Alarm Configuration
Each log will hold only a finite number of entries, which is determined by the resources
available on the device; when the log is full, the oldest entries will be replaced by new
ones.
Advanced Alarm Configuration
The Basic Alarm Configuration window provides a quick and easy way to set up some
basic alarms for all of the interfaces on your SmartSwitch 6000 or Matrix E7 module.
However, if you prefer more control over the parameters of the alarms you set (as well as
their associated events and actions) and/or a wider array of choices for each variable, the
Advanced Alarm feature provides a powerful and flexible means for configuring alarms,
events, and actions to suit your particular networking needs.
