TL1 event exerciser

With one TL1 command (RTRV-NE-AOMSG:[TID]:[ALL]:CTAG) in Site

Manager’s TL1 Command Builder, a UPC level 4 account user can request an output of all possible TL1 autonomous messages (including alarms and events). The output has exact wording for autonomous messages and is available at both the SPx and NPx.

Note: Requesting an output from the SPx will generate all autonomous messages possible from the SPx. Requesting an output from the NPx will generate all autonomous messages possible from the NPx.

Execution of the TL1 command will not impact traffic currently on the system and will not impact OAM performance on a separate network element.

TL1 event / log feature

Network elements will track configuration changes, unsuccessful TL1 command attempts, and shelf inventory changes. Autonomous events (DBCHG, LOG, and INVENTORY) display after the TL1 return code. A file containing the history of all three event types is updated with the latest DBCHG, LOG, and INVENTORY events each time an event occurs. This file will survive restarts and circuit pack pulls and is retrievable by the user. The DBCHG and LOG events apply to both the network processor and shelf processor circuit packs.

Note 1: All information is stored regardless of whether broadcasting is provisioned as ‘ON’ or ‘OFF’.

Note 2: Event broadcasting is set to ‘OFF’ by default.
