Chapter 2 Alarm Troubleshooting
Trouble Notifications
Facility (port) alarms also follow a hierarchy; lower-ranking alarms are closed by higher-ranking alarms.
The facility alarm hierarchy used in the systems is shown in Table 2-10.
Near-end failures and far-end failures follow different hierarchies. Near-end failures stand according to
whether they are for the entire signal (LOS, loss of frame alignment [LOF]), facility (MS-AIS), path
(AU-AIS, etc.) or VC (TU-AIS, etc.). The full hierarchy for near-end failures is shown in Table 2-11.
This table is taken from Telcordia GR-253-CORE.
