Setting the switch status policy threshold values

Use the following procedure to set the switch status policy threshold values:

1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.

2. Enter the switchStatusPolicySet command.

The current switch status policy parameter values are displayed. You are prompted to enter
values for each DOWN and MARGINAL threshold parameter.

NOTE

By setting the DOWN and MARGINAL values for a parameter to 0,0 that parameter is no longer
used in setting the overall status for the switch.

3. Verify the threshold settings you have configured for each parameter.

Enter the switchStatusPolicyShow command to view your current switch status policy
configuration.
