5.5 Mapping rule for alarm information elements

5.5.1 For construction of notifyNewAlarm

The following table shows the rule on how to construct the various attributes of notifyNewAlarm (see clause 6.8.1 of TS 32.111-2 [2]).

The first column shows the notifyNewAlarm notification attributes.

The second column shows the "Attributes of the Alarm information element" (see clause 9.3.4.2 of [5]) used by AlarmNotification (see clause 9.3.2 of [5]) produced by VNFM.
