c.
Select both Log and Trap to both log the event occurrence and generate 
the traps. 
If you select neither option, the event’s occurrences will neither be logged nor 
generate traps; unless the event includes an action or a series of actions, this 
effectively disables the event (since there will be no indication that it has been 
triggered).

For Cabletron devices which support the proprietary Actions MIB, an 
 
button will appear in the Create/Edit Events window; using this feature, you 
can configure an SNMP SET or series of SETs that will be performed 
automatically when the event is triggered. See Adding Actions to an Event
below, for more information.

you may configure additional new events or modify existing ones; remember, 
you can double-click on any event in the Events Watch list in the main

Adding Actions to an Event
For Cabletron devices which support the proprietary Actions MIB, selecting the

NOTES
In order for the trap selection to work properly, your 9H42x-xx
 
must be configured to send 
traps to the management station. This is accomplished via local management; consult 
your device hardware manual for more information.
If you are monitoring a variable you consider to be critical, we do not recommend that you 
select Trap as the only event response; if a trap is lost due to a collision or other 
transmission problem, it will not be re-sent.
NOTE
The Event Type field in the Advanced Alarm/Event List window will display a value of 
“none” if neither the Log nor the Trap response has been selected; note, however, that this 
field does not indicate whether or not an event has been configured to perform an SNMP 
SET or series of SETs via the Actions MIB.
