3.1. Alarms

Alarms is used for sending and monitoring the alarm states on a T-1 or E-1 line. However, if you are already using LineAdmin to put lines into service, you may not need to use Alarms because LineAdmin displays much of the same information. Overall, LineAdmin is a more useful tool and should be used instead of Alarms in most cases. See Section 3.15, "LineAdmin".

Operating Systems: Windows, Linux

Command Line: alarms [parameter_list]

The Alarms utility uses the following command line parameters:
