24、rder to achieve the performance objectives given for a multiservice environment. These objectives include error performance (Recommendation G. 826), timing performance (Recommendation G.822) and availability (Recommendation G. 827). This Recommendation defines the parameters and their associated obj

25、ectives in order to respect the principles given in Recommendations M.20, M.32 and M.34. “International“ in this Recommendation refers to SDH paths and multiplex sections which cross international boundaries with a change in jurisdictional responsibility. The methods and procedures for applying thes

26、e limits are described in Recommendation M.2110 for the bringing-into-service procedures and in Recommendation M.2 120 for the maintenance procedures. This Recornmendation uses certain principles which are the basis of the maintenance of a digital network: - It is desirable to do in-service, continu

27、ous measurements. In some cases, out-of-service measurements may be necessary. A single set of parameters must be used for maintenance of the SDH hierarchy (however the actual limits are bit rate dependent). Error performance limits of international SDH paths and multiplex sections are dependent on

28、the medium used. - - This Recommendation covers the error performance limits and in-service and out-of-service parameter evaluation criteria for SDH paths and multiplex sections. Recommendation M.2101.1 (04/97) V Recommendation M.2101.1 PERFORMANCE LIMITS FOR BRINGING-INTO-SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE OF

29、 INTERNATIONAL SDH PATHS AND MULTIPLEX SECTIONS (Geneva, 1997) 1 Scope Within the scope of this Recommendation are bringing-into-service and maintenance of intemational SDH paths and multiplex sections and also SDH signals transported over PDH networks. For the case of PDH signals transported over S

30、DH networks, Recommendation M.2100 applies to the PDH part, and this Recommendation applies to the SDH part. Further guidance is given in the main body of this Recommendation on how M.2100 and M.2101.1 relate. “International“ in this Recommendation refers to SDH paths and multiplex sections which cr

31、oss international boundaries with a change in jurisdictional responsibility. This Recommendation does not consider commissioning of SDH equipment into the network. The lowest bit-rate considered by this Recommendation is the SDH VC1 bit rate. It does not, therefore, consider 64 kbit/s circuits or su

32、b-64 kbit/s which are dealt with by Recommendations M.2100 and M.1340, respectively. The SDH signal format and structure is described in Recommendation G.707. The long-term error performance objectives for SDH networks are given in Recommendation G.826. For availability performance, Recommendation G

33、.827 provides the long-term requirements. Availability performance requirements from a short-term maintenance perspective are under study. Recommendation G.803 provides a modeling method for describing the functions which exist or are required to make up a telecommunications network. This modeling m

34、ethod has been used where appropriate within this Recommendation. Limits for BIS and maintenance are given for Virtual Containers (VC) and Synchronous Transport Module-N (STM-N). Limits are also given for triggering maintenance activity (e.g. repair, fault localization, etc.). Methods of deriving pe

35、rformance information from Bit Interleaved Parity-Ns (BIP-N) and other path overhead information are given. Tandem connection monitoring is not considered in this Recommendation, but may be introduced in the future. Automatic RestoratiodProtection events are considered. The guidance given in this Re

36、commendation in terms of performance limits for maintenance purposes, and that given in the companion Recommendations M.2110 and M.2120 provide a consistent platform from which the requirements for a maintenance management system can be derived. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and o

48、2101.1 (0497) 3 Definitions This Recommendation defines the following terms. 3.1 In this Recommendation, the terms “path“ and “multiplex section“ describe unidirectional transport entities. For a bi-directional path or multiplex section all objectives, limits, etc. should be applied to each directio

49、n of the trail independently from the other direction. This means that for maintenance purposes, performance events occurring on the A-2 direction shall not have any impact on the evaluation of performance events occurring on the Z-A direction, and vice versa. Usage of the terms llpath“ and “multiplex section“ in this Recommendation 3.2 Definition of performance objectives 3.2.1 hypothetical reference path (see Figure 3/G.826) or multiplex section. performance objective (PO): Performance objective for the intemational portion of the 3.2.2 according
