Abstract
In an embodiment, a system for accelerated monitoring of optical transceivers includes a monitoring unit included in a port interface module of a network switch. The monitoring unit is configured to receive a monitoring configuration, obtain status information from a plurality of optical transceivers connected to the port interface module at an instance based on the monitoring configuration, and store the obtained status information and at least one associated timestamp in a memory. The memory is included in the port interface module and configured to provide the stored status information to a requestor external to the port interface module.
