Alarms and Events

Tooltips

Tooltips in the Alarms and Events tool provide information about an Alarm. When the cursor is held over the Index field of a row in the Alarms Table a tooltip appears.

Figure 6-2. Alarm Tooltip

The tooltip provides information about the Alarm’s definition. In addition, it shows the ‘raw’ number of packets (or octets) which will generate a Rising or Falling Event. The raw number is the actual number of packets (or octets) that must enter the port in order to generate an Event. This number is equal to the defined rate times the interval.

For example, if an Alarm is defined for Broadcast packets with an Interval of 15 seconds, a Rising Threshold of 1,000 packets per second and a Falling Threshold of 100 packets per second, the raw number for a Rising Event is 15,000 and for a Falling Event 1,500. If 15,000 or more Broadcast packets enter the port in a 15 second interval, a Rising Event is generated.

The following table provides a list of the fields in Tooltip with their descriptions.
