Optical Threshold Processor

The Optical Threshold processor is responsible for aggregating the data from the "Optical Xcvr" processor. It takes two stages:

  • Interface-related metrics

  • Lane-related metrics

Every stage contains certain false/true values like tx_power_has_low_warn, voltage_has_high_alarm, etc. true value means the threshold has been exceeded. false - the opposite.

The processor produces for every input interface just one false/true value. It's true if there is at least one input value equal to true in its input corresponding to this interface (including both interface and lanes).
