Alarms and Events
Method The method used for monitoring the variable. Possible
options are:
• Rate @ Interval - The Alarm uses the counter’s rate
in the last interval.
• Total - The Alarm uses the absolute number of the
counter from the time the device was last reset.
* Note: The Alarms and Events tool can only
configure Alarms using the
Rate @ Interval method. To configure
Alarms based on the absolute number of
packets, use the CLI (Command Line
Interface) or a third-party application.

a Rising Event is not generated.
