Modify Alarms—Configuring alarm severity levels
The Modify Alarms window (see figure 12 ) is where you can set the severity level each alarm condition gener-
ates and whether it can be a self-clearing condition.
Figure 12. Modify Alarms settings window
The following alarm items that can be configured to generate alarm conditions:
• Box: Over Temperature—An alarm will be triggered when the current temperature exceeds the temperature
threshold.
• Box: Power Supply 1–2 Fail—An alarm will be triggered if power supply 1 or 2 fails.
• Box: Main and Fallback Clock Fail—An alarm will be triggered when either the main or fallback clock fail.
• WAN 1–4 Yellow Alarm—When a WAN port detects a yellow alarm condition, the specific WAN alarm
will be set.
• WAN 1–4 Red Alarm—When a WAN port detects a red alarm condition, the specific WAN alarm will be set.
Each alarm item can be set for one of the following severity levels:
• Critical(4)
• Major(5)
• Minor(6)
• Informational(7)
• Ignore(8)
Note For maximum flexibility, defining the severity level of the alarm is left up to
the administrator. To set an alarm, click on the drop-down menu for the
desired alarm item, choose the new setting, then click on
