3.5.80 RTRV-<STS_PATH>: Retrieve (STS1, STS3C, STS6C, STS9C, STS12C,
STS24C, STS48C, STS192C)
(STS192C supported for ONS 15454 only)
This command retrieves the attributes associated with an STS path.
The SFBER, SDBER, RVRTV, and RVTM parameters only apply to UPSR.
The path trace message is a 64 character string including the terminating CR (carriage return) and LF
(line feed) that is transported in the J1 byte of the SONET STS Path overhead.
The EXPTRC indicates the contents of the expected incoming path trace are provisioned by the user in
the ED-STS_PATH command. The TRC indicates the contents of the outgoing path trace message. The
INCTRC indicates the contents of the incoming path trace message.
The path trace mode has three modes: OFF, MANUAL, and AUTO. The mode defaults to OFF. The
MANUAL mode performs the comparison of the received string with the user entered expected string.
The AUTO mode performs the comparison of the present received string with an expected string set to
a previously received string. If there is a mismatch, the TIM-P alarm is raised. When the path trace mode
is in OFF mode, there is no path trace processing, and all the alarm and state conditions are reset.
When the expected string is queried under the OFF path trace mode, the expected string is a copy of the
provisioned string or NULL. When an expected string is queried under the MANUAL path trace mode,
the expected string is a copy of the user entered string. When an expected string is queried under the
AUTO path trace mode, the expected string is a copy of the acquired received string or NULL if the
string has not been acquired.
When the incoming string is queried under the OFF path trace mode, the incoming string is a NULL.
When an incoming string is queried under the MANUAL or AUTO path trace mode, the incoming string
is a copy of the received string or NULL if the string has not been received.
J1 (EXPTRC) is implemented on the DS1/DS1N, DS3, DS3E/DS3NE, DS3XM, EC1, OC3, OC48AS
and OC192.
TRC and INCTRC are supported on DS1(N), DS3(N)E, and DS3XM cards.
