Field | Description | |
---|---|---|
Variable |
Indicates the name and type of alarm. alarmname.x Here x=0 indicates a chassis alarm. alarmname. where the user must specify the index. This index is a card number for module-related alarms, an STG ID for spanning tree group alarms (the default STG is 1, other STG IDs are user-configured), or the Ether Statistics Control Index for RMON Stats alarms alarmname with no dot or index is a port-related alarm and results in display of the port selection tool. |

Sample Type |
Indicates the sample type. Available options are:
|
|
Interval | Indicates the time period (in seconds) over which the data is sampled and compared with the rising and falling thresholds. | |
Index | Uniquely identifies an entry in the alarm table. Each such entry defines a diagnostic sample at a particular interval for an object on the device. | |
RisingThreshold | Generates a single events if 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. | |
RisingEventIndex | Indicates the index of the event entry that is used after a rising threshold is crossed. The event entry identified by a particular value of this index is the same as identified by the same value of the event index object. (Generally, accept the default that is already filled in.) | |
RisingThreshold | Generates a single event if 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. | |
FallingEventIndex | Indicates the index of the event entry that is used after a falling threshold is crossed. The event entry identified by a particular value of this index is the same as identified by the same value of the event index object. (Generally, accept the default that is already filled in.) | |
Owner | Indicates the network management system that created this entry. |
