Advanced configuration options
To customize Fabric Watch monitoring to suit your environment, use the advanced configuration
options, which are listed in Table 21.
Table 21 describes the customization options displayed at the end of the Advanced Configuration
menu. With the exception of the last option, which exits advanced configuration mode, each option
has similar behavior. For each option, one or two lines will appear, prompting you to accept the new
setting information, and, after the information has been provided, the entire screen will refresh to
display the updated information.
