0266 - REPT-LINK-CGST: Congestion level 2 to 3

The congestion on a link has risen to level 3. That is, the amount of MSU traffic on the signaling link has reached the onset level defined for congestion level 3. This usually indicates the node is under provisioned.

Example

RLGHNCXA21W 00-12-07 12:01:43 EST  EAGLE 35.0.0 
0014.0266   SLK 1205,A nc00027  REPT-LINK-CGST: congestion level 2 to 3
             SLC=03   FECLLI=testclli            CLASS=SAAL

Note:

The Class parameter in the example is optional.

Alarm Level: No alarm condition. The message is informational only.

Recovery

1. Since congestion usually peaks and subsides quickly, a measurements report should be printed to understand what SS7 events took place.
   Use the command rept-meas to obtain a report.

   Note:

   The measurements collection must first be turned on so measurements can be collected. If measurements are not turned on, no report will be available. Refer to the Measurements Manual for traffic measurements information.
2. Ensure that there are enough links in the linkset based on the traffic load.
