Wireless Receive Signal Status
Definition: The Wireless Receive Signal Status indicates if the receiver is able to
demodulate the transmit signal from the remote end of the link.
Cause and action: If this alarm is unaccompanied by other alarms, the cause will often be
due to a deep fade of the wireless channel. This could be caused by many environmental
effects such as rain fades in the higher frequency bands or ducting for long links.
Managing email alerts
The management agent can be configured to generate alerts by electronic mail when
certain events occur. The email message configuration procedure is described in Task 9:
Configuring alarms and messages on page 6-90. The alerts mirror the SNMP traps defined
in Table 259.
Managing SNMP traps
The PTP 800 supports SNMP v2 remote management and provides a comprehensive range
of alarms. Table 259 lists the SNMP traps that the PTP 800 supports, their significance
and possible causes.
The SNMP configuration procedure is described in Task 9: Configuring alarms and
messages on page 6-90. The traps may be disabled totally or individual traps disabled.
These traps mirror the system status and alarm information displayed on the System
Summary and System Status pages.
