From the Alarm Type drop-down list, indicate whether the event will be triggered by the rising threshold,
Step 7
falling threshold, or both the rising and falling thresholds.
From the Sample Type drop-down list, choose either Relative or Absolute. Relative restricts the
Step 8
threshold to use the number of occurrences in the user-set sample period. Absolute sets the threshold to
use the total number of occurrences, regardless of time period.
Step 9 Type in an appropriate number of seconds in the Sample Period field.
Type in the appropriate number of occurrences in the Rising Threshold field.
Step 10
Note
Step 11 Enter the appropriate number of occurrences in the Falling Threshold field. In most cases a falling
threshold is set lower than the rising threshold.

POS Threshold Variables (MIBs) (continued)
For a rising type of alarm, the measured value must move from below the falling threshold to
above the rising threshold. For example, if a network is running below a rising threshold of
1000 collisions every 15 minutes and a problem causes 1001 collisions in 15 minutes, the excess
occurrences trigger an alarm.
A falling threshold is the counterpart to a rising threshold. When the number of occurrences is
above the rising threshold and then drops below a falling threshold, it resets the rising threshold.
For example, when the network problem that caused 1001 collisions in 15 minutes subsides and
creates only 799 collisions in 15 minutes, occurrences fall below a falling threshold of 800
collisions. This resets the rising threshold so that if network collisions again spike over a 1000
per 15-minute period, an event again triggers when the rising threshold is crossed. An event is
triggered only the first time a rising threshold is exceeded (otherwise, a single network problem
might cause a rising threshold to be exceeded multiple times and cause a flood of events).
