The following table describes the Events tab fields.

Field Description
Index This index uniquely identifies an entry in the event table. Each entry defines one event that is to be generated after the appropriate conditions occur.
Description Specifies whether the event is a rising or falling event.
Type The type of notification that the Device Manager provides about this event. In the case of log, an entry is made in the log table for each event. In the case of trap, an SNMP trap is sent to one or more management stations. Possible notifications follow:
  • none
  • log
  • trap
  • log-and-trap
Community The SNMP community string acts as a password. Only those management applications with this community string can view the alarms.
LastTimeSent The value of sysUpTime at the time this event entry last generated an event. If this entry has not generated events, this value is zero.
Owner If traps are specified to be sent to the owner the name of the machine receives alarm traps.
Status Normally valid. A not-valid field indicates that an SNMP agent other than the Device Manager has tried to modify an RMON parameter or that network conditions have corrupted an SNMP packet sent by the Device Manager. The status temporarily appears as "under creation" and then the status becomes either "valid" or the field is deleted.
