■

High Sensitivity.

This policy directs the switch to send all alerts to the

Alert Log. This setting is most effective on networks that have none or
few problems.

■

Medium Sensitivity.

This policy directs the switch to send alerts related

to network problems to the Alert Log. If you want to be notified of
problems which cause a noticeable slowdown on the network, use this
setting.

■

Low Sensitivity.

This policy directs the switch to send only the most

severe alerts to the Alert Log. This policy is most effective on a network
that normally has a lot of problems and you want to be informed of only
the most severe ones.

■

Never.

Disables the Alert Log and transmission of alerts (traps) to the

management server (in cases where a network management tool such as
HP TopTools for Hubs & Switches is in use). Use this option when you
don’t want to use the Alert Log.

The Fault Detection Window also contains three Change Control Buttons:

■

Apply Changes.

This button stores the settings you have selected for all

future sessions with the web browser interface until you decide to change
them.

■

Clear Changes.

This button removes your settings and returns the

settings for the list box to the level it was at in the last saved detection-
setting session.

■

Reset to Default Settings.

This button reverts the policy setting to

Medium Sensitivity for Log Network Problems.
