Alarm Categories
Alarm categories are arbitrary collections of alarms that you can define as appropriate to your needs,
and then assign to specific alarm definitions. For example, you might use categories to designate alarms
from individual buildings, floors, or workgroups. An ISP might define categories for alarms from a
specific customer’s equipment.
By default, all alarms are assigned to the category named Default. This category can be renamed, but it
cannot be deleted.

enter the new category into the Category List.
