port
Syntax [no] port {aps-id}
Context config
Description This command enables access to the context to configure APS on SONET/SDH ports and
assigns an APS group ID. Both working and protection circuits must be configured with the
same APS group ID on either the same 7705 SAR node (SC-APS) or on two 7705 SAR
nodes (MC-APS).
Parameters aps — keyword
id — 1 to 8
aps
Syntax aps
Context config>port
Description This command configures APS on SONET/SDH ports. An APS group contains a working and
protection circuit with the same APS group ID on either a single 7705 SAR node (SC-APS)
or on two 7705 SAR nodes (MC-APS).
The working circuit must be connected to the peer working circuit, and the protection circuit
must be connected to the peer protection circuit.
The aps command is only available for APS groups, not for physical ports.
advertise-interval
Syntax advertise-interval advertise-interval
no advertise-interval

messages sent by the protection and working circuits to their neighbor in an MC-APS group.
The advertise-interval value is valid only for an MC-APS.
