Configuring Forwarding Thresholds
You can define notification thresholds for bridge port forwarding levels and then
have SPMA use those thresholds to do one or more of the following:
• Color code the Bridge Port display boxes
• Send Internet mail to a registered user
• Launch a program on your management workstation
To open the Forwarding Thresholds window:
1. Click button 3 anywhere within a Bridge Port display box in the Bridge View to
display the Port menu.
2. In the Port menu, click button 3 on Forwarding Thresholds —>Transparent
to open the Forwarding Thresholds window.
NOTE
The statistics shown in the Bridge Port Statistics window reflect a “snapshot” of the
statistics from the time the window was opened. To refresh the statistics, you must close
this window and open it again.
