Alarm Manager Functions

The Alarm Manager feature does not provide any feature-specific menus. The four standard menus are
available (EPICenter, Display, Tools and Help) but only the EPICenter and Help menus have
commands available. Right-click pop-up menus are not available in this feature.
For information on the standard EPICenter menu functions, see

Predefined Alarms

For convenience, the EPICenter Alarm System provides a number of predefined alarms. These alarms
are enabled by default and are active as soon as the EPICenter server starts up. These include the
following alarms:
Authentication failure (SNMP MIB-2 trap): This alarm indicates that an attempt has been made to
●
access the device using an invalid community string or SNMPv3 credentials.
Config Download Failed (EPICenter event, indicates failure in an download initiated by EPICenter):
●
This alarm indicates that a configuration download from EPICenter to the device has failed to
complete.
Config Upload Failed (EPICenter event, indicates failure in an upload initiated by EPICenter): This
●
alarm indicates that a configuration upload from the device to EPICenter has failed to complete.
Device reboot (EPICenter event): This alarm indicates the device has rebooted.
●
Device Warning from EPICenter (EPICenter event): This alarm indicates that EPICenter has
●
detected a problem.
EAPS State Change-Error (EPICenter event): EPICenter has detected that an EAPS Master node
●
status has changed from Complete to Failed.
EAPS State Change-Warning (EPICenter event): EPICenter has detected that an EAPS Master node
●
status has changed from Failed to Complete.
ESRP State Changed (Extreme proprietary trap): This alarm indicates that an ESRP state change has
●
occurred on the device.
Fan failure (EPICenter event): This alarm indicates a cooling fan in the device has failed. This alarm
●
occurs only once, when the fan status transitions from OK to failed. For continuous notification of
this problem (until resolved) use the Extreme proprietary trap for fan failure, rather than the
EPICenter trap.
Health Check Failed (Extreme proprietary trap): This alarm indicates that the health check has failed
●
for the device.
Invalid login (Extreme proprietary trap): This alarm indicates that a login to the device has been
●
attempted with an invalid user name or password.
Overheat (EPICenter event): This alarm indicates that EPICenter has detected an overheat condition
●
in the device. This alarm occurs only once, when the temperature reaches the overheat threshold. For
continuous notification of this problem (until resolved) use the Extreme proprietary trap for
overheat, rather than the EPICenter trap.
Power Supply Failed (EPICenter event): This alarm indicates a power supply in the device has
●
failed. This alarm occurs only once, when the power supply status transitions from OK to failed. For
continuous notification of this problem (until resolved) use the Extreme proprietary SNMP trap for
power supply failure, rather than the EPICenter trap.
Rogue Access Point Found (EPICenter event): This alarm indicates that an access point has been
●
detected that is not in the Safe list.
