Alarms and SNMP Monitoring

Faults and alarms from the 8900NET module can be reported to a Frame
Health Alarm connector on the rear of the frame (see

) and/or to a networked SNMP monitoring system (see

8900NET Module Alarm DIP Switches

Two eight-position DIP switches (S1 and S2) enable or disable the overall
fault and alarm reporting functions of the module and control the variable
fan speed option (fan speed is controlled by temperature or set at max-
imum). The current status of these settings are reported on the 8900NET
Status web page (see

8900NET Module Status Web Page

on page 33

). Dis-

abling (or filtering) of fault reports can also be useful in isolating problems
in the frame.

The Frame Health Alarm on the rear of the Gecko 8900 Video and Audio
Series frames responds directly to the settings of the DIP switches. Some
8900 modules provide enabling/disabling of Frame reporting for Slot
Status on the Slot Config web page of the 8900 module. Refer to

8900

Module Slot Configuration

on page 38

for details.

Refer to

the module.
