3. Cause 3 ICP may be caused by other disks, such as the matrix and master of 1660, SYNTH16 of 1662, and the MB board of 1642.

Alarm processing methods:

1. Cause 1 for RUM first verify whether the site per plug board, such as no plug board can be configured in the network management (for the configuration of the circuit or as a clock source, you need to delete these configurations), of course, the site per plug board, by the configuration of the circuit or the clock source need to be carefully verified whether it is garbage data in the deletion.

2. Cause 2 to replace the corresponding fault disk

3. If the ICP alarm does not disappear after replacing the faulty disk, you should consider that it may be caused by other matrix, master control, SYNTH16, MB disk, etc. You can first do a test on these suspected boards. You can first plug and unplug these suspected boards (pay attention to the impact on business and monitoring, generally the main control board plug and unplug only affects the monitoring; matrix and SYNTH16 are protected, if there is no abnormal state or the second failure, plug and unplug the spare does not affect the business (to plug and unplug the current main matrix need to be switched to the spare role before plugging, switch and then wait for 15 minutes to let it synchronize and then operate)), and then locate the faulty boards and then replace the faulty boards. board and then replace the faulty board.

The treatment method is as follows: first, do the self loop of the corresponding ports on both sides of the pigtail, see which optical port fails to appear after the self loop, then replace the optical board. Do optical port self-loop need to pay attention to the following issues: 1: pay attention to the optical power, according to different CD-ROM to add different attenuators, to avoid overloading, optical port parameters, see \ 10.244.9.52 etwork management group Learning Materials (GPON PTN) Alcatel training materials/ optical port parameters .xls>;2: self-loop before the measurement of the optical power, to avoid misjudgment due to faulty pigtails, connectors, etc. not plugged properly. To avoid misjudgment due to faulty pigtails, connectors not plugged in properly, etc.; 3: For optical ports involved in MS-SPRING ring protection, the pigtails must be manually " force swith " before the self-ringing of the optical ports, and must be cleared of force swithing after the self-ringing is lifted! This is because the level of " force swith " is greater than " los of signal ", so that even if the service is more than 5 minutes after the self-loop, it will not be reversed and will not affect the service.

5. Reason 5: For Alcatel CD-ROMs with number beginning with 8DG ( L64.2E ), the optical module may hang and not emit light after an LOS alarm occurs, so you need to plug and unplug the optical module on site.

Processing methods are as follows: first of all, the corresponding ports on both sides of the tail fiber self-loop, self-loop to check the performance of the optical port, see that the CD-ROM still has error codes, then replace that piece of optical board. Do optical port self-loop need to pay attention to the following issues: 1: pay attention to the optical power, according to different CD-ROM to add different attenuators, to avoid overloading, optical port parameters, see \ 10.244.9.52 etwork management group Learning Materials (GPON PTN) Alcatel training materials/ optical port parameters .xls>;2: self-loop before the measurement of optical power, to avoid misjudgment due to faulty pigtails, connectors, etc. not plugged properly. To avoid misjudgment due to faulty pigtails, connectors not plugged in properly, etc.; 3: For optical ports involved in MS-SPRING ring protection, the pigtails must be manually " force swith " before the self-ringing of the optical ports, and must be cleared of force swithing after the self-ringing is lifted! This is because the level of " force swith " is greater than " los of signal ", so that even if the service is more than 5 minutes after the self-loop, it will not be reversed and will not affect the service.
