Name: GneTransportAlarm
Type: TransportAlarm (71)
Probable cause: User_Defined (558)
Severity: Variable or indeterminate
Object Type (class):
NetworkElement
Domain: netw
Implicitly cleared (self-clearing): No
This user-definable alarm is raised
against a generic NE when the
5620 SAM receives a trap from the
generic NE that is mapped to the
alarm in a generic NE alarm
catalogue. The alarm mapping
defines the Probable cause, Severity,
and Implicitly cleared values, and
optionally contains an extension that
is appended to the Name value.
Name: InBandManagementConnectionDown
Type: communicationsAlarm (4)
Probable cause:
managementConnectionDown (111)
Severity: Critical
Object Type (class):
NodeDiscoveryControl
Domain: netw
Implicitly cleared (self-clearing): No
The alarm is raised when the
5620 SAM cannot reach a managed
NE using the ping function over an
in-band connection.
Name: InconsistenciesOnNode
Type: integrityViolation (85)
Probable cause: inconsistenciesOnNode
(813)
Severity: Warning
Object Type (class):
NetworkElement
Domain: netw
Implicitly cleared (self-clearing): Yes
The alarm is raised when a device
detects one or more configuration
inconsistencies. On a 9500 MPR, this
can be caused by cross-connect
creation failure during service
creation.

interface or underlying resource
fails, as indicated by an interface
compositeState attribute value of
failed or underlyingResourceFailed.
Name: InvalidBOFAddress
Type: communicationsAlarm (4)
Probable cause: invalidBOF (847)
Severity: Warning
Object Type (class):
NodeDiscoveryControl
Domain: netw
Implicitly cleared (self-clearing): No
The alarm is raised during a network
topology rescan in which the 5620
SAM does not find a previously

from one type of management to the
other.
