Current Level,
No Squelch
The Broadmore is shipped with th e squelch level
set at “below cu rrent level.” The Squelch level
allows you to control the trap volume with a single
“level” setting. The se verity of the last “state” tra p
is remembered, and future traps will be sent only if
the setting for the squelch level permits their
severity.
Only traps with mat chi ng “set” and “clear”
instances become the “outstanding” trap for
squelching. These are limited to the traps for card/
port major and minor alarms. Eac h port will
attempt to “set” a tra p when an alarm first trips, in
the absence of squelching, and a matching “clear”
will be sent when that port's alarms dissipate.
Trap Time Out 0-3600 Enter Time Out as a value in minutes between 0
and 3600. When a trap triggers, it may be
squelched if there is an outstanding trap of serious
priority. The Timeout value guards against an old
trap that is no longer relevant preventing any future
traps.
The timeout value guards against an old, no longer
relevant trap preventing any future traps. When the
time expires, the outstanding trap is discarded.
Enter Timeout as a value in seconds between 0 and
3600 (60 minutes) with 1200 (20 minutes) as a
recommended initial value.
