TIM Action

TIM Action settings control handling of mismatches between received and expected trace messages. Allows you to select the action taken on trace identifier match as:

• tim_report: Reports trace identifier mismatch, not traffic affecting.
• tim_ignore: Does not report trace identifier mismatch.
• tim_downstream_ais: Reports trace identifier mismatch and sends Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) downstream, which is traffic affecting.

• tim_report
• tim_ignore
• tim_downstream_ais

Signal Fail BER Threshold (B2)

Allows you to enable or disable Signal Fail BER thresholds.

Threshold (for TCA-15min)

Parameter to enable TCA (Threshold Crossing Alerts) for 15 minutes duration.

• Enable: TCA is user configured for 15 minutes interval. If this field is enabled, an alert/event is raised on Performance Monitoring counts crossing the threshold value. The thresholds are changed from the TCA Settings for 15-min duration link on same page.
• Disable: TCA are disabled.
• Default: Default values for the thresholds are used.

Link Bundling

Allows you to enable or disable link bundling on the port.

In case of multiple paths between two nodes and link bundling enabled on all the links, protocols namely OSPF-TE, RSVP, and CSPF will be enabled and the related information will be shared via a single Bundled Interface created. In essence, only one adjacency shall be created with that neighbor using any non-faulty link.
