When you activate alarm origination, the system sends notification
of alarms that occur on the MSS to a remote
location that you specify, such as the remote service center. Modular Messaging supports alarm notification via SNMP or modem.
If you are administering alarm management via SNMP, use the Alarm
Management page to set up your primary network management station
(NMS) for alarm notification. If you want to set up additional NMSs
to receive alarm notification, see Administering SNMP NMSs for alarms.
To set up alarm management:
- Clear all alarms. See Viewing MSS logs for more information.
- Insert a labeled, writable DVD-RAM into the DVD drive for the nightly
backup.
- On the Configure Alarms page, type the Product ID for the system. See the Support information planning form to obtain this number.
- Verify that Alarm Suppression is set to INACTIVE.
Note: You can use the default settings for
Alarm Level and Clear Alarm Notification.
- Specify the type of alarm notification to use on this system:
- For INADS alarming, set Alarm Origination to INADS.
Continue with Step 6.
- For SNMP alarming, set Alarm Origination to SNMP
Continue with Step 7.
Note: If you select SNMP in the Alarm Origination
field, make sure that you administer
SNMP on the system.
- If you selected INADS in Step 5, type the Alarm
Destination telephone number. Click the field name or Help
to see a complete field description.
- If you selected SNMP in Step 5, complete the Network
Management Station, SNMP Community (Context), and Acknowledgement
Type. Click the field names or Help to see complete
field descriptions.
Note: If you are sending alarm notifications via SNMP to Avaya Fault and Performance Manager (FPM), select ping surround as the Acknowledge Type.
- Click Save.
- Test MSS Alarm Origination
to verify that alarm origination is functioning properly.
