The XCV Threshold settings are based on the error rates considered acceptable on the STS-1 or DS-1 before switching.

CIRCUIT AND NETWORK FAILURE RECOVERY MODE

In this mode, two controller cards are installed and connected to two individual STS-1 lines. This is, of course, the most complete mode of redundancy. In this mode, the primary controller card is connected to the primary STS-1 line and the secondary controller card is connected to the secondary STS-1 line. The primary card and line actively transmit data, while the other card and line stand by ready to take over if the first card and line fail. For example, if CARD A fails, then control switches to CARD B and NET B.

An important feature of the MX2800 STS-1 is its ability to internally re-route the network connection if a controller card and the opposite network connection fail. For example, in the illustration given in Figure 7-3, failed NET A is connected to healthy CARD A; and healthy NET B is connected to failed CARD B.
