ATM-NTWK (ATM Network Error)
In an ATM PNC configuration, a proprietary Center Stage Switch (CSS) is replaced by an ATM
network. Because CSS nodes are replaced by the ATM network in the ATM PNC configuration,
SNI boards are no longer needed. In place of the SNI boards, ATM Expansion Interface (EI) or
ATM Circuit Emulation Service (CES) boards are connected to an ATM switch port over a
fiber-optic cable. The ports on the ATM switch are under control of its maintenance software.
Refer to ATM Installation, Upgrades, and Administration using Avaya Communication Manager,
555-233-124, for more information.
An error against ATM-NTWK indicates a problem in the ATM network (including the ATM
switch) that is affecting service quality. These error events are either:
● Reported by the ATM network to an ATM EI or ATM CES board
● Detected by either the ATM EI or ATM CES board itself
Since these errors are not related to the ATM EI or ATM CES board, they are not reported
against the ATM-EI or ATM-TRK MO. However, some of these errors invoke alarms that require
action by the system’s maintenance software, while other log-only errors require no action.

ATM-NTWK location WRN ATM Network Error
1. AT indicates it is an ATM switch-related address, UU is the connection number. The connection
number can be converted into a board location with display atm pnc UU, which shows the
translations for the board that reported the ATM network error. P indicates if the ATM-EI board
(reporting the ATM network error) is on the PNC’s A side or the B side. If the system is simplex, only A
is valid.
The Cause Code/Error Type information is shown in Table 40: Error codes and Aux Data
values ATM-NTWK. These are the possible errors that can be logged against ATM-NTWK.
