Alarm Levels

The system has the following two alarm levels:

Major alarm (amber LED)—Any state that indicates a system malfunction that can immediately result in a service outage or that indicates a system problem that can seriously degrade service. Examples include:

System overheating because of high ambient air temperature, an air intake or exhaust blockage, or fan failure

A power supply module outage

SPE memory parity or disk read/write errors

Loss of an Ethernet interface because of an equipment or Ethernet facility failure

Loss of signal or errors on a T1 or higher trunk because of a local or remote equipment failure

Minor alarm (yellow LED)—Any state that indicates a system abnormality that does not seriously degrade service, but that may affect the network or equipment, such as a port that is disabled or otherwise out of service.
