TL1 Changes to Cross Connect AID parameter
With the introduction of the new STX-192 circuit pack in OPTera Metro
Release 12.0, a new naming convention was required to represent the VT and
STS managed circuit packs in slots 13 and14. To support the new naming
convention for the Clock and X-Connect (CLX) card, new AIDs (CLX-13 and
CLX-14) for the equipment type are introduced for these cards provisioned in
slots 13 and 14. The default AID will be “CLX”, however the Card Type
parameter will indicate the actual card type (VTX-48, VTX-48e or STX-192).
For system running OPTera Metro Release 12.0 or higher, the default AID for
slots 13 and 14 will be CLX-13 and CLX-14 respectively.
Next synchronization YYYY-MM-DD

Date and time of next time of day synchronization.

UNKNOWN
Date and time of last time of day synchronization.
Time offset +/- 0 to 720 minutes Time offset is the difference between the network
elements real time clock and the reference time of
the time of day synchronization source (the master
clock). For example, if reference time is GMT,
(most NTP servers use GMT as reference), you
will need to set a -3 hour offset (- 180 minutes) if
the real time clock on the element is to report its
time as GMT -3 hours.
Use daylight saving Yes or No Allows you to implement daylight savings if
applicable.
Daylight saving offset 0 to 120 minutes Daylight savings offset is the difference between
the network elements real time clock and the time
offset during daylight saving periods. For example,
if reference time is GMT, and the time offset is -3
hours, and the daylight savings period adjustment
is +1 hour (report time on the element as GMT -2
hour during daylight savings periods), you will
need to set a 60 minute daylight savings offset.

start/end date Yes or No Allows you to have the next daylight savings
period automatically calculated.
