4.Notiﬁcation Conditions make your Notiﬁcation Options subject to deﬁned conditions:

a.If you check the In—Out—Inbox, notiﬁcation takes place when the threshold passes from one range to another and then back. The number in the Delay box speciﬁes the number of times this transition is to take place before notiﬁcation is launched. TheCurrent box counts down the transitions.

b.If you select the Remain—Inbox, notiﬁcation takes place when the threshold passes from one range to another, and stays in that range for the number of polling cycles speciﬁed in theDelay box.

c.If you check the Once Only box, notiﬁcation only takes place the ﬁrst time the Delay count is reached.

5.The Save option gives you three choices as to how the options and conditions you have selected will be saved.

a.If you choose Disabled, none of the options and conditions you have chosen will be saved to the bridge database.

b.If you select As Default, the chosen options and conditions will be saved as default values. The saved information will be used for any IP not having an entry in the bridge database.

c.If you select By IP, the options and conditions chosen for that IP will be saved to the bridge database, and the next time the application is run for this device the saved values will be used.

6.When you’re ﬁnished setting thresholds and notiﬁcation options, click button 3 on the Apply button and choose either Selected Only or All. Selected Only applies the selected Forwarding Thresholds settings to the ports that are highlighted in the scroll list near the top of the Forwarding Thresholds window.
