Chapter 21
System Events
FRX4000/6000 alarm, or event, messages can be displayed locally (see “ Displaying
Events ” on page 21-3), as well as sent to an async terminal, a serial or parallel printer,
another node, or any other device capable of interpreting event messages.
Events parameters are set in Node Defaults (
[A], [A], [C]
from the Main Menu). The
message file ERRMSG.TXT contains the format of events for message construction.
Configuration
To configure an FRX4000/6000 to collect events from other Cabletron frame relay
access devices (SmartSwitch 1800, FRM, FRX4000, FRX6000), do the following in
Node Defaults :
1. Set
Collecting Node
to
Y
. (The default setting is
N
, so the parameter may have to
be reconfigured.)
2. Configure
Max Congestion
and
Line Idle Timer
according to the guidelines in
Chapter 4.
3. Specify a
Collecting Node ID
and
Collecting Node Pwd
(Password). (Keeping the
default password is recommended.) These will be used by other nodes to place a
call.
4. If you want this node to route all events (including its own) to another device
(such as a printer), specify a
Primary Alarm Output ID
and
Primary Alarm Output
Pwd
(Password). (Keeping the default password is recommended.) Note that the
password serves no function if a printer is specified.
5. If you want this node to route all events to a second device as well as that defined
in step 3, specify a
Secondary Alarm Output ID
and
Secondary Alarm Output Pwd
(Password). (Keeping the default password is recommended.)
At each node that will send its events to the collecting node:
1. Set
Collecting Node
to
N
.
2. Specify the
Primary Alarm Output ID
and
Primary Alarm Output Pwd
(Password) to
match the
Collecting Node ID
and
Collecting Node Pwd
(Password) of the col-
lecting node.
3. In the Port record for the physical or logical X.25 port that will be used for inter-
node connections, configure
Maximum LAPB Window Size
to match the same
parameter in the collecting node.
