Threshold

This menu displays the current alarms that are set and allows alarms to be added or modified.

Alarms can help you locate problems or faults on the network. When you set an alarm threshold for an activity on a hub, you instruct the hub to take a specific action when the value falls above or below the set threshold.

Table 5-11 describes each field in the Threshold menu.

ΔNote: For instructions on using this menu, see “Setting Alarms” on page 4-18.
