Threshold Alert Log
This log provides details of threshold alert notifications. Besides the date and time
that the alert occurred, the log also displays details about the alert as configured
through the Configure Threshold Alerts option under the Configure menu on
the menu bar.
Figure 61: Threshold Alert Log
■ Date/Time—Date and time stamp for when the alert occurred.
■ Name—Name for the alert as configured through the Configure Threshold
Alerts dialog box.
■ Port—Port number where the alert occurred.
■ Type—The type of alert: transmit (Tx) or receive (Rx).
■ Utilization %—Percent usage of traffic capacity. This is the percent of the
port’s throughput capacity achieved by the measured throughput. This setting
constitutes the threshold value and is configured through the Configure
Threshold Alerts dialog box. For example, a value of 25 means that threshold
occurs when throughput reaches 25 percent of the port’s capacity.
■ Alert Time—The time that the utilization % must exist before an alert is
generated. This is set through the Configure Threshold Alerts dialog box.
■ Interval—The time interval during which the throughput is measured and an
alert can generate. This is set through the Configure Threshold Alerts dialog
box.
