Operations Support Parameters
Product
Identification
This is a 10-digit number starting with 1 that identifies the switch to an
Operations Support System (OSS), for example, INADS.
First OSS
Telephone
Number
The first telephone number that the switch uses to report alarms to, for
example, INADS or Trouble Tracker. The number must be obtained
from the National Customer Support Center (NCSC) or the TSC. # and *
are not allowed in the telephone number.
Abbrev Alarm
Report
Enables the Abbreviated Alarm Report feature for the first OSS. (yes)
Second OSS
Telephone
Number
The second telephone number that the switch uses to report alarms to,
for example, INADS or DEFINITY SNMP. The number must be obtained
from the National Customer Support Center (NCSC) or the TSC. # and *
are not allowed in the telephone number.
Abbrev Alarm
Report
Enables the Abbreviated Alarm Report feature for the second OSS. (no)
Alarm
Origination to
OSS Numbers
Indicates one of four options for alarm origination (neither):
■ If this field is set to “both,” all Major and Minor alarms result in an
automatic call to both OSS telephone numbers. Both OSS
telephone numbers must be administered.
■ If this field is set to “first-only,” all Major and Minor alarms result in
an automatic call to the first OSS number only. The switch does not
call the second OSS telephone number even if the number is
administered. The first OSS telephone number must be
administered
■ If this field is set to “neither,” alarm origination does not take place.
Warning alarms are not reported to either numbers.
■ If this field is set to “second-as-backup,” all Major and Minor alarms
result in an automatic call to the first OSS telephone number. If
calling the first OSS telephone number fails four attempts, the
switch starts to call the second OSS telephone number as a
backup until calling the first OSS telephone number becomes
successful. Both OSS telephone numbers must be administered.
Before Release 5, the name of this field is “Alarm Origination
Activated.” If Alarm Origination is deactivated, both Cleared Alarm
Notification and Restart Notification are disabled, even though they
may still be activated in the administration.
Cleared
Alarm
Notification
Enables the switch to originate a call to the OSS and send an alarm
resolution message whenever all previously reported Major and Minor
alarms are resolved. Alarm Origination must be activated in order for
Cleared Alarm Notification to work. (no)
Restart
Notification
Enables the switch to originate a call to the OSS and report any system
restarts caused by problems with the switch. Activate Alarm Origination
for Restart Notification to operate.
