Alarm Response Outputs display the current setting for handling alarm notification via the different Alarm
Response Outputs. To change the Alarm Response Outputs parameters, refer to "Alarm Parameters" on

The relay of the Alarm Port on the rear of the chassis will be activated when a major, minor, or both major and
minor alarm is generated. The Alarm Port may also be disabled.

alarm.

alarm.
Minor Alarm SNMP Trap IP [address] (minorTrapIp)
Displays the IP address of a SNMP management station for receiving the SNMP trap messages upon the
occurrence of an active minor alarm. The SNMP trap messages are sent in UDP datagrams. When the IP
address is set to 0.0.0.0, no trap messages will ever be sent.
Major Alarm SNMP Trap IP [address] (majorTrapIp)
The same function as the Minor Alarm Trap IP except for only the occurrence of active major alarms.

alarms, reset the alarm, reset Time Since Alarm to 0.00 seconds, and reset the Alarm Count to 0 (zero).

This portion of the Alarms main window displays the alarm status table, where you can view current alarm sta-
tus, manually generate an alarm as a test, and clear the alarm time and alarm count variables.

Alarm Name
The alarm items are grouped into two categories: system and WAN trunk alarms. The system group category
lists DACS temperature and power supply status. The WAN category monitors the T1/E1/PRI ports for yel-
low and red alarms.
