Noteblank.gif The optical line rate for cards with single-rate PPMs is provisioned automatically when you complete the G277 Provision a Multirate PPM if the trunk port is out of service. If the optical line rate was provisioned automatically, you do not need to complete this task for the MXP_2.5G_10G, MXP_2.5G_10E, MXP_2.5G_10E_C, MXP_2.5G_10E_L, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, 10GE_XPE, or OTU2_XP card. If the trunk port was in-service when you provisioned the PPM, complete this task to provision the optical line rate manually for those cards.



Step 1blank.gif In node view (single-shelf mode) or shelf view (multishelf view), double-click the TXP, MXP, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, 10GE_XPE, or OTU2_XP card where you want to provision PPM ports. If the data rate that you are provisioning is DV-6000, HDTV, ESCON, SDI/D1 Video, ISC-3 (all cards except the MXP_MR_10DME_C or MXP_MR_10DME_L), or ETR_CLO, complete the following steps. Otherwise, continue with Step 4.

a.blank.gif Click the Provisioning > OTN > OTN Lines tabs.

b.blank.gif In the ITU-T G.709 OTN field for the respective PPM, choose Disable.

c.blank.gif In the FEC field for the respective PPM, choose Disable.

d.blank.gif Click Apply.

Step 2blank.gif For the TXP_MR-10G card, click the Provisioning > Data Rate Selection tabs. For all other cards, go to Step 4 .

Step 3blank.gif In the Data Rate Selection area, click Create and choose the type of port from the drop-down list. The supported port types are SONET (including 10G Ethernet WAN Phy) and 10G Ethernet LAN Phy.

Step 4blank.gif Click the Provisioning > Pluggable Port Modules tabs.

Step 5blank.gif In the Pluggable Ports area, click Create. The Create Port dialog box appears.

Step 6blank.gif In the Create Port dialog box, complete the following:

    • Port—Choose the port and port number from the drop-down list. The first number indicates the PPM in the Pluggable Port Modules area, and the second number indicates the port number on the PPM. For example, the first PPM with one port appears as 1-1 and the second PPM with one port appears as 2-1. The PPM number can be 1 to 4, but the port number is always 1.
    • Port Type—Choose the type of port from the drop-down list. The port type list displays the supported port rates on your PPM. See Table 5-3 for definitions of the supported rates on the TXP, MXP, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, 10GE_XPE, or OTU2_XP card.

Step 7blank.gif Click OK. The row in the Pluggable Ports area turns white if the physical SFP is installed and light blue if the SFP is not installed.
If the optical parameter values differ from the NE Default settings, change the port state to In-Service (for ANSI) or Unlocked (for ETSI) to synchronize the values with the NE Default settings.

Step 8blank.gif Repeat Steps 5 through 7 to configure the rest of the port rates as needed.

    • Name—Type a name for the protection group. The name can have up to 32 alphanumeric (a-z, A-Z, 0-9) characters. Special characters are permitted. For TL1 compatibility, do not use question mark (?), backslash (\), or double quote (“) characters.
    • Type—Choose L2 1+1 (port) from the drop-down list.
    • Protect Port—From the drop-down list, choose the port that will be the standby or protection port for the active port. The list displays the available transponder or muxponder ports. If transponder or muxponder cards are not installed, no ports appear in the drop-down list.

After you choose the protect port, a list of available working ports appear in the Available Ports list, as shown in Figure 5-7. If no cards are available, no ports appear. If this occurs, you cannot complete this task until you install the physical cards or preprovision the ONS 15454 slots using the G353 Preprovision a Single Slot.

Step 6blank.gif From the Alarm Type drop-down list, indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold, the falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.

Step 7blank.gif From the Sample Type drop-down list, choose either Relative or Absolute. Relative restricts the threshold to use 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.

Step 8blank.gif Enter the appropriate number of seconds for the Sample Period.

Step 9blank.gif Enter the appropriate number of occurrences for the Rising Threshold.

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 rising threshold of 1000 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.

Step 10blank.gif Enter the appropriate number of occurrences in the Falling Threshold field. 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 seconds subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 seconds, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over a 1000 per 15-second 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).

Step 6blank.gif From the Alarm Type drop-down list, indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold, the falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.

Step 7blank.gif From the Sample Type drop-down list, choose either Relative or Absolute. Relative restricts the threshold to use 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.

Step 8blank.gif Type in an appropriate number of seconds for the Sample Period.

Step 9blank.gif Type in the appropriate number of occurrences for the Rising Threshold.

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 rising threshold of 1000 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.

Step 10blank.gif Enter the appropriate number of occurrences in the Falling Threshold field. 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 seconds subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 seconds, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over a 1000 per 15-second 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).

Step 11blank.gif Click OK.

Noteblank.gif The hardware device that plugs into a TXP, MXP, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, 10GE_XPE, or ADM-10G card faceplate to provide a fiber interface to the card is called a Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP or XFP). In CTC, SFPs and XFPs are called pluggable port modules (PPMs). SFPs/XFPs are hot-swappable input/output devices that plug into a port to link the port with the fiber-optic network. Multirate PPMs have provisionable port rates and payloads. For more information about SFPs and XFPs, refer to the “Transponder and Muxponder Cards” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Reference Manual.

Variable
Description

ifInOctets

Total number of octets received on the interface, including framing characters.

Number of inbound packets that contained errors preventing them from being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol.

ifOutOctets

Total number of octets transmitted out of the interface, including framing characters.

ifInMulticastPkts

Number of multicast frames received error-free.

ifInBroadcastPkts

Number of packets, delivered by a sublayer to a higher layer or sublayer, that were addressed to a broadcast address at this sublayer.

ifInErrorBytePkts

Number of receive error bytes.

dot3StatsFCSErrors

Number of frames with frame check errors; that is, there is an integral number of octets, but there is also an incorrect frame check sequence (FCS).

dot3StatsFrameTooLong

Number of received frames that were larger than the permitted maximum size.

dot3ControlInUnknownOpcodes

A count of MAC control frames received on this interface that contain an opcode not supported by this device.

Total number of packets received that were less than 64 octets in length (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets) and had either a bad FCS with an integral number of octets (FCS error) or a bad FCS with a nonintegral number of octets (alignment error).

Note It is normal for etherStatsFragments to increment. This is because it counts both runts (which are normal occurrences due to collisions) and noise hits.

etherStatsPkts64Octets

Total number of packets (including bad packets) transmitted and received by the interface that were 64 octets in length (excluding framing bits and including FCS octets).

etherStatsPkts65to127Octets

Total number of good packets transmitted and received by the interface that were directed to a multicast address.

Note This number does not include packets directed to the broadcast address.

etherStatsOversizePkts

Total number of packets transmitted and received by the interface that were well-formed and longer than 1518 octets, excluding framing bits and including FCS octets.

etherStatsJabbers

Total number of packets received that were longer than 1518 octets (excluding framing bits and including FCS octets), and had a bad FCS with an integral number of octets (FCS error) or a bad FCS with a nonintegral number of octets (alignment error).

Total number of received packets.

txTotalPkts

Total number of transmit packets.

Step 6blank.gif From the Alarm Type drop-down list, indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold, the falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.

Step 7blank.gif From the Sample Type drop-down list, choose either Relative or Absolute. Relative restricts the threshold to use 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.

Step 8blank.gif Type an appropriate number of seconds for the Sample Period.

Step 9blank.gif Type the appropriate number of occurrences for the Rising Threshold.

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 rising threshold of 1000 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.

Step 10blank.gif Enter the appropriate number of occurrences in the Falling Threshold field. 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 seconds subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 seconds, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over a 1000 per 15-second 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).

Step 11blank.gif Click OK.

Termination Mode

Sets the mode of operation. Options that do not apply to a card do not display.

The MXP_2.5G_10G card is based on SONET/SDH multiplexing. The transparent mode terminates and rebuilds the B1 byte (as well as other bytes) of the incoming OC-48/STM-16 signal. The B2 byte is not touched.

The MXP_2.5G_10E, MXP_2.5G_10E_C, and MXP_2.5G_10E_L cards are fully transparent in transparent mode based on the OTN/ITU-T G.709 multiplexing scheme. It does not terminate the B1 byte or other bytes.

It encapsulates OC-48/STM-16 bytes into ODU1 first, then multiplexes them into an OTU2.

Refer to the “Transponder and Muxponder Cards” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Reference Manual for more details.

Variable
Description

ifInOctets

Number of bytes received since the last counter reset.

rxTotalPkts

Total number of receive packets.

ifInDiscards

Number of inbound packets that were chosen to be discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent their being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol.

ifInErrors

Total number of receive errors.

ifOutOctets

The total number of octets transmitted out of the interface, including framing characters.

txTotalPkts

Total number of transmitted packets.

ifOutDiscards

Number of outbound packets that were chosen to be discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent their being transmitted.

mediaIndStatsRxFramesTruncated

Total number of frames received that are less than 5 bytes. This value is a part of high-level data link control (HDLC) and GFP port statistics.

mediaIndStatsRxFramesTooLong

Number of received frames that exceed the maximum transmission unit (MTU). This value is part of HDLC and GFP port statistics.

mediaIndStatsRxFramesBadCRC

Number of receive data frames with payload cyclic redundancy check (CRC) errors when HDLC framing is used.

mediaIndStatsTxFramesBadCRC

Number of transmitted data frames with payload CRC errors when HDLC framing is used.

8b10bInvalidOrderedSets

Number of 8b10b disparity violations on the Fibre Channel line side.

8b10bStatsEncodingDispErrors

Number of 8b10b disparity violations on the Fibre Channel line side.

Step 6blank.gif From the Alarm Type drop-down list, indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold, the falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.

Step 7blank.gif From the Sample Type drop-down list, choose either Relative or Absolute. Relative restricts the threshold to use 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.

Step 8blank.gif Type in an appropriate number of seconds for the Sample Period.

Step 9blank.gif Type in the appropriate number of occurrences for the Rising Threshold.

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 rising threshold of 1000 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.

Step 10blank.gif Enter the appropriate number of occurrences in the Falling Threshold field. 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 seconds subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 seconds, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over a 1000 per 15-second 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).

Step 11blank.gif Click OK.

Noteblank.gif The hardware device that plugs into a TXP, MXP, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, 10GE_XPE, or ADM-10G card faceplate to provide a fiber interface to the card is called a Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP or XFP). In CTC, SFPs and XFPs are called pluggable port modules (PPMs). SFPs/XFPs are hot-swappable input/output devices that plug into a port to link the port with the fiber-optic network. Multirate PPMs have provisionable port rates and payloads. For more information about SFPs and XFPs, refer to the “Transponder and Muxponder Cards” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Reference Manual.

(Display only) Port number. Up to eight ports might appear based on the number of pluggable port modules that are provisioned.

Enable Distance Extension

Allows end-to-end distances of up to 1600 km for FC1G and up to 800 km for FC2G. If Distance Extension is enabled, set the connected Fibre Channel switches to Interop or Open Fabric mode, depending on the Fibre Channel switch. By default, the MXP_MR_10DME_C and MXP_MR_10DME_L card will interoperate with the Cisco MDS storage products.

Checked or unchecked

Fast Switch

If unchecked, the end-to-end fiber channel link is reinitialized every time a Y-cable protection switch occurs. If checked, reinitialization of the link is avoided when a Y-cable protection switch occurs, thus reducing the traffic hit considerably.

This feature is supported for FC1G, FC2G, FC4G, FICON1G, FICON2G, and FICON4G trunk failures as well as user-initiated Y-cable protection switch such as, Manual, Force, or Lockout. It is recommended that you do not enable the Fast Switch option as the link may not come up after a Y-cable protection switch in certain cases.

Step 6blank.gif From the Alarm Type drop-down list, indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold, the falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.

Step 7blank.gif From the Sample Type drop-down list, choose either Relative or Absolute. Relative restricts the threshold to use 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.

Step 8blank.gif Type in an appropriate number of seconds for the Sample Period.

Step 9blank.gif Type in the appropriate number of occurrences for the Rising Threshold.

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 rising threshold of 1000 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.

Step 10blank.gif Enter the appropriate number of occurrences in the Falling Threshold field. 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 seconds subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 seconds, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over a 1000 per 15-second 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).

Step 11blank.gif Click OK.

Noteblank.gif The hardware device that plugs into a TXP, MXP, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, 10GE_XPE, or ADM-10G card faceplate to provide a fiber interface to the card is called a Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP or XFP). In CTC, SFPs and XFPs are called pluggable port modules (PPMs). SFPs/XFPs are hot-swappable input/output devices that plug into a port to link the port with the fiber-optic network. Multirate PPMs have provisionable port rates and payloads. For more information about SFPs and XFPs, refer to the “Transponder and Muxponder Cards” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Reference Manual.

note.gif

Noteblank.gif On GE_XP card, the copper Pluggable Port Module (PPM) interface can auto-negotiate and carry traffic even when the peer interface operates at rates other than 1000 Mbps.


Flow Control

Enables/disables flow control messaging with its peer port. When enabled, the port can send and receive PAUSE frames when buffer congestion occurs. When disabled, no PAUSE frames are transmitted and the PAUSE frames received are discarded.

Note Flow control messaging is symmetric and not negotiated. When flow control is enabled on one port, the other end of the link (peer port) is not considered. That is, even if flow control is disabled on the peer port, the GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, or 10GE_XPE card will send PAUSE frames.

  • L2-over-DWDM
  • 10GE MXP
  • 10GE TXP
  • 20GE MXP
  • ON—Flow control is enabled.
  • OFF (default)—Flow control is disabled.
  • Display Only.

  • 256k
  • 512k
  • 1MB
  • 2MB
  • 8MB
  • 16MB

NIM

Sets the port network interface mode (NIM). This parameter classifies port types designed for the Metro Ethernet market to simplify deployment, management, and troubleshooting. The port must be in OOS/locked state before the NIM is provisioned.

L2-over-DWDM

  • UNI Mode—provisions the port as a user-to-network interface (UNI). This is the interface that faces the subscriber.
  • NNI Mode—provisions the port as a network-to-network interface. This is the interface that faces the service provider network.

Egress QoS

Enables Quality of Service (QoS) on the port’s egress or output queues. The port must be in OOS/locked state before the Egress QoS is provisioned.

L2-over-DWDM

  • Checked—QoS is enabled on the port’s egress queues.
  • Unchecked—(Default) QoS is disabled on the port’s egress queues.

MAC Learning

Enables or disables MAC learning for the port on GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, and 10GE_XPE cards. MAC learning is used by Layer 2 switches to learn the MAC addresses of network nodes so the Layer 2 switches send traffic to the right location. Layer 2 switches, including the GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, and 10GE_XPE cards in L2-over-DWDM mode with MAC Learning configured, maintain a MAC learning table that associates the MAC addresses and VLANs with a given port.

Note MAC addresses on SVLANs attached to the port must also be enabled to provision MAC address learning on GE_XPE and 10GE_XPE cards.

Note MAC address table aging is 300 seconds. It cannot be changed.

L2-over-DWDM

  • Checked—MAC learning is enabled for this port.
  • Unchecked—(Default) MAC learning is disabled.

Ingress CoS

Provisions the IEEE 802.1p ingress Class of Service (CoS). The CoS.1p bits set the Ethernet frame priority. The port must be in OOS/locked state before the Ingress CoS is provisioned.

Ingress CoS is used to set the priority of the Ethernet frame in the service provider network. This parameter is used to set the CoS.1p bits in the SVLAN tag.

Ingress CoS applies only to ports provisioned as UNI mode. It does not apply to ports provisioned as NNI mode.

L2-over-DWDM

  • 0—(default) All incoming frames on the port will have the CoS.1p bits in the SVLAN tag set to 0.
  • 1—All incoming frames on the port will have the CoS.1p bits in the SVLAN tag set to 1.
  • 2—All incoming frames on the port will have the CoS.1p bits in the SVLAN tag set to 2.
  • 3—All incoming frames on the port will have the CoS.1p bits in the SVLAN tag set to 3.
  • 4—All incoming frames on the port will have the CoS.1p bits in the SVLAN tag set to 4.
  • 5—All incoming frames on the port will have the CoS.1p bits in the SVLAN tag set to 5.
  • 6—All incoming frames on the port will have the CoS.1p bits in the SVLAN tag set to 6.
  • 7—All incoming frames on the port will have the CoS.1p bits in the SVLAN tag set to 7.
  • Trust—Automatically copies customer VLAN tag into the service provider VLAN tag.
  • CVLAN—CoS can be provisioned based on CVLAN. For information on how CoS can be provisioned on the IEEE 802.1QinQ CVLAN tags, refer to the G384 Provision the GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, and 10GE_XPE QinQ Settings.

If CVLAN CoS is configured on a GE_XP or a 10GE_XP card, a PROV-MISMATCH alarm is raised. Until this alarm is cleared, provisioning on the card is not possible.

The CVLAN CoS configuration takes effect only after QinQ is configured.

Inner Ethertype (Hex)

Defines the inner Ethertype field. The Ethertype field indicates which protocol is being transported in an Ethernet frame.

The inner Ethertype applies to ports provisioned in UNI mode only. It does not apply to ports provisioned as NNI mode. The ports must be OOS/locked before the inner Ethertype is provisioned.

L2-over-DWDM

Numeric.

Default: 8100 (IEEE Std 802.1Q customer VLAN tag type)

Range:0x0600 to 0xFFFF

Outer Ethertype (Hex)

Defines the outer Ethertype field. The Ethertype field identifies which protocol is being transported in an Ethernet frame. The ports must be OOS/locked before the Outer Ethertype is provisioned.

Note The PROV-MISMATCH alarm is raised on GE_XPE and 10GE_XPE cards if more than four different Outer Ethertype options are configured per card.

L2-over-DWDM

Numeric.

Default: 8100 (IEEE 802.1Q customer VLAN tag type)

Range: 0x0600 to 0xFFFF

IGMP Static Router Port

Adds multicast-capable ports to the forwarding table for every IP multicast.

L2-over-DWDM

  • Checked—IGMP static router port is enabled.
  • Unchecked—(Default) IGMP static router port is disabled.

AIS Action

Defines the AIS action type provisioned on the port.

L2-over-DWDM

  • None—No action.
    • Squelch—When an AIS packet is received on a SVLAN terminating on the UNI-port, the UNI port is squelched.

Protection Action

Configures the standby port behavior.

L2-over-DWDM

  • None—No action.
    • Squelch—The laser on the standby port in a 1+1 protection group is squelched. This setting has no effect if the port is not part of the 1+1 protection group.

Table 5-85 shows the inner and outer Ethertype behavior based on the NIM setting (either NNI mode or UNI mode). When the NIM is set to UNI, and the QinQ mode is set to Selective, the Ethertype behavior depends on the SVLAN/CVLAN operation that is provisioned, either Add or Translate. (QinQ parameters are provisioned in the G384 Provision the GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, and 10GE_XPE QinQ Settings.)

note.gif

Noteblank.gif A packet can exit out of any UNI/NNI port if the outermost tag in the packet matches with the SVLAN provisioned on that port. In other words, in the egress path, the inner tags (even if present) of the packet are not matched with the inner SVLAN or CVLAN provisioned on the port.


note.gif

Noteblank.gif The Committed Burst Size and Excess Burst Size must be configured based on the expected packet size to ensure that no packets are dropped when Flow Control is enabled. For example, if the CIR is 40% and packet size is 1 KB, the Committed Burst Size and Excess Burst Size should be set to 1 MB.


note.gif

Noteblank.gif When you set the Committed Info Rate above 40% on 10GE_XP and 10GE_XPE cards, the Committed Burst Size and Excess Burst Size must be set to at least 32K. The Committed Burst Size and Excess Burst Size can be increased based on the packet size and Committed Info Rate value.

Step 6blank.gif From the Alarm Type drop-down list, indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold, the falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.

Step 7blank.gif From the Sample Type drop-down list, choose either Relative or Absolute. Relative restricts the threshold to use 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.

Step 8blank.gif Type in an appropriate number of seconds for the Sample Period.

Step 9blank.gif Type in the appropriate number of occurrences for the Rising Threshold.

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 rising threshold of 1000 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.

Step 10blank.gif Enter the appropriate number of occurrences in the Falling Threshold field. 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 seconds subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 seconds, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over a 1000 per 15-second 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).

Step 11blank.gif Click OK.

Total number of packets (including bad packets) received that were 64 octets in length (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets).

etherStatsPkts65to127Octets

Total number of packets (including bad packets) received that were between 65 and 127 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets).

etherStatsPkts128to255Octets

The total number of packets (including bad packets) received that were between 128 and 255 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets).

etherStatsPkts1024to1518Octets

Total number of packets (including bad packets) received that were between 1024 and 1518 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets).

etherStatsBroadcastPkts

Total number of good packets received that were directed to the broadcast address. Note that this does not include multicast packets.

etherStatsMulticastPkts

Total number of good packets received that were directed to a multicast address. Note that this number does not include packets directed to the broadcast address.

etherStatsOversizePkts

Total number of packets received that were longer than 1518 octets (excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets) and were otherwise well formed.

etherStatsJabbers

Total number of packets received that were longer than 1518 octets (excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets), and had either a bad FCS with an integral number of octets (FCS Error) or a bad FCS with a nonintegral number of octets (Alignment Error).

etherStatsOctets

Total number of octets of data (including those in bad packets) received on the network (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets).

rxControlFrames

Number of MAC control frames passed by the MAC sublayer to the MAC control sublayer.

 

Table 5-102 OTU2_XP Card 10G FC Variables

Variable
Description

ifInOctets

Total number of octets received on the interface, including framing characters.

rxTotalPkts

Total number of received packets.

ifInErrors

Number of inbound packets that contained errors preventing them from being delivered to a higher-layer protocol.

mediaIndStatsRxFramesTruncated

mediaIndStatsRxFramesBadCRC

Total number of fiber channel frames received with CRC errors.

Step 6blank.gif From the Alarm Type drop-down list, indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold, the falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.

Step 7blank.gif From the Sample Type drop-down list, choose either Relative or Absolute. Relative restricts the threshold to use 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.

Step 8blank.gif Type in an appropriate number of seconds for the Sample Period.

Step 9blank.gif Type in the appropriate number of occurrences for the Rising Threshold.

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 rising threshold of 1000 collisions every 15 seconds and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 seconds, the excess occurrences trigger an alarm.

Step 10blank.gif Enter the appropriate number of occurrences in the Falling Threshold field. 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 seconds subsides and creates only 799 collisions in 15 seconds, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800 collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over a 1000 per 15-second 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).

Step 11blank.gif Click OK.

ALS Mode

Automatic laser shutdown. ALS provides the ability to shut down the TXP, MXP, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, 10GE_XPE, and OTU2_XP TX laser when the card detects an LOS.

From the drop-down list, choose one of the following:

  • Disable—Deactivates ALS.
  • Auto Restart—(Default) ALS is active. The power is automatically shut down when needed and automatically tries to restart using a probe pulse until the cause of the failure is repaired.
  • Manual Restart
  • Manual Restart for Test

Recovery Pulse Duration

(Display only) Displays the duration of the optical power pulse that begins when an amplifier restarts.

Recovery Pulse Interval

(Display only) Displays the interval between optical power pulses.

Currently Shutdown

(Display only) Displays the current status of the laser.

Request Laser Restart

If checked, allows you to restart the laser for maintenance.

Checked or unchecked

Step 4blank.gif Click Apply. If the change affects traffic, a warning message displays. Click Yes to complete the change.

Stop. You have completed this procedure.

Noteblank.gif This procedure applies to a near-end node that has two MXP_MR_10DME_C or MXP_MR_10DME_L cards, one card acting as the working card and the other as the protect card. The far-end node has a similar configuration. The near-end working card trunk port is connected to the far-end working card trunk port. The near-end protect card trunk port is connected to the far-end protect card trunk port.

Noteblank.gif Perform Step 1 through Step 4 if you are updating the node software. Otherwise, continue with Step 5 to force FPGA image upgrade on MXP_MR_10DME_C or MXP_MR_10DME_L card.



Step 1blank.gif Close the CTC window, if open.

Step 2blank.gif Delete the CTC Cache from the CTC Launcher browser window.

Step 3blank.gif Close the CTC Launcher browser window.

Step 4blank.gif Relaunch the CTC Launcher browser window on the TCC.

Step 5blank.gif Ensure traffic is running on the near-end and far-end working cards for each protection group on the MXP_MR_10DME_C or MXP_MR_10DME_L card.

Step 6blank.gif In node view (single-node mode) or multishelf view (multishelf mode), click the Provisioning > Protection tab.

Step 7blank.gif For each protection group, verify that the working card client port is reported as working/active and the protect card client port is reported as protect/standby.

Step 8blank.gif Repeat Steps 6 and 7 for the far-end node.

Step 9blank.gif For each protection group on the near-end and far-end nodes, complete the G182 Apply a Lockout to prevent traffic from switching to the protect card.

Step 10blank.gif At the near-end and far-end nodes, complete the G192 Force FPGA Update to force an upgrade of the FPGA image on the protect card.

Step 11blank.gif For each protection group on the near-end and far-end nodes, complete the G183 Clear a Lock-On or Lockout to remove a lockout and return a protection group to its usual switching method.

Step 12blank.gif For each protection group on the near-end and far-end nodes, complete theG179 Apply a Force Y-Cable or Splitter Protection Switch to move traffic from the working to the protect card.

Step 13blank.gif At the near-end and far-end nodes, complete the G192 Force FPGA Update to force an upgrade of the FPGA image on the working card.

Step 14blank.gif For each protection group on the near-end and far-end nodes, complete the G180 Clear a Manual or Force Y-Cable or Splitter Protection Switch to clear a Force protection switch on the working card. If the protection group is revertive, this operation causes the traffic to revert to the working card. If the protection group is non-revertive, this operation causes the traffic to remain on the protect card.

Stop. You have completed this procedure.
