DS1 endpoint and send a BLUE ALARM message to the maintenance software.
When the Blue alarm is confirmed, the maintenance software places all trunks or
ports of the UDS1 Interface circuit pack into the out-of-service state. The inquiry
test will be run every 10 minutes until the Blue alarm is cleared.
The UDS1 Interface circuit pack takes 3 seconds to recognize and report a Blue
alarm and 16 seconds to recognize and report the resolution of a Blue alarm.
When the Blue alarm is cleared, the UDS1 Interface circuit pack stops
transmitting the Yellow alarm and places the trunks or ports back into the service
state before the Blue alarm occurs.
Line Loopback Alarm
The Line Loopback (LLB) is used by the remote DS1 endpoint to put the switch
DS1 into a loopback mode. When the switch DS1 is in the LLB mode, the arriving
bit pattern is regenerated and sent back. Line Loopback (LLB) Alarm is activated
when the in-band activate LLB bit pattern has been arriving continuously for 5
seconds on the DS1 line. LLB is deactivated when the in-band deactivate LLB bit
pattern has been arriving continuously for 5 seconds on the DS1 line.
Since LLB is a maintenance condition rendering all DS0 channels unavailable for
signaling or bearer traffic, maintenance software treats this the same as a Blue
Alarm.
Payload Loopback Alarm
The Payload Loopback (PLB) is used by the remote DS1 endpoint to put the
switch DS1 into a loopback mode. PLB Alarm is activated when a network
protocol activate bit pattern arrives over the 4Kbps ESF data link on the DS1 line.
PLB is deactivated when a network protocol deactivate bit pattern arrives over
the 4Kbps ESF data link on the DS1 line.
Since PLB is a maintenance condition rendering all DS0 channels unavailable for
signaling or bearer traffic, maintenance software treats this the same as a Blue
Alarm.
