The E5-OAM Integrated Measurements feature provides full measurements support for an EAGLE node with up to 2400 links without requiring dedicated cards. The Measurements Platform is required for support of more than 2400 links.
Note:
If the 15-Minute Measurements feature is turned on, then the E5-OAM Integrated Measurements feature supports measurements up to 1200 links, and the Measurements Plaform is required for support of more than 1200 links.To mitigate network failures that could cause lost reports, it is recommended that you provision up to three FTP servers for E5-OAM Integrated Measurements. Refer to the Database Administration - System Management User's Guide for information about configuring the FTP servers for E5-OAM Integrated Measurements. If a network failure is on or near the EAGLE OAM IP link, then a loss of reports on the server is possible. The E5-OAM card will not switch activity if the IP link is unavailable on the active MASP. An alarm is generated, but the role change is a manual action. You can run on-demand reports to retrieve the data.
After collection of the measurements, scheduled reports are automatically generated and transferred from an E5-MASP card to a customer FTP server using the FTP interface. Existing FTP file server reports are overwritten by subsequent requests that produce the identical file name.
Reports can be scheduled or generated on demand using the following commands:
chg-measopts
:Turns on the E5-OAM Integrated Measurements collection option
Turns on or turn off the 15 Minute Measurements collection function
Enables or disables the automatic generation and FTP transfer of scheduled measurements reports to the FTP server
Turns on or off the CLLI-based file name option for measurements reports files
Turn on or off the unchannelized link label option
chg-meas:
Enables report generation. The complete command that you must enter so that measurement reports are generated is chg-meas:collect=on
.
chg-mtc-measopts
: Enables or disables the automatic generation and FTP transfer of scheduled daily and hourly measurement reports to the FTP server.
rept-stat-meas
: Reports the status of the measurements subsystem including card location and state, E5-MASP and IP link state, Alarm level, and Subsystem State.
rept-ftp-meas
: Manually initiates generation and FTP transfer of a measurements report from the E5-MASP card to the FTP server.
rtrv-measopts
: Displays the status of E5-OAM Integrated Measurements collection, scheduled reports, 15-Minute Measurements collection, CLLI-based file names, and unchannelized link label.rtrv-mtc-measopts
: Displays the enabled or disabled status of all FTP scheduled measurements reports.
Note:
If a new entity is provisioned in place of a deleted entity, then the measurements for the deleted entity are set to zero. The reported peg counts apply only to the new entity.rept-meas
command cannot be used for the lnp
, np
, and mapscrn
entity types, because the file transfer area (FTA) is disabled. Use the rept-ftp-meas
command for those entity types.
