About

All the monitoring and control information is retrieved via SNMP and displayed in tables and in a tree control.

Installation and configuration

Creation

This connector uses a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) connection and requires the following input during element creation:

SNMP CONNECTION:

  • IP address/host: The polling IP of the device, e.g., 10.220.250.93.
  • Device address: Not required.

SNMP Settings:

  • Port number: The port of the connected device, e.g., 161.
  • Get community string: The community string used when reading values from the device, e.g., public.
  • Set community string: The community string used when setting values on the device, e.g., private.

Usage

Tree Control

On this page, a tree structure shows the relations between the tables displayed in the Control, Monitor and Notify pages.

Control

This page contains four tables:

  • With the TX Controls Table, you can enable the Squelch TX and the Laser for a particular SFP Index and Channel Index.
  • In the RX Controls Table, you can manipulate parameters such as the Low Optical Threshold or the Output Slew Rate.
  • In the Coax Controls Table, you can configure the following parameters: Output Mute, Reclocker Mode, Switch Mode and Switch Type.
  • The Valid Controls Table indicates which controls are valid and is therefore used to filter the Controls tables.

Monitor 1

This page contains four tables:

  • The SFP Monitors Table displays general information about each SFP: the Module Type, Module Serial Number, Module Version, ...
  • The TX Monitors Table displays the following data about the transmitters: the Wave Length, Laser Status and Standard Detected TX.
  • For the receivers, the RX Monitors Table displays the Optical Power and the Standard Detected RX.
  • The Coax Monitors Table shows, amongst others, the Signal Presence, Signal Lock, Signal Rate, ...

Monitor 2

This page contains three tables:

  • The Valid Monitors Table indicates which monitors are valid and is therefore used to filter the Monitors tables in the Monitor 1 page.
  • The PSU Monitors Table provides the following information: the PSU Index, the PSU Presence and the PSU Temperature.
  • The Misc Monitors Table shows the fan status: Fan Module Presence, Fan Module Temperature and Frame Type.

Notify 1

The four tables on this page, the Mgmt RX Optical Power High Table, Mgmt RX Optical Power Low Table, Mgmt TX Faults Table and Mgmt SFP Communication Loss Table, all provide the following information, related to their respective faults:

  • Fault Valid
  • Fault
  • Send Trap (used to decide if a trap must be sent)
  • Fault Present

Notify 2

This page contains three tables:

  • The Mgmt No Input Detected Faults Table and Mgmt Reclocker Loss Faults Table display the same information as the tables on the Notify 1 page, but for their respective fault types.
  • The FC Faults Table displays the FC Fault Index (e.g., PSU 1 Fail, Fan Fail, ...), FC Send Traps (to turn trap sending off/on) and FC Fault Present.

Web Interface

This page displays the web interface of the device. Note that the client machine has to be able to access the device, as otherwise it will not be possible to open the web interface.
