Element Manager Tools Guide.) The display will default to the top of the tree (labeled Internet); there are three ways to locate and/or assign the correct variable:

a.If you know the exact name of the OID whose value you wish to track,

simply enter the name in the Variable field; to verify that you have entered

the name correctly, click on to move the MIBTree display to that OID. (If MIBTree display does not adjust to show the OID you’ve entered, you’ve entered the name incorrectly.)

b.Use the Radar View panel located just left of the MIB Tree panel to adjust the MIB Tree display to the part of the tree that contains the variable you are interested in, then click to open the appropriate folders. (Again, see the Tools Guide for more details on using the Radar View.)

c.Use the scroll bars and click to open the appropriate folders in the MIBTree panel to locate the object you wish you use; click to select it in the panel, and its name will automatically be entered in the Variable field.

If you select an invalid OID — that is, one which does not permit write access — the

TIP message !!Can’t set action on this type!! will be displayed in the Variable field.

If you don’t know the exact spelling of the OID you wish to use for your alarm variable, and you can’t find it by searching through the tree, use the MIBTree utility’s Find feature to locate the OID and determine its exact spelling (and tree location). For more information on the MIBTree panel and its Find capabilities, see Chapter 3, MIB Tools, in the SPECTRUM Element Manager Tools Guide. Note that this Find feature is no longer case-sensitive.

5.Once you have selected the object you wish to set, you must assign the appropriate instance value in the Instance field. If you’re not sure how the object you wish to set is instanced, you can use the MIBTree utility (described in the Tools Guide) to query it; all available instances for the object will be displayed.

6.In the Value field, enter the value you wish to set for the selected object. Again, if you’re not sure what the valid values are for the variable you wish to set, locate the object in the MIBTree utility and use the Details button to obtain more information.

7.Once you’ve configured your action, click on ; the action will be added to the Action Table list in the lower left corner of the window. Note that the window remains open so that you may configure additional new actions or modify existing ones; selecting any action in the Action Table will display that action’s parameters in the window and make them available for editing. When

you have finished configuring your actions, click on

to close the

window.

 

Note that the Action Table will update automatically each time an action is added

or deleted; use the button to update the table at any time.
