SET / RETRIEVE T3 CRS PERFORMANCE MONITORING STATISTICS
Summary: This procedure describes the steps required to successfully retrieve the performance
monitoring statistics for specified T3 interface ports within a Cellworx STN network.
Information retrieved is on a per node and per port basis. This procedure assumes the user has
already accessed the GUI and initiated the Performance Monitoring-Selection window per NTP-
008.
1. Select an NE from the list of NEs in the "Resource" section of the window. Refer to
728-1. This will bring up any available card slots in the NE in the next window.
2. Select a slot/card type in the "Slot/Card Type" section of the window and all available ports
will appear in the third window. Multiple slots may be selected.
3. Select the port(s) desired to display the performance monitoring layers in the "Port" section
of the window. Multiple ports may be selected also.
4. Select the layer or layers to be retrieved in the "Layer" section of the window. If a T3 CRS
card was selected, ATM/TC (Transmission Convergence), DS3, and PLCP will be available
in the PM layer window. If not, return to step 2 of this procedure and select the proper
interface card.
5. Select the time period for the report from the Interval selection window on the right. If
multiple interfaces were selected, only a single time interval may be selected. If a single
interface was selected, the user may specify several historical time periods to retrieve for
the report. The "current" selection will retrieve any errors that are actively logged for the
interface(s) specified. In no instance may the current interval and a history interval be
selected at the same time.
6. Select the Apply button once all selections have been specified for the performance report.
The Performance Monitoring- T3 Port window appears. Refer to
example.
7. Error types reported are listed in
that are beyond the viewing area, either up or down for additional slots and ports, or to the
right and left for additional error types. The user may update the counts using the Refresh
button at the bottom of the screen. If retrieving history counts, the Refresh button is
disabled. Refer to TAP-100 at the end of this section for troubleshooting guidelines.
THRESHOLD CONFIGURATION
8. Users may specify error counts required to trip a system alarm by clicking on the
Configure Thresholds button at the bottom of the PM Data window. This will bring up a
Performance Monitoring Threshold Configuration window similar to
