Basic Alarm Configuration 3-5
Alarm Configuration
Status
Displays the current status of the selected alarm type for each interface: Enabled
or Disabled. Remember, this status refers only to the alarm type which is selected
at the top of the window; each of the other two alarm types can have different
states.
Log/Trap
Indicates whether or not each alarm has been configured to create a silent log of
event occurrences and the alarms that triggered them, and whether or not each
alarm has been configured to issue a trap in response to a rising or falling alarm
condition. Possible values are log, trap, log&trap, or none.
Polling Interval
Displays the amount of time, in seconds, over which the selected alarm variable
will be sampled. At the end of the interval, the sample value will be compared to
both the rising and falling thresholds (described below). You can set any interval
from 1 to 65,535 seconds.
Rising Threshold
Displays the high threshold value set for the selected alarm variable. Values used
to compare to the thresholds are relative, or delta values (the difference between
the value counted at the end of the current interval and the value counted at the
end of the previous interval); be sure to set your thresholds accordingly.
Rising Action
Indicates whether or not a rising alarm occurrence will initiate any actions in
response to the alarm condition: Enable if bridging will be enabled at the selected
interface in response to a rising alarm, Disable if bridging will be disabled at the
selected interface in response to a rising alarm, and None if no actions have been
configured for the selected alarm. Note that the Action fields will be unavailable
for devices configured to operate in SecureFast switching mode.
Falling Threshold
Displays the low threshold value set for the selected alarm variable. Values used
to compare to the thresholds are relative, or delta values (the difference between
the value counted at the end of the current interval and the value counted at the
end of the previous interval); be sure to set your thresholds accordingly.
Falling Action
Indicates whether or not a falling alarm occurrence will initiate any actions in
response to the alarm condition: Enable if bridging will be enabled at the selected
interface in response to a falling alarm, Disable if bridging will be disabled in
response to a falling alarm, and None if no actions have been configured for the
selected alarm. Note that the Action fields will be unavailable for devices
configured to operate in SecureFast switching mode.
