The RMON Alarms screen displays the network alarms you have set. When the network experiences problems or events, such as rising and falling thresholds, then a network alarm will occur.
Alarm Entry. This identifies a specific alarm.
Counter Name. This is the selected MIB (Management Information Base) variable; for example, this can be the total number of octets received, the number of unicast packets transmitted, the number of pause frames received, the number of oversize packets.

Counter Value. This is the value of the selected MIB variable.

Rising Threshold. This is the rising counter value that triggers the rising threshold alarm.
Rising Event. This is how alarms are reported, by Log, Trap, or Log and Trap.
Falling Threshold. This is the falling counter value that triggers the falling threshold alarm.
Falling Event. This is how alarms are reported, by Log, Trap, or Log and Trap.
