Good day all

Our company is in the process of setting up SNMP messaging from our S8700's to IBM Tivoli Netview.

Without going into the ins and outs can you possibly let me know the order of importance concering alarms?

We want major alarms captured, but there is a question concerning which is more critical - minor or warnings?

Minor alarm monitoring will also flag up incorrect password attempts logging onto SAT, which we dont really want.
If we dont watch out for Minor alarms and look out for Warnings, am i likely to miss anything important?

Appreciate your help!
 
Ignore warnings. Otherwise you're going to go crazy chasing your tail. Minor alarms ... well, that's up to you. At a minimum I would have the PBX alarm via INADS on minors. Major's are a must.
