Alarm

This chapter shows you how to display the alarms, sets the severity level of an alarm(s) and where the system is to send the alarm(s) and set port alarm severity level threshold settings.

40.1 Alarm

The IES-612-51A monitors for equipment, DSL and system alarms and can report them via SNMP or syslog. You can specify the severity level of an alarm(s) and where the system is to send the alarm(s). You can also set the alarm severity threshold for recording alarms on an individual port(s). The system reports an alarm on a port if the alarm has a severity equal to or higher than the port’s threshold.
