Indicates a specific alarm
Displays the interface for which RMON statistics are displayed. The possible field values are:
•Port, displays the selected port of the RMON statistics.
•LAG, displays the RMON statistics for the selected LAG.
Displays the selected MIB variable
Defines the sampling method for the selected variable and comparing the value against the thresholds. The possible field values are:
•Absolute, compares the values directly with the thresholds at the end of the sampling interval.
•Delta, subtracts the last sampled value from the current value. The difference in the values is compared to the threshold.
Displays the rising counter value that triggers the rising threshold alarm. The rising threshold is presented on top of the graph bars. Each monitored variable is designated a color
Displays the mechanism in which the alarms are reported. The possible field values are:
•LOG. Indicates there is not a saving mechanism for either the device or in the management system. If the device is not reset, the entry remains in the Log Table.
•TRAP, indicates that an SNMP trap is generated, and sent via the Trap mechanism. The Trap can also be saved using the Trap mechanism.
•Both, indicates that both the Log and Trap mechanism are used to report alarms.
Displays the falling counter value that triggers the falling threshold alarm. The falling threshold is graphically presented on top of the graph bars. Each monitored variable is designated a color.

Displays the trigger that activates the alarm generation. Rising is defined by crossing the threshold from a
