Field Description
Variable Name and type of alarm—indicated by the format:
alarmname.x where x=0 indicates a chassis alarm.
alarmname. where the user must specify the index. This will be a card number for
module-related alarms, an STG ID for spanning tree group alarms (the default STG
is 1, other STG IDs are user-configured), or the Ether Statistics Control Index for
RMON Stats alarms
alarmname with no dot or index is a port-related alarm and results in display of the
port selection tool.
Sample Type Can be either absolute or delta.
For more information about sample types, refer to “Creating alarms” on page 133.
Sample Interval Time period (in seconds) over which the data is sampled and compared with the rising
and falling thresholds.
Index Uniquely identifies an entry in the alarm table. Each such entry defines a diagnostic
sample at a particular interval for an object on the device.
Threshold Type Rising Value Falling Value
Value When the current sampled value is
greater than or equal to this threshold,
and the value at the last sampling
interval was less than this threshold,
generates a single event.
When the current sampled value is less than
or equal to this threshold, and the value at
the last sampling interval was greater than
this threshold, generates a single event.
Event Index Index of the event entry that is used
when a rising threshold is crossed. The
event entry identified by a particular
value of this index is the same as
identified by the same value of the
event index object. (Generally, accept
the default that is already filled in.)
Index of the event entry that is used when a
falling threshold is crossed. The event entry
identified by a particular value of this index
is the same as identified by the same value
of the event index object. (Generally, accept
the default that is already filled in.)
