[nsp] POS OC12c NSE/PSE errors
|
|
I'm having a problem with NSE/PSE errors on a POS OC12c local loop
in Seattle. The circuit is provisioned between two locations in Seattle
using a Telco network with SONET ADMs. The circuit runs clean except for
the NSE/PSE errors. The near end is seeing PSE errors at a rate of 200/minute
and the remote end is seeing 200 NSE errors a minute.
Completed troubleshooting:
- Hard loops in front of each router (runs clean)
- SONET BERT test (runs clean)
- Replaced router interfaces at both sides
- Groomed fiber and checked light levels (padded where required)
- Both ends are using "clock source line"
- Hard loops at each site in front of the router towards the far end
(to test the full SONET path)
- Near end shows no errors at all
- Far end shows both PSE/NSE errors
We suspect a problem with the Telco circuit, but I have found that
only Cisco routers report NSE/PSE errors. Has anybody found a good way
to troubleshoot this problem and prove its a Telco problem? Its been
suggested that an all-zeros SONET test or watching the stability of the
H1/H2 pointers would highlight the problem.
