DS3 > Elect Path Thresholds


Use the Elect Path Thresholds subtab to view and provision electrical path thresholds.

15 Min

Select to enter threshold information for generation of 15-minute TCAs.

1 Day

Select to enter threshold information for generation of 1-day TCAs.

Near End

Select Near End to display the near-end thresholds.

Far End

Select Far End to display the far-end thresholds.

Port

Displays the port number.

DS3 Pbit

Select to display DS-3 PBit threshold information.

DS3 CPBit

Select to display DS-3 CPBit threshold information.

Show Thresholds

Shows the thresholds for the selected parameters.

CV

Sets the threshold for the number of coding violations. Coding violations are BIP errors that are detected in the incoming signal. A threshold is associated with this parameter, and the table cell is flagged in red when it exceeds the threshold. You can set thresholds using the command-line interface (CLI).

ES

Sets the threshold for the number of errored seconds. An errored second is a one-second period with one or more coding violations at that layer or one or more incoming defects at that layer.

SES

Sets the threshold for the number of severely errored seconds. A severely errored second is a one-second period with x or more coding violations at that layer and one or more incoming defects at that layer. The value of x depends on the line rate and bit error rate.

LOSS

Sets the threshold for the number of one-second intervals containing one or more LOS defects.

CVP

Sets the threshold for the coding violations for the path.

ESP

Sets the threshold for the errored seconds for the path.

SESP

Sets the threshold for the severely errored seconds for the path.

SASP

Sets the threshold for the severely errored frame/alarm indication signal for the path.

AISSP

Sets the threshold for the alarm indication signal seconds for the path.

UASP

Sets the threshold for the unavailable seconds for the path.

Apply

Applies changes made to the fields in the tab.

Reset

Cancels any changes to the tab and returns the fields to their last-saved settings.

Help

Displays context-sensitive help.
