Chapter 2 Alarm Troubleshooting

2.7.16 APS-PRIM-FAC

2.7.16 APS-PRIM-FAC

Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA)

Logical Objects: OCN

The Optimized 1+1 APS Invalid Primary Section condition occurs on OC-N ports in an optimized 1+1 protection system if there is an APS status switch between the primary and secondary facilities to identify which port is primary.

Note APS-PRIM-FAC is an informational condition and does not require troubleshooting. If the APS switch is related to other alarms, troubleshoot these alarms as necessary using the procedures in this chapter.

Clear the APS-PRIM-FAC Condition

Step 1 This condition clears when the card receives a valid primary section indication (1 or 2). Correct the selection if necessary.

Step 2 If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447).

2.7.17 APS-PRIM-SEC-MISM

Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)

SONET Logical Object: OCN

The Optimized 1+1 APS Primary Section Mismatch condition occurs on OC-N ports in an optimized 1+1 protection system if there is a mismatch between the primary section of the local node facility and the primary section of the remote-node facility.

Clear the APS-PRIM-SEC-MISM Alarm

Step 1 Ensure that the local node and remote-node ports are correctly provisioned the same way. For more information about optimized 1+1 configurations, refer to the “Turn Up Node” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15310-CL and Cisco ONS 15310-MA Procedure Guide.

Step 2 If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447).

2.7.18 AS-CMD

Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)

SONET Logical Objects: BPLANE, CE100T, DS1, DS3, EC1, EQPT, NE, OCN, PWR

DWDM Logical Objects: PPM, SHELF
