Alarm Display
In the card, node, or network CTC view, click the Alarms tab to display the alarms for that card, node, or network. The Alarms
window shows alarms in compliance with Telcordia GR-253-CORE. This means that if a network problem causes two alarms, such
as loss of frame (LOF) and loss of signal (LOS), CTC only shows the LOS alarm in this window because it supersedes the LOF and
replaces it.

The Path Width column in the Alarms and Conditions tabs expands on the alarmed object information contained in the access identifier
(AID) string (such as “STS-4-1-3”) by giving the number of STSs contained in the alarmed path. For example, the Path Width tells
you whether a critical alarm applies to an STS1 or an STS48c. The column reports the width as a 1, 3, 6, 12, 48, etc. as appropriate,
understood to be “STS-N.”
