Manage device alarms and alerts
The application provides many default alarms, including status alarms, monitor alarms, and
trap alarms. If an upper or lower threshold is exceeded, an alarm configuration generates an
alarm.
The application provides the following four severity levels for alarms:
• Critical (by default, red color indication)
• Major (by default, yellow color indication)
• Minor (by default, blue color indication)
• Info (by default, no color indication)
You can view and manage the current alarms and use optional alarm notification profiles to
specify criteria that enable the application to generate and send a notification email message
if an alarm occurs.
For more about how to view and manage the alarm history and how to add custom alarm
configurations that are based on existing configuration monitors, see the NMS300 Network
Management System Application User Manual.
View and manage current alarms
The Current Alarms table shows the active alarms for the entire network. You can
acknowledge alarms, display details about alarms, clear alarms, and export alarms.
To view and manage the current alarms:

NMS300 server.
For more information, see Log in to the application on page 17.
