Enabling counter and setting thresholds
...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
When to Use
The following procedures are performed when you want to enable performance
monitoring on a termination point, to set the threshold values and the granularity of the
monitored period.
Related Information
The items below list other relevant information to this procedure:
• Procedure to set the SDH TP Mode, for the required prior setting of the ports to be
monitored. Refer to “Provision ports” (p. 5-59).
• “Concepts” (p. 10-3)
Parameters used in this procedure can be found at “Parameters for configuring PM on
the ITM-CIT” (p. 10-45).
Enable counters and set thresholds
Follow this procedure to configure thresholds, thresholding functionality and to enable
the counters.

2
Select filters for PM Point Type, Slot , Port and the SDH level if applicable (example
VC3, VC4, VC12, VC11) and click
OK.
Important! Establishing VC-12 cross connections via a Fast Ethernet card
determine the following:
• Ethernet over SDH only terminates 20 VC12’s.
• Ethernet over SDH uses a fixed mapping so the 21st VC-12 will never be used
for transmission.
When enabling PM on VC-12 cross connections via a Fast Ethernet card, do not
use the 21st VC-12.
Result: The Edit Performance Monitoring Point window appears applying the
selected filters.
