■ NMON (Not Monitored): NMON refers to a low-speed port that is not
monitored and will not make a transition to the IS state when a good signal
is detected. A DS3 low-speed port in the NMON state can be provisioned
to the AUTO state, using the CONFIGURATION-Set-State-T3 input. An
EC-1 low-speed port in the NMON state can be provisioned to the AUTO
state using the CONFIGURATION-Set-State-EC1 input. An OC3
low-speed port in the NMON state can be provisioned to the AUTO state
using the CONFIGURATION-Set-State-OC3 input. An OC12 low-speed
port in the NMON state can be provisioned to the AUTO state using the
CONFIGURATION-Set-State-OC12 input.
The electrical low-speed port state can be provisioned separately in the add (from
the cross-connect) and drop (from the OC-48 line) directions.
The primary port states of OC3 and OC12 circuit packs can be provisioned in the
“from OC3” and “from OC12” add directions, respectively.
The FT-2000 OC-48 Add/Drop-Rings Terminal monitors, reports, and alarms
trouble conditions associated with low-speed signals according to the low-speed
port state and the circuit pack slot state. The circuit pack slot state must be in the
EQ state. Table 8-8 shows how the low-speed port state affects monitoring,
reporting, alarming, and performance monitoring of low-speed signals.
