Table 51 Describes the fields on the Alarms tab (continued)

Field	Description
Value	The value of the statistic during the last sampling period. For example, if the sample
	type is deltaValue, this value is the difference between the samples at the beginning
	and end of the period. If the sample type is absoluteValue, this value is the sampled
	value at the end of the period. This is the value that is compared with the rising and
	falling thresholds. The value during the current sampling period is not made available
	until the period is completed and remains available until the next period completes.
StartupAlarm	The alarm that may be sent when this entry is first set to valid. If the first sample after
	this entry becomes valid is greater than or equal to the risingThreshold and
	alarmStartupAlarm is equal to risingAlarm(1) or risingOrFallingAlarm(3), then a single
	rising alarm is generated. If the first sample after this entry becomes valid is less than
	or equal to the fallingThreshold and alarmStartupAlarm is equal to fallingAlarm(2) or
	risingOrFallingAlarm(3), then a single falling alarm is generated.
RisingThreshold	A threshold for the sampled statistic. When the current sampled value is greater than or
	equal to this threshold, and the value at the last sampling interval was less than this
	threshold, a single event is generated. A single event is also generated if the first
	sample after this entry becomes valid is greater than or equal to this threshold and the
	associated alarmStartupAlarm is equal to risingAlarm(1) or risingOrFallingAlarm(3).
	After a rising event is generated, another such event is not generated until the sampled
	value falls below this threshold and reaches the alarmFallingThreshold.
RisingEventIndex	The index of the eventEntry that is used when a rising threshold is crossed.
	The eventEntry identified by a particular value of this index is the same as identified by
	the same value of the eventIndex object. If there is no corresponding entry in the
	eventTable, then no association exists. In particular, if this value is zero, no associated
	event is generated, because zero is not a valid event index.
FallingThreshold	A threshold for the sampled statistic. When the current sampled value is less than or
	equal to this threshold, and the value at the last sampling interval was greater than this
	threshold, a single event is generated. A single event is also generated if the first
	sample after this entry becomes valid is less than or equal to this threshold and the
	associated alarmStartupAlarm is equal to fallingAlarm(2) or risingOrFallingAlarm(3).
	After a falling event is generated, another such event is not generated until the sampled
	value rises above this threshold and reaches the alarmRisingThreshold.
FallingEventIndex	The index of the eventEntry that is used when a falling threshold is crossed.
	The eventEntry identified by a particular value of this index is the same as identified by
	the same value of the eventIndex object. If there is no corresponding entry in the
	eventTable, then no association exists. In particular, if this value is zero, no associated
	event is generated, because zero is not a valid event index.
Owner	The network management system which created this entry.
Status	The status of this alarm entry.
