This check monitors

- the input power

- the output power

transmitted by the transceiver. The powers are reported in dBm. Each of these powers are then compared to the alarm tresholds reported by the device. The check returns CRIT if either of the powers falls below or rises above an alarm treshold. Otherwise, the check returns OK. The device itself reports the power in microwatt, which is then converted to dBm.

This check supports the Ciena 5171 Packetwave Platform and 5142 Service Aggregation Switch.

The relevant MIBs are WWP-LEOS-PORT-XCVR-MIB and CIENA-CES-PORT-XCVR-MIB.
