A.4.7 Alarm

The following table lists the most common alarm messages.

If there is an alarm on an STS/VC4 CTP utilizing all ports of a DS1/E1 card, the alarm is reported with the containing PTP as port 127. If an STS/VC4 SNC exists with one of the drop CTPs of the SNC using all ports on a DS1/E1 card, and if there is an alarm on the STS CTP, CTM reports the port number of the containing PTP as 127.
