The Slot Properties pane displays information about the Cisco ONS 15808 module that is installed in the slot selected in the NE Explorer tree. Use this properties pane to change the module performance monitoring thresholds.

The Control and Monitoring Processor (CMP) module monitors and relays commands to the ONS 15808 modules. It also provides an interface to supervisory software such as CTM. The CMP module is able to monitor all modules in the system through the Shelf Control Unit (SCU) module, which connects the internal control buses (CBUS) of all optical subracks in the site. This configuration allows all modules installed at a site to be managed as a unique NE. In sites containing more than one bay, multiple CMP modules are required. One CMP module is required for each bay.

CMP modules shown include:

Control and Monitoring Processor—Master (CMP)

Control and Monitoring Processor—Slave (CMP-S)

For ONS 15808 CMP modules, the Slot Properties pane displays the following tabs: Module View, Identification, and Statistics.

C.1.6  Slot Properties—CTX-2500

The Slot Properties pane displays information about the Cisco ONS 15310 MA slot that is selected in the NE Explorer tree. Use this properties pane to change the module performance monitoring thresholds.

The CTX-2500 card, for use with the ONS 15310 MA, is a fully nonblocking cross-connect card that operates in a redundant configuration. It performs system initialization, provisioning, alarm reporting, maintenance, diagnostics, IP address detection/resolution, SONET data communications channel (DCC) termination, system fault detection, and cross-connect maintenance and management for the ONS 15310 MA. The card also provides the circuitry for the OC-3/OC-12/OC-48 interfaces, and ensures that the system maintains timing with SMC stability.

The CTX-2500 card provides 576 x 576 STS-1 level cross-connections, 96 x 96 TU-3 level cross-connections, 2688 x 2688 VT1.5s, or 2016 x 2016 VT2s.

The CTX-2500 card can be installed in slots 3 or 4. Protection switches between the active and standby CTX-2500 are hitless (less than a 50-ms impact to any traffic).

The CTX-2500 supports errorless side switches (switching from one CTX-2500 on one side of the shelf to the other CTX-2500 on the other side of the shelf) when the switch is initiated through software and is caused by a software upgrade.

There are two PPM (SFP) slots on the CTX-2500 faceplate. Each slot can contain a one-port PPM. Cisco-qualified SFPs can be single-rate (OC-3, OC-12, or OC-48) or multirate (OC-3, OC-12, and OC-48). Single-rate PPMs are autoprovisioned when they are installed, but multirate PPMs must be provisioned. This behavior can be controlled by NE defaults.

The following figure shows the CTX-2500 card faceplate.

Figure C-1 CTX-2500 Faceplate

For the CTX-2500 module, the Slot Properties pane displays the following tabs: Module View, Identification, Pluggable Provisioning, Line, STS, VT, Loopback, Alarm Behavior, Transceiver, Auto Laser Shutdown, Protection, J1 Path Trace, and Section Trace.

Failure count-line (FC-L) lists a count of the number of near-end line failure events. A failure event begins when an AIS-L failure is declared, or when a lower-layer, traffic-related, near-end failure is declared. This failure event ends when the failure is cleared. A failure event that begins in one period and ends in another period is counted only in the period where it begins.

PSC

In a 1 + 1 protection scheme for a working card, protection switching count (PSC) is a count of the number of times service switches from a working card to a protection card plus the number of times service switches back to the working card. For a protection card, PSC is a count of the number of times service switches to a working card from a protection card plus the number of times service switches back to the protection card. The PSC PM is only applicable if revertive line-level protection switching is used. PSC is supported in revertive and nonrevertive modes.

Note This parameter is not supported for transponder or muxponder cards.

PSD

Protection switching duration (PSD) applies to the length of time, in seconds, that service is carried on another line. For a working line, PSD is a count of the number of seconds that service was carried on the protection line. For the protection line, it is a count of the seconds that the line was used to carry service. The PSD PM is only applicable if revertive line-level protection switching is used. PSD is supported in revertive and nonrevertive modes.

Note This parameter is not supported for transponder or muxponder cards.

PSD

Protection switching duration (PSD) applies to the length of time, in seconds, that service is carried on another line. For a working line, PSD is a count of the number of seconds that service was carried on the protection line. For the protection line, it is a count of the seconds that the line was used to carry service. The PSD PM is only applicable if revertive line-level protection switching is used. PSD is supported in revertive and nonrevertive modes.

C.1.14  Slot Properties—OCP

The Slot Properties pane displays information about the Cisco ONS 15808 module that is installed in the slot selected in the NE Explorer tree. Use this properties pane to change the module performance monitoring thresholds.

The Optical Channel Protection (OCP) module enables 1+1 protection of a generic client optical signal regardless of bit rate, format protocol, and wavelength. To provide this protection, the OCP module is placed at the optical system access point. This means that the module must be connected between the client terminal and the ONS 15808 system transponders to provide path protection. The OCP module can provide channel protection on the physical layer.
