Working With Fault Detection
The Fault Detection screen contains a list box for setting fault detection and
response policy. You set the sensitivity level at which a network problem
should generate an alert and send it to the Alert Log.
The sensitivity levels for both list boxes are:
■ Never
■ Low Sensitivity
■ Medium Sensitivity
■ 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 no or few
problems.
■ Medium Sensitivity. (the default setting) 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 and to rarely or never disable a port
generating the alert. 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. Use this setting if you do not want network events displayed in the
Alert Log.
The Fault Detection Window also contains three Change Control Buttons.
They are:
■ Apply Changes. This button stores the settings you have selected for all
future sessions with the Browser Interface until you decide to change
them.
■ Clear Change. This button removes your settings and returns the settings
for both list boxes to the levels they were 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.
