Chapter 2 Alarm Troubleshooting

2.7.227 SWMTXMOD-WORK

Default Severity: Critical (CR), Service-Affecting (SA)

SONET Logical Object: EQPT

The Switching Matrix Module Failure on Working Slot alarm is raised by the 15310-CL-CTX or CTX2500 card when a logic component internal to the card’s cross connect is OOF with a traffic card in the system. In this case, the alarm is raised against the traffic card slot.

Clear the SWMTXMOD-WORK Alarm

Step 1 Complete the “Soft- or Hard-Reset an Ethernet or Electrical Card in CTC” procedure on page 2-153for the controller card. For the LED behavior, see the “2.9.2 Typical Card LED Activity During Reset” section on page 2-147.

Step 2 Verify that the reset is complete and error-free and that no new related alarms appear in CTC. A green

ACT/SBY LED indicates an active card. An amber ACT/SBY LED indicates a standby card.

Step 3 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) in order to report a Service-Affecting (SA) problem.

2.7.228 SWTOPRI

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

SONET Logical Objects: EXT-SREF, NE-SREF

The Synchronization Switch to Primary Reference condition occurs when the ONS 15310-CL or ONS 15310-MA switches to the primary timing source (reference 1). The system uses three ranked timing references. The timing references are typically two BITS-level or line-level sources and an internal reference.

Note SWTOPRI is an informational condition. It does not require troubleshooting.

2.7.229 SWTOSEC

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

SONET Logical Objects: EXT-SREF, NE-SREF

The Synchronization Switch to Secondary Reference condition occurs when the ONS 15310-CL or ONS 15310-MA has switched to a secondary timing source (reference 2).

Clear the SWTOSEC Condition

Step 1 To clear the condition, clear alarms related to failures of the primary source, such as the “SYNCPRI” alarm on page 2-135.
