Working With Fault Detection

The Fault Detection screen contains a list box for setting fault detection and response policy. You set the sensitivity level at which a network problem should generate an alert and send it to the Alert Log.

The sensitivity levels for both list boxes are:

■Never

■Low Sensitivity

■Medium Sensitivity

■High Sensitivity

The Fault Detection settings are:

■High Sensitivity. This policy directs the switch to send all alerts to the Alert Log. This setting is most effective on networks that have no or few problems.

■Medium Sensitivity. (the default setting) This policy directs the switch to send alerts related to network problems to the Alert Log. If you want to be notified of problems which cause a noticeable slowdown on the network, use this setting.

■Low Sensitivity. This policy directs the switch to send only the most severe alerts to the Alert Log and to rarely or never disable a port generating the alert. This policy is most effective on a network that normally has a lot of problems and you want to be informed of only the most severe ones.

■Never. Use this setting if you do not want network events displayed in the Alert Log.

The Fault Detection Window also contains three Change Control Buttons.

They are:

■Apply Changes. This button stores the settings you have selected for all future sessions with the Browser Interface until you decide to change them.

■Clear Change. This button removes your settings and returns the settings for both list boxes to the levels they were at in the last saved detection setting session.

■Reset to Default Settings. This button reverts the policy setting to Medium Sensitivity for Log Network Problems.
