2. Check the Enable All Port Threshold Alarms check box to enable
monitoring for all the individual alarm types that are enabled. The Enable All
Port Threshold Alarms check box is the master control for the individual
alarms. For example, the switch will monitor CRC errors only if both the
CRC Error Enable box and the Enable All Port Threshold Alarms check
box are checked.
3. Select an event type from the Port Threshold Alarm pull-down menu.
Choose from the following options:
CRC error monitoring
Decode error monitoring
ISL monitoring
Login monitoring
Logout monitoring
Loss of signal monitoring
4. Check the Enable box to make the alarm eligible for use.
5. Enter a value for the rising trigger. A rising trigger alarm is generated when
the event count per interval exceeds the rising trigger. The switch will not
generate another rising trigger alarm for that event until the count descends
below the falling trigger and rises again above the rising trigger. Consider
the example in Figure 4-9.
6. Enter a value for the falling trigger. A falling trigger alarm is generated when
the event count per interval descends below the falling trigger.
Note: The switch will down a port if a rising trigger alarm is not cleared
after three consecutive sample windows.
