Craft Interface Terminal Usage
11-138 Issue 8.0 July 2002
The fields of the report are described below:
Address - Shows the address by slot function, high-speed line designation,
and physical slot location.
Circuit
Pack
- Shows the functional name of the circuit pack.
PortState
DSX OC48
- DSX and OC48 Port States show the state of the port in the
direction from the DSX and the OC-48 line, respectively. The
state of multiple ports (1, 2, and 3) is shown as an i for the IS
state, an a for the AUTO state, an n for the NMON state, a dash
("-") for not applicable (when the slot is not equipped), and a blank
for the timing packs and the high-speed interfaces. The port state
is listed left to right in ascending order.
Switch
State
- Shows whether the circuit pack or DS1 reference input is in an
active state (by carrying traffic or by providing timing) or in a
standby state (by not carrying traffic or by not providing timing).
For OC3 circuit packs, the parameter indicates the state for the
transmit and receive OC3 lines.
Switch
Priority
- Active switch priority shows the current protection switching
priority of a circuit pack or external DS1 reference. The "-ring"
suffix for a high-speed switch priority means that the circuit pack is
signaling a switch request for a switch at the other side of the node
or at another node. An external high-speed switch request results
in an "-ne" (near end) suffix at the node where the request was
entered, and an "-fe" (far end) suffix at the other end of the line. If
the same priority request was entered at both ends of a line, both
ends show an "-ne" suffix.
A dash (-) indicates that the condition causing the switch failure
has been cleared.
The queued or deferred switch priorities can only be a
"manual-ne," "APS(SD)," "APS(SF)," and "manual" for a
low-speed interface.
