Fault Severity
Each fault point is associated with one of the following default severity types.
Table 1: Fault Severity
Severity | Description |
|---|---|
Critical | A failure that is likely causing serious loss or interruption of traffic. |
Major | A failure that could potentially lead to loss or interruption of traffic. |
Minor | A failure that does not significantly affect traffic. |
Not alarmed | A fault that results in a standing condition, not an alarm. |
Not reported | A minor, major, or critical alarm not reported, because it is being masked by another alarm. |
Faults with NR severity always behave as non-alarmed conditions. Notifications for raise and clear events are never generated for these faults, and active occurrences can be discovered only when the active conditions list is polled.
