ABSTRACT:
In a communications network, a system and method for fault notification and correlation. The system includes a notification collector that serves as an intermediary for processing fault notifications. If the fault notification volume exceeds a defined threshold, such that in the prior art could involve dropped notifications, the notification collector processes the critical fault notifications. The notification collector may also assign a higher priority to processing the fault notifications than the faulty components do for generating the fault notifications. In this manner, the need for a fault correlation subsystem is reduced.
