Event Group Configuration
The Event group controls the generation and notification of events from the
CenturyStack. Each entry in the event Table describes the parameters of the
event that can be triggered. Each event entry is fired by an associated
condition located elsewhere in the MIB. An event entry may also be
associated with a function elsewhere in the MIB that will be executed when
the event is generated. For example, a channel may be turned on or off by the
firing of an event. Each event Entry may optionally specify that a log entry
be created on its behalf whenever the event occurs.
Each entry may also specify that notification should occur by way of SNMP
trap messages. In this case, the community for the trap message is given in
the associated event Community. The specific trap fields of the trap are
determined by the condition that triggered the event. Two traps are defined:
rising Alarm and falling Alarm. If the event Table is triggered by a condition
specified elsewhere, the enterprise and specific trap fields must be specified
for traps generated for that condition.
Users can create up to 32 Event Entries.
