Alarm Troubleshooting
Generally, an AIS is a special SONET signal that tells the receiving node that the sending node has no
valid signal available to send. AIS is not considered an error. The AIS condition is raised by the receiving
node on each input when the node sees the signal AIS instead of a real signal. In most cases when this
condition is raised, an upstream node is raising an alarm to indicate a signal failure; all nodes
downstream from it only raise some type of AIS. This condition clears when you resolve the problem on
the upstream node.
