Why Board Reports IN_PWR_ABN Alarm,After R_LOS Is Suppressed?

Author: Abbe Tan

Issue Description

In an OSN project, the Huawei OptiX OSN 3500 and Huawei OptiX OSN 1500 form an SNCP ring. Three optical ports on the N1SLQ1 of the OptiX OSN 3500 are not used. Hence, the R_LOS alarm is suppressed for the three optical ports. Then, the IN_PWR_ABN alarm, however, is reported.

Alarm Information

Null

Handling Process

Suppress the IN_PWR_ABN alarm.

Root Cause

After a higher level alarm is suppressed, the lower level alarms that are suppressed by this higher level alarm are reported. For example, after the R_LOS alarm is suppressed, the IN_PWR_ABN alarm is reported.

Suggestions

When you suppress an alarm, note that the lower level alarms that are suppressed by this alarm will be reported.
