Events and Alarms Troubleshooting
Note Depending on the activity of your SmartSwitch 6500, the appearance of events on
the SmartSwitch 6500 may be too frequent to use the SmartSwitch 6500 console
comfortably. It is recommended that you turn on the automatic display of events
only when troubleshooting.
Use the
show alarms
command to view a list of the currently logged alarms. For example,
Smart6500 # show alarms
Index(ALL) :
