VPN alarms

VPN alarms include alarms generated by all the PEs in the VPN and alarms generated by the MPLS
VPN system (that is, VPN Connectivity Audit alarms and Configuration changes alarms). MVM
will inform you of the changes of configurations in access topology and changes of inter-CE
connectivity in service topology in time.

Functions

which is called auto acknowledge. Other alarms will be acknowledged by the administrators,
which is called manual acknowledge.
