Alarm Configuration

Disabling a Basic Alarm

Using the button at the bottom of the window actually performs two functions: it both disables the alarm and deletes the alarm entry (and its associated event and action entries) from device memory to help conserve device resources. In the list box display, the parameters for any “disabled” alarm are automatically reset to their default values.

To disable an alarm:

1.In the top of the window, click to select the variable for which you wish to disable an alarm: Kilobits, Total Errors, or Broadcast/Multicast.

2.In the list box display, click to highlight the interface(s) for which you wish to disable the selected alarm type. (Remember, you can use shift-clickto select a sequential group of interfaces, or ctrl-clickto select any group of interfaces.)

3.Click on . The selected alarm type on the selected interface(s) will be disabled, and the list box display will refresh to reflect those changes.

Viewing the Basic Alarm Log

If you have selected the “log” response for an alarm, and that alarm’s rising and/or falling threshold has been crossed, the Basic Alarms application will create a log of alarm occurrences. If a threshold has been crossed, it will be preceded in the interface list box display by a double greater-than sign (>>). Clicking to select an interface which is so marked will activate the

button; selecting the button will launch the appropriate Basic Alarm Log, Figure 3-2. (Note that selecting more than one interface — even if all selected interfaces have experienced alarm conditions — will inactivate the

button; you can only view a single alarm log at a time.)
