enable suspend-alm-orig
Use enable suspend-alm-orig to enable Suspend Alarm Origination for a board
(including all ports and endpoints on the board) or for a port (including all
endpoints on the port) for both on- and off-board alarms or for off-board alarms
only. Many control circuit packs do not have a board location, so this command
cannot support all circuit packs. Each enable command becomes a new entry or
replaces an existing entry in the Suspend Alarm Origination table. A new entry
that matches both the physical location and off-only, on-, and off-board
specifications of an active entry replaces the active entry in the Suspend Alarm
Origination table.
On the command line, specify a time-out duration of 1 - 72 hours. The
off-board-only is optional. If the keyword is not specified, the entry suspends
Alarm Origination for both on-and off-board alarms.
This command is useful for:
■
Improved control over customer requests. For example, to suspend
off-board DS1 alarms temporarily for customers that periodically
disconnect DS1 trunks for testing or other business-related purposes.
■
Improved control over external (non-Avaya) problems such as suspending
off-board DS1 alarms before a customer resolves facility problems (for
example, a T1 trunk that has developed an off-board condition).
■
Improved control over internal (Avaya) problems that cannot be resolved
immediately. For example, the command can be used to suspend Alarm
Origination for a bad circuit pack detected late Friday night and dispatch
personnel cannot respond until Monday.
NOTE:
See related commands, including disable suspend-alm-orig and list
