Setting Alarm Thresholds
Thresholds determine when an alarm reports that a counter has exceeded a
certain value. You can set alarm thresholds through the network manually,
and choose any value for them that is appropriate for your application. The
network management software monitors the counters and thresholds
continually during normal operations to provide data for later calibration.
