Alarm Configuration

3-10 Advanced Alarm Configuration

Description Provides a detailed description of the condition which
triggered the alarm, including whether it was a Rising or
Falling alarm, the Value which triggered the alarm, and
the configured Threshold that was crossed.
Each log will hold only a finite number of entries, which is determined by the
resources available on the device; when the log is full, the oldest entries will be
replaced by new ones.
Advanced Alarm Configuration
The Basic Alarm Configuration window provides a quick and easy way to set up
some basic alarms for all of the interfaces installed in your SmartSwitch 2000.
However, if you prefer more control over the parameters of the alarms you set (as
well as their associated events and actions) and/or a wider array of choices for
each variable, the Advanced Alarm feature provides a powerful and flexible
means for configuring alarms, events, and actions to suit your particular
networking needs.
