Configuring the Revertive Timer
1:1 TDM path protection can be configured to operate in revertive mode. In revertive mode, the system monitors
the availability of the protected path at all times. After switchover to the protecting path, once the protected path
is operational and available without any alarms, the system waits for the duration of the user-configured Wait to
Restore (WTR) time and then, if the protected path remains operational and available, initiates a revertive
protection switch. A single WTR time is configured for all the TDM trails in the system. However, trails with 1:1
path protection can be configured individually as revertive or non-revertive.
Note
TDM trails with 1:1 path protection that were configured using software versions prior to T7.9 are
non-revertive.
The Revertive timer must be configured before creating a protecting TDM trail so that the configured
WTR time will be in effect for this trail.
To set the WTR time for trails with revertive 1:1 path protection:
1
Underneath the Native TDM Services table, click
Timer Configuration
. The TDM Service Revertive Timer
Configuration page opens.
