Creating New Alerts; Configure Threshold Alerts Dialog Box - HP 316095-B21 Installation Manual

You can use the Threshold Alerts option on the Configure menu to configure the following:
• Name for the alert
• Enter of threshold for the alert (Rx, Tx, or either)
• Active or inactive state of the alert
• Threshold criteria:
• Percent traffic capacity utilized—The percent of the port's throughput capacity achieved by
the measured throughput. This setting constitutes the threshold value. For example a value of
50 means that the port's threshold is reached when throughput is 50% of capacity.
• Time interval during which throughput is measured and alert notification can occur.
• The maximum cumulative time that the throughput percentage threshold can be exceeded
during the set time interval before an alert is generated.
• Ports for which you are configuring threshold alerts
You can configure up to 16 alerts, and any number of alerts can be active at one time. Use the
following procedures to create a new threshold alert, or to modify, activate, deactivate, or delete an
