Port Alarms
This section provides tables of alarms for the following types of ports:
• Optical Port Alarms
• Ethernet Port Alarms
• Gigabit Ethernet Port Alarms
Optical Port Alarms
The tables in this section apply to all Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) OC and Packet over
SONET/SDH (POS) cards.

1. This alarm is suppressed if the system has a single controller card and has been configured using the system alarm command (in global
configuration mode) with the redundancy suppress construct.
Note If a major or critical alarm occurs on a POS or an ATM port and that port is a member of an
Automatic Protection Switching (APS) group, either as a protected or a working port, the
alarm is downgraded to a minor alarm because the service is protected by the redundant port.
For configuration and management information for APS ports and groups, see the “APS
Configuration” chapter in the Ports, Circuits, and Tunnels Configuration Guide for the
SmartEdge OS; for operations information, see the “Card, Port, and Channel Operations”
chapter in the Ports, Circuits, and Tunnels Operations Guide for the SmartEdge OS. The
severity levels in the table are the default levels, not the degraded levels.
