Configuring Port Threshold Alarms

The switch can monitor a set of port errors and generates alarms based on user-defined sample windows and thresholds. These port errors include the following:

„Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) errors

„Decode errors

„ISL connection count

„Device login errors

„Device logout errors

„Loss-of-signal errors

You make changes to the port threshold alarms by modifying the switch configuration as described in “Modify a Switch Configuration” on page 5-12. Refer to Table 13-18for a description of the port alarm threshold parameters.

The switch will down a port if an alarm condition is not cleared within three consecutive sampling windows (by default 30 seconds). Reset the port to bring it back online. An alarm is cleared when the threshold monitoring detects that the error rate has fallen below the falling trigger.
