Alarm Configuration

If you are familiar with the RMON MIB and/or with the original Alarm and Event

TIP functionality provided by SPECTRUM Element Manager (now known as the Advanced Alarm functionality), you will note that the Basic Alarm ConÞguration window combines the three parts of creating a working alarm Ñ conÞguring the alarm itself, conÞguring an event that will announce the occurrence of an alarm (including assigning any actions), and linking the two Ñ into a single step, and handles the details transparently. For more information about the individual steps involved in creating an alarm, see Advanced Alarm ConÞguration, page 4-10.
