To provide the most information on network problems in the Alert Log, the
recommended sensitivity level for Log Network Problems is High Sensitivity. The
Fault Detection settings are:
■ High Sensitivity. This policy directs the switch to send all alerts to the
Alert Log. This setting is most effective on networks that have none or
few problems.
■ Medium Sensitivity. This policy directs the switch to send alerts related
to network problems to the Alert Log. If you want to be notified of
problems which cause a noticeable slowdown on the network, use this
setting.
■ Low Sensitivity. This policy directs the switch to send only the most
severe alerts to the Alert Log. This policy is most effective on a network
that normally has a lot of problems and you want to be informed of only
the most severe ones.
■ Never. Disables the Alert Log and transmission of alerts (traps) to the
management server (in cases where a network management tool such as
HP TopTools for Hubs & Switches is in use). Use this option when you
don’t want to use the Alert Log.
The Fault Detection Window also contains three Change Control Buttons:
■ Apply Changes. This button stores the settings you have selected for all
future sessions with the web browser interface until you decide to change
them.
■ Clear Changes. This button removes your settings and returns the
settings for the list box to the level it was at in the last saved detection-
setting session.
■ Reset to Default Settings. This button reverts the policy setting to
Medium Sensitivity for Log Network Problems.
