Alert Types and Detailed Views

As of June, 2007, the web browser interface generates the following alert
types:
• Auto Partition
• Backup Transition
• Excessive broadcasts
• Excessive CRC/alignment errors
• Excessive jabbering
• Excessive late collisions
• First Time Install
• Full-Duplex Mismatch
• Half-Duplex Mismatch
When troubleshooting the sources of alerts, it may be helpful to check the
switch's Port Status and Port Counter windows, or use the CLI or menu
interface to view the switch's Event Log.
When you double click on an Alert Entry, the web browser interface displays
a separate window showing information about the event. This view includes
a description of the problem and a possible solution. It also provides three
management buttons:
■ Acknowledge Event – removes the New symbol from the log entry
■ Delete Event – removes the alert from the Alert Log
Cancel – closes the detail view with no change to the status of the alert
■
and returns you to the Overview screen.
For example, figure 5-14 shows a sample detail view describing an Excessive
CRC/Alignment Error alert.
