SET / RETRIEVE T3 TMUX MULTI 1 PERFORMANCE MONITORING STATISTICS

Summary: This procedure describes the steps required to successfully set or retrieve the performance monitoring statistics for specified T3 TMUX MULTI 1 interface ports within a Cellworx STN network. This procedure assumes the user has already accessed the GUI and accessed the Performance Monitoring-Statistics window per NTP-008.

1.Select an NE from the list of NEs in the left selection window. Refer to Figure 727-1. This will bring up any available card slots in the NE in the next window.

2.Select a slot/card type in the second window and all available ports will appear in the third window. Multiple slots may be selected.

3.Select the slot(s)/port(s)/channels desired in the third window to display the performance monitoring layers in the fourth window. Multiple ports may also be selected.

4.Select the layer or layers to be retrieved in the fourth window. If a T3 TMUX Multi 1 slot/port and channel was selected, AAL1, ATM/TC, and DS1 will be available in the PM layer window for selection. If only the slot and port were selected the DS3 and DS1 layers will be available for selection.

5.Select the time period for the report from the Interval selection window on the right. If multiple interfaces were selected, only a single time interval may be selected. If a single interface was selected, the user may specify several historical time periods to retrieve for the report. The current selection will retrieve any errors that are logged for the interface(s) specified. In no instance may the current interval and a history interval be selected at the same time.

6.Select the Apply button once all selections have been specified for the performance report. The Performance Monitoring Data window appears displaying any error counts for each error type. Refer to Figure 727-2for an example.

7.Error types reported are listed in Table 726-1for AAL1, ATM/TC, and DS1 errors. Slider bars are used to view the errors beyond the viewing area, either up or down for additional slots and ports, or to the right and left for additional error types. The user may update the current counts using the Refresh button at the bottom of the screen. If retrieving history counts, Refresh is disabled.

8.Refer to TAP-100 at the end of this section for troubleshooting tips on any alarm counts.

THRESHOLD CONFIGURATION

9.Users may specify error counts required to trip a system alarm by clicking on the Configure Thresholds button at the bottom of the PM Data window. This will bring up a Performance Monitoring Configuration window similar to Figure 727-3.
