    • any defects that occurred in the last minute — loss of 
    signal LOS, out of frame OOF, alarm indication signal AIS
    • the number of milliseconds of short term alarms in the last 
    minute — loss of signal LOS, out of frame OOF, alarm 
    indication signal AIS, remote alarm indication RAI. 
    A shortterm alarm is declared when the detected defects 
    persist for tens of milliseconds.
    A carrier failure alarm (CFA) is a duration of carrier system 
    outage. CFA types reported can be mapped to CFAs defined in 
    TIA-547A and TR62411 as follows:
    The criteria for declaring and clearing the alarms is selectable 
    to meet those in TIA-547A or TR64211.

    Working with fractional PRIInstaller password required
    When you purchase PRI from your service provider, you can 
    request the number of B-channels that are allocated for you to 
    use. For example, you may want to use only 12 B-channels 
    instead of 23 B-channels. If this is your situation, you should 
    disable all the B-channels that you do not need.
    It is recommended that the number of lines that are 
    deprovisioned on a DTI card (configured as PRI) be the same 
    as the number of B-channels that are disabled. For example 
    when B-channels 13-23 are disabled, you should deprovision 
    lines 13 to 23.
