Chapter 4 Configuring ESCON Signal Aggregation
Configuring Patch Connections
Note If you correctly patch your cards, patch command configuration is not necessary for the signal to pass
from the client to the trunk fiber.
Example
The following example shows how to configure the patch connections between line cards in a shelf with
two OSC cards in slot 4, two OADM modules with OSC in slot 0, and a splitter 10-Gbps ITU trunk card
in slot 3:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# patch thru 0/0 thru 0/1
Switch(config)# patch wave 4/0 oscfilter 0/0
Switch(config)# patch wave 4/1 oscfilter 0/1
Switch(config)# patch wavepatch 3/0/0 filter 0/0/1
Switch(config)# patch wavepatch 3/0/1 filter 0/1/1
Displaying Patch Connections
To display the patch connections, use the following privileged EXEC command:
Note The error field in the show patch command output helps troubleshoot shelf misconfigurations. When
there is a channel mismatch between a transponder card and an OADM module, “Channel Mismatch”
appears for the patch connection. When more than one OADM module drops the same channels,
“Channel Mismatch” appears for all patch connections.
Example
The following example shows the patch connections:
Switch# show patch
Patch Interface Patch Interface Type Error
--------------- --------------- ---- -----
