Applicable Environment
The S5700 detects LOSs on optical interfaces to control the laser of optical modules, ensuring
security and saving energy.
According to the actual networking requirements, after ALS is enabled, you can:
l
Set the restart mode of the laser of an optical module through a command.
l
Set the ALS pulse interval and width of the laser of an optical module through commands.
l
View the ALS configuration on interfaces of different optical modules through commands.
Pre-configuration Tasks
Before configuring ALS, complete the following task:
Ensure that the S5700 has an optical module.
Data Preparation
To configure ALS, you need the following data.
No.
Data
1
ALS pulse interval of the laser
ALS pulse width of the laser
9.3.2 Enabling ALS on an Interface
The ALS configuration takes effect only after ALS is enabled on an interface.
Context
The constraints on ALS are as follows:
l
Only optical interfaces support ALS. Electrical interfaces do not support ALS.
–
When optical interfaces transmit services unidirectionally, they do not support ALS.
–
The hardware must provide support for the software to detect the LOS on an optical
interface and control the laser on an interface.
l
The link aggregation group does not support ALS.
