Brocade Switch Events

When a Brocade switch generates an event, it assigns a code instead of an event severity level to the event. The software assigns an event severity level to the event according to the event's code. This lets you filter Brocade switch events by severity level in Event Manager, as described in the following table.

NOTE: Events regarding firmware downloads are removed from the following table since the management server cannot be made aware of those events.
