C.2.4  Slot Properties—32DMX

The Slot Properties pane displays information about the 32 channel demultiplexer that is selected in the NE Explorer. Use this properties pane to change the module performance monitoring thresholds.

The 32-Channel Demultiplexer card (32DMX) is a single-slot optical demultiplexer. The card receives an aggregate optical signal on its COM RX port and demultiplexes it into to 32 100-GHz-spaced channels.

The 32DMX includes these high-level features:

COM RX port: COM RX is the input port for the aggregate optical signal being demultiplexed. This port is supported by both a VOA for optical power regulation and a photodiode for optical power monitoring.

DROP ports (1-32): On its output, the 32DMX provides 32 drop ports that are typically used for dropping channels within the ROADM node. Each drop port has a photodiode for optical power monitoring. Unlike the two-slot 32DMX-O demultiplexer, the drop ports on the 32DMX do not have a VOA per channel for optical power regulation.


Note The 32DMX card works in conjunction with the 32WSS card to create a software-controlled network element with ROADM functionality.


A block diagram is shown in Figure C-9.

The 32-Channel Wavelength Selective Switch (32WSS) card performs channel add/drop processing within the ONS 15454 DWDM node. It has six types of ports:

ADD RX ports (1-32): These ports are used for adding channels. Each add channel is associated with an individual switch element that selects whether an individual channel is added. Each add port has optical power regulation provided by a VOA.

EXP RX port: The EXP RX port receives an optical signal from another 32WSS module in the same network element.

EXP TX port: The EXP TX port sends an optical signal to the other 32WSS module within the network element.

COM TX port: The COM TX port sends an aggregate optical signal to a booster card (for example, OPT_BST) for transmission outside of the network element.

COM RX port: The COM RX port receives the optical signal from a preamplifier and sends it to the optical splitter.

DROP TX port: The DROP TX port sends the split off optical signal that contains drop channels to the 32DMX card where the channels are further processed and dropped.


Note The 32WSS works in conjunction with the 32DMX to implement ROADM functionality.


A block diagram is shown in Figure C-13.

Power Class

Allows you to change the power class of a laser on a booster or transmit power amplifier. The classes of power are low, medium, and high.


Warning Permanent, serious eye damage can result from looking in an ONS 15800 or ONS 15801 NE.
A live laser signal is present in the module and in the fiber output ports and optical connectors. The laser is activated when you apply a power class. Do not look directly at the output beams.

Caution You should maintain a consistent power class for all amplifiers on the system. Every time
you replace an amplifier, you must configure power class before activating the line.

Optical Safety Protection

The ONS 15800 or ONS 15801 automatically reduces the laser power to a safe level whenever the data signal is lost. Clicking Execute activates the laser for 5 to 10 seconds, even if an input signal is not present. The override is generally used during system setup or troubleshooting to test the amplifier output.

Table C-308 Field Descriptions for the Action Tab 

Action
Description

Optical Safety Override

Allows you to bypass the internal and external optical safety interlocks. This command forces the amplifiers to turn on the pump lasers for a fixed period of time. When an amplifier, such as a booster, controls the output power, the safety override command switches the pump laser to the lowest available power level.


Warning When you execute the safety override command, a live laser signal is present in the module, fiber output ports, and optical connectors. Permanent, serious eye damage can result from looking directly at the module.

Power Class

Allows you to change the power class level of the amplifier. The amplifier directly controls the output power. You can select between two ranges (low or high), or you can click Continuous and define a value. An improper setting of the amplifier could affect the optical channel signal-to-noise ratio in the fiber at the end of the optical line, or it could affect the optical channel power at the level at the end of the optical line. You should maintain a consistent power class setting for all amplifiers in the system.

Output Power Offset

The output power offset is set during installation and represents the offset of the output power.

Laser Off Control

Allows you to shut down the laser and lock the amplifier.



Note See Table 1-19 on page 1-38 for the descriptions of the actions that can be performed using the buttons at the bottom of the window.

C.2.23  Slot Properties—MXP_2.5G_10E Card

The Slot Properties pane displays information about the Cisco ONS 15454 SONET and ONS 15454 SDH slot that is selected in the NE Explorer tree. Use this properties pane to change the module performance monitoring thresholds.

The 2.5-Gbps-10-Gbps Muxponder-100-GHz-Tunable xx.xx-xx.xx (MXP_2.5G_10E) card is a DWDM muxponder for the ONS 15454 platform that supports full optical transparency on the client side. The card multiplexes four 2.5-Gbps client signals (4 x OC48/STM-16 SFP) into a single 10-Gbps DWDM optical signal on the trunk side. The MXP_2.5G_10E provides wavelength transmission service for the four incoming 2.5-Gbps client interfaces. The MXP_2.5G_10E muxponder passes all SONET/SDH overhead bytes transparently.

The digital wrapper function (ITU-T G.709 compliant) formats the DWDM wavelength so that it can be used to set up general communication channels (GCC) for data communications, enable forward error correction, or facilitate performance monitoring.

The MXP_2.5G_10E works with Optical Transparent Network (OTN) devices defined in ITU-T G.709. The card supports Optical Data Channel Unit 1 (ODU1) to Optical Channel Transport Unit (OTU2) multiplexing, an industry standard method for asynchronously mapping a SONET/SDH payload into a digitally wrapped envelope.

The card faceplate is shown in Figure C-28.

Action
Description

Optical Safety Override

Allows you to bypass the internal and external optical safety interlocks. The optical safety override is used on the line to recover from an automatic shutdown. This command forces the amplifier to turn on the pump lasers for a fixed period of time. When the amplifier controls the output power, the safety override command switches the pump laser to the lowest available power level.


Warning When you execute the safety override command, a live laser signal is present in the module, fiber output ports, and optical connectors. Permanent, serious eye damage can result from looking directly at the module.

Power Class 1

Allows you to change the pump class level of the first pump. You can select between two ranges (low or high); or, you can click Continuous and define a value. An improper setting of the amplifier could affect the optical channel S/N in fiber at the end of the optical line, or it could affect the optical channel power at the level at the end of the optical line. You should maintain a consistent power class setting for all amplifiers and pumps in the system.

Power Class 2

Allows you to change the pump class level of the second pump.

Laser Off Control

Allows you to shut down the laser and lock the amplifier.

Action
Description

Optical Safety Override

Allows you to bypass the internal and external optical safety interlocks. This command forces the amplifiers to turn on the pump lasers for a fixed period of time. When an amplifier, such as a booster, controls the output power, the safety override command switches the pump laser to the lowest available power level.


Warning When you execute the safety override command, a live laser signal is present in the module, fiber output ports, and optical connectors. Permanent, serious eye damage can result from looking directly at the module.

Power Class

Allows you to change the power class level of the amplifier. The amplifier directly controls the output power. You can select between two ranges (low or high); or, you can click Continuous and define a value. An improper setting of the amplifier could affect the optical channel signal-to-noise ratio in the fiber at the end of the optical line, or it could affect the optical channel power at the level at the end of the optical line. You should maintain a consistent power class setting for all amplifiers in the system.

Laser Off Control

Allows you to shut down the laser and lock the amplifier.

Ether Ports Subtab

C.4.2.5.1  POS Ports Subtab

The POS Ports subtab (see Table C-618) allows you to view the RMON thresholds for the POS ports. The subtab contains the following fields.

Table C-618 Field Descriptions for the POS Ports Subtab 

Field
Description

Index Number

The index number.

Slot

Select a slot for the new threshold.

Port

Select a port for the selected slot. If you select All, the threshold will be created on all ports for that slot. This operation may take several minutes to complete.

Variable

The MIB variable to monitor. Supported variables are cportQosDropPkts and cportQosDropOctets in the cportQosStatsTable in CISCO-PORT-QOS-MIB.

Alarm Type

Select an alarm type for the new FC_MR threshold. Indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold, falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.

Sample Type

The sample type (relative or absolute). Relative restricts the threshold to using the number of occurrences in the user-set sample period. Absolute sets the threshold to use the total number of occurrences, regardless of time period.

Sample Period

Enter a sample period for the new threshold. The sample period is measured in seconds.

Rising Threshold

The number of occurrences for the rising threshold.

Note For a rising type of alarm, the measured value must move from below the falling threshold to above the rising threshold. For example, if a network is running below a falling threshold of 400 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.

Falling Threshold

The number of occurrences for the falling threshold. In most cases a falling threshold is set lower than the rising threshold.

A falling threshold is the counterpart to a rising threshold. When the number of occurrences is above the rising threshold and then drops below a falling threshold, it resets the rising threshold. For example, when the network problem that caused 1001 collisions in 15 minutes subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 minutes, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over 1000 per 15 minute period, an event again triggers when the rising threshold is crossed. An event is triggered only the first time a rising threshold is exceeded (otherwise a single network problem might cause a rising threshold to be exceeded multiple times and cause a flood of events).

Create

Click the Create button to create a RMON thresholds for the POS ports.

Delete

Select an RMON threshold from the list displayed and click the Delete button.

Sample Period

Enter a sample period for the new threshold. The sample period is measured in seconds.

Rising Threshold

The number of occurrences for the rising threshold.

Note For a rising type of alarm, the measured value must move from below the falling threshold to above the rising threshold. For example, if a network is running below a falling threshold of 400 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.

The Slot Properties pane displays information about the Cisco ONS 15327, ONS 15454 SONET, or ONS 15454 SDH slot that is selected in the NE Explorer tree. Use this property sheet to change the module performance monitoring thresholds.

The ONS 15454 SONET G1000-4 card reliably transports Ethernet and IP data across a SONET backbone. The G1000-4 card maps up to four Gigabit Ethernet interfaces onto a SONET transport network. A single card provides scalable and provisionable transport bandwidth at the signal levels up to STS-48c per card. The card provides line rate forwarding for all Ethernet frames (unicast, multicast, and broadcast) and can be configured to support Jumbo frames (defined as a maximum of 10,000 bytes).

For ONS 15454 SDH NEs, the G1000-4 card provides four ports of IEEE-compliant, 1000-Mbps interfaces. Each interface supports full-duplex operation for a maximum bandwidth of 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps bidirectional per port, and 2.5 Gbps or 5 Gbps bidirectional per card. Each port autonegotiates for full duplex and 802.3x flow control. The G1000-4 card uses GBIC modular receptacles for the optical interfaces.

The card faceplate is shown in Figure C-48.

Table C-699 Field Descriptions for the Thresholds Tab 

Field
Description

Index Number

The index number.

Interface Name

The interface name. Currently, only POS0 and POS1 are supported.

Direction

The direction of the reported statistics. Currently, only output is supported.

COS

The class of service (COS) level. Supported levels are 0 to 7.

Sample Period

The sample period, in seconds.

Variable

The MIB variable to monitor. Supported variables are cportQosDropPkts and cportQosDropOctets in the cportQosStatsTable in CISCO-PORT-QOS-MIB.

Sample Type

The sample type (relative or absolute). Relative restricts the threshold to using the number of occurrences in the user-set sample period. Absolute sets the threshold to use the total number of occurrences, regardless of time period.

Rising Threshold

The number of occurrences for the rising threshold.

Note For a rising type of alarm, the measured value must move from below the falling threshold to above the rising threshold. For example, if a network is running below a falling threshold of 400 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.

Falling Threshold

The number of occurrences for the falling threshold. In most cases a falling threshold is set lower than the rising threshold.

A falling threshold is the counterpart to a rising threshold. When the number of occurrences is above the rising threshold and then drops below a falling threshold, it resets the rising threshold. For example, when the network problem that caused 1001 collisions in 15 minutes subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 minutes, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over 1000 per 15 minute period, an event again triggers when the rising threshold is crossed. An event is triggered only the first time a rising threshold is exceeded (otherwise a single network problem might cause a rising threshold to be exceeded multiple times and cause a flood of events).

C.5  FC_MR-4 Card

This section describes the FC_MR-4 card supported within CTM.

C.5.1  Slot Properties—FC_MR-4 Card

The Slot Properties pane displays information about the Cisco ONS 15454 SONET or ONS 15454 SDH card slot that is selected in the NE Explorer tree. Use this property sheet to change the card properties.

The Fiber Channel 4-port (FC_MR-4) card is a 1.0625- or 2.125-Gbps Fiber Channel/Fiber Connectivity (FICON) card that integrates non-SONET or non-SDH framed protocols into a SONET or SDH time-division multiplexing (TDM) platform through virtually concatenated payloads.

The FC_MR-4 card uses pluggable Gigabit Interface Converters (GBICs) to transport non-SONET/SDH-framed, block-coded protocols over SONET/SDH in virtually concatenated or contiguously concatenated payloads. The FC_MR-4 can transport fiber channel over SONET/SDH using fiber-channel client interfaces and allows transport of one of the following at a time:

Two contiguously concatenated (CCAT) STS-24c/VC4-8c circuits

One STS-48c/VC4-16c CCAT

Two virtually concatenated (VCAT) circuits (STC3c-8V/VC4-8v) compliant with ITU-T G.7041 GFP-T and Telcordia GR-253-CORE

One STS-24c/VC4-8c CCAT and one STS-24c/VC4-8c VCAT
