Port monitoring device and port monitoring method

摘要

An OCM monitors a plurality of SW ports each receiving an optical signal by switching the SW ports. The OCM includes a PD, a control circuit, and an arithmetic circuit. The PD detects an optical power level on wavelengths spaced at predetermined intervals in each of the SW ports to be monitored. The control circuit determines, in each of the SW ports, whether arithmetic processing using a waveform estimated from the optical power level is executed, depending on presence or absence of a change in the optical power level detected by the PD. The arithmetic circuit performs the arithmetic processing by using the waveform when the control circuit determines execution of the arithmetic processing.
