5.6.19.2 PSPAN Tab
The PSPAN tab form shows the attributes for the PSPAN that is associated with the port, and, in a dual endpoint
configuration, the attributes for the peer PSPAN.
Line Build Out: The line build out, either in db (long-haul) or feet (short-haul)
Framing Always Unframed, since that is the only type of CES currently supported.
Direction Whether the DS1 interfaces a customer or the network.
Loop Back: Whether to set the port for loopback, and if so either LINE or INWARD (This is
normally done before putting the port in service.
The DS1/E1 port is considered operationally DOWN when a loopback is
configured, because no “thru service” can be provided. Therefore, when a
loopback is configured on the interface, an administratively UP interface would
be “UP-DOWN-Loopback”, while an administratively DOWN interface would
be DOWN-DOWN-Loopback
Runtime Attribute What the line is currently processing for alarms
Modify If any values are changed, this button is enabled.
Disable / Enable A toggle to enable (if disabled) or disable (if enabled) the port. If the user is disabling the
port, there is a warning.
Alarms... Goes to the Alarm window for the port.
Clear Entry Fields If any values have been added, they are cleared (including pull-downs).
