When an interface or modem fails, SNMP traps the error message generated by the failure. To view the status of failed modems or interfaces, click Monitor==>Alarms.
Select a modem and use the Reset Counters button to recounting alarms in PMVision only, not on the PortMaster. Use Restore Counters to restore these counters to their real-time values.
To view Alarms simultaneously with other options in the PMVision tree, click New Window.
