The system provides an alarm report that lists all the active alarms and standing conditions, including a remote alarm status feature that summarizes alarms in other NEs in an alarm group.
A description of the condition (for example, controller failure, incoming signal failure, synchronization hardware, etc.) is included in the report along with a time stamp indicating when the condition was detected, its severity, and whether it is service affecting or not. The option to display specified subsets of alarm conditions is provided (for example, critical alarms only).
Status conditions include:
Manually initiated abnormal conditions (for example, forced switch, loopbacks, system testing)
Incoming AIS detected
A description of the status condition (for example, DS1 loopback active, DS3 facility loopback active, and so on) is included in the report along with a time stamp indicating when the condition began.
