Displaying ML-Series POS Ports Provisioning Information on CTC
Note The 100 FX value in the Optics column of the ML100X-8 repre sent the short wavelength (SX) SFP.
Note The port name field configured in CTC and the port name configured in Cisco IOS are independent of
each other. The name for the same port under Cisco IOS and CTC does not match, unless the same name
is used to configure the port name in both CTC and Cisco IOS.
Displaying ML-Series POS Ports Provisioning Information on CTC
The POS ports provisioning window displays the provisioning status of the card’s POS ports. Click the
Provisioning > POS Ports tabs to display this window. For ML-Series cards, only the POS Port Name
field can be provisioned from CTC. The user must configure ML-Series ports thr ough the Cisco IOS
CLI.
Table 2-3 details the information displayed under the Provisioning > POS Ports tab.

Table 2-3 CTC Display of POS Port Provisioning Status
Column Description
Port The fixed number identifier for the specific port.
Port Name Configurable 12-character alphanumeric identifier for the port.
Admin State Configured port state, which is administratively active or inactive. Possible
values are UP and DOWN. For the UP value to appear, a POS port must be
both administratively active and have a SONET/SDH circuit provisioned.
Link State Status between signaling poi nts at port and attached device. Possible values
are UP and DOWN.
MTU The maximum transfer unit, which is the largest acceptable packet size
configured for that port. The maximum setting is 9000. The d efault size is
1500 for the G-Series card compatible encapsulation (LEX) and 4470 for
Cisco HDLC and Point-to-Point Protocol/Bridging Control Protocol
(PPP/BCP) encapsulation.
Framing Type HDLC or frame-mapped generic framing procedure (GFP-F) framing type
shows the POS framing mechanism being employed on the port.
