Module: CIENA-CES-ALARM-MIB
OID (symbolic): CIENA-CES-ALARM-MIB::cienaCesAlarmActiveTimeStamp

Description: This object indicates the UTC timestamp for the alarm.
What is cienaCesAlarmActiveTimeStamp?
Exactly as described, this is the UTC time this specific alarm instance was raised. Because it's tied to the active-alarm row rather than the historical log, comparing this value against the current time tells an operator exactly how long a currently-open fault has been outstanding, which matters for SLA and escalation-timer math elsewhere in this MIB. For example, a timestamp of 2026-08-07T03:14:02Z on an alarm still present when polled at 05:00 UTC tells the operator the fault has been open for nearly two hours.
