Configuring Alarms Out

A DB-15 connector on the Cuda 12000 chassis rear panel serves as the

alarms out port. You can configure the Cuda 12000 to send specific types of

alarm signals out this DB-15 connector to an external indication device to

notify the external device that a particular type of fault has occurred. (Refer

to the Cuda 12000 IP Access Switch Installation Guide for in formation about

cabling the DB-15 connector.)

Each fault can generate one or more types of alarm signals. Table8-4 shows

the alarm signals that you can send over the alarms out port and the

associated faults that you can use to trigger these signals:
