  • failed: Failed test.

Round Trip Delay (Milli. Sec)

Round trip delay in milliseconds. When chanTestType is testdelay, the result of the test can be read in chanRTResult.

Test Type CPE Side

ChanTestType starts testing the segment continuity of a connection. It sends OAM Segment Loopback cells toward the port side (CPE). The CPE loops back the cell. Choose testconseq or notest from the pop-up menu. Notest is the default.

To test the continuity, follow these steps:

    1. Set chanTestTypeCPESide to testconseq.

    2. Read chanTestState until it is Pass or Fail. chanTestType returns to notest when the test is completed.

Test State CPE Side

State of the test. Choose one from the pop-up menu:

  • inprogress: The state of chanTestState when you select any test.

  • notinprogress: The state of chanTestState when a connection is added.

  • passed: Passed test.

  • failed: Failed test.

Ingress Percent Util

Percentage utilization of the IngrService Rate, used for connection admission control.

Egress Percent Util

Percentage utilization of the EgrService Rate, used for Egress bandwidth calculation and connection admission control.

Egress Service Rate

Used for Egress bandwidth calculation and for connection admission control. The actual value depends on the speed of the logical port, which can be a T1, E1 (normal), E1 (clear), IMA T1, IMA E1 (normal), or IMA E1 (clear) port. The IMA's port speed is variable and depends on the number of links in the port. In AUSM, the maximum value is 4830.

Oversubscribe Override

Allows you to add a new connection on a port, even if it is oversubscribed. Choose disable or enablefrom the pop-up menu.

Local VP ID

Every VP connection will have a unique VP ID of between 1 and 340. This is sent to ASC at the time of VP connection setup. This number, along with the slot number, forms a number that is unique across the shelf. This will be set only when adding the connection.

The range varies, depending on the BNM interface:

STI 1100UNI 1..20NNI 1340AUSM-4P 1255

Enable/Disable RM Cells

Enables and disables the sending of Resource Management Cells. Choose disable or enable from the pop-up menu.

Ingress Discard Option

Enables and disables the sending of Resource Management Cells. Choose disable or enable from the pop-up menu.

CDR Number

Key to correlate cell/frame counts, start/end record.
