10. Setting Up NetScout Manager Plus for FrameSaver Devices

Adding SLV Alarms Using a Template

Once DLCIs have been discovered, SLV alarms should be configured and

assigned to each DLCI. OpenLane provides a template for configuring alarms.

DLCI alarms can be configured manually, but using the Paradyne alarm defaults

template greatly reduces configuration time.

The following alarms are configured for each DLCI included in the Paradyne MIB:

These alarms and current values can be found in $NSHOME/usr/slvtemplate.fct,

which is used as a starting point for loading new alarms. This file can be copied

and edited so the alarm threshold values match service level agreement values.

The copied .fct file can then be used to replicate alarm threshold values for all

DLCIs on the unit using the eztrap utility. All .fct files must be in $NSHOME/usr.

To configure alarms manually, see

Adding SLV Alarms Manually

on page 10-11.

NOTE:

Perl must be installed in your system to use the eztrap utility in the procedure

below. If you have an NT system, please install Perl before proceeding.

Procedure

1. Open a terminal window and go to

$NSHOME/usr

2. Type

eztrap -i

filename

.fct -o

agentname

.fct

agentname

and press Enter to

run the eztrap utility to create alarm threshold values across all DLCIs for the

copied .fct file.

The message

eztrap done

appears when the .fct file is transferred.

3. From the NetScout Manager Plus main window, with the FrameRelay and

Admin radio buttons still selected, click on the Config Manager icon to open

the Configuration Manager main window.

4. Edit any alarm values that need to be changed.

5. Select the Install button (down the center of the Configuration Manager main

window) to load alarms for the unit. This may take some time, so please be

patient.

See

Editing Alarms

on page 10-9 if any default settings need to be changed.
