Card View

Card view provides information about individual ONS 15454 SDH cards. Use this window to perform card-specific maintenance and provisioning. The graphic shows a graphic of the ports on the card. The status area displays the node name, slot, number of alarms, card type, equipment type, card status (active or standby), card service state (if the card is present), and port service state. For additional state information, see States.

Note: The information that appears and the actions you can perform depend on the card.

The following table shows the service states indicated by port color on the card view graphic.

Port Color

State

Description

Cyan (blue)

locked-enabled,loopback

Port is in a loopback state. On the card in node view, a line between ports indicates that the port is in terminal or facility loopback. Traffic is carried and alarm reporting is suppressed. 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.

Cyan (blue)

locked-enabled, maintenance

Port is out-of-service for maintenance. Traffic is carried and loopbacks are allowed. Alarm reporting is suppressed. 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. Use locked-enabled,maintenance for testing or to suppress alarms temporarily. Change the state to unlocked-enabled, locked-enabled,disabled, or unlocked-disabled,automaticInService when testing is complete.

Gray

locked-enabled, disabled

The port is out-of-service and unable to carry traffic. Loopbacks are not allowed in this service state.

Green

unlocked-enabled

The port is fully operational and is performing as provisioned. The port transmits a signal and displays alarms; loopbacks are not allowed.

Violet

unlocked-disabled, automaticInService

The port is out-of-service, but traffic is carried. Alarm reporting is suppressed. The node monitors the ports for an error-free signal. After an error-free signal is detected, the port stays in unlocked-disabled,automaticInService state for the duration of the soak period. After the soak period ends, the port service state changes to unlocked-enabled.

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. The automaticInService port will automatically transition to unlocked-enabled when a signal is received for the length of time provisioned in the soak field.
