OTSIs
This table contains the OTSi elements in the network.
Columns
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Signal state at Tx | Signal state at output of TX transponder |
| A | Origin node |
| B | Destination node |
| Signal state at Rx | Signal state at input of RX transponder |
| Description | A user-defined text description (potentially long) that can be assigned to this element |
| Nominal capacity (Gbps) | The total capacity of this OTSI. This is the one of the associated optical signal type in general, but in DSCM-based OTSIs, it corresponds to the fraction of that capacity used (because of the subcarriers used) |
| Attributes | User-defined attributes associated to this element |
| Frequency (Thz) | The OTU associated to this OTSi |
| Working Path | Current working path of this OTSi |
| Path state | State of the OTSI path |
| CEP B | TAPI connection-edge-point in the link destination |
| SRGs | The Shared Risk Groups (SRGs) this element belongs to: the SRGs that mandate the shutdown (set in failure state) of this element |
| NEP A | TAPI node-edge-point in the link origin |
| CEP A | TAPI connection-edge-point in the link origin |
| TAPI uuid | TAPI global uuid json object |
| NEP B | TAPI node-edge-point in the link destination |
| Name | A user-defined name (typically short) that can be assigned to this element |
| OTU | The OTU associated to this OTSi |
| Identifier | A unique identifier set to the element, and never changed |
| Length (km) | The length in km that traverses the traffic of this element, considering the paths followed in the underlying physical transport connections. The value provided is the worst case length: all the paths of this element in the underlying infrastructure are analyzed. More than one path can occur e.g. if 1+1 bifurcations appear at lower layers carrying this element |
| Latency (ms) | The latency in miliseconds suffered by the traffic of this element, considering the paths followed in the underlying physical transport connections. The value provided is the worst case length: all the paths of this element in the underlying infrastructure are analyzed. More than one path can occur e.g. if 1+1 bifurcations appear at lower layers carrying this element |
| Transceiver A | The transceiver A associated to this OTSi |
| Transceiver B | The transceiver B associated to this OTSi |
| External links | Indicates if this element has one or more user-defined external URLs associated to it. If so, when the user clicks this cell, and selects the URL (if more than one), a navigator is launched and the URL page is shown. External links are not editable in the GUI, but via API. |
| Optical signal setting | The optical signal configuration setting that defines the utilization margins and optical performances for this optical connection |
| Tags | User-defined tags associated to this element |
| Subcarrier indices | The set of indices (starting in 0, up to the maximum number of subcarriers in the multiplex given by the optical signal type) that are being used in this aggregation. |
| TAPI JSON | Full TAPI JSON for this element |
| Intra-node | Indicates if both end nodes are the same or not |
| Bidi pair | If this element is bidirectional, contains its bidirectional pair |
| JSON | An optional JSON content describing this element |
| BW (GHz) | The total bandwidth occupied in GHz |
| Installed | Indicates if the element is installed. If not installed, the element behaves as if it did not exist, being unable to e.g. handle traffic or reserve any bandwidth |
| TAPI Local uuid | TAPI local UUID. This means, local respet to belonging TAPI element |
| Up | Indicates if the element is up (active) or down (failed) |
| IP Traffic (Gbps) | Signal state at input of RX transponder |
| Transmission power (dBm) | The optical power injected by the transmission system in the initial port of this optical connection |
