Chapter 4
Event and Alarm Messages
What is in this Chapter
This chapter describes the events and alarms that Novell LANtern devices
generate. Events and alarms originate as unsolicited Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) messages known as traps. SPECTRUM
translates these traps as events and displays them in the Event Log. If
SPECTRUM maps an event to an alarm, the event will also appear in the
Alarm View as an alarm. (For more information on specific SNMP traps, refer
to RFC 1213, available through the Internet system. Also refer to the
Management Information Base (MIB) documentation for the Cabletron
proprietary devices.)
Events and Alarms
SPECTRUM supports the following events and alarms. The event message
files are in the following directory:
/SPECTRUM Directory Path/SG-Support/CsEvFormat
The alarm message files are in the following directory:
/SPECTRUM Directory Path/SG-Support/CsPCause
Table 4-1 lists the generic events and alarms for devices supported by the
Novell LANtern Network Monitor and NMM Management Module. A full
listing of events and alarms can be found in the directories listed above.
