Creating an event

To create an event:

1. In the RmonAlarms dialog box Events tab, click Insert.

The RmonAlarms, Insert Events dialog box opens.

2. In the Description field, type a name for the event.
3. Select the type of event you want.

The default setting is log-and-trap. You can set the event type to log to save memory or to snmp-trap to reduce traffic from the switch or for better CPU utilization.

If you select snmp-trap or log-and-trap, you must set trap receivers.

4. Click Insert.

The new event is shown in the Events tab.
