Active Alarms Information

The View Alarms page displays the following types of alarms. You can set the conditions that trigger alarms on an interface. Chassis and system alarm conditions are preset.

• Interface alarms—Indicate a problem in the state of the physical links on a fixed or installed Physical Interface Module (PIM), such as a link failure or a missing signal. To enable interface alarms, you must configure them.
• Chassis alarms—Indicate a failure on the routing platform or one of its component, such as a power supply failure, excessive component temperature, or media failure. Chassis alarms are preset and cannot be modified.
• System alarms—Indicate a missing rescue configuration or software license, where valid. System alarms are preset and cannot be modified.
