T-1 Commands

The information displayed at the beginning of every stats -T command is described in Table 4-3.

Table 4-3 stats-T Command Information

Field

Description

 

 

Sync

When Sync is true, the T-1 engine is detecting frame

 

synchronization. When Sync is false, the T-1 engine has lost

 

frame synchronization and enters the red alarm state.

Loss of Signal

When Loss of Signal is true, the T-1 engine is not detecting

 

pulses on the T-1 network interface receiver. When Loss of

 

Signal is false, the T-1 network interface is receiving pulses.

 

The loss of signal condition causes the T-1 engine to transmit

 

AIS (all ones unframed) on the T-1 network interface.

Blue Alarm

When the Blue Alarm is true, the T-1 engine is receiving AIS

 

(all ones unframed) from the network. When the Blue Alarm is

 

false, the T-1 engine is not receiving AIS. The Blue Alarm

 

event saved in the history buffer is also displayed.

Red Alarm

When the Red Alarm is true, the T-1 engine has detected loss

 

of frame synchronization. During this condition, the T-1

 

interface is sending a Yellow Alarm to the network. When the

 

Red Alarm is false, The T-1 engine is in frame synchronization

 

and the sync indication is true. The Red Alarm event saved in

 

the history buffer is also displayed.

Yellow Alarm

When the Yellow Alarm is true, the T-1 engine is receiving a

 

Yellow Alarm from the network. When the Yellow Alarm is

 

false, the T-1 engine is not receiving a Yellow Alarm from the

 

network. The Yellow Alarm event saved in the history buffer is

 

also displayed.

Loopback

The loopback status has the following possible states:

 

None - There is no loopback in progress. The test LED on the

 

front panel is not illuminated.

 

Local - The T-1 network interface is in local loopback. The test

 

LED on the front panel is illuminated.

 

Line - The T-1 network interface is in line loopback. The test

 

LED on the front panel is illuminated.

 

Payload - This means that the T-1 network interface is in

 

payload loopback. The test LED on the front panel is

 

illuminated.
