I would say you want to check all the optics and light levels
along the way at each hop to verify things are working as expected,
including the the light levels out of the passive mux. I have seen bad
ports on an AWG/passive mux before, so the more you can test/loop to
figure out what is working and what isn't will be best.
make sure that if there's any payload options thos eare set
correctly, be they otu or odu for your 100g signal.
Have you logged into the FPC and dumped the i2c to verify the
optic tuning is staying, or is it tuned with an external box, eg:
flexbox?
