SET / RETRIEVE T3 TMUX MULTI 1 PERFORMANCE MONITORING STATISTICS
Summary: This procedure describes the steps required to successfully set or retrieve the
performance monitoring statistics for specified T3 TMUX MULTI 1 interface ports within a
Cellworx STN network. This procedure assumes the user has already accessed the GUI and
accessed the Performance Monitoring-Statistics window per NTP-008.
1. Select an NE from the list of NEs in the left selection window. Refer to Figure 727-1. This
will bring up any available card slots in the NE in the next window.
2. Select a slot/card type in the second window and all available ports will appear in the third
window. Multiple slots may be selected.
3. Select the slot(s)/port(s)/channels desired in the third window to display the performance
monitoring layers in the fourth window. Multiple ports may also be selected.
4. Select the layer or layers to be retrieved in the fourth window. If a T3 TMUX Multi 1
slot/port and channel was selected, AAL1, ATM/TC, and DS1 will be available in the PM
layer window for selection. If only the slot and port were selected the DS3 and DS1 layers
will be available for selection.
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 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 Data window appears displaying any error counts for each
error type. Refer to Figure 727-2 for an example.
7. Error types reported are listed in Table 726-1 for AAL1, ATM/TC, and DS1 errors. Slider
bars are used to view the errors 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
current counts using the Refresh button at the bottom of the screen. If retrieving history
counts, Refresh is disabled.
8. Refer to TAP-100 at the end of this section for troubleshooting tips on any alarm counts.
THRESHOLD CONFIGURATION
9. 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 Configuration window similar to Figure 727-3.
