Configuring Fabric Watch thresholds
3
4 : change custom unit 14 : change abovealarm
5 : change custom timebase 15 : change inBetween alarm
6 : change custom low 16 : apply threshold alarm changes
7 : change custom high 17 : cancel threshold alarm changes
8 : change custom buffer 18 : return to previous page
9 : apply threshold boundary changes
10 : cancel threshold boundary changes
Select choice => : (1..18) [18]7

NOTE
To ensure that your threshold setting configuration takes effect, remember to change the threshold
boundary level to Custom using option 3, and then apply the threshold boundary level settings using
option 16.
Table 12 describes the event behavior of each element in the Advanced Configuration menu.
The threshold boundary section of the Advanced Configuration menu includes the threshold
information for the selected area. It contains two columns, Default (the default settings column)
and Custom (the custom settings column), and indicates the current setting.
Fabric Watch displays the units of measurement (Unit), time base (Time base), low threshold (Low),
high threshold (High) and buffer size (BufSize) for each column (see Figure 15).
In Figure 15 a value of 80% is chosen as the custom high value for RXPerformance. The default
value is 100%.
