Huawei Quidway S5700 Series - Configuring the Alarmtable; Configuring the Prialarmtable

7.3.6 Configuring the AlarmTable
The RMON alarm management function monitors a specified trap variable identified by its OID
at a specified sampling interval. When the monitored variable exceeds the defined threshold, an
alarm is generated.
Context
The RMON alarm management is responsible for monitoring a specified alarm variable
(identified by OID) at a specified sampling interval. An alarm event occurs when the monitored
variable exceeds the defined threshold. Generally, the event is recorded in the log table, or
RMON sends a trap message to the NM Station.
If the events that correspond to the alarm upper limit and lower limit (event-entry1, event-
entry2) are not configured in the eventTable, an alarm is not generated even if the alarm condition
is satisfied. At this time, the status of alarm recording is undercreation and not VALID.
If an event corresponding to either the alarm upper limit or the alarm lower limit is configured,
an alarm is triggered once the alarm condition is satisfied. At this time, the status of alarm
recording is VALID. If an incorrect alarm variable is configured (for example, an inexistent OID
is specified), the status of alarm recording is undercreation and no alarm is generated.
