Alarm Configuration

NOTES

Neither the Alarms or Events list is interface-specific; both will be displayed the same for every interface.

Note, too, that alarms and events which have been configured via the Basic Alarms window are not displayed in and cannot be accessed or edited from the Advanced Alarm/Event List window.

The top portion of the window displays the usual device information boxes; the remainder of the window contains the Alarms Watch and Events Watch lists, and the command buttons that allow you to create, edit, and delete entries in those lists, or refresh the display.

The fields in the Alarms Watch display include:

Index

The index is a number that uniquely identifies each

 

alarm. Index numbers are user-defined; you can use any

 

indexing scheme that works for you. These numbers are

 

permanently assigned to their associated alarms;

 

however, index numbers made available by the deletion

 

of existing alarms can be assigned to new alarms, as

 

needed. Note that indices 2000 to 3999 are reserved and

 

unavailable.

Interval

Indicates the amount of time, in seconds, over which the

 

selected variable will be sampled. At the end of the

 

interval, the sample value is compared to both the rising

 

and falling thresholds configured for the alarm.

Sample

Indicates whether the sample value to be compared to

 

the thresholds is an absolute, or total value — that is, the

 

total value counted for the selected variable — or a

 

relative, or delta value — the difference between the

 

value counted at the end of the current interval and the

 

value counted at the end of the previous interval.

LoThrshld

Indicates the set value for the low, or falling threshold.

Event #

Indicates the event index number that the falling

 

threshold points to: this is the event that will be triggered

 

if the falling threshold is met or crossed. If the value for

 

this field is zero, no event will be triggered.

HiThrshld

Indicates the set value for the high, or rising threshold.

Event #

Indicates the event index number that the rising

 

threshold points to: the event that will be triggered if the

 

rising threshold is met or crossed. If the value for this

 

field is zero, no event will be triggered.

Status

Indicates the status of the alarm: valid, invalid, or

 

underCreation. An alarm that is invalid is not functional;

 

it may be referring to a MIB component that is inactive
