The POS Port pane appears.
Step 3 For each port, provision the following parameters:
• Port—Displays a fixed number identifier for the specific port.
• Port Name—Enter a 12 character alphanumeric identifier for the port.
Note Circuit table displays port name of the POS port and not the Ethernet port.
• Admin State—Displays the state of the port. Allowed values are UP or DOWN. For the UP value to
appear, a POS port must be both administratively active and have a SONET/SDH circuit
provisioned.
• PSAS—Check the PSAS checkbox to enable alarm suppression on the port for a time interval set in
the Soak Time column. Uncheck the PSAS checkbox to disbale alarm suppression.
• Soak Time—Enter a desired soak time in hours and minutes (hh:mm) format. Use this column when
you have checked PSAS to suppress alarms. Once the port detects a signal, the countdown begins
for the designated soak time. Soak time hours can be set from 0 to 48. Soak time minutes can be set
from 0 to 45 in 15 minute increments.
• Link State—Displays the status between signaling points at port and attached device. Allowed
values are UP or DOWN.
• MTU—Displays the largest acceptable packet size configured for the port.
• Framing Type— Displays the POS framing mechanism employed on the port.
