Ether Ports > Line


(ONS 15310-CL and ONS 15454 only) Use the Ether Ports > Line subtab to display Ether Port provisioning information. The Line subtab options are described in the following table.

Port

The card port number.

Port Name

The port name. This is the only field that you can provision for the ML-Series card.

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.

  • 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-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.

Link State

The physical port state. Possible values are UP and DOWN.

Expected Speed

Possible values are Auto, 10 Mbps, or 100 Mbps.

Operating Speed

Actual operating speed

Expected Duplex

The port's expected duplex setting. Possible values are Auto, Full or Half.

Actual Duplex

The port's actual duplex setting.

Enable Flow Control

If checked, enables the IEEE 802.3x flow control and buffering to reduce data congestion on the port (default). If flow control is enabled, the Ethernet device attached to the card must be set to autonegotiation. If flow control is enabled but the negotiation status indicates no flow control, check the autonegotiation settings on the attached Ethernet device.

Flow Control

The negotiated flow control mode. Possible values are None, Symmetrical, and Asymmetrical.

8021Q Vlan CoS

Sets the IEEE 802.1Q standard VLAN class of service (CoS) threshold for priority queueing. Possible values are 0 through 7; 0 is the lowest priority and 7 is the highest priority.

IP ToS

Sets the IP type of service (ToS) byte value for priority queueing. Possible values are 0 through 255.

Apply

Applies changes made to the port name.

Reset

Cancels any changes to the port name and returns it to its last-saved settings.

Help

Displays context-sensitive help.
