The config tab displays and allows configuration of the global SDT
parameters.

Note: The service disruption measurements are cleared when changing the

Layer: Select the protocol layer. Choices are HOP for SONET/SDH,
ODU0 and OPU0 for OTN.

³

Defect Selection: Select the defect which will be used to trigger the
SDT measurement.Choices depend on the selected layer. Refer to the
specific layer tab for possible alarms/errors (see Errors/Alarms: on
page 420).

Note: The Service Disruption Time measurement supports a parent defect

approach where the SDT measurement is triggered when the selected
defect or a higher defect is detected in the signal structure hierarchy is
detected. For example, if Bit Error is selected, an OPU-AIS error will activate
the SDT trigger.
