FFL

Fiber Fault Loopback: When the fiber line fails, the Ethernet port

 

that is being forwarded over the fiber line is forced out of LINK.

 

Similar to the Fiber Alert function.

GUI

Graphical User Interface: Software that provides a visual interface

 

to enable an end-user to manage and monitor network devices.

IS

In-Service stat is the normal state of an active port with normal

 

error reporting.

LED

Light Emitting Diode: A small stack of lights to indicate link,

 

duplex or other options.

LFPT

Link Fault Pass-Through: LFPT can be enabled via iView² or

 

through the console port.

LOF

Loss Of Frame: An error condition where the receiver/decoder

 

misses detection of the framing signal.

LOS

Loss Of Signal: An error condition where the receiving line

 

interface unit does not detect a signal.

MDI/MDIX

Media-Dependent Interface/ Media-Dependent Interface

 

Crossover. The ability of an Ethernet port to automatically detect

 

and configure its cabling connections to accommodate crossover

 

or non-crossover wiring, depending on its link partner and cabling.

MIB

Management Information Base: A database of objects that can be

 

monitored by a network management system. Both SNMP and

 

RMON use standardized MIB formats that allow any SNMP and

 

RMON tools to monitor any device defined by a MIB.

MSA

Multi-Source Agreement (SFP): The standard an SFP must meet to

 

be compatible in network devices.

NOC

Network Operations and Control Center

OOS

Out-Of-Service, OOS is used by the CRAFT personnel to turn OFF

 

the alarm reporting so they can service the line without causing

 

alarm TRAPS to be sent to the NOC Center. The LEDs display a

 

line status but do not report any line related alarms back to the

 

NOC. A card removal or insertion is still reported, but a PORT

 

up/down or changes to its configuration are not.

POP

Point(s) Of Presence: The demarcation point where carrier owned

 

equipment is located at the customer site.
