DLP- A521 Modify Alarm, Condition, and History Filtering Parameters

Step 3 In the Show Severity area, click the check boxes for the severities [Critical (CR), Major (MJ), Minor (MN), or Not-Alarmed (NA)] you want to be reported at the network level. Leave severity check boxes deselected (unchecked) to prevent those severities from appearing.

When alarm filtering is disabled, all alarms show.

Step 4 In the Time area, click the Show alarms between time limits check box to enable it. Click the up and down arrows in the From Date, To Date, and Time fields to modify what period of alarms are shown.

To modify filter parameters for conditions, continue with Step 5. If you do not need to modify them, continue with Step 6.

Step 5 Click the filter dialog box Conditions tab (Figure 22-7).

When filtering is enabled, conditions in the Show list are visible and conditions in the Hide list are invisible.

•To move conditions individually from the Show list to the Hide list, click the > button.

•To move conditions individually from the Hide list to the Show list, click the < button.

•To move conditions collectively from the Show list to the Hide list, click the >> button.

•To move conditions collectively from the Hide list to the Show list, click the << button.

Note Conditions include alarms.

Step 6 Click Apply and OK.

Alarm and condition filtering parameters are enforced when alarm filtering is enabled (see the “DLP-A225 Enable Alarm Filtering” task on page 19-17), and the parameters are not enforced when alarm filtering is disabled (see the “DLP-A227 Disable Alarm Filtering” task on page 19-18).

ONS 15454 specifications

Cisco Systems ONS 15454 is a versatile optical networking platform designed to enable service providers and enterprises to deploy and manage robust optical networks efficiently. The ONS 15454 serves as a cornerstone in the evolution of transport networks, featuring various technologies that meet the increasing demand for bandwidth and service quality.

One of the standout features of the ONS 15454 is its support for multiple service types, including TDM, Ethernet, and Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM). This capability allows service providers to maximize network resources while delivering a wide range of services, from traditional voice to high-speed data and video.

The ONS 15454 leverages Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology, enabling the transmission of multiple data streams over a single optical fiber. This effectively expands the network's capacity without the need for additional infrastructure, a crucial benefit in today's ever-growing data landscape. The system supports a variety of transponder modules, allowing for flexible scaling and seamless upgrades as bandwidth requirements increase.

Scalability is another key characteristic of the ONS 15454. With its modular architecture, it accommodates a range of interfaces and line cards, making it easier to tailor deployments to specific customer needs. This modularity not only facilitates upgrades but also simplifies maintenance, minimizing downtime and operational costs.

The platform also features advanced management capabilities through Cisco's Optical Network Management system. This allows for real-time monitoring, provisioning, and troubleshooting, ensuring network reliability and performance. The intuitive interface and comprehensive reporting tools enable operators to gain insights into network operations, improving decision-making processes.

Furthermore, the ONS 15454 is built to support optical layer protection features, enhancing network resilience. Technologies such as Automatic Protection Switching (APS) and Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC) ensure that connectivity is maintained even in the event of a failure, crucial for mission-critical applications.

In conclusion, the Cisco ONS 15454 is a powerful optical networking solution that combines flexibility, scalability, and advanced management features. Its support for various services and technologies positions it as an essential asset for organizations looking to build a future-proof network capable of handling increasing data traffic while maintaining high service standards.
