1. Identify additional traps
(acIDSThresholdCrossNotification)
that were sent alongside this
Intrusion Detection System (IDS)
alarm.
2. Locate the remote hosts (IP
addresses) that are specified in
the traps.
3. Examine the behavior of those
hosts (with regard to the reason
specified in the alarm), and
attempt to fix incorrect operation.
4. If necessary, change the con-
figured thresholds in the IDS Rule
table under the IDS Policy table.
SNMP Event Traps (Notifications)
This subsection details traps (events) that are not alarms. These traps are sent with the
severity varbind value of ‘Indeterminate’. These traps don’t ‘Clear’ and they don’t appear in
the Alarm History table or Active table. The only log trap that does send 'Clear' is acPer-
formanceMonitoringThresholdCrossing.
