Enabling RMON Alarms for Physical Components

To configure an RMON alarm for a physical component using Device Manager, follow these steps:

  1. Choose Admin > Events > Threshold Manager and click the Physical tab.
  2. Check the check box in the Select column for each variable to monitor.
  3. Enter the threshold value in the Value column.
  4. Enter the sampling period in seconds.
  5. Choose one of the following severity levels to assign to the alarm: Fatal(1), Warning(2), Critical(3), Error(4), Information(5).
  6. Click Create.
  7. Confirm the operation to define an alarm and a log event when the system prompts you to define a severity event.

If you do not confirm the operation, the system only defines a log event.

  1. Click More and select the Alarms tab from the Threshold Manager dialog box to verify the alarm you created. Close both dialog boxes.
