To open the Alarm Manager dialog box:
- On the main menu of the Device Manager, select a port on the stack where you created an alarm.
- On the toolbar, click Alarm Manager.
| The Alarm Manager dialog box opens and displays the statistics for the chosen port. |

Variable
|
Name and type of alarm--indicated by the format:
alarmname.x where x=0 indicates a chassis alarm.
alarmname. where the user must specify the index. This will be 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
|
Select either absolute or delta.
|
Sample Interval
|
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.
|
|
Threshold Type
|
Rising Value
|
Falling Value
|
Value
|
When 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, generates a single event.
|
When 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, generates a single event.
|
Event Index
|
Index of the event entry that is used when 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.)
|
Index of the event entry that is used when 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.)
