About Alarm Thresholds
You can configure thresholds on transparent and wave interfaces that issue alarm messages to the system
if the thresholds are exceeded. The threshold values are applied to both transparent an d w ave interfaces
on a transponder line card when protocol monitoring is enabled on the transparen t interface.
The rate is based on the protocol encapsulation or the cl ock r ate f or t he i nte rface . Every se c ond, t he
monitoring facility updates the counters that correspond t o the al arm th resho ld s. When th e si gnal
degrades, or fails entirely, the system issues alar ms to the console. Th ese alarm s can help isolate f ailur es
in the system and in the network.
Command Purpose

wave slot/subcard}Displays the transparent interface configuration.
