The architecture and mode of the APS group. The
values mean:
onePlusOne
The 1+1 architecture permanently bridges the working
line to the protection line.
oneToN
The 1:n architecture allows one protection channel to
protect up to n working channels. When a fault is detected
on one of the n working channels that channel is bridged
over the protection channel.
Note: onePlusOne and oneToN are mutually exclusive.
revertive
When the condition that caused a switch to the protection
line has been cleared the signal is switched back to the
working line. If this bit is clear it indicates a
non-revertive system which remains on the protection line
until another switch request is received.
bidirectional
The bi-directional mode provides protection in both
directions.
If this bit is clear it indicates unidirectional mode which
provides protection in one direction. The default for 1:n is
bidirectional. The default for 1+1 is unidirectional.
extraTrafficAllowed
Extra traffic may be carried on the protection channel in
a 1:n architecture if this flag is set. It may be necessary
to disable this in order to interwork with other SONET
network elements that don't support extra traffic.
This object may not be modified if the associated
apsConfigRowStatus object is equal to active(1).
