Viewing Real-time Transport Service PMs

 

Use this procedure to enable and view real-time PMs for transport services on a BTI7800 network and transport services with BTI7800, MX Series, PTX Series, or QFX Series endpoints connected across a BTI7000 optical network. The PMs are displayed in both textual and graphical formats.

PSM supports the following BTI7800 transport service PMs:

The MX Series and PTX Series routers and QFX Series switches support the following Simple PMs: optical power transmit (current/average/minimum/maximum) and optical power receive (current/average/minimum/maximum). For the list of Detailed PMs supported on an MX Series or PTX Series router or QFX Series switch, see PM Counters for Optical Interfaces on MX Series and PTX Series Routers and QFX Series Switches.

  1. To enable real-time PMs, right-click a transport service in the tree view or in the background of a transport service topology view, and choose one of the following:
    • Enable Realtime PMs >Simple

    • Enable Realtime PMs >Detailed

    Real-time PM collection for the transport service is started, and a PM data widget title bar is displayed in the main window for each PM collection point. Additionally, a graphical view is displayed in the bottom window.

    Note

    When you enable PMs on a stranded service1, you might see PM data widgets that do not have lines connecting them to the network elements. This behavior is normal.

    Note

    1A service is stranded if one or more segments in the path between the service endpoints has not been configured.

  2. Click the PM data widget title bar to show or hide the PM data.

  3. To undock the graph to its own window, right-click on the tab in the graph window and select Undock.

    The graph appears in a window that you can reposition and resize.

  4. To change the scale of the graphs, highlight the desired area by left-clicking and dragging the mouse to highlight the area of focus, and release.

    Repeat until the desired magnification is achieved.

    Note

    You can also change the scale by right-clicking on a graph, and selecting Zoom In or Zoom Out.

  5. To turn off real-time PMs, right-click in the optical services topology window and choose Disable Realtime PMs.
