eMonitor/Alarm Notification5-2 Strata CTX Application Implementation Vol 3 10/07Alarm Notification is sent on a card slot basis, not per port. This helps reduce network loading. Usethe Port Make Busy program to determine individual port status (Utilities/Maintenance/Cabinet).Expansion Cabinet power supply alarms are reported as System Resource (Slot 0x00, x = cabinetnumber) alarms. SMDR Memory Buffer Full, CTI Link Down, SMDR Link Down and SMDI LinkDown are reported as System Resource (Slot 0100) in Cabinet 1.When an alarm condition occurs the CIX processor records the error code in the alarm buffer. Theprocessor will send a command to light Alarm Indicators on stations and send the SNMP Trap datato as many as 11 IP addresses. The trap data can be read by eMonitor or another alarm monitorsoftware application.The Alarm Notification SNMP Trap Data messages are sent from the CIX processor to eMonitorusing UDP port 162. To allow eMonitor to send SNMP messages to the CIX processor, port 161 onthe NAT router must be port forwarded to the CIX IP address. Any firewall between the CIX andthe external console will need this port enabled.When the CIX detects an alarm condition, the Alarm buffer sends the notification. When the alarmcondition has been cleared for several seconds the CIX will send an alarm clear message toeMonitor, and turn off the alarm notification LED on stations.Note On T1 and PRI alarms only, if the Clear Alarm Buffer Command is invoked (Utilities/Operations/System Alarm), the system will not issue another alarm notification even if theT1 or PRI alarm condition persists. Only a new T1 or PRI alarm condition will causeanother alarm notification.Strata CIXT1FanISDNAlarmBufferAlarm NotificationIndicator (Button)LANSNMP Trap DataCIX Processor Network JackBDKUeMonitorLANWANRecommended ConfigurationSMTPServerInstall eMonitor and the Strata CIXsystem on the same LAN.* If the CIX is behind a NAT router eMonitor will be able to monitor (receive) CIX alarms but,will not be able to send alarm programming to the CIX unless the NAT router performs Portforwarding to the CIX IP address.Strata CIXAlarmBufferNAT*WANSNMP Trap Data eMonitorSMTPServerLANWANPublic IP AddressConfiguration with NAT
