Hi all,
one of our customer have two 7600 with 2XOC48 pos interface connected
over dwdm protected link.

They use bgp over those link, while testing dwdm protection with
manually issued fault on wdm link, they noticed an up/down of about ten
second on pos interface.
I suggest to use *pos delay triggers line n* on link to avoid interface
up/down as consequence of micro line los triggered by wdm protection.
I have some doubt about carrier-delay.
If a low carrier delay is certain useful with igp i'm not sure it's a
good choice for bgp.

Any hints ?
Regards,
Gianluca
