Status Reporting Features

■High Sensitivity. This policy directs the switch to send all alerts to the Alert Log. This setting is most effective on networks that have none or few problems.

■Medium Sensitivity. 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. 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. Disables the Alert Log and transmission of alerts (traps) to the management server (in cases where a network management tool such as HP TopTools for Hubs & Switches is in use). Use this option when you don’t want to use the Alert Log.

The Fault Detection Window also contains three Change Control Buttons:

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

■ Clear Changes. This button removes your settings and returns the settings for the list box to the level it was at in the last saved detection- setting session.

■ Reset to Default Settings. This button reverts the policy setting to
