NTP-G68 Create, Download, and Assign Alarm Severity Profiles
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-G46 Log into CTC” task on page 2-25 at the node where you want to create an alarm
profile. If you are already logged in, continue with Step 2 to create, clone, or modify an alarm profile,
or go to Step 3 to download an alarm profile.
Step 2 Complete the “DLP-G121 Create a New or Cloned Alarm Severity Profile” task on page 8-17. This task
clones a current alarm profile, renames the profile, and customizes the new profile.
Step 3 Complete the “DLP-G122 Download an Alarm Severity Profile” task on page 8-20. This task downloads
an alarm severity profile from a CD or a node.
Note After storing a created or downloaded alarm profile, you must go to the node (either by logging
into it or clicking on it from the network view) and activate the profile by applying it to the shelf,
one or more cards, or one or more ports.
Step 4 As necessary, complete the “DLP-G123 Apply Alarm Profiles to Ports” task on page 8-21 or the
“DLP-G124 Apply Alarm Profiles to Cards and Nodes” task on page 8-23.
Step 5 As necessary, complete the “DLP-G125 Delete Alarm Severity Profiles” task on page 8-23.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
Purpose Use this procedure to create a customized alarm profile at the network,
node, or card level. This procedure also provides links to tasks that
describe how to assign custom severities individually to each port, card, or
node, and to delete alarm profiles.
