MAPS monitoring categories
MAPS enables you to monitor the independent components that are listed in this section by
creating policies. Policies are a series of rules that define thresholds for measures and actions to
take when a threshold is triggered.
Port monitoring category
The Port category monitors port statistics and takes action based on the configured thresholds and
actions. You can configure thresholds per port type and apply the configuration to all ports of the
specified type. Configurable ports include physical ports, E_Ports, optical F_Ports (FOP_Ports),
copper F_Ports (FCU_Ports), and Virtual E_Ports (VE_Ports).
The Port category also monitors the physical aspects of an SFP transceiver, such as voltage,
current, RXP, TXP, and state changes in physical ports, E_Ports, FOP_Ports, and FCU_Ports.
Table 111 lists measures in the Port category and describes each measure.
FCIP Circuit • CIR_STATE — FCIP circuit state changes
• CIR_UTIL — FCIP circuit utilization
• CIR_PKTLOSS — FCIP packet loss
• PKTLOSS — FCIP tunnel packet loss

• RTT — Round-trip time of the circuit
• Jitter — The variance in round-trip time of the circuit
