Alarms: Selection

The switch can be configured to send three types of immediate alerts — e-mails, SNMP traps or automatic power cycling — in response to three alarm-triggering events: blue screen, no video or NumLock test failure from a remote computer. This feature should be used in conjunction with the auto-scan function so that the switch will help carry on a constant surveillance on the “health” conditions of your connected servers. Note: This screen is where you can select which action the switch is to perform when it detects an event. This is not the place where you can specify how the action is to be implemented. For this, refer to the SNMP options above.

No Video

This alarm could result from power failure or an unsupported video mode; e.g., an out-of-range video mode or, most often, a video mode not yet set up in the video database. If you want the switch to respond immediately to this sort of event, select “Enable Alarm” and which action or actions you want as a response: restart the computer, send an e-mail or send an SNMP trap.
