Configuring IE 3000 Switch Alarms
Note Before you use the notifies command to send alarm traps to an SNMP server, you must first set up the
SNMP server by using the snmp-server enable traps alarms global configuration command. See the
“Enabling SNMP Traps” section on page 3-11.
Use the no alarm facility temperature secondary to disable the secondary temperature alarm.
This example sets the secondary temperature alarm to the minor relay, with a high temperature threshold
value of 113
o
F (45
o
C). All alarms and traps associated with this alarm are sent to a syslog server and an
SNMP server.
Switch(config) # alarm facility temperature secondary high 45
Switch(config) # alarm facility temperature secondary relay minor
Switch(config) # alarm facility temperature secondary syslog
Switch(config) # alarm facility temperature secondary notifies
This example sets the first (primary) temperature alarm to the major relay. All alarms and traps
associated with this alarm are sent to a syslog server.
Switch(config) # alarm facility temperature primary syslog
Switch(config) # alarm facility temperature primary relay major
Configuring the FCS Bit Error Rate Alarm
This section describes how to configure the FCS bit-error rate alarm on your switch:
• Setting the FCS Error Threshold, page 3-8
• Setting the FCS Error Hysteresis Threshold, page 3-9
Setting the FCS Error Threshold
The switch generates an FCS bit error-rate alarm when the actual rate is close to the configured rate. Use
the fcs-threshold interface configuration command to set the FCS error threshold.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to set the bit error-rate value for a port:
Use the no fcs-threshold interface configuration command to return to the default FCS threshold value.
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface interface-id Enter the interface to be configured, and enter interface configuration mode.
Step 3
fcs-threshold value Set the FCS error rate.
For value, the range is 6 to 11 to set a maximum bit error rate of 10
-6
to 10
-11
.
By default, the FCS bit error rate is 10
-8
.
Step 4
end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 5
show fcs-threshold Verify the setting.
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
