ABSTRACT:
A system or a method is designed to detect and suppress faults on network elements located in various logical groups. The system and method of fault status suppression in a communications network includes receiving fault data from a detector identifying fault status of a network element; mapping logical group of the detector and the network element; and suppressing fault on the network element when the detector and the network element are in different logical groups and there is a fault on a device providing communication between the logical groups.
