Alarms and Traps
Setting Alarms
5967–9446 447
When the alarm triggers, the agent logs the event, then sends a trap to
your management station, which executes a script that notifies you. In
addition, the agent stops capturing packets, allowing you to use Protocol
Analyzer to examine the traffic on the network in the vicinity of the
broadcast storm.
When the alarm rearms, the agent logs the event.
