Chapter 4 Configuring Interfaces
Configuring the ML-Series POS Interfaces
To determine which alarms are reported on the POS interface and to display the bit error rate (BER)
thresholds, use the show controllers pos command, as described in the “Monitoring Operations on the
POS Interface and POS Controller” section on page 4-13.
Note Cisco IOS alarm reporting commands apply only to the Cisco IOS CLI. SONET/SDH alarms reported
to the CTC are not affected.
Command Purpose
Step 1
Router(config)# interface pos
number
Enters interface configuration mode and specifies the POS
interface to configure.
Step 2
Router(config-if)# pos report
{all | encap | pais | plop | ppdi
| pplm | prdi | ptim | puneq |
sd-ber-b3 | sf-ber-b3}
Permits logging of selected SONET/SDH alarms. Use the no
form of the command to disable reporting of a specific alarm.
The alarms are as follows:
• all—All alarms/signals
• encap—Path encapsulation mismatch
• pais—Path alarm indication signal
• plop—Path loss of pointer
• ppdi—Path payload defect indication
• pplm—Payload label, C2 mismatch
• prdi—Path remote defect indication
• ptim—Path trace identifier mismatch
• puneq—Path label equivalent to zero
• sd-ber-b3—PBIP BER in excess of SD threshold
• sf-ber-b3—PBIP BER in excess of SF threshold
Step 3
Router(config-if)# end
Returns to the privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4
Router# copy running-config
startup-config
(Optional) Saves configuration changes to NVRAM.
