Cisco ONS 15327 Product Overview, R3.3
June 2002
The protection configuration of the original lower-rate/intermediate-reach optical
card (two-fiber BLSR, UPSR, and 1+1) is retained for the higher-rate/long-reach
optical card.
Alarm Collection and Display
The XTCs have faceplate LEDs that alert you to alarms and provide the critical,
major, or minor status of the alarm. CTC displays alarms and events on a card or
node level for all ONS 15327s in the network. You can also view all alarm
messages that appear in CTC using TL1.
CTC Display
Alarms are displayed in one of five background colors to quickly communicate
the alarm severity. You can control the display of current and cleared alarms
generated on the node. The alarm and event screens include date, time, severity,
reporting node, reporting object, service-affecting status, and a description.
