Alarms: Can be set to test data over any specified time interval,
and can monitor absolute or changing values (such as a statistical
counter reaching a specific value, or a statistic changing by a

Events: Defines the action to take when an alarm is triggered.
The response to an alarm can include recording the alarm in the

Alarm and Event Groups are used together to record important
events or immediately respond to critical network problems.
