Line (1G Ethernet and 2R Payloads) and Line > Trunk


Use the Line subtabs to provision line parameters for TXP or MXP cards provisioned for the following payloads: 1GigE, ESCON, DV6000, SDI_D1, HDTV, FC1G, FC2G, FC10G, FICON1G, FICON2G, ETR_CLO, and ISC or to provision the trunk parameters for the MXP_2.5G_10E and TXP_MR_10E cards.

Port

The card port number.

Port Name

Allows you to enter a 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.

ALS Mode

Allows you to provision the automatic laser shutdown:

  • Disable: ALS is off; the laser is not automatically shut down when traffic outages (LOS) occur.

  • Auto Restart: ALS is on; the laser automatically shuts down when traffic outages (LOS) occur. It automatically restarts when the conditions that caused the outage are resolved.

  • Manual Restart: ALS is on; the laser automatically shuts down when traffic outages (LOS) occur. However, the laser must be manually restarted when conditions that caused the outage are resolved.

  • Manual Restart for Test: Manually restarts the laser for testing.

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.

Apply

Reset

Cancels any changes to the tab and returns the fields to their last-saved settings.
