Context config>system>alarm-contact-input
Description This command stops tracking the state changes associated with the alarm contact input. The system
does not generate or clear the alarms for the alarm contact input, but if an alarm is generated, the system
clears the alarm when the shutdown command is executed. The no form of the command starts
tracking the state changes associated with the alarm contact input.
Default shutdown

Syntax trigger-alarm-msg message-string

Context config>system>alarm-contact-input
Description This command allows the user to configure a text message for use along with SNMP trap and log event
messages that are sent when the system generates an alarm. The system generates the default message
"Alarm Input Triggered" if no message is configured. The trigger-alarm-msg string is included in the
log event when the pin changes from the normal state.
Parameters message-string — a printable character string, up to 160 characters in length
System Threshold Alarm Commands
alarm
Syntax alarm rmon-alarm-id variable-oid oid-string interval seconds [sample-type] [startup-alarm
alarm-type] [rising-event rmon-event-id rising-threshold threshold] [falling-event rmon-
event-id falling threshold threshold] [owner owner-string]
no alarm rmon-alarm-id
Context config>system>thresholds>rmon
Description The alarm command configures an entry in the RMON-MIB alarmTable. The alarm command controls
the monitoring and triggering of threshold crossing events. In order for notification or logging of a
threshold crossing event to occur there must be at least one associated rmon>event configured.
The agent periodically takes statistical sample values from the MIB variable specified for monitoring
and compares them to thresholds that have been configured with the alarm command. The alarm
command configures the MIB variable to be monitored, the polling period (interval), sampling type
(absolute or delta value), and rising and falling threshold parameters. If a sample has crossed a
threshold value, the associated event is generated.
Use the no form of this command to remove an rmon-alarm-id from the configuration.
