Conditions Causing Change of State
Icons are in a certain state based on one of several events, either the NMS
polling the Proxy Agent or the Proxy Agent sending traps to the NMS. The
following events can change a PBX icon’s state:
■
The NMS polls the Proxy Agent for the
g3healthMajor
object. If the value
of this object is greater than zero, then the icon's state is set to User2.
The default polling interval for the g3healthMajor object is five minutes.
■
The NMS polls the Proxy Agent for the
g3healthMinor
object. If the value
of this object is greater than zero and if g3healthMajor is equal to zero,
then the icon's state is set to Marginal. The default polling interval for
the g3healthMinor object is five minutes.
■
The NMS polls the Proxy Agent for the
g3healthWarning
object. If the
value of this object is greater than zero and value of the g3healthMajor
object and g3healthMinor objects are equal to zero, then the icon's state
is set to User1. The default polling interval for the g3healthWarning
object is five minutes.
■
If the value of g3healthMajor, g3healthMinor, and g3healthWarning is
equal to zero, the icon's state is set to Normal.
■
The Proxy Agent sends traps to the NMS. If the NMS receives a trap, it
sets the state of the appropriate icon to the severity of the alarm
represented by the trap, or it sets the state to the current state,
whichever is more severe. For example, if the NMS receives a minor
alarm trap and the current state of the icon is User1, it changes the PBX
icon’s state to Marginal. However, if the NMS receives a minor alarm
trap and the current state for that icon is User2, it does not change the
PBX icon’s state.
