PViQ™ Connectivity System panel where the I-Cord is connected.
There are two reasons why you may receive a Security Violation from the PViQ™
Connectivity System because of a port associated with a copper interconnect patch
cord.
1. An unauthorized remove of one or both ends of the provisioned interconnect
patch cord. (The Security Policy states that this port should be connected to a
far-end port that was not disconnect.)
2. An unauthorized add of one or both ends of a copper interconnect patch cord.
(The Security Policy states that this port should not have a connection.)
Clearing a Security Violation for an Unauthorized Remove
Perform the following steps to clear a Security Violation that resulted from a copper
interconnect patch cord being removed without authorization.
1. If either end or both ends of a copper interconnect patch cord were removed
without authorization (security policy states that this port should be connected to
a network device that was never disconnected), reconnect that patch cord to the
same port on the PViQ™ Connectivity System and to the same port on the
network device. The PViQ™ Connectivity System port will have the port LED
light red.
2. Then follow the steps outlined in Adding a Copper Interconnect to the Patch
NOTE: After remaking the connections you must go through the process of
adding a new copper interconnect patch cord to authorize that this is the correct
connection at both ends.
Clearing a Security Violation for an Unauthorized Add
A Security Violation from the system when adding a copper interconnect cable is a
normal step when adding a cross-connect cable to the patch field. Either remove the
cable (because it was unintended) or follow the steps outlined in Adding a Copper
Interconnect to the Patch Field .
Clearing a Fiber Interconnect Security Violation
A fiber interconnect patch cord is a cable that connects a PViQ™ Connectivity System
port to a fiber port on a network device (Ethernet Switch, Server, etc.). When the
Security Violation is on a port with an interconnect cable, you will receive one violation
from the PViQ™ Connectivity System panel where the I-Cord is connected.
