) The PPM is fully operational and performing as provisioned.

  • OOS-AU,AINS-(Out-Of-Service and Autonomous, Automatic In-Service) The PPM is out-of-service, but traffic is carried. Alarm reporting is suppressed. The ONS node monitors the ports for an error-free signal. After an error-free signal is detected, the PPM stays in OOS-AU,AINS state for the duration of the soak period. After the soak period ends, the PPM service state changes to IS-NR.

  • OOS-MA,DSBLD-(Out-of-Service and Management, Disabled) The PPM is out-of-service and unable to carry traffic.

  • OOS-MA,MT-(Out-of-Service and Management, Maintenance) The PPM is out-of-service for maintenance. Alarm reporting is suppressed, but traffic is carried and loopbacks are allowed.
