Management Card and MasterSwitch Events
Event generation
The Management Card and MasterSwitch both generate events, which
are logged in the event log.
Any event of either type generates a unique code, which you can use in
applications to identify the event.
To use SNMP traps for event notifications, you must first identify the trap
receivers (up to four) by their specific IP addresses. See Trap receivers
on page 30 .
Severity levels
defined
Note: All MasterSwitch events and some Management Card events
have a severity level.
For information about how severity levels define the actions associated
with events, see
Actions Option (Web Interface only) on page 29 .
