What to Monitor

7920-A2-GB20-10
Front panel LEDs on each HotWire Model 7924 and 7925 Nest Card Termination
Unit provide status information about the nest card, HDSL local loop, and the T1
or E1 network interface. This chapter presents information on how to monitor and
interpret the HotWire 7924 and 7925 nest card termination unit front panel LEDs.
You can also monitor loop status, change operational parameters, or initiate
loopback testing from the Maintenance Processor (HTU-M or HTU-S) Front Panel
or from a VT100-compatible terminal connected to the HTU-M or HTU-S by using
the Maintenance, Performance, or Status options from the Main Menu.
The HTU-M and HTU-S maintenance processors:
Monitor the status of up to 62 or 63 (HTU-S option only) nest card termination
units
Store the performance history of individual circuits and network status
Monitor and display individual circuit and loop status on the maintenance
processor front panel
Display individual circuit and loop status on the VT100-compatible terminal or
PC running a VT100-compatible terminal emulator program
The HTU-S maintenance processor:
Interfaces with and reports circuit status to your Network Management
System using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
For more information on the maintenance processor, refer to the HotWire
Model 7900 Basic Maintenance Processor User's Guide .
