Thresholds Configuration

In this section, the Thersholds configuration is described.

 

Threshold Sets consist of numerous event detection that could be configured and associated with different channels. These events trigger an alarm whenever there is an error in the system (i.e.) when the desired action does not occur within the specified Threshold value.

Generally, the Threshold Sets are in a Default set. It is recommended to create a new set that is identical to the Default set and change this new set to match the characteristics of the monitored channels when applicable. The below options are available while creating new Threshold Sets.

You can create new Threshold Sets by clicking on add or copy the default set by clicking on copy and save.

All the events specified in of MCM9000 are present in the MCS Threshold Sets. Use the search option if you want to search a specific event (for example, the OTT events with Label HLS).

In MCS, all the Tables all on the same page unlike MCM9000 that are seggregated into tables.
