server signal fail (path, low-order)

Description

The NE shall declare an SSF-V failure against a VC3 or VC12 if one or more of the following defects persists for the alarm processing delay period ±0.5 seconds. Refer to SET-ATTR-ALM:almdel in Alcatel-Lucent 1850 Transport Service Switch (TSS-5) TL1 Command Guide for MSPP.

Note: While a typically default alarm delay is 2.5 (±0.5) seconds, the NE default alarm delay is 2 seconds. Upon declaring and the failure, the NE sends an alarm message to the appropriate OS(s). The NE clears an SSF-V failure coincident with clearing the LOS, LOF, MS-AIS, AU-AIS, AU-LOP, HP-UNEQ, TU-AIS or TU-LOP, alarm. After clearing the failure, the NE also sends an alarm message to the appropriate OS(s).

Description

server signal fail

Likely Cause

The SSF-V alarm(s) is declared coincident with a inc. STMN LOS , inc. STMN LOF, inc. STMN LOS, inc. STMN MS-AIS , inc. VCN AU-AIS, inc. VCN AU-LOP, inc. VCN HP-UNEQ, inc. VCN TU-AIS, or inc. VCN TU-LOP alarm.

An unprotected STM-n line/VC3/VC12 Ring Channel (Path) has a coincident LOS, LOF, MS-AIS, AU-AIS, AU-LOP, HP-UNEQ, TU-AIS, TU-LOP alarm: MJ (SA).

A protected STM-n line/VC3/VC12 Ring Channel (Path) has a coincident LOS, LOF, MS-AIS, AU-AIS, AU-LOP, HP-UNEQ, TU-AIS, TU-LOP alarm: MN (NSA).

Visible Indication

LOS, LOF, MS-AIS, AU-LOP: Lighted CR/MJ or MN/ABN LED on SYSCTL faceplate and a flashing FAULT LED on the failed circuit pack.

HP-UNEQ, AU-AIS, TU-AIS: Lighted CR/MJ or MN/ABN LED on SYSCTL faceplate.

Action

In the alarm list, find the associated inc. STMN LOS , inc. STMN LOF, inc. STMN LOS, inc. STMN MS-AIS , inc. VCN AU-AIS, inc. VCN AU-LOP, inc. VCN HP-UNEQ, inc. VCN TU-AIS, or inc. VCN TU-LOP alarm, and proceed to Procedure 5-36: Clear "inc. OCN/STMN" conditions/alarms and/or Procedure 5-38: Clear "inc. STSN/VCN" conditions/alarms.
