Alarm Behavior (Card View)
Use the Alarm Behavior subtab to view and change alarm profiles assigned to the cards on the ONS node. The ONS node is shipped with two reserved profiles: Default (all alarms meet Telcordia GR-253-CORE severities) and Inherited (all alarms behave according to the parent alarm profile: port > card > node).
 
Item
Description
Port
Displays the port number.
Profile
Displays the alarm profile provisioned for the port. Default is the profile shipped with the ONS node and has the Telcordia GR-253-CORE severities. “Inherited from Card profile” means the port uses the alarm severities assigned to the slot in the Card Profile field. If custom profiles are loaded, they can be assigned at the port level. An Inherited profile uses the values from the profile one level up:
A profile applied to a port uses the card profile.
A profile applied to a card uses the node profile.
A profile applied to a node uses the Default profile.
Suppress Alarms
When checked, suppresses all alarms that occur at the port.
Force all ports to profile
Sets the profile for all ports. Valid choices are Default and Inherited from Card profile.
Force (still need to Apply)
Forces all ports on the card to the desired alarm profile. As the button indicates, you must click Apply for the changes to take effect.
Apply
Applies changes to the Alarm Behavior subtab.
Reset
Cancels Alarm Behavior subtab changes and returns the fields to their last-saved settings.
Help
Displays context-sensitive help.
