Alarm Troubleshooting

---

This chapter gives a description, severity, and troubleshooting procedure for each commonly encountered Cisco ONS 15454 SDH alarm and condition. Tables 2-1 through 2-5 provide lists of ONS 15454 SDH alarms organized by severity. Table 2-6 provides a list of alarms organized alphabetically. Table 2-7 gives definitions of all ONS 15454 SDH alarm logical objects, which are the basis of the alarm profile list in Table 2-8. For a comprehensive list of all conditions, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH TL1 Reference Guide. For instructions on using Transaction Language One (TL1) commands, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH TL1 Command Guide.

An alarm's troubleshooting procedure applies to both the Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) and TL1 version of that alarm. If the troubleshooting procedure does not clear the alarm log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country.

More information about alarm profile information modification and downloads is located in the "Manage Alarms" chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

2.1  Alarm Index by Default Severity

The following tables group alarms and conditions by their default severities in the ONS 15454 SDH system. These severities are reported in the CTC Alarms window severity (SEV) column.

---

Note The CTC default alarm profile contains some alarms or conditions that are not currently implemented but are reserved for future use.

---

The following tables group alarms and conditions by the severity displayed in the CTC Alarms window in the severity (SEV) column. All severities listed in this manual are the default profile settings. Alarm severities can be altered from default settings for individual alarms or groups of alarms by creating a nondefault alarm profile and applying it on a port, card, or shelf basis. All settings (default or user-defined) that are Critical (CR) or Major (MJ) are demoted to Minor (MN) in situations that do not affect service.

---

Note The CTC default alarm profile in some cases contains two severities for one alarm (for example, MJ/MN). The ONS 15454 SDH platform default severity comes first (in this example, MJ), but the alarm can be demoted to the second severity in the presence of a higher-ranking alarm.

2.3  Alarm Logical Objects

The CTC alarm profile list organizes all alarms and conditions according to the logical objects they are raised against. These logical objects represent physical objects such as cards, logical objects such as circuits, or transport and signal monitoring entities such as the SDH or ITU-T G.709 optical overhead bits. One alarm can appear in multiple entries. It can be raised against multiple objects. For example, the loss of signal (LOS) alarm can be raised against the optical signal (STM-N) or the optical transport layer overhead (OTN) as well as other objects. Therefore, both STM-N: LOS and OTN: LOS appear in the list (as well as the other objects).

Alarm profile list objects are defined in Table 2-7.

---

Note Alarm logical object names can appear as abbreviated versions of standard terms used in the system and the documentation. For example, the "STMN" logical object refers to the STM-N signal. Logical object names or industry-standard terms are used within the entries as appropriate.

2.4  Alarm List by Logical Object Type

Table 2-8 lists all ONS 15454 SDH Release 7.2 alarms and logical objects as they are given in the system alarm profile. The list entries are organized by logical object name and then by alarm or condition name. Where appropriate, the alarm entries also contain troubleshooting procedures.

---

Note In a mixed network containing different types of nodes (such as ONS 15310-CL, ONS 15454 SDH, and ONS 15600), the initially displayed alarm list in the Provisioning > Alarm Profiles > Alarm Profile Editor tab lists all conditions that are applicable to all nodes in the network. However, when you load the default severity profile from a node, only applicable alarms will display severity levels. Nonapplicable alarms can display "use default" or "unset."

Note In some cases this list does not follow alphabetical order, but it does reflect the order shown in CTC.

2.5  Trouble Notifications

The ONS 15454 SDH system reports trouble by utilizing standard alarm and condition characteristics, and standard severities following the rules in ITU-T x.733, and graphical user interface (GUI) state indicators. These notifications are described in the following paragraphs.

The ONS 15454 SDH uses standard categories to characterize levels of trouble. The system reports trouble notifications as alarms and status or descriptive notifications (if configured to do so) as conditions in the CTC Alarms window. Alarms typically signify a problem that the user needs to address, such as a loss of signal. Conditions do not necessarily require troubleshooting.

2.5.1  Alarm Characteristics

The ONS 15454 SDH uses standard alarm entities to identify what is causing trouble. All alarms stem from hardware, software, environment, or operator-originated problems whether or not they affect service. Current alarms for the network, CTC session, node, or card are listed in the Alarms tab. (In addition, cleared alarms are also found in the History tab.)

2.5.2  Condition Characteristics

Conditions include any problem detected on an ONS 15454 SDH shelf. They could include standing or transient notifications. A snapshot of all current raised, standing conditions on the network, node, or card can be retrieved in the CTC Conditions window or using TL1's set of RTRV-COND commands. (In addition, some but not all cleared conditions are also found in the History tab.)

For more information about transient conditions, see Chapter 3, "Transient Conditions."

2.5.3  Severities

The ONS 15454 SDH uses ITU-devised standard severities for alarms and conditions: Critical (CR), Major (MJ), Minor (MN), Not Alarmed (NA), and Not Reported (NR). These are described below:

•A Critical (CR) alarm generally indicates severe, Service-Affecting (SA) trouble that needs immediate correction, such as an LOS on a trunk port or STM signal.

•A Major (MJ) alarm is a serious alarm, but the trouble has less impact on the network. For example, an automatic protection switching (APS) channel mismatch (APSCNMIS) alarm occurs when working and protect channels have been inadvertently switched so that a working channel is expected at the receive end, but a protect channel is received instead.

•Minor (MN) alarms generally are those that do not affect service. For example, the APS byte failure (APSB) alarm indicates that line terminating equipment (LTE) detects a byte failure on the signal that could prevent traffic from properly executing a traffic switch.

•Not Alarmed (NA) conditions are information indicators, such as for a free-running synchronization (FRNGSYNC) state or a forced-switch to primary timing (FRCSWTOPRI) event. They could or could not require troubleshooting, as indicated in the entries.

•Not Reported (NR) conditions occur as a secondary result of another event. For example, the alarm indication signal (MS-AIS), with severity NR, is inserted by a downstream node when an LOS (CR or MJ) alarm occurs upstream. These conditions do not in themselves require troubleshooting, but are to be expected in the presence of primary alarms.

Severities can be customized for an entire network or for single nodes, from the network level down to the port level by changing or downloading customized alarm profiles. These custom severities are subject to the standard severity-demoting rules given in Telcordia GR-474-CORE and shown in the "Alarm Hierarchy" section. Procedures for customizing alarm severities are located in the "Manage Alarms" chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

2.5.4  Alarm Hierarchy

All alarm, condition, and unreported event severities listed in this manual are default profile settings. However in situations when traffic is not lost, such as when the alarm occurs on protected ports or circuits, alarms having Critical (CR) or Major (MJ) default severities can be demoted to lower severities such as Minor (MN) or Non-Service-Affecting (NSA) as defined in Telcordia GR-474-CORE.

A path alarm can be demoted if a higher-ranking alarm is raised for the same object. For example, If an high-order path trace identifier mismatch (HP-TIM) is raised on a circuit path and then an administrative unit (AU) loss of pointer (LOP) is raised on it, the AU-LOP alarm stands and the HP-TIM closes. The path alarm hierarchy used in the ONS 15454 SDH system is shown in Table 2-9.

Table 2-9 Path Alarm Hierarchy

Priority	Condition Type
Highest	AU-AIS
—	AU-LOP
—	HP-UNEQ
Lowest	HP-TIM

Facility (port) alarms also follow a hierarchy, which means that lower-ranking alarms are closed by higher-ranking alarms. The facility alarm hierarchy used in the ONS 15454 SDH system is shown in Table 2-10.

Table 2-10 Facility Alarm Hierarchy

Priority	Condition Type
Highest	LOS
—	LOF
—	MS-AIS
—	MS-EXC1
—	MS-DEG1
—	MS-RDI1
—	RS-TIM
—	AU-AIS
—	AU-LOP
—	HP-EXC1
—	HP-DEG1
—	HP-UNEQ
—	HP-TIM
Lowest	HP-PLM1

1 This alarm is not currently used in the platform.

Near-end failures and far-end failures follow different hierarchies. Near-end failures stand according to whether they are for the entire signal (LOS, LOF), facility (MS-AIS), path (AU-AIS, etc.) or VT (TU-AIS, etc.). The full hierarchy for near-end failures is shown in Table 2-11. This table is taken from Telcordia GR-253-CORE.

2.5.5  Service Effect

The ITU also provides service effect standards. Service-Affecting (SA) alarms—those that interrupt service—could be Critical (CR), Major (MJ), or Minor (MN) severity alarms. Non-Service-Affecting (NSA) alarms always have a Minor (MN) default severity.

2.5.6  States

The Alarms and History tab State (ST) column indicate the disposition of the alarm or condition as follows:

•A raised (R) event is one that is active.

•A cleared (C) event is one that is no longer active.

•A transient (T) event is one that is automatically raised and cleared in CTC during system changes such as user login, logout, loss of connection to node view, etc. Transient events do not require user action. These are listed in Chapter 3, "Transient Conditions."

When you're done checking for alarms, click the alarm filter icon again to turn filtering back on. For more information about alarm filtering, refer to the "Manage Alarms" chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

---

---

Note When checking alarms, ensure that alarm suppression is not enabled on the card or port. For more information about alarm suppression, refer to the "Manage Alarms" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

---

---

Note When an entity is put in the Locked,maintenance administrative state, the ONS 15454 SDH suppresses all standing alarms on that entity and alarms and events appear on the Conditions tab. You can change this behavior for the LPBKFACILITY and LPBKTERMINAL alarms. To display these alarms on the Alarms tab, set the NODE.general.ReportLoopbackConditionsOnPortsInLocked,Maintenance to TRUE on the NE Defaults tab. For more information about changing NE defaults, refer to the "Maintain the Node" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

2.7.1  AIS

Default Severity: Not Reported (NR), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)

SDH Logical Objects: BITS, DS1, DS3, E1, E3, E4, FUDC, MSUDC

DWDM Logical Object: TRUNK

The Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) condition indicates that this node is detecting an alarm indication signal in the incoming signal SDH overhead.

Generally, any AIS is a special SDH signal that communicates to the receiving node when the transmit node does not send a valid signal. AIS is not considered an error. It is raised by the receiving node on each input when it detects the AIS instead of a real signal. In most cases when this condition is raised, an upstream node is raising an alarm to indicate a signal failure; all nodes downstream from it only raise some type of AIS. This condition clears when you resolved the problem on the upstream node.

---

Note DS3i-N-12 card DS3 facility and terminal loopbacks do not transmit DS3 AIS in the direction away from the loopback. Instead of DS3 AIS, a continuance of the signal transmitted to the loopback is provided.

---

Clear the AIS Condition

---

Step 1 Determine whether there are alarms on the upstream nodes and equipment, especially the "LOS (STM1E, STMN)" alarm on page 2-155, or if there are locked (Locked,maintenance or Locked,disabled) ports.

Step 2 Clear the upstream alarms using the applicable procedures in this chapter.

Step 3 If the condition does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country.

2.7.10  APSB

Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)

SDH Logical Object: STMN

The APS Channel Byte Failure alarm occurs when LTE detects protection switching byte failure or an invalid switching code in the incoming APS signal. Some older SDH nodes not manufactured by Cisco send invalid APS codes if they are configured in a 1+1 protection group with newer SDH nodes, such as the ONS 15454 SDH. These invalid codes cause an APSB alarm on an ONS 15454 SDH node.

Clear the APSB Alarm

---

Step 1 Use an optical test set to examine the incoming SDH overhead to confirm inconsistent or invalid K bytes. For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer. If corrupted K bytes are confirmed and the upstream equipment is functioning properly, the upstream equipment might not interoperate effectively with the ONS 15454 SDH.

Step 2 If the alarm does not clear and the overhead shows inconsistent or invalid K bytes, you could need to replace the upstream cards for protection switching to operate properly. Complete the "Physically Replace a Traffic Card" procedure.

---

Caution For the ONS 15454 SDH, removing a card that currently carries traffic on one or more ports can cause a traffic hit. To avoid this, perform an external switch if a switch has not already occurred. See the "Protection Switching, Lock Initiation, and Clearing" section for commonly used alarm troubleshooting procedures.

---

---

Note When you replace a card with the identical type of card, you do not need to make any changes to the database.

---

Step 3 If the alarm does not clear, log into log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country.

2.7.11  APSCDFLTK

Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)

SDH Logical Object: STMN

The APS Default K Byte Received alarm occurs when a multiplex section-shared protection ring (MS-SPRing) is not properly configured—for example, when a four-node MS-SPRing has one node configured as a subnetwork connection protection (SNCP) ring. When this misconfiguration occurs, a node in an SNCP ring or 1+1 configuration does not send the two valid K1/K2 APS bytes anticipated by a system configured for MS-SPRing. One of the bytes sent is considered invalid by the MS-SPRing configuration. The K1/K2 byte is monitored by receiving equipment for link-recovery information.

Troubleshooting for APSCDFLTK is often similar to troubleshooting for the "MSSP-OOSYNC" alarm on page 2-184.

Clear the APSCDFLTK Alarm

---

Step 1 Complete the "Identify an MS-SPRing Ring Name or Node ID Number" procedure to verify that each node has a unique node ID number.

Step 2 Repeat Step 1 for all nodes in the ring.

Step 3 If two nodes have the same node ID number, complete the "Change an MS-SPRing Node ID Number" procedure to change one node ID number so that each node ID is unique.

Step 4 If the alarm does not clear, verify correct configuration of east port and west port optical fibers. (See the "EXCCOL" alarm on page 2-89.) West port fibers must connect to east port fibers and east port fibers must connect to west port fibers. The "Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide provides a procedure for fibering MS-SPRings.

Step 5 If the alarm does not clear and if the network is a four-fiber MS-SPRing, ensure that each protect fiber is connected to another protect fiber and each working fiber is connected to another working fiber. The software does not report any alarm if a working fiber is incorrectly attached to a protect fiber.

Step 6 If the alarm does not clear, complete the "Verify Node Visibility for Other Nodes" procedure.

Step 7 If nodes are not visible, complete the "Verify or Create Node RS-DCC Terminations" procedure to ensure that regenerator section data communications channel (RS-DCC) terminations exist on each node.

Step 8 If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country.

2.7.12  APSC-IMP

Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)

SDH Logical Object: STMN

An Improper SDH APS Code alarm indicates bad or invalid K bytes. The APSC-IMP alarm occurs on STM-N cards in a MS-SPRing configuration and can occur during MS-SPRing configuration.

The receiving equipment monitors K bytes or K1 and K2 APS bytes for an indication to switch from the working card to the protect card or from the protect card to the working one. K1/K2 bytes also contain bits that tell the receiving equipment whether the K byte is valid. The alarm clears when the node receives valid K bytes.

---

Note This alarm can occur on a VC_LO_PATH_TUNNEL tunnel when it does not have lower order circuits provisioned on it. It can also occur when the exercise command or a lockout is applied to a span. An externally switched span does not raise this alarm because the traffic is preempted.

---

---

Note The APSC-IMP alarm may be raised on a BLSR or MS-SPRing when a drop connection is part of a cross-connect loopback.

---

---

Note The APSC-IMP alarm may be momentarily raised on BLSR spans during PCA circuit creation or deletion across multiple nodes using CTC.

---

---

Warning Invisible laser radiation could be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable or connector. Do not stare into the beam directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with certain optical instruments (for example, eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a distance of 100 mm could pose an eye hazard. Statement 1056

---

---

Warning Use of controls, adjustments, or performing procedures other than those specified could result in hazardous radiation exposure. Statement 1057

---

Clear the APSC-IMP Alarm

---

Step 1 Use an optical test set to determine the validity of the K byte signal by examining the received signal. For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer.

---

Caution Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454 SDH. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the on the middle-right outside edge of the shelf assembly.

---

If the K byte is invalid, the problem lies with upstream equipment and not with the reporting ONS 15454 SDH. Troubleshoot the upstream equipment using the procedures in this chapter, as applicable. If the upstream nodes are not ONS 15454 SDHs, consult the appropriate user documentation.

Step 2 If the K byte is valid, verify that each node has a ring name that matches the other node ring names. Complete the "Identify an MS-SPRing Ring Name or Node ID Number" procedure.

Step 3 Repeat Step 2 for all nodes in the ring.

Step 4 If a node has a ring name that does not match the other nodes, make that node's ring name identical to the other nodes. Complete the "Change an MS-SPRing Ring Name" procedure.

Step 5 If the condition does not clear, log into the Cisco Technical Support website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country.

2.7.13  APSCINCON

Default Severity: Minor (MN), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)

SDH Logical Object: STMN

An Inconsistent APS Code alarm indicates that the APS code contained in the SDH overhead is inconsistent. The SDH overhead contains K1/K2 APS bytes that notify receiving equipment, such as the ONS 15454 SDH, to switch the SDH signal from a working to a protect path when necessary. An inconsistent APS code occurs when three consecutive frames contain nonidentical APS bytes, which in turn give the receiving equipment conflicting commands about switching.

Clear the APSCINCON Alarm on an STM-N Card in an MS-SPRing

---

Step 1 Look for other alarms, especially the "LOS (STM1E, STMN)" alarm on page 2-155, the "LOF (DS1, DS3, E1, E4, STM1E, STMN)" alarm on page 2-146, or the "APSB" alarm on page 2-37. Clearing these alarms clears the APSCINCON alarm.

Step 2 If an APSINCON alarm occurs with no other alarms, log into the Cisco Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country.

---

2.7.14  APSCM

Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA) for STMN

SDH Logical Object: STMN

An Improper SDH APS Code alarm indicates three consecutive, identical frames containing:

•Unused code in bits 6 through 8 of byte K2.

•Codes that are irrelevant to the specific protection switching operation being requested.

•Requests that are irrelevant to the ring state of the ring (such as a span protection switch request in a two-fiber ring NE).

•ET code in K2 bits 6 through 8 received on the incoming span, but not sourced from the outgoing span.

---

Warning On the OC192 LR/STM64 LH 1550 card, the laser is on when the card is booted and the safety key is in the on position (labeled 1). The port does not have to be in service for the laser to be on. The laser is off when the safety key is off (labeled 0). Statement 293

---

---

Warning Invisible laser radiation could be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable or connector. Do not stare into the beam directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with certain optical instruments (for example, eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a distance of 100 mm could pose an eye hazard. Statement 1056

---

---

Warning Use of controls, adjustments, or performing procedures other than those specified could result in hazardous radiation exposure. Statement 1057

---

Clear the APSCM Alarm

---

Step 1 Verify that the working-card channel fibers are physically connected directly to the adjoining node's working-card channel fibers.

---

Caution Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454 SDH. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the middle-right outside edge of the shelf assembly.

---

Step 2 If the alarm does not clear, verify that the protection-card channel fibers are physically connected directly to the adjoining node's protection-card channel fibers.

Step 3 If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country in order to report a Service-Affecting (SA) problem.

---

2.7.15  APSCNMIS

Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)

SDH Logical Object: STMN

The APS Node ID Mismatch alarm occurs when the source node ID contained in the incoming APS channel K2 byte is not present in the ring map. APSCNMIS could occur and clear when an MS-SPRing is being provisioned. If so, the user can disregard the temporary occurrence. If the APSCNMIS occurs and stays, the alarm clears when a K byte with a valid source node ID is received.

Clear the APSCNMIS Alarm

---

Step 1 Complete the "Identify an MS-SPRing Ring Name or Node ID Number" procedure for each node to verify that each node has a unique node ID number.

Step 2 If the Node ID column contains any two nodes with the same node ID listed, record the repeated node ID.

Step 3 Click Close in the Ring Map dialog box.

Step 4 If two nodes have the same node ID number, complete the "Change an MS-SPRing Node ID Number" procedure to change one node ID number so that each node ID is unique.

---

Note If the node names shown in the network view do not correlate with the node IDs, log into each node and click the Provisioning > MS-SPRing tabs. The MS-SPRing window shows the node ID of the login node.

---

---

Note Applying and removing a lockout on a span causes the ONS node to generate a new K byte. The APSCNMIS alarm clears when the node receives a K byte containing the correct node ID.

---

Step 5 If the alarm does not clear, use the "Initiate a Lockout on an MS-SPRing Protect Span" procedure to lock out the span.

Step 6 Complete the "Clear an MS-SPRing External Switching Command" procedure to clear the lockout.

Step 7 If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country in order to report a Service-Affecting (SA) problem.

2.7.26  AU-LOP

Default Severity: Critical (CR), Service-Affecting (SA)

SDH Logical Objects: VCMON-HP, VCTRM-HP

An AU-LOP alarm indicates that the SDH high order path overhead section of the administration unit has detected a loss of path. AU-LOP occurs when there is a mismatch between the expected and provisioned circuit size. For the TXP card, an AU-LOP is raised if a port is configured for an SDH signal but receives a SDH signal instead. (This information is contained in the H1 byte bits 5 and 6.)

---

Warning Invisible laser radiation could be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable or connector. Do not stare into the beam directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with certain optical instruments (for example, eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a distance of 100 mm could pose an eye hazard. Statement 1056

---

---

Warning Use of controls, adjustments, or performing procedures other than those specified could result in hazardous radiation exposure. Statement 1057

---

---

Note For more information about MXP and TXP cards, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Reference Manual.

---

Clear the AU-LOP Alarm

---

Step 1 In node view, click the Circuits tab and view the alarmed circuit.

Step 2 Verify that the correct circuit size is listed in the Size column. If the size is different from what is expected, such as a VC4-4c instead of a VC4, this causes the alarm.

Step 3 If you have been monitoring the circuit with optical test equipment, a mismatch between the provisioned circuit size and the size expected by the test set can cause this alarm. Ensure that the test set monitoring is set up for the same size as the circuit provisioning. For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer.

Step 4 If you have not been using a test set, or if the test set is correctly set up, the error is in the provisioned CTC circuit size. Complete the "Delete a Circuit" procedure.

Step 5 Recreate the circuit for the correct size. For procedures, refer to the "Create Circuits and Tunnels" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

2.7.28  AUTONEG-RFI

Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)

SDH Logical Object: ML1000

The autonegotiation remote fault indication (RFI) indicates that an ML1000 Gigabit Ethernet port cannot detect its far-end link partner. This is typically caused by a far-end port shutdown or a unidirectional fiber cut. The partner node is likely raising a CARLOSS alarm.

AUTONEG-RFI may also be caused by misconfigured autonegotiation parameters. This causes more of a soft failure as opposed to CARLOSS, which is typically caused by a failure like a loss of light or optical fiber. The alarm clears the partner node is detected.

---

Note The far end of an Ethernet link is usually a switch or router that does not use an ONS management system.

---

Clear the AUTONEG-RFI Alarm

---

Step 1 Check for a "CARLOSS (EQPT)" alarm on page 2-59, or "CARLOSS (ML100T, ML1000, MLFX)" alarm on page 2-64, at the partner node. If the alarm exists there, follow the appropriate clearing procedure in this chapter.

Step 2 If the alarm does not clear or if there is no far-end CARLOSS, check the near-end Gigabit Ethernet port autonegotiation settings:

a. Double-click the ML1000 card to display the card view.

b. Click the IOS tab, then click Open IOS Connection.

c. In Privileged Executive mode, enter the following command:

router# show interface gigabitethernet 0

d. View the command output and record the autonegotiation setting, such as the following example:

Full-duplex, 1000Mb/s, Gbic not connected, Auto-negotiation

output flow-control is off, input flow-control is on

Step 3 View the autonegotiation configuration for the partner node. If it is ONS equipment, follow the previous step for this node. If the node is different vendor client equipment, follow that equipment documentation to obtain the information.

Step 4 If the alarm does not clear, check for any fiber breaks such as on the transmit cable from the partner node to the near-end node.

Step 5 If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country.

2.7.30  AUTOSW-AIS-SNCP

Default Severity: Not Reported (NR), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)

SDH Logical Objects: VCMON-HP, VCMON-LP

The Automatic SNCP Switch Caused by an AIS condition indicates that automatic SNCP protection switching occurred because of the "TU-AIS" condition on page 2-240. If the SNCP ring is configured for revertive switching, it switches back to the working path after the fault clears. The AUTOSW-AIS-SNCP clears when you clear the primary alarm on the upstream node.

---

Note This condition is only reported if the SNCP is set up for revertive switching.

---

Generally, any AIS is a special SDH signal that communicates to the receiving node when the transmit node does not send a valid signal. AIS is not considered an error. It is raised by the receiving node on each input when it detects the AIS instead of a real signal. In most cases when this condition is raised, an upstream node is raising an alarm to indicate a signal failure; all nodes downstream from it only raise some type of AIS. This condition clears when you resolved the problem on the upstream node.

Clear the AUTOSW-AIS-SNCP Condition

---

Step 1 Complete the "Clear the AIS Condition" procedure.

Step 2 If the condition does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country.

2.7.43  CARLOSS (E100T, E1000F)

Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)

SDH Logical Objects: E100T, E1000F

A Carrier Loss alarm on the LAN E-Series Ethernet card is the data equivalent of the "LOS (STM1E, STMN)" alarm on page 2-155. The Ethernet card has lost its link and is not receiving a valid signal. The most common causes of the CARLOSS alarm are a disconnected cable, an Ethernet Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) fiber connected to an optical card rather than an Ethernet device, or an improperly installed Ethernet card. Ethernet card ports must be enabled for CARLOSS to occur. CARLOSS is declared after no signal is received for approximately 2.5 seconds.

CARLOSS also occurs after the restoration of a node database. In this instance, the alarm clears approximately 30 seconds after the node reestablishes Spanning Tree Protocol (STP). Reestablishment applies to the E-Series Ethernet cards but not to the G-Series card. The G-Series card does not use STP and is not affected by STP reestablishment.

---

Note For more information about Ethernet cards, refer to the Ethernet Card Software Feature and Configuration Guide for the Cisco ONS 15454, Cisco ONS 15454 SDH, and Cisco ONS 15327.

---

Clear the CARLOSS (E100T, E1000F) Alarm

---

Step 1 Verify that the fiber cable is properly connected and attached to the correct port. For more information about fiber connections and terminations, refer to the "Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

---

Caution Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454 SDH. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the middle-right outside edge of the shelf assembly.

---

Step 2 If the fiber cable is properly connected and attached to the port, verify that the cable connects the card to another Ethernet device and is not misconnected to an STM-N card. For more information about fiber connections and terminations, refer to the "Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

Step 3 If no misconnection to an STM-N card exists, verify that the transmitting device is operational. If not, troubleshoot the device.

Step 4 If the alarm does not clear, use an Ethernet test set to determine whether a valid signal is coming into the Ethernet port. For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer.

Step 5 If a valid Ethernet signal is not present and the transmitting device is operational, replace the fiber cable connecting the transmitting device to the Ethernet port. To do this, refer to the "Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

Step 6 If a valid Ethernet signal is present, complete the "Remove and Reinsert (Reseat) Any Card" procedure for the Ethernet card.

Step 7 If the alarm does not clear, complete the "Physically Replace a Traffic Card" procedure for the Ethernet card.

---

Note When you replace a card with the identical type of card, you do not need to make any changes to the database.

---

Step 8 If a CARLOSS alarm repeatedly appears and clears, use the following steps to examine the layout of your network to determine whether the Ethernet circuit is part of an Ethernet manual cross-connect.

An Ethernet manual cross-connect is used when another vendor's equipment sits between ONS 15454 SDHs, and the open systems interconnect/target identifier address resolution protocol (OSI/TARP)-based equipment does not allow tunneling of the ONS 15454 SDH TCP/IP-based DCC. To circumvent a lack of continuous DCC, the Ethernet circuit is manually cross connected to a channel riding through the non-ONS network.

If the reporting Ethernet circuit is part of an Ethernet manual cross-connect, then the reappearing alarm could be a result of mismatched circuit sizes in the set up of the manual cross-connect. Determine this by completing the following steps. If the Ethernet circuit is not part of a manual cross-connect, the following steps do not apply.

a. Right-click anywhere in the row of the CARLOSS alarm.

b. Click Select Affected Circuits in the shortcut menu that appears.

c. Record the information in the type and size columns of the highlighted circuit.

d. From the examination of the layout of your network, determine which ONS 15454 SDH node and card are hosting the Ethernet circuit at the other end of the Ethernet manual cross-connect and complete the following substeps:

•Log into the ONS 15454 SDH at the other end of the Ethernet manual cross-connect.

•Double-click the Ethernet card that is part of the Ethernet manual cross-connect.

•Click the Circuits tab.

•Record the information in the type and size columns of the circuit that is part of the Ethernet manual cross-connect. The Ethernet manual cross-connect circuit connects the Ethernet card to an STM-N card at the same node.

e. Use the information you recorded to determine whether the two Ethernet circuits on each side of the Ethernet manual cross-connect have the same circuit size.

If one of the circuit sizes is incorrect, complete the "Delete a Circuit" procedure and reconfigure the circuit with the correct circuit size. For procedures, refer to the "Create Circuits and Tunnels" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

Step 9 If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country in order to report a Service-Affecting (SA) problem.

2.7.44  CARLOSS (EQPT)

Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)

SDH Logical Object: EQPT

The Carrier Loss Equipment alarm occurs when the ONS 15454 SDH and the workstation hosting CTC do not have a TCP/IP connection. CARLOSS is a problem involving the LAN or data circuit used by the RJ-45 connector on the TCC2/TCC2P card or the LAN backplane pin connection on the back of the ONS 15454 SDH. The alarm does not involve an Ethernet circuit connected to a port on an Ethernet (traffic) card. The problem is in the connection (usually a LAN problem) and not the CTC or the ONS 15454 SDH.

On TXP_MR_10G, TXP_MR_2.5G, TXPP_MR_2.5G, and MXP_2.5G_10G cards, CARLOSS is also raised against trunk ports when ITU-T G.709 monitoring is turned off.

A TXP_MR_2.5G card can raise a CARLOSS alarm when the payload is incorrectly configured for the 10 Gigabit Ethernet or 1 Gigabit Ethernet payload data types.

Clear the CARLOSS (EQPT) Alarm

---

Step 1 If the reporting card is an MXP, TXP, MRC-12, or OC192-XVP/STM64-XFP card in an ONS 15454 SDH node, verify the data rate configured on the PPM by completing the following steps:

a. Double-click the reporting card.

b. Click the Provisioning > Pluggable Port Modules tabs.

c. View the Pluggable Port Modules area port listing in the Actual Equipment Type column for the card and compare this with the Selected PPM area Rate column contents.

d. If the rate does not match the actual equipment, you must delete and recreate the selected PPM. Select the PPM, click Delete, then click Create and choose the correct rate for the port rate.

---

Note For more information about provisioning PPMs, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Procedure Guide.

---

Step 2 If the reporting card is an STM-N card, verify connectivity by pinging the ONS 15454 SDH that is reporting the alarm by completing the procedure in the "1.8.8  Verify PC Connection to the ONS 15454 SDH (ping)" section on page 1-100.

Step 3 If the ping is successful, it demonstrates that an active TCP/IP connection exists. Restart CTC by completing the following steps:

a. Exit from CTC.

b. Reopen the browser.

c. Log into CTC.

Step 4 Using optical test equipment, verify that proper receive levels are achieved. (For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer.)

Step 5 Verify that the optical LAN cable is properly connected and attached to the correct port. For more information about fiber connections and terminations, refer to the "Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide

Step 6 If the fiber cable is properly connected and attached to the port, verify that the cable connects the card to another Ethernet device and is not misconnected to an STM-N card. For more information about fiber connections and terminations, refer to the "Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

Step 7 If you are unable to establish connectivity, replace the fiber cable with a new known-good cable. To do this, refer to the "Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable" chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide for procedures.

Step 8 If you are unable to establish connectivity, perform standard network or LAN diagnostics. For example, trace the IP route, verify cable continuity, and troubleshoot any routers between the node and CTC. To verify cable continuity, follow site practices.

Step 9 If you are unable to establish connectivity, perform standard network/LAN diagnostics. For example, trace the IP route, verify cable continuity, and troubleshoot any routers between the node. If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country to report a Service-Affecting (SA) problem.

2.7.45  CARLOSS (FC)

For information about this alarm or condition, refer to the "Alarm Troubleshooting" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Troubleshooting Guide. This guide discusses all DWDM alarms.

2.7.46  CARLOSS (G1000)

Default Severity: Major (MJ), Service-Affecting (SA)

SDH Logical Object: G1000

A Carrier Loss alarm on the LAN G-Series Ethernet card is the data equivalent of the "LOS (STM1E, STMN)" alarm on page 2-155. The Ethernet card has lost its link and is not receiving a valid signal.

CARLOSS on the G-Series card is caused by one of two situations:

•The G-Series port reporting the alarm is not receiving a valid signal from the attached Ethernet device. The CARLOSS can be caused by an improperly connected Ethernet cable or a problem with the signal between the Ethernet device and the G-Series port.

•If a problem exists in the end-to-end path (including possibly the far-end G-Series card), it causes the reporting card to turn off the Gigabit Ethernet transmitter. Turning off the transmitter typically causes the attached device to turn off its link laser, which results in a CARLOSS on the reporting G-Series card. The root cause is the problem in the end-to-end path. When the root cause is cleared, the far-end G-Series port turns the transmitter laser back on and clears the CARLOSS on the reporting card. If a turned-off transmitter causes the CARLOSS alarm, other alarms such as the "TPTFAIL (G1000)" alarm on page 2-237 or STM-N alarms or conditions on the end-to-end path normally accompany the CARLOSS (G1000s) alarm.

Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Reference Manual for a description of the G-Series card's end-to-end Ethernet link integrity capability. Also see the "TRMT" alarm on page 2-239 for more information about alarms that occur when a point-to-point circuit exists between two cards.

Ethernet card ports must be enabled for CARLOSS to occur. CARLOSS is declared after no signal is received for approximately 2.5 seconds.

---

Note For more information about Ethernet cards, refer to the Ethernet Card Software Feature and Configuration Guide for the Cisco ONS 15454, Cisco ONS 15454 SDH, and Cisco ONS 15327.

---

Clear the CARLOSS (G1000) Alarm

---

Step 1 Verify that the fiber cable is properly connected and attached to the correct port. For more information about fiber connections and terminations, refer to the "Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

---

Caution Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454 SDH. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the on the middle-right outside edge of the shelf assembly.

---

Step 2 If the fiber cable is correctly connected and attached, verify that the cable connects the card to another Ethernet device and is not misconnected to an STM-N card.

Step 3 If no misconnection to the STM-N card exists, verify that the attached transmitting Ethernet device is operational. If not, troubleshoot the device.

Step 4 Verify that optical receive levels are within the normal range. The correct specifications are listed in the "1.11.3  Optical Card Transmit and Receive Levels" section on page 1-125.

Step 5 If the alarm does not clear, use an Ethernet test set to determine whether a valid signal is coming into the Ethernet port. For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer.

Step 6 If a valid Ethernet signal is not present and the transmitting device is operational, replace the fiber cable connecting the transmitting device to the Ethernet port. To do this, refer to the "Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

Step 7 If the alarm does not clear, and link autonegotiation is enabled on the port but the autonegotiation process fails, the card turns off its transmitter laser and reports a CARLOSS alarm. If link autonegotiation has been enabled for the port, determine whether there are conditions that could cause autonegotiation to fail:

a. Confirm that the attached Ethernet device has autonegotiation enabled and is configured for compatibility with the asymmetric flow control on the card.

b. Confirm that the attached Ethernet device configuration allows reception of flow control frames.

Step 8 If the alarm does not clear, disable and reenable the Ethernet port to attempt to remove the CARLOSS condition. (The autonegotiation process restarts.)

Step 9 If the alarm does not clear and the "TPTFAIL (G1000)" alarm on page 2-237 is also reported, complete the "Clear the TPTFAIL (G1000) Alarm" procedure. If the TPTFAIL alarm is not raised, continue to the next step.

---

Note When the CARLOSS and the TPTFAIL alarms are reported, the reason for the condition could be the G-Series card's end-to-end link integrity feature taking action on a remote failure indicated by the TPTFAIL alarm.

---

Step 10 If the TPTFAIL alarm was not raised, determine whether a terminal (inward) loopback has been provisioned on the port:

a. In node view, click the card to go to card view.

b. Click the Maintenance > Loopback tabs.

c. If the service state is listed as Locked-disabled, loopback & maintenance, a loopback is provisioned. Go to Step 11.

Step 11 If a loopback was provisioned, complete the "Clear a Non-STM Card Facility or Terminal Loopback Circuit" procedure.

On the G-Series, provisioning a terminal (inward) loopback causes the transmit laser to turn off. If an attached Ethernet device detects the loopback as a loss of carrier, the attached Ethernet device shuts off the transmit laser to the G-Series card. Terminating the transmit laser could raise the CARLOSS alarm because the loopbacked G-Series port detects the termination.

If the does not have a loopback condition, continue to Step 12.

Step 12 If a CARLOSS alarm repeatedly appears and clears, the reappearing alarm could be a result of mismatched STS circuit sizes in the setup of the manual cross-connect. Perform the following steps if the Ethernet circuit is part of a manual cross-connect:

---

Note An ONS 15454 SDH Ethernet manual cross-connect is used when another vendor's equipment sits between ONS nodes, and the OSI/TARP-based equipment does not allow tunneling of the ONS 15454 SDH TCP/IP-based DCC. To circumvent a lack of continuous DCC, the Ethernet circuit is manually cross connected to an STS channel riding through the non-ONS network.

---

a. Right-click anywhere in the row of the CARLOSS alarm.

b. Right-click or left-click Select Affected Circuits in the shortcut menu that appears.

c. Record the information in the type and size columns of the highlighted circuit.

d. Examine the layout of your network and determine which ONS 15454 SDH and card are hosting the Ethernet circuit at the other end of the Ethernet manual cross-connect and complete the following substeps:

•Log into the node at the other end of the Ethernet manual cross-connect.

•Double-click the Ethernet card that is part of the Ethernet manual cross-connect.

•Click the Circuits tab.

•Record the information in the type and size columns of the circuit that is part of the Ethernet manual cross-connect. The cross-connect circuit connects the Ethernet card to an STM-N card at the same node.

e. Determine whether the two Ethernet circuits on each side of the Ethernet manual cross-connect have the same circuit size from the circuit size information you recorded.

f. If one of the circuit sizes is incorrect, complete the "Delete a Circuit" procedure and reconfigure the circuit with the correct circuit size. Refer to the "Create Circuits and VT Tunnels" chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide for detailed procedures to create circuits.

Step 13 If a valid Ethernet signal is present, complete the "Remove and Reinsert (Reseat) Any Card" procedure.

Step 14 If the alarm does not clear, complete the "Physically Replace a Traffic Card" procedure for the Ethernet card.

Step 15 If the alarm does not clear, log into http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml to obtain a directory of toll-free Technical Support numbers for your country to report a Service-Affecting (SA) problem.
