Viewing all thresholds on a specific device
To view all thresholds assigned to a specific switch, complete the following steps.
1. Select Configure > Port Fencing.
The Port Fencing dialog box displays.
2. Right-click anywhere in the Ports table and select Expand.
3. Right-click the device for which you want to view threshold information and select Switch
Thresholds.
The Switch Thresholds dialog box displays with a list of all thresholds assigned to the selected
switch.
4. Review the Thresholds table.
5. Click Close on the Switch Thresholds dialog box.
6. Click OK on the Port Fencing dialog box.
Removing thresholds
When you assign a new threshold to an object, the threshold that was active on that object is
automatically removed. The Management application also allows you to remove thresholds from an
individual Fabric, Switch, or Switch Port, from all Fabrics, Switches, and Switch Ports at once, as
well as from the Threshold table.
Removing thresholds from individual objects
To remove thresholds from the All Fabrics object, an individual Fabric, Switch, or Switch Port,
complete the following steps.
1. Select Configure > Port Fencing.
The Port Fencing dialog box displays.
2. Select a threshold type from the Violation Type list.
3. Select the object with the threshold you want to remove in the Ports table.
4. Click the left arrow.
NOTE
If the selected object inherits a threshold assignment from an object higher in the tree, you
cannot remove the threshold. However, you may assign a different threshold directly to the
selected subordinate objects or change the assignment on the higher object.
A removed icon ( ) displays next to every instance where the threshold was removed from a
selected object and it does not inherits a threshold from higher in the tree.
If an inherited threshold replaces the removed threshold, an added icon ( ) displays next to
every instance where the threshold was replaced.
A directly assigned icon ( ) displays next to each object with an assigned threshold which
does not inherit a threshold from higher in the tree.
5. Click OK on the Port Fencing dialog box.
