States
Service states include a Primary State (PST) and Primary State Qualifier (PSTQ), and one or more Secondary States (SSTs). Administrative states are used to manage service states. Administrative states consist of a PST and an SST. Entity states in Software Release 5.0 and later are based on the generic state model defined in Telcordia GR-1093-CORE, Issue 2 and ITU-T X.731.
The following table defines the PSTs and PSTQs supported by the ONS nodes.
 
Primary State-Primary State Qualifier
Definition
IS-NR
(In-Service and Normal) The entity is fully operational and will perform as provisioned.
OOS-AU
(Out-of-Service and Autonomous) The entity is not operational because of an autonomous event.
OOS-AUMA
(Out-of-Service and Autonomous Management) The entity is not operational because of an autonomous event and has also been manually removed from service.
OOS-MA
(Out-of-Service and Management) The entity has been manually removed from service.
The following table defines the SSTs supported by the ONS nodes.
 
Secondary State
Definition
AINS
(Automatic In-Service) The entity is delayed before transitioning to the IS-NR service state. The transition to IS-NR depends on correction of conditions, or on a soak timer. Alarm reporting is suppressed, but traffic is carried. Raised fault conditions, whether or not their alarms are reported, can be retrieved on the Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) Conditions tab or by using the TL1 RTRV-COND command.
DSBLD
(Disabled) The entity was manually removed from service and does not provide its provisioned functions. All services are disrupted; the entity is unable to carry traffic.
Note
CTC does not allow you to change an entity from the IS-NR service state to the OOS-MA,DSBLD service state. You must first put the entity in the OOS-MA,MT service state.
FLT
(Fault) The entity has a raised alarm or condition.
LPBK
(Loopback) The entity is in loopback mode.
MEA
(Mismatched Equipment) An improper card is installed. For example, an installed card is not compatible with the card preprovisioning or the slot. This SST applies only to cards.
MT
(Maintenance) The entity has been manually removed from service for a maintenance activity but still performs its provisioned functions. Alarm reporting is suppressed, but traffic is carried. Raised fault conditions, whether or not their alarms are reported, can be retrieved on the CTC Conditions tab or by using the TL1 RTRV-COND command.
OOG
(Out of Group) The virtual concatenation (VCAT) member cross-connect is not used to carry VCAT group traffic. This state is used to put a member circuit out of the group and to stop sending traffic. OOS-MA,OOG only applies to the cross-connects on an end node where VCAT resides. The cross-connects on intermediate nodes are in the OOS-MA,MT service state.
SWDL
(Software Download) The card is involved in a software and database download. This SST applies only to cards.
UAS
(Unassigned) The card is not provisioned in the database. This SST applies only to cards.
UEQ
(Unequipped) The card is not physically present (that is, an empty slot). This SST applies only to cards.
