Performance Monitoring
Performance monitoring (PM) refers to the in-service, non-intrusive
monitoring of transmission quality. The 2xGigE/FC-P2P circuit pack will
support the PM counts shown in Table 2-19 on page 2-95. These counts will
be monitored and binned for Ethernet and WAN signals.
Binning is supported for counts:
• 15 minute (current and previous 32)
• 1 day (current and previous)
• Untimed
Various counters are also binned:
• INFRAMES
• INFRAMESERR
• INFRAMESDISCDS
• OUTFRAMES
Note: LAN PMs ES, SES, and UAS on the 2xGigE/FC-P2P do not count
properly if defects are also present on the WAN port.
For additional information on 2xGigE/FC-P2P circuit pack, please refer to
2xGigabit Ethernet/Fibre Channel - Point-to-Point circuit pack on page 3-98.
Fibre Channel Extended Reach
Fibre Channel extended reach avoids throughput degradation for distances up
to approximately 980 kilometers (kms) at full rate or about 18000 kilometers
(kms) at sub-rate (STS1), see Figure 2-38 on page 2-96. For sub-rate, this
means the ability to use 100% of the available WAN bandwidth.
