The SS7/Sigtran > Configuration > Local Congestion Options page is a view-only list of the congestion management configuration parameters. There are two sets of parameters:
- The parameters that define the maximum capacities of the resources that are monitored by congestion management. The system automatically calculates the alarm onset and abatement thresholds from these maximum capacities. These parameters are the first nine parameters listed on the page (through SCTP Aggregate Association Writer Queue Utilization).
- The parameters that define the message treatment percentages for each MP congestion level. There are nine view-only configuration parameters; three for each MP congestion level (labeled CL1, CL2, and CL3).
Thresholds for minor, major, and critical alarms are based on a fixed percentage of the maximum configured value in the Local Congestion Options table:
