How to Configure Two TMX Boards in a Client-Side 1+1 Protection Group Through an SCS Board

How to configure two TMX boards in a client-side 1+1 protection group through an SCS board.

Fault Type

Protection

Symptom

When configuring two TMX boards in a client-side 1+1 protection group through an SCS board, how to configure the attributes of the WDM interface ?
It is required to determine whether the Laser Status parameter should be set to Open and Automatic Laser Shutdown to Disabled, or Laser Status should be set to Open and Automatic Laser Shutdown to Enabled.
Is the laser on the TMX board closed automatically when the TMX boards work with an SCS board?

Cause Analysis

The setting of the Automatic Laser Shutdown parameter of the port on the WDM side or the client side is irrelevant to the protection. Normally, when the attributes of the WDM interface on the TMX board are configured through an OTU board, the Automatic Laser Shutdown parameter of the port on the WDM side is set to Disabled and Automatic Laser Shutdown of the port on the client side is set to Enabled.
After a client-side 1+1 protection group is configured, the status of the client-side laser is controlled by the status of protection group.

Procedure

  1. None.

Result

The problem is resolved.
