Table with one row for each element of the type: 'OTSi'.

Columns

Name Description
A Origin node
B Destination node
Description A user-defined text description (potentially long) that can be assigned to this element
Nominal capacity (Gbps) The total capacity of this OTSI. This is the one of the associated optical signal type in general, but in DSCM-based OTSIs, it corresponds to the fraction of that capacity used (because of the subcarriers used)
Rx: Power (dBm) Rx: Power (dBm)
Attributes User-defined attributes associated to this element
Frequency (Thz) The OTU associated to this OTSi
Working Path Current working path of this OTSi
Path state State of the OTSI path
CEP B TAPI connection-edge-point in the link destination
SRGs The Shared Risk Groups (SRGs) this element belongs to: the SRGs that mandate the shutdown (set in failure state) of this element
Tx: Power (dBm) The optical power injected by the transmission system in the initial port of this optical connection
NEP A TAPI node-edge-point in the link origin
CEP A TAPI connection-edge-point in the link origin
TAPI uuid TAPI global uuid json object
NEP B TAPI node-edge-point in the link destination
Name A user-defined name (typically short) that can be assigned to this element
OTU The OTU associated to this OTSi
Rx: CD (ps/nm) Rx: Chromatic dispersion (ps/nm)
Identifier A unique identifier set to the element, and never changed
Length (km) The length in km that traverses the traffic of this element, considering the paths followed in the underlying physical transport connections. The value provided is the worst case length: all the paths of this element in the underlying infrastructure are analyzed. More than one path can occur e.g. if 1+1 bifurcations appear at lower layers carrying this element
Latency (ms) The latency in miliseconds suffered by the traffic of this element, considering the paths followed in the underlying physical transport connections. The value provided is the worst case length: all the paths of this element in the underlying infrastructure are analyzed. More than one path can occur e.g. if 1+1 bifurcations appear at lower layers carrying this element
Rx: PMD (ps) Rx: Polarization Mode Dispersion (ps/nm)
Transceiver A The transceiver A associated to this OTSi
Transceiver B The transceiver B associated to this OTSi
External links Indicates if this element has one or more user-defined external URLs associated to it. If so, when the user clicks this cell, and selects the URL (if more than one), a navigator is launched and the URL page is shown. External links are not editable in the GUI, but via API.
Optical signal setting The optical signal configuration setting that defines the utilization margins and optical performances for this optical connection
Tags User-defined tags associated to this element
Subcarrier indices The set of indices (starting in 0, up to the maximum number of subcarriers in the multiplex given by the optical signal type) that are being used in this aggregation.
Hit option rule The design option matching this element. If no design option is matched, it is assumed that the element is not confirming the design rules
TAPI JSON Full TAPI JSON for this element
Intra-node Indicates if both end nodes are the same or not
Bidi pair If this element is bidirectional, contains its bidirectional pair
JSON An optional JSON content describing this element
BW (GHz) The total bandwidth occupied in GHz
Installed Indicates if the element is installed. If not installed, the element behaves as if it did not exist, being unable to e.g. handle traffic or reserve any bandwidth
Rx: OSNR (dB) Rx: OSNR (Optical Signal to Noise Ratio) in dB, estimated for a reference bandwidth of 12.5 GHz
TAPI Local uuid TAPI local UUID. This means, local respet to belonging TAPI element
Up Indicates if the element is up (active) or down (failed)
IP Traffic (Gbps) IP traffic in Gbps, summing the traffic in the ODUs of the OTU of this OTSI
