Due to memory limitations and the number of TCAs generated by different platforms, you can manually
add/modify the following two properties to the platform property file (CTC.INI for Windows and .ctcrc
for UNIX):
•
•
If the number of the incoming TCA is greater than the hiwater mark, the node will keep the latest lowater
mark and discard older ones.
15.2 Intermediate Path Performance Monitoring
Intermediate path performance monitoring (IPPM) allows transparent monitoring of a constituent
channel of an incoming transmission signal by a node that does not terminate that channel. Many large
networks only use line terminating equipment (LTE), not path terminating equipment (PTE).
