1 Configuring Non-intrusive Monitoring
Introduction Non-intrusive monitoring enables you to monitor the status of a path segmentwithout terminating the path. It is a monitoring function only and the moni-tored signal is not influenced in any way, even if a failure is detected. Non-in-trusive monitoring is described in:
1.1 What is Non-intrusive Monitoring? on page 7
1.2 The Ports Available for Non-intrusive Monitoring on page 8
1.3 Creating a Non-intrusive Monitoring Point at a Port on page 9
1.5 Attributes in the Non-intrusive Monitoring (NIM) Window on page12
1.6 Deleting a Non-intrusive Monitoring Point on page 15
1.7 Viewing/Editing the Configuration of a Non-intrusive Monitoring
Point on page 17
1.1 What is Non-intrusive Monitoring?
A network example In the example traffic is being transmitted from end-to-end between station Aand station F. Operator X has to buy capacity from operator Y who operatesstation B, C and D. In order for Y to fulfil his obligation towards X, he wantsto monitor the path segment going through his network. As Y cannot termi-nate the path or in any way influence the signal, he must use Non-intrusiveMonitoring (NIM) of station B and station D.

Managing Tellabs 7200 Optical Transport System
The properties that can
be monitored
Non-intrusive monitoring provides the same capabilities that the correspond-ing monitoring of termination points does (see 6 Configuring the Termina-tion Points of a Port on page 79). It can:
emit alarms
monitor performance
collect the performance records
check for any mismatch between the expected TTI and the received TTI
set the TTI mismatch detection status.
The parts of a signal that
you can monitor
Non-intrusive monitoring can be created and deleted independently for eachdirection of a path on the incoming signal (in the sink direction).
1.2 The Ports Available for Non-intrusive Monitoring
The ports available for
monitoring
The ports available for non-intrusive monitoring are dependent on the mod-ules installed in the NE. The table shows the modules and the ports availablefor each module.
Note: Non-intrusive monitoring is not supported by all TRP-rx (2P) and TRP-tx (2P) modules. If the TRP-rx (2P) or TRP-tx (2P) module installed inyour NE does not support non-intrusive monitoring, the module willnot be represented in the Ports:list in the Non-intrusive Monitoring (NIM)window.

Description of the arrows
in the Non-intrusive
Monitoring (NIM) window
An upward pointing arrow alongside a port in the Ports:field shows that anon-intrusive monitoring point exists on the incoming signal throgh theport. Non-intrusive monitoring of the signal starts as soon as the arrow ap-pears, and can only be stopped by deleting the non-intrusive monitoring
point. All non-intrusive monitoring points are created with a default configu-ration. That is, with pre-defined values for its attributes, but these values canbe changed.
1.5 Attributes in the Non-intrusive Monitoring (NIM) Window
Attributes and check
boxes
The attributes and check boxes included in the Non-intrusive Monitoring (NIM)window are described below:
Bit Rate (MBit/s) on page 12
Detect TTI Mismatch on page 12
Expected TTI on page 13 Port ID and Module on page 13
Received TTI on page 13
Signal Type on page 14
Threshold on page 14
TPoint Mode on page 14.
Bit Rate (MBit/s)
Shows the bit rate of the client signal (selected in the Creating NIMwindow, see1.3 Creating a Non-intrusive Monitoring Point at a Port on page 9).
This attribute is read-only.
Detect TTI Mismatch
This attribute, which is shown as a check box, determines whether a mismatch
alarm is generated when the Expected TTIattribute is not equal to the ReceivedTTIattribute. It also determines whether or not a value can be entered in theExpected TTI:field.
Value Description
622 The bit rate of the client signal is 622 Mbit/s.
2488 The bit rate of the client signal is 2488 Mbit/s.
9953 The bit rate of the client signal is 9953 Mbit/s.
Value Description
selected Enables a value to be entered in the Expected TTI:field, and enables a Section trace mismatchalarmto be generated if a mismatch is detected. If a mis-match is detected, an AIS replaces the signal.
deselected Any mismatch is not detected, and therefore nomismatch alarms are generated. The text field ofthe Expected TTIattribute is deactivated.

13/92MA326 Rev. A1 13
Tellabs 6300Network Manager 1 Configuring Non-intrusive Monitoring
Managing Tellabs 7200 Optical Transport System
Expected TTI
This attribute is used in the process that verifies that the signal from a trans-mitting NE is routed correctly. This is the trail trace identifier that the NE ex-pects to receive from the transmitting NE at the other end of the trail. The ex-
pected TTI must be assigned the same value as the transmitted TTI of the NEat the other end of the trail. (see 6.3 How to Use Trail Trace Identifiers (TTIs)on page 80).
You must select the Detect TTI Mismatch:check box if you want to enter a valuefor this attribute. If the Expected TTIattribute does not match the Received TTIattribute a mismatch is detected, aSection trace mismatchalarm is generated,and an alarm indication signal (AIS) replaces the signal.
Port ID and Module
Shows the rack, subrack, slot, port name and module of the port selected in thetree structure in the Ports:field. If more than one port is selected in the Ports:field, this field will be empty.
This attribute is read-only.
Received TTI
This is the trail trace identifier transmitted by the NE at the other end of thetrail received at this NE. This attribute is read-only.
Value Description
15 byte string If you specify a TTI of less than 15 characters, thesystem adds NULL characters. For example ifyou only enter 14 characters, the system will add
one NULL character to the end of the entered val-ue.
Note: It is not possible to visually distinguish be-tween a space and a NULL character as both arerepresented by a blank character.
Value Description
[//] []
Identifies the port and its location in the NE.
Value Description
15 characters A read-only field showing the trail trace identifier(TTI) received from the other end of the trail thatends here. If the Detect TTI Mismatchcheck box isselected, this value is compared with the value ofthe Expected TTIattribute, to verify that the signalsent to the NE is routed correctly. If a mismatch isdetected, a Section trace mismatchalarm is gener-ated.

Signal Type
Shows the signal type of the client signal (selected in the Creating NIMwindow,see 1.3 Creating a Non-intrusive Monitoring Point at a Port on page 9).
This attribute is read-only.
Threshold
Determines the threshold for activation of the Degraded signalalarm.
TPoint Mode
Determines whether alarms from the monitoring point in question are report-ed to the management center.
16 bytes are not repetitively received and there-fore the value is not read.
Note: It is not possible to visually distinguish be-tween a space and a NULL character as both arerepresented by a blank character.
This will typically be due to a server layer fault,but in rare cases to a configuration fault at thetransmitting end.
The value NULL is received.
Note: It is not possible to visually distinguish be-tween a space and a NULL character as both arerepresented by a blank character.
This will typically be due to a server layer fault,an unequipped VC signal or because the accep-tance criterion (16 bytes repetitively received) isnot met.
Value Description
Value Description
SDH The client signal is an SDH signal.SONET The client signal is a SONET signal.
Value Description
1E-5, 1E-6, 1E-7, 1E-8,
1E-9, 1E-10If, on average, one bit error is found in 105, 106,107, 108, 109, 1010bits, respectively, the monitoredsignal is considered degraded and the NE will

2.1 Safety Precautions
Safety classification The Tellabs 7200 system is classified as a Class 3A laser product in accordancewith IEC 825, i.e. exposure to hazardous laser radiation is impossible duringnormal operation and maintenance. When the system has been installed, thelaser radiation is effectively enclosed in the optical fiber path between opticalmodules at each end.
The applied lasers are 980, 1310, 1480 and 1550 nm semiconductor lasers. Asseparate components these lasers are classified as Class 1 (1310 and 1550 nm)or Class 3B (980 and 1480 nm), however when built into the modules and con-nected into WDM systems, the Tellabs 7200 system is a Class 3A system.
Tellabs 7200 system equipment is configured per default, so that in case of aninterruption of the optical fiber trail by accident (e.g. cable rupture) an auto-matic safety mechanism will result in a periodic shutdown of the transmitterlaser. Hence, the laser radiation from any fiber end is restricted to a 2 secondperiod, which is repeated every 70 seconds.
Exposure to laser radiation risked during service or installation can be hazard-ous in case of double fault conditions.

2.2 Automatic Power Shutdown Safety Feature
Automatic power
shutdown safety featureof lasers
For eye-safety reasons, lasers in Tellabs 7200 system TRP-tx and TRP-rx mod-ules can be configured to shut down automatically if, and when, the size of theinput signal to the Tellabs 7200 system module falls below a certain pre-con-figured loss of signal(LOS) threshold which is pre-set in the module.
How the automatic
power shutdown safetyfeature functions
The process that causes lasers to shut down automatically, is illustrated by theexample of a broken optical path between the network element that functionsas an in-line amplifier (ILA) and the network element acting as a multiplexer(MDX).
Stage Description
1 The optical path between the ILA and the input to the multiplexer(MDX) at Site B is broken.
2 No input signal will be received at B.
3 This will generate automatically shutdown of the correspondinglaser transmitter in the forward direction (that is, the laser at C).
4 The lack of a signal at D will cause the Tellabs 6330 node terminalmultiplexer to generate a Loss of signal(LOS) alarm. This alarmwill automatically shut down all the laser transmitters in the Tel-labs 6330 node network element.
5 This means that no optical signal will be sent by the laser transmit-ter E.
6 Therefore no input signal will be received at input port F of theMDX at Site B.
7 This will automatically shut down the corresponding laser trans-mitter in the forward direction (that is, the laser at G).
8 This means that no optical signal will be sent by the laser transmit-ter at G.
9 Therefore no input signal will be received at input port H of thenetwork element functioning as an ILA.
10 This will automatically shut down the corresponding laser trans-mitter in the forward direction (that is, the laser at I), and so on un-til all the lasers have shut down.

2.5 The Optical Ports Window
The window where you
configure the lasers
You can see a representation of the optical ports in the Optical Portswindow.It is in this window that you configure the lasers for each port. The window isopened by selecting the menu item Operation and TestOptical Ports...in thepop-up menu of the NE matrix icon.
2.6 Shutting Down a Laser Automatically
Default setting of
automatic power
shutdown attribute
During production, lasers in relevant Tellabs 7200 system modules (TRP-tx(2P), TRP-rx (2P), TRP-bd (4P) WDM side, TRP-bd (4P) Client side, MA-OFA(4P) and OFA (2P) modules) are configured to shut down automatically whena loss of signal is detected on the input port. In addition TRP-bd (4P) modulesare configured to shut down automatically when a loss of frame is detected.The setting of the Laser Control attribute must be Normal for TRP modules andAutomaticfor OFA modules. Normalrespectively Automaticmeans that the au-tomatic power shutdown (APSD) feature of the laser is enabled. The value ofthis attribute can be viewed and set in the Optical Ports window in the LaserControl drop-down list.
How does the laser
become active again
after a power shutdown?
After a laser has shut down automatically, it does not try to start itself upagain. However, it will become active again as soon as it receives an input sig-nal which is as great, or greater than the loss of signal alarm limit (see2.3 Activating Tellabs 7200 System Lasers after an Automatic Power Shut-down on page 23).
5 A signal will be sent to F. The signal received at F will be largeenough to allow the laser at G to be active again and send the sig-
nal on to H, and so on, until all the relevant lasers in the closed net-work are active again.

2 In the Ports:field, click on the module in question.
The module is highlighted, and its attributes are shown in the fieldsin the top of the window.
When the laser at an optical port has been automatically shut down(see 2.2 Automatic Power Shutdown Safety Feature on page 22)
its Laser Status attribute will be Off, and its Laser Control at-tribute will be Normalif it is a TRP module
its Laser Control attribute will be Automaticif it is an OFA mod-ule.
3 Click on the relevant test button (either the 9-sec testor the 90-sectestbutton).
Note: The length of the optical path will determine the duration ofthe laser pulse chosen to test the optical path.
A laser pulse (of either 9 seconds or 90 seconds duration) is sent outby the laser transmitter at the output port in question.
If the optical path is intact, the input signal to all Tellabs 7200system modules will be above the lower-high threshold level,and therefore the laser transmitters at the modules output portswill become active and send the signal on to the next mod-ule.The laser will remain active until the input signal falls belowthe input ports lower-low threshold power-level.
If the optical path is not intact, the lasers will not be activated.
Note: 3 seconds after the test starts, the Laser Statusattribute of aTRP module is updated. It should change to show In test. If it doesnot, you can click on the Refreshbutton. If the test has started, thestatus should change to In test.

3.3 Setting the Fault Persistency Attributes
What are the fault
persistency attributes?
The fault persistency attributes decide:
how long a fault needs to be detected before an alarm is generated and
shown in theCurrent Problem List
window. The attribute that governs thisperiod is called the Fault On Time.
how long a fault must be absent before the alarm is automatically clearedfrom the Current Problem Listwindow. The attribute that governs this pe-riod is called the Fault Off Time.
Default value of alarm
persistency attributes
The default value for both Fault On Timeand Fault Off Timeis 1 (one) second.
Which alarms can you
set the fault persistency
attributes for?
You can modify the fault persistency for transmission alarms. The value ofeach attribute is common for the whole alarm group.
3 Click on the alarm of interest.
It is highlighted, and details about the alarm appear in the Severity:,RA:, CA:, AUX Ports:and Text:boxes.

Two examples to
illustrate the use of AUX
ports
The figure in Connecting the auxiliary monitoring equipment to the Tellabs7200 systems AUX ports on page 47illustrates the following two examples:
Using the sensor on a cabinet door to create an environmental alarm:
An auxiliary port can be configured to measure its own polarity, and gen-erate a selected environmental alarm when its polarity is high or low.For example, suppose a sensor on a cabinet door is connected to AUX portno. 1. Suppose that AUX port no. 1s polarity is zero (low) when the dooron which the sensor is mounted is closed, but its polarity changes to a pos-itive value (that is, high) when the door is opened. You can configureAUX port no. 1 to generate the environmental alarm Enclosure door openwhen it measures a high polarity. The AUX port is configured accord-ingly (see 3.5.2 Configuring Alarms Generated by Auxiliary Equipmenton page 49).
Changing the condition of cooling fans connected to an auxiliary port:
The port can be configured to generate its own high or low polarity
when a specified alarm is generated by the NE. This polarity can cause thecondition of the attached auxiliary equipment to change. For example, sup-pose some cooling fans are installed in the same cabinet as the NE. Supposethey start automatically when the polarity of the AUX port connected tothem is low. You can configure the AUX port to produce its own lowpolarity when the already-configured Unit temperature too highalarm isgenerated by the NE. This will automatically start the cooling fan.

Connecting the auxiliary
monitoring equipment to
the Tellabs 7200
systems AUX ports
The figure illustrates two types of auxiliary equipment connected to the AUXports of the Tellabs 7200 system.
Demands on auxiliary
equipment
Auxiliary equipment must function according to the polarity of the port con-
nected to the NEs AUX port. This polarity is equipment specific. Refer to therelevant user manual of the equipment in question.
Setting the severity of an
AUX alarm
The severity of an environmental alarm generated at an AUX port must bechanged from None(default value) to another severity level (Criticalor Major)if you wish to send it to any destination (see Destination for an alarm on page48). The procedure for doing this is described in 3.2 Configuring the SeverityLevel of and Destination for a Specific Alarm on page 41.
Specifying destinations
for an alarm
The AUX port to which the auxiliary equipment is attached must be config-ured to send an alarm to a destination. The procedure for doing so is describedin 3.5.2 Configuring Alarms Generated by Auxiliary Equipment on page 49.

Number of management
centers in a network
Small networks can perhaps be monitored/managed by a single managementcenter. The computer must request all NEs in the network to send their alarms(events) to it. However, larger networks normally require more than one man-agement center, and each center is made responsible for monitoring only part
of the network (a limited number of NEs). In this case, each management com-puter must be configured to receive alarms only from those NEs it is respon-sible for monitoring/managing.

5 Configuring and Viewing Performance Data
What is performance
data?
The performance monitoring function lets you examine the performance ofthe traffic terminated in a specific NE. The data, in the form of counter values(see Overview of monitor points collecting historical data on page 65) orgauge values (for example, optical power level, laser bias), is collected in theNE and can be displayed either in list form or as a graph. Configuring andviewing performance data is described in:
5.1 Monitor Points, Data Registers and Event Counters on page 61
5.2 Viewing the Non-historical Performance Data on page 66
5.3 Monitoring Power Levels at Termination Points on page 68
5.4 Specifying Which Historical Performance Data to Display on page 72
5.5 Viewing the Historical Performance Data on page 74.
Performance data can be used to find out in which sections a fault exists, tolocate sources of intermittent errors and/or to determine the quality of ser-vice.
5.1 Monitor Points, Data Registers and Event Counters
Monitor points A monitor point is a termination point which is capable of providing perfor-mance information. Performance monitoring is always active for monitorpoints; you do not need to enable it specifically. In Tellabs 7200 system theperformance data collected are divided into two distinct groups since somedata supports historical information and some do not. The two kinds of data
can be viewed in two separate windows. The data registers and the countersmeasured are described in
5.1.1 Non-historical Performance Data on page 61
5.1.2 Historical Performance Data on page 64.
5.1.1 Non-historical Performance Data
Performance data in the
Performance Monitoring
window
Lasers in TRP and OSC modules, as well as pump lasers are automaticallymonitored for performance purposes in the Tellabs 7200 system. Power levelof lasers at source and sink termination points on each optical transmissionsection is also automatically monitored in Tellabs 7200 system NEs (see
5.3 Monitoring Power Levels at Termination Points on page 68). For modulessupporting forward error correction (FEC), the number of block errors and anestimated bit error rate are monitored. The performance tests are always per-formed, that is, you cannot disable them. You can view these measurementsin the Performance Monitoringwindow.
