Managing Alarms
Alarms indicate the occurrence of events of either importance or interest that are logged by the device.
There are two types of alarms:
• Active alarms signify states of operation that are not in accordance with normal operation. Examples include
links that should be up, but are not, or error rates that repeatedly exceed a certain threshold. These alarms are
continuously active and are only cleared when the problem that triggered the alarms is resolved.
• Passive alarms are a record of abnormal conditions that occurred in the past and do not affect th current
operation state of the device. Examples include authentication failures, Remote Network MONitoring (RMON)
MIB generated alarms, or error states that temporarily exceeded a certain threshold . These alarms can be
cleared from the list of alarms.
NOTE
For more information about RMON alarms, refer to
When either type of alarm occurs, a message appears in the top right corner of the user interface. If more than
one alarm has occurred, the message will indicate the number of alarms. Active alarms also trip the Critical
Failure Relay LED on the device. The message and the LED will remain active until the alarm is cleared.
NOTE
Alarms are volatile in nature. All alarms (active and passive) are cleared at startup.
