26-17 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 User Guide Chapter 26 Managing Mobile Transport Over Pseudowire (MToP) Networks Viewing Channelization Properties For T1 or E1 entries, the TDM properties presented in Table 26-7 are displayed in physical inventory in addition to the existing T1 or E1 properties. Viewing Channelization Properties Prime Network supports the channelization of SONET/SDH and T3 4.3.2. When a line is channelized, it is logically divided into smaller bandwidth channels called paths. These paths (referred to as high order paths or HOPs) can, in turn, contain low order paths, or LOPs. The sum of the bandwidth on all paths cannot exceed the line bandwidth. For SONET show and configuration commands, see Configuring SONET, page 26-53. The following topics describe how to view channelization properties for SONET/SDH and T3 4.3.2: Viewing SONET/SDH Channelization Properties, page 26-18 Viewing T3 DS1 and DS3 Channelization Properties, page 26-21 Table 26-7 TDM-Specific Properties for DS1 (T1 or E1) in Physical Interfaces Field Description International Bit Whether or not the international bit is used by the controller: 0—The international bit is not used. 1—The international bit is used. This property applies only to E1. National Bits Whether or not the national reserve bits (sa4, sa5, sa6, sa7, and sa8) are used by the controller: 0—The national reserve bits are not used. 1—The national reserve bits are used. This property applies only to E1. Line Code Line encoding method for the DS1 link: For E1, the options are Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) and high-density bipolar of order 3 (HDB3). For T1, the options are AMI and bipolar with 8 zero substitution (B8ZS). Cable Length For T1 ports in short-haul mode, the length of the cable in feet.
26-18 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 User Guide Chapter 26 Managing Mobile Transport Over Pseudowire (MToP) Networks Viewing Channelization Properties Viewing SONET/SDH Channelization Properties SONET and SDH use the same concepts for channelization, but the terminology differs. Table 26-8 describes the equivalent terms for SONET and SDH channelization. The information displayed in the Vision client reflects whether SONET or SDH is configured on the interface. To view SONET/SDH channelization properties: Step 1In the Vision client, right-click the required device, then choose Inventory. Step 2Choose Physical Inventory > Chassis >slot>subslot>SONET/SDH-interface. The properties for SONET/SDH and OC-3 are displayed in the content pane. See Figure 26-10. Figure 26-10 SONET/SDH Interface in Physical Inventory Table 26-9 describes the information that is displayed for SONET/SDH and OC3 in the content pane.

26-25 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 User Guide Chapter 26 Managing Mobile Transport Over Pseudowire (MToP) Networks Viewing MLPPP Properties Viewing MLPPP Properties Multilink PPP (MLPPP) is a protocol that connects multiple links between two systems as needed to provide bandwidth when needed. MLPPP packets are fragmented, and the fragments are sent at the same time over multiple point-to-point links to the same remote address. MLPPP provides bandwidth on demand and reduces transmission latency across WAN links. To view MLPPP properties: Step 1In the Vision client, right-click the required device, then choose Inventory. Step 2In the Inventory window, choose Logical Inventory > MLPPP. See Figure 26-14. Sending Alarms Whether or not the line is sending alarms: True or False. Maximum Speed Maximum bandwidth for the line. Framing Type of framing applied to the line. Line Code Line coding applied to the line. Loopback Loopback setting configured on the line. Clocking Clocking configured on the line: Internal or Line. Recovered Clock ID Recovered clock identifier, if known.
