Monitoring is enabled. The port or termination point provides service, and
the incoming port or termination point signal is monitored for defects. This
means that receive and transmit side signals are processed according to the
provisioning of the port or termination point, including alarm supervision
and performance monitoring.
A port or termination point can be put into this mode when the signal
source in the remote system is not (yet) operational.
Monitoring is disabled as long as no receive- and transmit-side signals are
applied. However, the monitoring mode is automatically switched to
monitored as soon as a signal is continuously applied.
A port or termination point can be put into this mode when it is not used.
Monitoring is disabled, the incoming port or termination point signal is not
monitored for defects.
