Digital cellular telecommunications system (Phase 2+); Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS); LTE; Telecommunication management; Fault Management; Part 2: Alarm Integration Reference Point (IRP): Information Service (IS) (V12.1.0; 3GPP TS 32.1
"The present document defines the Alarm Integration Reference Point (IRP) Information Service (IS)@ which addresses the alarm surveillance aspects of Fault Management (FM)@ applied to the N Interface. The purpose of the AlarmIRP is to define an interface through which a ""system"" (typically a Network Element Manager or a Network Element) can communicate alarm information for its managed objects to one or several Manager Systems (typically Network Management Systems). The Alarm IRP IS defines the semantics of alarms and the interactions visible across the reference point in a protocol neutral way. It defines the semantics of the operations and notifications visible in the IRP. It does not define the syntax or encoding of the operations@ notifications and their parameters."
