Basic Alarm Conﬁguration 3-5

Alarm Conﬁguration

IF Number

Displays the interface number assigned to each available interface.

IF Type

Displays each interfaceÕs type: FDDI, Ethernet, Token Ring, or ATM. Note that

there is no type distinction between standard Ethernet and Fast Ethernet.

Status

Displays the current status of the selected alarm type for each interface: Enabled

or Disabled. Remember, this status refers only to the alarm type which is selected

at the top of the window; each of the other two alarm types can have different

states.

Log/Trap

Indicates whether or not each alarm has been conÞgured to create a silent log of

event occurrences and the alarms that triggered them, and whether or not each

alarm has been conÞgured to issue a trap in response to a rising or falling alarm

condition. Possible values are log, trap, log&trap, or none.

Polling Interval

Displays the amount of time, in days, hours, minutes, and seconds, over which

the selected alarm variable will be sampled. At the end of the interval, the sample

value will be compared to both the rising and falling thresholds (described

below). You can set any interval up to 24,855 days.

Rising Threshold

Displays the high threshold value set for the selected alarm variable. Values used

to compare to the thresholds are relative, or delta values (the difference between

the value counted at the end of the current interval and the value counted at the

end of the previous interval); be sure to set your thresholds accordingly.

Rising Action

Indicates whether or not a rising alarm occurrence will initiate any actions in

response to the alarm condition: Enable if bridging will be enabled at the selected

interface in response to a rising alarm, Disable if bridging will be disabled at the

selected interface in response to a rising alarm, and None if no actions have been

conÞgured for the selected alarm. Note that the Action Þelds will be unavailable

for devices conÞgured to operate in SecureFast switching mode.

Falling Threshold

Displays the low threshold value set for the selected alarm variable. Values used

to compare to the thresholds are relative, or delta values (the difference between

the value counted at the end of the current interval and the value counted at the

end of the previous interval); be sure to set your thresholds accordingly.
