2.2.4.4 
Managed Element and Object Creation Event 
You can use the Prime Optical client to add new managed elements. If the name of the new element is 
incorrect, an object creation event is generated with the incorrect name. Later, when Prime Optical 
connects to the actual NE, it retrieves the correct name. Prime Optical generates an AVC event to notify 
the NMS of the correct name. 
2.2.5  Naming Conventions 
The following sections describe naming conventions for objects that Prime Optical reports. 
2.2.5.1 
Multilayer Subnetwork 
You define the name in the Prime Optical client. If you do not specify a name, Prime Optical assigns a 
default name. 
2.2.5.2 
Managed Element 
The ME reports the name. 
2.2.5.3 
Physical Termination Point 
The PTP name represents the position of the PTP with respect to the equipment. For example, port 
number 4 on equipment in slot 15 is reported as /rack=1/shelf=1/slot=15/port=4. 
For multishelf NEs, the rack and shelf number must be included in the PTP name. ONS 15454 MSTP 
NEs support up to eight shelves per NE. The shelf ID identifies a specific shelf on the NE. The rack ID 
remains 1 for all shelves. 
This PTP naming convention is used to represent the front Ethernet ports for the ONS 15454 SONET and 
ONS 15454 SDH ML-series cards. The back Ethernet ports are reported as floating termination points 
(FTPs). 
For class of service (CoS) data on data cards, the PTP name specifies the interface (POS, Fast Ethernet, 
Gigabit Ethernet), direction (input/output), and CoS level (0 to 7). 
For example, CoS data with a POS interface, input direction, and CoS level 3 for slot 1, port 1 is reported 
as rack=1/shelf=1/slot=1/port=1:POS/Input/3. 
Similarly, CoS data with a Fast Ethernet interface, output direction, and CoS level 5 for slot 1, port 1 is 
reported as /rack=1/shelf=1/slot=1/port=1:FastEthernet/Output/5. 
For the ONS 15600 SONET, the ASAP card on slot 3, port 1 on PPM 3 and PIM 2 is reported as 
/rack=1/shelf=1/slot=3/sub_slot=2/ppm_holder=3/port=1. 
For the ONS 15310 CL, ONS 15310 MA SONET, and ONS 15310 MA SDH, a port on PPM number 2 is 
reported as /rack=1/shelf=1/slot=2/ppm_holder=2/port=1. 
For the ONS 15454 SONET and ONS 15454 SDH, ONS NCS2K SONET, and ONS NCS2K SDH, a port 
on PPM number 2 is reported as /rack=1/shelf=1/slot=2/ppm_holder=2/port=1. 
For unmanaged NEs, the PTP native name is a free-format string. 
For 100G TXP-series cards (100G-LC-C, 10x10G-LC, and M-CFP-LC) on ONS 15454 SONET and ONS 
15454 SDH, ONS NCS2K SONET, and ONS NCS2K SDH, Prime Optical uses 
/rack=1/shelf=1/slot=3/ppm_holder=1/port=1 for main payload, and 
/rack=1/shelf=1/slot=3/ppm_holder=1/port=1:<Internal Port Number> for internal ports in CFP and CXP. 
For ONS 15454 SONET and SDH, ONS NCS2K SONET, and ONS NCS2K SDH, NEs, when 
10x10G_LC is configured in FANOUT mode, the CXP sublanes provisioned on the NE use 
“/rack=1/shelf=1/slot=3/ppm_holder=11/port=1:<portNum>”  
The provisionable <portNum> values are 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 and 11.  
  Each of the ports (<portNum>) provisioned under ppm_holder=11 is a main PTP. 
2.2.5.4 
Connection Termination Point 
Naming conventions for SONET, SDH, and plesiochronous digital hierarchy (PDH) CTP are defined by 
TMF.814 in a document named objectNaming.html. Prime Optical follows these rules.
