Configuring IE 3000 Switch Alarms
This example shows how to set the FCS bit error rate for a port to 10
-10
.

Switch(config)#

Switch(config-if) #

Setting the FCS Error Hysteresis Threshold
The hysteresis setting prevents the toggle of an alarm when the actual bit error-rate fluctuates near the
configured rate. Use the
alarm facility fcs-hysteresis
global configuration command to set the FCS
error hysteresis threshold.
Note
The FCS hysteresis threshold is applied to all ports of an IE 3000 switch.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to set the FCS error hysteresis threshold for a
switch:
Use the
no alarm facility fcs-hysteresis
command to set the FCS error hysteresis threshold to its default
value.
Note
The
show running config
command displays any FCS error hysteresis that is not the default value.
This example shows how to set the FCS error hysteresis at 5 percent.
Switch(config)#
alarm facility fcs-hysteresis 5
Configuring Alarm Profiles
This section describes how to configure alarm profiles on your switch. It contains this configuration

Set the hysteresis percentage for the switch.
For
percentage
, the range is 1 to 10. The default value is 10 percent.
Step 3
