Station Alarms Dialog Box
You can access this dialog box through the Station Alarms button in the
Token Ring Station Table view. The Station Alarms dialog box allows you to
read, display, and modify the alarm settings for a single station or list of
stations. The list displays the stations that were on the ring at the time the
dialog box was opened, however you can read and modify the settings to a
valid station that does not appear in the list and was added after opening the
view by entering its address in the Station field. The Station Alarms dialog
box provides the following information:

in this field to make it the current station.

Stations
The MAC addresses of all stations in the ring at the time the dialog box was
opened, except the current station, which is displayed in the Apply Settings to
