Index
This index number uniquely identiÞes each occurrence of 
a rising or falling event. Note that, since the alarm whose 
log is displayed in 
 experienced both rising and 
falling alarms, there are two sets of event indices: one 
which identiÞes each instance of the rising alarm, and 
one which identiÞes each instance of the falling alarm.
Time
Indicates the date and time of each event occurrence.
Description
Provides a detailed description of the condition which 
triggered the alarm, including whether it was a Rising or 
Falling alarm, the Value which triggered the alarm, and 
the conÞgured Threshold that was crossed.
Each log will hold only a Þnite number of entries, which is determined by the 
resources available on the device; when the log is full, the oldest entries will be 
replaced by new ones.
Advanced Alarm Configuration
The Basic Alarm ConÞguration window provides a quick and easy way to set up 
some basic alarms for all of the interfaces installed in your SmartSwitch 7000 
chassis. However, if you prefer more control over the parameters of the alarms 
you set (as well as their associated events and actions) and/or a wider array of 
choices for each variable, the Advanced Alarm feature provides a powerful and 
ßexible means for conÞguring alarms, events, and actions to suit your particular 
networking needs.
