Configuring RMON with the Java Device Manager 113Alarms tab fieldsField DescriptionIndex Uniquely identifies an entry in the alarm table. Each such entrydefines a diagnostic sample at a particular interval for an objecton the device.Interval The interval in seconds over which data is sampled andcompared with the rising and falling thresholds. When settingthis variable, note that in the case of deltaValue sampling, youshould set the interval short enough that the sampled variableis very unlikely to increase or decrease by a delta of more than2^31 - 1 during a single sampling interval.Variable The object identifier of the particular variable to be sampled. Onlyvariables that resolve to an ASN.1 primitive type of INTEGER(INTEGER, Counter, Gauge, or TimeTicks) may be sampled.Sample Type The method of sampling the selected variable and calculatingthe value to be compared against the thresholds. If the value ofthis object is absoluteValue(1), the value of the selected variablewill be compared directly with the thresholds at the end of thesampling interval. If the value of this object is deltaValue(2),the value of the selected variable at the last sample will besubtracted from the current value, and the difference comparedwith the thresholds.Value The value of the statistic during the last sampling period. Forexample, if the sample type is deltaValue, this value is thedifference between the samples at the beginning and end of theperiod. If the sample type is absoluteValue, this value is thesampled value at the end of the period. This is the value thatis compared with the rising and falling thresholds. The valueduring the current sampling period is not made available until theperiod is completed and remains available until the next periodis completed.StartupAlarm The alarm that may be sent when this entry is first set to Valid.If the first sample after this entry becomes valid is greaterthan or equal to the risingThreshold and alarmStartupAlarmis equal to risingAlarm(1) or risingOrFallingAlarm(3), then asingle rising alarm is generated. If the first sample after thisentry becomes valid is less than or equal to the fallingThresholdand alarmStartupAlarm is equal to fallingAlarm(2) orrisingOrFallingAlarm(3), then a single falling alarm is generated.Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 SeriesConfiguration - System MonitoringNN47200-505 03.01 Standard5.1 27 August 2007Copyright © 2005 - 2007, Nortel Networks.
