Threshold Alert Log 4-11
Using Logs
• Utilization %
Percent usage of traffic capacity. This is the percent of the port’s
throughput capacity achieved by the measured throughput. This
setting constitutes the threshold value and is configured through
the Configure Threshold Alerts dialog box. For example, a value of
25 means that threshold occurs when throughput reaches 25
percent of the port’s capacity.
• Alert Time
The maximum cumulative time that the throughput threshold
percentage must exist before an alert is generated.
• Interval
The time interval during which the throughput is measured and
an alert can generate. This is set through the Configure Threshold
Alerts dialog box.
