To operate a network, it is important to get an overview about the currently raised alarms. The application offers basic fault management of devices supporting ONF-TR-532. The alarms are classified according to the severity level (warning, minor, major, critical).
Overview Fulat Fault management:
Specification
“Fault” User Interface should be implemented to show the Alarm notifications of the devices.
...
The graphical user interface is separated in three Expansion Panels.into three tabs:
- Current Alarm Notifications
- Alarm Notifications
- Alarm Log
The table view implements the common ux-framework-table supporting sorting, filtering and pagination on the server.
The following panels shows the tables tabs should show a table with its respective data.
...
Current Problem List
It lists all current active faults in the network. In addition, it also lists alarms sent by the SDN controller itself, which detects connections connection losses to the NetConf server (connectionLossOAM) or which detects connection loss to a device via a mediator to a device (connectionLossNeOAM).

The "export to CSV" button will export the presented current problem list to a CSV File.
Alarm Notifications
As long as the view is openpage is not fully refreshed (the browser reloaded), it lists all alarm notification notifications reached by the SDN Controller. Please note that refreshing the view will start the collection again. Previous alarm notification can be viewed in the alarm log.
Alarm Notifications should be collected in real-time via websockets.
The Alarm Notification panel shows the table with the below columns.

The Fault values are stored on an ElasticSearch database. The REST-API is provided by the ApiGateway.
The index is “sdnevents” the doctype is
- “faultcurrent”- Data for Current Alarm Notifications
- “faultlog”- Data for Alarm Log
...

Data Provider
The data is stored in an ElasticSearch database. The Data-Provider provides a REST-API to read the data.
- Current Problem List
- get the current problem list: read-faultcurrent-list
- Alarm Log
- get the alarm log: read-faultlog-list
- Summary View
- get the fault status: read-status
Note: The alarm notifications are only updated via websockets. No REST-API is provided.
