Configuration - Fault Detection

The automatic fault detection feature protects your network from failing
because of problems such as network loops, defective cables, transceivers
and faulty network interface cards. The Fault Detection page lets you set the
sensitivity and actions that occur when a fault is detected on a port in your
network. For hubs, you can set the sensitivity for logging network problems
and disabling ports. The sensitivity settings are:

High Sensitivity

: the device will act when a network problem of any

severity occurs. Network problems are automatically detected and entered
into the Alert Log.

Medium Sensitivity

: the device will act when serious network problems

occur.

Low Sensitivity

: the device will act only when severe network problems

occur. These are problems that may bring the network down.

Never

: The device will never take any actions regardless of the severity of

the problem.
