DETAILED STEPS
Step 1
Verify that SSM is enabled on the external timing source.
Step 2
If timing is enabled, use an optical test set to determine that the external timing source is delivering SSM. For specific
procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer.
If the alarm does not get cleared, you need to report a Service-Affecting (SA) problem. Log into the Technical Support

SSM-LNC
Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)
Logical Object: TRUNK
The SSM Local Node Clock (LNC) Traceable condition occurs on ADM-10G and MXP trunk ports when
the SSM (S1) byte of the SONET overhead multiplexing section has been changed to signify that the line or
BITS timing source is the LNC.
SSM-LNC is an informational condition and does not require troubleshooting.
Note
SSM-OFF
Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)
Logical Object: TRUNK
The SSM Off condition applies to references used for timing related to the ADM-10G and MXP trunk ports.
It occurs when the SSM for the reference has been turned off. The node is set up to receive SSM, but the
timing source is not delivering SSM messages.
