3.5.73 RLS-PROTNSW-<OCN_TYPE>: Release Protection Switch (OC3, OC12,
OC48, OC192)
(OC192 supported for ONS 15454 only)
This command instructs a SONET NE to release a SONET line protection switch request.
The release of a protection switch request is applicable only to the OPR-PROTNSW protection switch
commands, the user-initiated switch protection commands.
Notes:
1. This command is not used for the common control (TCC+ or XC/XCVT) cards. Sending a command
on a common control card will generate an IIAC (Input, Invalid Access Identifier) error message. To
query the common control card switching commands, use SW-DX-EQPT, ALW-SWDX-EQPT
commands.
2. When sending this command on non-SONET (OCN) cards, an IIAC (Input, Invalid Access
Identifier) error message should be responsed. To use this command on a non-SONET card
switching command, use ALW-SWTOPROTN/SWTOWKG-EQPT and
INH-SWTOPROTN/SWTOWKG-EQPT commands.
3. When sending this command to query on a card that is not in a protection group, the SNVS (Status,
Not in Valid State) error message should be responsed.
4. When sending this command to a working card that is failed or missing, the SWFA (Status, Working
unit Failed) error message should be responsed.
5. When sending this command to a protect card that is failed or missing, the SPFA (Status, Protection
unit Failed) error message should be responsed.
6. When sending this command to a card that is not in protection, the SNPR (Status, Not in Protection
State) error message should be responsed.
7. Sending this command to an OCN line that is already in clear mode will return a SAMS (Already in
Clear Maintenance State) error message.
8. To get the protection switching state (manual, lockout, forced), use the RTRV-COND-ALL or
RTRV-ALM-ALL command.
