Figure 9-6. Alarm Example, Utilization

This simple example shows an alarm group consisting of one MAC Layer alarm for

Utilization. This alarm samples network traffic at five-second intervals. When the

absolute, rising value of 50 (percent utilization) is exceeded, Surveyor issues an

audible alarm and displays a message in Surveyor’s message window.
