provides a warning if the node icon has been moved out of the map range.

 

 

• Over span in network view—Displays circuit bandwidth (node, slot, port)

 

 

and protection information. For DWDM spans, the optical direction and

 

 

optical ring ID appear. If the span terminates on the trunk port of a

 

 

transponder card (TXP/MXP), the associated DWDM wavelength also

 

 

appears.

 

 

• Over domain in network view—Displays domain name and the number of

 

 

nodes in the domain.

 

 

• Over card in node view—Displays card type, card status, and alarm profile

 

 

status. For DWDM cards, the number of bands or channels also appear,

 

 

depending on the card type.

 

 

• Over card port in node view—Displays card name, port service state, and

 

 

alarm profile status.

 

 

• Over card port in card view—Displays port service state, protection status

 

 

(if applicable), and alarm profile status. For DWDM cards, the port number

 

 

is labeled as channel, band, or line depending on the card type along with

 

 

the port service state and alarm profile status.
