set alarm
Purpose
Configures device alarms and display current alarm settings. Device alarms are used to send emails or
SNMP traps when certain device events occur. These events include data patterns detected in the
serial stream.
To avoid false errors, configure alarms while alarms are disabled, by entering a “set alarm state=off”
command, then enable alarms after they are fully configured by entering “set alarm state=on”.
Required permissions
For products with two or more users, permissions must be set to “set permissions s-alarm=read” to
display current alarm settings, and to “set permissions s-alarm=rw” to display alarm settings and
configure alarms. See "set permissions" for details on setting user permissions for commands.
