Configuring Port Alarm Thresholds
You can configure the switch to generate alarms for selected events. Configuring
an alarm involves choosing an event type, rising and falling triggers, a sample
window, and finally enabling or disabling the alarm. You can configure port alarm
thresholds for the following port events using Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007 or the
CLI:
Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) errors
Decode errors
Inter-switch Link (ISL) connections
Device logins
Device logouts
Loss-of-signal errors
To configure port threshold alarms using Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007, do the
following:
1. Open the Switch menu in the faceplate display, and select Port Threshold
Alarm Configuration.
2. The Port Threshold Alarm Configuration dialog prompts you to enable or
disable all alarms, select an event, set triggers, set a sample window and
enable or disable an individual alarm. For more information, refer to the
Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007 User Guide for your switch.
To configure port threshold alarms using the command line interface, use the
Set Config Threshold command. For more information, refer to the Command
Line Interface Guide for your switch.
