Port
|
The card port number.
|
Port Name
|
The port name.
|
Admin State
|
The port administration state. Choosing an administrative state from the drop-down list and clicking Apply changes the port's service state unless network conditions prevent the change. Admin states include:
IS-Puts the port in-service. The port service state changes to IS-NR.
IS,AINS-Puts the port in automatic in-service. The port service state
changes to OOS-AU,AINS.
OOS,DSBLD-Removes the port from service and disables it. The port
service state changes to OOS-MA,DSBLD.
OOS,MT-Removes the port from service for maintenance. The port service
state changes to OOS-MA,MT.
|
Service State
|
An autonomously generated state that gives the overall condition of the port. Service states appear in the format: Primary State-Primary State Qualifier, Secondary State. Port service states include:
IS-NR-(In-Service and Normal) The port is fully operational and
performing as provisioned.
OOS-AU,AINS-(Out-Of-Service and Autonomous, Automatic In-Service)
The port 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 port stays in OOS-AU,AINS state for the
duration of the soak period. After the soak period ends, the port service state
changes to IS-NR.
OOS-MA,DSBLD-(Out-of-Service and Management, Disabled) The port is
out-of-service and unable to carry traffic.
OOS-MA,MT-(Out-of-Service and Management, Maintenance) The port is
out-of-service for maintenance. Alarm reporting is suppressed, but traffic is
carried and loopbacks are allowed.
|
Line Direction
|
The direction of the ring that the port is on (east-to-west or west-to-east).
|
Type
|
The type of the port. for the OPT-BST amplifier, the possible values are Input Com, Out Com, Input OSC, Output OSC, Input Line, and Output Line. For the OPT-PRE amplifier, the possible values are Input Com, Output Com, Input DC, and Output DC.
|
Total Output Power
|
The total output power.
|
Channel Power Ref
|
The reference channel power.
|
Offset
|
The offset value.
|
Signal Output Power
|
The signal output power.
|
Output Power Set-Point
|
The output power setpoint
|
Working Mode
|
The working mode, either gain or power
|
Gain
|
The value of the optical power increase as a signal passes through the amplifier.
|
Gain SetPoint
|
The target gain value that needs to be maintained for the amplifier.
|
Tilt Reference
|
The value of variation between signal peaks across the spectrum, calculated by CTC.
|
Tilt Calibration
|
The value of variation between signal peaks across the spectrum, entered by the user.
|
AINS Soak
|
Automatic In-Service soak time. The duration of time that must pass with an uninterrupted signal before the traffic/termination transitions to the IS-NR (In Service and Normal) service state.
|
DCU Insertion Loss (Optical Preamplifier only)
|
Dispersion compensating unit insertion loss calculated by CTC.
