PN/SN
Each Port Network and Switch Node located in the cabinet is identified
by its PN number or its SN number and PNC designation (A or B).
Connectivity
Status
For PNs
connectivity status refers to the availability of the Expansion
Archangel Link (EAL) and Indirect Neighbor Link (INL) to the carrier for
both active and standby PNCs (if duplicated). Possible values are:
up EAL and INL are both available.
downEAL and INL are both unavailable.
near-endThe EAL is available and the INL is unavailable.
far-endThe INL is available and the EAL is unavailable.
blankIn the standby column, this means PNC is not duplicated.
For SNs
connectivity status indicates circuit pack insertion on the
Switch Node as follows:
up At least one switch node interface circuit pack in the Switch
Node is inserted.
downThere are no switch node interface circuit packs inserted on
the Switch Node.
blankIn the active column, this indicates that the Switch Node
carrier is currently the standby in a critical reliability system. In the
standby column, this indicates that the Switch Node carrier is
currently active (whether or not PNC is duplicated).
Emergency
Transfer
The location of the circuit pack containing the emergency transfer
select switch (EPN maintenance or SYSAM). In PPN cabinets with

standby Emergency Transfer Select switch is changed while
handshake is down, switch setting displayed will be incorrect until
handshake comes back up.
