Event Tab
The Event tab provides a description of the event:
Figure 162 More Detail Dialog Box Event Tab
The description provided by the main body of text depends upon the
event:
Monitor-based events: The main body of text describes what
attribute is monitored by the monitor that generated the event, details
the state of the monitor when the event was generated, describes what
has caused the problem and provides potential resolutions.
Clicking the blue underlined title of the monitor that generated the event
in the main body of text will bring the Live Graphs window for the item
the event was generated for to the front, re-launching it if necessary, and
will locate and select the monitor within that dialog box.
SNMP trap-based events: If 3Com Network Director was able to
interpret the SNMP trap when it was received then the main body of text
will provide a description of the cause of the trap and, if the trap
indicates an abnormal condition, provides potential resolutions.
