Description: This variable shall be supported by an NE product if support for real-time current alarm list in NMS is expected. When supported, the value of this variable in alarm clearing trap shall equal to the value of this variable in the corresponding alarm trap. In alarm traps, the value of this variable shall equal to the value of the caAlarmIndex of the corresponding alarm entry in the caCurrentAlarmListTable (both in case of alarm and alarm clearing traps). When this variable has value 0, it means that no alarm correlation is present and that the NMS should not assume alarm correlation support from NE concerning the corresponding alarm. This means that either alarm clearing trap will not be sent by NE or if alarm clearing trap will be sent by NE, it does not support correlation to the corresponding alarm trap.

When this object is accessed using GET operation, this object shall contain the value of the corresponding variable in the last regularly sent alarm trap i.e. in cases of re-sending an alarm trap as a result of NMS operation (ie. via alResendTrapId object), this object shall not be updated.
