Commands for Configuring and Monitoring SONET Ports
Table 3-2 describes the ExtremeWare commands for configuring and monitoring SONET
ports. Each command is described in detail in the sections that follow.
Configuring SONET Framing
You can configure each port for framing that complies with either the SONET standard
or the SDH standard. SONET is primarily an American standard; SDH is the
international version. The default is SONET.
To configure the framing for the specified SONET port, use the following command:
config sonet framing [sonet | sdh] ports <portlist>
The following command example selects SDH framing for port 1 of the PoS module
installed in slot 8 of the BlackDiamond switch.
config sonet framing sdh ports 8:1
