SFP monitoring guidelines and default settings
The SFP class groups areas that monitor the physical aspects of SFPs. An SFP class alarm alerts you
to an SFP malfunction fault. SFP performance monitoring is not supported on VE_Ports.
When a port goes offline, the RXP and TXP area values of the SFP become zero. Brocade
recommends non-zero low thresholds for RXP and TXP; therefore, Fabric Watch stops monitoring
RXP and TXP parameters of the SFP once the port goes offline.
