Overview
35Director Element Manager User Guide
■ Active or inactive state of the alert.
■ Threshold criteria. This includes configuring the threshold as the percent of
port traffic capacity utilized (% utilization). You must also configure the time
interval during which the throughput is measured and the maximum
cumulative time that the throughput percentage threshold can be exceeded
during this time interval before an alert is generated.
Open Trunking
Click this option to enable the optional Open Trunking feature. This feature
monitors the average data rates of all traffic flows on ISLs (from a receive port to
a target domain), and periodically adjusts routing tables to reroute data flows from
congested links to lightly loaded links to optimize bandwidth use. The feature can
be installed through the Configure Feature Key dialog box. See “Configuring
Feature Key” on page 149 and “Open Trunking” on page 208” for more
information.
Export Configuration Report
Click this option to display the Export Configuration Report dialog box, which
enables you to specify a file name in which to save an ASCII text file containing
all current user-definable configuration options in a printable format. Note that
this file cannot be read back into the Element Manager in order to set
configuration parameters.
Enable Web Server
Click this option to place a check mark in the check box to enable the EWS
interface on the director. Click the option again to remove the check mark and
disable the EWS interface. When disabled, users at remote computers running the
client software cannot access the EWS interface.
Enable Telnet
Click this option to place a check mark in the check box to enable Telnet access to
the director. Click the option again to remove the check mark and disable telnet
access. When disabled, users at remote computers running client software cannot
access the director through Telnet to use the command line interface (CLI) or
perform other tasks.
