Step 1 In the node, network, or card view, click the Alarms tab.

Step 2 Click the Filter button at the lower-left of the bottom toolbar.

The Alarm Filter Dialog box appears, showing the General tab.

In the General tab Show Severity area, you can choose which alarm severities will show through the alarm filter and provision a time period during which filtered alarms show through the filter. To change the alarm severities shown in the filter, go to Step 3. To change the time period filter for the alarms, go to Step 4.

Step 3 In the Show Severity area, click the check boxes for the severities [Critical (CR), Major (MJ), Minor (MN), or Not Alarmed (NA)] that you want to be reported at the network level. Leave severity check boxes unchecked to prevent them from appearing.

When alarm filtering is disabled, all alarms show.

Step 4 In the Time area, click the Show alarms between time limits check box to enable it; then click the up and down arrows in the From Date, To Date, and Time fields to modify the period of alarms shown.

To modify filter parameters for conditions, continue with Step 5. If you do not need to modify them, continue with Step 6.

Step 5 Click the Conditions tab.

When alarm filtering is enabled, conditions in the Show list are visible and conditions in the Hide list are invisible.

To move conditions individually from the Show list to the Hide list, click the > button.

To move conditions individually from the Hide list to the Show list, click the < button.

To move conditions collectively from the Show list to the Hide list, click the >> button.

To move conditions collectively from the Hide list to the Show list, click the << button.

Note Conditions include alarms.

Step 6 Click Apply and OK.

Alarm and condition filtering parameters are enforced when alarm filtering is enabled (see the “DLP-E155 Enable Alarm Filtering” task on page 17-44), and are not enforced when alarm filtering is disabled (see the “DLP-E157 Disable Alarm Filtering” task on page 17-47).
