Configuring Cards

See the following chapters for detailed information on configuring specific cards:

•2616RC – Chapter 5, “Configuring the 2616RC Card” on page 67

•3196RC – Chapter 7, “Configuring the 3196RC Card” on page 105

•6511RC – Chapter 8, “Configuring the 6511RC Card” on page 126

Note Although this guide supplies basic information for configuring cards in the FS6300 NMS, you may also want to refer to the card’s Administrator’s Refer- ence Guide and User Manual for more detailed information on installing and configuring the card.

The following sections include procedures that are the same for all cards:

•“Viewing Events and Alerts” on page 62

•“Exporting the Configuration” on page 63

•“Importing the Configuration” on page 64

•“Viewing/Modifying System Log Configuration” on page 65

•“Changing Alarm Status” on page 65

•“Viewing/Modifying System Log Configuration” on page 65

Viewing Events and Alerts

Events are occurrences in the network, such as the discovery of an element, status update of an element, or a filure of an element. Alarms/Alerts are a result of events in the network and they represent failures that require immediate attention.

To view a color-coded chart that shows the amount of alarms and severity of alarms for the card, select Events and Alerts from the card’s configuration menu.
