Methods, systems, and computer program products for providing network outage information
First Claim
1. A method for providing network equipment status information, the method comprising:
- receiving alarm data for an event from a plurality of sources, the alarm data including a plurality of alarm records each including a site identifier;
processing the alarm data to create report data, the processing including assigning an attribute of failed to each of the site identifiers that are specified in more than a threshold number of the alarm records, wherein the report data comprises at least digital loop carrier information;
transmitting the report data to a mechanized loop test (MLT) testing system capable of generating MLT test results; and
using the MLT test results to adjust the digital loop carrier information included in the report data, wherein the digital loop carrier information specifies a quantity of digital carrier loop lines that are out of service.

Abstract
Exemplary embodiments relate to methods, systems, user devices and computer program products for providing network status information. Methods include receiving alarm data for an event from a plurality of sources. The alarm data includes a plurality of alarm records each including a site identifier. The alarm data is processed to create report data. The processing includes assigning an attribute of failed to each of the site identifiers that are specified in more than a threshold number of the alarm records. The report data comprises at least digital loop carrier information. The report data is transmitted to a mechanized loop test (MLT) testing system capable of generating MLT test results. The MLT test results are used to adjust the digital loop carrier information included in the report data, wherein the digital loop carrier information specifies a quantity of digital carrier loop lines that are out of service.
