Parameter Description
Name Name of the alarm.
If there is an asterisk as first character it means it is a transient alarm.
For alarms that have multiple secondary info (e.g. Excessive Traffic
on Ethernet port has a secondary field that identifies which port),
these settings are global to all of the secondary cases.
State Indicates the current status of the alarm based on color
 Always grey (unlit) if the event is transient.
 Green if severity is Minor, Major, or Notify and the condition is not
SET or if the user has cleared (acknowledged it) even if it is SET.
 Blue if severity is Notify and the condition is SET and not
user-cleared
 Amber if severity is Minor and the condition is SET and not
user-cleared
 Red if severity is Major and the condition is SET and not
user-cleared
Clear Now This is a user-control to cause some of the alarm report mechanisms
to extinguish that particular alarm indication. These include
Dashboard > Alarms, Alarm summary at top of Web GUI, Physical
alarm connector, front panel Alarm LED, and Alarm information on
front-panel display.This is really just an acknowledgement of the
alarm, but of course has no ability to impact the underlying condition.
