Parameter Definition
CV-S
Section Coding Violation (CV-S) is a count of BIP errors detected at the
section-layer (i.e. using the B1 byte in the incoming SONET signal). Up
to eight section BIP errors can be detected per STS-N frame; each error
increments the current CV-S second register.
ES-S
Section Errored Seconds (ES-S) is a count of the number of seconds when
at least one section-layer BIP error was detected or an SEF or loss of
signal (LOS) defect was present.
SES-S
Section Severely Errored Seconds (SES-S) is a count of the seconds when
K (see GR-253-CORE for value) or more section-layer BIP errors were
detected or a severely errored frame (SEF) or LOS defect was present.
SEFS-S
Section Severely Errored Framing Seconds (SEFS-S) is a count of the
seconds when an SEF defect was present. An SEF defect is expected
during most seconds where an LOS or loss of frame (LOF) defect is
present. However, there may be situations when that is not the case, and
the SEFS-S parameter is only incremented based on the presence of the
SEF defect.
Table 8-6 Near-End Line Layer PMs for the EC1 Card
Parameter Definition
CV-L
Near-End Line Code Violation (CV-L) is a count of BIP errors detected at
the line-layer (i.e. using the B2 bytes in the incoming SONET signal). Up
to 8 x N BIP errors can be detected per STS-N frame, with each error
incrementing the current CV-L second register.
ES-L
Near-End Line Errored Seconds (ES-L) is a count of the seconds when at
least one line-layer BIP error was detected or an alarm indication
signal-line (AIS-L) defect was present.
SES-L
Near-End Line Severely Errored Seconds (SES-L) is a count of the
seconds when K (see GR-253 for values) or more line-layer BIP errors
were detected or an AIS-L defect was present.
UAS-L
Near-End Line Unavailable Seconds (UAS-L) is a count of the seconds
when the line is unavailable. A line becomes unavailable when ten
consecutive seconds occur that qualify as SES-Ls, and the line continues
to be unavailable until ten consecutive seconds occur that do not qualify
as SES-Ls.
FC-L
Near-End Line Failure Count (FC-L) is a count of the number of near-end
line failure events. A failure event begins when an AIS-L failure or a
lower-layer, traffic-related, near-end failure is declared. This failure event
ends when the failure is cleared. A failure event that begins in one period
and ends in another period is counted only in the period where it begins.
