cVoaDesiredPower

Module: CISCO-VOA-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-VOA-MIB::cVoaDesiredPower

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.262.1.1.1.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: OpticalPowerInDbm

Access: read-write

Description: This object indicates the desired optical power level, after attenuation, at the interface.

This object applies only when the cVoaAttenuationControlMode object is set to 'automatic'. In this mode, the attenuation level is continuously adjusted to maintain the desired power level, after attenuation, as specified by this object.

What is cVoaDesiredPower?

This read-write OpticalPowerInDbm value sets the target optical power level, after attenuation, that the VOA should maintain when cVoaAttenuationControlMode is set to automatic. An administrator configures this to specify the exact output power they want on a fiber link, letting the device handle the attenuation adjustments needed to hit that target. For example, setting this to -3 dBm in automatic mode causes the VOA to continuously adjust attenuation to keep post-attenuation power near -3 dBm.
