Working With Fault Detection - HP 10Base-T Hub 24M Manual

Working With Fault Detection

The Fault Detection Area contains two list boxes that control fault detection
and response policy. The list boxes are:
Log Network Problems. Provides sensitivity threshold levels that deter-
mine when a network problem should generate an alert and send it to the
Alert Log.
Disable Problem Ports. Provides sensitivity threshold levels that deter-
mine when a network problem is critical enough to direct a port to be
disabled.
The sensitivity levels for both list boxes are:
Never
Low Sensitivity
Medium Sensitivity
High Sensitivity
Note that the Disable Port setting cannot have a higher sensitivity than the
one selected in the Log Network Problems list box. The mapping between the
two settings is shown in the following table:
