Gx Gx is a reference point located between the Policy
and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) and the Policy
and Charging Enforcement Function (PCEF). Three
types of networks namely, 3G UMTS, 4G LTE and 4G
WiMax use the 3GPP Gx interface as the standard
policy control interface.

This notification is issued when ccsBMAStateChangeNotifEnabled
is set to 'true', and the billing mediation agent changes
state. There is one exception: No notification is issued
for state changes involving 'echowait' because this would
cause an excessive number of notifications.
A notification of this type is generated for the service
specified by ccsServiceNameNotifInfo if the number of
failed responses received on the Traffic Processor
from the network server is equal to or lower than
ccsNetServerResponseFailClearThreshold when
the timer ccsAdControlAlarmUpdateTimer expires.
The notification is also generated when the update timer,
the alarm threshold, or the clear threshold is changed.
The notification is generated only when the alarm
(ciscoContentServicesNetServerResponseFailExceeded)
exists. The ccsAdControlNotifEnabled has to set to 'true'
to generate the notification.
The timer will be restarted after the notification is generated.
A notification of this type is generated for the service
specified by ccsServiceNameNotifInfo if the number of the
responses that are received on the Traffic Processor from
the network server and exceed the response time
(ccsNetServerFirstPayloadResponseTime) for the
first payload packet is equal to or lower than
ccsNetServerResponseTimeFailClearThreshold
when the timer ccsAdControlAlarmUpdateTimer expires.
The notification is also generated when the update timer,
the response time, the alarm threshold, or the clear threshold
is changed. The notification is generated only when the alarm
(ciscoContentServicesNetServerResponseTimeExceeded) exists,
The ccsAdControlNotifEnabled has to set to 'true'
to generate the notification.
The update timer will be restarted after the notification
is generated.
ciscoContentServicesProtocolParseFailAlarmCleared
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.12
A notification of this type is generated for the service
specified by ccsServiceNameNotifInfo if the number of errors
that are received on the Traffic Processor and fail the
protocol parsing is equal to or lower than
ccsProcolParseFailedAlarmThreshold
when the timer ccsAdControlAlarmUpdateTimer expires.
The notification is also generated when the update timer,
the alarm threshold, or the clear threshold is changed.
The notification is generated only when the alarm
(ciscoContentServicesProtocolParseFailExceeded) exists.
The ccsAdControlNotifEnabled has to set to 'true'
to generate the notification.
The update timer will be restarted after the notification
is generated.
ciscoContentServicesUserEntriesThreshold
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.13
This notification is issued when
ccsUserEntriesThresholdNotifEnabled is set to 'true', and when
the number of users exceeds warning threshold or critical
threshold or drops below the normal threshold.
The critical threshold limit is 100% of
ccsgsUserEntriesThreshold.
The warning threshold limit takes a default value of 85% of
ccsgsUserEntriesThreshold, which can be reconfigured in the
application code via a CLI.
The normal threshold limit is 5% less than the warning
threshold.
When the number of users in the system increases and reaches
the warning threshold, a warning notification is sent. When the
number of users again increases to reach the critical
threshold, a critical notification is sent. When it drops below
normal threshold, a normal notification is sent.
ccsgsUserCurrent indicates the total number of users with one
or more active sessions on the system.
ccsgsUserEntriesThreshold indicates the maximum number of users
allowed on the system.
ccsgUserSessionSeverityNotifInfo indicates the severity of the
notifications ciscoContentServicesUserEntriesThreshold and
ciscoContentServicesSessionThreshold.
ciscoContentServicesSessionThreshold
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.14
This notification is issued when
ccsSessionThresholdNotifEnabled is set to 'true', and when
the number of sessions exceeds warning threshold or critical
threshold or drops below the normal threshold.
The critical threshold limit is 100% of ccsgsSessionThreshold.
The warning threshold limit takes a default value of 85% of
ccsgsSessionThreshold, which can be reconfigured in the
application code via a CLI.
The normal threshold limit is 5% less than the warning
threshold.
When the number of sessions in the system increases and reaches
the warning threshold, a warning notification is sent. When the
number of sessions again increases to reach the critical
threshold, a critical notification is sent. When it drops below
normal threshold, a normal notification is sent.
ccsgsSessionCurrent indicates the total number of sessions on
the system. A session corresponds to a TCP/UDP flow.
ccsgsSessionThreshold indicates the maximum number of sessions
allowed on the system.
ccsgUserSessionSeverityNotifInfo indicates the severity of the
notifications ciscoContentServicesUserEntriesThreshold and
ciscoContentServicesSessionThreshold.
The TP index responsible for the threshold crossing is
specified by the ccsTPIndexNotifInfo varbind
ciscoContentServicesQuotaMgrStateChange
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.2
This notification is issued when ccsQuotaMgrStateChangeNotifEnabled
is set to 'true', and the quota manager changes state.
There is one exception: No notification is issued for
state changes involving 'echowait' because this would
cause an excessive number of notifications.
ciscoContentServicesUserDbStateChange
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.3
This notification is issued when ccsUserDbStateChangeNotifEnabled
is set to 'true', and the user database changes state.
ciscoContentServicesBMALostRecordEvent
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.4
This notification is issued when ccsBMAStateChangeNotifEnabled
is set to 'true', and accounting records,
should be sent to the billing mediation agent, must be
discarded.
Initially, ccsBMALostRecords is set to 0.
When a record is discarded, ccsBMALostRecords
is incremented, a period timer is started, and this
notification is issued. The NMS and the agent save
this value. The agent continues to increment
ccsBMALostRecords each time a record is lost.
When the period timer expires, the agent compares
the current value of ccsBMALostRecords with
the previous (saved) value. If the values are equal
this notification is issued again, signalling to the
NMS that the condition has been cleared. Otherwise,
the timer is restarted to monitor the next period.
When a record is lost and no period timer is active,
this notification is issued and the above procedure
is repeated.
ciscoContentServicesQuotaMgrLostRecordEvent
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.5
This notification is issued when ccsQuotaMgrStateChangeNotifEnabled
is set to 'true', and request records to be sent to the
quota manager must be discarded. The processing
is the same as described in the description for
ccsBMALostRecordEvent.
ciscoContentServicesUserThresholdExceeded
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.6
This notification is issued when
ccsUserThresholdExceededNotifEnabled
is set to 'true', and when actual users limit
exceeds threshold which is set by ccsgsUserThreshold.
ciscoContentServicesNetServerResponseFailExceeded
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.7
A notification of this type is generated for the service
specified by ccsServiceNameNotifInfo when the number of
failed responses received on the Traffic Processor specified
by ccsTPIndexNotifInfo from the network server exceeds the
alarm threshold ccsNetServerResponseFailAlarmThreshold
within the interval ccsAdControlAlarmUpdateTimer. The alarm
is not generated repeatly on the same alarm state.
The ccsAdControlNotifEnabled has to set to 'true' to generate
the notification.
The timer will be restarted after the notification is
generated.
ciscoContentServicesNetServerResponseTimeExceeded
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.8
A notification of this type is generated for the service
specified by ccsServiceNameNotifInfo when the
number of the responses that are received on the Traffic
Processor from the network server and exceed the response
time (ccsNetServerFirstPayloadResponseTime) for the
first payload packet exceeds the alarm theshold
ccsNetServerResponseTimeFailAlarmThreshold,
within the interval ccsAdControlAlarmUpdateTimer. The alarm
is not generated repeatly on the same alarm state.
The ccsAdControlNotifEnabled has to set to 'true' to generate
the notification.
The timer will be restarted after the notification is generated.
ciscoContentServicesProtocolParseFailExceeded
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.597.0.9
A notification of this type is generated for the service
