TmAsnBlkNotDown

Measurement Group: Association Usage

Measurement Dimension: Arrayed (per association)

Measurement Type: Duration

Description: The number of seconds during the reporting interval during which the association was in the Blocked administrative state but was not in ASP-DOWN state. When the association is Blocked, the desired protocol state is ASP-DOWN. This measurement indicates the amount of time during the reporting interval for which the association was not in the desired protocol state.

Collection Interval: 30 min

Peg Condition: Time is accumulated for this measurement during the collection interval when all of the following are true:
  • The association is in the Blocked administrative state.
  • The association is not in the ASP-DOWN protocol state.

Measurement Scope: NE, Server

Recovery:

  1. The value of this measurement should be zero. A non-zero value indicates that the association was set to the Blocked administrative state, but was not able to reach the desired protocol state due to some problem. You can view the Association status from the GUI main menu under SS7/Sigtran>Maintenance>Associations.
  2. Verify that the Adjacent Server that represents the far-end of the association is configured with the correct IP address. You can check the configuration from the GUI main menu under SS7/Sigtran>Configuration>Adjacent Servers.
  3. Verify that the remote port configured for the association correctly identifies the port that the SG is listening on for SCTP connections. You can check the configuration from the GUI main menu under SS7/Sigtran>Configuration>Associations>Configure.
  4. Verify the IP network connectivity between the MP server and the SG.
  5. If the SG must be configured to connect to the MP server’s IP address and port, verify that the SG configuration matches the association configuration. You can check the configuration from the GUI main menu under SS7/Sigtran>Configuration>Associations>Configure.
