Chapter 1 System Overview
System Components
Note The Cisco IOS software only supports Cisco-certified SFP optics on the 8-port FC/GE aggregation card.
Note The MTU (maximum transmission unit) size for GE on the 8-port FC/GE aggregation card is
10232 bytes.
The Cisco ONS 15530 supports up to four 8-port FC/GE aggregation cards for a total of 32 client
signals.
Protocol Monitoring
For GE traffic, the Cisco ONS 15530 monitors the following conditions on the 8-port FC/GE
aggregation card:
• CVRD error counts
• Tx/Rx frame counts
• Tx/Rx byte counts
• Tx/Rx CRC errors
• Giant packet counts
• Runt packet counts
• 5 minute input/output rates
For FC and FICON traffic, the system monitors the following conditions on the 8-port FC/GE
aggregation card:
• 8B/10B CVRD error counts
• Tx/Rx frame counts
• Tx/Rx byte counts
• Tx/Rx CRC errors
• Link failures
• Sequence protocol errors
• Invalid transmission words
