You can also administer the options on a system-wide basis for Minor off-board
DS1 Interface circuit pack alarms.
Alarm reporting options information in the Alarm Reporting Options Form is
considered translation data and, thus, is preserved through all levels of restart.
This feature affects the alarming of the MOs listed below. Neither the trunk nor the
station category applies to alarms raised on the common portion of the circuit
pack.
In all cases, if the option associated with the alarm type is set to “n,” the alarm
report is dropped. All error information about the alarm is intact, but there is no
record of an alarm and no LEDs light on the port circuit pack, the Maintenance
circuit pack, the attendant console, or alarm reporting station to indicate a
problem.
If the option is set to “warning” or “report,” port circuit pack LEDs and LEDs on
the Maintenance circuit pack are affected the same as normal warning alarms.
The default parameters are as follows:
■ Downgrade all station, trunk (except on-board trunk alarms), and Minor
DS1-BD alarms to warning alarms.
■ On-board Major and Minor trunk alarms, should continue to raise alarms
and report to INADS.
Station MOs Affected By This Command
NOTE:
Although alarms on these MOs may appear as warnings, the alarms should
be investigated with user-reported problems.
■ Analog Lines (ANL-LINE, ANL-NE-L, ANL-16-L)
■ Digital Lines (DIG-LINE)
■ Hybrid Lines (HYB-LINE)
■ MET Lines (MET-LINE)
■ ISDN-BRI Lines (BRI-PORT, BRI-SET)
Trunk maintenance is characterized by an escalation of a Minor alarm to a Major
alarm if more than 75 percent of the members of the trunk group are alarmed. If
the option for the trunk category is set to “warning,” “minor,” “report,” or “no,” this
no longer happens. Maintenance removes an individual trunk member
out-of-service according to the normal criteria used for Major and Minor alarms.
