Viewing Alarms and Events

This chapter describes how to use the Cisco ONS 15200 web interface to view alarms and events for the ONS 15200 system.

The CLIP Active alarms screen provides a list of active alarms for the selected Client Layer Interface Port (CLIP) module (Figure 4-1). The CLIP Active alarms screen has two columns: Name and Status. Table 4-1 describes the alarms that can appear in the Name column.

Figure 4-1: CLIP Active alarms screen

Table 4-1: Alarms

Alarm Name	Definition
DWDM_ARXPOWER (protected only)	Indicates that the power input on the A-side of the ONS 15200 network is outside the acceptable range.
DWDM_BRXPOWER (protected only)	Indicates that the power input on the B-side of the ONS 15200 network is outside the acceptable range.
DWDM_BRXPOWER (nonprotected only)	Indicates that the power input on the ONS 15200 network is outside the acceptable range.
DWDM_PELTIERCURRENT	Indicates that the Peltier current of the selected CLIP module is outside the acceptable range.
DWDM_LASERTEMP	Indicates that the temperature of the laser transmitting to the ONS 15200 network is outside the acceptable range.
DWDM_LASERBIAS	Indicates that the value of the current used to control laser modulation is not within the specified range.
CLIENT_RXPOWER	Indicates that the power input from the client equipment is outside the acceptable range.
CLIENT_LASERBIAS	Indicates that the value of the current used to control laser modulation is not within the specified range.
ENVIRON_BOARDTEMP	Indicates that the temperature on the surface of the CLIP module circuit board is outside the acceptable range.
QPPA (protected only)	Indicates a proprietary protocol error on the A-side of the network.
QPPB (protected only)	Indicates a proprietary protocol error on the B-side of the network.
QPP (nonprotected only)	Indicates a proprietary protocol error.
CAN	Indicates an error on the CAN bus.
POWER1	Indicates that the PS-1 input is outside the acceptable range.
POWER2	Indicates that the PS-2 input is outside the acceptable range.

Table 4-2 describes the values displayed in the Status column. LEDs located next to the status indicate the severity of the alarm.

Table 4-2: Alarm Status Parameter Definitions

Alarm Name	Definition
Highalarm	A CLIP module recorded an event in which an upper alarm threshold was crossed.
Lowalarm	A CLIP module recorded an event in which a lower alarm threshold was crossed.
Highwarning	A CLIP module recorded an event in which an upper warning threshold was crossed.
Lowwarning	A CLIP module recorded an event in which a lower warning threshold was crossed.

Table 4-3 describes the LEDs beside the status.

Table 4-3: Alarm Status Color Definitions

Alarm Name	Definition
Red	Critical or major alarm—The condition reported by the alarm affects traffic.
Yellow	Minor alarm or warning—The condition reported by the alarm could affect the quality of service, but does not threaten the continuity of service.

4.2 CLIP Event Log

The CLIP Eventlog screen displays a list of events that have occurred in relation to the selected CLIP module (Figure 4-2).

Figure 4-2: CLIP Eventlog screen

Table 4-4 describes the information provided on the CLIP Eventlog screen.

Table 4-4: CLIP Event Log Parameters

Alarm Name	Definition
Date	Displays the date (yyyy-mm-dd) where the selected event occurred.
Time	Displays the time (hh:mm:ss) where the selected event occurred.
CL	Class displays an LED indicating the severity of the alarm: E —Error (red) W—Warning (yellow) I—Informational (blank)
Code	Displays the internal code assigned to the event.
User	Displays the user name of the person that performed the selected activity. Activities initiated automatically are logged as system.
Source	Displays the name of the module where the activity was initiated.
Description	Displays a description of the event.

4.3 System Alarms Screen

The system Active alarms screen provides a summary of active alarms for all CLIP modules (Figure 4-3).

4.4 System Event Log

The system Eventlog screen displays a list of events that have occurred in the system (Figure 4-4).
