Critical, indicating complete, non-recoverable failure, loss of data, and do on. The failed entity must
be restored. A power failure or a line being disconnected is an example.
Major, indicating service-affecting errors. This event indicates that a major service is damaged or
lost, but the existing traffic is not affected.
Minor, indicating non-service affecting errors or errors on a remote node. Corrective action is
appropriate to prevent a serious fault from developing. An example is a fan failure, where no
subscribers are immediately affected, but calamity could result if the situation persists. Note that an
accumulation of lower-level alarms does equal a higher-level alarm.
