Alarms
Step 1 Choose Setup > Alarms > Actions.
The Alarm Action table displays any configured Alarms.
Step 2 Choose the alarm event you want to remove, and click the Delete button.
Thresholds The NAM Traffic Analyzer will inspect incoming performance records and apply a configured set of
thresholds to the most recent interval of data to detect threshold violations. You can use the NAM GUI
to set up alarm thresholds for variables with values that trigger alarms.
Note You could receive two alarms for the same occurrence if both the source and the destination are in the
same site.
The NAM Threshold Alarms window (Setup > Alarms > Thresholds) displays already-configured
thresholds. If you hover over the arrow next to the threshold Name, as shown in Figure 2-4, a detailed
view of the selected threshold will display.
