Alarm Notification Setup and Programming

Alarm Notification

1. In eManager go to Utilities | Operations | Alarm Slot.
Across the top of the screen is a Tab for each CIX cabinet in the system.
2. Enable or Disable the cards and system resources to be monitored by the Alarm Manager
feature. If a card or resource is not enabled, the Alarm Notification feature will not report errors
concerning that card or resource.
Note
Currently only T1, PRI, and IP Telephone interface cards send alarms. System resources
alarms include SMDI (LAN), SMDR, Expansion cabinet power supplies, CIX200 fan, and
the CTI link (Attendant and Console ACD, External VM). CTI Link Alarms occur when a
CTI device loses communication with the CIX. CTI alarms clear when communications
are restored between the CIX and CTI device.

System Alarm Control

1. In eManager go to Utilities | Operations | System Alarm.
2. The Clear Alarm Buffer (Prog. 919, FB01) is default Idle. To manually clear the buffer set to
Invoke and Submit. If you invoke the clear buffer command, the system will not re-send a
persisting T1 or PRI alarm condition. When an alarm condition is clear for several seconds, the
system will clear the buffer.
3. Set the Alarm Buffer Status (Prog. 919, FB02) to Enable for Alarm Notifications to be sent to
eMonitor. Set to Disable to shut off alarm notification output. When this feature is enabled the
Strata CIX system will send the contents of the alarm buffer to the eMonitor servers as an
Alarm Summary every 10 minutes. The Alarm Summary is a list of alarms stored in the Strata
CIX alarm buffer.
4. Enter the System ID (Prog. 919). This is the 'name' of this CIX system or Group of Strata Net
systems. The System ID can be up to eight alpha/numeric characters. This is the name sent
from the CIX to eMonitor with the Alarm Trap message.

Trap IP Setup

1. In eManager go to Utilities | Operations | Trap IP Setup.
2. Enter the IP Address of the external console (eMonitor or other application)
3. Enter the Community Name. This is the Community Name for the external console (eMonitor,
other applications).The name must be alphanumeric string and must not contain any spaces.
Note
The Community Name for eMonitor is not a password. Any name can be used. It is
recommended that the Community Name identifies the location of the eMonitor, or where
the alarms will be sent.
