cienaCesPortXcvrFecMode
Module: CIENA-CES-PORT-XCVR-MIB
OID (symbolic): CIENA-CES-PORT-XCVR-MIB::cienaCesPortXcvrFecMode
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.9.1.1.1.1.36
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: This represents the transceiver's FEC Mode. gfec means generic forward error correction, efec means enhanced forward error correction.
What is cienaCesPortXcvrFecMode?
Choosing enhanced FEC over generic FEC, or over no FEC at all, trades a small amount of added latency for stronger error-correction capability, so an admin provisioning a long, noisy, or otherwise marginal optical span should prefer efec here to maximize achievable reach and tolerance for signal degradation, while a short, clean, latency-sensitive link might intentionally run with FEC set to none. For example, setting this to 'efec' on a long metro DWDM span extends the usable reach compared to 'gfec,' at the cost of a few extra microseconds of processing latency.
