To create a GNE alarm catalog
Steps
1 |
Choose Administration→Generic NE Manager from the NFM-P main menu. The Generic NE Manager form opens. |
2 |
Click Create and choose Generic NE Alarm Catalogue. The Generic NE Alarm Catalogue (Create) form opens. |
3 |
Configure the required parameters. |
4 |
If required, perform Step 3 to Step 12 of To create a transform function for a GNE alarm catalog to create a transform function for the catalog. |
5 |
Click on the Mappings tab and click Create. The Generic NE Alarm Mapping (Create) form opens. |
6 |
Configure the required parameters. |
7 |
Perform one of the following: |
8 |
Perform one of the following:
|
9 |
Perform one of the following:
|
10 |
Configure the varbind positions for specific objects on a GNE in the Alarmed Object panel: Note: In order to configure the System Address Varbind Position and Interface Index Varbind Position parameters, you must set the Alarm Name parameter to GNE MTIE Alarm. |
11 |
Click OK and confirm your actions. The form closes. |
12 |
Repeat Step 5 to Step 11 to create an additional raising alarm mapping, if required. |
13 |
Perform one of the following:
|
14 |
Select a raising alarm mapping and click Create Clearing. The Generic NE Alarm Mapping form opens. Note: A raising alarm mapping is indicated by the word Raising in the Mapping Type list column. You can create a clearing alarm mapping only when the corresponding raising alarm is in the same alarm catalog. You can associate a clearing alarm mapping with only one raising alarm mapping. You cannot create a clearing mapping for a mapping that uses a transform function to define the alarm severity; you must use a transform function to clear an alarm when the alarm severity is defined using a transform function. |
15 |
Configure the required parameters: Note: A static clearing alarm mapping inherits the following values from the associated raising alarm:
See To create a GNE alarm catalog for information about modifying the Alarm Name or Probable Cause value. The explicit FDN Extension and Additional Text values can differ from the values in the raising mapping, but the generated text strings must match. For example, if the object name is in varbind 2 of the raising trap and in varbind 3 of the clearing trap, the parameter values name different varbinds but the script output is identical. The alarm severity in a clearing alarm mapping is set to Cleared and cannot be changed. |
16 |
If required, specify a dynamic alarm name: |
17 |
If required, specify a dynamic probable cause: |
18 |
Click OK and confirm your actions. The form closes. |
19 |
Repeat Step 14 to Step 18 to create additional clearing alarm mappings, if required. |
