12.5 Optical Card Performance Monitoring
12.5 Optical Card Performance Monitoring
The following sections define performance monitoring parameters for the OC-48/STM16, and
OC-192/STM64 optical cards.
12.5.1 OC-48/STM16, and OC-192/STM64 Card Performance Monitoring
Parameters
shows where overhead bytes detected on the Application-Specific Integrated
Circuits (ASICs) produce performance monitoring parameters for the OC-48/STM16, and
OC-192/STM64 optical cards.
RS-BBE
Regenerator Section Background Block Error (RS-BBE) is an errored block not
occurring as part of an SES.
RS-ESR
Regenerator Section Errored Second Ratio (RS-ESR) is the ratio of errored seconds
to total seconds in available time during a fixed measurement interval.
RS-SESR
Regenerator Section Severely Errored Second Ratio (RS-SES) is the ratio of SES to
total seconds in available time during a fixed measurement interval.
RS-BBER
Regenerator Section Background Block Error Ratio (RS-BBE) is the ratio of BBE to
total blocks in available time during a fixed measurement interval. The count of total
blocks excludes all blocks during SESs.
RS-UAS
Regenerator Section Unavailable Second (RS-UAS) is a count of the seconds when
the regenerator section was unavailable. A section becomes unavailable when ten
consecutive seconds occur that qualify as RS-UASs, and it continues to be
unavailable until ten consecutive seconds occur that do not qualify as RS-UASs.
