Chapter Summary
Chapter 1, Overview Introduces the concepts and terms used in this manual.
Alarm code is defined by a 32-bit field indicating the specific code value.
1-1
1.4.2 Notification
Notification refers to the non-repeated/instantaneous fault or event that occurs during
system operation. Examples include board reset, signaling overload, etc.
Notification is mostly caused by sudden environment change or other accidental factors.
No special handling is required for the notification, which can be automatically removed by
the system. Only the notification that occurs persistently requires troubleshooting.
1.5 Severity
There are four alarm severity levels, which are indicated in descending order of severity
as Critical, Major, Minor and Warning.
l Critical alarm causes system breakdown and service interruption. It requires
immediate troubleshooting.
l Major alarm significantly affects system operation or weakens network service
capability. It requires troubleshooting as soon as possible.
l Minor alarm affects system operation and network service capability in a nonsignificant
way. A timely troubleshooting is required to avoid severity escalation.
l Warning alarm poses a potential hazard to system operation and network service
capability. It requires troubleshooting at an appropriate time so as to avoid severity
escalation.
The degree of impact as described in the definition of alarm severity refers to the impact of
a single index, such as reliability and security. Once the impact on any of the index reaches
the specified threshold, the severity level of the alarm can be roughly determined. If an
alarm has an impact on multiple indices, alarm severity should be escalated accordingly.
1-2
Note:
Alarm severity can be modified in NetNumen M31 NMS (network management system) if
necessary.
Generally speaking, the default alarm severity is reasonably set. Users should think twice
before making any modification.
In addition, the severity of few alarms is Undefined. It is up to users to define the severity
of such alarms.

not actually exist, delete it and synchronize to BSC.
2. On NMS configuration management interface, check the correctness of configuration.
2.1 For IP access site:
a) Check the interface configuration, ensure the OMP and EGPB interfaces are both configured
and correct.
b) Check the association configuration in the "2G Office Configuration" interface, if exists. The local
port, remote port, local IP address pair, remote IP address pair must be exactly the same with site
configuration. All IP addresses appeared in the "local IP address pair" must be configured in step a).
The association property must be Server, service type must be "IPABIS".
c) In the "Site Configuration" interface, make sure the referenced association id is same with which

BSC can implement flow control automatically. Observe the alarm without further operation.
Probable Cause
The excessive traffic causes the CPU load to exceed the flow control threshold in module parameter
setting.
System Impact
The system automatically initiates flow control management and thus some users cannot gain access.
If the traffic is still excessive after flow control, the CPU load will grow further.
Handling Suggestion
Block some cells through dynamic data management to prohibit some users to access. After the
alarm is eliminated, restore the configuration or unblock the related cells.
