Alarm
Origination to
OSS Numbers
Indicates one of four options for alarm origination (neither):
■ If “both,” all Major and Minor alarms result in an automatic call
to both OSS telephone numbers. Both OSS telephone
numbers must be administered.
■ If “first-only,” all Major and Minor alarms result in an automatic
call to the first OSS number only. The switch does not call the
second OSS telephone number even if the number is
administered. The first OSS telephone number must be
administered
■ If “neither,” alarm origination does not take place. Warning
alarms are not reported to either numbers.
■ If “second-as-backup,” all Major and Minor alarms result in an
automatic call to the first OSS telephone number. If calling the
first OSS telephone number fails four attempts, the switch
starts to call the second OSS telephone number as a backup
until calling the first OSS telephone number becomes
successful. Both OSS telephone numbers must be
administered.
Before Release 5, the name of this field is “Alarm Origination
Activated.” If Alarm Origination is deactivated, both Cleared Alarm
Notification and Restart Notification are disabled, even though
they may still be activated in the administration.
Cleared Alarm
Notification
Enables the switch to originate a call to the OSS and send an
alarm resolution message whenever all previously reported Major
and Minor alarms are resolved. Alarm Origination must be
activated in order for Cleared Alarm Notification to work. (no)
Restart
Notification
Enables the switch to originate a call to the OSS and report any
system restarts caused by problems with the switch.
Suspension
Threshold
The threshold for suspending Cleared Alarm Notification. Some
problems may cause alarms to be generated and then resolved
repeatedly. To detect these problems (by not sending additional
Cleared Alarm notifications to indicate a problem- free system),
the switch suspends Cleared Alarm Notification when it has
reported this administrable number of Cleared Alarm notifications
in a 24 hour period. A suspended Cleared Alarm Notification is
only enabled again with a successfully completed “logoff”
command, a system reset, or when the threshold is changed. This
field is irrelevant if Cleared Alarm Notification or Alarm Origination
is disabled. The possible range of threshold values is between 1
and 15.
Test Remote
Access Port
Specifies whether testing of the remote access port on the SYSAM
circuit pack is enabled. This field should be set to “yes” whenever
there is an INADS line connected to the switch and there is a
maintenance contract in effect so that alarm origination capability
is maintained.
