5.1.53 Alarm Aggregator Options

The VSTP Alarm Aggregation Options are those configuration values that manages aggregation of vstp alarms . There is a single instance of this resource, which contains each of the individual options that can be retrieved and set. .

The Alarm Aggregator Options can only be updated and cannot be created or deleted.

Select the VSTP, and then Configuration, and then Alarm Aggregator Options page. The page displays the elements on the Alarm Aggregator Options View, Insert, and Edit pages.

Note:

Data Input Notes apply to the Insert and Edit pages only; the View page is read-only.

Table 5-52 Alarm Aggregator Options Elements

Element Description Data Input Notes
   
Association Major Agg Alarm Threshold When the number of Connection (/vstp/connections) failure alarms raised by a single VSTP-MP exceeds this threshold: 1) all individual Connection failure alarms raised to that point are cleared, and 2) a single aggregate Connection failure alarm of major severity is raised by the SOAM against that VSTP-MP. The value of associationMajorAggAlarmThreshold is included in the available alarm budget, multiplied by the number of VSTP-MP in the DSR. So the sum of (associationMajorAggAlarmThreshold * # VSTP-MPs), (linkMajorAggAlarmThreshold * # VSTP-MPs), linksetCriticalAggAlarmThreshold, routeCriticalAggAlarmThreshold, and rspCriticalAggAlarmThreshold cannot exceed alarmBudget.

Default - 100.

[Min,Max] = [1,3000]

Association Critical Agg Alarm Threshold hen the number of Connection (/vstp/connections) failure alarms raised by a single VSTP-MP exceeds this threshold: 1) the already-raised major aggregate Connection failure alarm for that VSTP-MP is cleared, and 2) a single aggregate Connection failure alarm of critical severity is raised by the SOAM against that VSTP-MP. The value of associationCriticalAggAlarmThreshold is not included in the available alarm budget. Set associationCriticalAggAlarmThreshold to zero to prevent entirely the raising of a critical aggregate alarm for Connection failures.

Default - 200. [Min,Max] = [0,3000]
Link Major Agg Alarm Threshold When the number of Link (/vstp/links) failure alarms raised by a single VSTP-MP exceeds this threshold: 1) all individual Link failure alarms raised to that point are cleared, and 2) a single aggregate Link failure alarm of major severity is raised by the SOAM against that VSTP-MP. The value of linkMajorAggAlarmThreshold is included in the available alarm budget, multiplied by the number of VSTP-MP in the DSR. So the sum of (associationMajorAggAlarmThreshold * # VSTP-MPs), (linkMajorAggAlarmThreshold * # VSTP-MPs), linksetCriticalAggAlarmThreshold, routeCriticalAggAlarmThreshold, and rspCriticalAggAlarmThreshold cannot exceed alarmBudget.

Default - 100. [Min,Max] = [1,3000] [A value is required.]
Link Critical Agg Alarm Threshold

When the number of Link (/vstp/links) failure alarms raised by a single VSTP-MP exceeds this threshold: 1) the already-raised major aggregate Link failure alarm for that VSTP-MP is cleared, and 2) a single aggregate Link failure alarm of critical severity is raised by the SOAM against that VSTP-MP. The value of linkCriticalAggAlarmThreshold is not included in the available alarm budget. Set linkCriticalAggAlarmThreshold to zero to prevent entirely the raising of a critical aggregate alarm for Link failures.

Default - 200. [Min,Max] = [0,3000] [A value is required.]
Linkset Critical Agg Alarm Threshold

When the number of Linkset (/vstp/linksets) failure alarms raised by the VSTP exceeds this threshold: 1) all individual Linkset failure alarms raised to that point are cleared, and 2) a single aggregate Linkset failure alarm of critical severity is raised by the SOAM. So the sum of (associationMajorAggAlarmThreshold * # VSTP-MPs), (linkMajorAggAlarmThreshold * # VSTP-MPs), linksetCriticalAggAlarmThreshold, routeCriticalAggAlarmThreshold, and rspCriticalAggAlarmThreshold cannot exceed alarmBudget.

Default - 300.[MIN,MAX] = [Min,Max] = [1,3000] [A value is required.]
Route Critical Agg Alarm Threshold *

When the number of Route (/vstp/routes) failure alarms raised by the VSTP exceeds this threshold: 1) all individual Route failure alarms raised to that point are cleared, and 2) a single aggregate Route failure alarm of critical severity is raised by the SOAM. So the sum of (associationMajorAggAlarmThreshold * # VSTP-MPs), (linkMajorAggAlarmThreshold * # VSTP-MPs), linksetCriticalAggAlarmThreshold, routeCriticalAggAlarmThreshold, and rspCriticalAggAlarmThreshold cannot exceed alarmBudget.

Default - 600. [Min,Max] = [1,3000] [A value is required.]
Rsp Critical Agg Alarm Threshold *

When the number of Remote Signaling Point (/vstp/remotesignalingpoints) failure alarms raised by the VSTP exceeds this threshold: 1) all individual Remote Signaling Point failure alarms raised to that point are cleared, and 2) a single aggregate Remote Signaling Point failure alarm of critical severity is raised by the SOAM. So the sum of (associationMajorAggAlarmThreshold * # VSTP-MPs), (linkMajorAggAlarmThreshold * # VSTP-MPs), linksetCriticalAggAlarmThreshold, routeCriticalAggAlarmThreshold, and rspCriticalAggAlarmThreshold cannot exceed alarmBudget.

Default - 600. [Min,Max] = [1,3000] [A value is required.]
