Configuring Advanced Port Options for CTP Bundles (CTPView)

 

Before you begin:

  • Log in to the CTPView software at least at the Net_Admin level.

  • Connect the CTPView server to the CTP device for which you want to configure bundles.

To configure advanced port options for CTP bundles using CTPView:

  1. In the side pane, select Bundle > Configuration.
  2. Run your mouse over the Display and Select an Existing Bundle bar.
  3. In the table of bundles, select the bundle that you want to modify.
  4. Under Port Options, select the Advanced Options Show to display advanced parameters and configure the parameters as described in Table 39.

  5. Click Click to Submit Bundle AND Port Changes.

FieldFunctionYour Action

Single Ended Data/Clock Output

Do not change this value without consulting JTAC.

Specifies whether or not the CTP device drives received data (RD) onto data set ready (DSR) and real-time (RT) data onto test mode (TM).

Select ENABLED or DISABLED.

Reclock to Align Clock and Data

Do not change this value without consulting JTAC.

Specifies whether or not to reclock RD with the RT clock to align the data and the clock.

Select ENABLED or DISABLED.

Only High TT Checking

Specifies that the CTP device disqualifies transmit timing (TT) only when it is higher than the port speed.

When enabled, this setting keeps the port from going to the TtFail state when the incoming user clock fluctuates between 0 and the configured port rate. If the TT rate goes above the configured port rate, the CTP device sends the port to the TtFail state to protect the system from an overspeed TT, which would cause problems for the port, CTP device, or network.

Select ENABLED or DISABLED.

TT Clock Gated by RTS

When request to send (RTS) is inactive, specifies whether or not the CTP device feeds TT with the internally created clock.

Select ENABLED or DISABLED.

RTS Clock Gated Invert

When clock gating is enabled, specifies whether or not to use the inverted RTS signal.

Select ENABLED or DISABLED.

Input/Output Data Inversion

Specifies whether or not to invert data bound for the interface with data bound for the IP network.

Select ENABLED or DISABLED.

Substitute DDS when TT gone

Helps maintain the low-speed port on a TDM/TDC CTP serial circuit at up when the high-speed circuit goes down.

Select ENABLED or DISABLED.

LOS checking (T1E1 only)

Specifies whether you want to enable or disable loss of signal (LOS) detection for CTP bundles in a T1/E1 both-ended Y cable configuration (hardware-based redundancy or software-based Y cable link protocol).

Select Yes or No.
