Triggers and Alerts

AirWave monitors key aspects of wireless LAN performance. When certain conditions or parameters arise that are

outside of normal bounds, AirWave generates (or triggers) alerts that enable you to address problems, often before users

have a chance to report them.

All triggers include an option to configure a Severity Level. This level is tied to the Severe Alert Threshold, which is

configured on the Home > User Info page. This threshold value specifies whether triggers categorized as Critical, Major,

Minor, Warning, or Normal will result in a Severe Alert. If a trigger is defined to result in a Critical alert, and if the

Severe Alert Threshold is defined as Major, then the list of Severe Alerts will include all Major and Critical alerts.

Similarly, if this value is set to Normal, which is the lowest threshold, then the list of Severe Alerts will include all

alerts.

Refer to "Creating New Triggers" on page 220 to configure triggers.

Creating New Triggers

Perform the following steps to create and configure one or more new triggers. These steps define settings that are

required for any type of trigger.

1. To create a new trigger, click Add New Trigger from the System > Triggers page. The page that appears is

illustrated in Figure 129.
