Event (Sub-Type) Configuration Parameters

General Event Parameters

Parameter Name

Description

Permitted Values

 

 

 

severity

Severity level of the event.

Either:

 

 

CRITICAL

 

 

MAJOR

 

 

MINOR

 

 

WARNING

 

 

CLEARED

 

 

UNKNOWN

 

 

INFO

 

 

 

is-ticketable

Determines whether the alarm will generate a new

True (ticketable)

 

ticket, if there is no root-cause alarm to correlate to.

False (not ticketable)

 

 

 

functionality-type

Determines the event type.

Either:

 

 

SERVICE

 

 

 

(Cisco ANA-generated)

 

 

SYSLOG

 

 

TRAP

 

 

 

 

Root Cause Configuration Parameters

These parameters define the behavior of the alarm when serving as the root cause of other alarms.

Name

Description

Permitted Values

 

 

 

is-correlation-allowed

Defines whether the alarm may serve as a

True (correlates) or

 

root cause, and allow child alarms to

False (will not

 

correlate to it.

correlate)

 

 

 

short description

Textual description that describes the event.

User defined text

 

 

 

gw-correlation-timeout

The period of time in milliseconds for how

Positive integer

 

long an alarm with the severity Clear or Info

 

 

is open for sequence. Alarms with

 

 

non-cleared severity are always open for a

 

 

consequent alarm. This parameter is

 

 

deprecated for non-clearing events (its value

 

 

is defined as a very large number, so that it

 

 

does not interfere with correlation decisions

 

 

from a VNE). This parameter only affects

 

 

chaining to clearing events.

3.6 specifications

Cisco Systems 3.6 marks a significant advancement in network technology, presenting an innovative suite of features and capabilities designed to enhance performance, security, and flexibility for modern networks. As a leader in networking solutions, Cisco continues to evolve its offerings, ensuring they meet the demands of businesses operating in increasingly complex environments.

One of the standout features of Cisco Systems 3.6 is the introduction of enhanced automation capabilities. Automation reduces the manual effort required for network management, allowing IT teams to focus on strategic initiatives rather than routine maintenance. The system leverages advanced machine learning algorithms to analyze network behavior, detect anomalies, and suggest optimizations, which enhances operational efficiency and uptime.

In terms of security, Cisco Systems 3.6 integrates robust cybersecurity measures directly into its architecture. It incorporates Cisco's SecureX framework, which provides centralized visibility and control across the entire security stack. This feature allows organizations to respond rapidly to threats, leveraging threat intelligence and automated response mechanisms to mitigate risks effectively.

Another notable characteristic is improved compatibility with cloud environments. With the rise of hybrid cloud models, Cisco Systems 3.6 offers seamless integration capabilities that enable businesses to connect their on-premises networks with public and private cloud infrastructures. This ensures greater flexibility and enhanced performance for cloud-based applications.

Cisco also emphasizes software-defined networking (SDN) with its updated platform. This approach allows for greater agility, enabling network administrators to programmatically manage resources through a centralized interface. SDN facilitates rapid deployment of services and applications, optimizing the overall user experience.

Cisco Systems 3.6 also boasts enhanced collaboration tools, fostering improved communication across teams. Featuring advanced video conferencing and messaging capabilities, it enhances productivity and streamlines processes, regardless of employee location. These tools are designed to support remote work environments, which have become increasingly important in today's business landscape.

Furthermore, energy efficiency is a core aspect of Cisco Systems 3.6. The system is designed to optimize power consumption and reduce overall operating costs, aligning with global sustainability goals. The efficient design prioritizes environmentally friendly practices while still delivering high performance.

In conclusion, Cisco Systems 3.6 represents a comprehensive evolution in networking technology, focusing on automation, security, cloud integration, SDN, collaboration, and energy efficiency. These features position Cisco as a pivotal player in supporting organizations as they navigate the complexities of digital transformation and the future of networking.
